Welcome to denim wrapped nightmares tipsy exchange Podcast where we explore the supernatural series episode by episode.
over drinks, we'll discuss the lore of gore and what we adore about the Winchesters and their adventures.
I'm burly, and I'm a new fan of the series.
I'm LA, and I'm here along for the ride. Now, let's get tipsy.
Hello, la Hello Burley. We've been asked by a listener to start saying what we're drinking. Oh, during the episode. Oh, y'all are gonna be so excited. We were really creative today with our beverages. I'm drinking a black cherry white claw.
And I'm drinking a mango one.
Oh, my. So clever. Now, I also do have to say thank you to rain for telling me there was not going to be a trip through the season. Because today's episode, I definitely would have thought it was the trickster. I could see that, that he like changed inspiration from Weekly World News to monster movies. But since I knew it at the beginning that that was that possible. I was able to be like, Okay, that's not what's coming. If I hadn't known I feel like I wouldn't have enjoyed this
episode as much as I did. It was so good. But before we talk this week, remind us where we were last week. Last week or last episode. Yeah.
What was the name?
I don't remember that amorphous and
metamorphosis. Sam and Dean discovered that Jack Montgomery was a real guru. A creature that starts as a human but changes into like a cannibal flesh eating monster. He didn't Jack didn't know what was going on until he started, you know, wanting to eat people. Right? So they let him in on it and told them Sam felt like he understood what it was like to be a victim of like a twisted destiny. So he tried to reason with Jack and like, convince him that he could, you know, control the
urges and not eat people. But Dane didn't agree. And unfortunately, Jack proved that. Dan was right. And then they killed him.
It was it was a it was a hard episode to watch. Yeah. Yeah. A lot of uncomfortable seeing. So this was a really nice little palate cleanser that came to us. Definitely. Today's episode is monster movie. It's the fifth episode of season four. And it originally aired on October 16 2008. We open up and it's black and white. We have a black and white WB logo fully committed to the monster movie theme, the entire episode.
Credits and everything. Sam and Dean are driving into Pennsylvania to investigate a vampire mystery. Dean is really excited to have a case. You know, we're getting back to our old school ways. You know, he said something about you know, it's clear black and white case.
I I did write that I like post hell Dean's spirit. He's a little more lighthearted and carefree. Yeah, it's just a little different. A little different.
He actually talks about it a little bit later in the episode too. But I agree Deathwish, you know, almost bitter mentality that we were seeing in season three. Like that's not there anymore. Sam is kind of distracted though. He's like, I mean, yeah, I'm excited to have a case but it's the fucking apocalypse. Doesn't seem as important as it once did. And Dave just kind of points out, okay, well, we can't save the world today. We can go save
these people, though. And so Sam was kind of like, okay, yeah, you're right. I love that. As they're driving in. There's a sign that said welcome to Pennsylvania. And when the lightning flashed, the sign changed to Transylvania. I thought that was a nice little touch. A ton of playing with light and shadows throughout this entire episode. Yeah, even though it was super campy, and obviously meant to be funny. It was also incredibly artistic.
Yeah. I don't know if that had anything to do with serge the sweetness or who did all of the stuff with the light play but really creative. They pull into town and find themselves in the middle of Oktoberfest. Dean is really excited about this. He wants to go get a giant pretzel. They're in their suits. Sam's looking awfully good. His suit was fitting. Well, yes. look real nice. They're introducing themselves to people as agents, Angus and young, which is a call out to ACDC lead guitarist,
hello, shout out. They see a sheriff and go talk to him. And the sheriff takes them to the morgue. Or he tells them to go to the morgue. I can't remember who's showing them in the morgue. So there is the sheriff. Okay, so at the morgue, they're looking at the body of this first victim, the one who's been attacked by I have a vampire, and that there's a witness who straight up said it was a vampire. The victim is Marissa right, as they pull her out on
the drawer. She's not a mangled mess with like the shark bite marks all over her. She looks perfectly fine except for two giant puncture marks on her neck. So Sam and Dean are both looking at each other incredibly confused because this is not what they were expecting to see at all. They asked about the witness and the sheriff tells them Yeah, it's ed ed Brewer, you're going to be able to find him at the tavern. But he's not exactly reliable. They head to the tavern to go hunt down Edie.
