1
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: Hey, welcome to Weird House Cinema. This is Rob Lamb.

2
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:13,039
Speaker 1: We have another episode from the past for you here today.

3
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: This one originally published six thirty, twenty twenty three. In it,

4
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:23,080
Speaker 1: we cover the Ramsey Brothers nineteen eighty four film Purana Mandar.

5
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: This one is a lot of fun. This was our

6
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 1: first dive into Bollywood horror. I say first, we haven't

7
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: actually done a second Bollywood horror film yet. So as

8
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,479
Speaker 1: we mentioned in this episode, if you have suggestions Ramsey

9
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: Brothers pictures or other examples of Bollywood horror or science

10
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 1: fiction that we should cover, write in with your suggestions. Okay,

11
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: let's go ahead and jump right in.

12
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 2: Welcome to Stuff to Blow your Mind, a production of iHeartRadio.

13
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: Hey you welcome to Weird House Cinema.

14
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 3: This is Rob Lamb and this is Joe McCormick.

15
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: Today. This is an exciting intrigue in the Weird House

16
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: Cinema catalog because we are going to be covering our

17
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: first film from India. It's always fun when we can

18
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: dive into a new film culture, a new national film tradition.

19
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 1: And I know for me personally Indian cinema, Bollywood in particular,

20
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 1: this is a whole area of film that I really

21
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 1: don't have much of any exposure to. So I was

22
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:41,199
Speaker 1: excited to watch this movie research it a bit because

23
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: not only is it is it Bollywood, it is Bollywood horror.

24
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: We're going to be talking about Purana mandir a if

25
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,919
Speaker 1: not only a horror movie, but like the horror movie

26
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: from India from nineteen eighty four.

27
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 3: This is also my first full viewing of a Bollywood movie.

28
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 3: I've watched a lot of clips from them before. Often,

29
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 3: like people will clip out really great musical numbers from

30
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 3: them and put them online, so I've seen plenty of those,

31
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 3: but yeah, this was the first time I've seen the

32
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,519
Speaker 3: whole thing. But man, this movie was mostly great, at

33
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 3: some points awful, and really got my mind cranking about

34
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 3: the what it means to have musical numbers in a film.

35
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: Yes, because one of the if you don't know anything,

36
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: or you don't know much about Indian cinema and Bollywood

37
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,959
Speaker 1: in particular, you may know that there are musical numbers.

38
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: It's a big song and dance numbers. And I think

39
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 1: at times this can be like knowing this can be

40
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: kind of like a barrier to entry. You might think, well,

41
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm up for that. I mean,

42
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: I'm not a musical fan. Or even if you decide, oh,

43
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: well there's a horror genre, I want to get into that,

44
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: but then you realize there are musical numbers, maybe you're

45
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: going to hold back. But yeah, it's interesting to sort

46
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: of break that down, like, well, how different is that

47
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: from anything we watch over here? You know, we have

48
00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: this have a genre of musical obviously it goes in

49
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: various directions, but also we have strong musical segments in

50
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: various pictures where you'll feature a particular track. It just

51
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: maybe you don't have characters actually singing that song.

52
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 3: Yes, I agree with all of that. I mean it

53
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 3: really got me thinking, why don't American horror movies tend

54
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 3: to have musical numbers in them? And if they did,

55
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 3: why would we say, well, actually, this is just a

56
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 3: totally different genre now it is a musical. Why couldn't

57
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 3: all genres have musical numbers, Because, as you say, music

58
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 3: features in other movies, diagetic and non diegetic music features

59
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 3: in as long as the characters aren't singing, it's not

60
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 3: a musical. But there's no particular reason I think of why.

61
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 3: The fact that characters do sing in a movie should

62
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: make that a separate genre from whatever the narrative content is.

63
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 3: So yeah, I think we should have more fantasy, sci

64
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 3: fi movies, whatever, horror movies that have characters singing songs,

65
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 3: because songs are great. Now that I've experienced a Bollywood film,

66
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 3: it in no way takes away from my enjoyment of

67
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 3: this as a cheesy horror movie, and I don't really

68
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 3: see why you would resist. I think maybe there's one

69
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 3: impulse that says, like musical numbers could take away from

70
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 3: the seriousness of the film. There's another that says it

71
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 3: could take away from the quote realism. I'd say, if

72
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 3: you're overly concerned with either of those, maybe you shouldn't

73
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 3: be making a horror movie.

74
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: I think another sort of barrier to entry, or sort

75
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: of expectation is that might be for many and it

76
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: was kind of this way for me. Is I expected

77
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: going into a musical number to be clunkier and take

78
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:44,039
Speaker 1: me out of the picture more. And there are sections

79
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 1: of the film that do manage to take me out

80
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: of the picture and are clunky, but the musical numbers,

81
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 1: like you get the impression like this is down to

82
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: like an art, just in Indian cinema in general, and

83
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: so if a movie's going into a musical number, they

84
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: know what they're do doing, like you're gonna have a

85
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,559
Speaker 1: smooth takeoff and landing with the emotional arc of whatever

86
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,039
Speaker 1: that particular song happens to be.

87
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 3: Every time a song kicked in, I was like, Okay,

88
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 3: now we're cooking. Even the kind of sad, slower paced songs.

89
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, because it's not coming out of nowhere, It's

90
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: coming out of what's going on emotionally with the characters,

91
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 1: or especially towards the end of this picture, with like

92
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 1: the driving nature of the plot.

93
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 3: Oh yes, the human Sacrifice song I think was my

94
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 3: favorite song in the movie.

95
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 1: All right, So again, this was my first Bollywood film.

96
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: I'd never watched one in its entirety, like you had

97
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: seen some clips, so I had to do a little

98
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 1: extra reading about everything. There's a lot of things about

99
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 1: Bollywood cinema that I was not familiar with and just

100
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: did not know about. So, for instance, bear with me

101
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 1: if you already knew all of this. But when we

102
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: talk about Bollywood cinema, we're talking about films specifically coming

103
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 1: out of the Mumbai Film industry Mumbai formerly known as Bombay.

104
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 1: You get it, like Bombay plus Hollywood equals Bollywood. And

105
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: while it's perhaps the most well known internationally of the

106
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: various Indian film centers, Indian cinema is not a monolith

107
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 1: like India itself. India cinema consists of various languages and

108
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: cultures and in the different cinematic traditions and centers have

109
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:26,280
Speaker 1: like different strengths, different histories and so forth. So some

110
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: of the various extras on the disc or discs that

111
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: we looked at for this as well as some articles,

112
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: it was a real learning experience for me to familiarize

113
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 1: myself somewhat with this. I mean it goes beyond genre

114
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: with this, just whole realm of cinema.

115
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 3: By the way, just as one example of other film

116
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 3: subcultures of India, I know, there is also the so

117
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 3: called Tollywood, which refers to to Hollywood with a tea,

118
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 3: referring to films made in the Telugu language, which is

119
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 3: one of the many languages of India.

120
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And then likewise you have in Pakistan you

121
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 1: have Lollywood that is centered in Lahore. I didn't know

122
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: anything about Lollywood either until I started absorbing some of

123
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: these extras on these discs. But this film Parana Mandha

124
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: from eighty four is very much Bollywood. It is a

125
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 1: Bollywood film, it is a Bollywood horror film, and it's

126
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: going to be interesting to discuss exactly what all of

127
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 1: that means, because, to a very large degree, the filmmakers here,

128
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: the Ramsey Brothers, are pushing into an area that had

129
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: traditionally been less successful and more of fringe within Bollywood cinema.

130
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: But still it's going to have things in it that

131
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 1: are very much part of the Bollywood blueprint, and that

132
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: includes a compelling story of starcrossed lovers, a fair amount

133
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: of family melodrama, multiple music numbers. Now this was interesting.

134
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: I was looking at an excer where was an interview

135
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: with a critic Omar Khan, and it out that eight

136
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: or so musical numbers per movie is pretty standard.

137
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 3: Oh so this seems under the average, right. I think

138
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 3: there were maybe five in this movie?

139
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: Is that right? I lost count after a little while,

140
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: just because I'm not used to seeing any in my heart,

141
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: but I saw something where he was talking about a

142
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: later Ramsey Brothers film where he's like, well, there are

143
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: only four musical numbers in this which may seem like

144
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: a lot too outsiders, but like really it's like a

145
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 1: half load. But on top of the music, on top

146
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: of the horror, which we'll get to, we also have

147
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: martial arts action, you got a little dancing. You've got

148
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: some comedic segments which we're probably not going to talk

149
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 1: about too much other than to say they are awful.

150
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 1: But all of this comes together into what felt to

151
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: me it's kind of like a circus, right. It's like

152
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: you go to a circus. They're going to be a

153
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: number of acts. You may not be there primarily to

154
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: see the clowns. You may be there to see the

155
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: trapeze act, but the clowns are going to be there

156
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: because somebody came with the expectation of clowns. Within talk

157
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: of Bollywood film in particular, i've seen this described as

158
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,359
Speaker 1: Massala film. That is a reference to the spice blend.

159
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: You know, you're going to the theater to see this show,

160
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: and by golly, it needs to deliver a little something

161
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: for everyone. A little of this spice, a little of that,

162
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: all under the big top of cinema.

163
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 3: Now, if it sounds like that's a lot to fit

164
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 3: into one movie. It is. This is a long movie.

165
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 3: This is definitely the longest movie we've covered on Weird House, right.

166
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, it beats out Blade by twenty minutes, which I

167
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 1: think is it's important to keep that in mind because

168
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: it's not absurdly long like they are longer. Plenty of

169
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 1: longer Bollywood films, and there are plenty of longer Western

170
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: films as well. Avatar two is longer than Piranha Mander,

171
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 1: so you know, don't necessarily let the length, you know,

172
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: keep you away from these films. And there's an intermission too,

173
00:09:58,960 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: so you got that.

174
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 3: Going for Love an intermission.

175
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: Now, the disc we watched this on and I'll give

176
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 1: a full mention of that and just a bit here

177
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 1: has an introduction from Indian horror expert Tim Paxton. He

178
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: provides the intro and he points out that Parana Mandir

179
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: is one of the most important films in Bollywood history

180
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 1: and probably the most important film in the history of

181
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: Indian horror cinema specifically. In one of the interesting things

182
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: here is produced on a very modest budget, but it

183
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: was a colossal hit. I was looking at some of

184
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: the numbers and if I was doing my math correctly,

185
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: it multiplied its budget in revenue on the scale of

186
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: something like Rocky or Blair Witch Project like that level

187
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: of success. Just did an amazing business.

188
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 3: Have you read anything from somebody who knows about the

189
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,959
Speaker 3: Bollywood market like what audience has responded to so much

190
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 3: about this movie in particular? Like why was it so popular?

191
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 1: Well, Omar Khan gets into this a little bit on

192
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 1: some of the extras from this Blu ray set, and

193
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: a lot of it kind of comes down to luck,

194
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: you know, Like the Ramses at this point had been

195
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: pumping out horror content since seventy two, I believe, and

196
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: none of those films had certainly had anything like this success.

197
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 1: But they were out there. It was on the fringes,

198
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: you know, And so I mean, I guess part of

199
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: it is like by this point they definitely knew what

200
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: they were doing with a number of these elements. They

201
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: knew how to put together things, they knew how to

202
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: do them a sola film offering, So they did have

203
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 1: a little bit for everybody. And I don't know, it

204
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 1: was just like the right time, Like audience has just

205
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: really responded to it. And he described it as being

206
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 1: like a generational date movie. Like if you were going

207
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: to cinemas in India during this time period, you saw

208
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: this movie and it was also he points out, you know,

209
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 1: probably going to be especially for how mainstream it became.

210
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,440
Speaker 1: It was offering things people just hadn't seen before because

211
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: Western horror films could only really enter into like the

212
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: general zeitgeist there so much because they weren't coming in

213
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 1: on like satellite TV or anything. They were they were

214
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 1: coming in on it. They weren't being shown in the

215
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 1: theater for the most part. They were coming in on

216
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: VHS tapes, and those were in rare you know, and

217
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: there were those were hard to get. Only certain people

218
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: had access to those. And so this is a film

219
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: that has some really scary stuff in it, and you

220
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 1: can just imagine how much more scary it is if

221
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 1: you didn't have direct exposure to say The Exorcist or

222
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: the first Evil Dead movie or something like that.

