Speaker 1 (00:00):
But aren't you fellows ever positive only about doomsday?
Speaker 2 (00:03):
What could be worse than disappointing a little girl disappointing
a big girl.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
I have other ways of securing your cooperation. Sorry, miss
I was giving myself an oil job.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
When was it just azumbly as we've seen attitude to
it since we gave to a few low cabbages an
intellectual carrot.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
That mind boggles you see you see your stupid lives.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Stupid, stupid, I said Santa Claus. Long enough, we will.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Bring him to Mars.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
I've been afraid a lot of times in my life,
but I didn't.
Speaker 4 (00:37):
Know the real meaning of fear until until I kiss
peck me.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
One thing will be clear. It's not from man to
interfere in the ways of God's life.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Evening, everybody, and welcome to Earth Versus Soup, Episode two
seventy four. I'm Marion Pollier.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
And I'm Darling.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Last time, we actually watched a movie called Assignment Terror
from nineteen seventy and it was weird. Right. There were
multiple monsters. It was basically Monster Squad as though it
was filmed from Spain, Italy and Germany West Germany, and
it started a guy named Paul Nashy, and we said
(01:34):
we have to actually watch more of his films. We
found one and it's called Where Wolf Versus the Vampire
Woman nineteen seventy one.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
It's only Spanish and West German, No Italian, no Italian,
eighty six minutes La Noche dell.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Well Walpurgis, Valpurgis or something. Well, well, pose, Okay, we
have a couple things that we need to say about
the quality of the film finished. Go ahead, go ahead.
There's tons of names, right.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
All right, Shadow of the the Werewolf is the UK name.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
The Canadian name I believe is Werewolf Shadow.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Okay, so we have many names. Let's talk about the quality.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
We couldn't find a good one.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
We could not find a good quality version of this movie.
And that's looking on YouTube, to be Amazon. We even
bought a copy from Amazon. We decided that we're going
to cover it because I think this movie is worthy
of talking about.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Somebody can get a good, good copy, because we get
pictures of those same things.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Yeah, yeah, these are clear. Yeah, We've seen footage on YouTube,
like clips of the movie that are crystal clear, properly lit.
We know a version of this exists out there that
is actually high quality. We haven't found it. The versions
that we were able to find were very dark, to
(03:19):
the extent that it was very difficult to see in
certain scenes. With that said, the sound was fine and
we generally could follow everything that was going on except
that it was dark, except it was.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Dark when they were doing things, or we did not
see things clearly.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
So we're not going to judge the movie based on
us not being able to see it. It's not fair
to that to the movie to do that. And with
that said, I think you'll probably see that we still
really enjoyed this movie. I've never seen it before. This
(04:00):
is very different from Assignment Terror, where Assignment Terror's plot
is all over the place, right, it was just complete
nonsense all over the place. I still recommended it, even
though I gave it like a four out of ten.
I think this movie actually has a plot, a pretty
complex plot that has payoffs in it, and for an
(04:21):
eighty six minute long movie, Darlene, I have two and
a half pages of notes for it.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Which is what I do because when it got to
when I it got to the blackout things, I was like, uh.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
What okay? If I have two pages of notes. You
you normally have less than a page. Right, you have
a page and a half on this. You have two pages.
You're trying to show people on an audio podcast.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
You know I'm showing you.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Okay, Well, there is a lot of things here that
we took notes on, which means I think we were
pretty well engaged with the movies. So let's talk about
the plot. Actually, hold on, let's talk about the actors
and actresses. Okay, So we have Paul Nashy as Waldemar Doninski. Okay,
he is a returning he's he's our returning hero. Okay.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
He is the werewolf.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
He is the werewolf in all of these movies. He
is a returning character of a were wolf. And it's
not truly a series of movies because there's not really
a lot of connective tissue between them. He's just sort
of type cast, right.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
No, it's the same character. Yes, and this is supposed
to take place after.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
After the events of Assignments Terror.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
No, it's before. This is before.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Okay, it makes no difference if it is or not.
I didn't see any tissue.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
It's like having some of these Sherlock Holmes didn't make,
didn't connect the tissue and stuff.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I would say that it's more like a Flash Gordon
serial where there's there is supposed to be connections, but
there really isn't. It's just sort of a new thing
every time. And that's not dissing this movie. That's not
actually shitting on this movie.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
It's not a new thing every time. I don't think
it's a.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
We have Paul Nashy. We have an actress named Gabby
Fuchs who plays Elvira. That's exactly how I read her
name is Elvira. I think they pronounce it differently. That's
like Elvira or something like that.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
The syllable goes a little different.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
She's actually a fairly I won't say she's fairly well known,
but she's been in a few things over the years,
like Mark of the Devil. And then we have a
woman named Barbara Kappel who plays Genevieve in this and
she hasn't been in a lot. So basically, what I'm
trying to say is we do get Patty Shepherd, who
(06:57):
was in the last film and a few films that
we've actually watch Patty Shepherd, but she's she's I can't
say that she's in a bit part, she isn't You
might remember Patty Shepherd from Assignment Terror as the woman
who screwed off after being attacked by the werewolf and
left her boyfriend for dad. You just drove off in
the car and said, screw this, I'm out. And we
(07:20):
laughed and laughed and laughed about that, because I totally
get it, ma'am, thank you. She has a bit part
in this, but a lot of what she did instigates
the plot of the film. So if I keep talking
about just random people, a lot of these people just
really you won't know unless you watch an Operation Terror
(07:40):
and Assignment Terry. I'm sorry Assignent Terror from last time.
But anyway, is there anything else we want to talk
about before we get into the plot?
Speaker 1 (07:52):
I probably will talk about some things that are in
the middle of it.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Okay, okay, so we have we immediately begin with a
bad day for night shot. Even with the movie that
we watched being incredibly dark, we could tell this was
a bad day for night shot in that the sky
was still blue, people were casting shadows.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Even though we could not see anything of the people.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Yeah, so let's just drop talking about how the dark
was there, because I'm just yeah, the inspector. There's an inspector.
They want to post mortem something about a werewolf superstition. Locally,
they're kind of babbling to each other, so there's, uh,
there's a mortician there. They uncover the body and oh
my god, it's Waldemore than Inski.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
When they are outside, there was cat noises.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Oh yeah, there's a because our cats started freaking out
too hearing it. But anyway, they go inside. It's Waldemar Thaninski.
He's on the table and on his chest there's a
scar in the shape of a pentagram, right, just like
there was in the in before. And there's like two
silver bowls through his chest. So you think, okay, wait
(09:03):
a second, if this does follow assignment terror, it doesn't
because he did get shot in his chest twice, right,
he should be dead according to the rules that they
presented an assignment terror. He's dead dead, he was shot.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
There are many of his films after assignment.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
No, that's what I'm saying. And and now a new
rule is introduced about were wolves that the only way
he can die is as is is if the bullets
remain in his body. So now this raises a further
question about were wolf rules that if he's dead, his
(09:46):
body will rot. What happens when the body rots enough
that the bullets fall out, he comes back. He comes back.
You cannot kill this guy unless.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
You're so it goes back to what was it? Uh?
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
I know versus were wolves where you have to put
the were wolf in several different pieces.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Yeah, well that's monster squad rules, because they even mentioned
that in Strippers Versus were Wolves? Have have we talked
about strippers versus were Wolves on Earth versus Soup?
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:16):
I think we have. We have done that episode that
they specifically mentioned monster Squad in that you can do.
You can blow them up. You can blow up were wolves. Absolutely,
they're in little, tiny little bits, but they'll come back
together because that's not a silver bullet death. So that's
why they have to put them all in like little
individual bottles so they can come back together.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
They put them in small ill j Mason jars, but that.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Technically won't kill them. They're just stopped from coming back
like that doesn't kill it anyway. All right, we were
way off on a freaking tangent already, But it's I
don't like it when they constantly change the rules.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Never like that because it's always been a bad cotton
continuity people.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
The doctor. The doctor jokes with the inspector. So there's
this werewolf thing, and you know, if I remove these bullets,
he'll come back to life. And he goes it, takes
the bullets out and goes. Oops. I guess he's not
a werewolf.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
But they go to smoke.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
They just smoke in the autopsy room. They whip out,
their their their smokes light up and Doninsky wakes up
and they're all shocked. It just rips them apart because
he turns right into a were wolf and rips them apart.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Because they did this also on a full moon.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Yeah, which I mean if.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Okay, if you find a werewolf, or you find somebody
with silver bullets in them, the don't do the ortopsy.
Put it in the.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Put it in u's the paperwork for like three days,
then do it later. Just do it later. Just do
it later.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
I had to do this one, or I had to
do this one. Just don't do it that night.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Or don't take the silver bullets out for a few days.
I don't know, like just leave meno Ops, I misplaced
the silver balls.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Haven you've been doing autopsy on them, because I will
go they'll just come back together.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
I know you could. You could well. Actually, if the
silver bullets are still inside him, he wouldn't come back,
and the autopsy scars would still be there.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Yeah, but once you pull, once you.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Pull the silver bullets out, the autopsy scars would go
away and he'd just come right back. Oh, so you
could totally. You could do Darlene Darlene, free organ transplants,
free organ transplants.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Oh, then you're spreading the curse.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
No, no, because you're not bitten by the werewolf. Free
organ transplants. This opens up a giant can of worms.
You need a new liver. Shoot Dninski, Shoot Daninski, open
them up, take his liver out, put it into somebody else,
Close him back up, Remove the bullets. Dninski has saved
(12:58):
the human race. Infinite organ transference.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
I think you're circulating that that that's that the disease.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
You're not bitten by the werewolf. You're not bitten by
the werewolf.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
This one, we don't know if it's bite or not. Actually, yeah, well.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Why would you curse somebody? Why would you give somebody
a curse for just getting an organ transplant to save
their lives. That would suggest a really evil god of
some sort that's like, you know what, you guys found
this really cool loophole where Doninsky's gonna get shot a thousand,
you know, infinite amount of times. And yeah, he might
(13:40):
have been a bad guy, that's why he got cursed,
but that's like his punishment. But he's saving all these lives.
Look at the good that comes from Dninsky. Just going
you need a long lane lane line Chainey Cheney, he'd
be like, look, I can save all these lives. You
need a kidney, no problem. Just just just I'll kiss you,
(14:02):
fall in love with me. Put a couple of bullets,
silver bullets right here, right here in my heart. I'll
get autopsy and you can have my kidney. Then just
have me remove the bullet. Afterwards, I'll grow a new kidney.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Aaron, stop, stop stop, okay, okay, okay, because somebody's gonna
now create that movie and it's going to be horrible.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Oh yeah, I know. It's gonna be like were wolves
in an organ farm, an organ harvesting farm. Oh that's sick. No,
I mean it's funny in a comedy type situation where
you just have one guy going you need a kidney,
no problem, just shoot me. But like, yeah, that that's
that's kind of evil if it's forced, if they're like
just forcing were wolves into it. Anyway, we have werewolf
(14:48):
werewolf vision.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Is he man house and a very hero if he
ended up being able to kill kill a werewolf at
that time?
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Oh yeah, okay, So he's wandering the woods, he finds
a woman walking alone, attacks her. Credits and we get
clips from later in the movie.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
There's bets that are larger than and large cat noises at.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
This point, So we get a man looking at postcards
of Paris.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
In a bar.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
It's a nightclub. It's a bar, nightclub. It's a very strange.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
So we had this discussion because I was like, this
is supposed to probably say that they're in Paris.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Why would there be postcards of Paris in a nightclub
in Paris? See, when I watched that, I totally assumed
that this was just like a lounge, like an ultra
lounge in an airport somewhere else, because why would there
be a rack of Paris postcards in a nightclub in Paris?
(15:53):
That just seems really weird to me.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Maybe during the day it's a they bring out all
the the tourist I don't know garbage, and I forgot
to take that one down.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
So we're introduced to dude number one. His name is like,
his name is Inspector Marcel. He's a piece of shit,
but he's dating Elvira, and Elvira is researching black magic
as ancient superstititions was.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
A student, and she's talking about a vampire.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Yeah, she knows about this vampire, Countess Wandessa Darvula deah.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
And since we're in France, I'm going this is the
because everything that she said, I'm like, you're in the
wrong country.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
That was what well, because it's supposed to be like
she's supposed to be like Elizabeth Bathroy.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Yes, and that's where I.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Know, Eastern Europe. But point is is that they she
does specifically say this Countess Wandessa Darvula whatever blah blah
blah blah blah. She drank the blood of virgins to
stay young, and then she was buried in a secret
place after being like stabbed in the heart with a
silver cross made from the chalice. This this holy chalice
(17:08):
blah blah blah blah. Okay, it just goes on and this.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Is a part where we actually see the the what's
taking place of that, because but our picture didn't come
out well, but we have pictures of it. And I
was like, that's actually a horn.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
She's drinking like virgin blood from like a goat's.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Horn or something, chalice on top of a goat's horn.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Yeah, and it's actually pretty cool. Yeah, I mean it
really is. But she's like, Okay, you know, I have
an assistant named Genevieve, and I immediately go she's fresh meat.
