Really? Don't want to lose it.

You lose it if you don't take it. Yeah. Same thing in my work. Use it or lose it. I can only take Thursdays or Fridays off. So you're limited on days. Well, unless I plan it like a year in advance. Damn. Stupid. Yeah. Right. I got to train somebody to do my job.

And then I have to be confident in them doing my job before I am not there to do my job. And then when you have those scheduled days off and it's like, oh, something happened. Well, it looks like I'm working anyway. Yep. Oh, dude. Let me tell you something. Alright? Here it comes. I have not had a day off since the weekend before Christmas. And the reason why is because I got a letter of resignation at 2.30 a.m. Christmas morning. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Kids these days. Motherfucking 27-year-olds these days, dude. Millennials. Yes. Sons of bitches. Damn it, man. Dude, dude, dude. Gentlemen, I made a bit of an error. I made a tactical mistake, if you will, this Saturday. You're not supposed to be here? No, you're supposed to be here. You're supposed to be here. And I found myself someplace I wasn't supposed to be with some people I wasn't supposed to be there with. Are you familiar with a restaurant slash establishment known as Twin Peaks?

Oh, yeah. Yes. I have a lot of traveling that I've done. Gone to a few of them. A few of them. Yeah. So I'm very familiar with it. Dirty man. I have to go to Vegas quite a bit for work, so I've been to a few myself. Okay. I'm assuming you probably got... unlucky by going to one of them that had a

lingerie day. You could say that. And took the wife and kids thinking here's this new restaurant down on this side of town. Let's try it out. Let's see what they got. It says, what does it say? Scenic views beer and food i'm thinking okay maybe it's got like a you know with the old 90s tv show theme or something or got a bunch of pictures of mountains in there

No, it was not to me, my friends. It was actual young supple mountains. Yes. They were supple. I was unaware of the decor of the place, and I took the family in there. I think we lasted all of about... three minutes and then the wife said out we go

And Deacon is like, I think I have to go to the bathroom. I'm like, oh, no. No, no, we're leaving. We're leaving, buddy. Let's go. And he pulled him aside and said, don't worry, son. We'll come back here later. That's right. We'll wait until your sister's in school and come over here.

The old man used to take me and my buddies to Hooters after T-Ball games. Well, not T-Ball. It was probably a little older than that, but Little League games, I remember that. It was right by the field. It was very convenient. It was cheap food and, you know, good atmosphere.

Hooters is not Twin Peaks. No, it is not. Twin Peaks is about as close to a strip club as you can get to not going to a strip club. Yeah. Holy shit, man. The bartender comes around and she's wearing a bra and panties. You can see right through. All of it. It's very lacy and it's just two nipples. I think you went on one of those special days. Two nipples staring me right in the face. I gotta find out when these special days are. Alright kids, you guys go get Nicole.

I'll be right behind you. Usually it's like mini skirts bikinis. Yeah, there was a lot of like the booty shorts and then the... The flannel tie-up. The flannel tie-up. That's the standard decorum. Yeah. But in the... In the bar area, it was all lingerie. All bets off. Lingery, if you will. You get the tips, right? Yes. I've had some tips, that's for sure. All right, you fuckers. Well, we've got a horror show to get into here. Happy New Year, everybody. Hope everybody stayed safe.

We got horror news, listener mail, all the usual fun stuff. Let's kick things off with a little of the old horror news, gentlemen. Yeah. Horror news. Uh, Dusty, what do you got? I just had a couple of things here. So I got this article about Bill Skarsgård was interviewed a while back about Nosferatu, and then he kind of went into a little bit on the it, welcome to Derry. And so he says that it, welcome to Derry, will be pretty hardcore. Skarsgård, who can now be seen playing Count Orlok.

in Nosferatu, who previously played Pennywise, the dancing clown, in the two movies. He'll soon be reprising the role in Welcome to Derry, a new television series premiering on HBO in 2025. Cool, cool. So he's... Talking to the interviewer and he says it's pretty hardcore man. He said

When asked if he had any hesitation in returning to the role of Pennywise, Skarzard said, I felt like I was done with it, in a way. It was also because I was shooting Nosferatu. I was doing Orlok, and to me, it just felt like this is the nail in the coffin of my monster role. roles pun intended so i did feel like it was kind of over it and wanted to do different things of course the pennywise thing as well i've been quite defined by it

I was like, that's 26-year-old me. I'm still a young man. Then things changed. Barbara and Andy, the machetes who are making the show, are doing it. I love them. They're very close friends of mine, family even.

I'm a godfather to his son, so I love them, and that was all right. Let's bring him back. So he said it was fun. I enjoyed it more than I thought it would. Actually, there are parts of it where we got to explore sides of old Pennywise that we haven't seen, and that's fun. I remembered how much I enjoyed working.

working with Andy and we do have a lot of fun together. So anyway, he's excited to reprise his role as Pennywise, a dancing clown. I'm excited for it. I like that. I like the sound of it. He did really good. Yeah, I agree. I know you've read it. Yep. Have you? Yes.

So in the book, there is a lot of backstory as to the history of dairy. And there's a lot of different ways. It all involves Pennywise. Right. And when... form or another or the different shapes that he takes so there's a lot of room for non-Skarsgård Ambiguity there So That could be cool I'm into it I think so And it's HBO dude Yeah Right Has HBO ever put a movie Or a TV show out That we didn't like

I can't think of one off the top. I don't really watch a whole lot of TV shows. I never watched Sex and the City. No. To be honest with you. No. There was one about like a levitating surfer that I never got into. I don't know. It was like Charlie from Cincinnati or something like that. Weird. Cincinnati. Maybe it was Cleveland. I don't know. It was weird. It was a weird one. All right. Well, whatever. Is that all you got, Dusty?

All right, more HBO news or Max news. Yeah, let's go. The Last of Us Season 2 trailer reveals Max's release date window for the series. So, during Sony's Consumer Electronics Show press conference, a new Last of Us Season 2 trailer was released, showing the release date window of the show will premiere in April, although the exact date is not known yet.

So this is what the tagline says. Five years after the events of the first season, Joel and Ellie are drawn into conflict with each other in a world even more dangerous and unpredictable than the one they left behind. So that's what the season two's tagline is. So I'm interested. I really liked the first season. So I need to get caught up on that one. Everybody's got a boner for that last of us business. Hmm.

Our friend Jason Hill. Jason just blew a funky load. Well, I think it's very... Walking Dead. It's very true to the source game. Okay. It follows it very, very well. Okay. Very cool. Yeah, I really liked it. Right on. Yep.

Anything else, big fella? That's all I got. I didn't want to... Buddy? I didn't want to butt in on... Yes, you did. Yes, you did, too. There's three of us today. I wanted to share them. You're thinking about it. We'll make this three hours if we have to. Fuck these guys. All right, buddy, what do you got? of the series grim

I do. Alright, horror fantasy series Grimm returns to life with Reboot Movie. Yeah, buddy. That's right. After six seasons, 123 episodes, NBC canceled the monster-filled series Grimm back in 2017. But it seems popular shows never quite stay dead today. Streaming

landscape so on that note uh it'll be on peacock yes yeah so the exact premise of the grim movie is kept under wraps so we don't know anything about it yet but it is to be have ties to the series for diehard fans but could also be easily accessed by

new viewers not familiar with the original mythology as it introduces new mythology and characters oh boy yeah you were pretty big into that i love that show yeah that was you excited for this i am i i'm definitely ready to check it's been almost 10 years since

that show went off right so okay it's been 10 years since it went off and didn't wasn't there like 18 seasons or something yeah well they started doing like this weird comic book thing but it never really panned out I never never watched I never got into it but I knew there was a ton of seasons Yeah, it was pretty good. I like how they did it. The other thing I got is The Monkey. It's rated R. I don't know if you've checked this out, but Stephen King's The Monkey?

Rated off for strong Bloody Violet content and gore The company that brought long legs this past year Neon is hoping to strike more horror gold Here in 2025 with director Osgood Perkins Follow up movie The Monkey It's a film adaptation of Stephen king's same titled short story the monkey arrives in theaters on february 21st 25 and neon promises brand new trailer coming out january 8th so check that out From Neon producer James Wan is involved in this. So that's pretty good.

In the monkey, when the twin brothers, Hal and Bill, discover the father's old monkey toy in the attic, a series of gruesome deaths start occurring all around them. The brothers decide to throw the monkey away and move on with their lives, growing apart over the years. But when the mysterious deaths begin again, The brothers must reunite to find a way to destroy the monkey for good before it takes the lives of everyone close to them.

Yeah. I've seen actually the trailer. It looks pretty badass. It looks pretty dope. Yeah. It looks pretty bloody. Pretty badass. I'm into it. Speaking of bloody, you like Valentine horror movies? Can't get enough. Can't get enough, buddy. All right. Well, there's a new trailer for Heart to Eyes. Promises very bloody Valentine's in theaters this February 25th. Scribbity do.

yeah heart eyes heart eyes yes uh this valentine's day no couple is safe the filmmakers behind freaky happy death day and werewolves within join forces for this year's slasher movie heart eyes and the brand new And here's a quick synopsis. For the past several years, the heart-eye killer has wreaked havoc on Valentine's Day, shocking, by stalking and murdering romantic couples. This Valentine's Day, no couple is safe.