223
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 3: I can also see how it would be such a

224
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 3: great date movie since it has you know, it's like,

225
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 3: it's like scary so the classic cliches. It gets you

226
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,079
Speaker 3: hugging clothes because you know, because the sam reas out

227
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 3: here are about to do something evil.

228
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 1: But it's also got a great love story. Yeah yeah,

229
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: you got again. You've got a romance at the heart

230
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 1: of it. You've got family melodrama the heart of it.

231
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: You've got the music, You've got the comedy, You've got

232
00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: the dancing girl. You've got all these things that that

233
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 1: that any given viewer is going to be wanting to

234
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: see out of a Bollywood film. But it's also offering

235
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: something that is new, and that the newness ends up

236
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 1: being key because this kicks off a horror boom in India.

237
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,439
Speaker 1: There the Ramsey Brothers end up coming out a lot

238
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: of additional horror films. They have competitors, and also, you know,

239
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,719
Speaker 1: other folks just jump in to try and ride that bandwagon,

240
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 1: and it actually they end up writing it out by

241
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: something like I want to say ninety two, so the

242
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 1: boom doesn't last too long. But during that time, everybody

243
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: gets in there and and some of the films are

244
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 1: supposed to be quite good, but there's a sort of

245
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 1: sameness to everything, and after a while people seen it

246
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: and it loses that new edge that this film seemed

247
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:43,679
Speaker 1: to have.

248
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 3: I think a similar thing happened with some of the

249
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 3: biggest money making horror films in the United States in

250
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 3: the eighties. Also kind of the slasher formula got repeated

251
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,319
Speaker 3: and played out to death.

252
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, or the or later on the speaking of blair Witch,

253
00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: the found footage formula, because you know, that's a case where,

254
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 1: for the most part, people hadn't really seen a film

255
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 1: like this. It was produced on a very low budget,

256
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: made tremendous money, and lots of folks jumped in there

257
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: to try and recreate that success, and god goodness, off

258
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 1: the top of my head, i'm not sure anybody really did, so, Yeah,

259
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: I think it's a it's a good comparison, though only

260
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 1: in terms of like sort of business and impact, not

261
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 1: so much style.

262
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 3: I think following the blair Witch model, the Paranormal Activity

263
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 3: franchise did pretty good, Okay, I think, hmmm, I'm trying

264
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 3: to think of another one. I don't know. Yeah, I mean,

265
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 3: the found footage style is obviously very appealing because it's

266
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 3: cheap to make. But when people were trying to just make,

267
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 3: you know, cash in on found footage movies with very

268
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 3: uninspired ideas, I think a lot of them missed out

269
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 3: on how creative the original blair Witch project actually was.

270
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and I mean that's that's kind of like

271
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 1: written across the horror genre. Wherever you look, right, a

272
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 1: successful horror movie comes out and somebody's gonna think I

273
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: can do that. Horror is easy. Horror films can't be

274
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 1: that hard to do, and there is an art to it.

275
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 1: There is a certain amount of style, and then there's

276
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: a certain amount of luck to hitting things just right.

277
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: And that's what Perana Mandir seems to have done. Let's

278
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 1: see just a couple of other notes. Paxton points out

279
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: that this movie, which deals specifically with a resurrected, evil

280
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 1: decapitated wizard, does draw heavily on two prior films, one

281
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: American in one Spanish nineteen fifty eight is The Thing

282
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: that Couldn't Die that stars Robin Hughes as the Wizard

283
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: Gideon Drew, and nineteen seventy two's Horror Rises from the

284
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: Tomb starring Paul Nashy as the Wizard Alaak Demarnac. This

285
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: is a film, of course, we discussed on Weird House Cinema.

286
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 3: I did not expect that. Yeah, Paul Nashy plays the Wizard.

287
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 3: He's actually part of like an evil source of or

288
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 3: power couple in Horror Rises from the Tomb, Right he

289
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 3: has like a white for a girlfriend who's also a

290
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 3: powerful wizard.

291
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean the thing about Paul Nashy films is

292
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 1: Paul Nashy monsters you're supposed to feel some sort of

293
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: sympathy for, you know, That's where he's coming from. He's

294
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 1: coming from that love of universal horror and sympathy for

295
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: the monster the wizard. In this film, Samri is unlovable.

296
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: He is just a complete monster. Every crime that is

297
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 1: committable he has done. We are not meant to have

298
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: any sympathy at all for Samri. And ultimately, I have

299
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 1: to say, even though the early stages of the film do,

300
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: like the historical opening does kind of mirror the opening

301
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 1: of Horizons from the Tomb, it ultimately goes in its

302
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: own direction as opposed to being anything like a clone

303
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 1: of that movie.

304
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 3: Well, on one hand, yes, I agree, Samri is not

305
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 3: sympathetic at all in terms of the narrative. He doesn't

306
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 3: have like a tragic love story or anything like that.

307
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 3: There's nothing likable about him except just his physical vibe.

308
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 3: Like the presence of the actor who plays Summary in

309
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 3: the opening is so cool.

310
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 1: Oh absolutely, Yeah. The performance here by aj Agarwal is

311
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: tremendous and this is a role that launched him as

312
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: like a true monster actor for Indian horror cinema.

313
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:19,359
Speaker 3: We'll have to come back to him.

314
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll come back to him for sure, because he's

315
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: at a light. There are long stretches of the film

316
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: where he's not there, but when he is there, he's tremendous. Right.

317
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: Just a couple other small points before we get to

318
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: the trailer. Basically the film is predominantly in Hindi, though

319
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: the characters do throw in a little English here and there,

320
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 1: and the action ventures into a rural setting, so you'll

321
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 1: hear some characters speaking another dialect or language. It's referenced

322
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: in the Hindi dialogue as well, but I couldn't find

323
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 1: an indicator of which language this is.

324
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 3: I noticed something interesting in the movie where a couple

325
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 3: of times somebody would say something in Hindi and then

326
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 3: they would say the same thing again in Dash, almost

327
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 3: as if for emphasis. And I don't know if that's

328
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 3: like something specific to Bollywood movies or just a quirk

329
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 3: of this movie in particular, or a convention of of

330
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 3: Hindi language in general. I don't know, but I thought

331
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 3: that was interesting.

332
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, with that, with that specifically and just generally out there,

333
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,439
Speaker 1: we'd love to hear from listeners after this episode. If

334
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 1: you have more experience with Bollywood cinema, if you, if

335
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 1: you speak Hindi, if you certainly, if you, if you

336
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: have experience with the theater, experience of going to these films,

337
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 1: all of that is on the table because I've heard

338
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 1: it pointed out that it's one thing to watch like

339
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 1: a Bollywood film or Bollywood horror film in your living

340
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 1: room by yourself. But that, of course was not how

341
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 1: they intended a film like this to be viewed. No,

342
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: this was to be viewed in the theater.

343
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 3: Can you imagine how much fun it would have been

344
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,400
Speaker 3: to see this in a pact theater of like young

345
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 3: people out on date night?

346
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 1: Oh yeah? And can you imagine how how afraid people were? Again,

347
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 1: if you hadn't seen many horror films and you had

348
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 1: to see Sammar I mean, he's he's terrifying almost all

349
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,160
Speaker 1: the time on the screen. He's at least unnerving, if

350
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 1: not just outright terrifying. All right, Well, I mean the

351
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: elevator pitch on this one is basically it's the biggest

352
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 1: Bollywood horror film of them all. It's the It's the

353
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 1: granddaddy of Bollywood horror films. It's your basic evil wizard,

354
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 1: multi generational family curse romance film with added music and comedy.

355
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,679
Speaker 1: We have a trailer here. I don't think we're going

356
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,439
Speaker 1: to play at all, but we'll play at least a

357
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 1: nice sampling of this so you can get sort of

358
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 1: an audio taste of what's ahead.

359
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:40,880
Speaker 4: May shut out of how many? How about all right?

360
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 1: Well, before we go any further, if you would like

361
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: to watch this movie for yourself, if you'd like to

362
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: check out here, go and see it and then come

363
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: back to the rest of the episode. Well, you don't

364
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: have to depend on some sort of weird stream to

365
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 1: view this film, uh, Because there's a wonderful Bollywood Horror

366
00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: limited edition box set that is out from Mondo Macabre.

367
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: And I checked out a couple of discs from this

368
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 1: the disc for this film and then a disc for

369
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 1: another movie that had some extras on it, and we

370
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 1: rented these discs from Atlanta's own videodrome rental store.

371
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 3: It's a great print, though it does warn you that

372
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 3: there will be some variable quality and different scenes of

373
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,959
Speaker 3: the movie due to just like storage issues with the

374
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 3: film over the years, so the restoration is a bit

375
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 3: patchy in places, but for the most part it looks great.

376
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's one particular I don't even know what to

377
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,639
Speaker 1: call it, but there's some sort of an error in

378
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: the final print that we have on the disc here

379
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: that has almost kind of a psychedelic quality to it,

380
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 1: and I didn't really I don't think i'd seen it

381
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 1: on a film before, this particular kind of noise. So

382
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 1: it's very watchable. Nothing in this gets in the way

383
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 1: of your enjoyment of the movie. All right, Well, let's

384
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 1: jump into the people involved here. The main ones to

385
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:08,120
Speaker 1: really highlight here are the Ramsey brothers, the directors. It's

386
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: impossible to discuss Indian horror cinema without discussing the Ramsey brothers. Again,

387
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: they had been doing this since seventy two, and this

388
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 1: is the movie that kicked off an enormous boom in

389
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 1: Indian cinema for horror, and even like contemporary horror movies,

390
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,680
Speaker 1: they still have connections to the work of the Ramsey

391
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 1: brothers here. Now, Ramsey Brothers, I think can at times

392
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: refer to just different sons and grandsons of f U Ramsey.

393
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,679
Speaker 1: But in particular the directors here are Shyam Ramsey and

394
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 1: Tulsi Ramsey. Shyam lived fifty two through twenty nineteen and

395
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 1: Tulsi lived nineteen forty four through twenty eighteen. Other Ramsey

396
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,719
Speaker 1: brothers would get in on the directing game at times,

397
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,479
Speaker 1: like Kishu and Kieran. But yeah, these are the main

398
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 1: two we're talking about. They're the ones who directed horror

399
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: films in the early seventies, with a nineteen seventy two film.

400
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 1: In the title for this one translates to two yards

401
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,360
Speaker 1: under the ground, so already like kind of a grim

402
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,439
Speaker 1: beginning there. They followed this up with a string of

403
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 1: horror and creature films. There's one from eighty two mat Kasaya.

404
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: I'm probably mispronouncing that, but it looks interesting to me

405
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: because it has some sort of like big creature water

406
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,320
Speaker 1: monster in it. I'm not sure this one is available

407
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 1: widely in the West, but I put it on my

408
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 1: radar because it looks interesting. Neat monster anyway. But anyway,

409
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: all of these films that they were putting out, these

410
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,959
Speaker 1: were outliers. The horror pictures just weren't viewed as culturally viable.

411
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: They weren't seen as potentially anything that would make money

412
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 1: at the box office, so it was more fringe stuff.

413
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 1: And you know a lot of these pictures, particularly Ramsey

414
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 1: productions at the time, they were also pushing boundaries of

415
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 1: what was accepted in Hindi cinema at the time. As again,

416
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 1: as omar Con points out, most Indian film viewers had

417
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: little or no exposure to Western horror films and Indian

418
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 1: horror films were barely a thing. In fact, I saw

419
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: an interview with aj Aguah, the main monster actor in

420
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: this picture, and he said that he didn't know the

421
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 1: difference between horror films and regular films before being cast

422
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: by the Ramses. Like that's how little horror was established

423
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:25,920
Speaker 1: in like the general audience's mind. But with this movie,

424
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,439
Speaker 1: again it hits it just the right time, takes off.

