WEBVTT - Deep Cuts Horror Hit List #22 “Sinister”

0:00:08.720 --> 0:00:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Hey there, folks, it is Friday, October the tenth. And yes,

0:00:13.200 --> 0:00:15.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure there have been plenty of horror movies you've

0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:20.520
<v Speaker 1>watched and thought, nah, that'll never happen to me. Well,

0:00:20.600 --> 0:00:26.040
<v Speaker 1>this one just happened to me and Roeboch and welcome

0:00:26.040 --> 0:00:28.200
<v Speaker 1>to this episode of Amy and TJ. As we continue

0:00:28.200 --> 0:00:30.800
<v Speaker 1>on our horror hit list, as we count down to

0:00:30.880 --> 0:00:34.480
<v Speaker 1>our favorite deep cut horror movies, some that you might

0:00:34.479 --> 0:00:37.000
<v Speaker 1>not know about. These are some of our favorites and robes.

0:00:37.120 --> 0:00:41.120
<v Speaker 1>This one is a heavy hitter on the list, and

0:00:42.440 --> 0:00:45.000
<v Speaker 1>yes we'll explain our kind of connection to the story,

0:00:45.040 --> 0:00:47.440
<v Speaker 1>but this is not a horror movie for the faint

0:00:47.440 --> 0:00:47.760
<v Speaker 1>of heart.

0:00:48.080 --> 0:00:53.240
<v Speaker 2>No it is not. It is very intense and graphic

0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:57.880
<v Speaker 2>and blood curdling. I mean, I think that's the best

0:00:57.880 --> 0:01:01.319
<v Speaker 2>way to describe it. This one stays with you, It

0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:06.800
<v Speaker 2>haunts you, It makes you actually and if when you

0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:09.680
<v Speaker 2>do move, if you move into a new home, you're

0:01:09.720 --> 0:01:12.959
<v Speaker 2>probably gonna search the attic, some closets, maybe even the

0:01:13.000 --> 0:01:16.160
<v Speaker 2>basement for anything that could have been left behind, because

0:01:16.240 --> 0:01:21.560
<v Speaker 2>this movie speaks to that. And yes, we've recently moved.

0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:24.320
<v Speaker 1>Or often, or you might you said, people are going

0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 1>to look and maybe into the basement and into the attic.

0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:31.400
<v Speaker 1>I would argue that if you watch this movie, you're

0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:34.959
<v Speaker 1>never going to step into a basement attic again and

0:01:35.120 --> 0:01:39.319
<v Speaker 1>touch anything that looks like it has been there for a while.

0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:43.479
<v Speaker 1>It's this is a wild ride, but this is one

0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:45.560
<v Speaker 1>of our I mean, this guy's got to be a

0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:49.919
<v Speaker 1>top five as far as an actor you enjoy watching.

0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:51.040
<v Speaker 1>He's pretty incredible.

0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:55.040
<v Speaker 2>Yes, we're talking about Ethan Hawk and the twenty fifteen

0:01:55.080 --> 0:01:59.440
<v Speaker 2>movie Sinister and Man that is a good title for

0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:04.520
<v Speaker 2>this movie because I actually felt my stomach in knots

0:02:04.680 --> 0:02:08.000
<v Speaker 2>throughout this movie. You want to ski something well, but

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:10.760
<v Speaker 2>like there are people who are like, hell yeah, announce

0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:14.120
<v Speaker 2>it strange like us who get into that kind of idea.

0:02:14.160 --> 0:02:16.960
<v Speaker 2>We're wow, I've seen it all, I've watched it all.

0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:19.560
<v Speaker 2>You're telling me that this movie is gonna make me

0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:23.440
<v Speaker 2>actually feel something that strongly? I think that. Yes, the

0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:26.480
<v Speaker 2>answer is yes. The runtime is an hour and forty

0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:29.760
<v Speaker 2>nine minutes of sheer terror. By the way, rated R

0:02:30.200 --> 0:02:35.480
<v Speaker 2>horror mystery thriller is the genre, but the synopsis is

0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:41.280
<v Speaker 2>fascinating and as we mentioned, potentially real.