And while they're there, Dean picks up flirting with a waitress that he saw walking around in town earlier. Her name's Jamie. And she points out where Ed is. They go sit down to talk to him. Edie is played by Michael Eklund, who also plays Bobo Del Rey in sci fi channels. Wynonna herb. Oh, I recognized him immediately. And he fully committed to this part.
Isn't there an epsilon that works on the show? Edlund Edlund
Ben Edlund actually wrote this episode. Okay. Maybe they're cousins?
No, I I really thought it was excellent. I don't know what I was thinking.
They find him gulping from this like giant Stein of beer with like the little lid on
top. It was actually like an impressive looking Stein. Yeah, it was pretty. It was
really cute. Oh, he was opening the lid, taking a gold and then closing the lid with every single drink. Oh, yeah. He's very animated and telling them this story about how he was leaving the bar. He was cutting through the park and he noticed a couple over by the swing set. And at first he thought they were kissing. But then he noticed that the girl was actually struggling. And as he approached them, the guy looks at him and is like in a Dracula costume. And he said he said
something like a vampire. Like, oh, stay away from me mortal. And it was like doing the arm across his face and everything. And I loved the exchange, where he was like, you know, he looked like a vampire. They were like, so was his skin. Like he's like, like a vampire. Like everything he had to say back was like a vampire. Yeah, I loved that, Sam. You know, it seemed like Sam was almost trying not to laugh during the interaction. I don't know if that was Sam or if that was a little bit of Jared
coming through. But it was a really cute scene. I really enjoyed it. After talking with Edie, they decide that this is this isn't for them. There's something else going on here is clearly not really a vampire. This isn't our kind of thing. While Sam and Dean are walking up to the bar. Jamie, the bartender that Dean has been flirting with has been talking with another waitress who we find out later her name is Lucy.
She inexplicably blots her lipstick and then just like throws the napkin on the bar. Gross. And she does this throughout the entire episode. It was weird.
It was annoying. Yeah. We didn't care for that. And there's no explanation for it,
though. It's like don't What are you doing going on? Putting on that much lipstick that you're needing to blot it that frequently throughout the day, but it ends up being important later. So whatever. And they do make it a point for us to see Sam like pick up the napkin and look at it like what the hell and like throw it down.
Dean is flirting with Jamie Moore and I like that she's not falling for it right away like clearly she has eyes and could tell he's attractive but she's not swooning over him right away or anything. So I I liked this Jamie character a little bit. Yeah. Dean is trying to get her to go home with them. And she says, You know, I'm not going home with the guy from the bar on the first date. Sorry. He says that he's not sticking around town because this case it's not weird enough for him
and Sam. We cut to a couple making out in a car and there's like the fog around the car.
Oh, yeah. I was like perfect. Like the big moon in the tree. Fog. Yeah. The music. Yeah.
I thought we were going to see the vampire that head had described Yeah, but that's not what we see. It ends up being like the wolf man like the werewolf old school werewolf with the giant hands and the fur all over the body, creeping through the forest, and rips this guy out of the car. And let me tell you the guy. I mean, he was a creep. Oh, yeah. He was using the old blue balls excuse for pressuring his date into doing something that it seemed like she didn't particularly
want to do. The window shatters and he gets pulled out of the window. The girls screaming and we hear the noises and that's when I realized we haven't had a blitz blue jet this season. I totally thought we were gonna get one whenever we were hearing those noises of the body getting torn apart. Nothing. The next day. Sam and Dean are talking to the young lady that was in the
car. Her name is Anne Marie. And she's confirming with them that she saw Rick, her boyfriend get ripped out of the car and tells them it was a werewolf. So it's kind of a similar conversation to what they had just had with Ed. Yeah. Where she says no, like it was a werewolf.
