Horror Movie Madness: From Slashers to Supernatural
Fear takes center stage as we launch our five-part Halloween special with a deep dive into the world of horror cinema! From childhood terrors to modern-day frights, this episode uncovers the movies that have shaped our relationship with fear.
Remember "Shocktober" on PIX? We travel back to those spine-tingling promotional segments that had us all talking the next day at school, especially that infamous slime monster that made us think twice about swimming in lakes. Our slasher discussion pits Jason Voorhees against Michael Myers, with Friday the 13th and Halloween competing for the crown of ultimate slasher film, while Silent Night, Deadly Night gets an unexpected shoutout as a hidden gem.
The conversation shifts to psychological horror, where The Shining reigns supreme with its disorienting cinematography and pure dread. Kubrick's masterful manipulation of viewers' psyches remains unmatched decades later. We explore how found footage revolutionized horror with Blair Witch Project's groundbreaking marketing and the evolution of zombie films from Night of the Living Dead to Return of the Living Dead, where intelligent zombies eat brains "to make the pain of being dead go away."
Video game horror gets its moment too, with Resident Evil and Doom bridging the gap between interactive and cinematic scares. We close by celebrating Halloween's cultural resurgence, driven partly by retailers like Spirit Halloween, which has transformed the holiday into a season-long celebration.
What horror movie still haunts your dreams? Listen to our spirited debate and join us next week for the second installment in our Halloween series. The nightmare is just beginning!

Speaker 2:you know it's up there as you see. Yes, on the sign on the wall right there. Yeah. Everybody knows you said it like five times, could be just digging how this thing looks. It looks fine, it's cool. We can't put the lights any darker, though.
Speaker 3:Now you know, as we're talking today, five Halloween episode series. So we got five Wednesdays in October and it is going to be five episodes of.
Speaker 2:Halloween, yes. So so these episodes starting with Horror movies, horror flicks.
Speaker 3:Horror flicks, horror movies and the first thing I think of now, anybody who grew up in the New York Metro area, new York City Metro area, had PIX Right.
Speaker 3:Now they had a thing that they used to do called Shocktober Right and they would do these like crazy videos for like promotional ads for it, and it would be like crazy. And I remember like being a kid we grew up in like the 90s right you know I was in the 90s in like middle school Right and all those. We would the next day line it up because it would be all week long.
Speaker 2:Yeah, every night was another horror movie.
Speaker 3:And we would all be talking.
Speaker 2:Remember like Freak Show would came on and we're all like Freak Show was a good one we would know like that famous one where that with the like.
Speaker 3:I used to be afraid to swim in a frigging lake watching it.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, that big slime shit. Do you remember the freak show when they had the floating? It was like a floating slime. Yeah.
Speaker 3:It looked like the oil slime shit yeah that was way back so for some of you guys it's a little bit way back was like mini stories and they had this one. If this is anybody, just tell anybody who hasn't seen it. So I gotta remember to talk to both. Yeah, so what it was is there was a different stories. Anyway, one of the stories was they went to this.
Speaker 3:There was like people they had this like you know they, they had like like a trans am and I'm playing the music and like, oh, check out this lake, let's go swimming and they go swimming and there's like a floating dock and there's just like this slime and it's just like starts like eating the people, like the movie the Blob, but like on water, yeah it was sick oh nice.
Speaker 1:And it's funny.
Speaker 2:I vaguely remember that and like at the end like the to swim and he gets to the like to the edge of the water and it just turns into a wave and sucks him in anyway and then at the end there's like a sign and it says no swimming so it makes you think, what no swimming signs really mean yeah, exactly, don't go in the water. It's real simple, like don't do that shit yeah, pay attention. Is that one of your favorites, though, like your, your favorite no, I was just talking about that.
Speaker 1:I went on a rant because I was talking about Shocktober me growing up a little older than you guys, but yeah, they used to have Thriller, thriller, thriller, thriller, thriller and the hand would come up and grab the letter. Different time frames but the hand would have six fingers. Yeah, maybe even more possibly.
Speaker 3:Yeah, maybe even more possibly.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because it was like a and it was so creepy and then for that time and I was little and that was on TV and it was that late at night. Yep, that was scary shit.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you know what I mean. Yeah, yeah, you had some funny shit on there, my horror stuff started going, you know.
Speaker 1:I was like God I had to be. That's early 70s. Yes, it is was cool back then it's you know now imagine fixing that up a little bit and starting that over and having a like getting what was it?
Speaker 3:I think uh, peel started the twilight zones again. Twilight zones, yeah, so they're out there. So let's go, let's pick our top, our movies top. Let's pick a category right slashers. What's your favorite all-time slasher?
Speaker 2:Okay so.
Speaker 3:And we can agree. Yeah, you know, we don't have to be different.
Speaker 1:Right, we don't have to be different. Are they saying that? No?
Speaker 2:I'm asking, if anybody did you created a. Oh, my daughter. Yeah, yeah, that was an old one. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:Well, I'll tell you.
Speaker 3:Nobody. No, my favorite slasher is the oh my goodness, the one with Santa Claus. Oh, silent Night, deadly Night. Yeah, oh, I like that one.
Speaker 2:That was a good slasher for me. I like that one. That was one of my favorites. That was one of my favorites. What's yours? I was thinking.
Speaker 3:I'm going to say you know it's changed over the years. Used to be Halloween, okay, but now I'm going to have to say Friday the 13th. Really, yeah, it changed. I'm going to say Friday.