Get the fuck out of here. You might have had me if you didn't call the movie Hard Eyes. You say that and all I see is that dipshit emoji. Get fucked. I'm not interested. That's all I got. What do you got? Dude, dude, dude, dude, dude. Do you guys know the backstory between George Romero and Resident Evil? Oh, very minor, but a little bit. It went on for decades. So George Romero was contracted before he died. We're talking like 97-ish to make a Resident Evil movie.

Back and forth with Sony because it's a Sony property. Creative differences. They wanted like a basically a – Film adaptation of the game. Romero being Romero wanted to put all this political messaging in it. Make it his own. They said no. Negotiations back and forth and back and forth and back and forth. And then he died.

Actually, then he made Land of the Dead and then a bunch of other shitty zombie movies and then he died. Documentary coming out. George Romero's Resident Evil is going to hit VOD today. If anybody wants to know the full scoop on what's going on there. We don't have to watch it. You just told us the whole scoop. Oh, no. There's like his daughter got involved in some shit, and Sony was trying to put distance, but they still had to pay him because it was a soap.

opera dude and in the meantime that's why George Romero didn't make any movies from 19 1991 when Bruiser came out all the way until 2005 when Land of the Dead came out because he was tied up with his Sony horse shit. If you want, I could just tell you the whole fucking thing right now. Yeah, I was like, you're on a roll. I am. It's a whole thing.

Frank Grillo's Werewolves will hit Blu-ray this February. I know who loves Frank Grillo. Me. The Red Queen. I don't know why. He looks like a handsome gentleman. what else we got here R.L. Stine has confirmed three more Fear Street movies

You guys see the Fear Street movies? Yeah, love them. Pretty good stuff. I left that one for you. That was on deck there, and I left that one for you. I try to take as many as I can. I know. You're a fucking asshole. Lastly, it looks like... Do you guys remember... Okay. You guys have seen The Toxic Avenger, right? Oh, yeah. Do you remember in the late 80s there was like a cartoon adaptation called Toxic Crusaders? I do. It was like a very family-friendly version of...

Toxic Crusader video game to release this year, 2025. On what platform? All of them. Oh, wow. Yeah. Okay. So... What is the... Is it side-scrolling? No details. No details. There was a Toxic Crusader video game on the NES. Exactly. It was almost unplayable. I had it. It was... fucking ridiculous. Never played it. It was a side-scroller and it was just the little guy with the mop bebopping around and then you jump and then you go. It was a side-scroller. It was stupid.

That's all we got on the horror news, dudes. You guys ready for some listener mail? Yeah. Sure. Get that. Listener mail. Hey, we got emails and voicemails and all kinds of stuff coming in here. Let's get all the way down to Sydney, Australia, gentlemen. All right. Here comes Tim from the Dummy of Horror. You know him.

Subject line, Happy New Year, you bunch of sex gods. Wow. All right. I like where this is going. Let's start already. All righty. Just take it easy there, Tim. Jesus Christ. I'm a married man. And I just got kicked out of Twin Peaks. Happy New Year's, you guys. Hope it was great. Mine was the usual shit. New Year's is usually the weakest party of the year, I feel, and this one was no different.

Anyway, time to quick 2025 in the... I think he meant kick 2025 in the dick. Let's start with probably the toughest Terradome matchup in years, Michael Myers versus The Creeper. Look, I get that the Creeper is the obvious choice here, but I don't think Myers can be defeated that easily. Let's say that the Creeper picks up Myers and flies away with him. Myers could just stab him mid-flight and maybe end it. Look, I'm reaching here.

understand, and I really like both antagonists, but I'm going to put my vote down for Michael Myers. I just have a weird feeling he could win this. Well, the thing is, Tim, the creeper got ran over, backed over, ran over again, backed over again, and still got up. What is that little blade going to do? It might make him fall.

might give him like a ah and that's about it really unless you have the harpoon to stick him to the barn door that's what you need that's right you gotta fucking lance him like a zit maybe not like a zit I don't know Cut his head off. That might do it. I don't know.

Hey, I have a question for you guys. We are doing our best and worst horror films of 2024 over on the Dummies of Horror this week, but I want to know what is your favorite and least favorite film of 2024. That's it for me, guys. Much love and much love to the inmates. as well uh top of my head tim i can't really think of a least favorite um top of my my my best my favorite film of 2024 i'm gonna say is um

Late Night with the Devil. That's going to be mine. Ooh, yeah, that was good. Yeah. Any thoughts, dudes? Yeah, we were discussing this the other night with our... Boys in the Basement thread. Yeah. And it was tough, but I was going back and forth between, I actually forgot.

About late night with the devil. Yeah. Because I watched it a while back and my memory is shot. It was early 2020. But I really, really liked that one too. That's my favorite. So mine was going back and forth between, I'd say top three were the late or. Was in a violent nature. I really love that movie. That's a good one too. Just the premise of it and the originality of it. And so that one, Late Night with the Devil. And then I really enjoyed...

Alien Romulus. I was going to go there too. That's another good one. The shit ones, I can't even remember. I think the shittiest movie we watched or I watched all year was that... The farm, but I don't think that was made in 2024, so I guess you can't count that one. If I just... Thinking out loud, if I had to pick a movie that I didn't really care for that was made in 2024, did you ever see I Saw the TV Glow? I never watched it because you were back. I never...

Decided to watch it. Maybe I'm not smart enough for it. It felt like somebody got paid to make a horror movie but didn't want to make a horror movie. So they kind of shat out a sideways horror movie that's not really horror at all. I don't know. Maybe I'm thinking about this too much. Buddy, what do you think? You got anything? For me, it's a toss-up of Late Night with the Devil and The Substance because I really enjoy that. Really? Yeah. Okay. That definitely makes my...

my honorable mentions as well. That is, that's a head scratcher for me. I feel like I, there was just so much in the substance. I was like, this is almost like a flashback to, um, But it was just so unique. But same thing with Late Night with the Devil. I mean, this is like, man, it's a long time coming for something like this. Yeah, yeah. Oh, it was great. Yeah, totally. I'm into it. But worst, I don't know. I've seen so many bad ones.

No glue. Just go to Tubi. They're all there on Tubi. They're all bad. Yeah. Right on, dude. Well, thanks for writing in there, Tim. We got some voicemails coming at us, fellas. All right. All right, let's kick things off with our main man in Alabama. Here comes Alan. Hey, Alan. What's up, Alan? What's going on? Good Christmas, good New Year. Yeah, you too. 2025 is a good year for everybody.

I'm going to go Michael Meyer, Mr. Darian. I do believe you're American Mary. I'll see what have I watched. I watched Krampus. Attaboy. Violent Night. Finally saw Terrifier 3. Loved it. Okay. Red State. That's a good one. There was other stuff, but I can't remember it all anyway. Hope everybody's doing good. Talk to y'all later. Bye.

Right on. Thanks for calling in, Alan. Red State. Haven't seen that one in a long time. I haven't seen it in a while, but I remember really liking it. That's a good one. Yeah. I have to put that on my list. I don't know if I've seen it. Kevin Smith. Kevin Smith. It's not Kevin Smith. No. It's not a comedy. No. There is nothing comedic about that one. Oh, here's somebody we haven't heard from in a while. Here comes Cooper.

Oh, hey, Cooper. Beautiful. Downtown Anderson, Indiana. Darien. What's up? What's up, man? Hey, I wanted to tell you, good luck to you, Vikings. Oh, thank you very much. Two, I also wanted to ask you just this question. Okay. Is there anything coming out this year that you're particularly looking forward to horror movie-wise? I've heard some rumors about Smart Eyes.

I'm kind of internet stupid, so I don't know if I'm actually watching trailers of actual movies that's been made or if they're just those fake things that people are making that are pretty convincing. So, anyway, just curious about your thoughts. Anything cool coming out that you're excited for? Hope you're doing well. Keep kicking ass, man. I'll talk to you later. Beautiful. Thanks for calling in, Coop.

Nothing really off the top of my head comes to mind. I am excited about this Welcome to Dairy show. That sounds pretty dope. I'm pretty excited about the Wolfman. Wolfman looks good. Trailers look good. What else? The fucking thing you were just talking about. Hard eyes? No, not hard eyes. Get off of it, buddy. Get the fuck out of here. Son of a bitch. Grim movie? No, not the Grim movie. It was the fucking thing that I just said. One of us just said something about a goddamn... No.

I don't know. That was something that we were talking about. I don't know. I just fucking blew... I'm getting old, fellas. Our memories are shit. Yeah, for real. I can't remember what we talked about two minutes ago. I don't even know what I'm doing here. I'm trying to think. There was something coming around... Halloween. Was it another Saw movie? It wouldn't surprise me. Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me either.

But I know there was something I was looking forward to around Halloween. Okay. I thought it would be pretty good, but I don't remember what it was. Whatever it is, it's going to be dope, I'm sure. Yeah. Right on, dude. Let's get down to Southern California. Here comes Mr. Tom Hardy. Hey, Tom Hardy. Mad Max himself. Heyo! Heyo! What's up, big baby?