I like how they, like have any hesitation. It'll be like, You're not gonna believe me or like, they're just like, so bad. No, that's what it was. Yeah,
I know what I saw. Yep, she's just slurping on her drink. It was like, I had the furry hands, the giant claws, the furry face, like all of it, it was it was wearable, just matter of fact, spits that out. So now Sam and Dean are intrigued. And they're planning to stick around and other day they go to examine the body. So we're following through the similar steps that they did the day before. But I wouldn't say what they got to take a peek at was necessarily a body
group. So gross samples at a pencil or something and started digging around in it. And there's just the sound, goopy sounds are so gross.
You can use some of it to scoop it up. And since it was in black and white, it looked like brisket or something on the end of his pen
grows,
you got to or the fuck up. But just like with the other case with the previous victim, they're noticing like something's not adding up here. Because the heart was still there completely intact. And according to Sam, werewolves never leave the heart behind.
Didn't know that.
I think they mentioned something about that in the episode heart.
Oh, yeah. That would make for
the sheriff. The helpful Sheriff also pops in while they're looking at the body and reveals that they had sent some fibers for testing and they came back as like dog canine wolf hair. So Sam and Dean are confused. They head back over to the bar and are chatting about the case over lunch, trying to figure out what's going on. Jamie, the bartender comes over to check in on them drop off a couple of free beers since they're they're working the case and hopefully going to save the
town. And she indeed make plans to meet up when she gets off at her shift at midnight.
Is that when Dean talked about getting he needed to get laid for his virginity?
I think so. Yeah.
I thought that was funny. go into detail. It was just he was saying like when he came back from Holly didn't have any more of his like scars from from bullet wounds or knives. I think he said, What is but was smooth as a baby or something like that. So yeah, so he was like, so technically, he's a virgin again. And he needed What did he say? He's been really hyphenated. And he was very excited about it.
Like he believes this way. The hydrogen. Yeah, he is a virgin and he needs to right some wrongs. He said, Sam, of course is like, You're full of shit. I'm going home. I'm going to the motel and I'm going to bed. During all this. In the meantime, we cut to the Museum of Natural History. And a security guard is on the phone talking to their manager, their employer being like, Were you expecting a shipment? Like, I don't know what's going on? There's this big ass thing that
was on the dock. Which How did he move that in there by himself? Oh, right. It looks huge. But then I guess we did find out later it was a prop. So maybe it wasn't heavy. As he's on the phone, the lid to this giant thing which it's the sarcophagus and it's covered and like cobwebs and all of that the lid to the sarcophagus starts to move and we see these hands coming out. Then it cuts over to the security guard. And we hear
like this third of the lid. He turns around and he sees the hands sticking out of the sarcophagus. They're wrapped in gauze. So we've got ourselves a mummy now and he like floats up out of the sarcophagus. Which How did he How did he do that? What What kind of superpowers do shapeshifters have? Spoiler it's a shapeshifter. Anyway, like levitates out of the sarcophagus, and strangles the security guard to death. Like no eyes or anything.
No,
it was great makeup teeth. Yeah, a lot of teeth. Like the skin all pulled back. No eyeballs will to dead skin was great makeup. I assume it was makeup. Maybe it was more special effects. Yeah, but it looked amazing. Again, I thought we were gonna get a blood splooge here. I thought it was going to show a blood switch. But now nothing, particularly because it was a black and white movie. I thought we were gonna have more gore. Yeah. But that's okay. There was still really good. Dean and Sam are
investigating the case. They get called in to take a look at everything. And that's when they discover the Sarcophagus is from some local prop house. The guy even created his own special effects by putting dry ice like a little tiny bucket of dry ice in the sarcophagus. I mean, you can't say there was a lack of effort.