425
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 1: Nineteen eighty four becomes a huge hit, a generational date movie,

426
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,919
Speaker 1: as Con describes, it sets off this massive boom that

427
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 1: doesn't really subside till ninety two. The Ramses continue to

428
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 1: apply their trade, tons of competitors and imitators trying to

429
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 1: get in on the craze as well, until overexposure kicks

430
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: in and the Boom ties out. The Ramses followed this

431
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:57,360
Speaker 1: movie up with nineteen eighty five's Telephone nineteen eighty five's

432
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: three D Summary, which is obviously the Yeah, the three

433
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,119
Speaker 1: D sequel of sorts to this movie. Well, but I

434
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: thought the evil wizard was destroyed at the end of

435
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,119
Speaker 1: this movie. If an evil wizard makes you enough money,

436
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 1: there's no destroying him. He will come back. There's a

437
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: nineteen and I'm not Also, I haven't seen three D Samary.

438
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 1: I assume it's Samri because it's the title is the

439
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: name of the character. But you know, sometimes a movie

440
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 1: like this, maybe it's not a direct sequel. Maybe it's

441
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 1: a spiritual sequel. I'm not sure. But there are a

442
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 1: slew of interesting looking features that they came out with

443
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:38,440
Speaker 1: in the wake of Parana Mandhir, including Takhana from eighty six,

444
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 1: Verana from eighty eight, Pirani Haveli from eighty nine, and

445
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety's Bond Darwazo, which is said to be quite

446
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: good more of a traditional Dracula style film, and after that,

447
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: the well kind of drives up. One of their last

448
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:56,879
Speaker 1: big films, if not their last big film, was a

449
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety four movie titled Mahaka, which a number of

450
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 1: you might be familiar with because it is to be kind,

451
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 1: it is very inspired by Nightmare on Elm Street. It

452
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: is at least a strong homage to Nightmare on Elm

453
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 1: Street and features a Freddy Krueger esque character on the cover.

454
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: So I think this one has gotten some amount of traction.

455
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,959
Speaker 1: If nothing else, you might have seen some clips or

456
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 1: the poster art.

457
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 3: It does have a guy with knives for fingers.

458
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,479
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, yeah. And if you're not sure, like how

459
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: to spell that title and you want to look it up,

460
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: just do a search for like Bollywood Freddy Krueger and

461
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: you will. You'll find it all right. The screenplay on

462
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:40,120
Speaker 1: this one was written by another Ramsey, Kumar Ramsey, who

463
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 1: lived thirty six through twenty twenty one. He was the

464
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 1: screenwriter and a number of their films. This is one

465
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,199
Speaker 1: of those situations where you know the brothers and the

466
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,679
Speaker 1: family here they'll often draw in some of the same talent,

467
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 1: so this Ramsey also wrote Somari three D in a

468
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 1: movie called Guest House. There are also three other contributors

469
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 1: also credited here, but I couldn't find out much about them.

470
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: But there's a story credit, there's a dialogue credit, and

471
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: there's an assistant dialogue writer. All right, let's get into

472
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,679
Speaker 1: the cast. So we've talked about him already. But aj

473
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 1: Agarwall I believe Aj is short for Annarud. He was

474
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 1: born in nineteen forty nine. As of this recording is

475
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: still out there. I think he's retired now, but yes,

476
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 1: he plays our dark wizard of evil who's eventually going

477
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 1: to rise from the tomb and get his head back

478
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,880
Speaker 1: and go on a rampage. He only acted in three

479
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: Ramsey Brothers films. He played a monster in two of them,

480
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: in Barana Mandir of course, in the follow up Samari

481
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 1: three D or three D summary in eighty five. He

482
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 1: also played more of a traditional dracula in that nineteen

483
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 1: ninety film Band Do Waza, and he continued to act

484
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 1: through twenty ten. Is retired now but mostly just almost

485
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 1: exclusively in Hindi films. But he does have a role

486
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,120
Speaker 1: in Steven Summer's The Jungle Book from nineteen ninety four.

487
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:04,440
Speaker 1: I included a picture here for you, Joe. As you

488
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 1: can see, he's playing heavy of some sort in this.

489
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 1: He's standing next to the villain holding Lena Hetty by

490
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:14,199
Speaker 1: the arms.

491
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 3: Well, that's also Carrie Elwis. I know all three of

492
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 3: these actors. I don't think I would have recognized a

493
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 3: single one of them in the screenshots.

494
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they're very young. I mean, especially Lena. I

495
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,399
Speaker 1: wouldn't have recognized her. But anyway, yeah, he's in it.

496
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 1: He's very tall. He was like six four six', five,

497
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 1: so especially among a lot of, actors he's pretty. Towering

498
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 1: andy has just very pronounced. Features i've read this might

499
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,960
Speaker 1: have been due to like some sort of underlying medical

500
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 1: condition as well that sort of gave him pronounced facial. Features. Also, yeah,

501
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 1: again very tall and based ON i read an article

502
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: about him AND i was looking at an interview conducted with,

503
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: him and basically he made two goes at getting into

504
00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: acting before and after earning a civil engineering certificate or

505
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 1: degree of some, sort but at both times he didn't

506
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: have any. Luck until he had some sort of ill

507
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 1: health or injury while working In, muntumbai and he looked

508
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 1: even more haggard. Afterwards i'm not sure if he had

509
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: some sort of like facial bruising or whatever the case may,

510
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: be but someone came up to him and, said, hey

511
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 1: you look pretty. Tough you should be in. Movies and he's, like,

512
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 1: well that's What i've been trying to, do but nobody

513
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: will hire. Me and they, said, say, well you know,

514
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 1: what you need to go talk to The ramsey brothers

515
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 1: because they will give you a. Chance and so he.

516
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: Went he talked to The ramsey, brothers and The ramsey

517
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:39,720
Speaker 1: brothers at that point were apparently six months into Shooting Piranha,

518
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 1: mandir but they hadn't done any of the horror sequences.

519
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: YET i guess they didn't even have A samari. Castow

520
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 1: and they leaned heavily on masks and makeup in previous,

521
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 1: films but then in walks a man who who doesn't

522
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: need as much, makeup you, know and like He's we've

523
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: seen this in time and time again in various horror

524
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 1: cinema periods and, settings where somebody comes in and they

525
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 1: just have that unique look where you don't have to

526
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 1: do much to, them you, know just a subtle amount

527
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 1: of makeup and right lighting and the right lighting and

528
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: effects and you're already in the horror. Realm and that's

529
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 1: what he offered to them.

530
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 3: Here it's interesting, because as we were saying, earlier this

531
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 3: character is in no way likable or. Sympathetic they just

532
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 3: make him an absolute, demon like pure, evil not like

533
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 3: charismatic or, anything except in the opening sequence before he

534
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 3: gets transformed into a More frankenstein type. Creature the Human

535
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 3: somary evokes strong rock star. Charisma he has kind of

536
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 3: a Shaggy Keith richard's, haircut and the back of his shirt.

537
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 3: Sparkles it's got this Like Sequin wolfman. Motif it looks

538
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 3: kind of like Something David bowie would have. Worn and

539
00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 3: he's just like tall and has a kind ofind, of you,

540
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 3: know lead guitarist. POSTURE i don't, know he seems very.

541
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 1: Cool, yeah he's at least a head taller than everybody around.

542
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: Him at, times he kind of felt like he had

543
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 1: kind of A Boris karloff kind of of presence to,

544
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: him you, know and you, know and also reminds me

545
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 1: of various other you, know actors with unique. Appearances but,

546
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 1: yeah very strong screen presence from this. Guy and and

547
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: when he shows back, up he just keeps looking more

548
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: and more, monstrous and the, lighting the effects are always

549
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 1: just really on point whenever he's on. Screen so he's very.

550
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: Terrifying so That's. Somary that's our. Monster but to have

551
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: an effective, monster you have to have a bunch of

552
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 1: mortals that are in peril or cursed by seid. Monster

553
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 1: and so the next major character of note here Is

554
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:56,920
Speaker 1: Suman singh played By Ardi gupta's she's our HEROIN i

555
00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 1: guess you. Know she's the born into a long line

556
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 1: along cursed lineage of sings. Here it's a very charismatic.

557
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 1: Performance she's a lot of fun on the. Screen the actor, Here,

558
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 1: gupta would come back for THREE d summary and also

559
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 1: apparently produced a few films much, later including two thousand

560
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: And seven's A Mighty heart Starring Angelina.

561
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 3: Jolie, YEAH i Think Artie gupta is. Great she conveys

562
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 3: a lot of, emotion especially in the musical. Numbers THOUGH

563
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 3: i was, wondering do you know if the actors in

564
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 3: this movie sing their own parts in the musical numbers

565
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 3: or are they sort of lip singing along to professional.

566
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 1: Singers it is my, understanding and AGAIN i invite further

567
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 1: education On bollywood by anyone out there, Listening but it's

568
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 1: my understanding that it's almost it's usually not the actor

569
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: doing the singing that that's added, Later AND i think

570
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: that would make sense given that if you have if

571
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: there's no real division between films and, musicals it just

572
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 1: makes sense to do. That and of course this is

573
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 1: not unprecedented In western musicals as. WELL i MEAN i

574
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 1: think Of Oh, Brother We're Art, thou which is a tremendous,

575
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: musical But George clooney is not doing his own singing

576
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 1: in that.

577
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 3: Film and it works great in both. CASES i, MEAN i,

578
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 3: know sometimes for some reason people talk disparagingly about lip.

579
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 3: SYNCING i think they talk about it like that when

580
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 3: it's like a band is faking doing a live, performance

581
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 3: just like full on trying to trick people that they're playing.

582
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 3: Live but in a, movie, no there's no problem at.

583
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 1: ALL i like. It, Yeah AND i imagine there Are

584
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 1: bollywood films where at least some of the actors are

585
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 1: doing their own. SINGING i, mean it makes, sense BUT

586
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: i did not get a sense of that from looking

587
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 1: at the credits for this. Movie all, Right so we

588
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: Have suman Sing she's our. Heroine her, Father Thakhor singh

589
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 1: is played by Pra Deep, kumar who live nineteen twenty

590
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 1: five through two thousand and. One this Is suman's, father

591
00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 1: a loving but overly protective, fare but he's overly protected

592
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 1: for reasons that go beyond the norm and get into

593
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: the realm of, supernatural multi generational, curses as we'll. Discuss

594
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 1: But Kumar hero is a Veteran indian actor with credits

595
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 1: going back to the late nineteen. Forties apparently highly, regarded

596
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: though largely lacking in like highly successful. Roles he often

597
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: acted in period dramas and seems to have just always

598
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:27,440
Speaker 1: boasted a meticulously trimmed. Mustache just a, real, real gorgeous

599
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 1: and stylish mustache on this.

600
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 3: Man and it's a mustache of the thin, style WHICH

601
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 3: i feel like is hard to pull, off but it

602
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 3: looks good on.

603
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:38,399
Speaker 1: Him, yeah kind of like a swashbuckling Old hollywood kind

604
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 1: of a. Mustache. Yeah all, Right so we have the,

605
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 1: daughter we have the, father but now it's time to

606
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: talk about the daughter's secret, Boyfriend, sanjay played By Manish,

607
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 1: bell who was born in nineteen sixty. One he plays

608
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 1: a low born, photographer but he's, handsome he's a good.

609
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,839
Speaker 1: Lad you, know he's our lover. Boy this was only

610
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:01,360
Speaker 1: his fifth, credit but he went on to act in

611
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: more than one hundred.

612
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 3: PICTURES i think it's interesting that they try to what

613
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,319
Speaker 3: seemed to me to like fit in a very standard

614
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:12,840
Speaker 3: forbidden love, dynamic even though it's only like a red.

