The Hills Have Eyes

Hey, Gray's thanks so much for joining us this week for another episode of Gray Girls Podcast. As always, it's me your host, hot Thorn, and your other host and Marrillas. What's up, guys. Sorry, we haven't released episodes since right before Thanksgiving. We had a lot of family in town, and like four Thanksgivings. I even cooked my own and Marrella's cooked

our own. We had like five Thanksgiving. I cooked two, and it was our first new was our first one without our grandma, so we were just really like, yeah, yeah, I used to cook my grandma a full Thanksgiving feast every Thanksgiving obviously and deliver it to our house that night. And it was weird not making enough food for like fourteen only how did you make enough food for like five? So it was very weird. Yeah, and then I've been going to the dentist a lot because I got a fucked

up mouth. But anyway, we're here now. We watched The Hills Have Eyes Unrited. It's a really good movie. Please make sure you watch it before you listen to this episode, because it's that good. Dude. It literally sounds like someone was coughing in my backyard. I don't hear anything now, so it's fine. It's something possessed. When we talk on recording, start even talk about it. It's okay. Here we go. The Hills Have Eyes is a horror movie where a family goes on a road trip and

stops at a gas station to ask for directions. The attendant tells them about a short cut and quotes through the hills. Unbeknownst to them, this short cut is actually a trap. After their truck and URVR erect from lizard spikes, they are stranded in the desert and hunted by the locals. So if you've watched the movie, you understand that when we say lizards spikes, that's

the deformed dude name lizard spikes. So that solvably mean. They all have names that are kind of like related to what they are, not all of them. But there's like big Mom, It's like Plutou used to be a planet, not anymore. Oh my god. There's big Brain, the guy who looks like he has a big brain. There's Goggle, who looks through the goggles and looks. They're very simple. They are. They don't know many words. Their names are pretty simple. Ruby where is red? She

has a red jacket that she stole. Yeah, So it's like, is that even her daget? I don't know. We're gonna pick up right from there. So they go to the gas station. The dude's like, oh, yeah, go over here. But then when they leave, he liked radios the mind people at KA what we called the locals, and he's like, oh, we got like a bunch of people for you to eat, and they're like, yeah, dinner. He's like, I don't want to do this anymore, but you know, here's here's another group. That's the

last one that I'm cutting you guys off. He gets murdered later because of this. This is exactly verbatim how it happens. Guys. So that's driving through and they're like, wow, that was so nice of that dude to give us a shortcut. Just letting you know there's no such thing as a shortcut. A road trip takes a long time, especially through the desert. Guys, just go on the road. Just go on the road. But it tells you don't listen to anyone. They're full of shit and they're probably

gonna try to get you eaten by cannibalized, deformed mutant people. So they're driving through these hills, and all of a sudden, this guy named Lizard. He carries his like big as spikes on his back, which I don't even know where he got those, but he throws him in the street and they activate, and then the car runs over the spikes that gets fucked up. The RV was right behind the truck also gets fucked up. They all almost got a car accident and die. They stop. Big Bob comes out,

he's the dad. He's like, well, the axles fucked. I don't know if that's real, but that's what I think of in and he's like, I gotta walk to that gas station a few miles back to freaking see for help. And the other dude whose name is Doug. Doug, he's like, you know what, I'm gonna use my cell phone climb to the top of this mountain and I want to get us for sum reception and get us out of here. He's literally the whitest guy. He's like an

accountant. He got glasses and you're saying, I'm gonna climb to the top of this wrench with my handy dandy glances and try to use my cell phone. That's a lot more accurate. Yes, So then there's the mom named Ethel, but she's only called mom. There is the sister named Lynn and she has just had a baby, and the baby's name is Baby because that's the baby. And then there's Brenda the teenage sister, and Bobby the little brother. Right, that's everybody. The baby is just named baby. Her

name's Claire, his baby. And then they had two German shepherds. One's name Beauty and one's name Beast. Okay, when I rewatched this movie, I could have sworn Beast died. They changed it, maybe in the unrated version, because this whole time Beast died and he had Beauty with him the whole time, and I was like, she's a good that's a good girl, such a good little baby. And then now when I watched it again, it's like, Beauty died. I'm like, what, Yeah, no,