No, no, he's getting it down to the details. Yeah.
As they're checking everything out, Dean realizes that he's late for his date with Jamie, he's like, Hey, you got this and Sam's like, yeah, I gotta go, go go. While Jamie's waiting she's given up, thinks that Dana's standing her up says your last G man starts walking away. As she turns the corner. She runs into Dracula. And he looks natural.
Yeah,
as one does. And he looks exactly like how Ed was describing the movie monster Dracula with the cape and the medallion and everything that I described earlier. He calls Jamie Mena, and is telling her that she's his reincarnated bride. And she pulls out mace and sprays it into space and then takes off running and runs right into Dean. So then the vampire Dracula comes around the corner and calls Dean Harker and is saying Harker is not going to
get in the way. Which the only reason I know this stuff is because Dracula the movie, I never read the book. Yeah. So Dean is Kiato in this whole situation. And Jamie is Wynonna Dean punches the vampire and it's like nothing. And then he punches them again, and the vampire grabs Dean and slams them up against the wall. So we've got super strength and the power of levitation with this monster. Dean tells Jamie to run
so she takes off. And as Dean is struggling with the Dracula, he grabs his ear and pulls and the ear just comes off in his hand. That's when we figure out okay, we have a shapeshifter on our hands.
I did not that did not click for me at that moment. I was like, Oh, we put it on Preston. I was like, Wait, why would you do? And then I was like, Oh,
we do. No, it's not a trickster though, so correct. I mean, I'm not gonna lie. I'm still a little disappointed. Like, I knew it wasn't gonna be but we know you. After Dean rips off Dracula's ear. He's like, fuck out and runs away. Dean tries to chase after him. But the vampire Dracula like leaps over this really tall gate. And I swear it looks like Dean tried to do the same thing. Surprise surprise. He didn't make a 12 foot drop. And Dracula escapes on his moped.
Oh my god. It was like the funny it was like so dumb. Like, slowly driving off in his little FESPA like to go and well. It looks so funny.
It was hilarious I cackle that I was laughing so hard. We cut back to the bar. Sam has met up with Dean and Dean is showing him the ear. They ripped off the guy's head. They're talking about how Yeah, like it feels like the skin of a shapeshifter. Dean also shows the medallion that he happened to rip off of Dracula's costume. And they see it's from the same prop house that the sarcophagus came from. So Salem is kind of theorizing that the shapeshifter is
reenacting horror movies. And as dean and Jamie are telling Sam more about what happened during their little confrontation. Sam is telling them about Mina and Jonathan Harker, and that their characters from the book Dracula and Sam theorizes that the shapeshifter must be fixated on Jamie for some reason. So he must have been around and starts asking Jamie has anybody new move to town, within, you know, the past few weeks or anything
like that? At first Jamie's not thinking of anybody, you know, she's like, it's Oktoberfest. There's been a shitload of new people around. I don't know who this could be like people have been in and out all frickin month. And then she says, Well, I mean, could be Edie. He moved here a while back. He comes here every night. My friend Lucy swears he has a big crush on me. So Sam decides he's going to go check out Ed. And Dean is going to stay with Jamie. During this time, Dean and Jamie are
chatting. She's obviously asking questions about monsters. I mean, she just had this whole wide world opened up to her with this whole Shapeshifter conversation and everything. Dane confesses that they're not really with the FBI. And she says that, like your life must suck. But you just drive around the country looking for these monsters to hunt down on your own dime, like no thank you. No, nothing like that fucking sucks. Like, why is this your
responsibility? Dean actually mentions that for a few years that's really where his mind was going. That's what his mindset was starting to think. But then something happened he said he had a very near death experience. And since then, he's just changed his whole mindset about it. So to LA's point, we've got a different Dean right now.
This we like this one. At least we like this one. Although I will say Sam was cute and this episode was better.