I haven't even we haven't even met her yet. She's
fresh meat. Because here we have our main character, Redhead.
She has a pretty young assistant that Marcel's like, oh,
(17:56):
you better protect her. She's fresh meat. She will be
dead by the end of the movie.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
And Marcel is going to is Tambul to.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Hunt somebody down because he's an inspector with like inner
pol or.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Something with constant istanbul.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
We then go to Elvira and Genevieve, driving towards the
village that they're that they're where they think this ancient
evil woman is buried. They stop looking for gas. They
go into a ruined barn and this is this is
weirdest okay, no, no, no, no, hold on. This is arguably one
(18:33):
of the greatest string in this movie. There are so
many red flags that get thrown up about, like it
doesn't matter that they're women, Let's just let's just go
with Like a guy comes into this situation, I'm gonna
go into a creepy barn where there's no one around.
No one seems to be in this like the outskirts
of the village, and there's dolls hanging from the rafters.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
The dow falls down from the red upside.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
It's tight in the rafters. Yeah, and then you're like, Okay,
you know what, I haven't been able to find gas
in a long time. Is this good? Now? Is a guy? No?
You know what? This is kind of weird. I'm gonna
get eaten. There's cannibals out, I'm walking out, I'm going home.
But they're two young single women on their own in
(19:20):
this situation. How many red flags are there already? Now?
The red flags get far more later on, to the
point where if you were in a modern movie theater,
the audience would be screaming at the screens, going get out,
what is wrong with you? This is?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
It's like in these modern ones, the where you're screaming
there's no don't split up.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Or like why are you going into the barn covered
in blood?
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Why are you having.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Yeah? Why are you having sex in like the an
area that is known for serial killer the killers like
living next door, or like yeah, I mean it's anyway,
they're in this barn. And then suddenly Doninsky shows up.
He's like, hey, how's it going? Babies, you know, and
he's okay, look, Paul Nashy's a charming guy. He's a
(20:18):
handsome guy. You know, back in the early seventies, he's
a handsome guy.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
He U is the place anyway? I have like Les Shawl,
But I don't think that's where somewhere France. It's supposed
to be North France.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
Okay, Okay, So Doninsky's like, hey, how's it going? There
isn't really a lot of gas here. But I'll tell
you what. You can stay at my castle tonight.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
He didn't call it.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
It's a manor his manor home. It's a manor home.
You guys can stay at my manor home tonight and
in the morning I'll get my my like you know,
housekeeper or whatever to drive you into town. We'll get
you some gas. I'll tell you what. I'll even provide
dinner for you. But but I have to warn you
and and more red flags are coming up here. Yes,
(21:03):
you have to be No, He's like, there's no electricity,
there's no phones. So I'm really sorry, but you have
to come back with me, and you'll be in communicado entirely.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
While you see it, because he likes it for writing.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Research. Yeah, research and writing. Okay, single, two single young
women with a man. They just met in a very creepy,
weird area and he's just so happens to be exactly
in this strange barn with dolls hanging from the rafters.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Yeah, I would be weird.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
So what do they do. They kind of look at
him with googly eyes and go.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
See they would have been better off at this point
of having the car run out of gases.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
They have no choice.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Yeah, and they have no choice.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Well, they would still have a choice at this point.
The logical rational thing to do would be to walk away.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
It is to go what is the village still that way?
Speaker 2 (22:04):
And and by.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
The way, one of the things that we didn't understand
because it was broad daylight, almost noon when they filmed it.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, and it's all night.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Time and it's supposed to be close tonight.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Yeah, I don't get it. So anyway, And.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
And by the way, the doll thing made me think
of the island in Mexico, all over that island.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Yeah, he says, you know, I'm a writer. I like
the solitude. I've been living there for six months. And
we oh, I actually have the countess's whole name here,
Countess Wandessa, Darvula d Nadoski, Nadasti, Nadasti, Nadasti. Anyway, he's
(22:53):
also writing about her coincidence. It just so happens that
he also knows a whole bunch about her. And and
Elvira is intrigued by this strange man that just so
happened to be in the creepy barn that just so
happens to have a mannor home that has no electricity
or communication. Anyway, they go to dinner. They go to dinner,
(23:17):
and they're all very impressed. Doninsky is sitting at this
large table table by himself with the two girls. There
is weirdness, okay, And why I describe it as weirdness
is the girls, after dinner leave and They're like, none
of this makes sense because no man would ever set
(23:39):
a dinner dinner setting like that. He used proper forks.
And but then Elvira is like, but no woman would
serve us cold cuts like that. Only men eat gold cuts.
And I'm like, wow, you guys are just being sexists.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
That whole conversation I did not get and I didn't
write a dang thing about it because I was just.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Like, Charlene, do you like cold cuts? Yes, all right,
I make that argument.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
I have actually prepared you a plate of.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
It, Darlene. Have I set a proper table setting?
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Yes you have.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Okay, screw you, Elvira and Jennevie. This whole conversation, do.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
You guys knows he does most of the cooking.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
I love cooking. I love it, Okay. It is a
way to express yourself creativet you know, creatively in a
way that impacts multiple senses at the same time, you know, taste, smell, touch.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
So this is one of those things that made me
made us both go what all right? So making conclusions
out of stuff that doesn't make sense.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
In the cold manner home with no electricity and no telephones,
the girls are in a room, and they just decide
that they're going to go down to their little slips
because you might not need to get the hell out
of there from a serial killer rapist in the middle
of the night.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Yeah, and some was it about their door being weird too.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Yeah. Oh, they get locked in because Doninsky locks them
in right.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
No, that's another because the woman Elizabeth comes in later.
They couldn't lock the door here.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
It is here, it is. Elvira's like, I don't know,
I'm gonna I have a lot to think about. I'm
gonna have trouble getting asleep, and Jennevie goes, I don't know,
take a few sleeping pills or something I always do,
and I just they're everything. Everything they're doing, it's like, whoa.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
At some point I looked over to you and I said, Genevieve,
at some point is going to say I'll be right back,
and it's it's just gonna make me crack up because
they're breaking every horror movie like this is. This is
almost a parody. And then I was like, no, wait,
it's not. It must be satire. The thing is, it's not.
(26:07):
This is literally being played straight. All that is being
played straight. I love this movie. Okay, so so they
try to get asleep. So what happens in the middle
of the night, Darlene, since everyone took sleeping.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Pills, well, she didn't take sleep.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
No, Elvira doesn't take sleeping pills, but she acts like
she did, because in the middle of the night, a
strange woman just enters enters their room and starts strangling
lot Vira, and Elvira just kind of opens her eyes
and doesn't scream, but she lets this woman strangle her again.
(26:48):
I paused the movie. I looked over to you, and
I said, Darlene, does Alvira like this? I don't. This
is what's coming across like, I don't know anymore. I'm
so out of like touch with.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Maybe she couldn't scream because she was being strangled.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
She didn't fight back. She just laid there and went, uh,
like okay, anyway, her.
Speaker 4 (27:14):
Vision fades out, her vision fades out, it fades back in,
and there's Doninsky hovering over her like almost nose to nose,
going good morning.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
I have to apologize for my sister.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
What she didn't tell her about, and she's totally nuts.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
My sister has some problems, and I apologize for it.
Normally I keep her in the barn, but she somehow
got out. Oh okay, wait a yeah, go ahead, are
the other cottage that was.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
The other thing the one girl walked.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Into the Oh yeah, we haven't even gotten to the
barn yet. We haven't got okay, so we already have
strange manner that has no electricity, with a strange man,
no phone, no contact with the outside world, no one
knows where there's any gas.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
And in college with with.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
With no hold on. We haven't even gotten to that.
We haven't even gotten to that. It just so happens
that he has the exact same interests that they do.
All right, there's a strange barn that has dolls hanging.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
From the rafters down the road.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Then a strange woman comes into their bedroom at night
and tries to strangle.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Them, and absolutely mad.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Okay, these are the red flags we have. There will
be more, There will be more, Okay. So Doninsky apologizes,
So Genevieve walks around exploring, Well, Doninsky nol Vira talk
and Doninsky says, his sister has PTSD and needs isolation,
so that's why she stays in the cottage. And I'm
(28:53):
very sorry that she got out normally she's strapped to
her bed with like a gag or whatever. I don't
he doesn't say that, but at this point, what has
to be going through Alvira's head. She's completely calm, it's
no problem.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
She changes very because she's the one that's sitting there
going about not being there and shouldn't be there and that.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
And Elvira's completely okay with all of it, like just immediately.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
But then it flips the other direction.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Okay, So Genevieve now finds a barn, the barn on
the property. Okay, what do you expect when you it's
a barn? It's the barn. What do you expect to
see in a barn of a manor home? Hey? Some animals? Okay,
(29:40):
no problem. This has shackles car like not shackles, manacles
hanging from the rafters that are clearly meant for people.
There is blood sprayed on the walls. What does Geneviev do?
Oh okay, that's that's a little weird. I guess I'll
(30:01):
tell Avira about it later. But all right, there has
to be a rational explanation for this. She just found
like a torture room.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
What would you do at that point.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Oh, I wouldn't have gotten to this point. I wouldn't. No,
I wouldn't have gone back to Doninski's manor home without
electricity and no contact with the outside world, where he
just so happens to appear in the weird barn with
dolls hanging from rafters. Now, no, I wouldn't even have
even gotten to the point of finding the barn with
shackles hanging from the rafters and blood.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
Walk the twenty.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Miles I walk the twenty miles away to get gas
and had you come with me, because I'm not gonna
leave anybody with this dude, there's something wrong with this
whole area. But Genevieve finds the BDSM torture room. Yep, okay,
all right, where was I? Jenn of you is the
(31:00):
attacked by the sister again?
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Jennifered or Jenevieve? Jennevieve?
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Was you've in in the shackle BDS torture room?
Speaker 1 (31:10):
It's not again because the first.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
Time, I guess stole Vira. Yeah, because Genevieve slept through
the first one of the first attack because she had
taken far too many sleeping pills. Oh you know what
the sister probably choked her first and said, oh, she's
already dead, and then it just so anyway Genevieve's attacked.
Doninsky just kind of shows up and says, hey, sister Elizabeth, chill,
(31:37):
chill it out. You need to leave these girls alone.
There are guests, and then like the sisters just kind
of shrugs and then walks away, like okay, whatever, what
the hell? Okay, look, I will fully admit there is
some bonkers, bonker ship mess that makes no sense. Is
(32:00):
this is nuts, and I love it. Okay, So Genevieve
wants to leave at this.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Point, Yeah, don't blame her.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Good for you, ma'am. You finally have figured out that
it probably would be a good idea to leave, Okay.
Elvira and Genevieve look at Daninski's research on ancient churches
and this this woman, and they're like, you know what,
this tomb where the countess is is probably at this
crossroads because they always used to like summon demons at
(32:28):
crossroads and then like pin witches in crossroads. So because
they can't be like consecrated ground, blah blah blah, bullshit, bullshit,
black bullshit, and so Geneviev's like, well, I guess we
could stay for a little bit longer to open up
the you know, the grave of the demon. She doesn't
say that, yeah, you know, no she doesn't. But Genevieve's like,
you know, maybe we can't stay. Okay, I'm okay with that.
(32:53):
So they go to it and oh god, so they
find like her tomb, the Countess's tomb says on it
no one must disturb her rest until the day of
the last judgment. Okay, you're dealing with a countess that
is supposedly a vampire, has all these evil rumors about her.
(33:18):
You are supposedly archaeology students. What do they do open
up the grave with no documentation, no cameras, nothing like that.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Right, Well, they have the camera, it's taken afterwards with
the dead body.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
Well yeah, but they don't take any pictures there. So
they open up, open up.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
The after reading what it said.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Okay, I at that point look like instructions. I don't care. Right,
their archaeology or history students, they'd be documenting it all.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Right, Yeah, they would have got.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
They would just said like, oh, that's a weird saying,
and then moved on and I would have bought that.
The point is that they see.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
If it wasn't in English, and if it wasn't being
able to be read, and then you take the pencil and.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
The yeah, you'd get a rubbing of it or something.