I think they changed it. Also, spoiler alert, the dog does die. I'm sorry, it's horrible. She actually gets eaten. Okay, but we're not there. Only one dog dies, guys. The other dog, badass motherfucker is a good boy. So the two grown men of the group leave and they leave the teenage boy in charge, and they give him a gun. They're like, defend the family, but they don't think that

he even really has to defend the family. So the sixteen year old daughter, I don't really know if she's sixteen, she just seems that way. She's like tanning with her just her braw on, which I'm like, oh my god. I know, you guys are in the middle of nowhere, but you never know who's watching, and someone is watching. And then like the other mom, and then the mom she's like breastfeeding her baby, and

then the main mom she's just like me and a mom. It takes them all day for Big Bob to get to the gas station and it looks like no one's there. He goes inside and he sees like news clippings and shit, and he's like, maybe they set me up. At the same time, Doug went to the top with a little ridge she was trying to get to and sees this humongous crater in the ground and it's full of cars, like parked cars, and he goes up to it and he sees like brand

new stuff. He takes back, like a fishing rod and a Teddy bear and like some sunblock, and he just takes all this stuff and this that part, I'm like, wouldn't you think it was hell of suspicious? All these cars, brand new stuff inside of it all together. He's just like, oh, they must have all just been abandoned. Mi, man, this is fine. I'm just gonna get this stuff in my family whose car is also broken down right and over here. And he's supposed to be like

this hell of smart guy, like you don't think anything's weird. The biggest mistake they made was splitting up. Just everyone walk just everyone go to the gas station, go together. Remember the girls were like, I'm tired down, I'm hungry, the baby's fussy. So it's the girl's fault, as Go Go would say in Big Hero six woman Up. Okay, So as Big Bob's at the gas station, he starts hearing like whispering that sounds like it's right behind him. No, someone's crying. Oh it was crying.

It wasn't like I thought it was. Like. So this is my favorite part, this like whole big thing I'm gonna explain. Big Bob gets to the gas station. He goes inside and he sees like a bunch of people's bags like open and like you could tell there like ladies bags and you can see it, like obviously something fucked up is going on. And he goes outside. He's like, hey, where are you? I need to talk

to you. He's looking for the gas attendant guy. His name is Jeb apparently, yeah, he murderer, and he hears him crying in the outhouse. And while he walks he's trying to find it where he's crying, he finds like a pile of like ears, remember that, like we're pile of nasty. He found it was just parts, yeah, and he's like bo. But then he finds Jeb. He's crying. He's like, I didn't want to do it. I'm sorry. I didn't want to do it. They're they're my family. I'm sorry. I can't do it anymore. I

can't do this anymore. And Bob's like, hey, just just give me your shot gun. Let's talk about this. What are you talking about. He's like, I'm so sorry, I can't. And Jeb shoots himself in the head and he kills himself and it's Gloria's fuck yeah, oh, blood guts everywhere. Look. But then right as that happens, you hear someone going daddy, daddy, where are you What happened to Daddy? It's like gravelly and spooky sounding, and Bob's freaked the fuck out. He's like,

fuck this. He gets into a car that was over there and he's looking for the keys and he still here, just here, Daddy, Where are you? Daddy? What happened to Danny? And so right as he I don't like this part because it's like a jump scare. Oh, I knew that was going to happen. I know when he gets in the car that too. He puts the mirror down and you see the guy in the back of him and just goes Daddy and he cuts the black because you were like, oh no, they got big Bob. And I'm like, bro,

you could have done that better. That's that's cheap. You always gonna check your fucking back seat before you get in. Also, you guys like, I don't care if you're scared of shit, you need to check just check that shit. How did he get into the car? Was he just waiting in the car, just saying from the inside of the car, Daddy, knowing he'd get into the car. That's like my whole problem with this part

too, because how didn't he hear the door open or clothes. So it cuts to black and it goes back to Doug showing up at the r V and he's like, oh, I got I found all this stuff from the abandoned cars over there. It's so weird. It's just a crater and all these cars and these brand new things here. I got the baby a toy. I got this fishing rod. And they're like, why the fuck do

you need a fishing rod in the middle of the desert. You're an idiot, even though it ends up being like one of the most important things that they got. But okay, which you'll get too, don't worry. He's like, I'm hungry. Has Big Bob shown up yet? They're like, no, I'm just hungry. Let's eat. We'll wait for Big Bob. But he could take care of himself. He was a retired cop. He'll be fine. But Bobby's freaking out because Bobby didn't tell anyone that he had

found Beauty ripped open and like getting eaten. Yeah, he didn't tell anybody, but he's freaking out, and everyone's just like, oh, no, it'll be fine. I know it's nighttime. Let's just go to bed. Big Bob probably got help. He's come in. We'll just go to sleep. It's fine, and Bobby's like, no, let's let's just all sleep in arev together. You guys don't have to sleep in the car. We'll just sleep in here, I know. And they're like, we're trying to

fuck, dude, we're trying to have sex. Go away, you're weird. And he's like, no, you know, I'll sleep on the floor. And they have the bed and the couch and this, and they're like, dude, we're just gonna sleep in the car. Chill, he's like. And the girls are falling asleep. Bobby's freaking out and he talks to Doug. He's like then he tells him about beauty. He's like, I found beauty. Something's going on. Someone's in these hills. Something's happening.