Happy New Year. Happy New Year. Looking forward to a good year in the asylum. You betcha. I wanted to get in real quick there on the educating department. I'm starting this off right. Let's go. Got to be American. You got me. Got it. You know what? I'm just going to retire. I'm no longer going to participate in the Educate. Okay. Go out on a high note. I love it. He's one for one in 2025. I'll fuck it up next time around. I wanted to get in as well on the Terror Dome. What do you think?

wanted to get in on the terror dome there yeah uh we got uh michael myers and the creeper yes sir um I know, I know some fucking jackasses are going to go with the creeper. And I know they're going to say, his wings, his wings, you know. He does have wings, sir. Come on, man. This is fucking Michael Myers. This is the ultimate stalker.

He is going to have that fucking little critter disemboweled before it can ever unfurrow. I fail to see how that would happen, but all right. I mean, just because the thing has wings doesn't mean... What is... It means it can fly. That's what that means. He can fly. He can take flight. He's fucking molested a bunch of high school boys. Let's not get crazy. That was the director. That was the director. Fuck that guy, man.

Let's be honest. When you look at that entire fucking franchise, the first one was good. Second one wasn't bad. Second one was okay, but it was kind of getting out there. And after that, it's been nothing but peace. I'll give you that. Especially when you take a look at the fucking director or writer, director, whoever. The creator of the fucking creeper, man. Just understand all this in me. The name of it. You vote for the creeper.

You're fucking giving support to that. I'm not sure that's true. I'm just fucking... Yeah, just quote yourself. Also, on the What Are You Looking At department, got to catch a couple of things. Yeah, what do you got? Got to finish out Only Murders. In the building? Very cool. Pretty good. I think it was better than the third season. Okay. Still don't think it's good as the first two, but hey, man, it was fun. All right. I got to catch this flick called 30 Miles from Nowhere.

I think I've seen that. You know, it had an interesting twist at the end, but I just don't think it would work an hour and a half to get there. Yeah, I know what you're talking about. Unfortunately, if you read the tagline, not the tagline, You know, the little description, it sounded particularly appealing to me. You know, these friends get together after a long time because of one of their funerals.

And then, you know, fucking Madness. Of course. Again, I wanted... A lot of GP, of course. I have seen 30 Miles from Nowhere. It's just drama. 90% trauma. Accusing each other of sleeping with each other's boyfriends and girlfriends and then... Okay, well now the dead friend whose funeral that they are there to mourn, now we're casting dispersions about the cause of death and who may have benefited from that individual being...

If he was murdered, it's a whole ass thing. More of a murder mystery, I would say, than anything, as I recall. Right on. He called back. Here we go. Oh, hell yeah. Hell yeah. Man, the first fucking GP of 2020. There you go. You did it. Start off strong. Like I said, I wanted to like it better than it was. I kind of recommend Stay Away. Yeah.

I agree. But then I got to catch a Constantine flick, not the... Oh, one of those animated ones? ...we're all familiar with. This was actually an animated one. Yeah. Constantine, City of Demons. Yeah. uh never seen it before i didn't even know it existed uh but another chance that uh wanted it to be better than it actually was okay yeah it's kind of messed up because

I mean, I don't really know the comic, to be honest with you. So I don't know if this follows the comic closer. But in this one here, John Constantine's English, and he's got blonde hair. It just kept fucking throwing me off. Like, wait. How is that? I think that's how it is in the comic. So I don't know. Maybe that follows the comic closer. Even with that, I thought it was just okay. I thought considering that, hey, this is going to be animated. Yeah.

special effects budget sure you know or what you can and can't do or oh we had to use CGI it all animated I thought it was just gonna be fucking off the top but I don't know it was just okay um And then I got to catch Victor Crawley. I know. I like the Hatchet series. This is the first time you... I thought it was okay for what it was. You know what you're getting. You know what you're getting. One of the things that I found kind of disappointing about it is exactly that. Sure. Sure. Sure.

And there's no fucking Victor Crowley. You're on an airplane. We know what we're in for. This is a fucking fourth one, man. Let's fucking go for it. All right. I'm sorry. Yeah, that's all I got. Hope all is well. Beautiful. Love you like family. Happy New Year, Inmate. Happy New Year. Happy New Year, Marty. Love you too, big guy.

So the only murders in the building? Yeah. We've seen them all. And we got the board game. There's a board game? Yeah, there's a board game for it. It's actually a lot of fun. Tom Hardy, if you like the show, definitely check out the board game. It's a lot of fun. He actually plays those characters and all that stuff. Yeah, it's pretty neat. Right on. The Red Queen and I started watching. We haven't got through much of it yet.

episode three or four of the first season but okay yeah that's good it's a lot of fun yeah yeah right on that's all we got on the listener mail dudes uh how about a movie yeah yeah They came to pay their respects. They're coming to get you, Barbara. I didn't have to be so cool. What? Show some respect. Now. They're running for their lives. Biologists in Stockton, California have released reports focusing on the phenomenon, specifically on that trance-like state. Every shelter.

Is becoming a trap. Are you sure we're gonna be alright? Cooper you gotta help me out! And every road out. Don't stop no matter what happens. Is just another dead end. They're coming right for us. George Romero's Night of the Living Dead. That's right. It's Night of the Living Dead from 1990, gentlemen. Yeah. Now here's what we're going to be doing in 2025. A horror... showcase. Each month we're going to take one horror celebrity and we're going to do a showcase on that individual. This month

As chosen by Dusty, Mr. Tom Savini. Yeah. Starting off with Night of the Living Dead, his directorial debut from 1990. Nice. This one got 6.8 stars, was directed by Tom Savini. Written by John Russo. Stars Tony Todd, Patricia Tallman, and Tom Towles.

This is a very weird version of Tom Towle. Yeah. He's kind of classy, but at the same time, he's very douchey. Which I guess is in, you know, keeping in character of Cooper from the original Night of the Living Dead. Yeah, a bunch of yo-yos. Yeah, a bunch of yo-yos. of lame brains this is a remake of the original 1968 Night of the Living Dead obviously and it's pretty loyal to the source material with some slight variations along the way.

We start off right where we're supposed to with Johnny and Barbara headed to the cemetery bickering like a couple of adolescents the whole way. Oh, come on, Johnny. Just get it together, will you? Barbara, what are we doing out here? They're coming for you, Barbara. They're horny, Barbara. This time they're horny because it's 1990. Yeah, and that's how it goes down, man. They go to their father's grave. It was their mom.

I think. Was it? Yeah, you're right. It was. In the original, it was the father because mom wants to pay her respects but doesn't want to drive all the way out from Pittsburgh. Wherever this place is, it's apparently about three hours outside of Pittsburgh, which is where Johnny and Barbara actually live.

This is a different version of Barbara. For one, she's not nearly as ditzy. She's kind of butch, actually. She didn't start out that way. She started out pretty... basket casey and then she really fell into uh she kind of went full on full on which is kind of cool But this is the same Johnny and Barbara Johnny, by the way, this time played by Bill Moseley. You may remember him as Chop Top or Otis Driftwood. Otis Driftwood, yep.

He plays a pretty good prick. Yeah. And Johnny always was a prick, so he fits right in. And he's still got Johnny's driving gloves. Have either of you ever owned a pair of driving gloves? Not one. Nope. I don't even see the need for a pair of driving gloves. Why do you need driving gloves when your steering wheel is heated?

Oh, my goodness. Do you not want to touch the actual steering wheel? What is the point of that? I don't get it. But back, you know, we're talking like 60s, 70s. You didn't drive without a pair of driving gloves. Remember how slippery steering wheel is.

wheels were back in the 70s and 80s apparently big really thin where they said oh god i can't you don't remember sitting behind your mom's car in the driveway doing this shit when you're five years old no oh my god i mean steering wheel big big steering wheel And they were all just plastic. They didn't have any grip on them. So I can understand the driving gloves for cars back then. But modern cars are all wrapped in leather and shit, you know.

They were more for, like, slapping people anyway. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Initiating a duel. Yeah, that's right. I said good day, sir. I said good day. Anyway, he looks just like... What's his name there? From the original. You know, he's got the tweed jacket and the comb over. They're giving each other a hard time there in the cemetery. And you see the guy coming up behind him.

Now, normally this would be Bill Hinsman, and he's going to be zombie numero uno. In this case, it is not Bill Hinsman. It is not even a zombie. It's just a terrified little old man that has, like... the onset early stages of PTSD because he's just got Lee's wide eyes and he bumps into Barbara as Johnny's making an ass out of himself. And he's, I'm sorry. I'm very sorry. And everybody's like, oh, hey, buddy. You okay there?

Now, we can do the math. We know what's about to happen. Not too far from where Johnny and Barbara are paying their respects is, or was, an actual funeral in process. And this guy probably saw patient zero. Pop out of that coffin and wreak some fucking havoc. And somehow this little old guy got away and managed to stagger himself into Johnny and Barbara. Johnny is like, hey man, you doing okay there? And that's when the actual zombie shows up. Now, this...

is Tom Savini directing and also doing creature effects. So we get a very beautiful practical effect zombie here. Not quite fresh out of the casket, but... Looked like he's probably dug his way out. Yeah, that didn't look too... No, not too carcass-y. Maybe a month or so. Sure, I'll buy that. He comes out. He gets into a tussle with Johnny. In this...

Iteration, Barbara does a pretty good job of helping the zombie kick Johnny's ass, which was inadvertent, but she put a couple of fucking crossbody chops on him. Yeah. which of course then leads to Johnny's demise. She might have been the one that threw out the leg to trip them both into the... You know what? Yeah. Fuck you both. Fucking assholes. Make fun of me. Take him with you. The first death wasn't even by zombie. It was by bashing his head into the side of the...