So they open it up and Elvira wants nothing to
do with it, but Doninsky sees a silver cross and
he smiles, and it's a silver cross through calviral leaves.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
Before they open up the coffin, she refuses to see
the coffin. They open up the tomb, but then she
walks off before they open up the coffin.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
Okay, so they see the silver cross in there, and
Genevieve reaches in. Because any good archaeology student knows that
grave robbing is a completely acceptable form.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Of study, she must have studied under.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Look Indiana Jones, No, don't, don't start with that, because
Indiana Jones, yes, is a grave robber, but at least
at least he's doing it for reasons. There's no real
reason to this, except like Jenevie.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Have to cut her hand and need on a vampire
after taking the cross that she knows it's supposed to steak.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
The steak the vampire no, she doesn't just bleed on
the vampire. She bleeds in the vampire's mouth mouth. Oh,
oh my god, Oh my god. All right, So.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
And then then we during this time, Elvirah walks walks
off and through this old ruin ruin of a church
or something.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Yeah, and there's like there's like a zombie inside in
dark robes.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
There's what it looks like a monk to me, I
didn't we couldn't see his face until we watched the
we got the pictures. Yeah, because, by the way, that
is a cool ass mask.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
It is really good, really good. But it's like in
weird slow mo. And this monk zombie attacks Elvira, it
chases after her. Taninsky arrives and stabs it with the
silver cross done like it just kind of disintegrates. Okay,
(36:17):
So that night, a hand pushes through the soil and
Genevieve looks out the window to the night.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
And with whispers in her head.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
Yeah, because the Countess is now in Geneviev's head because
technically the Countess fed from Genevieve in a weird way,
so I guess Genevieve can hear her voice through the ether.
I don't know. So Genevieve goes out and the Countess
drinks from her arm and at this point, okay, I
(36:49):
get why at this point Genevieve wouldn't leave, because theoretically
she should be under the countess's power. But let's be
fair again. Elvira sees a zombie monk attack her, and
all of a sudden, Doninsky goes out and steaks the
zombie monk, and it like just disintegrades. Why are you
(37:09):
staying here? All of these things adding up are really
kind of like I think we need to get some
priests and maybe the army. I don't know. I need
an old priest and a young priest. This is it's
it's why. Let's let's go find van Helsing. Doninsky, are
(37:31):
you some sort of vampire s lawyer? No, ma'am, I'm
actually a were wolf. Okay, I'm done. I'm done. I'm
an immortal werewolf who just can't be killed unless I'm
shot through the heart twice by silver bullets from a
woman who loves me and wants to die with me,
as long as the bullets stay inside. Damn it, the rules.
(37:57):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (37:57):
Well, Jennevie gets turned into our bad Empire. Yeah, walder
Man sends Elvira with the creepy dude.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Oh no, we haven't gotten to that yet, Darlene, haven't
even gotten to that. We have another big red flag
because Elvira finds Elizabeth Doninsky, Waldemar's sister impaled on the
wrought iron fence.
Speaker 1 (38:23):
Oh that's right, it's.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
Now been murders open. No, she's dead.
Speaker 1 (38:31):
Yes, her head is in the pointy thing. Yea.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
So Elvira finds her. Genevieve is clearly turned. She asks
Elvira to join her. Join me, Alvira, we shall know pleasures.
We shall know pleasure in a.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
Smoky a ice.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Yeah, it's it's it's actually.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Really that is filled with dry ice on the floor.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
It looks, it looks great.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Why would you walk down a dog on?
Speaker 2 (39:02):
So Doninsky comes out with the silver cross and like
turns her away, turns Genevieve away, and Elvira's like, I'm
okay to stay, really, I'm okay, you know, I want
to get back to that corridor.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
Would you walk down a corridor that has dry ice fog,
a corridor that's supposed to be inside a building? Would
you walk down a corridor with.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
I'll be fair about this. If Genevieve's turned, which she is,
she's a vampire. At this point, she's in Elvira's head.
She's putting the Whammy on her, so Elvira's not in
firm control of her own actions at this point. It's
only when Doninsky comes out with the Silver Cross and
turns her that Elvira really comes back to her senses.
That does not again, does not make sense that Elvira's
(39:50):
like totally chill with everything that's happening again, right, But
her coming out into that weird corridor, I'm like, I
can buy I can buy this.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
See I would see that the creepy stuff on the
floor before I saw them, before I even seen And
go uh uh because all my picture goes back to
is the girl with the flip flops in the movie
Evolution and she's walking in worms.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
Okay, well it doesn't again like the wammy. She's got
the whammy on her.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (40:30):
At this point, Donsky tells Elvira to leave, that he'll
fight this himself, but Elvira refuses to leave and then
immediately professes her love of Doninsky. I love you, I
love you.
Speaker 1 (40:41):
What happened to uh Marcel, Oh.
Speaker 2 (40:43):
We forgot about inspector Marcel inspect her boyfriend in my
freaking notes. No, Darlene, Aaron and Darlene have not forgotten
the movie forgot, but you know what the he does
remember in a little bit in a little bed.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
Poor guy.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
He no Elvira goes into town with a creepy dude,
with a really creepy dude. Okay, yes, okay.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
There is no no, no. This isn't red flag anymore.
Speaker 2 (41:15):
This is a blinking neon red flag. This this guy
is clearly a rapist.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
Yeah, he's not just on the sex offender.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
List, he is the sex offender list. He is driving
her into town, talking about how beautiful her hair is,
how her hair smells so good? Can I have some
of that hair? And he's like just leering at her
and complimenting every single thing about her.
Speaker 1 (41:48):
I'll tell you, guys, this creeped me out.
Speaker 2 (41:51):
And he creeped me out.
Speaker 1 (41:53):
I would have probably opened the door and rolled out
of the v call this and ran myself.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
All the way to the Again. I looked over, I
paused the movie, and I looked over at you, and
I said, this man's going to attempt to rape on
her at some point in this movie. I don't want
to see it, but it's going to happen, Darling. Did
it happen, Yes, yep. Now it's attempted and we see
no nudity and there's only a little bit of physical
(42:24):
touching in it. Being that like we have a hero
come in and save save the day. Point is is,
at the very least they set up how creepy this
guy is. But what they did not do was have
a woman actually go this guy. This guy is setting
off every creepy everybody's creep sense within a freaking one
(42:50):
hundred kilometers has to be going off from this guy.
Speaker 1 (42:53):
And why didn't Waldemar.
Speaker 2 (42:57):
Deal with this guy?
Speaker 1 (42:58):
Why was he dealing with his this guy?
Speaker 2 (43:00):
This guy's like the groundskeeper. Yes, you'd think that Waldemar
would have his creep detector going off with this dude.
This guy does not hide the filth. That's what's weird. Okay.
So anyway, she goes into town. She wants to go
to the post office, but like mister creepy dude says, oh,
(43:22):
you know, there is no post office, but there's a
lovely butcher that I can take you to. He cuts
the meat really really well, and I'm like, oh my god.
It just keeps going on and on. This guy he
literally would rather take her to a butcher to see
animals being slaughtered, and he thinks that's a hot date.
(43:47):
I okay, I honestly have to think this movie is
satire because this is so over the top and and ludicrous.
It's ludicrous, right, And I was even laughing at that point.
You were laughing. You were like, why the hell is
he talking about taking her to a butcher? And she's
(44:09):
just grinning and nodding, like, Okay, I get it, Like
you're trapped in the car with this guy and you're
not wanting to set him off right at that. I
get that reaction. But like you would think that once
she got out of the car, she'd run or say
something to someone.
Speaker 1 (44:26):
Run the walk, because I would kind of would have
treated him like a bear. I wouldn't have ran, because
I figure he'd want to chase, especially after the butcher comes.
Speaker 2 (44:41):
So Dosky. We get to go back to Doninsky on
the on the on the manor home grounds, we see
him dragging the body of his sister. This movie just
keeps going he's dragging the body of his sister to
a shallow grave.
Speaker 1 (44:58):
It's not that shiit.
Speaker 2 (45:01):
Jello. He's like, I love you, I love my dear sister.
I've been taking care of you for so long, chops
off her head, swings it into the grave, and then
steaks her body, tosses, pushing it in with his foot.
Speaker 1 (45:21):
Then we find out why he needs why he took
the cross.
Speaker 2 (45:25):
Out because now that's the only thing that can kill him.
I don't know the rules change, but him dragging his sister,
beheading her and staking her is because she didn't die
from being drained. She was thrown onto a damn wrought
iron fence and her head had a point through it. Okay,
(45:48):
night fallows Genevieve and the Countess stock Elvira, but she
makes it back to Doninski's house in time. Elvira's told
to stay in the lodge and lock herself up because
the moon is about to rise, and Doninsky changes.
Speaker 1 (46:02):
And that's where he tells her about needing the cross.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
So the vampires get in and pierce Elvira's neck. The
Countess drinks blood from the chalice, and then Genevieve like,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (46:17):
She's Elvira is bit by Genevieve.
Speaker 2 (46:21):
Yeah, and then they dance together and it's this really
weird scene where you're like, wow, did they just win?
But then Alvira wakes up It was all a dream,
not the whole movie, just the attack.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
On her, but it isn't.
Speaker 2 (46:36):
But it isn't a dream. It's the vampires getting into
her head and like trying to convince her of all
of it as well. It's a dream, but it isn't.
Speaker 1 (46:46):
A dream because she had.
Speaker 2 (46:51):
So is it a dream?
Speaker 1 (46:53):
I don't know that the movie was dark and I
couldn't see.
Speaker 2 (46:56):
What was going on. Uh. At this point, Doninsky confesses
to Elvira that he's a werewolf. He says that the
silver closs the cross that they found is what must
be used to kill him, but Elvira now wants to
stay and destroy the vampires again. Genevieve visits alvirah and uh,
(47:18):
is this a dream as well? I can I don't know.
Doninsky's attacked by Genevieve, but he defeats her. He finds
Elvira bitten at this point, and the Countess flees the
rising Sun into like these catacombs. Doninsky says no ill
effects for alvirus since he killed Genevieve at this point,
and Genevieve is the one that's been like feeding on
(47:40):
her like directly, so he's like, don't worry, you won't change.
I just killed Genevieve. Well, bitch, why didn't you just
kill the countess? Because the countess turned Genevieve And if
you killed the countess then Genevieve wouldn't have been a vampire.
Speaker 1 (47:54):
But she he couldn't find the there's there's a lot
of conic combs, and they can't find the countess because
he's been looking for the He goes, and we have
another full moon, so a whole month went by.
Speaker 2 (48:07):
I don't know, so he he. He tells Elvira, don't
worry about Genevieve, my dear. I freed her soul. She's
no longer living in sin. Pray for her, Pray for her.
What what is happening anymore? Is this movie?
Speaker 1 (48:24):
It gets worse?
Speaker 2 (48:25):
Am I alive? I don't know. It's just weird. Then
then like, okay, no big deal. Dinsky and Elvira are
taking a nice stroll. They want to explore the underground
tubs looking for the countess, but Dninsky warns Alvira that
tonight is another full moon again.
Speaker 1 (48:40):
Yeah, it has, and this is why we have the
chains up in the wear thing, and.
Speaker 2 (48:44):
That he must be chained up. You must chain me up,
my dear, otherwise I might hurt you. Villagers that the
villager from earlier who gave Elvira the ride shows up,
knocks Elvira out and says that she will be his
Oh yes, I will smell your hair every night. But
(49:07):
at least Dininski breaks out of his chains, attacks the
guy and kills him. Yep, that's it, guys.
Speaker 1 (49:14):
Oh, but it gets It gets funny with the peer
of peers girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (49:19):
Because you know what, you know what's hold on. We're
not even there yet. You know what's always really nice
to do after being assaulted with the intent to be
raped sex with your savior and they're in bed smoking.
Speaker 1 (49:37):
There's something about a funeral service. I have this this
note that says funeral village.
Speaker 2 (49:45):
Yeah, they need to do a funeral service for Genevieve
or something. But anyway, He's like, our love has no future,
but I want you to know that I'll treasure this
moment forever.
Speaker 1 (49:56):
What sappy dog one love Did they get the that
one out of?
Speaker 2 (50:01):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (50:02):
Look that is that is like the worst tagline that
you can ever get, even in a crappy little love face.
Speaker 2 (50:10):
Okay, look, we're not even done with the plot yet.
I have to say something between between like assignment terror,
assignment terror and this. These movies are so bonkers, weird
and funny because you just don't know what the hell's happening.
What's gonna happen next? I don't know. Are they just
(50:30):
gonna are they gonna like tear each other's heads off
in passion like praying manuses? I don't know. You don't
know what's going to happen.
Speaker 1 (50:38):
That would be a wait for him to get killed.
Speaker 2 (50:42):
Quick come back. It's not a silver But the point
is I love these movies because there's just so ludicrous. Okay, ludicrous.
I'll admit their faults, have no doubt.
Speaker 1 (50:55):
Okay, but this is where Marcel go comes in and
talks to Peers girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (51:03):
No, no, okay, well yeah we have we have we
have inspector boyfriend showing up. But Daninsky is attacked by
a random dude from the village who says, you killed
my sister. It's this woman from the beginning of the
movie that he stalked and killed and now I'm gonna
kill you. So this random dude like comes up with
a knife and like stabs Dninsky, and Daninsky just sort
(51:25):
of like he.