615
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:17,240
Speaker 3: Herring so, like for the first bit of the, Movie

616
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:22,359
Speaker 3: suman And sanjay understand That suman's father disapproves of their

617
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 3: relationship because she is a rich. Girl she's from a you,

618
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 3: know a high class, family and he's middle. Class he's

619
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 3: not rich like. Them so that seems like a very

620
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 3: standard kind of romance. Obstacle but then there's a twist

621
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 3: which is, like, oh, no actually he's opposed to their

622
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 3: romance because there's a curse on the family and if you,

623
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 3: know she gets, married she may one day have a,

624
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,400
Speaker 3: child and that means she will. Die, well actually she

625
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 3: will turn into like a witch and then. Die, yeah

626
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 3: but it seemed interesting that it's almost like they were

627
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 3: trying to fit like a second like short romance movie

628
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:57,359
Speaker 3: into the beginning of this.

629
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 1: Movie, well he lets viewers know where they. Stand it's

630
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:03,640

00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:10,280
Speaker 1: Bikers that doesn't really hold on to The shakespeare aspect

633
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: of the. Thing for the most, PART i guess it

634
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 1: comes back towards the, end but a little, bit but

635
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,760
Speaker 1: it's Still it gives you sort of an initial footing

636
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 1: on which to proceed with the. Picture or in the

637
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 1: case Of sons Of anarchy THE tv, series all, right

638
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:26,800
Speaker 1: we've got the, monster we've got the, father the, daughter

641
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 1: born nineteen fifty. Nine, yeah he plays a best, friend

642
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 1: martial arts and personal fitness. Enthusiast the actor here outside of,

643
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,479
Speaker 1: this is apparently well known In india for his role

644
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 1: in The MAHABARAT tv show that ran eighty eight through nineteen.

645
00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 1: Ninety he Played duri, o'hanna eldest of the, caravas one

646
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: of the two feuding houses in that. Epic he's also, written,

647
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: directed and, produced and is especially known for his negative.

648
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 1: Roles this is a TERMINOLOGY i was not familiar with

649
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 1: UNTIL i started reading about Different bollywood. Actors but, apparently

650
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 1: like when you talk about somebody being like a great

651
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 1: villain or being great at villain, roles you talk about

652
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 1: how they're great at playing negative, roles WHICH i thought

653
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,400
Speaker 1: was an interesting turn of phrase.

654
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 3: There SO i Thought Punita sar was one of the

655
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 3: highlights of the. Film, actually my favorite stuff about this

656
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 3: movie is sort of like the, tall macho guys in.

657
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 3: It SO i like the. VILLAIN i Love anon a Nod,

658
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:36,360
Speaker 3: Is so he's, yeah he's the main dude's best. Friend

659
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 3: but in a, way it's a movie where the side

660
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 3: the so called, sidekick actually does most of the. Heroism

661
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 3: it's Like Big trouble In Little, china and every Time

662
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 3: anon shows up to save the, day it is it's increasingly.

663
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:53,720
Speaker 3: Hilarious there's like an amazing scene Where sanjay is getting

664
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 3: beaten up by twelve guys or you, know they're all

665
00:37:56,680 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 3: were like these guys in fancy red footman's, uniforms these red,

666
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 3: jackets and they're all ganging up On, sanjay and then

667
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,799
Speaker 3: suddenly A noond appears sort of over the top of a.

668
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,839
Speaker 3: Mountain he's, like comes up on this ridge overlooking the whole,

669
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 3: scene and he's, like, oh my, friend and then charges

Speaker 3: down into the fracas to just slam, me just like

671
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 3: beat beat all these guys, up which he can do

672
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:23,920
Speaker 3: pretty much single. Handedly he is the center of a

673
00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:27,120
Speaker 3: number of martial arts scenes THAT i think are actually quite.

674
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:31,440
Speaker 3: Good and there's also a really funny scene where they

675
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,160
Speaker 3: have a they're on a road trip and they have a.

676
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,719
Speaker 3: Car they have a flat, tire and it's clear that

677
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 3: they staged this just so a. Nod it could be, like,

678
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 3: hey it's no problem that we don't have a, car,

679

680
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:50,800
Speaker 1: Tire, yeah and he's, yeah he's he's he's basically the

681
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 1: the the action star of the, film While sonjay is

682
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:58,080

Speaker 1: he's got these really long, legs so he's one of these.

685
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 1: Guys when he's throwing, kicks it's like he manages to

686
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 1: kick around you and then kick you on the other

687
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,680

Speaker 1: into martial arts and personal fitness and more into love,

703
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:05,239

704
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,880
Speaker 1: Film you, know it's a fun. PERFORMANCE i think she

705

706
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:12,879
Speaker 1: but she does. Shine oh, yeah she's.

00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:55,000
Speaker 1: nineteen fifty. One, basically he's just a scarred woodcutter who

00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,200
Speaker 1: really would like a bit of that. Treasure but the

723

Speaker 1: main grounds keeper at the haunted mansion where everyone ends

724
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: up is this Character durjon played By sadashev A'm rapokur

725
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:12,359
Speaker 1: who lived nineteen fifty through twenty. Fourteen there's something about his.

726
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,799
Speaker 1: Performance at FIRST i didn't pick up on, it but you,

727
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 1: know it has kind of like a nice haunted. Vibe

728
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:21,359
Speaker 1: he has kind of haunted eyes and WHEN i looked him,

729
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 1: up apparently he made a name for himself playing villains

730
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:28,880
Speaker 1: or negative ones or negative roles in various. Films in,

731
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:32,920
Speaker 1: FACT i saw a twenty Fourteen Indian express article that

732
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: called him Quote bollywood's most memorable. Villain so oh.

733
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:40,799
Speaker 3: Interesting, yeah not a villain in this, though, no just.

734
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 1: More of he's the, local that, is the haunted local

735
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: who knows more about goings on than the main characters

736
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 1: in the.

737
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 3: Film at one, point he quite crucially hides a trident

738
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 3: in a, chandelier AND i did not understand why he did,

739
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:56,880
Speaker 3: that but it comes in.

740
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 1: Later he just knew that it would come in handy.

741
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 1: Later somebody's going to need to drop this chandelier. Sometimes, yeah,

742
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 1: SOMETIMES i guess it's just the film logic of the. Thing,

743
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:07,799
Speaker 1: now there are a lot of other actors in, this

744
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:09,359
Speaker 1: And i'm not going to go through all of them.

745
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:13,000
Speaker 1: HERE i will say that we do have a bandit

746
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 1: character Name MACHAAR i, believe and he is played by

747
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:23,759
Speaker 1: this actor who went by the Moniker Jack. Deep this

748
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,160
Speaker 1: is An indian actor and comedian who appeared in more

749
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 1: than four hundred, films INCLUDING i think some Various Ramsey brothers.

750
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:34,320
Speaker 1: Films this is our sort OF i don't, Know Benny

751
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:39,200
Speaker 1: hill esque misogynistic slapstick specialist that is brought in for

752
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 1: at least, two maybe three long segments of the film

753
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:47,319
Speaker 1: that are concerned only with, comedy that do not really

754
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: connect much at all with the rest of the film

755
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 1: and are really difficult to.

756
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:55,200
Speaker 3: Watch. AGREED i had read in multiple commentaries that the

757
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 3: comedy segments are by far the low point of the,

758
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:01,319
Speaker 3: film and they are for the most, part extremely, unpleasant

759
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 3: not funny and just like a lot of jokes about sex.

760
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 1: Crimes yeah, yeah so's it goes beyond, like, oh this

761
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 1: is out of keeping with the main vibe of the.

762
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:18,040
Speaker 1: Picture is just like content, wise it's. Gross SO i

763
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 1: would advise if you're just casually watching this, movie you,

764
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 1: know feel free to get up and get a snack

765
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 1: during the comedy. Segments don't necessarily bother reading the subtitles

766
00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: during these, segments and feel free to skip them all. Right,

767
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:37,799
Speaker 1: finally the music For piranha Mandir Ajit. SINGH i don't

768
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 1: THINK i was able to find any dates for, him

769
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,400
Speaker 1: but he worked on Subsequent ramsey pictures as, well Including

770
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 1: takana in eighty, Six Perani haveli in eighty, nine and

771
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 1: a friendly yetty movie that came out in ninety one

772
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 1: that looked pretty interesting as. Well but the music in

773
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,480
Speaker 1: this picture IS i guess at times IT'S i loved.

774
00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 1: It it's a little, abrasive like at times the synth

775
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 1: come on really, strong BUT i still can't fault it too,

776
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:07,400
Speaker 1: Much like it definitely gets in there and it comes

777
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 1: at you with its.

778
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:10,080
Speaker 3: Clause oh, YEAH i really liked a lot of the.

779
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:12,560
Speaker 3: Music there's one theme that really stuck in my head

780
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:16,239
Speaker 3: that was not especially complex, melodically but it was just

781
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,439
Speaker 3: like a real rubbery synth tone as the characters were

782
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 3: like exploring a secret passageway AND i was grooving on

783
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 3: it really.

784
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 1: Hard samri has a pretty strong theme as well THAT

785
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 1: i Think Omar, KHAN i think it Was Omar khan

786
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 1: compared it to the main theme from The Omen not

787
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,839
Speaker 1: but it's directly that or reuse of, that but maybe

788
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,360
Speaker 1: has hit similar notes of that.

789
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:50,560
Speaker 3: Score all, right so you wanted to talk about the plot, now,

790
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:51,400
Speaker 3: yeah let's do.

791
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:51,600
Speaker 1: It.

792
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,320
Speaker 3: Okay so one thing is we absolutely cannot do the

793
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:58,640
Speaker 3: kind of granular commentary we do with some, movies especially

794
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,279
Speaker 3: like seventy minute drive in movie or this episode would

795
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 3: be six hours. Long AND i want to say this

796
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:07,319
Speaker 3: is not only because this is the longest movie we've ever.

797
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 3: Done i'd also, ARGUE i wonder if you'd agree with,

798
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:13,879
Speaker 3: this that it's in the running for the densest movie we've,

799
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:18,800
Speaker 3: done meaning that the amount of plot or stuff happening

800
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:22,360
Speaker 3: per minute of run time is unusually.

801
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 1: High, Yeah, yeah everybody gets their stuff in on this,

802
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:30,400
Speaker 1: film and again it's it's having to deliver all of

803
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 1: the various. Spices so, yeah there's a there's a lot

804
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,799
Speaker 1: that happens in this, movie and to just cover every

805
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 1: bit of it we just wouldn't have time. For and

806
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,040
Speaker 1: certainly we're going to skip over stuff like the comedic,

807
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,960
Speaker 1: segments which you, know the less said the.

808
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 3: Better, Okay first of, ALL i like a film that

809
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 3: begins by showing you its. Papers the first thing we

810
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:52,239
Speaker 3: see here is a is a scan of the certificate

811
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 3: from The Central board Of Film certification of The indian.

812
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:59,720
Speaker 3: Government seem to recall seeing similar paperwork at the beginning

813
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,879
Speaker 3: of Like british movies from the, thirties like those Old

814
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 3: Alfred hitchcock movies that show you the certificate from The

815
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 3: British board Of Film. Censors, YEAH i.

816
00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:10,319
Speaker 1: AGREE i really like this and makes it feel kind

817
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 1: of like more like a cultural, artifact you. Know.

818
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:15,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah so the narration begins two hundred years. Ago

819
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:21,320
Speaker 3: Bijapor sultanate was ruled By Raja Hariman. Singh in those,

820
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,319
Speaker 3: days the fear of ghosts and demons prevailed in the

821
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 3: hearts of. People the most feared demon of all was Called.

822
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,160
Speaker 3: Somri and as they mentioned these different, people we see

823
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:34,920
Speaker 3: like painted portraits of. Them samri's portrait has a kind

824
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:39,200
Speaker 3: of purple, glow so he is emitting rays of evil

825
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 3: magic even in painted. Likeness the action begins with a

826
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:47,360
Speaker 3: historical flashback Where Hariman singh is traveling with his Daughter

827
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 3: rupali and his retainers when his chariot breaks. Down, unfortunately

828
00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:57,600
Speaker 3: it breaks down in the middle Of somri's, land and

829
00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:00,360
Speaker 3: even worse than, that his daughter wanders away while the

830
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,920
Speaker 3: carriage is being fixed and fearing for her, life The

831
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:07,759
Speaker 3: rajah sends his men out looking for. Her they, are

832
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:10,600
Speaker 3: of course attacked and picked off by the Evil. Sorcerer

833
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:13,160
Speaker 3: AND i just want to say this. Again one THING

834
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:18,240
Speaker 3: i noticed immediately about the opening segment is the extremely

835
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 3: high energy editing and pacing of each. Shot so the

836
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:27,600
Speaker 3: cuts between shots are, frequent and the action in each

837
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:32,040
Speaker 3: shot develops very, quickly so it's this kind of near

838
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 3: frantic pace for the first couple of. Minutes but it's

839
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:39,239
Speaker 3: not just, fast it's also, loud full of like screaming

840
00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 3: and blasts of, music like slamming the audio into the

841
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:44,280
Speaker 3: Red it's just a. Lot.