And Doug goes, you're crazy. Everything is gonna be fine. But ready as he says that the like mutant people, we'll just call them mutants. I know that's insensitive, but that's what they are. In the movie. We even try to look up like the PC name and the other other one was abnormalities anomalies. It sounds worse, so I'm sorry. We're gonna call the mutants again. We apologize. We don't feel this way about anyone.

Sorry to my X Men fans. I mean, I don't love my XS man, but you know, because we love the X Men, especially number three. It's my favorite one. So they all went to bed. For the most part, I was saying, Bobby was trying to keep them all inside the RV, trying to because he was freaked out. Yeah, he was even trying to stay awake. He's like slapping himself. He's just playing with the flashlight, trying to stay awake, wanting to protect his family.

That's his sister, his niece and his mom. Like he's worried, and so he goes out and Doug is like, yeah, big Bob's not back by midnight. We'll go looking for my promise. And it's like eleven fifty eight and Bobby's like but I was like, he's not back yet. We gotta go. We gotta go look for him. I'm freaked out. And he's like, dude, he'll be fine and don't worry. Beauty's gonna come back. And he's like, no, I found Beauty's body. She was

dead. Like something's going on here. Man, and Doug's like, you're crazy. But right as he says that, they there's like a spotlight on the tree. It was really weird how it happened. It like gets lit up and you see Bob and he's screaming, and they're like, shit, what's happening. So all the adults run over there to go see what's going on. The mom Bobby, Doug, I want to say, and he goes with them too. Right, Brenda and the baby are the only one

left. Everyone runs to Bob. Yes. During while they all run, you see Lizard and Pluto inside kind of molesting Brenda. You see it. It's really creepy. It's even creepier because Lizard goes for the food in the fridge and Pluto goes for Brenda. You know what I mean, Like he wanted to drink the bird's blood and the milk and a bunch of other ship. You can tell. Pluto's like all fucked up. He doesn't have the

mind of an adult, you can tell. Lizard does, and he's evil, but he has seen adult things, so he tries to imitate it. Yeah, he's like touching on Brenda's leg and Lizard goes You have to be a man. To do that. I'm gonna show you how to be a man. This is how you do it. Brenda screaming. But while everyone is out occupied trying to take care of Bob because he's being burned, alive,

crucified on a cactus. Yeah, they lit him on fire. And one of the saddest parts is Doug comes running back and he goes Brenda watch the baby, and he grabs the fire extinguisher. Well, Brenda's getting raped in the corner, and Lizard is like laughing, and you can see the fear. The actress did a great job. I just want to say, you can feel her fear, her like pain, and she's screaming and he's laughing. He loves it. And they're still trying to extinguish Big Bob who's

on fire, and they hear crying. The baby's mom. He's crying and she's like, shit, my baby. She goes in and she sees Claire getting raped. She sees the baby and she's like, fuck, would I do? What do I do? What do I do? And Brenda's just crying in the corner. They're done with her, and fucking I hate this whole part is like thinking about it just gives me like this feeling in my stomach of like ugh. But he's like, what the fuck's going on?

And Lizard basically tries to start raping Lynn and like she's trying to fight him off, but he gets his gun and he aims it at her baby. So what is she gonna do? Like he's basically like, I'm gonna shoot your baby in the head if you don't let me touch you. And shit, you just see the slik on her face of like she has to do this because her baby's in trouble and it's so sad, and she's sitting there and he's touching her boobs. He's like trying to undress her and it's fucked

up. The baby's just sitting there. She doesn't know what's happening, and so she finds a screwdriver I think it was, And when Lizard looks up for a second, because the mom comes in with a rock because she's distressed. A lot of shit happens right here, guys, But the mom comes in because she's like distressed. She just saw her husband get fucking burned alive. He was screaming. So the boys are trying to get him down. The mom gets this big rock and is just like, I need to protect

my kids. So she goes in there and she just has a rock. She lifts it above her head. Lizard sees it well, Brenda's screaming, mom no, and shoots the mom in the stomach, blows her up against the wall. She's done, and when he looks up to do that, Lynn gets the screwdriver and shoves it in his foot. He screamed. She

looks at him, and he just shoots her right in the head. And then finally, after all the fire's done and they get down Bob's body, then the boys start hearing the screaming and they run back, but it's far. It's like a lot farther than you'd think the tree was from the thing. Yeah, it looks close, but then when they are running tell Afar, especially running in like pitch darkness in the desert, dude so hard.