Speaker 1 (51:25):
Doesn't even stab because he's wearing this leather and it's
got it just bounces off his le another jacket.
Speaker 2 (51:31):
Like Dninsky looks at this guy like, what are you doing? Man?
Are you too weak? Can you not like stab me?
It's not like, okay, look, we know that Dninsky is
not invulnerable, right, he can be injured. He just heals.
This guy is so weak he cannot put a dagger
(51:55):
through a leather jacket. And Dninsky isn't even threatened at
all by this guy. He just stands there looking at him,
going what the hell man? And he pushes him away
to go back off, and this guy falls on his
own dagger and dies. And Doninsky's like, well, shit, I
think I.
Speaker 1 (52:14):
Have a person next to my sister.
Speaker 2 (52:17):
I'll have to bury another person next to my sister.
Do I need to steak him and pet him? I
don't know. It's tradition, now, I guess she doesn't.
Speaker 1 (52:24):
We don't get that.
Speaker 2 (52:25):
Damn that would have been amazing him, just like beheading
him staking and then kicking his body into a shallow crane.
Speaker 1 (52:33):
But I like this. Pierre. Pierre's girlfriend is at the
she's the bartender.
Speaker 2 (52:40):
What a weird scene, okay, because we're a weird scene there, and.
Speaker 1 (52:45):
She's she's wearing lipstick like some she.
Speaker 2 (52:49):
Has a Cupid's bow lip on, so to me it
looks very nineteen forties. And I remarked on that she's
this dark haired beauty and she's the bartender.
Speaker 1 (52:59):
She's so hell she looks like a dog on vampire herself.
Speaker 2 (53:03):
So okay, how do I even describe this conversation? This
is a conversation that you would have only with somebody
that you are very intimately familiar with, in that it
is an incredibly intimate conversation that this woman just starts
having with a random guy, talking about like.
Speaker 1 (53:26):
His her boyfriend has not come back.
Speaker 2 (53:30):
That he loves this with sex and blah blah, and
I'm like, what the what the hell is happening? What's
going on?
Speaker 1 (53:37):
And he she tells Marcel to go to the cottage,
and I went cottage, question mark, question mark? Okay, castle
because it's been a castle okay, okay, but it's been
a manor home and it's now been a cottage.
Speaker 2 (53:54):
So inspector boyfriend shows up and didn't he explain to
inspect a boyfriend that Elvira loves him and they have
a special connection, and inspect her boyfriend says, oh, look,
you need to tell that You need to tell Alvira.
You need to tell her that she's coming with me.
Otherwise I'm going to pursue the investigation to all these
(54:15):
murders that have happened in the area. And I and
I saw all those fresh graves out there. You really
don't want me inspecting and and and and coming in
and doing an investigation on this deed Dninsky. And Danky's like,
you know what, Yeah, you're right, I'll tell Vira to leave.
My love for her means nothing, because I just don't
want to go to jail, even though going to jail
(54:37):
would actually likely solve most of his problems because he's
always he's he would always be locked up during the
full moon. Now Doninsky doesn't really care. He's just like, okay, fine.
Speaker 1 (54:47):
But who would they put him with? And then all
of a sudden he'd rip apart.
Speaker 2 (54:51):
It would be one full moon where it would happen.
Then everyone would take him seriously. They just throw him
in a freaking bucket and never let him out, Like
that's it right, All his problems would be solved, he'd
never hurt anybody else. He'd want to die, and and
he'd be like, you wanta, you wanta you want to
execute me for all my crimes. That's fine, I'll just
come back. You have to do it this way, and
(55:13):
then somebody would do it right.
Speaker 1 (55:16):
Well, I wonder what would happen if you just shot
him with and put him in cement.
Speaker 2 (55:22):
Well, as long as the bullets went into him, if
you freeze dryin up maybe and then like put him
in a vacuum chamber so his body wouldn't rot, then
the bullets would stay in.
Speaker 1 (55:34):
Right and then and then case I'm in uh, concrete.
Speaker 2 (55:38):
And concrete launch them into space. I don't know, Like
the rules now are so freaking like it doesn't matter anyway,
So inspect your boyfriend is driving Elvira out, the Countess
throws a body at the car, like just whips a
person's course.
Speaker 1 (55:54):
Oh that's what that means that I've got on my notes.
Speaker 2 (55:58):
She laughs as boyfriend fires gun at her. She's just
because bullets are bouncing off her. She's a vampire, Like, okay,
big deal. So the Countess takes inspect her boyfriend and
Elvira and chains them to the wall of a crypt,
and the Countess says that Elvira's blood will make the
dark lord rejoice.
Speaker 1 (56:17):
Okay, her master is coming.
Speaker 2 (56:19):
The Devil's like a shadow on the wall is like
the devil is coming in. It's actually pretty cool. Doninsky
comes in with his silver Cross, making the Countess back off.
He unchains Alvira, who un chains inspector boyfriend.
Speaker 1 (56:33):
Doninsky changes the what I put and attacks her master.
Speaker 2 (56:41):
Yeah, attacks your master. Then rips up the count as
she melts the bones and maggots, and then Elvira kills
Doninsky by stabbing him with the silver cross.
Speaker 1 (56:49):
He dies and daily and leaves with Marcel and they.
Speaker 2 (56:54):
Walk into the misty morning daylight the end, like.
Speaker 1 (56:58):
How do you know that's daylight? Because I haven't figured
out daylight or darkness. That is number one bad things.
The other one is this movie. If you were a person,
this movie would not exist because you would go if.
Speaker 2 (57:18):
Any normal human being was in this situation, it would
never happen. And it's not because it's an idiot plot.
It's not because it's an idiot plot. It's that it's
like an oblivious plot, or like an ignorant plot. It's
like a one to be oblivious to all the problems.
Speaker 1 (57:35):
That are there, or blinders one, or so much needing
wanting something that you ignore all the I don't know
all those instincts. You know your animal instincts too.
Speaker 2 (57:52):
I honestly think that Elvira and Genevieve must have been
on tranquilizers the entire time, like that's the only reason
they'd be reacting this way. But then, like, why does
Elvira have trouble going to sleep? They must be on tranquilizers,
like incredible amounts of like LSD and tranquilizers, so like
nothing seems real. Everything is just like a Smurf cartoon
(58:14):
to them. I don't know that's the only explanation. Okay, look,
I love this movie. It's very clear. I love this
because it's just so insane. It's insane you never know
what's going to happen. Yes, does the plot make no sense? Again,
just like Assignment Terror, it's full of nonsense. It should
(58:34):
not occur the way it does. But I love.
Speaker 1 (58:38):
It, you love it. I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (58:41):
What works the most though in.
Speaker 1 (58:42):
This I actually, once we saw pictures, I gotta get
on for the makeup. I love how the vampire rises
from her crept.
Speaker 2 (58:51):
Oh yeah, she's amazing.
Speaker 1 (58:53):
Even in the dark ones.
Speaker 2 (58:54):
It comes up when she dies. It is just like
a pile of bones and maggot. That's shocking, really really good.
Speaker 1 (59:04):
The monks face is, like I said, is just the
pictures of.
Speaker 2 (59:10):
It that we found are just great, great great.
Speaker 1 (59:13):
The bad problem is why watching this I did not
get to see that. I did not get to see that.
I did not get to see that.
Speaker 2 (59:21):
I love the pacing. It works. You might might not
agree that the movie is good. I will, I will,
I will. I will be fair and objective and say
the movie is not good.
Speaker 1 (59:34):
What would you write it?
Speaker 2 (59:35):
Hold on? I'm not there. But the pacing it keeps
you engaged all the way through it. You're you're you
were always engaged. You gave me a look, Darlene, you
were always engaged in this movie. You were always like,
oh my god, what what is this? Hold on? What
does that mean? That means that this, this and this
just happened. Oh my god, I can't believe this happened.
(59:56):
You know, you were always engaged. Look at how many
notes you have.
Speaker 1 (01:00:00):
I have notes because I couldn't figure it out. You
were engaged, and some of them I had to go
put up, like when I went back and went Elvira
and have sex.
Speaker 2 (01:00:15):
So the point I'm trying to make, Darlene is, in
most movies you say I don't know what's going on.
Ninety percent of movies you don't know what's going on.
Speaker 1 (01:00:24):
The really bad ones, I throw the book down and go.
Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
But the point is that even in the movies where
you throw the book down and say I'm not taking
notes anymore, you still have a page and a half
of notes. You have two and a half pages of notes.
Speaker 1 (01:00:39):
I have two pages of note okay.
Speaker 2 (01:00:41):
Two pages of notes two, which is twice what your
normal notes are. You were engaged, so don't argue that
you weren't.
Speaker 1 (01:00:50):
But he goes woofy how many times in this movie?
Speaker 2 (01:00:54):
Three or four?
Speaker 1 (01:00:55):
Any I can understand when the full moon comes, it's
about three days.
Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
Yeah, okay, it has to be over at least a
couple months, Yes, at least a couple months but anyway,
the pacing is good. I would even go so far
as to say the costumes are good. The costuming department
did a very good job in this. I think the
set design was very good because the set dressing was fantastic.
(01:01:22):
It looked it looked very good. The acting, no, of course,
not that did not work. The plot did not work,
just like operating assignment. Terror did not work. But I
can't really think of anything else that truly didn't work
in this. It was entertaining, It was fun. It made
us laugh, probably unintentionally, but it still did.
Speaker 1 (01:01:46):
You weren't supposed to be laughing at what was going
laughing at, especially when you're like, girl, why aren't you running?
Speaker 2 (01:01:54):
Well, that was that was part of the fun of this, though,
going we're at like red flag number twelve, what's going
to be the next thing? They just completely ignore and
then like you didn't you never thought that it would
actually just continue to rise the level of like this
is terrible. Any rational human being would have left, like
days ago.
Speaker 1 (01:02:14):
I would have been out that dog gone barn, the
barn with the doll hit her in the head, and
I would have been like, it was only one dollar that.
Speaker 2 (01:02:25):
You see yeah, but it doesn't matter, like, what the hell?
And then there's just this guy just shows up in
the middle of the barn goes, yeah, I love walking
through here. So you like walking through the abandoned barn
with dolls hanging from the freaking rafters and you never
took it down? What the hell's wrong with you? But
then when Genevieve finds the BDSM sex dungeon that he
(01:02:48):
likes getting chained up in during the full moon, oh man,
all those red flags. Okay, look, I recommend the film,
just like I recommended Assignment Terror. I don't It's not
a good film, but it was a lot of fun
and just like a Simon Terror, Darlene does not recommend it,
but I recommend it because it's fun to watch. It's
(01:03:09):
not a good movie.
Speaker 1 (01:03:11):
But I don't think they're gonna find one that they
can watch.
Speaker 2 (01:03:14):
Out of ten, Darling, what would you give it.
Speaker 1 (01:03:19):
Four?
Speaker 2 (01:03:20):
Oh so higher than me with Assignment Terror? Like, I
don't know. Well, okay, I think you rated Assignment Terror
lower than four. See why would you rate it four?
Speaker 1 (01:03:37):
It seemed to have more more connection.
Speaker 2 (01:03:42):
Okay, fair because.
Speaker 1 (01:03:45):
Terror felt like to me it was several plots trying
to fight against each.
Speaker 2 (01:03:53):
Other, and this had one coherent idea. Yeah it did.
I actually give this a f. I admit that it's
not good, and I will admit that my rating is
higher than it likely should be because of how ludicrous
I found the movie and just how much I enjoyed
laughing at it. But that's what those out of ten
(01:04:17):
ratings are like. I'm not saying the movie's good. I'm not,
but I think it's closer to a five for me.
Speaker 1 (01:04:24):
Oh and the series is called Hombre Lobo.
Speaker 2 (01:04:29):
Series, Humbre. I want to watch more of them.
Speaker 1 (01:04:32):
I'm basically human Wolf series.
Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
I want to watch more because I have to think
that they just continue to get crazier and just more wacky.
Speaker 1 (01:04:45):
I don't think this is more crazy than that other one.
Speaker 2 (01:04:48):
Supposedly this is the most successful out of all of.
Speaker 1 (01:04:51):
Them, though. Okay, well.
Speaker 2 (01:04:54):
It's not. I liked it, damn it. I liked it. Okay,
so maybe we should just leave it there. Our next
episode is a five or a ten, folks. So what
do you think we're gonna do, Darling? What are we
gonna do?
Speaker 1 (01:05:08):
What?
Speaker 2 (01:05:09):
Invisible Agent from nineteen forty two.
Speaker 1 (01:05:12):
Okay, so I'm Aaron, I'm darling, good evening.
