And I remember watching 176 00:08:01,744 --> 00:08:03,864 Speaker 1: it when it came out just being absolutely obsessed with 177 00:08:03,904 --> 00:08:06,704 Speaker 1: like the world and the characters and like and like 178 00:08:06,824 --> 00:08:09,424 Speaker 1: kind of those evil vampires and the sex and it's 179 00:08:09,464 --> 00:08:11,664 Speaker 1: just such a good watch. I've rewatched it maybe during 180 00:08:11,664 --> 00:08:15,104 Speaker 1: the second Sydney Lockdown. It really holds up as a 181 00:08:15,144 --> 00:08:17,784 Speaker 1: rewatch and sometimes even now, like you see different things 182 00:08:17,784 --> 00:08:19,144 Speaker 1: and that's so much of it. 183 00:08:19,384 --> 00:08:22,704 Speaker 4: So you should watch it, like then your team Eric 184 00:08:22,744 --> 00:08:24,624 Speaker 4: for anyway, go watch it. 185 00:08:24,624 --> 00:08:25,184 Speaker 3: It's so good. 186 00:08:25,264 --> 00:08:27,224 Speaker 2: I'm going to rewatch it and then try to persevere 187 00:08:27,224 --> 00:08:28,104 Speaker 2: through The Bloody. 188 00:08:27,824 --> 00:08:33,104 Speaker 1: Lady, so Kelly's steaming TV shows. I'm doing vampire movies 189 00:08:33,144 --> 00:08:34,904 Speaker 1: because obviously everyone knows. 190 00:08:35,184 --> 00:08:36,584 Speaker 2: To talk about the ones that are talking about all 191 00:08:36,544 --> 00:08:36,904 Speaker 2: the time. 192 00:08:37,024 --> 00:08:39,144 Speaker 1: Yeah, because the thing is, the vampire genre is my 193 00:08:39,224 --> 00:08:43,064 Speaker 1: favorite genre, both in movie and TV shows, and I 194 00:08:43,104 --> 00:08:44,904 Speaker 1: don't think we have to talk about my favorite vampire 195 00:08:44,904 --> 00:08:46,224 Speaker 1: show because everyone knows what it is. 196 00:08:46,384 --> 00:08:46,704 Speaker 3: Buffy. 197 00:08:46,904 --> 00:08:50,024 Speaker 4: I did say earlier that I hadn't watched it, and 198 00:08:50,104 --> 00:08:50,544 Speaker 4: Laura was. 199 00:08:50,544 --> 00:08:51,744 Speaker 3: Like, well, that's no. 200 00:08:51,864 --> 00:08:53,544 Speaker 1: I said, it's a bigger conversation for us to have 201 00:08:53,624 --> 00:08:55,304 Speaker 1: later because I think you shouldn't watched it. But I 202 00:08:55,384 --> 00:08:58,304 Speaker 1: have to give I have to give some caveats to that. Also, 203 00:08:58,344 --> 00:09:01,064 Speaker 1: when I was picking my best vampire movies, I didn't 204 00:09:01,104 --> 00:09:02,664 Speaker 1: want to talk about ones that I've talked about in 205 00:09:02,664 --> 00:09:04,984 Speaker 1: the spill many times before, because there's quite a few 206 00:09:05,064 --> 00:09:08,264 Speaker 1: vampire movies that are on my top movies of all time. 207 00:09:08,704 --> 00:09:11,424 Speaker 1: My favorite movie is obviously TWI yes, I'm a big 208 00:09:11,424 --> 00:09:14,824 Speaker 1: friend Twilight, not even a little bit. No, I've read 209 00:09:14,824 --> 00:09:16,424 Speaker 1: the books. I just didn't want her and Edward to 210 00:09:16,424 --> 00:09:18,864 Speaker 1: be together. I found it very jarring to read Twilight 211 00:09:18,864 --> 00:09:20,864 Speaker 1: because I've been raised on Buffy. The Vampire Slayer, and 212 00:09:20,864 --> 00:09:22,784 Speaker 1: I'm like, this is not it, No, but one of 213 00:09:22,784 --> 00:09:24,984 Speaker 1: my very favorite movies of all time on my top 214 00:09:25,024 --> 00:09:26,744 Speaker 1: four movies list, which is a hard place to be, 215 00:09:26,944 --> 00:09:30,744 Speaker 1: is bram Stoker's Dracula. That's the definitive vampire movie of 216 00:09:30,784 --> 00:09:31,224 Speaker 1: all time. 217 00:09:31,464 --> 00:09:34,504 Speaker 2: But I never heard of it before. What Okay, obviously 218 00:09:34,544 --> 00:09:35,344 Speaker 2: I've heard of like, you. 219 00:09:35,264 --> 00:09:36,064 Speaker 3: Would really like it? 220 00:09:37,064 --> 00:09:38,864 Speaker 1: Interview with Vampire. Also, I'm not going to talk about 221 00:09:38,864 --> 00:09:41,904 Speaker 1: today because I've talked about that. Heaps another fantastic movie. 