And so they run. But by the time they get there, they see Brenda crying in the corner, and Pluto and Lizard are like, we'll be back for you, don't worry, and they grab the baby and they run and then she's screaming. She's screaming the mom is shot in the corner lens on the floor. Everyone's like, what the fuck's happening. A little Bobby is freaked out. He starts shooting in the darkness, wasting all his bullets, wasting all the bullets, and they're laughing while they're running away. They're

like zig zagging. They've done this thousands of times. They know what's happening. And Bob's just pissed off. And Doug has to be like the rational one when he sees his daughter gone, his wife on the floor, his mother in law dead. He just watched his father in law get burned alive, So it's understandable that Bobby's freaking out. I love how he gives the mother in law like false hope before she dies. Yeah. Yeah. It's

like right afterwards and they're trying to clean everything up. He is trying to like hold his wife's head, and she wakes up for a second, remember, with her head blown open, and she just wants to know where her baby is, and like he can't do anything, and she dies in his arms, and Brenda's freaking out. The mom is just she's cold. She's like, I'm cold. She wants more blankets. She's like his big bob coming home. He's like, yeah, he's fine, and she's like,

is Lenny and the baby okay. He's like, yep, they're right here. They're they're just sleeping fine, and he just lets her like die, thinking everything's okay, which I think was really nice. I think it was sad, but it was really nice. You know. One thing that's cool though, there's still one of the hills have eyes people watching them. It was Goggle who uses like the goggles whatever, and he actually gets killed by Beast, so I thought that was cool. Oh. I was so happy

for that. And then after Goggle is killed by Beast, Beast brings back Goggle's hand, which has the walkie talkie in it, yeah, which all the mutant people used to talk to each other's wakie talkie. So the next morning, like they finally go to sleep, Doug and Beast, they go to rescue the baby, whose name is baby to me, I guess her name is Catherine. Oh crap, I called her Claire. I called her

Claire like six times. It's fine. Oh, well, something white, okay, But he sets out and Bobby and Brenda are left at the RV and she's scared shitless. Say that five times fast, Bobby and Brenda at the r zero times. I'm trying to make it funny. It was really upseting, and she's so afraid that they're going to come back and like rape her again or kill her or take them or she doesn't know, but she's petrified. And Bobby's like, get your shit together, and he knows he

has to be the big brother. And they get this amazing plan to like wire all around them with the fishing wire that Doug brought home, and they rig it to a little baby rattle, so anything that comes in contact with the fishing wire will rattle the rattle. Rattle the rattle. We'll touch the rattle. Oh my god, that's a stupid word. We'll move the rattle, making it make noise, and then they'll be alerted that someone is there.

God. So then Doug continues his journey through like the mines, and he sees an abandoned nukealer testing village just like Nuketown and Call of Duty Black Ops, which is my favorite game. I kill on some Nuketown. Anyways, he gets into the house where he finds his baby, and this is my favorite part of the movie because he leaves Beast in an abandoned car because he needs to be quiet, and that little puppy was doing so good. He just sat down. He was quiet when he said be quiet. He

was quiet, even like a nasty mutant thing. Was that one's name Sis? Sis. He's like a big, big one. He has a neck brace. He looks like he'd be in like Silent Hill and stuff. Yeah, he looks gross. He's walking around with like a big ass axe and he tells the dog to be quiet. It stays quiet. He's like to stay here, So they wait for Sis to leave and he goes into the house where he finds the baby, but she is being taken care of by big Mama. She actually looks normal, she just doesn't have hair, and

he's like about to escape with the baby, picks her up. She's quiet. He's walking out and she's somehow behind him and knocks him unconscious. He wakes up in a freezer like from the gas station where like the ice creams are usually in but it's not on, dude, and there were so many bodies in there. He wakes up and he's in a disgusting not turned on freezer full of body parts, legs, arms, torsos. He's next to him, lay out. There's like a face in there, like it's freaking

disgusting. He's trying to pound his way out, boom boom, boom boom, and his baseball bat is on top. Why would it leave the fucking weapons so close to the victim? I don't know, but whatever, and he ends up like kicking his way out and he gets his bat and he starts looking. He's like, okay, I'm gonna kill someone. That's when he finds big brain. Big brain is exactly what he sounds like. He has a really big brain, like it is about two feet long, and

he can't really move. He's in a wheelchair, but it's like an old wheelchair that's like wooden. He's like the brains of the operation pun intended. And he's like, where's my baby And he's like, I don't know, she's not here, And Amorella's actually does a perfect impersonation of him, so I'll let her say what he says. He starts telling him the story of what happened, and he's like, you people left us in the man.