Speaker 2 (01:05:16):
Watching the skies. At no point in your rambling, incoherent
response were you even close to anything that could be
considered a rational thought.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
What could be worse than disappointing a little girl disappointing
a big girl.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
I have other ways of securing your cooperation. Sorry, miss
I was giving myself an oil job.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
When was it just azumbly as we've seen attitude to
it since we gave to a few low cabbages an
intellectual carrot.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
That mind boggles you see you see your stupid lives.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Stupid, stupid, I said Santa Claus. Long enough, we will.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Bring him to Mars.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
I've been afraid a lot of times in my life,
but I didn't.
Speaker 4 (00:37):
Know the real meaning of fear until until I kiss
peck me.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
One thing will be clear. It's not from man to
interfere in the ways of God's life.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Evening, everybody, and welcome to Earth Versus Soup, Episode two
seventy four. I'm Marion Pollier.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
And I'm Darling.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Last time, we actually watched a movie called Assignment Terror
from nineteen seventy and it was weird. Right. There were
multiple monsters. It was basically Monster Squad as though it
was filmed from Spain, Italy and Germany West Germany, and
it started a guy named Paul Nashy, and we said
(01:34):
we have to actually watch more of his films. We
found one and it's called Where Wolf Versus the Vampire
Woman nineteen seventy one.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
It's only Spanish and West German, No Italian, no Italian,
eighty six minutes La Noche dell.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Well Walpurgis, Valpurgis or something. Well, well, pose, Okay, we
have a couple things that we need to say about
the quality of the film finished. Go ahead, go ahead.
There's tons of names, right.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
All right, Shadow of the the Werewolf is the UK name.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
The Canadian name I believe is Werewolf Shadow.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Okay, so we have many names. Let's talk about the quality.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
We couldn't find a good one.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
We could not find a good quality version of this movie.
And that's looking on YouTube, to be Amazon. We even
bought a copy from Amazon. We decided that we're going
to cover it because I think this movie is worthy
of talking about.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Somebody can get a good, good copy, because we get
pictures of those same things.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Yeah, yeah, these are clear. Yeah, We've seen footage on YouTube,
like clips of the movie that are crystal clear, properly lit.
We know a version of this exists out there that
is actually high quality. We haven't found it. The versions
that we were able to find were very dark, to
(03:19):
the extent that it was very difficult to see in
certain scenes. With that said, the sound was fine and
we generally could follow everything that was going on except
that it was dark, except it was.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Dark when they were doing things, or we did not
see things clearly.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
So we're not going to judge the movie based on
us not being able to see it. It's not fair
to that to the movie to do that. And with
that said, I think you'll probably see that we still
really enjoyed this movie. I've never seen it before. This
(04:00):
is very different from Assignment Terror, where Assignment Terror's plot
is all over the place, right, it was just complete
nonsense all over the place. I still recommended it, even
though I gave it like a four out of ten.
I think this movie actually has a plot, a pretty
complex plot that has payoffs in it, and for an
(04:21):
eighty six minute long movie, Darlene, I have two and
a half pages of notes for it.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Which is what I do because when it got to
when I it got to the blackout things, I was like, uh.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
What okay? If I have two pages of notes. You
you normally have less than a page. Right, you have
a page and a half on this. You have two pages.
You're trying to show people on an audio podcast.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
You know I'm showing you.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Okay, Well, there is a lot of things here that
we took notes on, which means I think we were
pretty well engaged with the movies. So let's talk about
the plot. Actually, hold on, let's talk about the actors
and actresses. Okay, So we have Paul Nashy as Waldemar Doninski. Okay,
he is a returning he's he's our returning hero. Okay.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
He is the werewolf.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
He is the werewolf in all of these movies. He
is a returning character of a were wolf. And it's
not truly a series of movies because there's not really
a lot of connective tissue between them. He's just sort
of type cast, right.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
No, it's the same character. Yes, and this is supposed
to take place after.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
After the events of Assignments Terror.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
No, it's before. This is before.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Okay, it makes no difference if it is or not.
I didn't see any tissue.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
It's like having some of these Sherlock Holmes didn't make,
didn't connect the tissue and stuff.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I would say that it's more like a Flash Gordon
serial where there's there is supposed to be connections, but
there really isn't. It's just sort of a new thing
every time. And that's not dissing this movie. That's not
actually shitting on this movie.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
It's not a new thing every time. I don't think
it's a.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
We have Paul Nashy. We have an actress named Gabby
Fuchs who plays Elvira. That's exactly how I read her
name is Elvira. I think they pronounce it differently. That's
like Elvira or something like that.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
The syllable goes a little different.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
She's actually a fairly I won't say she's fairly well known,
but she's been in a few things over the years,
like Mark of the Devil. And then we have a
woman named Barbara Kappel who plays Genevieve in this and
she hasn't been in a lot. So basically, what I'm
trying to say is we do get Patty Shepherd, who
(06:57):
was in the last film and a few films that
we've actually watch Patty Shepherd, but she's she's I can't
say that she's in a bit part, she isn't You
might remember Patty Shepherd from Assignment Terror as the woman
who screwed off after being attacked by the werewolf and
left her boyfriend for dad. You just drove off in
the car and said, screw this, I'm out. And we
(07:20):
laughed and laughed and laughed about that, because I totally
get it, ma'am, thank you. She has a bit part
in this, but a lot of what she did instigates
the plot of the film. So if I keep talking
about just random people, a lot of these people just
really you won't know unless you watch an Operation Terror
(07:40):
and Assignment Terry. I'm sorry Assignent Terror from last time.
But anyway, is there anything else we want to talk
about before we get into the plot?
Speaker 1 (07:52):
I probably will talk about some things that are in
the middle of it.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Okay, okay, so we have we immediately begin with a
bad day for night shot. Even with the movie that
we watched being incredibly dark, we could tell this was
a bad day for night shot in that the sky
was still blue, people were casting shadows.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Even though we could not see anything of the people.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Yeah, so let's just drop talking about how the dark
was there, because I'm just yeah, the inspector. There's an inspector.
They want to post mortem something about a werewolf superstition. Locally,
they're kind of babbling to each other, so there's, uh,
there's a mortician there. They uncover the body and oh
my god, it's Waldemore than Inski.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
When they are outside, there was cat noises.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Oh yeah, there's a because our cats started freaking out
too hearing it. But anyway, they go inside. It's Waldemar Thaninski.
He's on the table and on his chest there's a
scar in the shape of a pentagram, right, just like
there was in the in before. And there's like two
silver bowls through his chest. So you think, okay, wait
(09:03):
a second, if this does follow assignment terror, it doesn't
because he did get shot in his chest twice, right,
he should be dead according to the rules that they
presented an assignment terror. He's dead dead, he was shot.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
There are many of his films after assignment.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
No, that's what I'm saying. And and now a new
rule is introduced about were wolves that the only way
he can die is as is is if the bullets
remain in his body. So now this raises a further
question about were wolf rules that if he's dead, his
(09:46):
body will rot. What happens when the body rots enough
that the bullets fall out, he comes back. He comes back.
You cannot kill this guy unless.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
You're so it goes back to what was it? Uh?
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
I know versus were wolves where you have to put
the were wolf in several different pieces.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Yeah, well that's monster squad rules, because they even mentioned
that in Strippers Versus were Wolves? Have have we talked
about strippers versus were Wolves on Earth versus Soup?
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:16):
I think we have. We have done that episode that
they specifically mentioned monster Squad in that you can do.
You can blow them up. You can blow up were wolves. Absolutely,
they're in little, tiny little bits, but they'll come back
together because that's not a silver bullet death. So that's
why they have to put them all in like little
individual bottles so they can come back together.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
They put them in small ill j Mason jars, but that.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Technically won't kill them. They're just stopped from coming back
like that doesn't kill it anyway. All right, we were
way off on a freaking tangent already, But it's I
don't like it when they constantly change the rules.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Never like that because it's always been a bad cotton
continuity people.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
The doctor. The doctor jokes with the inspector. So there's
this werewolf thing, and you know, if I remove these bullets,
he'll come back to life. And he goes it, takes
the bullets out and goes. Oops. I guess he's not
a werewolf.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
But they go to smoke.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
They just smoke in the autopsy room. They whip out,
their their their smokes light up and Doninsky wakes up
and they're all shocked. It just rips them apart because
he turns right into a were wolf and rips them apart.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Because they did this also on a full moon.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Yeah, which I mean if.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Okay, if you find a werewolf, or you find somebody
with silver bullets in them, the don't do the ortopsy.
Put it in the.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Put it in u's the paperwork for like three days,
then do it later. Just do it later. Just do
it later.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
I had to do this one, or I had to
do this one. Just don't do it that night.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Or don't take the silver bullets out for a few days.
I don't know, like just leave meno Ops, I misplaced
the silver balls.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Haven you've been doing autopsy on them, because I will
go they'll just come back together.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
I know you could. You could well. Actually, if the
silver bullets are still inside him, he wouldn't come back,
and the autopsy scars would still be there.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Yeah, but once you pull, once you.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Pull the silver bullets out, the autopsy scars would go
away and he'd just come right back. Oh, so you
could totally. You could do Darlene Darlene, free organ transplants,
free organ transplants.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Oh, then you're spreading the curse.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
No, no, because you're not bitten by the werewolf. Free
organ transplants. This opens up a giant can of worms.
You need a new liver. Shoot Dninski, Shoot Daninski, open
them up, take his liver out, put it into somebody else,
Close him back up, Remove the bullets. Dninski has saved
(12:58):
the human race. Infinite organ transference.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
I think you're circulating that that that's that the disease.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
You're not bitten by the werewolf. You're not bitten by
the werewolf.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
This one, we don't know if it's bite or not. Actually, yeah, well.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Why would you curse somebody? Why would you give somebody
a curse for just getting an organ transplant to save
their lives. That would suggest a really evil god of
some sort that's like, you know what, you guys found
this really cool loophole where Doninsky's gonna get shot a thousand,
you know, infinite amount of times. And yeah, he might
(13:40):
have been a bad guy, that's why he got cursed,
but that's like his punishment. But he's saving all these lives.
Look at the good that comes from Dninsky. Just going
you need a long lane lane line Chainey Cheney, he'd
be like, look, I can save all these lives. You
need a kidney, no problem. Just just just I'll kiss you,
(14:02):
fall in love with me. Put a couple of bullets,
silver bullets right here, right here in my heart. I'll
get autopsy and you can have my kidney. Then just
have me remove the bullet. Afterwards, I'll grow a new kidney.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Aaron, stop, stop stop, okay, okay, okay, because somebody's gonna
now create that movie and it's going to be horrible.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Oh yeah, I know. It's gonna be like were wolves
in an organ farm, an organ harvesting farm. Oh that's sick. No,
I mean it's funny in a comedy type situation where
you just have one guy going you need a kidney,
no problem, just shoot me. But like, yeah, that that's
that's kind of evil if it's forced, if they're like
just forcing were wolves into it. Anyway, we have werewolf
(14:48):
werewolf vision.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Is he man house and a very hero if he
ended up being able to kill kill a werewolf at
that time?
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Oh yeah, okay, So he's wandering the woods, he finds
a woman walking alone, attacks her. Credits and we get
clips from later in the movie.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
There's bets that are larger than and large cat noises at.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
This point, So we get a man looking at postcards
of Paris.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
In a bar.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
It's a nightclub. It's a bar, nightclub. It's a very strange.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
So we had this discussion because I was like, this
is supposed to probably say that they're in Paris.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Why would there be postcards of Paris in a nightclub
in Paris? See, when I watched that, I totally assumed
that this was just like a lounge, like an ultra
lounge in an airport somewhere else, because why would there
be a rack of Paris postcards in a nightclub in Paris?
(15:53):
That just seems really weird to me.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Maybe during the day it's a they bring out all
the the tourist I don't know garbage, and I forgot
to take that one down.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
So we're introduced to dude number one. His name is like,
his name is Inspector Marcel. He's a piece of shit,
but he's dating Elvira, and Elvira is researching black magic
as ancient superstititions was.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
A student, and she's talking about a vampire.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Yeah, she knows about this vampire, Countess Wandessa Darvula deah.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
And since we're in France, I'm going this is the
because everything that she said, I'm like, you're in the
wrong country.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
That was what well, because it's supposed to be like
she's supposed to be like Elizabeth Bathroy.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Yes, and that's where I.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Know, Eastern Europe. But point is is that they she
does specifically say this Countess Wandessa Darvula whatever blah blah
blah blah blah. She drank the blood of virgins to
stay young, and then she was buried in a secret
place after being like stabbed in the heart with a
silver cross made from the chalice. This this holy chalice
(17:08):
blah blah blah blah. Okay, it just goes on and this.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Is a part where we actually see the the what's
taking place of that, because but our picture didn't come
out well, but we have pictures of it. And I
was like, that's actually a horn.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
She's drinking like virgin blood from like a goat's.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Horn or something, chalice on top of a goat's horn.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Yeah, and it's actually pretty cool. Yeah, I mean it
really is. But she's like, Okay, you know, I have
an assistant named Genevieve, and I immediately go she's fresh meat.