Speaker 2:He's like the ultimate slasher the way he stalks people Right Comes up from behind you puts your knife right through your neck and he's supernatural too, so you can't kill him, your face doesn't change at all, you just see the blade.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:I mean they're all supernatural Like Michael Myers is supernatural, but he's not like Jason's supernatural.
Speaker 1:Right, but they're still good, though, both of them.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, they have their own thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:But I would agree with you. I remember the first time I saw Friday the 13th and that ending was the. Was that the one?
Speaker 3:when he jumps out of the water yes, at the end and scares the yeah, because he came up without the mask yeah, yeah, and she wakes up screaming she's dreaming, yeah, yeah, alright, so that was a good one, so you got so you picked.
Speaker 2:I'm trying to think of what Santa Claus and the Slayer would be for me, though.
Speaker 3:Is it also?
Speaker 2:Or it could be.
Speaker 1:I'd have to think. You know I saw Psycho, right. Oh, that's a good one though. Psycho was a good movie for its time, and it was the first real slasher yeah, yeah, no, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, he was a slasher you just thought he was his mom Now, if you watch the movie now you're like man this movie's disturbing, so I would have to say that's one of them. And then, of course, halloween for me.
Speaker 2:Right, okay.
Speaker 1:But I do like Friday the 13th too, because he always has the axe.
Speaker 3:Right. So out of the three, would you say what's your top pick? Got to pick one Got to pick one.
Speaker 2:There knows to be one.
Speaker 1:Yeah, oh that. Yeah, that's Highlander, but we're at a different Friday, the 13th.
Speaker 2:Friday, the 13th okay so Friday the 13th it's Highlander, alright, so okay alright, so now okay, what about psychological horror? Clockwork Orange. Oh, that's a good one.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'm gonna say that's pretty shining oh yeah, shining that is like the most freak here's, johnny I.
Speaker 2:That is like the most.
Speaker 3:I don't think that you can get more psychological horror, because the way that movie, because you know Kubrick, it's funny. Because Clockwork Arts also, yes, yes. Kubrick he would use psychology in movies to mess with you. There is a scene when the kid is on the tricycle and he's going through, right? Yeah, it's meant to disorient you.
Speaker 2:Right, yeah.
Speaker 3:I don't know if they had like a fake wall set up, but he goes in like a circle and he's not in the same place.
Speaker 2:Right, yes.
Speaker 3:Like you're like disoriented.
Speaker 1:Which movie is this Shining? Oh yeah, shining was a. That was a fucked up movie.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, with the walls coming out of the, the blood coming out of the elevator, we were all alone just having a conversation with somebody.
Speaker 1:Dude listen.
Speaker 3:I'd sell my soul for a drink and you think about it. Yeah, misery.
Speaker 2:Misery. You know, misery, misery misery.
Speaker 3:Okay, I'll go along with that.
Speaker 2:That's a good psychological one you know but I don't know, is it psychological? I thought it was more suspense?
Speaker 1:no, it was. She messed with his head the whole time. I mean she broke his ankles, yeah, but she loved him because she was the writer of the book, right? And then he wound up changing the book. He made the ending where she dies and she wakes up in the middle of the night and she, yeah, just yeah, destroys him and then she takes off and then comes back, and then she hobbles him right, she takes a log and puts it between his ankles misery, misery.
Speaker 3:I never saw the full thing. She takes a sledgehammer alright. I've seen pieces of it, just catching it when it was on. The Buddha is in between your ankles.
Speaker 1:She takes a sledge. She says this is going to hurt me more than it's going to hurt you yeah. And she blasts his ankles.
Speaker 2:Yes, right, that was right after he tried to get away, because he had tried to get away.
Speaker 1:Let me tell you, yeah.
Speaker 2:Didn't work. He didn't run. Yeah, he wasn't running anywhere more?
Speaker 1:I can think of that right now. They're not popping up, yeah.
Speaker 3:Okay, that's a good one though. What would be the next Silence of the Lambs?
Speaker 2:Oh, you know what I?
Speaker 3:think. I think, it's going to be under Thriller.
Speaker 1:That's psychological. You think so Because the movie itself is psychological. Right, you got this guy who is a genius but he likes to eat people. Yeah, you know, just a little flaw.
Speaker 3:Yes, that movie kind of fell under a lot of genres because it was also like a mystery movie, because it had a bunch of different things. It was a bad guy. It was a hot movie.
Speaker 1:It had a little bit of horror in it you know, remember it had the head in the jar. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, when he found him in the car where she pumps up. She opens up the garage door, she goes underneath Right, she gives the guy the card, she goes. Here's a number in case you need to, if I don't come out of here or something. Yeah, here's a number to call.
Speaker 2:Is that the same one? Where that's the very first one Claudice was sitting at? The table and he had to do no, no no. That's the the third one.
Speaker 3:This really isn't a genre.
Speaker 1:Okay, what's your? Favorite, not scary horror movie Not scary, so I'll give an example Like what genre my example is going to be Killer Clowns from Outer Space.
Speaker 3:Okay Right, I love that movie. But you know you think of movies like Gremlins, like movies that are like not really scary.
Speaker 2:So which one is yours?
Speaker 3:Killer Clowns.
Speaker 2:Killer Clowns. Which one is good? I'm going to say Freddy vs Jason. Oh see, that's not as scary. I would say more than that.
Speaker 3:Yeah because I wouldn't even consider that part of the Friday the 13th. Yeah right, it was just a fun time.