Would you have a different Sam right now as well? But yeah, I didn't hear you grumbling or getting upset with Sam this episode.
if he was okay, I'll take I'll take this. This episode Sam,
this Sam. He goes, okay. Yeah. All right. Dean says something about how you know he feels more like he's on a mission from God now and that it feels good. He's saving people and he's he's happy with it again. So of course he and Jamie start making out. As that's happening, Lucy suddenly pops in and turns on the light and says that she's got something going on. She just came to the bar to borrow a bottle. Jamie says yeah, you know, don't leave hang out have a drink. I thought was
kind of weird. Because if she had something going on and came there to borrow a bottle when you say I just told you I have something going on. I'm not going to stay right. But that's not what happens. Lucy says sure and comes over and joins them at the booth. Or Dean. Really awkward. Yeah, Dean clearly was just like, yeah, come join us for a drink like clearly didn't want her to. And I guess I kinda get why Jamie invited her to just trying to be nice and make
it not so awkward. But it would have been weird that Lucy accepted that invitation. Yeah,
you just like get out of here. Yeah. See you tomorrow. And even
if you did tell me to come have a drink. I would have been like, no. Yeah, exactly. Like I said, I'm just come here to borrow a bottle. Y'all have fun talk to you later. It was weird. She accepted the invitation. I think so too. That should have been our first hence. We know why we didn't know why at the time. We just kind of thought that's weird. We see Sam walking into an old movie theater where Ed apparently works. And even though it's the middle of the night, this is where Sam goes to
check out Edie. Turns out Ed was hanging out in there and just like a wife beater and tighty whities, so I guess he lives in the theater.
I mean, does he or is he just weird and playing an instrument with no pants on?
There was a ton of cool shadow play. In this scene though. From the moment Sam was walking in the theater, his long ash shadow coming in. When they cut to him walking down the aisle of the theater. It shows the movie screen and Edie is behind the screen going nuts on like an organ or a piano or something like the shadow of him. Yeah, it was really cool. It was like a giant shadow
screen. And again, the actor Michael Alcon or Elk Island was just going to town with his physicality, making it look as weird and as creepy as possible. The scene was phenomenal. I loved this whole scene. Sam confronts Ed, played by Michael Eklund. I've switched up names there. I'm sorry,
that's probably that's totally my fault.
No, but like, I don't want to confuse listeners are gonna be like who the fuck is Michael Michael is playing ed. So Ed is who I'm talking about. Sam confronts him, tries to rip his ears. And it's like it sounds to come off. And Ed goes, No, it isn't. No, dude. I'm Sam's like, what are you doing? And he's like, I just like the GM on the Casio. What are you doing? What the? It's never addressed why Ed is sitting there with no pants. I
was gonna say, if I was Sam, I'd be like, Why are you wearing your pants? Weird,
dude. Sam doesn't mention it. He just lets Ed go.
He's just too weirded out. I was like, I gotta go. I gotta get away for you.
In the meantime, back at the bar, Jamie, Lucy and Dean are hanging out having drinks Lucy fucking blots or lipstick again. And as she's doing this, we noticed like Jamie is slurring. We're like shit. How many drinks have they had? Didn't they invite her for one like What the hell's happening? Dean notices that Jamie seems out of it as well. And as he notices that about Jamie, his
vision starts to blur. And he realizes they got refeed and immediately reaches across the table and punches Lucy in the face.
And another lady man. I know. I mean. Yeah, this one's not really a lady. Yeah,
but still
just seems I really like this new dean but not that part of him. Right person lady feel real
violent towards women. I mean, come on. Let's let's pull it back. Guys. Let's pull it back. You don't have that many women in the show. Can Can really? Yeah, reel it in. She flies out of the booth. Dean pushes Jamie out and gets out of the booth just before Jamie passes out. And he shatters a bottle on the table. Didn't have to hit it that hard. But that's
okay. still effective. He hit it in just the right place and applied just the right amount of pressure apparently for this bottle to shatter so he had a weapon, but it was too late. He completely passes out. Lucy stands up and stomps his face even though he's completely unconscious for some reason. It was a cool shot. I will say that the shot from the ground up and her foot coming down but I was also like, unnecessary, unnecessary. He's already out.