I haven't even we haven't even met her yet. She's
fresh meat. Because here we have our main character, Redhead.
She has a pretty young assistant that Marcel's like, oh,
(17:56):
you better protect her. She's fresh meat. She will be
dead by the end of the movie.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
And Marcel is going to is Tambul to.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Hunt somebody down because he's an inspector with like inner
pol or.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Something with constant istanbul.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
We then go to Elvira and Genevieve, driving towards the
village that they're that they're where they think this ancient
evil woman is buried. They stop looking for gas. They
go into a ruined barn and this is this is
weirdest okay, no, no, no, no, hold on. This is arguably one
(18:33):
of the greatest string in this movie. There are so
many red flags that get thrown up about, like it
doesn't matter that they're women, Let's just let's just go
with Like a guy comes into this situation, I'm gonna
go into a creepy barn where there's no one around.
No one seems to be in this like the outskirts
of the village, and there's dolls hanging from the rafters.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
The dow falls down from the red upside.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
It's tight in the rafters. Yeah, and then you're like, Okay,
you know what, I haven't been able to find gas
in a long time. Is this good? Now? Is a guy? No?
You know what? This is kind of weird. I'm gonna
get eaten. There's cannibals out, I'm walking out, I'm going home.
But they're two young single women on their own in
(19:20):
this situation. How many red flags are there already? Now?
The red flags get far more later on, to the
point where if you were in a modern movie theater,
the audience would be screaming at the screens, going get out,
what is wrong with you? This is?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
It's like in these modern ones, the where you're screaming
there's no don't split up.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Or like why are you going into the barn covered
in blood?
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Why are you having.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Yeah? Why are you having sex in like the an
area that is known for serial killer the killers like
living next door, or like yeah, I mean it's anyway,
they're in this barn. And then suddenly Doninsky shows up.
He's like, hey, how's it going? Babies, you know, and
he's okay, look, Paul Nashy's a charming guy. He's a
(20:18):
handsome guy. You know, back in the early seventies, he's
a handsome guy.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
He U is the place anyway? I have like Les Shawl,
But I don't think that's where somewhere France. It's supposed
to be North France.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
Okay, Okay, So Doninsky's like, hey, how's it going? There
isn't really a lot of gas here. But I'll tell
you what. You can stay at my castle tonight.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
He didn't call it.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
It's a manor his manor home. It's a manor home.
You guys can stay at my manor home tonight and
in the morning I'll get my my like you know,
housekeeper or whatever to drive you into town. We'll get
you some gas. I'll tell you what. I'll even provide
dinner for you. But but I have to warn you
and and more red flags are coming up here. Yes,
(21:03):
you have to be No, He's like, there's no electricity,
there's no phones. So I'm really sorry, but you have
to come back with me, and you'll be in communicado entirely.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
While you see it, because he likes it for writing.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Research. Yeah, research and writing. Okay, single, two single young
women with a man. They just met in a very creepy,
weird area and he's just so happens to be exactly
in this strange barn with dolls hanging from the rafters.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Yeah, I would be weird.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
So what do they do. They kind of look at
him with googly eyes and go.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
See they would have been better off at this point
of having the car run out of gases.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
They have no choice.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Yeah, and they have no choice.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Well, they would still have a choice at this point.
The logical rational thing to do would be to walk away.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
It is to go what is the village still that way?
Speaker 2 (22:04):
And and by.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
The way, one of the things that we didn't understand
because it was broad daylight, almost noon when they filmed it.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, and it's all night.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Time and it's supposed to be close tonight.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Yeah, I don't get it. So anyway, And.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
And by the way, the doll thing made me think
of the island in Mexico, all over that island.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Yeah, he says, you know, I'm a writer. I like
the solitude. I've been living there for six months. And
we oh, I actually have the countess's whole name here,
Countess Wandessa, Darvula d Nadoski, Nadasti, Nadasti, Nadasti. Anyway, he's
(22:53):
also writing about her coincidence. It just so happens that
he also knows a whole bunch about her. And and
Elvira is intrigued by this strange man that just so
happened to be in the creepy barn that just so
happens to have a mannor home that has no electricity
or communication. Anyway, they go to dinner. They go to dinner,
(23:17):
and they're all very impressed. Doninsky is sitting at this
large table table by himself with the two girls. There
is weirdness, okay, And why I describe it as weirdness
is the girls, after dinner leave and They're like, none
of this makes sense because no man would ever set
(23:39):
a dinner dinner setting like that. He used proper forks.
And but then Elvira is like, but no woman would
serve us cold cuts like that. Only men eat gold cuts.
And I'm like, wow, you guys are just being sexists.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
That whole conversation I did not get and I didn't
write a dang thing about it because I was just.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Like, Charlene, do you like cold cuts? Yes, all right,
I make that argument.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
I have actually prepared you a plate of.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
It, Darlene. Have I set a proper table setting?
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Yes you have.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Okay, screw you, Elvira and Jennevie. This whole conversation, do.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
You guys knows he does most of the cooking.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
I love cooking. I love it, Okay. It is a
way to express yourself creativet you know, creatively in a
way that impacts multiple senses at the same time, you know, taste, smell, touch.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
So this is one of those things that made me
made us both go what all right? So making conclusions
out of stuff that doesn't make sense.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
In the cold manner home with no electricity and no telephones,
the girls are in a room, and they just decide
that they're going to go down to their little slips
because you might not need to get the hell out
of there from a serial killer rapist in the middle
of the night.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Yeah, and some was it about their door being weird too.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Yeah. Oh, they get locked in because Doninsky locks them
in right.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
No, that's another because the woman Elizabeth comes in later.
They couldn't lock the door here.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
It is here, it is. Elvira's like, I don't know,
I'm gonna I have a lot to think about. I'm
gonna have trouble getting asleep, and Jennevie goes, I don't know,
take a few sleeping pills or something I always do,
and I just they're everything. Everything they're doing, it's like, whoa.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
At some point I looked over to you and I said, Genevieve,
at some point is going to say I'll be right back,
and it's it's just gonna make me crack up because
they're breaking every horror movie like this is. This is
almost a parody. And then I was like, no, wait,
it's not. It must be satire. The thing is, it's not.
(26:07):
This is literally being played straight. All that is being
played straight. I love this movie. Okay, so so they
try to get asleep. So what happens in the middle
of the night, Darlene, since everyone took sleeping.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Pills, well, she didn't take sleep.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
No, Elvira doesn't take sleeping pills, but she acts like
she did, because in the middle of the night, a
strange woman just enters enters their room and starts strangling
lot Vira, and Elvira just kind of opens her eyes
and doesn't scream, but she lets this woman strangle her again.
(26:48):
I paused the movie. I looked over to you, and
I said, Darlene, does Alvira like this? I don't. This
is what's coming across like, I don't know anymore. I'm
so out of like touch with.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Maybe she couldn't scream because she was being strangled.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
She didn't fight back. She just laid there and went, uh,
like okay, anyway, her.
Speaker 4 (27:14):
Vision fades out, her vision fades out, it fades back in,
and there's Doninsky hovering over her like almost nose to nose,
going good morning.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
I have to apologize for my sister.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
What she didn't tell her about, and she's totally nuts.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
My sister has some problems, and I apologize for it.
Normally I keep her in the barn, but she somehow
got out. Oh okay, wait a yeah, go ahead, are
the other cottage that was.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
The other thing the one girl walked.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Into the Oh yeah, we haven't even gotten to the
barn yet. We haven't got okay, so we already have
strange manner that has no electricity, with a strange man,
no phone, no contact with the outside world, no one
knows where there's any gas.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
And in college with with.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
With no hold on. We haven't even gotten to that.
We haven't even gotten to that. It just so happens
that he has the exact same interests that they do.
All right, there's a strange barn that has dolls hanging.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
From the rafters down the road.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Then a strange woman comes into their bedroom at night
and tries to strangle.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Them, and absolutely mad.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Okay, these are the red flags we have. There will
be more, There will be more, Okay. So Doninsky apologizes,
So Genevieve walks around exploring, Well, Doninsky nol Vira talk
and Doninsky says, his sister has PTSD and needs isolation,
so that's why she stays in the cottage. And I'm
(28:53):
very sorry that she got out normally she's strapped to
her bed with like a gag or whatever. I don't
he doesn't say that, but at this point, what has
to be going through Alvira's head. She's completely calm, it's
no problem.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
She changes very because she's the one that's sitting there
going about not being there and shouldn't be there and that.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
And Elvira's completely okay with all of it, like just immediately.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
But then it flips the other direction.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Okay, So Genevieve now finds a barn, the barn on
the property. Okay, what do you expect when you it's
a barn? It's the barn. What do you expect to
see in a barn of a manor home? Hey? Some animals? Okay,
(29:40):
no problem. This has shackles car like not shackles, manacles
hanging from the rafters that are clearly meant for people.
There is blood sprayed on the walls. What does Geneviev do?
Oh okay, that's that's a little weird. I guess I'll
(30:01):
tell Avira about it later. But all right, there has
to be a rational explanation for this. She just found
like a torture room.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
What would you do at that point.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Oh, I wouldn't have gotten to this point. I wouldn't. No,
I wouldn't have gone back to Doninski's manor home without
electricity and no contact with the outside world, where he
just so happens to appear in the weird barn with
dolls hanging from rafters. Now, no, I wouldn't even have
even gotten to the point of finding the barn with
shackles hanging from the rafters and blood.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
Walk the twenty.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Miles I walk the twenty miles away to get gas
and had you come with me, because I'm not gonna
leave anybody with this dude, there's something wrong with this
whole area. But Genevieve finds the BDSM torture room. Yep, okay,
all right, where was I? Jenn of you is the
(31:00):
attacked by the sister again?
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Jennifered or Jenevieve? Jennevieve?
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Was you've in in the shackle BDS torture room?
Speaker 1 (31:10):
It's not again because the first.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
Time, I guess stole Vira. Yeah, because Genevieve slept through
the first one of the first attack because she had
taken far too many sleeping pills. Oh you know what
the sister probably choked her first and said, oh, she's
already dead, and then it just so anyway Genevieve's attacked.
Doninsky just kind of shows up and says, hey, sister Elizabeth, chill,
(31:37):
chill it out. You need to leave these girls alone.
There are guests, and then like the sisters just kind
of shrugs and then walks away, like okay, whatever, what
the hell? Okay, look, I will fully admit there is
some bonkers, bonker ship mess that makes no sense. Is
(32:00):
this is nuts, and I love it. Okay, So Genevieve
wants to leave at this.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Point, Yeah, don't blame her.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Good for you, ma'am. You finally have figured out that
it probably would be a good idea to leave, Okay.
Elvira and Genevieve look at Daninski's research on ancient churches
and this this woman, and they're like, you know what,
this tomb where the countess is is probably at this
crossroads because they always used to like summon demons at
(32:28):
crossroads and then like pin witches in crossroads. So because
they can't be like consecrated ground, blah blah blah, bullshit, bullshit,
black bullshit, and so Geneviev's like, well, I guess we
could stay for a little bit longer to open up
the you know, the grave of the demon. She doesn't
say that, yeah, you know, no she doesn't. But Genevieve's like,
you know, maybe we can't stay. Okay, I'm okay with that.
(32:53):
So they go to it and oh god, so they
find like her tomb, the Countess's tomb says on it
no one must disturb her rest until the day of
the last judgment. Okay, you're dealing with a countess that
is supposedly a vampire, has all these evil rumors about her.
(33:18):
You are supposedly archaeology students. What do they do open
up the grave with no documentation, no cameras, nothing like that.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Right, Well, they have the camera, it's taken afterwards with
the dead body.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
Well yeah, but they don't take any pictures there. So
they open up, open up.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
The after reading what it said.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Okay, I at that point look like instructions. I don't care. Right,
their archaeology or history students, they'd be documenting it all.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Right, Yeah, they would have got.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
They would just said like, oh, that's a weird saying,
and then moved on and I would have bought that.
The point is that they see.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
If it wasn't in English, and if it wasn't being
able to be read, and then you take the pencil and.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
The yeah, you'd get a rubbing of it or something.