0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Yes, so here you go. The movie is about true

0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:48.960
<v Speaker 1>crime writer Ellison Oswald he's in a slump. He hasn't

0:02:49.000 --> 0:02:50.760
<v Speaker 1>had a best seller in more than ten years and

0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:54.480
<v Speaker 1>is becoming increasingly desperate for a hit. So when he

0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:58.800
<v Speaker 1>discovers the existence of a snuff film showing the deaths

0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:02.840
<v Speaker 1>of a family to solve the mystery, he moves his

0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:08.919
<v Speaker 1>own family into the victim's home and gets to work. However,

0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:12.320
<v Speaker 1>when old film footage and other clues hint at the

0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:16.320
<v Speaker 1>presence of a supernatural force, Ellison learns that living in

0:03:16.360 --> 0:03:18.000
<v Speaker 1>the house may be fatal.

0:03:19.480 --> 0:03:23.040
<v Speaker 2>Uh yeah, what could possibly go wrong? Let me move

0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:26.639
<v Speaker 2>my family into a murdered family's home so I can

0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:30.359
<v Speaker 2>write about it, but not tell my family that we're

0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:36.160
<v Speaker 2>moving into that family's home. That was immediate tension that

0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:39.200
<v Speaker 2>starts from the beginning of the movie, because you're like,

0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:43.480
<v Speaker 2>does his wife know that he's moving them to this home?

0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:45.760
<v Speaker 1>We watched this recently and I asked you several times,

0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:46.520
<v Speaker 1>does she know yet?

0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:49.800
<v Speaker 2>Not yet? Not yet? But you know, this was a

0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:52.760
<v Speaker 2>huge success at the box office. The budget was just

0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:56.680
<v Speaker 2>three million dollars to make the box office total eighty

0:03:56.840 --> 0:04:01.960
<v Speaker 2>seven point seven millions, so a juggernaut of a horror movie.

0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:04.320
<v Speaker 2>Especially I think back in twenty fifteen.

0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:08.480
<v Speaker 1>Now, the cast we mentioned, like Ethan Hawke is I

0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:10.160
<v Speaker 1>think he gets credit for how good of an actor.

0:04:10.200 --> 0:04:10.880
<v Speaker 2>He's amazing.

0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:14.280
<v Speaker 1>He is just so believable at this everyman quality of him.

0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:16.520
<v Speaker 1>You're rooting for him, and he always looks like he's

0:04:16.560 --> 0:04:19.200
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of pain. There's a motion to him alway.

0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:23.239
<v Speaker 1>I love Ethan Hawk but Fred Thompson, yes, Senator Ye,

0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:26.080
<v Speaker 1>he's in the movie, OK, Tennessee has a He's not

0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:28.200
<v Speaker 1>in there a lot, but he has a huge impact

0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:32.240
<v Speaker 1>when he's in there. Vincent Dinafrio, all of which he

0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:34.599
<v Speaker 1>was SVU for a while, Yes, Law and Order, Yes.

0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:38.360
<v Speaker 1>And then Claire Foley, who is powerful in her role

0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:41.040
<v Speaker 1>as well. Scott Derekson. I don't know his previous work,

0:04:41.080 --> 0:04:43.640
<v Speaker 1>but that's the director of this film. Rotten Tomatoes. I

0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:44.479
<v Speaker 1>was surprised to see this.

0:04:44.680 --> 0:04:47.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it only got sixty four percent and the audience

0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:50.600
<v Speaker 2>score just at sixty two percent, And it was interesting.