Yeah. Basically that's why they kill humans because they believe they left them in the mind Yeah, they left them in the minds while the en did nuclear testing, so it sucked them all up. They were genetically mutated and the womb and stuff due to all the radiation and nuclear shit in the air from all the testing, and no one ever helped them. So they hate humans, they hate everybody. He starts laughing. He's like, it's breakfast time.

And that's my real favorite part because right when he says that freaking Pluto bust through the fricking door. He's as big as the planet Pluto, by the way, that's probably why his name is Pluto. He's fucking massive. They just start fighting. It's intense. He has like an axe. He smashes the shit out a dug He cuts off two of his fingers at one point. And my real favorite part, Doug, he ends up getting away.

Yeah, and he has his bat and he's ready. He moves the bathtub in front of the bathroom door and he's pointing his bat right at the camera, and you were like, oh, shit's about to get real. But then they start zooming out and you're like, oh my god, what's gonna happen. Pluto comes busting through the side of the wall and they start fighting, and he cuts the bat in half with the axe, and Doug uses half of it to get him in the gut. It doesn't even FaZe

him. He takes it right out and he's like then he like drops it, and Doug starts crying. He's on his knees. He's like, please, don't kill me, please, And they're laughing. And he gets the axe right up to his head and he measures it out. He pulls it back and he's sizing up the axe and he looks on the ground with his last like his eye is all bloody too. And he picks up a little scrooge like a regular run of the mill, and he holds it up to

Pluto and Big Brain and Pluto laughing, dude, it's shaking. Those arms are sore. He stabs it right into a Pluto's foot. It drops his axe. Doug gets up. He gets the American flag out of Big Bob's head, his father in law's dead burnt corpse. Takes the flag out and shoves it into Pluto, killing him. It was intense. And then Beast

escapes from the car and Beast kills Big Brain. And it was freaking crazy, and then him and Beast were turned back outside to where Sis likes to do his little laps, and he fucking gets him with his own axe in the head. Before Beast kills Big Brain, he gets on the walkie talkie and says kill the baby to Lizard. Oh yeah, And then Lizard now being ordered to kill the baby, it's so excited to kill the baby. Yeah. He's like, yeah, I'm eat this baby, cook it up.

And he gets a meat cleaver and he's so ready. And when he goes to where they had Katherine held Ruby that only like good mutant, I guess, replaces it with a piglet, so I'm like, obviously they have food. Though, why are they killing all these people if they have like pigs they could eat, I don't know. And then Doug starts chasing Ruby through the hills for his baby. Meanwhile, back at the RV, Brenda and Bobby hear something moving the rattle and they go and it's just a tumbleweed.

Brenda starts freaking out because she knew they said I'll come back for you, and so if she hears any kind of movement they get, she like starts to throw up. She gets like so shaky and so scared. Understandably when they were to remove the tumbleweed and they go find it out, they're like, okay, it's just a tumbleweed. And they start to go back to the trailer. They see the door to the car open and their mom is missing. Their mother's body is missing. They start freaking out. Bobby

is done. He's like, hell no, his little white gangsterself. He gets out there, dude. He pulls out his little clock. He starts walking and he finds Papa Jupiter eating his mother, like no, no, no, no, like a Thanksgiving feast. He's like shooting everything but him, and he is the worst shot. He misses so many times. Papa Jupiter starts laughing and he runs and chasing him. Oh. He runs after Bobby and he's like, Brenda, get the truck ready, and she's like,

oh shit, like it's happening. They do this thing where they use the propane and they turn it on full blast. Then they put a strip of matches duct tape to the sliding glass door on the trailer. They decide to lure him into the trailer, lock him in there, and explode it. But what they didn't account for was that Papa Jupiter knew the window was there because you know, they had done ricon and he like bust through when

he starts grabbing at Brenda. Brenda's losing her cool and Bobby's like, fuck this, dude, our plan's gonna work no matter what, and he like uses a bungee cord to tie his arms to the trailer. So then Bobby and Brenda escape the trailer from another window, but he doesn't know because he was trying to get his arm out. And when he goes on the little screen door, the little strip of matches they had set up ignite and make

this huge Monga's explosion. So after they blow everything up, it cuts back to Doug trying to find his family, trying to find little baby Catherine. I told you her name is Baby. So he kind of follows Ruby because Ruby has her, and he's like, please, can I have my baby back? Please? And She's about to hand it to him because Ruby's a good girl, like she doesn't want to do any of this shit. It's really sad. Ruby's about to hand him his baby back, but Lizard comes