842
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:49,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah i've Seen Sam Raimi's Evil dead for maybe

843
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 1: one mentioned as an influence on The Ramsey brothers as

844
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 1: well as the films Of Wes, Craven SO i don't,

845
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:57,680
Speaker 1: know maybe we see a little bit of those influences

846
00:47:57,719 --> 00:47:58,440
Speaker 1: in this editing.

847
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:01,399
Speaker 3: Style it's not going to keep up at quite this

848
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 3: pace and level of intensity for the rest of the,

849
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:08,760
Speaker 3: movie but, overall, uh for this, film The Ramsey brothers

850
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:13,720
Speaker 3: do stick to a pretty fast moving and intense editing.

851
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:17,200
Speaker 3: Style it always feels. Energetic things are always happening really.

852
00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:21,320
Speaker 3: Quickly there's not a lot of establishing or waiting. Around.

853
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:24,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah and you don't have to wait to see

854
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,720
Speaker 1: Samri he's. There he's going to disappear for a while

855
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:31,319
Speaker 1: for reasons that will that makes, Sense but, yeah he's

856
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:32,840
Speaker 1: there from the get, go and you get to you

857
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:35,480
Speaker 1: get a good look at, him and and, boy it's

858
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 1: he's just a great sight to take.

859
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:41,360
Speaker 3: In AS i said, earlier strong evocations of rock. Stardom

860
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 3: he's like he is singing devil. Music but, Okay samary

861
00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:50,120
Speaker 3: is running. Around he kills all Of Harry Mun singh's,

862
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:53,280
Speaker 3: men and then he vamps Through. Polly Harry Mun singh's.

863
00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:56,480
Speaker 3: Daughter how are we supposed to understand what happened to?

864
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:59,120
Speaker 3: HER i don't know, Exactly like he leans over her

865
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:02,200
Speaker 3: as if he's biting, her and then there's blood on

866
00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:05,400
Speaker 3: her face and her eyes look. Different there's sort of

867
00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:07,480
Speaker 3: like her eyes have turned, white as if she's in

868
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:09,360
Speaker 3: a kind of magical.

869
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,799
Speaker 1: Trance one THING i loved About somre just throughout the

870
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,880
Speaker 1: picture IS i never really know what the rules are with.

871
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 1: Him he's just overpoweringly, evil like he, yeah he can

872
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:23,839
Speaker 1: drink your, blood but it's just he just looks at.

873
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 1: You if you just think about him too, much you

874
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 1: may just lose your. Soul and then in terms of

875
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,800
Speaker 1: like what he, is, yeah there's the Basic gahara rises

876
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:36,560
Speaker 1: from the tomb undead sorcerer aspect of the whole. Thing but,

877
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:39,359
Speaker 1: like especially when he starts showing up, LATER i, mean

878
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,359
Speaker 1: he already has things at this, point and then later

879
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:45,480
Speaker 1: on in the, movie his body becomes even more monstrous

880
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,040
Speaker 1: in ways that don't line up with just pure like

881
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:53,560
Speaker 1: decay and, Resurrection like his body becomes just increasingly like

882
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 1: just materially.

883
00:49:55,239 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 3: Evil, yeah his later form is Part, frankenstein part decaying,

884
00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 3: zombie and part pro.

885
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,719
Speaker 1: Wrestler, yeah with like some bigfoot thrown in.

886
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:09,920
Speaker 3: There yeah, yeah. Yeah, Anyway Harry munsingh comes back with

887
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:13,400
Speaker 3: his full forces and they capture the. Demon they capture,

888
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:16,319
Speaker 3: summary taming him with holy things like there is a

889
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 3: priest chasing him with a, trisula the trident Of, shiva

890
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:25,160
Speaker 3: and there is an altar with a statue Of, shiva et.

891
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:28,480
Speaker 3: Cetera and he's ultimately held in. Chains they stand him

892
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:31,720
Speaker 3: up for a kind of trial while the accusations against

893
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:35,320
Speaker 3: him are read before the. Crowd, basically he did everything.

894
00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 3: Bad he did, murder, rape, cannibalism all of, it all

895
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:40,840
Speaker 3: in service of his, evil demonic.

896
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:44,240
Speaker 1: MASTERS i liked how the priest is reading these charges

897
00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:46,839
Speaker 1: out and finally stumbles a, bit reading the charge of

898
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:48,320
Speaker 1: digging up graves and eating.

899
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:52,560
Speaker 3: Corpses that doesn't seem like the worst of, them.

900
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 1: No but at that point he's this is too. Far

901
00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:57,080
Speaker 1: we're not used to this. One we don't even have

902
00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 1: this one on the. Books i'm not sure this is technically.

903
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,160
Speaker 1: Illegal it's just bad. Manners.

904
00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:05,360
Speaker 3: Now there was a cultural and language question here that interested.

905
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 3: Me in The english subtitles of this, scene it says

906
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:13,680
Speaker 3: That samri is accused of using His satanic powers to

907
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:17,480
Speaker 3: create terror among the. People it says that he slaked

908
00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:21,680
Speaker 3: His satanic thirst by drinking the blood of, children and

909
00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:24,840
Speaker 3: it says he is so vile that Even satan would shun.

910
00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:28,840
Speaker 3: Him so given The hindu context, here and it seems

911
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:30,960
Speaker 3: very much in A hindu, context like there are other

912
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:33,799
Speaker 3: scenes where you, know there are, temples the temples Of,

913
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:37,879
Speaker 3: shiva people offering prayers To shiva in order to help.

914
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:42,480
Speaker 3: THEM i kind of wonder whether they actually Said satanic

915
00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:44,880
Speaker 3: And satan in these. SCENES i guess they could, have

916
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:49,360
Speaker 3: BECAUSE i kept hearing a word in the audio that

917
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:54,080
Speaker 3: sounded like. Shatan SO i was just, curious what's going on,

918
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 3: Here like what is the most direct translation of what they're. Saying,

919
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:01,800
Speaker 3: because of, course in the context of like A christian

920
00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 3: culture horror, movie it's very, normal like the evil sorcerer

921
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:08,239
Speaker 3: is understood to get his powers From satan or some

922
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:11,960
Speaker 3: kind of demonic. Force in The hindu, context where does

923
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,239
Speaker 3: the evil sorcerer's, power where's it understood to come?

924
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:17,879
Speaker 1: From, YEAH i had the same thought. HERE i, thought,

925
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:21,000
Speaker 1: well maybe they're just referring to mentions Of satan And western,

926
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 1: films which would have obviously been an influence, here and

927
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:26,640
Speaker 1: THEN i was, thinking, well maybe it's there's An arabic

928
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:31,920
Speaker 1: loanword at play. HERE i looked up to some basic

929
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:34,600
Speaker 1: stuff in. Translation, AGAIN i do not know What i'm

930
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:38,239
Speaker 1: doing with The hindi language at, all but it does

931
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:46,360
Speaker 1: seem like we do have this term, chatan which means, devil, satan, freaks,

932
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:50,759
Speaker 1: beasts or. Demons SO i guess that's what we're talking about. Here.

933
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:54,359
Speaker 3: Interesting, okay, again The hindi speaking listeners please write in

934
00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:55,160
Speaker 3: let us know.

935
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:58,080
Speaker 1: At any, rate he's done all the bad things and

936
00:52:58,120 --> 00:52:59,279
Speaker 1: something's got to be done about.

937
00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:03,279
Speaker 3: It, Right So Harryman sing's advisors all they argue about

938
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:06,200
Speaker 3: the best way to punish this evil. Sorcerer the priest,

939
00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:08,120
Speaker 3: says you, know why don't we burn him to, ashes

940
00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:11,319
Speaker 3: that'll purify him with. Flame Harryman singh, Says, No i've

941
00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 3: got a better. Idea we're gonna cut his head off

942
00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 3: and keep it in a different building than his, body

943
00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:20,800
Speaker 3: and that way we'll know that his head and body

944
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:24,160
Speaker 3: can never possibly be. Reunited there you.

945
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:25,760
Speaker 1: Go sounds like a winning.

946
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:29,600
Speaker 3: Plan and then the holy man suggests using the trident

947
00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,719
Speaker 3: the trisula to guard his. HEAD i think they're gonna

948
00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:35,280
Speaker 3: like lay it over the top of the. Box okay,

949
00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:37,280
Speaker 3: again sounds sounds. Good that's a good way to secure.

950
00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:41,840
Speaker 3: It then the prologue. Ends suddenly lightning strikes and there

951
00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:46,839
Speaker 3: are more. Credits after these, credits we get the story picks,

952
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 3: up but it's still in the historical, prologue and we

953
00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,600
Speaker 3: see them Leading samri off to his, fate and then

954
00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:56,080
Speaker 3: they're sort of leading him in procession and, chains and

955
00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,000
Speaker 3: then he stops to rage at everyone like he rages

956
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:02,319
Speaker 3: At Harryman, singh and he issues a curse upon his,

957
00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:05,800
Speaker 3: household which is he says that all of his female

958
00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:10,000
Speaker 3: heirs will die in childbirth Until samri's head and body

959
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 3: are joined. Again note that in the scene they haven't

960
00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:16,120
Speaker 3: been separated. Yet, also he, says on the day that

961
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:18,840
Speaker 3: his head and body are joined, again that will be

962
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 3: the end Of Hariman singh's. DYNASTY i guess meeting he

963
00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:25,879
Speaker 3: will destroy them. All then they do. It they cut

964
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:28,160
Speaker 3: his head off and they bury the body in the

965
00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:32,240
Speaker 3: ruins of a. Temple they say It's Shunkar's polygot, temple

966
00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:35,279
Speaker 3: and they take his head to throw it in a

967
00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:37,920
Speaker 3: trunk wrapped with. Chains and then they hide that in

968
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,279
Speaker 3: the dungeon of The raja's, palace and then they of

969
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,920
Speaker 3: course put The trishula as she was wholly, trident on

970
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:46,319
Speaker 3: top of the trunk and they wall it up Like.

971
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:50,719
Speaker 1: Fortunado all in, all a pretty great historical prologue that

972
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:55,720
Speaker 1: then leads us into modern Day aka in an early Eighties.

973
00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:59,480
Speaker 3: Bombay, Right so we meet our modern day. Characters there

974
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:03,360
Speaker 3: Is Takur ranbier. Sing he is the descendant of The

975
00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:06,480
Speaker 3: raja from the, prologue so the curse has passed down

976
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:09,560
Speaker 3: through his. Family he's a rich. Man he loves his,

977
00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:13,200
Speaker 3: family but he is preoccupied with fears about the ancestral.

978
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:18,120
Speaker 3: Curse there Is ranbier's, Daughter, suman who is a college.

980
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:24,799
Speaker 3: father laments her growing up because that means that she

981
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:27,600
Speaker 3: may marry and try to have children and then the

982
00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:32,160
Speaker 3: curse Of samri will kill. Her then there Is suman's Boyfriend. Sanjay,

983

989
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:53,879
Speaker 3: Way so we See suman And sanjay being in. Love

Speaker 1: disco type musical. PERFORMANCE i GUESS i really enjoyed. IT

997
00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:15,840
Speaker 1: i turned the volume up a little bit on this.

998
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:19,080
Speaker 3: ONE i was thinking though about this night club. Here

999
00:56:19,440 --> 00:56:22,960
Speaker 3: it's a strange mix of inside it seems cool but also.