0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:55.559
<v Speaker 2>They put together all the critic critics from all over

0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:58.640
<v Speaker 2>and they call it the critic consensus. I actually was

0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:02.279
<v Speaker 2>a little confused by this a little bit, but because

0:05:02.320 --> 0:05:07.599
<v Speaker 2>it seems like it's a good critic synopsis, although the

0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:10.520
<v Speaker 2>score is less than what you would anticipate for a

0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:13.279
<v Speaker 2>movie like this. So here's what it reads. It's plot

0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:18.080
<v Speaker 2>hinges on typically implausible horror movie behavior. Yeah, I was

0:05:18.080 --> 0:05:20.360
<v Speaker 2>screaming at the at the TV a couple times at

0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:24.040
<v Speaker 2>the Ethan Hawk character like, get out, you idiot? Why

0:05:24.080 --> 0:05:26.640
<v Speaker 2>are you keep why do you keep watching that? Anyway,

0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 2>it's plot hinges on typically implausible horror movie behavior. But

0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:35.960
<v Speaker 2>we love that and recycles countless genre cliches, but Sinister

0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:40.400
<v Speaker 2>delivers a surprising number of fresh diabolical twists.

0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:42.960
<v Speaker 1>This is a jumpy one, this one. There are some

0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:45.640
<v Speaker 1>moments you have that surround sound up in the house.

0:05:45.680 --> 0:05:46.719
<v Speaker 1>It's going to mess with you.

0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:50.279
<v Speaker 2>So we've watched this movie several times. We rewatched it

0:05:50.480 --> 0:05:54.480
<v Speaker 2>just before recording this, and I was embarrassed how many

0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:56.960
<v Speaker 2>times I jumped, even though I knew it was coming,

0:05:57.320 --> 0:05:59.880
<v Speaker 2>even though I knew something was about to happen, and

0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:01.560
<v Speaker 2>still I jumped.

0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:05.599
<v Speaker 1>And it's not the jumps where the monster jumps out

0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:09.280
<v Speaker 1>and attacks and violence ensues. It's creepy stuff, just even

0:06:09.279 --> 0:06:12.599
<v Speaker 1>something falling with a loud noise accompanying it, or a

0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:15.240
<v Speaker 1>face that shows up, or a person that shows it's

0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:18.479
<v Speaker 1>surprising moments you aren't expecting and they throw you off

0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:20.000
<v Speaker 1>by giving you an image you weren't ready for.

0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:23.479
<v Speaker 2>We both mentioned how good the music is in this

0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:27.599
<v Speaker 2>particular film. The music is so good at building tension,

0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:31.159
<v Speaker 2>at creating some of the suspense. The audio track in

0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:35.159
<v Speaker 2>this film is just as effective as the visual. I

0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:38.320
<v Speaker 2>think in this one particularly, it was of note because

0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:42.640
<v Speaker 2>that was contributing significantly to my level of tension and

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:47.640
<v Speaker 2>terror throughout all of it. But it's visually also incredibly scary.

0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:51.000
<v Speaker 2>So we've got some critic reviews, and these are always interesting,

0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:54.000
<v Speaker 2>and I always like to either feel validated or outrage

0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:57.200
<v Speaker 2>at what the critics say. But most of them were

0:06:57.279 --> 0:06:59.279
<v Speaker 2>pretty good. I got a bad one in here. But

0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:02.720
<v Speaker 2>this is a slow build type of horror film where

0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:05.839
<v Speaker 2>most of the audience can see the endgame long before

0:07:05.839 --> 0:07:08.480
<v Speaker 2>the characters in the film, thus the screaming at the TV.

0:07:09.120 --> 0:07:11.920
<v Speaker 2>Even so, it's well crafted piece of work with some

0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:13.880
<v Speaker 2>genuinely scary moments.

0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:15.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it was a GIF. They said, I

0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:16.600
<v Speaker 1>don't think it's predictable.

0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:18.520
<v Speaker 2>I did not predict the end.

0:07:18.600 --> 0:07:19.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it's predictable.

0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:21.480
<v Speaker 2>I did not predict the ending at all, So I

0:07:21.480 --> 0:07:24.160
<v Speaker 2>guess someone who maybe thinks they know more or maybe

0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:26.800
<v Speaker 2>does no more, actually was able to predict it. I

0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:29.520
<v Speaker 2>thought this one was good to an interesting beast that

0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:33.400
<v Speaker 2>combines both classic and modern scares to create a film

0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:36.360
<v Speaker 2>that should have you whimpering in your seat by the end.