So they open it up and Elvira wants nothing to
do with it, but Doninsky sees a silver cross and
he smiles, and it's a silver cross through calviral leaves.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
Before they open up the coffin, she refuses to see
the coffin. They open up the tomb, but then she
walks off before they open up the coffin.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
Okay, so they see the silver cross in there, and
Genevieve reaches in. Because any good archaeology student knows that
grave robbing is a completely acceptable form.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Of study, she must have studied under.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Look Indiana Jones, No, don't, don't start with that, because
Indiana Jones, yes, is a grave robber, but at least
at least he's doing it for reasons. There's no real
reason to this, except like Jenevie.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Have to cut her hand and need on a vampire
after taking the cross that she knows it's supposed to steak.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
The steak the vampire no, she doesn't just bleed on
the vampire. She bleeds in the vampire's mouth mouth. Oh,
oh my god, Oh my god. All right, So.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
And then then we during this time, Elvirah walks walks
off and through this old ruin ruin of a church
or something.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Yeah, and there's like there's like a zombie inside in
dark robes.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
There's what it looks like a monk to me, I
didn't we couldn't see his face until we watched the
we got the pictures. Yeah, because, by the way, that
is a cool ass mask.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
It is really good, really good. But it's like in
weird slow mo. And this monk zombie attacks Elvira, it
chases after her. Taninsky arrives and stabs it with the
silver cross done like it just kind of disintegrates. Okay,
(36:17):
So that night, a hand pushes through the soil and
Genevieve looks out the window to the night.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
And with whispers in her head.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
Yeah, because the Countess is now in Geneviev's head because
technically the Countess fed from Genevieve in a weird way,
so I guess Genevieve can hear her voice through the ether.
I don't know. So Genevieve goes out and the Countess
drinks from her arm and at this point, okay, I
(36:49):
get why at this point Genevieve wouldn't leave, because theoretically
she should be under the countess's power. But let's be
fair again. Elvira sees a zombie monk attack her, and
all of a sudden, Doninsky goes out and steaks the
zombie monk, and it like just disintegrades. Why are you
(37:09):
staying here? All of these things adding up are really
kind of like I think we need to get some
priests and maybe the army. I don't know. I need
an old priest and a young priest. This is it's
it's why. Let's let's go find van Helsing. Doninsky, are
(37:31):
you some sort of vampire s lawyer? No, ma'am, I'm
actually a were wolf. Okay, I'm done. I'm done. I'm
an immortal werewolf who just can't be killed unless I'm
shot through the heart twice by silver bullets from a
woman who loves me and wants to die with me,
as long as the bullets stay inside. Damn it, the rules.
(37:57):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (37:57):
Well, Jennevie gets turned into our bad Empire. Yeah, walder
Man sends Elvira with the creepy dude.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Oh no, we haven't gotten to that yet, Darlene, haven't
even gotten to that. We have another big red flag
because Elvira finds Elizabeth Doninsky, Waldemar's sister impaled on the
wrought iron fence.
Speaker 1 (38:23):
Oh that's right, it's.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
Now been murders open. No, she's dead.
Speaker 1 (38:31):
Yes, her head is in the pointy thing. Yea.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
So Elvira finds her. Genevieve is clearly turned. She asks
Elvira to join her. Join me, Alvira, we shall know pleasures.
We shall know pleasure in a.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
Smoky a ice.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Yeah, it's it's it's actually.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Really that is filled with dry ice on the floor.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
It looks, it looks great.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Why would you walk down a dog on?
Speaker 2 (39:02):
So Doninsky comes out with the silver cross and like
turns her away, turns Genevieve away, and Elvira's like, I'm
okay to stay, really, I'm okay, you know, I want
to get back to that corridor.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
Would you walk down a corridor that has dry ice fog,
a corridor that's supposed to be inside a building? Would
you walk down a corridor with.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
I'll be fair about this. If Genevieve's turned, which she is,
she's a vampire. At this point, she's in Elvira's head.
She's putting the Whammy on her, so Elvira's not in
firm control of her own actions at this point. It's
only when Doninsky comes out with the Silver Cross and
turns her that Elvira really comes back to her senses.
That does not again, does not make sense that Elvira's
(39:50):
like totally chill with everything that's happening again, right, But
her coming out into that weird corridor, I'm like, I
can buy I can buy this.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
See I would see that the creepy stuff on the
floor before I saw them, before I even seen And
go uh uh because all my picture goes back to
is the girl with the flip flops in the movie
Evolution and she's walking in worms.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
Okay, well it doesn't again like the wammy. She's got
the whammy on her.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (40:30):
At this point, Donsky tells Elvira to leave, that he'll
fight this himself, but Elvira refuses to leave and then
immediately professes her love of Doninsky. I love you, I
love you.
Speaker 1 (40:41):
What happened to uh Marcel, Oh.
Speaker 2 (40:43):
We forgot about inspector Marcel inspect her boyfriend in my
freaking notes. No, Darlene, Aaron and Darlene have not forgotten
the movie forgot, but you know what the he does
remember in a little bit in a little bed.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
Poor guy.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
He no Elvira goes into town with a creepy dude,
with a really creepy dude. Okay, yes, okay.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
There is no no, no. This isn't red flag anymore.
Speaker 2 (41:15):
This is a blinking neon red flag. This this guy
is clearly a rapist.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
Yeah, he's not just on the sex offender.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
List, he is the sex offender list. He is driving
her into town, talking about how beautiful her hair is,
how her hair smells so good? Can I have some
of that hair? And he's like just leering at her
and complimenting every single thing about her.
Speaker 1 (41:48):
I'll tell you, guys, this creeped me out.
Speaker 2 (41:51):
And he creeped me out.
Speaker 1 (41:53):
I would have probably opened the door and rolled out
of the v call this and ran myself.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
All the way to the Again. I looked over, I
paused the movie, and I looked over at you, and
I said, this man's going to attempt to rape on
her at some point in this movie. I don't want
to see it, but it's going to happen, Darling. Did
it happen, Yes, yep. Now it's attempted and we see
no nudity and there's only a little bit of physical
(42:24):
touching in it. Being that like we have a hero
come in and save save the day. Point is is,
at the very least they set up how creepy this
guy is. But what they did not do was have
a woman actually go this guy. This guy is setting
off every creepy everybody's creep sense within a freaking one
(42:50):
hundred kilometers has to be going off from this guy.
Speaker 1 (42:53):
And why didn't Waldemar.
Speaker 2 (42:57):
Deal with this guy?
Speaker 1 (42:58):
Why was he dealing with his this guy?
Speaker 2 (43:00):
This guy's like the groundskeeper. Yes, you'd think that Waldemar
would have his creep detector going off with this dude.
This guy does not hide the filth. That's what's weird. Okay.
So anyway, she goes into town. She wants to go
to the post office, but like mister creepy dude says, oh,
(43:22):
you know, there is no post office, but there's a
lovely butcher that I can take you to. He cuts
the meat really really well, and I'm like, oh my god.
It just keeps going on and on. This guy he
literally would rather take her to a butcher to see
animals being slaughtered, and he thinks that's a hot date.
(43:47):
I okay, I honestly have to think this movie is
satire because this is so over the top and and ludicrous.
It's ludicrous, right, And I was even laughing at that point.
You were laughing. You were like, why the hell is
he talking about taking her to a butcher? And she's
(44:09):
just grinning and nodding, like, Okay, I get it, Like
you're trapped in the car with this guy and you're
not wanting to set him off right at that. I
get that reaction. But like you would think that once
she got out of the car, she'd run or say
something to someone.
Speaker 1 (44:26):
Run the walk, because I would kind of would have
treated him like a bear. I wouldn't have ran, because
I figure he'd want to chase, especially after the butcher comes.
Speaker 2 (44:41):
So Dosky. We get to go back to Doninsky on
the on the on the manor home grounds, we see
him dragging the body of his sister. This movie just
keeps going he's dragging the body of his sister to
a shallow grave.
Speaker 1 (44:58):
It's not that shiit.
Speaker 2 (45:01):
Jello. He's like, I love you, I love my dear sister.
I've been taking care of you for so long, chops
off her head, swings it into the grave, and then
steaks her body, tosses, pushing it in with his foot.
Speaker 1 (45:21):
Then we find out why he needs why he took
the cross.
Speaker 2 (45:25):
Out because now that's the only thing that can kill him.
I don't know the rules change, but him dragging his sister,
beheading her and staking her is because she didn't die
from being drained. She was thrown onto a damn wrought
iron fence and her head had a point through it. Okay,
(45:48):
night fallows Genevieve and the Countess stock Elvira, but she
makes it back to Doninski's house in time. Elvira's told
to stay in the lodge and lock herself up because
the moon is about to rise, and Doninsky changes.
Speaker 1 (46:02):
And that's where he tells her about needing the cross.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
So the vampires get in and pierce Elvira's neck. The
Countess drinks blood from the chalice, and then Genevieve like,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (46:17):
She's Elvira is bit by Genevieve.
Speaker 2 (46:21):
Yeah, and then they dance together and it's this really
weird scene where you're like, wow, did they just win?
But then Alvira wakes up It was all a dream,
not the whole movie, just the attack.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
On her, but it isn't.
Speaker 2 (46:36):
But it isn't a dream. It's the vampires getting into
her head and like trying to convince her of all
of it as well. It's a dream, but it isn't.
Speaker 1 (46:46):
A dream because she had.
Speaker 2 (46:51):
So is it a dream?
Speaker 1 (46:53):
I don't know that the movie was dark and I
couldn't see.
Speaker 2 (46:56):
What was going on. Uh. At this point, Doninsky confesses
to Elvira that he's a werewolf. He says that the
silver closs the cross that they found is what must
be used to kill him, but Elvira now wants to
stay and destroy the vampires again. Genevieve visits alvirah and uh,
(47:18):
is this a dream as well? I can I don't know.
Doninsky's attacked by Genevieve, but he defeats her. He finds
Elvira bitten at this point, and the Countess flees the
rising Sun into like these catacombs. Doninsky says no ill
effects for alvirus since he killed Genevieve at this point,
and Genevieve is the one that's been like feeding on
(47:40):
her like directly, so he's like, don't worry, you won't change.
I just killed Genevieve. Well, bitch, why didn't you just
kill the countess? Because the countess turned Genevieve And if
you killed the countess then Genevieve wouldn't have been a vampire.
Speaker 1 (47:54):
But she he couldn't find the there's there's a lot
of conic combs, and they can't find the countess because
he's been looking for the He goes, and we have
another full moon, so a whole month went by.
Speaker 2 (48:07):
I don't know, so he he. He tells Elvira, don't
worry about Genevieve, my dear. I freed her soul. She's
no longer living in sin. Pray for her, Pray for her.
What what is happening anymore? Is this movie?
Speaker 1 (48:24):
It gets worse?
Speaker 2 (48:25):
Am I alive? I don't know. It's just weird. Then
then like, okay, no big deal. Dinsky and Elvira are
taking a nice stroll. They want to explore the underground
tubs looking for the countess, but Dninsky warns Alvira that
tonight is another full moon again.
Speaker 1 (48:40):
Yeah, it has, and this is why we have the
chains up in the wear thing, and.
Speaker 2 (48:44):
That he must be chained up. You must chain me up,
my dear, otherwise I might hurt you. Villagers that the
villager from earlier who gave Elvira the ride shows up,
knocks Elvira out and says that she will be his
Oh yes, I will smell your hair every night. But
(49:07):
at least Dininski breaks out of his chains, attacks the
guy and kills him. Yep, that's it, guys.
Speaker 1 (49:14):
Oh, but it gets It gets funny with the peer
of peers girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (49:19):
Because you know what, you know what's hold on. We're
not even there yet. You know what's always really nice
to do after being assaulted with the intent to be
raped sex with your savior and they're in bed smoking.
Speaker 1 (49:37):
There's something about a funeral service. I have this this
note that says funeral village.
Speaker 2 (49:45):
Yeah, they need to do a funeral service for Genevieve
or something. But anyway, He's like, our love has no future,
but I want you to know that I'll treasure this
moment forever.
Speaker 1 (49:56):
What sappy dog one love Did they get the that
one out of?
Speaker 2 (50:01):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (50:02):
Look that is that is like the worst tagline that
you can ever get, even in a crappy little love face.
Speaker 2 (50:10):
Okay, look, we're not even done with the plot yet.
I have to say something between between like assignment terror,
assignment terror and this. These movies are so bonkers, weird
and funny because you just don't know what the hell's happening.
What's gonna happen next? I don't know. Are they just
(50:30):
gonna are they gonna like tear each other's heads off
in passion like praying manuses? I don't know. You don't
know what's going to happen.
Speaker 1 (50:38):
That would be a wait for him to get killed.
Speaker 2 (50:42):
Quick come back. It's not a silver But the point
is I love these movies because there's just so ludicrous. Okay, ludicrous.
I'll admit their faults, have no doubt.
Speaker 1 (50:55):
Okay, but this is where Marcel go comes in and
talks to Peers girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (51:03):
No, no, okay, well yeah we have we have we
have inspector boyfriend showing up. But Daninsky is attacked by
a random dude from the village who says, you killed
my sister. It's this woman from the beginning of the
movie that he stalked and killed and now I'm gonna
kill you. So this random dude like comes up with
a knife and like stabs Dninsky, and Daninsky just sort
(51:25):
of like he.