Tomb there. That's how it goes down, dude. You can't be roughhousing in a cemetery, dude. um then we get the big pursuit the zombie uh now this is a little uncharacteristic because throughout the movie the zombie kills somebody and then immediately starts eating them In this case, it is not to be because the zombie hops right off of Johnny and then starts staggering after Barbara. Now, this is actually...

Kind of true to the source material because in the original, zombies don't run except for Bill Hinsman who takes off at a dead sprint chasing the car as it goes down the hill. So Barbara makes it back to her car. The zombie comes and starts trying to break in. She hits the e-brake release, which sends it careening down a hill and crashing into a tree. Pretty accurate to the original film so far.

From there she gets out, and this is where we see what was the funeral in process. And there appears to be a guy, just a regular old dude, walking up the hill towards her. And she's like, oh, dude, you've got to get me out of here. There's fucking crazy... Guy up there and he stinks real bad. And we cut to the back of this guy and we see apparently when they bury you, they don't actually dress you in the suit. They just have like a...

Cut down the back. Just drape it around you. Put it around you and make it look like you got a suit on. Which means, gentlemen, we are getting buried with our ass cracks out. I was painfully unaware of that. You don't need it anymore. True, but if there's one thing I would like covered and smothered into the great hereafter, it's the...

The buttholes. So, in other words, you want the cut in the front instead of the back. Sure. Okay. That's fine. That'll be an interesting funeral. You know. Yeah. Open casket? Open casket. Very open if you know what I mean. We can't even close it if you know what I mean. It was a hard way to go. Hey-o! So, as this guy's...

Walking up towards the car, his suit comes off because it's slit down the back, and then we see the autopsy scar, and this is zombie number two. This guy, I assume, did come right out of that casket because he's very well preserved, looks good, his hair is done.

all that stuff. And then Barbara's like, oh, fuck you too, pal. And then she just goes hauling ass out of there. We're right where we're supposed to be as far as the movie goes. She goes through some... quick little woods comes around there's a barn kind of hangs out there for a second and then spots the big farmhouse they're just to the just beyond it so she goes hauling ass over there uh gets there knocks on the door tries to do the right thing um

Door's open, so she lets herself in. Hello? The back door was open. I think the front door was still locked. It could be. Yeah. She gets in. Hello? Anybody in here? Somehow, a fucking hand by itself comes out of a stairway banister and does like a closed fist punch to the face on her. That's like a Mortal Kombat fatality right there. The disembodied hand maneuver. Pow!

fuck it's raining body parts in here uh she falls down and then we see uncle reage who is uh the wilford brimley of zombies come staggering out do a full-on front face plant collapse Over the second story banister. Into a King Kong Bundy splash. Which luckily she avoids. But he gets up.

He's full on zombie. Half his face is off. And she's like, oh, God. She goes hauling ass outside. And now we've got like three or four other zombies are slowly making their way up the hill towards the house. So she's like, oh, these fucking assholes. Good news, though, there's a truck coming down the driveway at full speed. So she's like, I don't know. Truck comes down, smashes through one zombie, sends him flying through the air, and out pops Ben, played by Tony Todd.

I don't think you can do a better Ben outside of Tony Todd and Dwayne Jones. In the 80s or early 90s? I don't think so. Lawrence Fishburne. auditioned for this part. Did he? Really? So did somebody else. There was another big name that auditioned for it. I forget who it was, though. Lawrence Fishburne would have been good. He's a good actor. I think he would have done pretty good, yeah. There was another one. Fuck, I forget who it was.

it was but anyway uh he gets out uh he's like hey everything okay what's going on uh truck's almost out of gas we got to get out of here dude i saw the gas there's a gas pump in the barn i guess Some farms have their own gas tanks on site. That's cool. Sure. Gas up the tractor and go plow the field. Does a truck come through and fill up the gas tank?

tank underneath like it does at gas stations? I don't know. I'm just thinking out loud. You get trucks come through and fill up your propane tanks. I wouldn't imagine that they could come fill up your gas tanks. I'll buy that. He's like, hey, I got to put gas in the truck and we'll get out of here. And she's like... I don't know what I'm doing. And she's like, oh, you don't live here. Okay. So they go inside. He's like, okay.

Let's see if we can find the keys to the gas pump. More zombies are coming in, and this is where we find out that Ben is a certified badass because he just goes out there with a crowbar and just starts killing zombies left and right. which is pretty dope. Yeah. I like to think that's what I would do and not turn into Barbara, which is probably what I would actually... Dead things! I don't know, man.

I'd probably be like the hillbillies at the end. It's something that would be... a lot of fun i think i mean yeah set up like little fighting arenas and make them fight each other and stuff that'd be fun um so that's cool uh he comes in he's like okay everything cool well no obviously we can't we got to get out of here but we can't because...

My truck is almost out of gas, but if we can find the keys to the gas tank out in the back, then we can fill it up and get the fuck out of here. Do you have a car? Barbara, at this point in the movie, is basically catatonic. A lot of shivering, a lot of, I don't know, what's happening? A lot of sweating. She's very sweaty. I guess we're in mid-June, we'll say. Actually, there was a date at the beginning. I think it said we were in August of 1989.

So that actually makes sense. Right on. So, no. But we've got to do something here. We can't just look for the guest. tank keys so what we're going to do ben decides we're going to uh fortify the house that way we're safe while we look for the gas tank keys very cool um start boarding things up and banging around and you know

Boarding up the windows and stuff. More zombies hear the banging. Now, here's something I've always wondered. And I think this is going to speak to the logic of the original movie and things that come into play later in this movie. Why don't you just go?

Well, that's what Barbara kept telling us. I know. She's all, look how slow they are. We can just run. We can pretty much walk past them. Yeah. Until they get a horde. Right. Then you're pretty screwed. As long as you don't let them corner you, though, you're fine. And that's something that I always found kind of redemptive about the original movie is that, sure, they're scary and they're dead and they probably smell bad and they will eat you if you get close enough to them. Just run.

I know. Just go. Just run. I agree. Whatever, man. It's fine. Barbara will bring that up later on in the movie. Instead, we decide we're going to fortify the house until we can find the keys to the gas tank. Very cool. We're rooting around. We find some food. cool we get a fire going excellent uh we kind of get some back and forth between ben and barbara um

Barbara kind of, oh, we went to the cemetery to pay our respects. Oh, you have a car. Where's your car? Johnny's got the keys. I don't know where Johnny is. Okay, well, we'll just... Figure this out here, I guess. So just chill out. Barbara is... Not quite the Judith O'Day Barbara from the 1968 movie. This one's actually like up and moving around and trying to help. She took out Wilford Brimley. She did. With a fire poker. And the diabetes.

put an end to that diabetes living diabetes I don't know if that makes sense night of the living diabetes I don't know 2025 oh that's a stupid movie coming very soon I'm sure Straight to red box. So yeah, that's cool. And at one point she takes her shirt off and she's got like a wife beater thing underneath. I am a sucker for a lady and a wife beater, gentlemen. Yep, that's a bit of all right. That's a bit of all right for me. Patricia Tallman, not unattractive.

Got that 1992 substitute teacher look going on. Sometimes the short hair works. Sometimes. It wasn't working on her. You don't think so? Nah, nah. She's not unattractive. No, no. I agree, but just the hair. thing yeah it was a little too a little too short yeah yeah it's uh had like a weird kind of a tom cruise thing going on here anyway so you liked it i mean i like a woman and a wife being so everything's cool they're banging around more zombies are coming up they're safe for the moment

And then out of nowhere, a door, a downstairs door opens and out pops a guy in a tuxedo. And a little bit, wait, what the fuck are you doing? What are you guys doing? No, what are you doing here? There's been people in the basement, the whole fucking... in time buddy now they could have came up and helped but they did they no so there is a cellar to this place and there's only one entrance it's a pretty reinforced door it's got one of those

Two by four latch things that goes down in front of it, whatever you call that thing. So it's pretty sturdy. And to the credit of the people down there, number one, Barb and Ben didn't find the basement door. So they're kind of right about... it being secure and safe. But later on, Ben will make the point that there's only one way in and out, which means if the zombies do get in there, you're cornered and they're going to eat your ass. So we're going to meet these a-holes. We have...

Judy Rose, we have her boyfriend Tommy, and we're going to find out they are the nephews of the property owners there. And then we have Cooper and his wife Ellen and their daughter Samantha. Samantha has been bit, gentlemen. Now, we're at the point in the movie where we don't necessarily know that's a ticket to Zombie Town, so we're going to give her a free pass for the moment. But we would like to get her to a doctor as soon as possible.

We've got to get the keys to that gas thing to get fuel in the truck, to get the truck on the road to get her to the hospital. Now, this is the crux of the George Romero story, is that even in times of crisis like this, humans as... Part of human nature can not and will never be able to put their differences aside to actually work together because you're going to have conflicting personalities.

bickering alpha males. Who's going to be in charge? I'm going to be in charge. No, you're not. We've got to get down in the basement. And to be fair, Cooper is a bit of a douche nozzle. Oh, he's a lot of a douche nozzle. He is, but unfortunately, he doesn't. make a lot of good points by wanting to go to the basement um i mean it was secure and they didn't know now for now sure but as proven later on in the movie at the towards the very end when ben goes down there zombies never get down there

True. Only the rednecks with the chainsaw. Something to think about. Also, TVs. But you don't have any food down there. Well, maybe they did. I don't know. I don't know if they did or not. But... TVs also do not get reception in the basement, not with the old rabbit ears. Nope. Right. Unless you had your kid standing there holding it. Or if you had a bunch of coat hangers that you ran up...