Speaker 1:I would say most of the animated stuff like from you know what's his name. There's all the claymation type things you know for the spooky you know itself. I don't know what you're talking about. Which movie? Nightmare Before Christmas.
Speaker 2:Oh, oh, oh, those kind of things.
Speaker 3:Yeah, oh not scary horror, Not scary for me. Cool is how they're watched. That's definitely Halloween themed.
Speaker 1:I would say yeah, definitely. Or like horror themed, or like macabre, I guess you would call it Like the Addams Family. Isn't that Jim Henson? What's his name? Who does he does Wednesday.
Speaker 2:Yeah, right Tim.
Speaker 1:Burton yeah Tim. Burton, yeah, yeah he's really big into all that. You know gothic, real gothy like.

Speaker 2:your favorite horror flick as a whole.
Speaker 1:Well, I like the way he's doing the genre thing, so we can get to that at the end, right?
Speaker 2:Okay, so go ahead, all right. All right, and we can save it for the list Slasher, what about?
Speaker 3:okay? So what's your favorite classic, and I mean classic.
Speaker 2:I mean still black and white.
Speaker 3:Ooh, like old, like I'm talking. When I mean classic, I mean before, like the 60s. Or like 60s and back.
Speaker 2:That Dracula, the Nosferatu, oh, like Frankenstein and the mummy.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:Nosferatu Yep. All right the original, not the one that just came out recently. No, you know what?
Speaker 1:The original, but the new one. Let me tell you, the new one was pretty good. It was really good. The new one was they did a fantastic job on that.
Speaker 3:I'm going to say also, nosferatu was my favorite, yep, but second most, I would say, would be I Like Frankenstein.
Speaker 2:Frankenstein.
Speaker 1:Abacus Sola meets Frankenstein.
Speaker 3:Abacus Sola meets Frankenstein. The werewolf that falls under not not not not.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I love Abacus Sola. I forgot about those. That is yo, you fucked me up with that.

Speaker 2:did the hills have eyes? Oh yeah, that's an old one right mean it's still as it would be considered, the modern.
Speaker 3:I mean modern, I mean like that, Like I would say anything like in the last two decades, like two and a half, like three, like I would say I'm trying to like you got like the Ring, you got like what's the one, the?
Speaker 1:Ring got like. What's the one with the? Um the conjuring those are all like newer. These are like uh, there's a new one of that that's coming out, or it is out already.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and you got a big girl, you gotta help me out with that one you remember that other one joke.
Speaker 1:That's some crazy. Yeah the new ones.
Speaker 2:It was the conjuring. And uh, there was a new amityville horror. Another one, not of amityville horror, I'm sorry, not amityville horror. The other one shits kekabab A man, oh, fungu. I can't remember the name of the other one now. It was another haunted house, but it was the ones with the husband and wife. It was part of the conjuring that whole.
Speaker 3:Thing.
Speaker 2:Right the husband and wife that they had gone in.
Speaker 1:There's a last one now that's happened. Yeah, it's mostly one that they ran into once before.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and it's come back. Yeah, and now Annabelle.
Speaker 3:Annabelle's a crazy one, yeah, but like modern horror, I would say my favorite modern horror would be the Scream movie, okay, but the thing is I would say they fall under Thriller, but because? Or more of a whodunit movie. It's kind of a little bit too, because you're always, it's always a mystery, who's ghost face Every movie who's ghost face.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I think, yeah, alien, aliens, oh.
Speaker 2:Aliens, that's the new horror.
Speaker 1:That's a monster.
Speaker 3:I was going to go next with sci-fi horror.
Speaker 2:Okay, so let's go into it.
Speaker 3:What's your favorite sci-fi?
Speaker 2:horror, sci-fi, horror. So you said so. Aliens is your favorite sci-fi.
Speaker 1:I would definitely think that one is for sure Alien, even you know most of them.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's the other one with? What's his name?
Speaker 2:I like Predator, I like Predator.
Speaker 3:I no, that might be a sci-fi thriller, but thriller, horror movies kind of are like very like they run like parallel. You know what I mean, right? So I don't know Thriller.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you went all the way out there. There's a lot of sci-. There's been a lot of different ones. Well, you know what do you call it? Twilight Zone was always that way. You know what I mean they had some what other stuff?
Speaker 2:Robocop, that's a sci-fi yeah, but it's not a horror flick or a suspense. I think I took it more as an action flick. Yeah, that's more of an action flick for sure, but sci-fi for sure no doubt about it. Yeah, no, freddy was a Jason in space. Where's the guy Morpheus? Where's this?
Speaker 1:guy who played Morpheus Shitskabob, what's his name again.
Speaker 2:Come on Lawrence Fitzpatrick.
Speaker 1:Thank you. He did a horror movie and I can't remember the name of it on a ship where it goes back.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, ghost Ship, was it Ghost?
Speaker 1:Ship right yeah.
Speaker 2:Is that what it was? I think so that they went on there, the whole proved them and they went to go the name of the ship.
Speaker 3:I know what movie you're talking about event horizon. Yes, I think that's the one that movie wasn't in ghost ship.
Speaker 2:That movie was event horizon scary.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was super scary because you didn't know, like if they thought they got through it and then something weird happened. I was like just it was pure evil. Whatever this thing was was just simply pure evil that they ran into.
Speaker 3:So that was pretty scary stuff so what other other genres are there? I don't, I can't think of any off the top of my head.