222 00:09:42,064 --> 00:09:44,064 Speaker 1: I'm trying to pick more under the radar ones. But yeah, 223 00:09:44,064 --> 00:09:47,944 Speaker 1: obviously can and watch from mPire, which one. 224 00:09:47,784 --> 00:09:49,104 Speaker 2: The one that you did, Brompston. 225 00:09:49,344 --> 00:09:53,544 Speaker 1: Bram Stoker's Dracula. It's the original Dracula story. Okay, based 226 00:09:53,584 --> 00:09:56,984 Speaker 1: on the book where Dracula was first invented. But no, yes, 227 00:09:57,064 --> 00:09:59,704 Speaker 1: it was made many years ago. But it stars Winona, writer, 228 00:10:00,064 --> 00:10:03,344 Speaker 1: Keanu Reeves, Gary Oldman, Sadie Frost. 229 00:10:03,864 --> 00:10:06,544 Speaker 3: It's beautiful to wat raising my hand. Yeah, why are 230 00:10:06,544 --> 00:10:07,304 Speaker 3: you raising your hand? 231 00:10:08,024 --> 00:10:08,344 Speaker 2: Child? 232 00:10:08,784 --> 00:10:12,504 Speaker 1: No, she's an adult. She's the lead romantic interest of Dracula. 233 00:10:12,624 --> 00:10:15,944 Speaker 1: I'm thinking about Kirsten Dunstein into the Vampire. Different movie 234 00:10:16,104 --> 00:10:19,344 Speaker 1: you would actually like bramstory because Draucula, it's beautiful little 235 00:10:19,384 --> 00:10:22,584 Speaker 1: it's very like cinematic to watch. The clothes are amazing, 236 00:10:22,624 --> 00:10:24,664 Speaker 1: the sex scenes are amazing. It's a bunch of hot 237 00:10:24,704 --> 00:10:26,984 Speaker 1: people falling in love and getting killed and I would 238 00:10:27,024 --> 00:10:29,904 Speaker 1: really love and very sexy biting. So no, no, Instead 239 00:10:29,904 --> 00:10:31,744 Speaker 1: of talking about all of those movies that I've talked 240 00:10:31,744 --> 00:10:33,984 Speaker 1: about a thousand times and like Nosferatu that we talked 241 00:10:34,024 --> 00:10:36,464 Speaker 1: about last year that I also loved, I'm taking us 242 00:10:36,504 --> 00:10:39,944 Speaker 1: back to nineteen sixty seven for one of my very 243 00:10:39,944 --> 00:10:43,424 Speaker 1: favorite movies. A little caveat on this that I'm only 244 00:10:43,424 --> 00:10:45,504 Speaker 1: going to recommend this movie on the Spill. I wouldn't 245 00:10:45,544 --> 00:10:47,824 Speaker 1: post about it. I wouldn't write about it because I 246 00:10:47,904 --> 00:10:50,184 Speaker 1: understand how problematic it is. But I would like crime 247 00:10:50,304 --> 00:10:52,904 Speaker 1: movie the spill. It's private between me and the spill 248 00:10:53,024 --> 00:10:57,864 Speaker 1: is because this movie was directed and also stars Rouman Polanski, 249 00:10:58,464 --> 00:11:00,824 Speaker 1: which I don't condone anything that man has done. He's 250 00:11:00,944 --> 00:11:03,784 Speaker 1: a really bad person, just so you know. But this 251 00:11:03,864 --> 00:11:06,624 Speaker 1: movie stars Sharon Tate, who's obvious an incredible actress who 252 00:11:06,664 --> 00:11:09,784 Speaker 1: was murdered, and so I really like watching her movies 253 00:11:09,824 --> 00:11:12,864 Speaker 1: because even though there's some problematic things in her past. 254 00:11:12,944 --> 00:11:14,024 Speaker 3: She's a really. 255 00:11:13,904 --> 00:11:14,624 Speaker 2: Dan did it? 256 00:11:15,064 --> 00:11:17,824 Speaker 1: Yeah, Oh my god, that's all She's in Once upon 257 00:11:17,824 --> 00:11:18,624 Speaker 1: a Time in Hollywood. 258 00:11:18,664 --> 00:11:20,144 Speaker 3: Mrgo Robbie plays her. It's a whole thing. 