WEBVTT - Deep Cuts Horror Hit List #8 “Smile”

0:00:08.920 --> 0:00:13.600
<v Speaker 1>Hey there, folks. Sit It's Friday night, October twenty fourth.

0:00:13.720 --> 0:00:17.279
<v Speaker 1>You are looking for a good horror movie to get

0:00:17.360 --> 0:00:20.720
<v Speaker 1>you in the move for Halloween is just a week away.

0:00:20.720 --> 0:00:24.880
<v Speaker 1>But we got one for you, and Kevin Bacon's daughter

0:00:25.720 --> 0:00:29.480
<v Speaker 1>is in it and she is very, very skewy. Welcome

0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:31.800
<v Speaker 1>everybody to this episode of Amy and TJ. We continue

0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:33.560
<v Speaker 1>to count down our horror hit list. We are at

0:00:33.600 --> 0:00:35.080
<v Speaker 1>can you Believe it? Rose? We have made it to

0:00:35.159 --> 0:00:38.120
<v Speaker 1>number eight and this is one of our newer entries

0:00:38.760 --> 0:00:39.240
<v Speaker 1>on the list.

0:00:39.840 --> 0:00:43.080
<v Speaker 2>We in fact it's new, but there's already a sequel

0:00:43.560 --> 0:00:46.760
<v Speaker 2>and oh yeah, that was spectacular as well, but we

0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:50.760
<v Speaker 2>have to stick with the original smile for our number

0:00:50.880 --> 0:00:53.440
<v Speaker 2>eight on our horror hit list. It was released in

0:00:53.520 --> 0:00:56.840
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty two, so three years ago. It's longer. It

0:00:56.920 --> 0:01:01.240
<v Speaker 2>might be one of the longer or longest movies on

0:01:01.280 --> 0:01:03.440
<v Speaker 2>our list. It's an hour and fifty six minutes. But

0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:05.840
<v Speaker 2>I have to tell you it is so entertaining. It

0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:08.720
<v Speaker 2>lies by. I had no idea that this was a

0:01:08.720 --> 0:01:10.880
<v Speaker 2>little longer than the others. Usually you can tell.

0:01:11.000 --> 0:01:13.640
<v Speaker 1>You can feel I did not. It surprise me as well.

0:01:13.640 --> 0:01:15.440
<v Speaker 1>This is a two hour horror movie. And those are

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:16.640
<v Speaker 1>few and four between.

0:01:16.800 --> 0:01:19.399
<v Speaker 2>Actually, there really are not many, because it's hard to

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:22.480
<v Speaker 2>keep that kind of suspense going for that long without

0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:26.680
<v Speaker 2>it getting ridiculous. But this one manages to just strike

0:01:26.720 --> 0:01:30.320
<v Speaker 2>the perfect balance horror, mystery thriller. And here's the synopsis.

0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:35.200
<v Speaker 2>After witnessing a bizarre traumatic incident involving a patient, a

0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:39.560
<v Speaker 2>psychiatrist becomes increasingly convinced she is being threatened by an

0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 2>uncanny entity. Hmmm, does that really give it what it deserves?

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:47.960
<v Speaker 1>I have an alternate down there that kind of starts

0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:50.880
<v Speaker 1>off the same way. After witnessing a bizarre traumatic incident

0:01:50.920 --> 0:01:55.360
<v Speaker 1>involving a patient, doctor Rose Cotter starts experiencing frightening occurrences

0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:59.040
<v Speaker 1>that she can't explain. As an overwhelming terror begins taking

0:01:59.080 --> 0:02:01.920
<v Speaker 1>over her life, Rose must confront her troubling past in

0:02:02.000 --> 0:02:06.840
<v Speaker 1>order to survive and escape her horrifying new reality. A

0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:08.000
<v Speaker 1>little more but still vague.

0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:10.919
<v Speaker 2>It's vague, And it's so interesting that they don't talk

0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:14.960
<v Speaker 2>about the smile. The smile about the sinister nature of

0:02:15.120 --> 0:02:18.960
<v Speaker 2>someone smiling at you but with mal intent, and we

0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:21.600
<v Speaker 2>all know the difference between the two. And it's the

0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:25.240
<v Speaker 2>creepiest thing ever. If someone smiles when they're angry, and.