Speaker 2:Well, I'm laughing because none of us said the, the, the, the the exorcist, the exorcist, the one that really got it going.
Speaker 3:When you think about it. Yes, yes, yes, yeah.
Speaker 1:Wrong I.
Speaker 2:I was so young to see that I was so young to see that I wish they didn't delete this scene, but it sort of laid on.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I wish they didn't delete this scene with her going down the stairs, dude, that would have been insane. That would have gotten. People would have been scared.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they would have.
Speaker 1:Back then people would have people would have been freaking out yeah they would have shit, their pants they would have peed bro.
Speaker 3:That's another one that we forgot to mention, like for modern horror movies. Okay, so let's wait one more. Which is your favorite gory movie? So I would definitely say is I can't think of the name. Art the Clown, what's it? Art the Clown, Art the Clown, what's his name?
Speaker 2:I don't know that one. It's not Fingering the Bell.
Speaker 1:For what Art the Clown oh?

Speaker 3:oh my god, this is bad. Anybody you gonna help us out?
Speaker 2:Art the Clown Supernatural Killer. Clown Terrifier, Terrifier.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yes, all right, yeah, so yeah. Terrifier, I would say, is my. That movie is the goriest movie I've ever seen. I can't even say on our podcast how bad it was.
Speaker 1:I can't say what I thought it could, but it would be horrible. No, I'm not saying. That's really bad, yeah, it's extreme.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you know what I'm talking about Psychological Saw Saw yes, Saw is psychological absolutely. That's right. Saw is a good psychological one.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's true, that's another one, yeah, so okay. So let's pick our favorite of all time horror.
Speaker 2:My favorite of all time, as crazy as it sounds, is the first Freddy.
Speaker 3:The first Freddy.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I was just digging the first.
Speaker 3:Freddy, I got a really unique one, and I don't know why I never got it on DVD either, only because it used to creep me out when I was a kid, because I used to air it on HBO all the time is the Gate.
Speaker 2:Ooh, that's a throwback one.
Speaker 3:It was like my first real horror movie as a kid and it wasn't because I was no, that was Freddy. Stephen Dorff was in it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, stephen Dorff was in that one. He was the kid in that movie.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and that was where there's like a hole in the ground and I forget how it opens.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't know how it opens.
Speaker 3:They don't use animation for the demons and they were so creepy. But one of the creepiest scenes is I think the parents were away on vacation or something like that, like that, and like they knock on the door, but it's really the demons in disguise and like it picks them up, goes yeah and he just squeezes the dad's face and just his white juice comes out yeah so creepy.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that was like one of the most creepiest scenes I and I saw them. That was like again of the most creepiest scenes and I saw that. That was like, again, my parents didn't let. I was very like shielded when it came to like horror movies but, that movie happened to come on HBO my parents had HBO at the time and that was my first horror movie ever and I used to just give me nightmares right with the, you burn back.
Speaker 2:That's freaking funny. Well, you're saying that. And the gate you ever see 976 Evil Ready? No yeah, 976 Evil, scream, scream. That's what Tom said before. Scream was a good one, that was a good one. 976 Evil was wild bro. That one was nasty.
Speaker 3:And what's that new one? That's the UHF one. What?
Speaker 2:did you pick for horror movie? My favorite one is Freddy the first, Freddy Okay. Nightmare on Elm Street. Yeah, the original.
Speaker 1:Probably Halloween. Still, yeah, okay, because that was a good one, that was a scary one. Yeah, the OG the first one. The first one Friday the 13th is probably there as well, because they both kind of were in the same around the same time, because that's when I grew up and that's what I saw. Those movies, yeah, they were, and we always watch it like every year when it came on, so it was like already a ritual that you watched? It on tv and you would yeah even now.
Speaker 2:You see it like oh right, yeah, yeah, you know you sit and watch it. Yeah, no doubt, definitely. Okay, what category does do the ones that were like a documentary looking hi, like you know what I mean. Like what would they?
Speaker 3:have to do. Oh, you mean, oh wait, you mean like found footage right, yeah, like right Found footage, yeah, oh you know I never really got big into the found footage horror movie, but Because what?
Speaker 2:was the one in the woods, you know which? Oh, blair Witch, blair Witch.
Speaker 2:That's the one that's what you say, like Black Witch, listen. So I'm gonna tell you funny. Sorry to cut you off, here's the funny horror effect. So I was fresh from down south, so I went from Brooklyn to Florida and then I moved up state Hudson Valley. I'm in there, I'm chilling. We go to the movies to go see it. We go to the movie theater that's across the street from a fucking cemetery. So now I'm scared because I'm hearing things that I've never heard before outside of a door. You know, I'm outside the window. I'm hearing like shit is crunching outside and leaves and I'm like, oh, there's people outside, but I don't see anybody. What's going on? So I'm panicking. I come see this movie. Why? That movie scared the shit out of me, bro. That was one of the scariest movies for me Because it was made to seem like Because story, because what they did, so they lie the actual story.
Speaker 2:So you feel like you're watching, like something. That is because they had a whole bunch of like quote-unquote documentaries on, like the history channel and and nat geo and all that other stuff. So I'm like yo, was that like a real legend, you know? Like I mean, I know that it wasn't real, but just that. And then, like I said, here I am, I'm like I grab my kids, I'm sitting in the cut, like I'm like yo, who's outside? I don't see nobody outside. What is this shit? Yeah, man, that one kind of scared me, but you know I never got big into the found footage ones.