1000
00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:26,840
Speaker 3: CLAUSTROPHOBIC i think maybe the claustrophobic aspect comes from like

1001
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:29,439
Speaker 3: the solid black walls and what felt like a sort

1002
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:33,720
Speaker 3: of low. Ceiling but it's got these cool like red

1003
00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:37,440
Speaker 3: bench seats and then posters on the wall for movies and,

1004
00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:39,680
Speaker 3: stuff like there's a poster For superman up on the.

1005
00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:42,600
Speaker 1: Walls yeah, Yeah and we also we get a little

1006
00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:46,080
Speaker 1: bit Of sonjay is looking at the dancer maybe a

1007
00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,600
Speaker 1: little bit too, much And suman is so it was

1008
00:56:48,640 --> 00:56:52,040
Speaker 1: a little bit. Jealous this is a recurring. Motif, yes

1009
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:54,040
Speaker 1: whole songs will be sung about this later.

1010
00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:57,440
Speaker 3: On So suman And sonjay are in, love But suman

1011
00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:00,200
Speaker 3: has to lie to her father about where she's going

1012
00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:02,799
Speaker 3: when she heads out on dates with. Him, however her

1013
00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:05,920
Speaker 3: father finds out Ron beer is not, pleased and he

1014
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:10,279
Speaker 3: forbids her to See sanjay. Again but of course she's in.

1015
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,600
Speaker 3: Love there's no stopping, her so she's not going to

1016
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:16,840
Speaker 3: just leave her boyfriend. Hanging and so this is an

1017
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:19,920
Speaker 3: ongoing conflict at the beginning of the. Movie and, again

1018
00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:22,520
Speaker 3: AS i mentioned, earlier there's a misunderstanding about the reason

1019
00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 3: her father forbids the. Romance she and like the young

1020
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,439
Speaker 3: people think it is a class, thing that she's rich

1021
00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:32,440
Speaker 3: and he's. Not actually it's a demonic curse, thing but

1022
00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:33,080
Speaker 3: they don't know that.

1023
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:36,400
Speaker 1: Yet, yeah he won't tell her about, that he's keeping that. Secret,

1024
00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:39,800
Speaker 1: instead he just says things, like, hey our family name

1025
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:41,840
Speaker 1: is not so deluded that our blood can just flow

1026
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:45,280
Speaker 1: directly into the gutter and things like, that and of

1027
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:47,840
Speaker 1: course that just pushes her further. Away he won't tell

1028
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 1: her the real demonic curse rationale that is behind his.

1029
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:55,400
Speaker 3: Fear but then we get like a love song on

1030
00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,720
Speaker 3: a beach or it's on rocks near the, shore Where

1031
00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:02,640
Speaker 3: sanjay is singing about his love For. Suman, yeah and it's,

1032
00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:04,720
Speaker 3: nice you, Know it's like just a nice music video.

1033
00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:08,000
Speaker 3: Break somewhere in here we get the first martial arts,

1034
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:11,160
Speaker 3: scene and this is with Uh. Okay so the basic

1035
00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 3: situation is Ron bier. Again he Forbids sanjay And suman to,

1036
00:58:14,680 --> 00:58:18,200
Speaker 3: date but then he catches them. Together so he sends his,

1037
00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:20,600
Speaker 3: men who are all dressed up in these cool red,

1038
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:23,520
Speaker 3: jackets to beat Up sanjay and then on on to

1039
00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 3: like comes over the mountain. Top it comes over like

1040
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:28,960
Speaker 3: a ridge looking down on them and runs into the.

1041
00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:31,840
Speaker 3: Rescue and then together they beat up all of the

1042
00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:34,320
Speaker 3: all of the bad. GUYS i guess they're not bad.

1043
00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:36,040
Speaker 3: GUYS i don't. Know the guy's working for her.

1044
00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:39,840
Speaker 1: Dad they're Just dad's goon squad that's to beat Up.

1045
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:43,360
Speaker 3: Sanjay but we see a lot of signs Of Ron beer's,

1046
00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:46,040
Speaker 3: worries like he has a freak out dream sequence with

1047
00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:48,720
Speaker 3: a giant beast sammary. Head and this is where we

1048
00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:51,560
Speaker 3: start getting signs of What samri will look. Like his

1049
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:55,560
Speaker 3: in his sort of undead, form which is again less

1050
00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:58,320
Speaker 3: rock star and more kind OF i don't, yeah like,

1051
00:58:58,480 --> 00:58:59,960
Speaker 3: bigfoot pro wrestler.

1052
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:05,120
Speaker 1: Zombie, yeah just seething in, darkness just these great, eyes

1053
00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:09,920
Speaker 1: just in this pronounced. Brow it's just a tremendous. Look

1054
00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:14,080
Speaker 1: AND i can just imagine moviegoers screaming when they see

1055
00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:14,520
Speaker 1: this on the.

1056
00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:18,240
Speaker 3: Screen but eventually the curse is revealed To suman And,

1057
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 3: sanjay and they have a bunch more you, know back

1058
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:23,800
Speaker 3: and forth about how Ron beard disapproves of, them but,

1059
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:26,480
Speaker 3: eventually like there's one scene where he's repeatedly getting a

1060
00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:29,440
Speaker 3: gun off the, wall but eventually he breaks down and

1061
00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:32,360
Speaker 3: confesses to them what's really going. On he explains the,

1062
00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:36,080
Speaker 3: curse and there are, exchanges like one that was funny

1063
00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:38,840
Speaker 3: was he's, like you, know it's a, secret and they

1064
00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:41,040
Speaker 3: say what's the secret and he, says it's ONE i can't,

1065
00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:44,240
Speaker 3: reveal and they're, like but you must reveal. It but

1066
00:59:44,280 --> 00:59:47,640
Speaker 3: then when he, does it's. Horrifying there's a horrifying flashback

1067
00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:52,200
Speaker 3: to When ronbier reveals that After suman was, born her

1068
00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:56,800
Speaker 3: mother was transformed into some kind of devil creature with

1069
00:59:56,840 --> 01:00:00,560
Speaker 3: these long. Fingernails these claws and like barnicle on her

1070
01:00:00,600 --> 01:00:01,320
Speaker 3: face and then she.

1071
01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:04,560
Speaker 1: Died, yeah there's. Nothing it turns out there's nothing ambiguous about.

1072
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:06,800
Speaker 1: IT i thought they were more setting up a situation

1073
01:00:06,840 --> 01:00:09,000
Speaker 1: where it's, like, oh you're you know you're your mom

Speaker 1: proximity to the comedic, segments And i'm never sure how

1103

1124

01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:47,160

1131
01:02:50,040 --> 01:03:01,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, Meanwhile ron be are back at. Home he has

1132
01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:05,240
Speaker 3: visions of Samary as in his kind of altered beast

1133
01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:08,160
Speaker 3: form and has a heart. Attack he, survives but the

1134
01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:10,800
Speaker 3: doctors say he must, rest AND i think they use

1135
01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:13,560
Speaker 3: this to explain why he doesn't chase after the youths

1136
01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:17,320
Speaker 3: to stop them on their. Quest, yeah but then we

1137
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:18,920
Speaker 3: go into a part of the movie where basically the

1138
01:03:18,920 --> 01:03:22,720
Speaker 3: four friends are investigating the different. Settings so they go

1139
01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:26,720
Speaker 3: to an old. Temple they noticed that the statue in the,

1140
01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:29,600
Speaker 3: temple WHICH i believe is Of shiva or maybe Of

1141
01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:36,840
Speaker 3: shivshankar maybe they say, later is missing its. Trident and

1142
01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:40,080
Speaker 3: then you, know so they look around, there they have

1143
01:03:40,200 --> 01:03:43,600
Speaker 3: some visions of scary. Things they drive around and just

1144
01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:47,120
Speaker 3: have encounters with scary, people like they meet a woodcutter

1145
01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:49,880
Speaker 3: who just freaks them out by smiling at them and

1146
01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:53,360
Speaker 3: holding an. Axe and then finally they reach the palace

1147
01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:57,560
Speaker 3: and they explore that and Meet dirjan the, watchman who

1148
01:03:57,720 --> 01:04:00,960
Speaker 3: shows them around and tells them sort of family, history

1149
01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:04,680
Speaker 3: and they start having repeated freaky reactions to portraits OR

1150
01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:06,720
Speaker 3: i guess mainly it's Just suman that. Does like she

1151
01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:09,360
Speaker 3: sees a portrait of her ancestor and it zooms in

1152
01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:11,520
Speaker 3: on her eyes and it's knowing whoa, whoa whoa.

1153
01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:15,520
Speaker 1: Whoah is this the scene where the eyes follow? Her

1154
01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:18,440
Speaker 1: and they do it by having clearly two separate, paintings

1155
01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:20,880
Speaker 1: one with eyes looking straight ahead and one with eyes

1156
01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:21,720
Speaker 1: looking off to the.

1157
01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:25,000
Speaker 3: Side, YEAH i loved. IT i really like these scenes.

1158
01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:28,200
Speaker 1: Because we know the viewer knows that behind that, painting

1159
01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:31,520
Speaker 1: behind the bricked up wall is going to be the

1160
01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:34,800
Speaker 1: head Of, samary sealed up in a box With trishula

1161
01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:38,840
Speaker 1: leaned against it to keep it from coming out and wreaking.

1162
01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:42,480
Speaker 3: Havoc the next, day there's a funny scene Where sopna

1163
01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 3: is annoyed Because anon won't stop doing workouts and martial,

1164
01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:50,920
Speaker 3: Arts like she's doing one handed push ups and practicing martial,

1165
01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:54,920
Speaker 3: arts and she's just, Like, wow really really great romantic

1166
01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:56,200
Speaker 3: vacation you took me.

1167
01:04:56,240 --> 01:04:59,200
Speaker 1: On, yeah this is a fun sequence, though because then

1168
01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:02,720
Speaker 1: she kind of has this where she fantasizes about him

1169
01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:07,120
Speaker 1: being more into romance and less into personal, fitness which

1170
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:08,040
Speaker 1: WHICH i thought was pretty.

1171
01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:11,960
Speaker 3: Fun then oh, my here things start taking a left. Turn, well,

1172
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:15,200
Speaker 3: first a bunch of guys from the forest Attacks sopna

1173
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:18,200
Speaker 3: from out of, nowhere and Then anon gets to come

1174
01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:21,080
Speaker 3: to the rescue and beat them all. Up and then

1175
01:05:21,160 --> 01:05:24,160
Speaker 3: we go and meet this bandit commander WHO'S i think

1176
01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:27,520
Speaker 3: giving the guys in the forest. Orders it starts with

1177
01:05:27,560 --> 01:05:30,560
Speaker 3: a lot of over the top slapstick comedy and then

1178
01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:33,960
Speaker 3: descends into this rivalry between the bandit and a local

1179
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:38,040
Speaker 3: official in the. Village this is the barely related comedic

1180
01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:40,640
Speaker 3: side plot that we were discussing, earlier and to be,

1181
01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:44,440
Speaker 3: frank as many reviewers have, MENTIONED i found it extremely.

1182
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:47,680
Speaker 3: Unpleasant i'm not going to make much effort to recount.

1183
01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:49,400
Speaker 3: It but it's a lot of jokes about like a

1184
01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:52,360
Speaker 3: guy not having arms and another guy who does sex.

1185
01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:57,080
Speaker 1: Crimes, yeah that's basically. It and they just keep driving

1186
01:05:57,080 --> 01:06:01,760
Speaker 1: home these plot points and and it's it's very. SKIPPABLE

1187
01:06:01,840 --> 01:06:04,000
Speaker 1: i highly recommend you skip it if you watch this.

1188
01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:07,360
Speaker 1: Movie but but it. Is it really throws you off

1189
01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:09,919
Speaker 1: when you first hit it because when the bandit's men show,

1190
01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:13,480
Speaker 1: up they have like like dime Store halloween mask on

1191
01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:16,320
Speaker 1: the back of their, head and you're just, like, what

1192
01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:18,880
Speaker 1: what what is? Happening DID i switch channels? Somehow this

1193
01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:21,120
Speaker 1: is an error on the. Disk, no you've just you've

1194
01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:24,400
Speaker 1: just descended into the comedic. Subplot but don't. Worry you

1195
01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:27,000
Speaker 1: will eventually rise out of. It but then you're gonna

1196
01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:29,280
Speaker 1: fall into it at least one more, time and then

1197
01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:31,240
Speaker 1: you'll fall out of it again without anything in the

1198
01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:35,400
Speaker 1: comedic plot ever really impacting THE a plot or getting.