By the time Sam returns to the bar to let Dean know it's not this Ed guy, Dean and Luke See you're gone. But Sammy smarty pants, finds the blotted lipstick napkin again and puts two and two together. That the shifter is actually Lucy.
I still want to know why they did that.
Why they bought it their lipstick so much. Yeah. I mean, we don't know what the shapeshifters true form was, right? Yeah. Because we find out the Lucy character was actually one of the brides from the first Dracula movie, an actress. So that wasn't even their true form. Right? Whatever the gender. I'm assuming they weren't used to wearing lipstick. But they were putting on a lot of lipstick to try and look like that actress from the movie. And so maybe that's why they were blotting it so much.
And didn't understand the hygiene of how disgusting it was that they were just leaving their blinded lipstick napkins all over the place. It was probably a man who didn't know better, but there's plenty of women who don't know about her either. So I don't know. I don't know. I don't know why they were doing that. They had Sam had to have some sort of hint to figure out who it was that's why they that's why that was happening. When Dean comes to he is essentially in what looks like a
dungeon It's massive. And he has been dressed in leader house and for some reason it's never explained it's never addressed. I liked it. Sam mentioned something about seeing him and leader house and is like why are you in leader housing? days just like shut up and they just move past I call
them Hansel. Yeah.
I'm like, I don't remember Jonathan Harker or Hark, Harker? Yeah. Harkat. Yeah, well, I don't remember him ever being described as being dressed in liter housing like, really until October 1. He just really likes Oktoberfest theme. Yeah. He's strapped to like this table is tilted up. The Dracula's Shapeshifter has the intention of electrocuting him. But he stops in his dramatic slow reach for the switch. Because the doorbell rings, and
it's a pizza delivery. All of the actors in this episode nailed it in my opinion, like even the pizza delivery guy. They all nailed it. Like he could not be more bothered having to deal with this guy. Who was like, still in character still being the dramatic Dracula? Which if you're the pizza delivery guy from town, what knew had been like, Oh my God, you're the guy who killed that girl the other day? How would you have known that? Because Ed was telling everyone.
Yeah. Not to mention, oh my god, you live in this weird house that has at least three levels. I'm thinking and the bottom level is a creepy dungeon basement. The middle level is just like suburban house and the upper level is Castle bedroom. Bizarre. Let's try to figure out the blueprint of this house during this whole scene. I was like what is happening? The monster goes and visits Lucy Lucy is up on the third. I'm thinking it's the third floor Castle bedroom. Okay, so Dean is
in the dungeon basement. Then we have the middle part where he taught to the pizza delivery guy and it just looks like your typical suburban living room and hallway. And then we've got the third floor Castle bedroom. And that's where Lucy is. So Dracula presents Lucy with the pizza, and that they're going to have a nice dinner. And this pizza dinner requires formal attire. So Lucy needs to change into a gown. And he's really aggressive about it whenever she tries to tell him I don't want to play
your fucking game. Yeah, I don't. You're killing people. This isn't cute. I don't want to put on your stupid dress. I just want to go home. It's real mean with her. So she ends up giving in and changing into the dress. Then we get our whole I'm a monster but be empathetic for me seen where he explains that he was abused as a child. He was called a monster. And then when you found the monster movies, he actually thought they were beautiful. They were strong.