Speaker 3:I mean I liked Billy, they were good.
Speaker 1:I didn't like the whole moving camera thing because it made me sick Cloverfield yeah. That was good.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Cloverfield was a good one. Oh, Amityville Horror. Oh, there you go.
Speaker 3:Hey, tonya, tonya hey.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you called her a witch.
Speaker 3:She said Blair Witch. Oh, she said Blair Witch.
Speaker 2:Yeah, blair, witch Blair.
Speaker 3:Witch.
Speaker 2:That's funny. Yeah, that is funny. Yeah, that was one of those movies, bro. That was one of them Cloverfield. Yeah, you're right. Cloverfield was good, that was wild.
Speaker 1:It was kind of like a what was the second one with John Goodman, where the girl he had her in his place and he was like the guy that had a survival thing and Wasn't that with Cloverfield? It was part of the I think it was part of the story, I believe do you remember what that movie was, was it?
Speaker 1:Cloverfield 2? I don't know, I thought that was Cloverfield no, that one where she and then she escapes to get out yeah, yeah, no, no, he's like all about the world is ending. So then, what was Cloverfield?
Speaker 3:I thought that was Cloverfield the Cloverfield was with the big monster, wasn't?
Speaker 2:oh, why it?
Speaker 1:raw, but this is supposed to take place while that's happening.
Speaker 3:Got you and then you got the alien invasions movies like war of the worlds war of the worlds.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they had like 10 freaking what you call it. That one remakes of that. There's a new one now, the one with.
Speaker 1:I think the one they did with Tom Cruise was probably my best version of it, the way they did it, because I thought it was. It was so realistic and it made sense kind of how they did it and how they and how fearful they had to be from these things sucking you up, yeah, taking all the blood out of you and spraying it everywhere, yeah, yeah, like a fertilizer of some sort.
Speaker 2:It's sick there was a movie called Skyline and it was that the aliens came down and when you would look up at it you were caught in almost like a moth to the flame. And you would look up at the light and the whole face, or like the veins, would kind of pop out and then it would suck you up in there and it was taking your brain out of your body and putting it to make it one of their minions. And then you will have to follow that movie called skyline.
Speaker 2:Yeah, wow, I don't remember.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah Right, that one was wild man, that one was wild, and there's a few of them that when you, I don't remember the names of all of them.
Speaker 3:I think you said Paranormal Activity. All of those were great.
Speaker 2:That's a found footage one. Yes, that was the other day yeah. The fourth kind is another one that was a UFO one. Oh yeah, that one was like so the old school was-, that was-.
Speaker 1:That movie was scary. Really that was a scary sci-fi movie.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was scary Because they had actual footage in that. Yeah, were they put side by side.
Speaker 3:No, no, no, no. I thought you were talking about strange encounters of a Close encounters, close the third kind and then they did one.
Speaker 1:The fourth kind is what it's called, just the fourth kind, and it's about how these people are like aliens are taking a load and they put this the movie footage and the live and the actual footage the video and you see this person just levitating in it right there. Yeah, like this crazy stuff, it's like oh my god.
Speaker 2:they were showing that the actual footage was police dash cam and one of them where the police were cop-sitting.
Speaker 1:Somebody was pulling out of the house, yeah.
Speaker 2:The cop was sitting here and he's like what the hell is that? And he goes up, he steps out the car, he looks up and the actual cam was somebody was coming out of the house, right, because something came over the top. It took him. And then you hear him talking, but you to call in and the video is not working.
Speaker 3:It was a good movie. They did a good job on that, do you know? It's another good movie, don't forget.
Speaker 2:Oh, Poltergeist.
Speaker 1:Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 2:Walter.
Speaker 1:States was another one.
Speaker 2:Walter. States Jesus man yeah, but Poltergeist was a real creepy movie.
Speaker 1:Yeah, poltergeist, especially that lady. Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 3:Don't go to the lobby or but the third one was really weird.
Speaker 2:The one that was in the apartment In the apartment building, yeah, in the tower. This house is clean.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah, that old man, I always think Ace Ventura, that's another horror movie that I saw when I was little was the Poltergeist.
Speaker 3:Yeah, the one scene in the Poltergeist that used to freak me the fuck out was the mezcal. I don't know the one he's drinking, the mezcal or tequila.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, he swallows the worm and vomits out. Oh yeah, yeah, they do that.
Speaker 1:The big fucking worm that possesses him somehow.
Speaker 3:Yeah, no, like he vomits out it, but it's a giant worm.
Speaker 2:It's a giant worm, so he's like ah, and as he's throwing up, it's the worm that he just swallowed, but it just, yeah, but it doesn't happen until later, though. Right yeah, it doesn't happen until later, because he's like almost possessed for a little while.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, that's right, and he finally gets it out of him with the braces all over the place. My god, yeah, they've been some good ones that's good it's like psychological horror like that, yeah, yeah, because like they're trying to show you that like a poltergeist is like way worse than haunting yeah, that's right.
Speaker 2:That's what that was trying to show like everybody's like oh, haunted house like well, we're gonna show you a poltergeist oh yeah, but that's what they did with, I don't know, hauntings was the other ones, yeah, but the Amityville Horror is the same thing. It's like that too.
Speaker 1:And also Haunting at the same time. Right, yeah, you got the grease, you got the. You know the.
Speaker 3:Tanya's helping us out again. Uh-oh, calm Tanya, it's good. What is the scariest movie of all time?