and like tackles him. He starts attacking him. He starts he tries to use his fucking spike strips to attack him with He does get him like once in the face, and that would have killed him if it like hit his entire body. Guy's been shot, Guy's been stabbed, he had his hand broken, fingers. This poor guy, he just wants to protect his baby. Lizard is stronger than Doug. Obviously, he's been living in the desert

forever. He knows what he's doing. So Lizard gets the gun and he's about to shoot Doug, and he's like, fuck you, I'm gonna kill your baby and kill your family. You're done. I'm gonna eat you guys, blah blah blah, and Ruby's like no, So Ruby, she puts the baby down and she tackles Lizard and they both fall off the cliff and they die together. So she basically killed like her brother or whatever he was to her, but just to protect the baby. She had a soul.

I'm gonna say she didn't want to do anything bad. He's really sad her and the two other kids. Obviously, the kids aren't born bad. They's raised by fucking Papa Jupiter to be evil. Basically, Yeah, I wonder how Ruby got good. Maybe she like found a book or maybe because they had to I saw her watching that jury Springer or whatever exactly. Maybe that's whether so bad though maybe it was more. Maybe it was more. Doug gets his baby and he's like it's finally over, and he has to walk

all the way the fuck back to the site. He finds his dog. He does find the dog. Baby Beast is still alive. Beast is a good boy. So he has Beast and he's holding him. He's like, good boy, it's such a good boy. And he's like yeah, yem, yeah, yeah, he's so excited, little baby dog he is. He's great actor, great actor. And he's like, okay, we're done. So they're walking back and it cuts back to Bobby and Brenda and they see everything still on fire. It was a nice big smoke fire for people

to see though. I guess that was the other point. Yeah, And they hear laughing and like the fund was that And they walk over and they see Papa Ju but are laughing. Yeah, he's like barely even phased by the attack. A giant explodes and she landed on something so it's through his chest, so he's dying. The fire didn't do shit to him, and he's like, you think this is over, it's just showing he's so evil even in death. He would rather laugh at their pain than freaking admit.

Yeah, And so he's like, this isn't over. You guys are all gonna die. Me, me, me, and Burnah's like I'm done. I'm tired of this, and she goes ham on his head and kills him with the pickaxe. It was very minecraft, so technically everyone in the family has killed somebody, which is good, that's true. They're just holding each other and they're like, it's over. Well, we'll figure out how to I mean, it's not really over. You know. They're kind of in

the middle of the desert now, but it's fine. We're still gonna figure out how to get home car. And then while they're holding each other, they see Doug and Beast and little baby walking up and they're just like, oh my god, everything's okay. We're gonna get through this. It'll be fine. And then just as they're getting like their happy family moment together, it's zoom out into showing someone else looking at them through binoculars. So I'm

like, wait, is there like another goggle? Do they have two names. I thought the ending that little part was like so fucking stupid. It reminded me of the ending of The Crazies when they zoom out and they're still following them. Yeah, so if they just cut that out, it would have been much better. I think, why wouldn't that mutant go and kill them right now? You know? Why would he just be watching? That's

hit their dad? Papa Jupiter is the dad. The end, end end and ending that little slippet we just said, we just said the binoculars trash the whole movie fucking amazing. What do you rate it out of five? Probably a four, maybe like a three point eight, three point eight. I do love the movie a lot, but there's a lot of parts where I'm like, that's stupid. That part doesn't make sense? Why did this? I'm nitpicky. Especially it is an older movie. I don't know,

that's why you're a good movie reviewer. It's an older movie. So I give it a lot of slack. It's like three point eight, what is it, oh, five oh six, something like that. Two six. I think if it was a newer movie trying to pull some of that shit, I would rate it so much little work because it's fucking stupid, but probably a three point eight. Yeah, but I know six. It was a good ass movie. It was really good, though. I do recommend it. Watch it for sure. Everyone should see it at least once.

It'll freak you out about the desert. I still think about it until we go on Rode Chips and shit, I'm like, we're gonna die. We're gonna die. I live in the desert, I know. I hate it. Gogges right here, I'm gonna I'm gonna die. It's fine. What do you think of the movie. I'm gonna rate it a four. I think that all the mutants were done really well. I actually never looked up if they actually looked like that or if they're just make up, but I

couldn't tell either way. They look amazing. Even the little kids. Oh my god, there's two little kid mutants and when Ducks searching the house, they're like, hey, mister, want to play with us? And they look like me right now because I just got a bunch of injections on the side of my face and I can't move it at the dentist right the rupture kind of cute, and they're just nice, I know, and they just want to play toys. But then he looked at the toys and the toys

are all fucked up. They look like toys Story one and the fat fucking Bad Kid's Room. Other than the end of ending, everything was really good. They should have just stayed together. Maybe they would have been alive. I don't know, we're assholes, say. Our promo for this week is sorry, just channeling my inner big brain here commutants, Oh my god,

Alright, story time, We're now the story slash murder portion of our podcast, where emerrillists will find an amazing scary ass story to link to the film, and I'll find a murder that links in a creative way, hopefully never a creative this week. My story this week was posted seven years ago on Reddit no sleep, because that's where I spend a lot of my time. Guys. It was posted by someone named if You Go into the Woods. That's an interesting name, would you if you go into the woods?