0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:27.720
<v Speaker 1>I want to give this person credit. I don't have

0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:30.880
<v Speaker 1>her name, but when we saw the movie poster for

0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:33.200
<v Speaker 1>this movie, we knew we were going to see this

0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:36.480
<v Speaker 1>because it's the young lady on all the movie art

0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:40.799
<v Speaker 1>who has a very sinister smile on her face, demonic smile,

0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:44.160
<v Speaker 1>and it is just wonderful. It's so good, it's so great.

0:02:44.200 --> 0:02:48.520
<v Speaker 1>So this movie did gang busters. It made one hundred

0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:52.240
<v Speaker 1>and six million dollars domestically at the box office, another

0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:55.600
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and eleven million at the international box office.

0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:58.400
<v Speaker 1>This is a whopping two hundred and seventeen point four

0:02:58.440 --> 0:02:59.200
<v Speaker 1>million dollars.

0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:01.639
<v Speaker 2>That's why there is already been a sequel. I love

0:03:02.600 --> 0:03:07.080
<v Speaker 2>they knew they had a winner, And honestly, I think

0:03:07.120 --> 0:03:09.800
<v Speaker 2>after you watch this, you're gonna want to race out

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:13.079
<v Speaker 2>and see Smile too, because it picks up right where

0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:15.520
<v Speaker 2>this one leaves off, which is really cool. I love

0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:18.000
<v Speaker 2>when horror movies do that. So this is really a

0:03:18.000 --> 0:03:20.360
<v Speaker 2>fun one two punch. If you love this one, you

0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:22.120
<v Speaker 2>were going to have a blast with the sequel.

0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I don't want to get into the sequel, but

0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:29.399
<v Speaker 1>the opening sequence of the sequel is so good. Yeah, yeah, sorry,

0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:30.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to give too much away. I'm going

0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:31.560
<v Speaker 1>ahead of myself. Sorry.

0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.240
<v Speaker 2>Yes, but the cast, as you mentioned, so Ce Bacon,

0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:37.520
<v Speaker 2>that is Kevin Bacon and Kiras Sedgwick's daughter, and she

0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:40.840
<v Speaker 2>is so good in this film. She's so creepy. As

0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:44.560
<v Speaker 2>you mentioned, Jesse t Usher is in this. Kyle Gellner,

0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:45.440
<v Speaker 2>you know.

0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:48.640
<v Speaker 1>Him and you love everybody, and you know his face

0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:50.640
<v Speaker 1>and you're go say, where I see him? Where did

0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:52.640
<v Speaker 1>I see him? He is a great actor. He was

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:56.240
<v Speaker 1>in The Strange Darlings, which isn't too far from maybe

0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:59.520
<v Speaker 1>being on a list as well. He's a hell of

0:03:59.560 --> 0:03:59.880
<v Speaker 1>an actor.

0:03:59.880 --> 0:04:01.920
<v Speaker 2>I feel like in so many of these movies, I

0:04:02.040 --> 0:04:05.480
<v Speaker 2>know the faces, yes, I just don't necessarily know the names,

0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:08.200
<v Speaker 2>because I think up until now horror movies just haven't

0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:10.840
<v Speaker 2>gotten the accolades they deserve, and so maybe the people

0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.720
<v Speaker 2>who unless you were already a star coming into it,

0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:16.719
<v Speaker 2>you don't necessarily get known. Your face is known, but

0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:18.320
<v Speaker 2>your name isn't known as much.

0:04:18.360 --> 0:04:21.000
<v Speaker 1>But uh director, oh yeah, but I'll saying they elevate

0:04:21.040 --> 0:04:23.440
<v Speaker 1>these movies with their performances. Know their name or not,

0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:26.240
<v Speaker 1>like we always say, justin long when we see them.