1199
01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:38,600
Speaker 3: Resolved, YEAH i mean there's a little bit of, interaction

1200
01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:42,840
Speaker 3: like it does develop to where the bandit and A

1201
01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:46,080
Speaker 3: noon have a have a twoco and blondie plot From The,

1202
01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:47,919
Speaker 3: good The, bad and The, ugly where LIKE A noon

1203
01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:51,600
Speaker 3: repeatedly turns the bandit in for a bounty and then

1204
01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:54,320
Speaker 3: freeze him before, execution and then does it again to

1205
01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:55,000
Speaker 3: keep collecting.

1206
01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:57,480
Speaker 1: Money, yeah and then the whole time you're just like

1207
01:06:57,520 --> 01:06:59,400
Speaker 1: a non stay out of this. Subplot you don't need

Speaker 3: and the. Temple. Uh there are also sections here where

1214
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:17,440

Speaker 3: of what the road trip was, For like instead of

1216

1299
01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:20,160
Speaker 3: down the. Wall they investigate the secret passageway. Within this

1300
01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:21,880
Speaker 3: is the scene WHERE i mentioned there's some really cool

1301
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:26,360
Speaker 3: kind of rubbery synth. Music there's some cool bits Like

1302
01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:29,000
Speaker 3: anon gets a snake attack to the. NECK a snake

1303
01:11:29,040 --> 01:11:31,519
Speaker 3: wraps itself around his neck and they have to fight it.

1304
01:11:31,560 --> 01:11:35,360
Speaker 3: Off but then they find the. Trishula they find the

1305
01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:38,000
Speaker 3: trident Of shiva on top of the trunk wrapped in.

1306
01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:41,559
Speaker 3: Chains they bust it. Open inside they find the severed,

1307
01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:44,559
Speaker 3: head And sanjay concludes that it must be the head

1308
01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:47,439
Speaker 3: of some brave soldier and it must be there out of.

1309
01:11:47,479 --> 01:11:50,559
Speaker 1: Respect, Oh sanjay couldn't be more.

1310
01:11:50,600 --> 01:11:53,599
Speaker 3: Wrong bad. Decision, yeah but then there's, like so the

1311
01:11:53,640 --> 01:11:57,400
Speaker 3: woodcutter from earlier is looking on and he decides he

1312
01:11:57,520 --> 01:11:59,920
Speaker 3: sees the box and he thinks it's full of treasure

1313
01:12:00,160 --> 01:12:02,720
Speaker 3: and he wants, treasure so he comes back in the

1314
01:12:02,720 --> 01:12:05,880
Speaker 3: middle of the night to get, treasure and instead the

1315
01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:09,360
Speaker 3: head hypnotizes him and turns his eyes into ping pong

1316
01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:10,679
Speaker 3: balls and makes him attack.

1317
01:12:10,720 --> 01:12:14,680
Speaker 1: People the ping pong pong eyes were pretty, hilarious AND

1318
01:12:15,439 --> 01:12:17,920
Speaker 1: i don't think they were meant to be. Hilarious but

1319
01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:20,439
Speaker 1: they're also out of keeping with what they did with

1320
01:12:20,600 --> 01:12:22,800
Speaker 1: other people's possessed, Eyes like they did some sort of

1321
01:12:23,240 --> 01:12:26,120
Speaker 1: like contact, EFFECT i guess with everyone, else but this

1322
01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:30,559
Speaker 1: guy got ping pong. Eyes, yeah and it's a questionable.

1323
01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:34,960
Speaker 3: Choice Like rupauli's eyes were creepy, looking they like they turned,

1324
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:37,479
Speaker 3: white but they were you, know, yeah so those were.

1325
01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:40,200
Speaker 3: Different he just has like they're like bulging and they

1326
01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:40,519
Speaker 3: look like.

1327
01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,080
Speaker 1: Plastic, yeah they're, like we couldn't get a hold of

1328
01:12:43,080 --> 01:12:47,080
Speaker 1: our contact guy for. Today what else we? Got what's

1329
01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:49,200
Speaker 1: the backup? Effect it's ping pong.

1330
01:12:49,240 --> 01:12:52,960
Speaker 3: Balls this leads to a great chase scene THAT i.

1331
01:12:53,040 --> 01:12:56,120
Speaker 3: Loved so it's The it's like a horse drawn carriage

1332
01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:59,479
Speaker 3: with driven by the woodcutter carrying the wizard head in

1333
01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:03,000
Speaker 3: the carr, bridge riding through the forest at, night and

1334
01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:06,200
Speaker 3: Then sanjay in an ond in a red convertible chasing after.

1335
01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:08,120
Speaker 3: It so it's machine versus.

1336
01:13:08,160 --> 01:13:13,960
Speaker 1: Horse it's. Great but then they are also supernatural environmental

1337
01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:15,240
Speaker 1: effects that come into play as.

1338
01:13:15,280 --> 01:13:17,400
Speaker 3: Well that's all, Right so like The sorcerer's HEAD i

1339
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:20,280
Speaker 3: think causes a tree to fall down and block their

1340
01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:22,960
Speaker 3: path as they pursue the, head so they can't keep

1341
01:13:23,040 --> 01:13:26,879
Speaker 3: up with. It, meanwhile something happens in here Where dershan

1342
01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:30,960
Speaker 3: hangs the trisula up on the. Chandelier, yeah unsure.

1343
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:32,720
Speaker 1: Why he's kind of, LIKE i got to hide this

1344
01:13:32,800 --> 01:13:36,320
Speaker 1: away for later so that it can play a dynamic

1345
01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:39,320
Speaker 1: role in the showdown or. Something, yeah so the only

1346
01:13:39,360 --> 01:13:40,080
Speaker 1: logic that makes.

1347
01:13:40,080 --> 01:13:44,240
Speaker 3: Sense so the hypnotized woodcutter like digs Up samri's. BODY

1348
01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:46,040
Speaker 3: i guess he knows where it is because the head

1349
01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:48,800
Speaker 3: has hypnotized. Him then he grabs the, head he puts

1350
01:13:48,880 --> 01:13:51,120
Speaker 3: the head on the. Body he pokes himself with a

1351
01:13:51,200 --> 01:13:53,840
Speaker 3: dagger and bleeds on the neck, stump and this kind

1352
01:13:53,840 --> 01:13:56,920
Speaker 3: of glues the head back on and Then samar wakes

1353
01:13:57,040 --> 01:13:59,240
Speaker 3: up and now it's it's clober and.

1354
01:13:59,320 --> 01:14:03,360
Speaker 1: Time that's, right it is. On body and head are

1355
01:14:03,439 --> 01:14:06,880
Speaker 1: back together. Again his. Body at this, point LIKE i

1356
01:14:06,880 --> 01:14:11,200
Speaker 1: alluded to, earlier it's the evil is just completely. Manifest

1357
01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:18,000
Speaker 1: it's it's now this hairy demonic Sasquatch frankenstein creature that

1358
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:20,840
Speaker 1: that ultimately really. Works like if the Way i'm describing

1359
01:14:20,880 --> 01:14:23,360
Speaker 1: it makes it sound like it's kind of patchwork and

1360
01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:25,439
Speaker 1: and maybe you, know can't decide what it wants to,

1361
01:14:25,439 --> 01:14:28,160
Speaker 1: be but, no whatever it is it, is it totally

1362
01:14:28,280 --> 01:14:31,839
Speaker 1: succeeds as being. That it's just. This this is evil.

1363
01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:39,679
Speaker 3: Incarnate samri is wickedness and Malevol i'd say he's. Bad, hey,

1364
01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:41,680
Speaker 3: everybody we just had to take a quick, break but

1365
01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:44,439
Speaker 3: we we're back. Now so if we sound, different that's.

1366
01:14:44,479 --> 01:14:48,600
Speaker 3: Why but we're finishing the. Episode so uh, yeah the

1367
01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:50,960
Speaker 3: plot is kind of in monster mode right. Now this

1368
01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:55,719
Speaker 3: is when The frankenstein starts shambling, around, grunting looming and killing.

1369
01:14:55,760 --> 01:15:01,040
Speaker 1: People, Yeah samri has, returned has full body, again has

1370
01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:04,200
Speaker 1: great lights and effects And scynth backing him. Up so

1371
01:15:04,240 --> 01:15:07,360
Speaker 1: it's just terrifying anytime he's on the. Screen he's not

1372
01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:10,599
Speaker 1: interested in reasoning with anybody or. Negotiating he is here

1373
01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:14,080
Speaker 1: to in. Dynasties he doesn't care what has happened in

1374
01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:17,599
Speaker 1: the world over the past few. Centuries he has a

1375
01:15:17,640 --> 01:15:20,679
Speaker 1: pretty straightforward. Agenda, OH i didn't even think about.

1376
01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:22,559
Speaker 3: That, like he hasn't been, around so he doesn't know

1377
01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:28,320
Speaker 3: about the moon landing or. Anything, okay so, yeah he's killing. People,

Speaker 3: him But samri is. Gone and from here there is

1383
01:15:45,360 --> 01:15:49,439
Speaker 3: a blood sacrifice. Subplot the villagers decide they want to

1384
01:15:49,520 --> 01:15:53,439
Speaker 3: do a human sacrifice Of sanjay And suman in order

1385
01:15:53,520 --> 01:15:57,120
Speaker 3: to appease the monster and save, themselves and here we

1386
01:15:57,200 --> 01:16:00,880
Speaker 3: get a human sacrifice musical, number WHICH i liked quite a.

1387
01:16:00,920 --> 01:16:03,639
Speaker 1: Lot, yeah this one is. GOOD i believe they're looking

1388
01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:07,760
Speaker 1: to sacrifice To klie and it looks it looks like

1389
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:11,519
Speaker 1: our heroes might be might be doomed once. More but

1390
01:16:12,240 --> 01:16:14,439
Speaker 1: someone comes to save him right in the naked, time.

1391
01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:17,240
Speaker 3: Right so they're like tied up awaiting, death and you,

1392
01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:20,280
Speaker 3: know the drums kick, in and then suddenly here's this

1393
01:16:20,400 --> 01:16:23,760
Speaker 3: lady from. Earlier the one is her Name, BEACHLEY i

1394
01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:27,600
Speaker 3: think the one who was in love With, sanjay like

1395
01:16:27,640 --> 01:16:30,320
Speaker 3: he went to her house, earlier and she's dancing around

1396
01:16:30,400 --> 01:16:34,160
Speaker 3: singing this very, jolly upbeat song about how the man

1397
01:16:34,240 --> 01:16:37,200
Speaker 3: she loved is unfortunately going to have his blood spilled

1398
01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:40,200
Speaker 3: and she doesn't want. That and then there's a string of.

1399
01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:43,000
Speaker 3: Reversals so first of, all she comes to save the

1400
01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:47,719
Speaker 3: day because she Cuts sonjay free and says she loves

1401
01:16:47,800 --> 01:16:49,640
Speaker 3: him and tries to let him, free but then he

1402
01:16:49,680 --> 01:16:52,559
Speaker 3: gets caught by the. Mob but then her, brother who

1403
01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:55,400
Speaker 3: is sort of the guy leading the, mob says that

1404
01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:58,960
Speaker 3: he will still Kill suman Unless sanjay beats him in

1405
01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:01,280
Speaker 3: a sword. Fight and then they get out. There they're

1406
01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:04,759
Speaker 3: fencing swords and they fence for a. Bit the sword

1407
01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:07,240
Speaker 3: fight is, okay it's not really on the level Of

1408
01:17:07,280 --> 01:17:11,800
Speaker 3: an's martial arts. Scenes and then at the end of

1409
01:17:11,800 --> 01:17:15,360
Speaker 3: the sword, Fight sanjay sort of, wins but the brother

1410
01:17:15,479 --> 01:17:18,760
Speaker 3: tries to throw a dagger At sanjay's back to kill,

1411
01:17:18,840 --> 01:17:22,640
Speaker 3: him but yet, again the sister who Loves sanjay. Intervenes

1412
01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:25,720
Speaker 3: she steps in front of the dagger and takes it

1413
01:17:25,760 --> 01:17:26,240
Speaker 3: for him and.