They were intimidating. And you know that whole I'd rather be feared than loved kind of thing starts going through and she points out or you're just fucking lonely. You kill like you're lonely. So you kill people and he's like, or I kill people because I'm lonely. Luckily, Sam has found the house and is going through to let Dean out so they hear a noise and Jamie immediately start screaming for Dean. So you know Dracula, because he's so in love with Jamie and he cares about
her so much. He bitched slaps her and knocks her out. So she falls on the bed. So we've got two women getting hit and in this episode, Sam rescues Dean and they go to a door to make their escape. Sam goes to kick the door and his foot goes right through it and the door just falls over. So everything that looks like it's a dungeon looks like it's a castle, all this stuff. It's all prop stuff. It doesn't explain how fucking huge these rooms are gone. Yeah,
massive. Rooms are massive for a little suburban house and Pennsylvania. It doesn't explain that away but these are apparently all props that this monster guy has brought into the home to set everything up and get it looking the way he wants it to. We even see Sam go flying through one of the stone walls later crashes through the wall no problem and then hits a regular wall on the other side. So, but the rooms are still huge, very high ceilings. I want to see the blueprints of this
house. Sam and Dean get upstairs to where Lucy is. They have a tussle with the monster. Like I said Sam flies through the wall. The monster is beating Dean's as Dean actually drops his gun. But right when the monster is about to strike Dean again. He gets shot through the chest from behind. And three times I think, yeah, she took care of him. She knew how to handle a gun. So I was really thankful for that.
Good job, Jamie. The monster turns around, obviously, I don't know about you, but I thought it was Sam at first. I did too. Yeah, yeah, but the camera pans over and we see it is in fact Jamie that she's the one who picked up the gun. She regained consciousness, picked up the gun and shot the Dracula. And he says the infamous line from King Kong. I think it is. It was beauty that killed the beast. And he has his nice dramatic death scene talking about how Yes, you're right. This is how
the movie should end. You know he was going on a monologue earlier in the episode about how his movie was going to end with Monster winning the girl and the hero dying and all this other stuff. But he was like how you're right. This is how it should end and he dies in a chair. We cut to the next day Dean and Jamie are making out in front of Sam and Sam is just awkwardly standing there watching them for some reason rather than waiting in the car. Whatever. Weird, but Oh, well.
She thanks him for saving her life. And Sam does admit you know what? It was good to be back on the job. after all. You know this. This was nice. I'm happy we did this bro. They're talking about how life would be easier if it was more like a movie. And Sam says that he knows exactly what movie dean would want his life to be like. Dean says no you don't. Sam's like Yeah, I do. They go back and forth for a little bit. And Sam says it's Porky's to try I've never seen the second one.
I haven't either. Now I want to because I want to get the joke.
It's probably not good. I mean, I can't imagine
it's a banger. Yeah,
I mean, not good that that's what he would want to recreate. I can't talk
dangerous says lucky guests. And that's the end of the episode.
Which I was like, the whole time I was thinking I was like, I get it like if I have the means to like recreate one of my favorite movies like why not? That'd be fun.
I'd what willing participants though Oh, well. Yeah, I mean, I don't think a kill people. You know what?
I mean, my my movie wouldn't be about that. But I get it. I get it. I get his jam.
I mean, every reenact movies and stuff like that all the time. Whenever I'm just playing board around the house, you know, pretend I'm in this scenario. To make things more interesting. It was written by Ben Edlund and directed by Robert singer. So gore. Like I said there weren't any bloods flew just I would guess the goriest thing is when they were looking at the werewolf victim body. I think so. Did you adore anything about this episode?
I adored seeing Dean and later Hosen I also like I said, I liked what he was talking about, kind of like being reborn after Yeah, we're going to hell and all that. And I just Yeah, Dean. Dean for me. This one
dean was really cute. Yeah, you aren't. You do tend to drift toward Dean. I do love by see, though. You do. And you were you were very happy with him in this episode.
He was cute. He was cute again.
Sammy looks good in his suit. It was it fit nicely.
God when he was walking up those stairs at the movie theater. I was like Kati, such such a big guy. Love it.