259 00:11:20,224 --> 00:11:22,344 Speaker 1: But anyway, I pretty much watched every vampire movie in 260 00:11:22,344 --> 00:11:24,664 Speaker 1: the world, and I love to watch really really old ones. 261 00:11:24,904 --> 00:11:27,504 Speaker 1: And the best old vampire movie that I found is 262 00:11:27,544 --> 00:11:29,864 Speaker 1: called The Fearless Vampire Killers, and you can watch it 263 00:11:29,864 --> 00:11:31,864 Speaker 1: on Prime video. You can rent it or you can 264 00:11:31,864 --> 00:11:34,264 Speaker 1: buy it like I did for like two dollars. Came 265 00:11:34,264 --> 00:11:38,064 Speaker 1: out in nineteen sixty seven, and it's set in like Romania, 266 00:11:38,104 --> 00:11:39,984 Speaker 1: and it's these two vampire hunters that go to this 267 00:11:40,024 --> 00:11:43,424 Speaker 1: small town like they're traveling across Transylvania. It's really schlocky, 268 00:11:43,464 --> 00:11:45,584 Speaker 1: but it's also really old school where they come to 269 00:11:45,624 --> 00:11:48,464 Speaker 1: this little town, they meet Sharon Tate's character, who's the 270 00:11:48,744 --> 00:11:51,544 Speaker 1: daughter of the barkeeper. And then like in the castle 271 00:11:51,624 --> 00:11:53,784 Speaker 1: not far away lives Count Dracula with all of his 272 00:11:53,904 --> 00:11:57,024 Speaker 1: crazy vampires, and he comes and kidnaps her, and so 273 00:11:57,064 --> 00:11:58,704 Speaker 1: they go to the castle and rescue her, and it's 274 00:11:58,704 --> 00:12:00,784 Speaker 1: like full of vampires and they have to escape. 275 00:12:00,864 --> 00:12:02,024 Speaker 3: But it's really old school. 276 00:12:02,064 --> 00:12:04,144 Speaker 1: You probably would see the clips come up on TikTok 277 00:12:04,184 --> 00:12:06,584 Speaker 1: all the time because it's just so cinematic. There's this 278 00:12:06,664 --> 00:12:09,144 Speaker 1: scene where Sharon Tate and the two vampire hunters are 279 00:12:09,224 --> 00:12:11,224 Speaker 1: dancing and all of a sudden comes up and there's 280 00:12:11,224 --> 00:12:13,624 Speaker 1: no one behind them because they're all vampires. There's also 281 00:12:13,664 --> 00:12:15,544 Speaker 1: a scene where like as the sun goes down, all 282 00:12:15,624 --> 00:12:18,584 Speaker 1: these coffins slowly open and the vampires crawl out of them. 283 00:12:18,744 --> 00:12:21,544 Speaker 1: There's a really famous final scene where they're like escaping 284 00:12:21,584 --> 00:12:24,504 Speaker 1: on a sled and someone becomes a vampire. It's just 285 00:12:24,664 --> 00:12:28,304 Speaker 1: very like cinematic and like creepy, but also like weirdly 286 00:12:28,384 --> 00:12:31,744 Speaker 1: like funny. Okay, yes, And it's just I just feel 287 00:12:31,744 --> 00:12:33,064 Speaker 1: like if you want to like go back through like 288 00:12:33,104 --> 00:12:37,224 Speaker 1: the really really old vampire movies, the Fearss Vampire Killers. 289 00:12:37,304 --> 00:12:38,224 Speaker 3: You've probably seen the clips. 290 00:12:38,224 --> 00:12:40,624 Speaker 1: They come up on TikTok all the time because people 291 00:12:40,664 --> 00:12:44,304 Speaker 1: are like rediscovering it. So I know there's problematic origins there, 292 00:12:44,624 --> 00:12:46,104 Speaker 1: but there's also a lot of people involved with it 293 00:12:46,144 --> 00:12:47,544 Speaker 1: who are just really great filmmakers. 294 00:12:47,624 --> 00:12:48,704 Speaker 3: So I do watch. 295 00:12:48,464 --> 00:12:51,264 Speaker 1: It with the caveat that it's a bit problematic, But yeah, 296 00:12:51,264 --> 00:12:54,224 Speaker 1: Fearless Vampire Killers on Prime video just if you want 297 00:12:54,264 --> 00:12:57,424 Speaker 1: really old school, old old school vampire horrors.