0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:28.960
<v Speaker 1>It's just like a warm blanket. Okay, we're gonna be okay,

0:04:29.279 --> 0:04:29.839
<v Speaker 1>it's so true.

0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:31.839
<v Speaker 2>All right. The director is Parker Finn on this. And

0:04:31.880 --> 0:04:34.360
<v Speaker 2>the Rotten Tomato score actually a little lower than I

0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:37.440
<v Speaker 2>would have thought, eighty percent, still really really good for

0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:40.400
<v Speaker 2>Rotten Tomatoes. And the audience score is pretty much in

0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:43.040
<v Speaker 2>line with the critics at seventy seven percent.

0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:45.960
<v Speaker 1>All right. The critic consensus as well, here this is

0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:50.080
<v Speaker 1>how I guess how do they come up with this?

0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:52.839
<v Speaker 1>Are they just kind of aggregating they I.

0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:54.400
<v Speaker 2>Don't know, but I always like it, and I always

0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:55.560
<v Speaker 2>feel like it kind of nails it.

0:04:55.600 --> 0:04:57.560
<v Speaker 1>So it's kind of a consensus here among the critics.

0:04:57.560 --> 0:05:00.920
<v Speaker 1>It says deeply creepy visuals and a standout Socy Bacon

0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:06.000
<v Speaker 1>further elevates smiles on settling exploration of trauma, adding up

0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:10.480
<v Speaker 1>to the rare feature that satisfyingly expands on a short

0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:13.200
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know about the short story it came from.

0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:15.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh I didn't know that either, but so many of

0:05:15.680 --> 0:05:17.559
<v Speaker 2>them do. Stephen King a lot of his short stories

0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:20.080
<v Speaker 2>end up becoming phenomenal movies, so that makes sense. And

0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:23.359
<v Speaker 2>then the audience consensus, you may need to pay close

0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:26.599
<v Speaker 2>attention in order to keep up with the story. But

0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 2>fans of slow burning horror should leave smile with a grin.

0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:33.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it was slow burning. I felt like

0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:36.400
<v Speaker 2>it it picked up pretty quickly.

0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:38.080
<v Speaker 1>I didn't think it was hard to keep up with either,

0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:38.840
<v Speaker 1>but and.

0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:41.600
<v Speaker 2>I was scared the whole time with each twist and turn.

0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:44.560
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I didn't find it difficult to keep up with.

0:05:44.800 --> 0:05:46.680
<v Speaker 1>So I put this negative critic review at the top.

0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:49.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why, but somebody said I did not

0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:52.440
<v Speaker 1>have fun watching this, relying too much on jump scares

0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:56.360
<v Speaker 1>and not enough payoff. Huh. I think there's so many

0:05:56.360 --> 0:05:59.320
<v Speaker 1>scenes in this movie that don't involve jump scares but

0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:02.400
<v Speaker 1>make your skin crawl. Not because of violence, but I

0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:05.160
<v Speaker 1>mean email, the birthday party scene. Nobody died in that,

0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:08.320
<v Speaker 1>but you were so uncomfortable the time the woman comes

0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:13.000
<v Speaker 1>up to the window. There's no violence involved, but it's scary.

0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:16.240
<v Speaker 2>I love the Yes, I mean that is so good.

0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:22.360
<v Speaker 2>So wait, is this the same negative review? It's formally okay, okay,

0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:24.360
<v Speaker 2>this is a good one, all right. It's formal technique

0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:29.120
<v Speaker 2>transforms a film full of cliches into an average story

0:06:29.240 --> 0:06:31.880
<v Speaker 2>that manages to make an impact at the right moments

0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:36.000
<v Speaker 2>that seems a little harsh, though it's wow, you started

0:06:36.040 --> 0:06:39.800
<v Speaker 2>off negative, You're gonna end positive. I'm hoping we'll see

0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:44.040
<v Speaker 2>all right, smile. It is an intense horror film dealing

0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:48.640
<v Speaker 2>with survivor's guilt that exceeds all expectations. By the film's end,

0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:52.960
<v Speaker 2>I found my palm sweating, something I'd never experienced. I

0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.799
<v Speaker 2>totally get that, But it's funny. I didn't really feel

0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:58.760
<v Speaker 2>like the film was dealing with survivor's guilt.