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:40.640
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it's uh, it grabs you and it won't let go.

0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:43.280
<v Speaker 1>There's not a lot of moments of relief in this movie,

0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:46.960
<v Speaker 1>even when it's not. You're not worry about the whatever, supernatural,

0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:51.920
<v Speaker 1>whatever thing is out there, even the moments with his wife, like,

0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:55.760
<v Speaker 1>there are some tense fights that are uncomfortable, and so

0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:58.240
<v Speaker 1>tension is there throughout. You get no relief, There is

0:07:58.280 --> 0:07:58.680
<v Speaker 1>no joy.

0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:02.800
<v Speaker 2>The only relief is from the sweet deputy who helps

0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:06.880
<v Speaker 2>Ethan Hawke in his investigation. And that was almost It

0:08:06.960 --> 0:08:11.760
<v Speaker 2>was so needed. There was this lighter, cute moments that

0:08:11.840 --> 0:08:14.560
<v Speaker 2>he created that we appreciated.

0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:15.360
<v Speaker 1>And you know what he was and a lot of

0:08:15.360 --> 0:08:17.840
<v Speaker 1>times was common sense. He was all of us like

0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:20.560
<v Speaker 1>he was our guy, because thank you for telling.

0:08:20.320 --> 0:08:23.960
<v Speaker 2>Him that, yes he's lost in his artistic writer world

0:08:23.960 --> 0:08:26.720
<v Speaker 2>and can't see truth from fiction, but this guy really,

0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:29.960
<v Speaker 2>like I did appreciate that character. I do want to

0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:33.360
<v Speaker 2>read an ouch one because I again I actually felt

0:08:33.360 --> 0:08:40.080
<v Speaker 2>outraged by this critique. This critic writes cheapened scare sequences,

0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:47.240
<v Speaker 2>an ambiguous monstrous myth, transparent characterizations, and a mixed bag

0:08:47.400 --> 0:08:52.120
<v Speaker 2>of a supernatural storyline barely put any sinister thoughts in

0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:56.920
<v Speaker 2>our heads worth contemplating. That is offensive if that's.

0:08:56.800 --> 0:08:59.360
<v Speaker 1>Your opinion, and this is what they are. These are opinions,

0:08:59.360 --> 0:09:00.920
<v Speaker 1>and I guess these are professional. I don't know if

0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:04.760
<v Speaker 1>that's a professional critic or not, but people have their opinions.

0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:07.880
<v Speaker 2>Those that was a professional critic, by the way, I

0:09:07.880 --> 0:09:10.920
<v Speaker 2>mean whatever that is, but yes, was labeled as an

0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:13.320
<v Speaker 2>official critic. Now there was a recent one. Again, I

0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:15.280
<v Speaker 2>love these because I do feel like some of these

0:09:15.280 --> 0:09:17.760
<v Speaker 2>movies that we have on our list, who weren't appreciated

0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:21.920
<v Speaker 2>at the time, have garnered more appreciation as time goes by.

0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:24.600
<v Speaker 2>So this recent one, just this past year, I liked this.

0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:27.800
<v Speaker 2>I can see why people like this movie and keep

0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:31.040
<v Speaker 2>bringing it up to us. It has it's got a

0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:35.720
<v Speaker 2>distinctive dark tone while still being very approachable for mainstream audiences.

0:09:35.920 --> 0:09:38.600
<v Speaker 2>It's like if the Crow had a baby with the

0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:40.120
<v Speaker 2>Nun from the conjuring.

0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:44.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh my goodness, Okay.