To the outside. There you go. You'd need like 38 coat hangers to make that happen. Not that I've ever measured it or anything. All right, so that's pretty gnarly. Now the sun is set and it is officially night of the living dead. More zombies are coming. They're banging, hammering things, making more noise. They've got every fucking light in the house on. They're in there. It sounds like a rock.

show is going on in there they're drawing the attention of every fucking zombie on that side of pittsburgh i'm sure i got a better idea turn the lights out Be fucking quiet. Stop yelling at each other. And we'll be just fine. Right. You know, when daybreak hits, we can... Run and be all right. They'll disperse off the porch and you can just walk right by them. That's all there is to it. Or, well, we didn't get into this. Yeah, actually, we did get into this. They don't like fire.

So later on in the movie, well actually right about now, now that I think about it, we drag Uncle Regis' body out there, light him on fire, and all the zombies kind of shove off from burning Uncle Regis. First they grab his... He asked Tommy, because it was Tommy's Uncle Revis, right? He says, did your Uncle Revis carry his keys in his pocket? So they searched his pocket first, and then they did the fire deal. Yeah, so we have some options.

Probably not the best idea to just kind of cornhole ourselves into this place. But whatever, dude. Whatever. I'm not splitting hairs over this. So, okay. That's great. More... bickering and back fighting between ben and cooper that's pretty much a constant in the movie that doesn't stop these two cannot get along at all One of my favorite things is Cooper's use of expletives without actually cussing. Yeah, you bunch of yo-yos. You lame brains! I love it, man. I don't know why. He said it twice.

I know! You bunch of yo-yos! What? What the hell? He's really angry, and he's dropping yo-yos and lame brains on you. The Y-word. You mental midgets! What? Wow. You so-and-so scottywags! Uh... But, yeah, that's fun. I don't know why we couldn't just throw in a fucking idiot or a you morons or something, you know, you dipshits. It's got an R rating, Tom Savini, so why not? Whatever. Might as well use it. I know. You already got the R rating. Yeah. All right. Whatever. No big deal.

So that's fun. And of course the bickering goes on and on. Cooper basically refuses to help Ben board up the place. But luckily Judy Rose and Tommy are like, OK. Ben's got a good point. We probably shouldn't corner ourselves down there, so come on up. Helen, Cooper's wife, also agrees, but because Cooper's kind of a domineering douchebag, she has to stay down in the cellar with the sick Samantha, who was bitten.

Good news, Samantha is pretty much comatose at this point. She's not zombie-ish yet. She's just kind of... Fading out. Yes. Just laying on the table. Dying as whatever infection or whatever it is is taking her. Um...

Cooper keeps going downstairs and relaying the events to Ellen. Ellen's like, oh, you're such an asshole. We should be up there helping. And he's like, no, because once they get in there, they're going to have to come down here. And then they're going to be begging for my help. And she's like. And then what? Are you going to let him down here? And he's like, oh, I'll think about it or something. So that's great. They find a bunch of old doors. There's a TV upstairs.

They turn it on and this is where we get the action news report. So in the original movie, it was only along the eastern seaboard. But in this one, there's references made to Stockton, California and how the... outbreak or whatever you want to call it, is basically all over the United States. You've seen it, so it's like people are thinking it's nuclear radiation, some kind of a viral attack.

various other mutations things like that they're beating around the bush and not wanting to say that these are the living dead right and at one point somebody i think it was the stockton stockton california scientists is like We have confirmed that the recently dead are returning to life and attacking the living. Yeah, the guy that was given the report. Someone passed him a sheet. This just in from the Stockton Laboratories.

The dead are returning to life, and he has his... Yeah. Serious. This is nonsense. But, I mean, we know. We know what's going on. Right. We've seen the zombies coming out of the cemetery and the guy with the autopsy scars. Because Cooper doesn't believe it. No. Remember? Yeah. He had to, well, I don't know the point where.

she used the gun and shot the one that was breaking in and said, is he dead? Is he dead? Kept shooting it, and then she shot him in the head, and then he finally gets it. Yeah, and that's how born again hard this version of Barbara is. That's right. She doesn't give a fuck.

At one point, there is a minor incursion. One of the fucking zombies pushes through the boards. And as Dusty alluded to, Barbara basically uses him as a period of instruction on... zombie killing 101 right don't shoot him in the chest as you can see no effect you're still moving around and she's not as PC about it as I am she's like you see this you fuckers is he dead yet no and then she shoots him in the head and that's it so for the person

for the purposes of this film we now know mythology wise headshots the only way to do it dude these are slow moving zombies To quote the sheriff later on in the movie, they're dead. They're all messed up. They're dead, man. They're all messed up. Again, more with the bickering. At one point, they finally reach a breaking point. Cooper goes upstairs and he's watching the TV and he's trying to bring it downstairs. And Ben catches him and just...

fucking puts an ass whipping on him. And in the process, the TV goes... like rolling down the cellar stairs and smashes into a thousand pieces. Now, to Cooper's credit, he said he wasn't trying to take it down to the cellar, and he's right. Reception is shit in the cellar. So Ben clearly jumped the gun on this one with the ass-whipping and the smashing of the TV. Well, he was heading towards the cellar door. But he said... I'm not like a Cooper apologist here, but...

He did say in the... Oh, he said, but I think he's full of shit. But seriously, he wouldn't get any reception down there, and he knows he wouldn't get any reception down there. Therefore, I don't think he was trying to take it down there. More to the point, what we're talking about here is two alpha males that don't like each other from the jump. And now anything that either one of them does is going to piss the other one off. So regardless if you're helping or not or you're –

not helping fast enough. Because you're there. It's because you're there and I don't like you. There's people at work I feel the exact same way about. You're doing a great job. But just go fuck yourself anyway. You know what I mean? Just get away from me. I just can't look at your stupid face. I just want to punch you so bad. All right. I'm venting a little bit. Everything, so now, and then this is when Judy Rose kind of loses her shit. She's like, God damn it, you fucking idiots.

This isn't your house. This is technically Tommy's house, but his uncle's house. We should kick you both out right now if we want to. Technically she can't, but makes a good argument. And then we kind of calm down for a little bit. And we get to snooping around. We find... some keys not necessarily the gas keys but a set like a big key ring full of I imagine every farmer has a big key ring oh yeah all kinds of tractors and things locked up and I'm sure there's a I think it's a status symbol of

Oh, sure. How many keys do you have on your belt? I got 27. How about you? How much noise do you make? That's what I want to know. Here, run to the mailbox and pack. I want to hear it. I can't run. It's too heavy. No, I can't barely keep my pants up. That's right. That's why I wear them suspenders. Keep my key belt in. That's right. Um, they, they, they're feeling lucky with this set of keys here. Okay, great. Excellent. Here's the plan. Uh, we're going to un, un, unboard up the door. Uh,

Tommy is going to drive. Ben is going to ride shotgun. They're going to drive to the gas pumps, unlock the gas tank, take the lock off, fill up the truck. Bring it around, pick everybody up, and off we go. Oh, wait, we should have one more person. We should definitely bring Judy Rose because she knows how to drive.

Pretty sure anybody could do this. But whatever. You want to bring her? Let's bring her. She's a real good driver. Been driving her daddy's trucks and she could reach the pedals. We're driving 30 meters and then we're going to turn around and come back. I think I can handle it. But all right. Whatever. You want to bring her? That's fine. So, okay. Excellent. Out we go. Ben's thinking with his head on. He's got a torch to just keep the zombies at bay because they don't like fire.

Fucking truck won't start. So, shit. Tommy is fighting them off. Ben's keeping them in pay. Judy's trying to get the truck started. Everything's... Let's get a little tense there for a second. Luckily, the engine kicks on. Tommy jumps in, and off they go. Nobody thought to pick up Ben, so he's just running after them. He throws the torch in the back of the truck. Okay. Kind of half-ass hops in. And then Judy Rose takes a sharp turn.

Whoops. Off he goes. Oh, shit. We lost Ben. You got to go back for him. Go back for him. And he's screaming at her. He's screaming at her. Oh, you got to go back to get Ben. And she just keeps going. No, no, no. No, she didn't even acknowledge him. No, she's screaming too the whole time. That's why I don't let my wife drive. She was a great choice for a driver, by the way. Sure.

If you like throwing black men out of the vehicle, then yeah. Anyway, they get to the gas pumps. Ben is like, I don't know, 50 meters behind him, and he can see them. Here comes the zombies, lazily making their way towards the gas pumps. Tommy hops out, starts fiddling with the keys, and he's like, Judy, go back and get Ben. Make it snappy. Now the truck won't start again. Fucking Tommy cannot figure out the keys, so he decides to shoot the gas pump. The lock off the gas pump.

Genius. Oh, these are some smart rubes. Clearly, we are, in fact, dealing with lame brains. Yes, lame brains. And again, Cooper is right. Yep. You're making a good case for Cooper's attitude here. Gas, of course, sprays all over the place, ignites the torch that Ben threw in the back of the truck, and kaboom! Everything goes out. There goes the truck, there goes Tommy, and there goes Judy Rose.