Speaker 2:Oh, it depends time? Oh, it depends, did she say it no, no, because it'll be for us, because it's the scariest movie the whole time. Well, we gotta think too, though, man, because you know what it's what we would find scary, right. So I would have to say oh man, scariest of all.
Speaker 1:I got a few of them, but every time, no matter how many times I see it it's, I always get the same feelings. I would have to see the shining. Yeah, yeah, it would be there, see that doesn't scare me.
Speaker 2:In the same feelings I'd have to see the shining. Yeah, yeah, maybe there in the top five at least.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that was the movie still to this day that creeped me out yeah, right I think, I think I'm gonna have to agree because, like, I'm not going back and watch, just gonna bash your fucking brains in and bash them right the fuck in the way he says it right the fuck in that's freaking hilarious.
Speaker 2:That's going to be getting bleaked out, but anyway yeah it's all right.
Speaker 3:Yep, oh great stuff.
Speaker 2:That's funny, no but. But that didn't scare me, man, Like it didn't even like it wasn't even, like it's the psychological, it's just the whole idea.
Speaker 1:And then he falls and the front's freezing and the kid tricks him, you know, smots him, walks backwards in his footsteps, makes him lose it and he's stuck. He freezes up.
Speaker 2:Man, I'm going to say for me, man, my biggest one, I think, because maybe for me what I guess was more a reality is Clockwork Orange man.
Speaker 1:That one was scary too.
Speaker 2:Like that one for me like that was the one that was like holy shit, like lock the doors.
Speaker 1:You know what I mean. That was different for me because that was more like this guy was assaulting people, like he was breaking into their house and doing some freaky shit yeah.
Speaker 2:But I think that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:I think for me that's why that person they had his eye yeah, yeah, they were putting drops his eyes and they had all this crazy shit on the screen. They're trying to reprogram him. You know he can't close his eyes, he cannot watch. He's got to watch this thing.
Speaker 3:How funny is it that he would end up playing loomis in the?
Speaker 2:remake yeah, yeah, rob zombie's remake, yeah, yeah oh yeah, yeah, he did.
Speaker 3:He's done a lot of stuff in more recent years.
Speaker 1:I mean the guy just a great actor I mean the guy, the actor.
Speaker 2:McDowell, roddy McDowell, not Roddy. Mcdowell not Roddy. Yeah, something like that, yeah, but I'm gonna tell you bro, yeah, we were saying Rob Zombie, all the remakes that he's done have been super but he, we still got a little bit. But Rob Zombie, he really took a lot of those old movies and he just kicked them up and even his original stuff I yeah I mean, I didn't like the third one because they they, so they they.
Speaker 3:Basically they're three movies with different titles. So the first one is house of a thousand corpse, right, that was. The second was devil's rejects. That was, that was favorite, he did one more continuation of that, and yeah, where they didn't die yeah they kind of brought him back to life and that was kind of weird.
Speaker 2:I didn't like it but the Devil's Rejects.
Speaker 3:That's my favorite Rob Zombie movie that is the best one, and it's so quotable too, where we're like Chinese. Japanese you know, or he's like Tootie Tootie, tootie Tootie.
Speaker 1:Tootie dude Rudy that guy those movies were scary, bob Darby. You know why? Because what does he say? I'm Billy Wonka and this is my chocolate factory. There's so many post-it movies. What are we saying?
Speaker 2:Chainsaw Massacre yeah, bro, I forgot about that, that was some scary shit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that was wild. Even that bootleg, the very first movie, the very first one that I grew up watching, the very first one that I grew up watching, the very first one that will even that movie, even though it was it was like a b movie because it was right, but it was still scary. Yeah, as all hell to watch this movie, you know, and that would be one of the classics you get. But as far as really hard, gory stuff, for me it's evil, dead, oh evil dead is super gory and it's very haunt.
Speaker 1:These, these things are evil and they want to hurt you.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I like Evil Dead.
Speaker 1:Evil Dead, yes, and even the last one they did, the last one they just had out on Evil Dead was really good, but I also like how it does have a little bit of humor spliced in.
Speaker 3:You know what I mean. Yeah, yeah, the theme is always have some smart ass, stupid shit. Are you talking about the original, you know?
Speaker 1:well, I'm talking about the original, but I'm talking about everything from it. Okay, all the sequels and stuff like that, the last one though, was with the apartment building the apartment building.
Speaker 2:That one they did a great job on. I wish you would've come with that one.
Speaker 1:That one was insane that movie was sick because, yeah, you know, they say in the words and he's talking. Oh my God.
Speaker 2:Don't do it to me at all, Because with the other one where Ash came in, you know he had the chainsaw hand.
Speaker 1:Well, yeah, because he had a chopper's handle Like those were.
Speaker 2:Like you know, that's like cult classic now, right, you know what I mean. So those are official, I like those, oh man yeah. I'm digging those man, I love it. I love it. I mean, again, it depends on what it is that you find scary. You know what I'm saying. Like again, going back to the Conjuring, like that entire scene, that's scary, annabelle.
Speaker 1:That's scary right, All that shit.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like all of those man, like you know that somebody's possessed. Those are, like you know what I mean. It is like, holy shit, that's been Annabelle bro. Wait, what's the name of the other one with the other robot?
Speaker 1:Oh, the new one that just came out the one with the girl. Yeah, there's a second one they made too.
Speaker 2:Right, yeah, I can't remember the name of that chick.