0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.640
<v Speaker 1>Okay, then let's do the next one for you here,

0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:06.440
<v Speaker 1>the negative one soci began, gives what a film purporting

0:07:06.480 --> 0:07:10.000
<v Speaker 1>to take trauma seriously deserves. But when the only solution

0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:12.720
<v Speaker 1>to ridding oneself of specific trauma is to either kill

0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:16.040
<v Speaker 1>yourself or someone else, just how seriously can we take

0:07:16.080 --> 0:07:18.480
<v Speaker 1>it beyond it's overload of jump scares?

0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:22.520
<v Speaker 2>Wait, I didn't think this was a serious movie about trauma.

0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:24.400
<v Speaker 2>This is a horror film.

0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:28.080
<v Speaker 1>Would people find meaning and storylines? And yes, it's fine,

0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:31.880
<v Speaker 1>and people look for those things, but they seem to

0:07:31.920 --> 0:07:36.440
<v Speaker 1>be looking for something serious. But then they don't also

0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:38.400
<v Speaker 1>realize it's a horror movie. So we have to do

0:07:39.000 --> 0:07:40.960
<v Speaker 1>a twist. It seemed like everything should have been literal.

0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:44.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's fascinating to me when there's a movie because

0:07:44.600 --> 0:07:46.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm actually reading these off for the first time. You

0:07:46.280 --> 0:07:49.360
<v Speaker 2>put this together. I am so surprised because I thought

0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:51.720
<v Speaker 2>this movie was such a gem. I mean, obviously we

0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:54.480
<v Speaker 2>put it a number eight, so we loved this movie.

0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:57.320
<v Speaker 2>It's interesting to hear criticism of it in something I

0:07:57.360 --> 0:08:02.440
<v Speaker 2>would never have even consider another one. Though the ending

0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:06.320
<v Speaker 2>may go against the rather spelled out message, the film

0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:09.640
<v Speaker 2>has plenty of good characters, ideas, and best of all, scares.

0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:11.960
<v Speaker 2>I just don't think there was enough love for this

0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:13.000
<v Speaker 2>movie from the critics.

0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:16.560
<v Speaker 1>Well, I mean they're looking for something else of meaning

0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:19.280
<v Speaker 1>and examining trauma and the way we're supposed to do

0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:20.640
<v Speaker 1>it and the way you deal with it is not

0:08:20.760 --> 0:08:23.840
<v Speaker 1>by killing somebody or killing yourself. That's not how we

0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:26.440
<v Speaker 1>do it. Yeah, we know, because it's a horror movie.

0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:27.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know it.

0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:28.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's what I'm doing.

0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:30.880
<v Speaker 1>People look for a little different meanings. I put a

0:08:31.000 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 1>bunch of critic or excuse me, audience reviews in here

0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:35.079
<v Speaker 1>for a reason because there were a lot and a

0:08:35.080 --> 0:08:36.719
<v Speaker 1>lot of good win so I'm gonna blow through them.

0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:38.800
<v Speaker 1>One here is negative, but I also found it funny.

0:08:39.160 --> 0:08:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Not enough smiling, way too long between people smiling, creepy smiles.

0:08:43.320 --> 0:08:45.520
<v Speaker 2>I could have gotten more smiles. The more they did it,

0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:46.640
<v Speaker 2>the more I loved it.

0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:49.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, but they're effective when it happens. Oh,

0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:52.120
<v Speaker 1>it's great, all right. Smile is an incredibly creepy and

0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:55.600
<v Speaker 1>overall unsettling horror film. It creates, or it certainly rather

0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:58.600
<v Speaker 1>has a overall deeper meaning to the story of what

0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:01.920
<v Speaker 1>happens when someone witnesses the truly horrifying trauma and how

0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:04.720
<v Speaker 1>it sticks with you throughout your life and eats you

0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:06.080
<v Speaker 1>up from the inside.