Take Tom's to be or what it mean? I'm married to a Tom So and it is called the Family who Lived in the Woods. There was a family who lived in the woods near my house. At first it was a very poor young couple with nowhere else to go, but they soon had children, and those children bread until there was about twenty in total. They lived in a cave cut into a rock face and fed on roots and woodland creatures. Every so often they'd lay in wait just off the path and ambush

passers by. They robbed the men, raped the women, and in winter they would eat the corpses. You can imagine what my new girlfriend thought when I suggested we take a walk through those woods at night. Don't worry it it was hundreds of years ago. I said, Oh, no, distrust me, It'll be fun. Truth be told, I'd warn't anyone away from walking through those woods. But I had no choice. We just started going

out, and she had a reputation for going out with bad boys. If I wanted to live up to her exes, I'd have to be daring. It was getting late, and the only sounds came from our own footsteps. Moonlight sneaked through the twisted trees, and our feet squelched in the mud. Tell me about your family, I said. She wouldn't talk much about them, and I could tell it was a subject she didn't like. I asked questions, trying to seem interested, but soon conversation dried up. In fact,

I already knew she had problems with her family. Her brother died while serving in the army, and her father had left when she was a girl. She had trust issues. Man, Maybe you could say I was exploiting them. We were alone in the woods and she only had me to help her. She had let go of my hand awhile back, but then she grabbed it again when something crashed through the trees. It's just a rabbit, I said. I carried it off well, but I was nervous. I

didn't actually see what ran past us, but a rabbit seemed reasonable. It was a good enough reason to draw her closer to me anyway. That family didn't really live here, did they. It's just a legend, she said, No, they really existed. There were twenty of them, and they were all inbred. Did they really kill people? Oh? Yes, and eat them so they say. She gripped my hand even tighter. What happened to them? They were cop by the police after they murdered an entire family.

They were hung in the town's center. I want to leave, she said. We were in the middle of the woods, where no light got through and wind moaned through the trees. We were far away from her house, so deep in the woods she'd never find her way out. I didn't tell her, but we were close to the cave where the family lived. She wasn't talking to me now, and she walked faster, forcing me along with her. I tried to draw her back, but she ignored me.

Ahead of us, I could see the cave. I hoped she wouldn't see it. Where did you go to school? I said, I don't want to talk, Just get me out of here. She tugged on my hand hard enough to hurt it. We walked even faster. There was rustling in the bushes ahead, and we moved farther to the right to walk in an arc away from whatever was there. As we got closer, the rustling grew louder and I could make out a shadow. A man stepped out and looked

straight at my girlfriend. He had mud covering his face except where wrinkles cracked through. His beard was overgrown. He walked toward us, and another man stepped out of the bush behind him, and then another. Soon five of them were in front of us, joined by an old hag at the back. They looked evil. They stood in the middle of the path, just waiting. My girlfriend lost control of herself, whimpering into my sleeve. We stopped and I turned to her. Well, I'd like you to meet my

family, I said, And that's the story. Are they going to kill her? They're gonna eat her? You think, yeah, well why were Okay? I picked the story because it reminds me of how what's his name jeb like has to trick people into going into the in this case the forest, but in his case the desert in order to like feed his family. So you're someone who's like trusting and unsuspecting, and you get these people who trust you, and you just kind of have to do it to feed them.

So when I read this, I was like, that's like a more modern take of what's happening, you know, because especially nowadays with like urban exploration and people going out at night, people exploring the woods all the time. I live in Oregon. There's so many fucking woods around here to explore. You how many times people have invited me on dates to go to the woods. I'm not gonna get murdered, are you kidding me? So that's my story. It's also warning be careful if people ask you to go to

the woods, especially at night, don't do it. So that was my story, very straightforward. You could totally see why I picked it when a little easy love it? What was your murder this week? The murderer I'll be discussing this week is David Jay Rens. David Jay Wrens was born with a congenital birth defect. Huh. He was born without the lower half of