Speaker 3:And don't forget also we didn't talk about Child's Play. Oh, chucky bro, and a series.
Speaker 2:I loved the series.
Speaker 1:Yeah, ch year. Yeah, chucky was the was sick. The series was yeah, yeah, I mean, yeah, totally demented man a doll.
Speaker 3:Yeah, he has another doll, but like the series, started getting a little crazy, like now he's like in the white house when it's like.
Speaker 2:It's like you know it's a fictitious president, but you got like a president's.
Speaker 3:like kid is the Chucky doll and he's killing people yeah that was a little bit extra. It was a little out there, but you know the TV show did the series was whack but the movie was pretty cool.
Speaker 1:The first one was pretty crazy.
Speaker 2:The funny one out of all of them was the Bride of Chucky. And then, when Chucky had a kid, that's what I'm saying Really.
Speaker 1:You lost me now on this. Actually, you know what?
Speaker 3:I actually I feel like I need to take back what's my favorite not scary, scary movie Beetlejuice, beetlejuice not scary, of course.
Speaker 1:Well, that goes with.
Speaker 2:Wednesday too, even though it's not a movie. But Wednesday is Killer Clowns. Yeah, oh, actually you did say Killer Clowns yeah right Wednesday is involved in that too.
Speaker 1:I love it pretty cool we forgot the one that's the scariest what the one of the dead oh, dawn of the dawn of the dead eating zombies the dawn of the dead, day of the dead even night of the living day original one, where the guy goes out the window and they shoot him.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the black and white one.
Speaker 3:Yep, yeah, man oh don't, oh, we, oh, we're going to zombie movies. We haven't even talked about zombie.
Speaker 1:There are so many different zombie movies.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I mean, first of all, you got like your original night of living dead. My favorite, I would say, out of all the zombie series would be it's not the walking dead, believe or not, I like the great series, don't get me wrong kind of at the end it kind of tailed off a little bit. I think my favorite is return of the living dead mine too.
Speaker 1:Yes, what was it?
Speaker 3:yeah what was the name of the uh, of the, the, the chemical company that they had? Oh? Dude darrow chemical company or something like that.
Speaker 2:It was yeah, but like.
Speaker 3:The thing about them is that they were intelligent zombies. They talked, yeah, and they knew how to bait people.
Speaker 2:Yeah, come on so when the ambulance showed up or whatever, or when the cops showed up.
Speaker 3:It was like send a cop.
Speaker 2:Yeah, oh, I saw that that's great, tie one up. You think that's perfect, they tie one up.
Speaker 1:They tie one up, they tie one up, they tie one up Uh-huh, yeah, yeah, yeah, they even like tie one up they like get one and tie it up in the morgue.
Speaker 3:And they're like why are you eating everyone's? Because they eat brains. Right, these zombies only eat brains. They don't eat anything else, because she's like, because it makes the pain go away, the pain of being dead yeah like I was, like that's it gives lore to it.
Speaker 1:I kind of like that, like makes it go away.
Speaker 3:That's why yeah like oh, it makes the pain go away.
Speaker 1:So they just what's the one zombie movie I can't remember. It was the guy who always did the pathmark commercials and they were in this like warehouse or something and they moved one of the containers and it broke open and this gas came out and it turned into.
Speaker 3:That's the one. It wasn't. At Bathmark they were in a. They were in like a medical supply.
Speaker 2:Bathmark commercials yeah oh that guy, oh the old guy yeah oh, okay, if I'm not mistaken, it was the same
Speaker 1:guy yeah, so that's. But that movie always stood out in my head because that thing would pop open and then they would turn into the zombie.
Speaker 3:But that whole movie has so much lore to it. I love it because so like what happened was, is they killed the zombie or whatever? And oh no, the gas. First the gas came out. But then they, the first one of the cadavers, came alive, because it was a medical supply place and he's like oh, he's running and you know they cut him and the parts are still moving. So in this zombie lore, they still move.
Speaker 1:It's like Evil Dead, yeah right.
Speaker 3:But also they put him in the incinerator and it formed a cloud, and then the acid rain came down, and then it remade all the buried ones.
Speaker 2:That's what.
Speaker 1:I like about the movie.
Speaker 2:They give a whole lore Rihanna made all the buried ones.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:That's what I like about the movie. They give a whole lore.
Speaker 3:Very cool Like because in the original Night of the Living Dead, oh, oh, oh, Tanya's sharing the heck out of our Tanya for sharing all of life. She that's. The whole thing is that that movie gave so much lore?
Speaker 1:because, like the, the survival just happened and everybody's freaking out and you know, and people got to find shelter and whatever they're doing. And then you know, but I love the whole ending of the movie. You know it sucks, but it's typical of something that would happen. You know, the guy goes hey, I'm over here, and boom, they shoot him and he's dead. And he survived the whole thing. But Return of the.
Speaker 2:Living Dead is supposed to be like an unofficial sequel to that's where the first zombie that's in the container right and there's a number that says call this number.
Speaker 3:That's why I think at the end of return of living dead, they call the number and the military goes okay and they just shoot a missile at the fucking yeah, that was it, that's right, I forgot about that but then at the end you see rain coming down right, it starts all over again and shit yeah. They made it worse.
Speaker 2:They made it worse.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's freaking hilarious man Don't kill zombies. There were a lot of them.
Speaker 2:World War Z was the upgrade to any of those.