0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:11.280
<v Speaker 2>Nope, I never ever considered anything other than something supernatural

0:09:11.840 --> 0:09:12.439
<v Speaker 2>and scary.

0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:17.200
<v Speaker 1>This is one you'll find funny. Simply says, stressful and boring?

0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Can those two things exist? Are you ever sitting around

0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:23.160
<v Speaker 1>stressed and bored?

0:09:23.960 --> 0:09:28.280
<v Speaker 2>No? You can't be both. That's so fun you oxymoron.

0:09:28.400 --> 0:09:31.959
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna love this one. Then. Smile presents a gripping

0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:35.520
<v Speaker 1>psychological horror rooted in dread rather than jump scares. Yet

0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:40.800
<v Speaker 1>it falters with a weak story foundation and underdeveloped character arcs.

0:09:41.320 --> 0:09:45.079
<v Speaker 1>While the visuals, sound design and unique camera work, bill suspense,

0:09:45.120 --> 0:09:50.040
<v Speaker 1>effectively repetitive effects, and a predictable ending slightly dull the impact.

0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:54.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm so sorry that Juilliard grad didn't like Smile? What

0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:58.440
<v Speaker 2>was that? Wow? Have you looked up in the dictionary?

0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:03.520
<v Speaker 2>Takes yourself too serious? Wait? You just picked all neggetive?

0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:07.680
<v Speaker 2>Was there any I don't like any good reviews with this. No.

0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:12.160
<v Speaker 1>The concept of this movie is impossibly unique.

0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:14.120
<v Speaker 2>Which is unique is never good if you if you

0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:17.160
<v Speaker 2>were going to date somebody and someone said, well, she's unique,

0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:18.680
<v Speaker 2>that's not a good review of.

0:10:18.559 --> 0:10:21.320
<v Speaker 1>Something it is. No, this is this is, folks, what

0:10:21.360 --> 0:10:23.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing with in the house. You don't wait to

0:10:23.160 --> 0:10:27.040
<v Speaker 1>see the rest. It is impossibly unique, which in itself

0:10:27.400 --> 0:10:30.880
<v Speaker 1>is a huge reason to be drawn in. If you're

0:10:31.000 --> 0:10:34.520
<v Speaker 1>a fan of ghosts and haunting type movies, this will

0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:38.920
<v Speaker 1>absolutely be right up your alley. Christ on sale. It

0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:41.319
<v Speaker 1>was a compliment another here Smiles the first horror film

0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:43.880
<v Speaker 1>to truly genuinely scare me.

0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:47.199
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, it is scary. I guess it's funny because

0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:51.480
<v Speaker 2>I do appreciate that somebody at least recognized that this

0:10:51.679 --> 0:10:55.960
<v Speaker 2>is about ghosts and haunting. I just I think, I

0:10:56.000 --> 0:10:58.920
<v Speaker 2>think that's great if you found a message about survivor's

0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:01.680
<v Speaker 2>guilt or grief. But I really do think the whole

0:11:01.679 --> 0:11:04.920
<v Speaker 2>point was that if she hadn't then been haunted herself,

0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:12.199
<v Speaker 2>she probably would have gotten over her patients very disturbing experience. Again,

0:11:12.280 --> 0:11:15.680
<v Speaker 2>we just I would never have gone there and thought

0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:17.559
<v Speaker 2>that that was what the movie should have or was

0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:18.440
<v Speaker 2>supposed to be about.

0:11:18.600 --> 0:11:19.800
<v Speaker 1>So why is it on the list for you? Why

0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:21.880
<v Speaker 1>is this one not just on the list it's in

0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:22.680
<v Speaker 1>number eight.

0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:25.680
<v Speaker 2>It is up there because it scared me in a

0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:28.000
<v Speaker 2>way that I have not been scared in a while.

0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:32.160
<v Speaker 2>With that creepy scare. It stays with you, that smile.