I like to another campy episode. We haven't seen a lot of Camp since the first half of season three. We've had some entertaining episodes, but this was camp, and it was done. Well. I agree. It was done really well. I also really enjoyed the playing with light and shadow. Yes. Yeah. That I liked it to really artistic and wonderful.
Knees on scene was very good.
It was really nice. And just the black and white choice. I really enjoyed that as well. I thought it was gonna get old by the end of the episode, but it didn't. It didn't it was it was so good. I really enjoyed all that be too. All right. Lore.
Okay, well, I'm just gonna go over some like origin stories of some of the little monsters they had in the episode. Obviously Dracula. This says general vampire mythology may predate him But Vlad the Impaler was actually called Dracula which means son of the dragon and Latin. And that's where everybody will believes that Bram Stoker got his idea for Dracula book. Dracula. Dracula. Yeah, the books called Dracula. No. Yes,
I think so. Okay. I know the movie is.
He obviously was not an immortal bloodsucker, but he was a ruler of apart that is now Romania. It was pretty much famous for impaling the heads of the people he killed on steaks. Not a great guy.
I remember that introductory scene from the movie. Oh, yeah.
And then we got werewolves. The concept goes back to the Epic of Gilgamesh really like to say Gilgamesh. But there was a time when people thought that they were real. I think those deaths were mostly attributed to human serial killers. But people seem to liked like the idea of having like a mythical fall guy, instead of believing that there was just a crazy person ripping people apart.
That's not a lot of our lore, where it's like, people just use it as an excuse for this whole like thing they did themselves. No,
no, I don't want to I don't want to think that that is real. So let's just think think about it this way.
And that will feel better. A person couldn't have possibly done this. Yeah, so it must be this man, Wolf, crazy monster thing that exists and you couldn't possibly fight it off, and it'll come and attack you in your sleep. Yeah, I'd rather believe that than that. It was just a person.
That's scarier. I like in this article says some of them even confessed to being werewolves, apparently just for funsies. Oh. I like this. Okay. And then we have mummies. Nope. Yes, we have mummies. mummies were real. We know. I hope everybody knows that. I mean, they didn't come alive, obviously. But they didn't levitate.
Yeah, and walk around and strangle people. Right, okay.
That we know. They were all the rage in the 19th and 20th centuries. And the opening of King Tut's tomb in 1922 was a big story. And especially after some of the people involved in the expedition started dying. So then, of course, that that brought up the rumors of a curse. It turns out they didn't actually die instantly, statistically significant numbers, but it was enough for Universal Studios to turn into a monster movie. And now to
Holbein interesting. Yeah. I'll talk about a couple of others just because they're fun, though. So Frankenstein's monster, Mary Shelley's Modern Prometheus, was inspired by science shows that were popular at the time that she was known to attend. And performers used electricity to move limbs of animal carcasses. Because 19th century life was boring and gruesome. Oh my god. And then this one, this is the one I didn't know. Wait a minute, hang
on. I need I need us to come back to that. So they would take like dead animals and put them on on stage. And then like, shock them so the bodies would move. And people would be like, ooh, and like this is entertaining for us. And then Mary Shelley went I'm gonna do it with a man. Yep. Okay.
I did not know that. I didn't either. So Mr. Hyde. Okay, cool. In high school. Hi, Robert Louis Stevenson story, a man leading a chemical double life was inspired by the crimes of a wealthy craftsman who burglarized his neighbor's homes to support his various habits, and a doctor who murdered his wife. There were no poor potions involved, but it was apparently a groundbreaking notion that a guy could be both rich and bad.
Oh my god,
they were real fucking naive back then. Right? Yeah, so those are little origin stories of their their little monsters in the show today.
Here well, quote, close it out. Actually closed out the episode itself. Ish. A little bit. Kind of. Are you ready? Sorry. This quote is from Dean. He says hero gets the girl monster gets the gank All in all, happy ending. With a happy ending no less. Oh. Thank you for listening to denim wrapped nightmares.