0:09:45.000 --> 0:09:46.760
<v Speaker 2>All right, the audience reviews I think are some of

0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:49.080
<v Speaker 2>the most fun ones because these are real people like us,

0:09:49.520 --> 0:09:51.160
<v Speaker 2>and most of them that I saw. There were some

0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:53.520
<v Speaker 2>of them were like whatever, dismissive of it, but these

0:09:53.559 --> 0:09:55.880
<v Speaker 2>were some of the ones that I really liked. Honestly,

0:09:55.920 --> 0:09:58.280
<v Speaker 2>this is one of the scariest movies ever. It's not

0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:01.840
<v Speaker 2>like The Exorcist or Hereditary, for example, but a total

0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:04.720
<v Speaker 2>different kind of horror movie. Yet it's super scary. And

0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:06.920
<v Speaker 2>I use horror movies to sleep on sometimes as the

0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:12.079
<v Speaker 2>background same, so I'm not easily scared. But this one

0:10:12.280 --> 0:10:18.479
<v Speaker 2>is scary. The score, the atmosphere, the subject matter, the cinematography,

0:10:18.600 --> 0:10:20.640
<v Speaker 2>and of course one of my favorite actors, Ethan Hawk,

0:10:20.720 --> 0:10:21.600
<v Speaker 2>are just perfect.

0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:24.720
<v Speaker 1>No, we didn't necessarily mention, but she brings it up.

0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:28.240
<v Speaker 1>An element that makes this particularly scary is the fact

0:10:28.240 --> 0:10:31.480
<v Speaker 1>that it's kind of a found footage movie and he's

0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:35.160
<v Speaker 1>going through this old eight millimeter film.

0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:41.360
<v Speaker 2>Something about that is hearing that the hum of the Yes,

0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:44.679
<v Speaker 2>uh okay, someone else wrote this is one of the

0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:50.600
<v Speaker 2>most creepy, disturbing movies I've ever seen. That's totally unbrand

0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:53.680
<v Speaker 2>And then here's another one. This is hands down one

0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:57.480
<v Speaker 2>of these scariest movies I've ever seen. It gave me

0:10:57.559 --> 0:11:01.360
<v Speaker 2>the same nightmarish feelings as the original Nightmare on Elm Street.

0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:05.280
<v Speaker 2>Worth a watch. Spoiler alert. Once you've seen some parts

0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:08.920
<v Speaker 2>of this movie, you can never unsee them, so agree

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:09.160
<v Speaker 2>with that.

0:11:09.960 --> 0:11:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there are some images. Haunting is a good way

0:11:13.000 --> 0:11:16.000
<v Speaker 1>to put it. There are some haunting images in.

0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:20.520
<v Speaker 2>There, disturbing, haunting, scary. This is scary like our last

0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:24.080
<v Speaker 2>movie Lake Placid. Not that scary. We thought we'd do

0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:28.760
<v Speaker 2>a complete about face and go really really scary with Sinister.

0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:31.280
<v Speaker 2>So why it made our list? Yes, that's it. It's

0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:34.400
<v Speaker 2>one of the scariest and creepiest movies we have ever seen.

0:11:34.679 --> 0:11:37.839
<v Speaker 1>And you this, Yes, this is one where this is

0:11:37.880 --> 0:11:40.760
<v Speaker 1>an event. This is an event for you to sit

0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:44.480
<v Speaker 1>and enjoy and be prepared. Always say we've been talking

0:11:44.480 --> 0:11:48.360
<v Speaker 1>about through this series, people watch other movies, you experience

0:11:48.679 --> 0:11:51.720
<v Speaker 1>a horror movie, and this one hits everything. The sound,

0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:55.199
<v Speaker 1>the sight, Your heart rate's gonna go up. You are

0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:56.160
<v Speaker 1>immersed in this.