0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:34.560
<v Speaker 2>When I closed my eyes at night, I could see

0:11:34.600 --> 0:11:37.200
<v Speaker 2>it and it would scare me, like it's hard to

0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:40.000
<v Speaker 2>get an image like that out of your head. And

0:11:40.040 --> 0:11:41.640
<v Speaker 2>they just did such a good job of using it

0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:44.040
<v Speaker 2>effectively where you really did feel like, oh my god,

0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:46.280
<v Speaker 2>if someone looked at me, if I linger, or if

0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:49.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm in their presence, I could then catch that demon

0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:52.840
<v Speaker 2>or that demonic thing could be anyway. It really creeped

0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:54.880
<v Speaker 2>me out. So yes, I loved it.

0:11:54.880 --> 0:11:58.280
<v Speaker 1>It does I think to the creep factor it I mean,

0:11:58.320 --> 0:12:00.760
<v Speaker 1>it's a hell of a scenario. The only way you

0:12:00.800 --> 0:12:02.880
<v Speaker 1>can break this curse is if you got to kill

0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:07.160
<v Speaker 1>somebody or you have to die and just that idea, right,

0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:10.080
<v Speaker 1>like one of those impossible scenarios. What do you do?

0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:15.040
<v Speaker 1>The performances in this are off the charts. Ve got

0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:16.880
<v Speaker 1>cal Penn shows up again.

0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:19.880
<v Speaker 2>He has been showing up in some horror movies.

0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:23.640
<v Speaker 1>Another small but very significant role that he plays in

0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:25.360
<v Speaker 1>this one. And I do love. Yes, there are some

0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:28.240
<v Speaker 1>deaths and whatnot and some jump scares, but I love

0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:32.360
<v Speaker 1>that this movie disturbs you without violence. I love that

0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:35.320
<v Speaker 1>it does freak you out without anybody having to bleed

0:12:35.480 --> 0:12:36.880
<v Speaker 1>or there are a few.

0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:40.280
<v Speaker 2>People who do bleed though, and that's very freaky as well. Yes,

0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:40.880
<v Speaker 2>I agree.

0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:42.600
<v Speaker 1>Well, folks, stay with us here just a second. We'll

0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:44.959
<v Speaker 1>tell you if this movie is for you, and we'll

0:12:44.960 --> 0:12:47.720
<v Speaker 1>also tell you if it's not for you. And of

0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:51.920
<v Speaker 1>course always the drum roll, Excited to see what food

0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:55.200
<v Speaker 1>and drink pairings Robaka has come up with this time.

0:12:55.360 --> 0:13:07.560
<v Speaker 2>Stay here, Welcome back to Amy and TJ, where we

0:13:07.640 --> 0:13:12.360
<v Speaker 2>are talking about number eight on our Halloween horror hit list. Smile.

0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:16.960
<v Speaker 2>This is the original twenty twenty two, and this movie

0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:21.840
<v Speaker 2>stays with you, just a creepy, demonic smile that just

0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:26.199
<v Speaker 2>ends up being the undoing of everyone who sees it.

0:13:25.160 --> 0:13:29.200
<v Speaker 2>It's quite the movie, and it was well reviewed, and

0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:32.840
<v Speaker 2>it did amazing amazing at the box office. Is now streaming,

0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:34.680
<v Speaker 2>and if you like it, you can actually keep on

0:13:34.760 --> 0:13:38.720
<v Speaker 2>watching Smile too, because we actually highly recommend the sequel,

0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:42.000
<v Speaker 2>which doesn't always happen. So this is a great COMBA

0:13:42.080 --> 0:13:43.560
<v Speaker 2>waiting for Smile three, though.

0:13:45.120 --> 0:13:47.320
<v Speaker 1>I think they've okayed, I really I think they do.

0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:49.959
<v Speaker 1>I do think a Smile three in the works.

0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:53.200
<v Speaker 2>All right, So who is this for? I think we

0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:56.520
<v Speaker 2>think this is for everybody, as long as if you

0:13:56.720 --> 0:13:59.360
<v Speaker 2>don't want to get too scared by those images of

0:13:59.360 --> 0:14:01.200
<v Speaker 2>the creepy smile, you can just cover your eyes for

0:14:01.200 --> 0:14:01.760
<v Speaker 2>a little while.