Speaker 1:Oh, that was a great one. I loved it. I loved the whole concept. Yeah, because now you had the zombies he had to actually put a disease into himself in order for him to be safe, because then that zombie knew whether or not you were sick or you were not. And then it would only go after a healthy body, yep, which is so. That's a great idea when you think about it. Yeah, that was Brooke's son, by the way, did that?
Speaker 2:Oh, no shit.
Speaker 3:Didn't? I know that, and that's another thing too is that they did. They did like these zombie type movies that weren't zombie movies, like 28 days later, zombies. And then what was the other one with what's his name, will smith? What was the movie with will smith? I am legend. I am legend. They weren't zombies, right, they?
Speaker 1:were like, like vampires, almost well, they were zombies.
Speaker 2:But they were, but they weren't, but they evolved, yeah, oh that's like you know.
Speaker 1:I'm saying yeah, so, like they were, but they were more like yeah, they were zombies, but they were but they weren't, but they evolved. Yeah, oh, that's right, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, so like they were just like kind of mindless, yeah, they were more like vampires because they could only come out at night anyway.
Speaker 3:You never saw them in the daytime? Yeah, that too. And of course you have Resident Evil. Which Resident Evil? So the games were better.
Speaker 2:Yeah, all right, the games were fucking scary bro. Oh my God, you could talk about that.
Speaker 1:I mean, that's a yeah, that's a brutal game, man, and the smartest thing they did about.
Speaker 3:I know we're talking about video game, but we could sidebar a little bit you know what I mean, as we always do.
Speaker 1:But the thing that they Do, what we want.
Speaker 2:That's right you know what.
Speaker 3:I'm saying but no, but like the thing that they were so smart at the time, because at that time was the games were still disc based and they didn't have hard drives, so you had to have that fucking loading screen where the door would, so they managed to do it. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Like oh my God, is this loading what you doing, what?
Speaker 1:you doing? Yeah, oh, remember talking about crazy games that are gory. Doom, yeah, doom was kind of awesome.
Speaker 2:Doom was a crazy game and that's a zombie technique.
Speaker 3:Well, zombies had demons, right yeah.
Speaker 1:You go around shooting these things, you get these crazy weapons, like if you get so many, and then you get an arsenal and you got these crazy weapons and you're taking these things out, man, and you know what's cool?
Speaker 3:So those were zombies and demons coming up from hell. Then they did the sequel quake, which is right, which was really just a sequel to doom where they were in hell.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, really yeah and the cool part is the first quake. This is such a cool easter egg that they did the very first quake. Again. It was cd-rom based the game. Yeah, what they did was the soundtrack was written by trent resner for the original right from nine inch nails for the original quake. But if you had quake loaded onto your computer you didn't need the disc drive. The disc just had the music on it, right, if you threw on a downward spiral from nine inch nails it worked like the beginning of one of the songs used to be the ending as your score was loading up and it sounds like something you'd hear right like in a.
Speaker 3:It was like everything was just like perfect when, when you get the bfg which is bfg 9000, I think what the name was, which stands for big fucking gun.
Speaker 2:Yes, video games, but the horrors, but the games, make movies too like what about the? Yeah, what's the series now?
Speaker 1:that they have out the, the horror, the, uh, zombie movie too. Like, what about the? What's the series now that they have out the horror, the zombie movie that's out? Now, come on, what's the one that they have, the new one that's been going out? Oh man, I gotta look it up. I can't remember the name of that. Another zombie movie. Yeah, because Justin was here talking about. Justin, sat with us and talked about it and I can't remember Dungeons and. Dragons no Not that zombie movie, but it was also a zombie type thing.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:The girl had to do with it. She was not infected. He was protecting the girl. Yeah, remember it had to do with the shrooms, wasn't that 20?
Speaker 3:Oh no, oh, my God. I'm trying to find it. The Last of Us to do with the, with the shrooms, wasn't that 28? Oh no, oh, oh, my god.
Speaker 1:I'm trying to find the last of us, the last of us, thank you. Oh yeah, I apologize everyone.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you messed me up yeah, I wasn't even thinking that as like, that's a hard movie, that's hard too. I mean, that is no joke.
Speaker 1:Another video based thing for sure. Yeah, that was good stuff. That series is good, I hope. I think they're coming out with another, another season, I think.
Speaker 2:I don't know.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's supposed to, but it'd be nice if I could see that. That'd be cool. It was good.
Speaker 2:But yeah, there's a lot of good horror stuff. Man, and you know, I think I never realized how much I enjoyed the holiday. Yeah, you know, and it's not even so much like just doing the dress up I never really ever dress up and such. Yeah, doing that stuff, I just like the movies, I like the yeah, you know what?
Speaker 1:would you consider Godzilla and King Kong horror or Halloween based?
Speaker 2:huh, I don't know. I don't know, you don't yeah, I would say so, I would say so yeah.
Speaker 1:I guess in a way because it's scary. It's scary right, and they're monsters and they're monsters.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, I would say they're large monsters.
Speaker 2:But, you know what?
Speaker 3:The thing about Halloween is, I feel like I know we're getting a little because we're wrapping up the episode anyway, but when you said Halloween, I feel like Halloween kind of got re-energized by Spirit Halloween.
Speaker 1:Yeah, definitely, oh yeah, kind of got re-energized by Spirit Halloween and why we're going to have my son on.
Speaker 3:I think that might be that's going to be the next episode we're talking about. Spirit Halloween Chase is going to be on my son. He's like their number one fan. I think that it's become a cultural thing now. Spirit Halloween.