1414
01:17:26,280 --> 01:17:29,080
Speaker 1: Dies oh, no, yeah bad girl with a good. Heart

1415
01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:32,320
Speaker 1: redeems herself through. DEATH i also like that the sword,

1416
01:17:32,320 --> 01:17:34,400
Speaker 1: fight like you, say is very different from anything we've

1417
01:17:34,400 --> 01:17:37,160
Speaker 1: seen in the film up to that, point and it feels,

1418
01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:40,280
Speaker 1: like once, again this is the little something for everybody

1419
01:17:40,320 --> 01:17:42,280
Speaker 1: going on where it's like we need to have a

1420
01:17:42,280 --> 01:17:45,559
Speaker 1: traditional swashbuckling act in the picture and this is the

1421
01:17:45,600 --> 01:17:48,000
Speaker 1: place to situate. It, yeah it makes.

1422
01:17:48,040 --> 01:17:51,320
Speaker 3: Sense so, Anyway sanjay And suman run, away the mob

1423
01:17:51,400 --> 01:17:53,880
Speaker 3: searches after. Them you, know there's kind of a lot

1424
01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:56,280
Speaker 3: of running around and hiding and chasing in the, woods

1425
01:17:56,840 --> 01:17:59,280
Speaker 3: and then here comes another a noon. Fight he is

1426
01:17:59,360 --> 01:18:03,000
Speaker 3: a nod is captured by the leader of the mob

1427
01:18:03,680 --> 01:18:08,519
Speaker 3: and then there's some fighting and on lets out some

1428
01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:11,720
Speaker 3: really weird martial arts moves in this, Fight like there's

1429
01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:13,679
Speaker 3: one WHERE i think he steps on a guy's. Head

1430
01:18:13,720 --> 01:18:14,160
Speaker 3: it's kind of.

1431
01:18:14,160 --> 01:18:17,200
Speaker 1: Gross, well he's just completely powered up with vengeance at this,

1432
01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:19,000
Speaker 1: point like he's more lethal than.

1433
01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:22,439
Speaker 3: Ever, right and so he's, yeah he's angered by the

1434
01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:26,559
Speaker 3: death of his. Wife he is motivated by defending his,

1435
01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:30,800
Speaker 3: friends so he's fighting super hard and there's a really

1436
01:18:30,840 --> 01:18:33,880
Speaker 3: awesome moment where the leader of the mob tries to

1437
01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:36,719
Speaker 3: stab him with a, dagger But anon grabs the dagger

1438
01:18:36,800 --> 01:18:39,160
Speaker 3: by the blade and disarms. Him.

1439
01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:40,880
Speaker 1: Excellent he just cannot be stopped at this.

1440
01:18:40,960 --> 01:18:45,280
Speaker 3: Point but, unfortunately even Though anon prevails in this, fight

1441
01:18:46,120 --> 01:18:49,120
Speaker 3: there is immediately more. Peril So sanjay And suman are

1442
01:18:49,160 --> 01:18:52,719
Speaker 3: chased in the Dark bysomri the, demon And anon comes

1443
01:18:52,760 --> 01:18:55,479
Speaker 3: to rescue. Them he ends up giving his life so

1444
01:18:55,520 --> 01:18:57,639
Speaker 3: that they can, escape just like he said he would.

1445
01:18:57,640 --> 01:19:02,040
Speaker 3: Earlier so a true friend to the. End samary kind

1446
01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:04,479
Speaker 3: of strangles, HIM i, think and then his eyes turn.

1447
01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:08,439
Speaker 1: White so now it's just our two lovers pursued by

1448
01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:09,160
Speaker 1: the Demon.

1449
01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:13,360
Speaker 3: Somri but an earlier character, returns So suman's dad is

1450
01:19:13,439 --> 01:19:16,519
Speaker 3: back on the scene and he shows. Up he's like

1451
01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:19,639
Speaker 3: a better from my heart. Attack now there is only

1452
01:19:19,680 --> 01:19:22,360
Speaker 3: one person who can Beat. Samri and that Is Lord.

1453
01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:26,240
Speaker 3: Shiva so cut to another musical. Number Now Ron deier

1454
01:19:26,479 --> 01:19:30,439
Speaker 3: is singing to an altar Of shiva OR i think

1455
01:19:30,479 --> 01:19:34,439
Speaker 3: they were also calling this God Shiv, shankar Which i'm not,

1456
01:19:34,439 --> 01:19:37,400
Speaker 3: sure but maybe like a manifestation Of, shiva maybe Like

1457
01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:40,120
Speaker 3: shiva the destroyer of. Evil, Perhaps i'm not.

1458
01:19:40,160 --> 01:19:43,200
Speaker 1: Sure at any, rate this seems like the bright call

1459
01:19:43,479 --> 01:19:46,640
Speaker 1: Get shiva and on this that then we're dealing with

1460
01:19:46,640 --> 01:19:49,240
Speaker 1: a pretty, powerful supernatural evil force. Here we're going to

1461
01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:50,040
Speaker 1: need just a little.

1462
01:19:49,880 --> 01:19:52,240
Speaker 3: Bit of, help, right praying for The god's, help and

1463
01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:55,200
Speaker 3: we get cutaways to the surviving, characters but then also

1464
01:19:55,280 --> 01:19:58,599
Speaker 3: cutaways to like a bloody sheet which is presumably covering

1465
01:19:58,720 --> 01:19:59,960
Speaker 3: up the dead body of An. Ond.

1466
01:20:00,479 --> 01:20:03,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah AND i have to, say on paper or

1467
01:20:03,400 --> 01:20:07,479
Speaker 1: just us describing, this you might question whether it makes

1468
01:20:07,520 --> 01:20:09,800
Speaker 1: sense to throw in a religious musical number this late

1469
01:20:09,840 --> 01:20:12,680
Speaker 1: in the, film building up to the final showdown with the.

1470
01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:15,720
Speaker 1: Monster BUT i thought it it would. WORK i thought

1471
01:20:15,720 --> 01:20:18,519
Speaker 1: it really worked because the musical number itself has this

1472
01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:20,320
Speaker 1: way of kind of revving up and has this kind

1473
01:20:20,320 --> 01:20:23,200
Speaker 1: of rhythmic quality to it kind of works the people

1474
01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:26,519
Speaker 1: in the scene into a, frenzy you, know to unleash

1475
01:20:26,560 --> 01:20:29,120
Speaker 1: our would be monster, slayers and you feel a little pumped.

1476
01:20:29,160 --> 01:20:31,640
Speaker 1: Up you're, like let's do, this let's finish this, Up

1477
01:20:31,720 --> 01:20:32,479
Speaker 1: let's let's Get.

1478
01:20:32,520 --> 01:20:36,240
Speaker 3: Somri, ABSOLUTELY i mean AS i said, AGAIN i mean this.

1479
01:20:36,400 --> 01:20:40,920
Speaker 3: UNIRONICALLY i fully encourage more filmmakers to make horror movies

1480
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:43,960
Speaker 3: that are seriously scary but also have musical. NUMBERS i

1481
01:20:43,960 --> 01:20:44,679
Speaker 3: think that's a great.

1482
01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:47,479
Speaker 1: Idea, also it's probably a good way to overpower some

1483
01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:50,559
Speaker 1: of our Traditional western movie villains Like Jason. Vorhees how's

1484
01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:53,920
Speaker 1: he going to react to full blown musical. Numbers he's

1485
01:20:53,960 --> 01:20:56,000
Speaker 1: not gonna know it's. Him this is better than like psychic.

1486
01:20:56,040 --> 01:20:57,280
Speaker 1: POWERS i would love.

1487
01:20:57,360 --> 01:21:02,839
Speaker 3: That, yeah fully like a religion musical number before somebody

1488
01:21:02,880 --> 01:21:06,040
Speaker 3: goes up Against, jason where they're they're like invoking the

1489
01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:06,519
Speaker 3: power Of.

1490
01:21:07,200 --> 01:21:11,120
Speaker 1: Christ you. Know we had something kind of similar without

1491
01:21:11,160 --> 01:21:15,479
Speaker 1: the music In The Devil rides Out. Right they basically

1492
01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:19,000
Speaker 1: have A sunday school lesson before the big, confrontation just

1493
01:21:19,040 --> 01:21:19,880
Speaker 1: to set everything.

1494
01:21:19,960 --> 01:21:22,519
Speaker 3: Right we should mention by the way that the lyrics

1495
01:21:22,560 --> 01:21:25,919
Speaker 3: of the song point out the like remind the audience

1496
01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:29,479
Speaker 3: that the statue Of shiva is missing its. Trident. Uh

1497
01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:32,320
Speaker 3: and this Gives sanjay the idea that the way to

1498
01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:35,519
Speaker 3: destroy the monster is to use the, trisula which is

1499
01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:39,200
Speaker 3: which again was. Hidden it was in the hidden passage

1500
01:21:39,240 --> 01:21:41,559
Speaker 3: behind the painting on top of the trunk that had

1501
01:21:41,560 --> 01:21:44,360
Speaker 3: the head in. It and So sanjay And suman go

1502
01:21:44,439 --> 01:21:47,240
Speaker 3: looking for the. Trident so there's a bunch of more.

1503
01:21:47,240 --> 01:21:50,240
Speaker 3: Scares they're like looking around in the palace and they

1504
01:21:50,240 --> 01:21:54,000
Speaker 3: are screamed at by taxidermied, animals and samm. Reappears he

1505
01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:58,640
Speaker 3: chases them. Around he is about to in the in

1506
01:21:58,720 --> 01:22:02,040
Speaker 3: the very last, moment hipn ties and Vamp. Souman but

1507
01:22:02,240 --> 01:22:05,720
Speaker 3: Then sanjay sees that the trishula is hidden in the

1508
01:22:05,800 --> 01:22:09,240
Speaker 3: chandelier and he wields. It he Drives samri into his

1509
01:22:09,320 --> 01:22:12,280
Speaker 3: coffin and they trap him inside with the power of the.

1510
01:22:12,320 --> 01:22:15,479
Speaker 3: Trident and then the villagers come collect the, coffin take

1511
01:22:15,520 --> 01:22:18,320
Speaker 3: it to the village. Square then they Tie samary to

1512
01:22:18,360 --> 01:22:21,880
Speaker 3: the steak and burn him huge burning fire and the

1513
01:22:22,160 --> 01:22:22,600
Speaker 3: demon is.

1514
01:22:22,680 --> 01:22:26,479
Speaker 1: Vanquished, yeah they just they burn him, up And dad's

1515
01:22:26,520 --> 01:22:29,439
Speaker 1: there pumping his fist in the. Air the monster. Burns.

1516
01:22:29,680 --> 01:22:34,000
Speaker 3: Yeah in the, End ronvier Accepts sanjay because now the

1517
01:22:34,040 --> 01:22:37,840
Speaker 3: threat to his daughter's life has has. Passed so he,

1518
01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:40,479
Speaker 3: Says i'm proud of, you, son you destroyed the curse

1519
01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:43,040
Speaker 3: that haunted my family for two hundred. Years and then

1520
01:22:43,160 --> 01:22:45,519
Speaker 3: this is one of those cases where he says something

1521
01:22:45,560 --> 01:22:47,720
Speaker 3: that he just said again but In, english so he

1522
01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:49,600

1523
01:22:49,680 --> 01:22:52,280
Speaker 1: Son it's such a it's not such a sweet, ending you. Know,

1524
01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:54,439
Speaker 1: granted a lot of people died to get us, here

1525
01:22:55,280 --> 01:22:59,960
Speaker 1: but it's getting back into like just the straight thing

1526
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:03,280
Speaker 1: family melodrama aspect of. It it's a nice place to end.