0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:04.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this is a movie. You don't necessarily want to

0:14:05.000 --> 0:14:06.880
<v Speaker 1>run out and you're going to be grossed out. But

0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:09.520
<v Speaker 1>every once in a while it's fun to want to

0:14:09.559 --> 0:14:13.280
<v Speaker 1>squint or cover your face because something's scaring you just enough.

0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:14.600
<v Speaker 1>This is a fun experience.

0:14:14.679 --> 0:14:16.560
<v Speaker 2>You've seen me doing that all the time. Somehow I

0:14:16.559 --> 0:14:18.920
<v Speaker 2>feel safer if my hand is in front of my face,

0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:21.320
<v Speaker 2>even though I can see through my fingers. You just

0:14:21.320 --> 0:14:25.640
<v Speaker 2>feel protected. But yes, this right, and you say this

0:14:25.680 --> 0:14:26.960
<v Speaker 2>is for fans of it follows.

0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:30.160
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember that horror movie? That horror movie. It's

0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:33.000
<v Speaker 1>a cult favorite, but yeah, that kind of concept of

0:14:33.040 --> 0:14:38.240
<v Speaker 1>passing something along to break a curse and yes, time

0:14:38.440 --> 0:14:40.960
<v Speaker 1>ticking down all that. If you like that kind of concept.

0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:43.240
<v Speaker 2>Wait, you just reminded me of one of my favorite

0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:47.000
<v Speaker 2>horror movies with Denzel Washington and he witnesses an execution

0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:54.080
<v Speaker 2>and the guy sings, time is on your side, fallen.

0:14:54.200 --> 0:14:56.200
<v Speaker 2>That's the name of it. It's so good. But it's

0:14:56.200 --> 0:15:00.520
<v Speaker 2>the same concept. The evil spirit jumps from person to

0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:03.400
<v Speaker 2>person and oh my god, it's I'd never realized that,

0:15:03.440 --> 0:15:05.680
<v Speaker 2>but yes, it reminds me of that. Who was it

0:15:05.720 --> 0:15:06.000
<v Speaker 2>not for.

0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:10.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, anybody who's kind of creeped out a little easily

0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:16.120
<v Speaker 1>by ghosts and hauntings and spirits and not necessarily possession.

0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:17.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't think this is.

0:15:17.160 --> 0:15:19.040
<v Speaker 2>There's a little bit of possession.

0:15:18.720 --> 0:15:20.760
<v Speaker 1>Though, with this matter of passing this thing along.

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:23.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean it's a possession. Actually it is possession. If

0:15:23.440 --> 0:15:25.480
<v Speaker 2>this one creeps yet, you're forced to do things you

0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:28.640
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't ordinarily do in this movie.

0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:35.520
<v Speaker 1>It's just the one act, isn't it at the end. Yeah, okay, yeah,

0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:38.320
<v Speaker 1>we don't want to give too much away who it's

0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:41.760
<v Speaker 1>not for if you need like a little comedic break,

0:15:42.280 --> 0:15:44.680
<v Speaker 1>if you need just something to break up the tension.

0:15:44.800 --> 0:15:47.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember a moment this, even cow Penn is

0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:47.800
<v Speaker 1>not funny.

0:15:47.920 --> 0:15:50.040
<v Speaker 2>No, no, yeah, that's a very good point. You might

0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:51.840
<v Speaker 2>think that that would have been a moment, but it wasn't.

0:15:51.960 --> 0:15:54.960
<v Speaker 2>This is a horror drama, thriller, it's not. There's no

0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:56.920
<v Speaker 2>comedy in it. That's a really good point if you're

0:15:56.920 --> 0:16:00.840
<v Speaker 2>looking for anything, it's not. It's fun in a scary way.

0:16:00.920 --> 0:16:04.400
<v Speaker 2>Like if getting or being scared is fun to you,

0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:07.440
<v Speaker 2>which it is to us, then that's how it's fun. Yes,

0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:12.920
<v Speaker 2>but it's not necessarily a blast exactly. But man, it

0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:18.640
<v Speaker 2>leaves you feeling something. I would not watch this alone,

0:16:18.760 --> 0:16:21.080
<v Speaker 2>and I do think this could be a fun group setting.