Our remaining survivors back at the house, which comprises of Barbara, Ellen, Cooper, and the now full-on zombie Samantha in the basement, see this and they're like, fuck. There goes our out. That was our only shot. Okay, let's board the place back up. I don't know what we'll do. Cooper decides that he wants Barbara's gun, so he's like...

I want that gun. Give me that gun, why don't you? And she's like, get fucked, Cooper. A little bit of a struggle. Eventually, Cooper gets the gun away from her, just as Ben is making his way back to the house. Barb is trying to get the boards off to let Ben in, and Cooper is holding her at gunpoint, saying, no, he's not coming back in here. Good news. Barbara manages to fight Cooper off for a second.

um and not long enough to get ben in the house just as he's getting starting to get swarmed by the zombies approaching the front porch Wouldn't you fucking know, one of the zombies happens to be a cop who still has a side piece on him. So they get in, they get the gun off the cop zombie, and here comes a fucking gunfight between Cooper and Ben. At this point, downstairs, Samantha the zombie, now full-on zombie, has already taken a bite out of mom. She is now full-on zombie. Mom comes up and...

We get a quick moment of clarity between Ben and Cooper where... uh zombie ellen comes out and no it was zombie samantha i thought ellen was first no it was samantha okay yeah because he didn't want to shoot his daughter and he was telling them not to shoot because ben was telling him just shoot her man just shoot it yeah just shoot it. But I thought that was after Ben shot Zombie Ellen. No? Zombie Ellen is still down in the basement when... Okay.

The later thing. Later on, yeah. Okay, so yeah, that's what happens. Up comes Samantha the zombie. And for a quick minute, they're having a civilized conversation. Cooper's like, man, you've got to shoot it. You've got to shoot it in the head. She's not your daughter. You've got to shoot it. That's my daughter. That's my daughter. No! And then the shootout. I think...

I think Barb shot Samantha, right? She did, yeah. Yeah, and then Cooper and Ben start shooting at each other. They do legit shoot each other. Cooper runs upstairs. Ben kind of slumps over on the stairway. Barbara's fine, and she's like, All right, let's just go. We can walk right past him. Like I've been saying this whole time. And Ben's like, I'm hurt too bad. I got a bullet in me. You go. Try to find some help, I guess. And then...

She just takes off. She gets a shotgun and the pistol, and she just goes walking. She just leaves the front door. See ya. No problem. She took the... Winchester rifle and the pistol that they got off the cop. And then... How did...

Ben had another gun too, another pistol. Yeah, a little snub-nosed job. Yeah, it was on the ankle of the cop. Oh, is that what it was? Both the pistols were on the cop? Yeah. So he goes downstairs. Ben goes downstairs into the cellar, puts the fucking thing on the door, goes... down there turns the radio on and there's the fucking gas keys clearly labeled right on the right it says right there gas pump and there's a key right there you you lame brains i wonder if cooper knew

He was down there in the basement the whole time. No. You don't think so? He's a freaking moron. You're right. You're probably right. He's a scared little moron. I looked at it. What does that mean? Gas key. You lame race! And he went and hid up in the attic. Yes. I don't know if you can. Well, I guess in older houses. Because I have an attic with the same descending stair thing.

I don't think you can pull it up after yourself. Yeah, I don't know. They probably have some safety thing now. They might. I don't know. Anyway, he gets up there and he hides. He's got a bullet in him, too. Barb just goes walking off. Just... No problemo. A couple of zombies. She just goes around them. A couple more. Goes around them. Eventually, finds like a truck with a motor running. She's like, oh, there must be somebody here. So she goes. Bunch of zombies.

re-killed zombies in the back there's Johnny unfortunately uh he's dead he's in the back still has his driving gloves on um And then a bunch of rubs pop out and they're like, what in the Jupiter's balls are you doing by yourself out here, young lady? They took a couple pop shots at her first, and she's like, wait, I'm not his army! You fucking idiots! Yeah, that's right. And these rubes are great. She's like, oh, God, yeah. And they take her back to their base camp, which is...

Looks just like a fucking... It looks like a hillbilly field party. A good time. There should be some trucks out there driving through some mud. Some Kid Rock playing. Kid Rock playing. These guys are having... There's a bunch of food. Oh, yeah. There's plenty of that. They had the zombies strung up on the tree. They were taking target practice with them. Did you see that weird fucking...

It was like a motorcycle, but it had a truck bed on it. Yeah, it was like a three-wheeler, but a truck bed. Yeah, and it was doing donuts around the fighting pit thing. That's an interesting sign. So you got the rednecks and the bikers all together just having a great old time. Oh, yeah. I wonder how many friendly fire incidents there were. Guaranteed. Guaranteed. Sorry, Cleve. I didn't mean to shoot you. Yeah, right? I didn't like Ted very much. I'm pretty sure he was a zombie. Fucking true.

Jerk. Yeah, dude, they're just having a great time. Yeah, they had food trucks and shit. Oh, yeah, yeah. Selling hot dogs and smokes. That's where I would be. Oh, looks like a great time. Next morning, she wakes up. She kind of dozed off there back at the base camp. She wakes up, and they're just...

having a fucking zombie palooza there she tells some of the rubes about the farmhouse so they go back there to check it out group group number two is already there and has cleared the place uh she gets there just as they're chainsawing the door to the uh the basement open here's zombie ben he pops out he's in this one he's a full zombie and he kind of looks at barb for a second then somebody shoots him in the head and then uh speaking of friendly fire cooper is still alive

And he comes down. He's like, oh, you came back for me. You came back. And then she shoots him in the head. Came back for you already. Throw that one on the fire. Another one for the fire, boys. That's right. And that's pretty much the end of your movie. We get a cute little montage there at the end with some upbeat pop.

poppy music going on as they're throwing the bodies on the fire and having a great time about it. So that's pretty much it. What did you guys think of Night of the Living Dead 1990? I liked it. I liked it, yeah. It's one of my favorite readings, yeah. Yeah. Definitely captured the spirit of the original. Deviated.

Really just with the ending, for the most part. In the original ending, you guys know, Ben actually survives to the end, but then gets shot in the head in a friendly fire incident also. And that's pretty much the end of that movie. At least this one, Barbara, isn't as big of a... Damsel, as she was in the original. In the original, she pretty much just sat there the whole time. And then we got to go get Johnny.

Good show. I liked it a lot. Found this one streaming on Amazon Prime. I think I had to pay four bucks for it. I actually found it. You can watch a full movie on YouTube. Oh, yeah? The whole thing. Nice. Fuck me. Somebody owes me four bucks. I could have swore I had a DVD or a Blu-ray copy around here somewhere. I probably do. I just couldn't find it. Right on, dudes. Let's take us a little break, and we'll come back with some other stuff. Sounds good.

Oh say, say, say Oh say, say, say Oh say, say, say Hey, inmates. If you like what you hear, head over to the Padded Room Facebook group and support us through the patron link with a small monthly donation. Check out the T-Villain link at paddedroom.podbean.com and grab some t-shirts. Thanks for listening and enjoy the rest of the show. And we are back, gentlemen. Yeah. Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. Well, I tell you what, that was the beginning of Tom.

Savini month here in the padded room. Next week, we're going straight to Death Dream, which is one of the first movies he worked on as a paying gig as part of the effects team. You may find it also as Dead of Night, but the working title is Death Dream. Very excited for that. That's a very silly movie. I think we're going to have a lot to talk about next week. Nice. In the meantime, though, I think it's Pterodome time, gents. Yeah, buddy. No tears, please. It's a waste of good suffering.

hurt you. You didn't let me finish my sentence. I said, I'm not gonna hurt you. I'm just gonna bash your brains in. I'm gonna bash them right the fuck in. I'll kill you all. I'll try this crazy and I'll kill you. I'll be crazy. I'll be the worst dream come true. Six-year-old child, Lucas. Blind, pale, emotional, face. The blackest eyes. The devil's eyes.

Welcome to the Terradome. First, last week's winner. We were in, or actually three weeks ago's winner. We were in the Inferno Conference round 13. It was Michael Myers versus the Creeper. Michael found Lori's vehicle, but his cousin was nowhere to be seen. The vehicle itself was badly damaged and lying on its side. He was about to continue his pursuit when he noticed the sounds coming from underneath it.

Pin Below was an unusual creature struggling for freedom. Better to dispatch it and get back to his cousin. With a vote of 4-2, Michael Myers advances over the Creeper. And I am out of this year's tournament, you motherfuckers. You motherfuckers. The creeper's out of the creeper. The creeper's out of the creeper. Exactly. The creeper's out with the creeper's death. God damn it. Fine. I'll win one of these goddamn things eventually.

When I start doctoring the votes. There you go. That's right. Yeah, there's really nobody that holds you accountable, is there? No, not really. No, okay. No, no, they do because they fucking talk to each other. I didn't vote for the creeper. Did you vote? Who the fuck voted for the creeper? Nobody voted for the creeper.

Oh, shit. I don't recruit votes anymore. Yeah. Ever since the crack house man fiasco in 2012. Yeah. Motherfucker. How about this week's matchup? We are in the Inferno Conference round 14, as usually. inmates bear with me i am not much of a writer and i'm a little phlegmy in the war-torn wilds of eastern europe reputation is everything Only the most brutal and barbaric are shown respect, and the rest are treated as little more than prey.