Speaker 1 (51:25):
Doesn't even stab because he's wearing this leather and it's
got it just bounces off his le another jacket.
Speaker 2 (51:31):
Like Dninsky looks at this guy like, what are you doing? Man?
Are you too weak? Can you not like stab me?
It's not like, okay, look, we know that Dninsky is
not invulnerable, right, he can be injured. He just heals.
This guy is so weak he cannot put a dagger
(51:55):
through a leather jacket. And Dninsky isn't even threatened at
all by this guy. He just stands there looking at him,
going what the hell man? And he pushes him away
to go back off, and this guy falls on his
own dagger and dies. And Doninsky's like, well, shit, I
think I.
Speaker 1 (52:14):
Have a person next to my sister.
Speaker 2 (52:17):
I'll have to bury another person next to my sister.
Do I need to steak him and pet him? I
don't know. It's tradition, now, I guess she doesn't.
Speaker 1 (52:24):
We don't get that.
Speaker 2 (52:25):
Damn that would have been amazing him, just like beheading
him staking and then kicking his body into a shallow crane.
Speaker 1 (52:33):
But I like this. Pierre. Pierre's girlfriend is at the
she's the bartender.
Speaker 2 (52:40):
What a weird scene, okay, because we're a weird scene there, and.
Speaker 1 (52:45):
She's she's wearing lipstick like some she.
Speaker 2 (52:49):
Has a Cupid's bow lip on, so to me it
looks very nineteen forties. And I remarked on that she's
this dark haired beauty and she's the bartender.
Speaker 1 (52:59):
She's so hell she looks like a dog on vampire herself.
Speaker 2 (53:03):
So okay, how do I even describe this conversation? This
is a conversation that you would have only with somebody
that you are very intimately familiar with, in that it
is an incredibly intimate conversation that this woman just starts
having with a random guy, talking about like.
Speaker 1 (53:26):
His her boyfriend has not come back.
Speaker 2 (53:30):
That he loves this with sex and blah blah, and
I'm like, what the what the hell is happening? What's
going on?
Speaker 1 (53:37):
And he she tells Marcel to go to the cottage,
and I went cottage, question mark, question mark? Okay, castle
because it's been a castle okay, okay, but it's been
a manor home and it's now been a cottage.
Speaker 2 (53:54):
So inspector boyfriend shows up and didn't he explain to
inspect a boyfriend that Elvira loves him and they have
a special connection, and inspect her boyfriend says, oh, look,
you need to tell that You need to tell Alvira.
You need to tell her that she's coming with me.
Otherwise I'm going to pursue the investigation to all these
(54:15):
murders that have happened in the area. And I and
I saw all those fresh graves out there. You really
don't want me inspecting and and and and coming in
and doing an investigation on this deed Dninsky. And Danky's like,
you know what, Yeah, you're right, I'll tell Vira to leave.
My love for her means nothing, because I just don't
want to go to jail, even though going to jail
(54:37):
would actually likely solve most of his problems because he's
always he's he would always be locked up during the
full moon. Now Doninsky doesn't really care. He's just like, okay, fine.
Speaker 1 (54:47):
But who would they put him with? And then all
of a sudden he'd rip apart.
Speaker 2 (54:51):
It would be one full moon where it would happen.
Then everyone would take him seriously. They just throw him
in a freaking bucket and never let him out, Like
that's it right, All his problems would be solved, he'd
never hurt anybody else. He'd want to die, and and
he'd be like, you wanta, you wanta you want to
execute me for all my crimes. That's fine, I'll just
come back. You have to do it this way, and
(55:13):
then somebody would do it right.
Speaker 1 (55:16):
Well, I wonder what would happen if you just shot
him with and put him in cement.
Speaker 2 (55:22):
Well, as long as the bullets went into him, if
you freeze dryin up maybe and then like put him
in a vacuum chamber so his body wouldn't rot, then
the bullets would stay in.
Speaker 1 (55:34):
Right and then and then case I'm in uh, concrete.
Speaker 2 (55:38):
And concrete launch them into space. I don't know, Like
the rules now are so freaking like it doesn't matter anyway,
So inspect your boyfriend is driving Elvira out, the Countess
throws a body at the car, like just whips a
person's course.
Speaker 1 (55:54):
Oh that's what that means that I've got on my notes.
Speaker 2 (55:58):
She laughs as boyfriend fires gun at her. She's just
because bullets are bouncing off her. She's a vampire, Like, okay,
big deal. So the Countess takes inspect her boyfriend and
Elvira and chains them to the wall of a crypt,
and the Countess says that Elvira's blood will make the
dark lord rejoice.
Speaker 1 (56:17):
Okay, her master is coming.
Speaker 2 (56:19):
The Devil's like a shadow on the wall is like
the devil is coming in. It's actually pretty cool. Doninsky
comes in with his silver Cross, making the Countess back off.
He unchains Alvira, who un chains inspector boyfriend.
Speaker 1 (56:33):
Doninsky changes the what I put and attacks her master.
Speaker 2 (56:41):
Yeah, attacks your master. Then rips up the count as
she melts the bones and maggots, and then Elvira kills
Doninsky by stabbing him with the silver cross.
Speaker 1 (56:49):
He dies and daily and leaves with Marcel and they.
Speaker 2 (56:54):
Walk into the misty morning daylight the end, like.
Speaker 1 (56:58):
How do you know that's daylight? Because I haven't figured
out daylight or darkness. That is number one bad things.
The other one is this movie. If you were a person,
this movie would not exist because you would go if.
Speaker 2 (57:18):
Any normal human being was in this situation, it would
never happen. And it's not because it's an idiot plot.
It's not because it's an idiot plot. It's that it's
like an oblivious plot, or like an ignorant plot. It's
like a one to be oblivious to all the problems.
Speaker 1 (57:35):
That are there, or blinders one, or so much needing
wanting something that you ignore all the I don't know
all those instincts. You know your animal instincts too.
Speaker 2 (57:52):
I honestly think that Elvira and Genevieve must have been
on tranquilizers the entire time, like that's the only reason
they'd be reacting this way. But then, like, why does
Elvira have trouble going to sleep? They must be on tranquilizers,
like incredible amounts of like LSD and tranquilizers, so like
nothing seems real. Everything is just like a Smurf cartoon
(58:14):
to them. I don't know that's the only explanation. Okay, look,
I love this movie. It's very clear. I love this
because it's just so insane. It's insane you never know
what's going to happen. Yes, does the plot make no sense? Again,
just like Assignment Terror, it's full of nonsense. It should
(58:34):
not occur the way it does. But I love.
Speaker 1 (58:38):
It, you love it. I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (58:41):
What works the most though in.
Speaker 1 (58:42):
This I actually, once we saw pictures, I gotta get
on for the makeup. I love how the vampire rises
from her crept.
Speaker 2 (58:51):
Oh yeah, she's amazing.
Speaker 1 (58:53):
Even in the dark ones.
Speaker 2 (58:54):
It comes up when she dies. It is just like
a pile of bones and maggot. That's shocking, really really good.
Speaker 1 (59:04):
The monks face is, like I said, is just the
pictures of.
Speaker 2 (59:10):
It that we found are just great, great great.
Speaker 1 (59:13):
The bad problem is why watching this I did not
get to see that. I did not get to see that.
I did not get to see that.
Speaker 2 (59:21):
I love the pacing. It works. You might might not
agree that the movie is good. I will, I will,
I will. I will be fair and objective and say
the movie is not good.
Speaker 1 (59:34):
What would you write it?
Speaker 2 (59:35):
Hold on? I'm not there. But the pacing it keeps
you engaged all the way through it. You're you're you
were always engaged. You gave me a look, Darlene, you
were always engaged in this movie. You were always like,
oh my god, what what is this? Hold on? What
does that mean? That means that this, this and this
just happened. Oh my god, I can't believe this happened.
(59:56):
You know, you were always engaged. Look at how many
notes you have.
Speaker 1 (01:00:00):
I have notes because I couldn't figure it out. You
were engaged, and some of them I had to go
put up, like when I went back and went Elvira
and have sex.
Speaker 2 (01:00:15):
So the point I'm trying to make, Darlene is, in
most movies you say I don't know what's going on.
Ninety percent of movies you don't know what's going on.
Speaker 1 (01:00:24):
The really bad ones, I throw the book down and go.
Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
But the point is that even in the movies where
you throw the book down and say I'm not taking
notes anymore, you still have a page and a half
of notes. You have two and a half pages of notes.
Speaker 1 (01:00:39):
I have two pages of note okay.
Speaker 2 (01:00:41):
Two pages of notes two, which is twice what your
normal notes are. You were engaged, so don't argue that
you weren't.
Speaker 1 (01:00:50):
But he goes woofy how many times in this movie?
Speaker 2 (01:00:54):
Three or four?
Speaker 1 (01:00:55):
Any I can understand when the full moon comes, it's
about three days.
Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
Yeah, okay, it has to be over at least a
couple months, Yes, at least a couple months but anyway,
the pacing is good. I would even go so far
as to say the costumes are good. The costuming department
did a very good job in this. I think the
set design was very good because the set dressing was fantastic.
(01:01:22):
It looked it looked very good. The acting, no, of course,
not that did not work. The plot did not work,
just like operating assignment. Terror did not work. But I
can't really think of anything else that truly didn't work
in this. It was entertaining, It was fun. It made
us laugh, probably unintentionally, but it still did.
Speaker 1 (01:01:46):
You weren't supposed to be laughing at what was going
laughing at, especially when you're like, girl, why aren't you running?
Speaker 2 (01:01:54):
Well, that was that was part of the fun of this, though,
going we're at like red flag number twelve, what's going
to be the next thing? They just completely ignore and
then like you didn't you never thought that it would
actually just continue to rise the level of like this
is terrible. Any rational human being would have left, like
days ago.
Speaker 1 (01:02:14):
I would have been out that dog gone barn, the
barn with the doll hit her in the head, and
I would have been like, it was only one dollar that.
Speaker 2 (01:02:25):
You see yeah, but it doesn't matter, like, what the hell?
And then there's just this guy just shows up in
the middle of the barn goes, yeah, I love walking
through here. So you like walking through the abandoned barn
with dolls hanging from the freaking rafters and you never
took it down? What the hell's wrong with you? But
then when Genevieve finds the BDSM sex dungeon that he
(01:02:48):
likes getting chained up in during the full moon, oh man,
all those red flags. Okay, look, I recommend the film,
just like I recommended Assignment Terror. I don't It's not
a good film, but it was a lot of fun
and just like a Simon Terror, Darlene does not recommend it,
but I recommend it because it's fun to watch. It's
(01:03:09):
not a good movie.
Speaker 1 (01:03:11):
But I don't think they're gonna find one that they
can watch.
Speaker 2 (01:03:14):
Out of ten, Darling, what would you give it.
Speaker 1 (01:03:19):
Four?
Speaker 2 (01:03:20):
Oh so higher than me with Assignment Terror? Like, I
don't know. Well, okay, I think you rated Assignment Terror
lower than four. See why would you rate it four?
Speaker 1 (01:03:37):
It seemed to have more more connection.
Speaker 2 (01:03:42):
Okay, fair because.
Speaker 1 (01:03:45):
Terror felt like to me it was several plots trying
to fight against each.
Speaker 2 (01:03:53):
Other, and this had one coherent idea. Yeah it did.
I actually give this a f. I admit that it's
not good, and I will admit that my rating is
higher than it likely should be because of how ludicrous
I found the movie and just how much I enjoyed
laughing at it. But that's what those out of ten
(01:04:17):
ratings are like. I'm not saying the movie's good. I'm not,
but I think it's closer to a five for me.
Speaker 1 (01:04:24):
Oh and the series is called Hombre Lobo.
Speaker 2 (01:04:29):
Series, Humbre. I want to watch more of them.
Speaker 1 (01:04:32):
I'm basically human Wolf series.
Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
I want to watch more because I have to think
that they just continue to get crazier and just more wacky.
Speaker 1 (01:04:45):
I don't think this is more crazy than that other one.
Speaker 2 (01:04:48):
Supposedly this is the most successful out of all of.
Speaker 1 (01:04:51):
Them, though. Okay, well.
Speaker 2 (01:04:54):
It's not. I liked it, damn it. I liked it. Okay,
so maybe we should just leave it there. Our next
episode is a five or a ten, folks. So what
do you think we're gonna do, Darling? What are we
gonna do?
Speaker 1 (01:05:08):
What?
Speaker 2 (01:05:09):
Invisible Agent from nineteen forty two.
Speaker 1 (01:05:12):
Okay, so I'm Aaron, I'm darling, good evening.
Speaker 2 (01:05:16):
Watching the skies. At no point in your rambling, incoherent
response were you even close to anything that could be
considered a rational thought.
Speaker 3 (01:05:28):