0:16:21.400 --> 0:16:24.600
<v Speaker 2>Certainly would want to be with my significant other for sure.

0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Wow, okay, we can leave it blank. What is your

0:16:30.240 --> 0:16:32.120
<v Speaker 1>food here?

0:16:32.120 --> 0:16:34.560
<v Speaker 2>It is? I actually did a little thinking on this one.

0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:37.360
<v Speaker 2>So you're watching smile, so we want to just make

0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:39.280
<v Speaker 2>sure that we're all good, because you know, you're going

0:16:39.320 --> 0:16:41.160
<v Speaker 2>to be playing with the person or the people are

0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:43.920
<v Speaker 2>you're with smiling at them creepily, So you don't want

0:16:44.360 --> 0:16:46.320
<v Speaker 2>anything staining your teeth or in your teeth. So no

0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:49.880
<v Speaker 2>red wine completely out. I'd stick with white wine or champagne.

0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:52.160
<v Speaker 2>Fine with beer two and then maybe a crue de

0:16:52.200 --> 0:16:55.360
<v Speaker 2>tape platter with a ranch dip, because celery, carrots, all

0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:57.600
<v Speaker 2>that are really good for keeping your teeth white and

0:16:57.680 --> 0:16:58.560
<v Speaker 2>clean and all of that.

0:16:58.640 --> 0:16:59.320
<v Speaker 1>I look this up.

0:16:59.360 --> 0:17:03.720
<v Speaker 2>It's true. Dentist suggest you eat raw vegetables or raw fruit,

0:17:04.160 --> 0:17:06.480
<v Speaker 2>but you get into the berries, they could stain your teeth,

0:17:06.520 --> 0:17:09.120
<v Speaker 2>so stay away from those. A cheese plate is good,

0:17:09.400 --> 0:17:13.000
<v Speaker 2>and maybe some grapes, and now your teeth are shiny

0:17:13.440 --> 0:17:16.280
<v Speaker 2>and clean and white and ready to smile.

0:17:18.600 --> 0:17:20.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know where to begin with you on

0:17:20.680 --> 0:17:22.960
<v Speaker 1>this one. Let's just go back to that moose crunch

0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:24.520
<v Speaker 1>popcorn or something, what was it?

0:17:25.040 --> 0:17:30.080
<v Speaker 2>Moose crunch popcorn, and we're gonna have some at one

0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:31.840
<v Speaker 2>point before Halloween.

0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:32.879
<v Speaker 1>And I just went back and asked the vine, and

0:17:32.920 --> 0:17:34.480
<v Speaker 1>I had to say it five times, like what the

0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:42.080
<v Speaker 1>hell are you talking about? Yes, next movie almost belongs

0:17:43.080 --> 0:17:49.040
<v Speaker 1>in our classics episode because it's a part of a

0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:53.320
<v Speaker 1>huge horror franchise that I'm surprised a lot of people

0:17:53.400 --> 0:17:54.760
<v Speaker 1>still aren't that familiar with.

0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:57.640
<v Speaker 2>You know what, that is a very good tease, because

0:17:57.800 --> 0:18:02.280
<v Speaker 2>I was brought into this frand tries after I started

0:18:02.359 --> 0:18:07.480
<v Speaker 2>dating you, and I too cannot believe that I had

0:18:07.520 --> 0:18:10.880
<v Speaker 2>to catch up and missed all of these amazing movies

0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:15.520
<v Speaker 2>so that, yes, we could enjoy this latest rendition, which

0:18:15.640 --> 0:18:18.720
<v Speaker 2>is going to be number seven on our list. So

0:18:18.760 --> 0:18:21.639
<v Speaker 2>thanks for listening everyone. I made me Robock alongside TJ. Holmes.

0:18:21.720 --> 0:18:22.440
<v Speaker 1>We'll talk to you soon.