Most violent among the warriors of his era, Vlad held the most fearful reputation of all. Also known as the Impaler, he ruled the Kingdom of Wallachia, modern-day Romania, with an iron fist. It is fierce warriors such as Vlad that bring the most prestige to the Junta hunting class. A hunter would travel light years and even cross dimensions to test its skill against a warrior of Vlad's capabilities.

Finally, as the summer heat sets into the Balkans, the hunter's drop pod sets down deep in the Carpathian foothills. The hunt for Dracula has begun. We have Dracula versus the Predator, gentlemen. How say you? Good. This is a fucking tough one. This is a movie I would definitely watch. Oh, hell yeah. Oh, man. Marvel's doing all these Predator vs. comics right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Predator vs. Wolverine and they're fucking badass.

This would be a badass movie. I think I have to go with Dracula on this. I don't think a predator would know how to deal with a vampire. No heat signature, number one. Number two, shape-shifting. Swarms of bats and rodents. Mist. Well, it depends on the lore, right? I'm sure it can make one of his net firing things out of silver. Then he's fucked. Maybe. And he traps him right in the silver. Turns into mist. Well, it depends on what Dracula lore you're after, you know? I know.

I like to think of the Luke Evans Dracula Untold for this scenario, like he kicked the shit out of Bela Lugosi. Yeah. Oh, yeah. He would look good getting his ass kicked. It wouldn't be that big of a fight. No. But even Luke Evans, because he was in that room of silver, the silver was fucking with him. That's true. So if the Predator could make a weaponry out of silver, even...

the firing spikes out of his gauntlet, you know? Yeah, that thing, sure. Silver stakes right there. Sure. I'm still going with Dracula. All right. What do you think, Dustin? I don't know. I was talking myself into the Predator, but I... I think you were, which is fine. I'm taking Predator. Okay. Buddy? I'm going to have to go with Dracula on this one only for the sole purpose that I don't know if Alien would be or Predator would be smart enough to figure that out at first.

Buddy, they have interstellar travel. I'm thinking they could figure out how to kill a vampire. Not only that, but they had it like... Because they'll be very confused right off the bat. They had it back in like the early 1800s. Yeah, you're probably right. He probably would view him as...

a normal human being, but he has no heat signature. So that's kind of, and he's already dead. I don't know. And that's the thing is he can't see it. So that is another thing. No heat signature. Once it attacks it, then it's going to try to figure out a way. Right. But how does he see him? Because. How many times have we seen Arnold cover himself in mud? Predator can't even see him. That's true. Because their naked eye, their inherent vision is heat vision. Yes.

They can't see shit that's in color. The combat visor. So now I'm kind of talking myself into the Dracula. Yeah, that's why I'm like, eh. I'll stick with Predator. Stick with Predator. I'll stick with Dracula. Me too. That's your TerraDome matchup for the weekend, mates. It's Dracula versus the Predator.

Let us know by next week if you can. Excuse me. Mental Health Hotline is area code 775-387-0275. Or just go to paddedroompodcast.com and you will find an email link. You can email us that way or just click the Teradome link. Boom, click on which guy you think is going to win, and that'll get to us also. In the meantime, while you're contemplating that very difficult matchup,

We have a little segment called what are you looking at to get to, which may get a little long because it's been three weeks, gentlemen, or in Buddy's case, two and a half months. I got a lot for you. Oh, here we go. What are you looking at? I watched the crow. Wicked prayer.

From 2005. Why would you do that? Why would I do that? You know, I was thinking you were going to say the newest one, and then he said that one. I'm like, oh, well, that's not what I was going to say. Yeah, no. Why? See, people... I don't understand that. I mean, it's a bad movie. Anybody who's seen it knows it's a bad movie. It's got fucking Tara Reid and Tito Ortiz in it. Not to disparage Tara Reid or Tito Ortiz, but let's be honest, they are not the upper echelon of talented actors.

How are you going to shit all over Bill Skarsgård Crow when we have an Edward Furlong Crow? You understand what I'm saying? People are taking fat dumps all over the new Crow movie. I haven't seen it yet. Oh, yeah, it's better than the Crow Wicked Player. Oh, I bet it is. I promise you that. No, I think the Crow would – the new one was –

barely maybe break the top 10 for me this year. Wow. I liked it. I liked it too. Yeah. I would probably. There are some parts that I wish it would change a little bit, but I don't want to talk about it more. I mean, it's. But he hasn't seen anybody. I just wish we could have got to the crow part. That's my point. Instead of all the... It's a whole thing. It's bad.

It's big fat Edward Furlong and he's the crow. He does his makeup with a sharpie. There's like a white... Have you guys seen the crow, Wicked Prayer? Oh yeah, I have not. There's like a whole white trash element to it. Like he's living in a trailer. It's... Not good. I'll tell you that. Black Roses from 1988. You guys seen this one? This may be the premier heavy metal horror movie. Really? Might have to watch this one. It's from 1988, so it's got all the black leather and cotton.

pieces and spikes yeah spikes and you know of course this was during the satanic panic so there's subliminal messages in the music that are turning the kids into these skull face things it's great Okay. I have to check it out. The Body Tree from 2017. To be original. Very bland. Body Hopper Demon.

Your buddy gets possessed, but you can't kill him because if you kill him, then the demon is going to hop into you. So you end up having to bury one of your friends alive to keep the demon. It's a whole thing. Disquiet from 2023. Jonathan Reese Myers wakes up in an abandoned hospital with some other people. There is a very nice set of breasts in this movie. The rest of it is kind of predictable. Whenever somebody, quote unquote, wakes up in an abandoned hospital...

You can kind of do the math on what's really going on. Yeah. And that's exactly what's going on. And then rounding out my Christmas watch list, Black Christmas, 1974. Nice. Well, at least you watched the good one. I did. And by comparison, the... 2006 remake, not that bad compared to the 2019 version. Oh, yeah, that's trash. Yeah, that's complete garbage. I get a little chuckle out of those obscene phone calls, though.

For some reason, those used to scare the crap out of me. That was a big kind of a trope back in the 80s. It was. You know, the babysitter. The call's coming from inside the house. Yeah. The heavy breathing and 976 evil. Yeah. You had the – like when a stranger calls where it's like, have you checked the children? And then you had Black Christmas –

Oh, I'm going to put my big cock right in your fucking face hole. You watch it now and you're like... Get out of here. Get out of here. You're cute. Get out of here. I met your boyfriend. Dave's calling again. That's all I'm looking at, buddy. What do you got? All right. Dancing for the cult, the TikTok cult. I don't know if you've seen anything. It's basically like all these high popular TikTok people that get involved in some like weird...

cult where all of a sudden now the parents can't see them and all this brainwashing, all this type of weird shit. The Resemblance, it's a short story. Netflix has a bunch of short stories out there, so if you ever get a chance to watch them, they're pretty good. 12, 15 minutes. Oh, cool. Black Mirror, season four, season five. The Blue Drum is another short. Mama Retreat is another short. The movie Afraid, AI. Okay, yeah, sure.

Interview with the Vampire Series. What do you think of that? Very gay. I figured it out. Very hard gay. Well, if you re-watch the Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise one... It dips its nose in the gayness. Yeah, but nothing like this series. But it was a great series. I mean, it's just like, come on, really? Stop making out. I'm trying to watch this show. This is a good show. Yeah.

So you said that was the interview. I'm just going to write that down. Yeah, there's a lot of that. Subservience. Okay, subservience. Yeah. Mystery of the 13th Guest. It's an old one. That's like...

Not quite black and white, but it's pretty old. Okay. It was a pretty good classic movie. Nice. Beef, season one. I don't know if you've seen... You went full gay, honest, didn't you? No. That one actually isn't gay. Uh-huh. Sure, pal. It starts off with the Chinese... guy from walking dead uh he's in it um and then this other oriental gal and they start off basically

Two people are honking at each other. It's road rage right off the bat. And then they all have their married lives. And then they get this kick out of it. Like, ooh, they're smiling at each other while they're doing shit to each other. Like, yeah, I got you. And so it just... Just goes spiked high after that. You like the intensity on it. Sounds interesting. Yeah, it was pretty good.

Yeah, really enjoyed that. There's actually another season of that coming out, but it's going to be entirely different. Oh, it's a series. Yeah, it's a series. Oh, okay. I thought it was a movie. Yeah, beef series. No, but next season is entirely different cast, entirely different thing, but yeah, it's pretty good. Three Body Problem. That was a really good one. Season one of that one. All right. From...

I'm not sure if you're familiar with that one. I've heard really good things about it. Dude, you've got to watch this. I saw all three seasons. Yeah? Yeah, it was awesome. My daughter actually turned on that one to me, so I was like, oh, yeah, I've got to check this out.

Watched that one. And I got towards the middle of the second season. I'm like, these motherfuckers are going to do this shit again. Lost. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. You watch eight seasons of fucking Lost. You don't know what the fuck's going on. They never explain anything. After the season finale of From, I'm like. See?

The motherfuckers. They're doing it again. Yeah. They're just going to string you along, string you along. It's the same director. It is. And he's friends with the guy that's in it. I know. Yeah. So I started getting a little pissy. Yeah, yeah. I stopped about halfway through season three. I told the wife. I said...