his left jaw like completely and part of the left cheekbone. So like, if you look up a picture of him, you gotta see this is a hereditary condition that Rens in his family, his father, brother, and sister all have the facial deformality, but it was the most prominent in David J. Ren's Even after multiple jaw lengthening surgeries, it didn't help much. And as a baby he had to have a tracheotomy, which is a hole in your neck so he could eat, And as a kid he still had to

have it because sometimes eating was excruciating for him. He would have to like suck in his food so and when he spoke he'd have to cover the hole at school just to be heard. And due to this, he was a loner, which you know you can imagine. Okay, I feel bad for him, But just because people hurt you and billy you doesn't mean you should go and become a murderer, you know what I mean? Like, no matter what the fuck happens in your life, that does not give you the

right to kill another person. And that's why I'm only bringing up how he looks, because that's why I linked him to this case. Other than that he's shit. Sorry not sorry anyways. Rends was arrested in January twenty thirteen for possession of child pornography. They found over eleven thousand images and eleven hundred videos. Christ He was sentenced to thirty years into federal prison, and then was put under federal monitoring. Several of the child pornography videos depicted acts of

rape and murder, which is similar to crimes he would soon commit. The authorities, for some fucking reason, allowed Rends to be released to house arrest with an ankle monitor for weeks. He played with the ankle monitor, seeing how long he could remove it before learning the authorities. On March fourteenth, twenty thirteen, Rens removed his electric monitoring device, left it at home, and drove to a mall in New York. Once at the mall, he

parked his car and walked around in the parking lot a bit. That's where he found his victims. A librarian named Laurie Anne Bresnahan and her ten year old daughter were getting into their vehicle. Rens forced his way into the car using an air pistol. He told them it was a real gun, pointing it at the mother, Laurie, He forced her to drive them to a remote area of the mall's parking garage. Once alone, he bound both of his victims. He then used the knife to cut a hole in Laurie's ten

year old daughter's clothes, and he raped the young girl. Rens was trying to use cable ties to bind Laurie's head and neck to the headrest in her car. Then she began to fight back, and she fought back hard. She shouted to her ten year old daughter, run, and she did. She bolted out of the vehicle. As Laurie watched her daughter run off to safety, Rens got angry and started to attack her. He began furiously stabbing

Lorie in the head and chest, and then strangled her to death. Thankfully, by this time, though, her ten year old daughter was rescued by someone just driving by. Was rescued by someone driving by, and they called the police. Rens was arrested shortly after like right then. Once in custody, authorities kept his face and deformities hidden from the public. Weeks after the attack, a report by a federal judge found that the officers failed to do

monthly checks on rents. They were also supposed to inspect the bracelet. At these monthly checks. The probation officers, who were supposed to be keeping an eye on him ignored forty six alerts that his ankle monitor had been tampered with. It took Rens less than one minute of his bracelet going off to reassemble it and set it down. The bracelet was held together with a piece of duct tape and a screw. When the authorities found it at his house.

The Federal probation officers Syracuse who were monitoring him, it just says, we're either fired or demoted. That's it. I bet they were already even fired. Oh yeah, that's it for them. They better have been fired, because that's up. David J. Wrens pled guilty to the murder of Lorie Bresnahan and to the rape charges of her ten year old daughter on May sixteenth of twenty sixteen. He was sentenced to life in prison without parole for the

first degree murder and the predatory assault against a child. The victims family pleaded with officials not to hold a death penalty trial to spare the ten year old daughter any additional trauma, So that's why he didn't get the death penalty. My sources for this case were Murderpedia dot org, Syracuse dot com, and Reddit. I chose this case because David J. Wrens looks like one of the people from the movie of the Hills of Eyes. If you would just

look it up, and he raped the daughter. He also looks like our uncle who has also a childhoodists. Yep, they all look alike. I mean I could probably point one out in the crowd. Okay. I chose this case because David dar Ends looks like one of the people from the movie The Health of Eyes, and he raped a child. Lori died defending her daughter. In the movie, Lizard rapes Brenda and Lynn gets murdered trying to defend her baby. So yeah, that's why I picked it. It's pretty

sure case, pretty straightforward. It's so fucking sad. I'm like, I mean, at least she was able to save her daughter. He's probably going to kill them both, you know. I don't believe it has anything to do with his birth defects. That's why I chose that case because he looks like he'd be in the movie, and the mom died to protecting the daughter. And we're not sure what our next movie is gonna be, but it'll

be soon. I promise next episode will be super soon. I know Christmas is coming up, but that's like three weeks away, so we're trying to try to give you guys three episodes this month. We love you all in case we die bye. Thank you all so much for listening to this week's episode of Gray Girls Podcast. If you want to support her show, please rate and write us a review on iTunes.