You tell me if something fucking happens and I'll watch the rest of it because I'm just getting pissy right now. They're fucking me again. Yeah. The lost guys are fucking me again. Yeah. Now I'm wasting no time. Don't do it. It is so good. No, it's good though. Chapel weight. Season one. So that was the last one I got to check out. What is Chapelweight? It's like this... What's the guy with the big nose? Adrian Brody. He's in it. And it's a vampire type show. He gets...

this land that his relatives left him. And apparently it's a whole drama thing of like trying to find this evil book and he gets involved in it with these other vampires. And of course he's got, you know, he's bringing his family out there minus his wife. Cause his wife passed.

way but his three daughters and it's just this big whole spiel of like you know trying to protect themselves and they have a bad rap because everybody in the town is like dude your family fucked all of us and brought this disease and shit like that he's like dude it's not me You know, quit blaming me for this. I'm just here because I inherited this nice big-ass castle home thing, and I'm going to start a mill and, you know, get ships going and stuff like that.

It veers off of that because, you know, the whole other crap with the book and all that stuff. Okay. But it's pretty good. Sounds interesting. Sure. Yeah. Right on. Dusty? All right. So you'd think that after being off work for 12 days, I'd have a long list. But, you know, I have a...

short list of horror stuff. And then, you know, I did some shit for the wife and whatnot. Of course. You've got to be a good husband. And then we watched other stuff with the family. So we've been watching the new Dexter series, so we're all caught up on that. It's actually, I'm liking it. Yeah. I'm liking it better than the final season of Dexter. I don't know if you ever got into like, you know.

But it's good. It basically shows when he first started killing and his first kill and then how he gets better at it and all that kind of stuff. So it's actually a good show. It's on my watch list right now. Yeah, it's good. Then the kid and I watched the Blade Trilogy. Oh, nice. So I was trying to think. I was like, what can we watch? And I was like, have you ever seen this? And she's like, no. And I was like.

This is badass. We're going to watch this. Yeah, he got some, like, martial arts, like, some big martial arts rewards for it. Oh, yeah. It was phenomenal back in the 90s, you know? Oh, yeah. And because she... She asked who he was when we watched Deadpool Wolverine. Yeah.

Spoiler, sorry if anybody hasn't seen it. But he makes an appearance. He does. But she's like, who's that guy? He's like, that's Blade. You don't know who that guy is? They're like, okay, we're fucking watching it. So we burned through the whole three movies and she liked it. So I'm... I'm a proud father. As you should be. Then the wife and I watched Terrifier 3. Okay. Really enjoyed it. Nice.

Very entertaining. It's just like the other two. I mean, it's not much of a story-ish, if you will. They tried to flesh it out more. And, you know, you find out that he, in the other one that he, I don't know what it. I don't know how much of it is in the third one compared to the second one. So in terms of he's kind of a demon, right? Okay. They flesh that out a little bit more in this one.

But it was good. Yeah, I liked it. Very cool. And then we went to the theater and saw Nosferatu. Oh, yeah. That was one I forgot to put on my list. Nosferatu. What do you think of that? Loved it. Yeah? Bye. I don't think it was for me. Okay. Alan saw it. He said it was a very horny movie. Yeah. I don't know. It was just... I don't know. Maybe I'm not into the period stuff, the period pieces. But I did. I really like Bram Stoker's Dracula. Sure. It's just... It felt...

I was checking my watch. I don't know. It just was... It seemed very long. And the ending, I'm not going to say anything about it, but I was just like, what the fuck? Come on. That was the only part I didn't really care for was the ending. Yeah. But I really enjoyed it. Okay. Yeah. I didn't like... I like the look of Orlok. Yeah. I don't know. I don't want to say much about it, but it's new. Okay. We'll check it out. I'm eventually going to get to it.

One of these days, somehow. Johnny Depp's daughter. Yes. Lily Rose Depp. She was pretty good. I just felt at some point she was a little bit overdoing it kind of thing. Going a little Jack Sparrow. Oh, boy. Yeah. Right on, inmates. Well, that's what we're looking at. I think it's time for some immersion therapy then. Immersion therapy. In a violent nature, fellas. Badass. Loved it. Can't get enough of that one, dude.

The only... Well, first off, part two is already in the works. Nice. So that's coming at us very soon. Oh, wow. Okay. No confirmation of what it's going to entail. I would hope that they... At least keep it in the same trajectory. You know what I'm saying? Maybe not that guy, because that guy looked kind of silly. I'm sorry. That mask was kind of... Well, yeah, I mean... Was that a diver's mask, I think? Something like that. Yeah. It was... No, it was...

Wasn't it like a gas mask? Wasn't it a coal town? I saw it a while ago. It was a coal town, wasn't it? Or no, it was a fire mask. That's what it was. It was a firefighter's mask. But it's like... kind of gave him like a weird cone head. Yeah. The whole time I'm watching, I'm thinking, how does he actually see out of that fucking thing?

That's why you walk so slow. Yeah. Where am I? What am I? Is that a tree? I'm going to kill this guy, whoever this guy is. You couldn't help but feel bad for him and at the same time get a little chuckle because... Another wrong necklace.

come on man you just need the one necklace and then you can go back in the ground and you keep finding everybody else's fucking necklace except the one you're looking for and of course racking up the kills very ingenious very original keeping with the slasher the entire film oh I loved it yeah so original yeah love that felt like you're watching

uh, somebody played dead by daylight, you know, just following the killer. Yeah, totally. Just fucking ripping through people. Yep. Felt bad for that park ranger, man. Whatever that contraption was that he got put in. Yeah. Ugh. That's bad. Treat, uh, logs. Splitter. That's what it was, yeah. Starts off with his hand. Boom! But for me, the cool kill was right there at the lake. Oh, my gosh. That was one of my favorites. Like, yeah! You know what I love about that part, too, is they...

Kept the shot on the lake. Like you knew because he's obviously walking dead. he's walking under the water to get to her, right? So they just kept the shot on the lake the whole time. And you're like, oh, it's kind of going a little too long. But I just liked it. It was a cool...

Cinematographic choice, you know, just to keep it on the lake. You know he's down there, making his way over, and then the head breaks out. Shoulder breaks, and then, oh, there he is, the fucking asshole. Right on. Yeah, good show, dude. Hell yeah. Definitely top five of 2024 for me.

uh buddy what do you got for us this week dude all right this week let's check out 2022's smile this is about after witnessing a bizarre traumatic incident involving a patient a psychiatrist becomes increasingly convinced that she is being threatened by an Uncanny Entity. And you'll find this gem on Paramount and Hulu. Righteous. Check that shit out, inmates. We'll do the same in Compare Notes next week. But now it is time for you...

I keep trying to say educate me. But that's not the name of the thing anymore, buddy. Nope. I thought you were going to start the New Year's out on the right foot, but obviously you didn't. Nope. Not a chance. Left foot. Not a fucking chance. I guess it's time for a round of Hoosier. daddy? Who's your daddy? Who is Daddy? First, my clues from last week, gentlemen.

I am a struggling medical student, and I might be a bit of a psychopath because I am struggling with the empathetic nature of being a doctor and breaking bad news and things like that. I just don't give a shit is the problem. and I can't really pay my tuition anymore, so I'm going to have to find a new career, possibly in stripping, because I am a very attractive young lady. But going to the strip club actually leads me onto a side quest.

in which I pick up a career in body modifications, which is good because I can learn how to use that new trade to get back at the med school assholes that raped me at the upscale party. I am, of course, American Mary, fellas. You guys seen that one? Oh, yeah. Oh, love it. Good show, right? Catherine Isabel and that little black apron of hers. Good stuff. She is a bit of all right. And that is a good, that's Saska Sisters, dude. Yeah. That's good stuff right there. They haven't done much lately.

No, they were on that stupid sci-fi game show. Remember that? Where they ran the elevator or whatever. That was the last I heard from them. No, they did something else. I forget what it was. It wasn't that great though. Who might I be this week, you ask? Well, I am a teenage gang leader. I think. I don't know if it's a gang or not, but I'm a hot chick, and I got a bunch of other hot chicks, and we like to...

to hang out and act like we're a lot tougher than we actually are. And everything is well and good until my deaf sister gets raped by a bunch of toughos, football players, and ne'er-do-wells. Well, I'm not going to stand for that, so... I'm going to hop on my motorcycle and tease up my 1986 hair and go kick some ass, bros. Put these toughos right back in their place. Who might I be, you ask? Tune in next week and I will drop some knowledge on you, inmates.

In the meantime, I think that's about going to do it for us, ladies and gentlemen. As usual, thank you very much for joining us. Join us next week for Death Dream here in Tom Savini Month. Like, comment, subscribe if you have time. That helps our visibility quite a bit, and we really appreciate it.

Other than that, I think that's about all we got on the week. You guys got anything else? Nope. It's good to have a full house in here. It is. I'm just glad to not be talking to myself anymore. You tend to feel a little crazy after a while. Schizophrenics. Teenage rape victims and their older sisters that get revenge for them. Vampires and the sexual ambiguity that comes with, I guess, being a vampire. Or at least a Dan Rice vampire.

Zombies, of course. Farmhouses and chicks that we knew and loved that we thought were pushovers but are now bored again hard and just... casually walking past those zombies, and the padded room, I'm afraid, visiting hours are over. Bye, and have a great week. Love.