0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:58.520
<v Speaker 2>Movie, and you're not just under threat when you're watching

0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:02.000
<v Speaker 2>this movie, you're imagining your entire family. Isn't the threat,

0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:04.760
<v Speaker 2>and that's what makes it so scary. This isn't just

0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:08.440
<v Speaker 2>about you facing evil. This is about you placing evil

0:12:09.240 --> 0:12:11.760
<v Speaker 2>in the home, or you putting your family in harms

0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:15.360
<v Speaker 2>a way that is part of the scariness of this movie. Now,

0:12:15.640 --> 0:12:18.160
<v Speaker 2>when we come back, we're gonna tell you about our

0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:24.040
<v Speaker 2>own Sinister experience, and then we'll talk about who it's for,

0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:27.120
<v Speaker 2>who it's not for, what you should pair it with,

0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:30.960
<v Speaker 2>and of course give you a tease for the next

0:12:31.120 --> 0:12:45.960
<v Speaker 2>movie on our list, And we continue with number twenty

0:12:46.320 --> 0:12:50.720
<v Speaker 2>two on our list, Schonder, keep counting there. Sinister one

0:12:50.760 --> 0:12:55.240
<v Speaker 2>of these scariest movies we have ever seen in our lives.

0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:58.400
<v Speaker 2>And it just came top of mind to us as

0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:01.680
<v Speaker 2>we just moved a few weeks ago. I ended up

0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:05.240
<v Speaker 2>being away and you ended up sending me a text

0:13:05.240 --> 0:13:09.720
<v Speaker 2>about something you found buried deep in a closet.

0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:12.280
<v Speaker 1>So the uh, yes, we were talking about Sinister. The

0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:14.440
<v Speaker 1>whole premise of the movie, he moves his family to

0:13:14.480 --> 0:13:17.120
<v Speaker 1>this home where these horrific murders took place, and then

0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:21.840
<v Speaker 1>he finds all this stuff, this old Super eight film

0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:24.800
<v Speaker 1>in the basement, and he starts going through it, and

0:13:24.880 --> 0:13:28.880
<v Speaker 1>some disturbing stuff is on all this film. Obviously Robes

0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:31.760
<v Speaker 1>and I we've been familiar with this movie four years years,

0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:35.320
<v Speaker 1>so that's always in the back. We're just aware of that. So, yes,

0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:40.960
<v Speaker 1>we moved not too terribly long ago, and you did

0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:44.479
<v Speaker 1>not spend well, we didn't spend the first month almost

0:13:44.800 --> 0:13:48.920
<v Speaker 1>in the apartment together because you were traveling. Then we

0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:52.160
<v Speaker 1>were traveling fine, but one of those weekends where I'm

0:13:52.240 --> 0:13:56.400
<v Speaker 1>getting everything settled in, we have a storage closet and

0:13:56.600 --> 0:13:59.559
<v Speaker 1>the top shell, I mean the high ceilings, but the

0:13:59.600 --> 0:14:04.080
<v Speaker 1>top shelf and in the very very back, like tucked away.

0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:07.760
<v Speaker 1>How would you describe that box. It's a metal It's

0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:09.800
<v Speaker 1>almost a thin toolbox, is.

0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:13.960
<v Speaker 2>How it's It looks like a metal, thin baby blue toolbox,

0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:17.959
<v Speaker 2>and just by the color and materials used, you can

0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:20.320
<v Speaker 2>tell it's old. It was in good condition, but it

0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:22.720
<v Speaker 2>looked like it was from something from the nineteen fifties.

0:14:23.560 --> 0:14:25.920
<v Speaker 1>And so I only discovered I couldn't see it from

0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:28.480
<v Speaker 1>where it was because it was just so far up high.

0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:30.080
<v Speaker 1>But I was trying to put another box up there

0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:31.400
<v Speaker 1>and it wouldn't go all the way in, so I

0:14:31.400 --> 0:14:32.720
<v Speaker 1>had to go get a ladder and see what it was,

0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:35.040
<v Speaker 1>and sure enough it was that. Now I am trying

0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:38.000
<v Speaker 1>to look up. I'm trying to remember what my messages

0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:41.360
<v Speaker 1>were to you at the time that this happened, because

0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:44.920
<v Speaker 1>it freaked me out terribly. I opened this box, and

0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:51.720
<v Speaker 1>there are perfectly organized in their slides, these picture slides,

0:14:51.960 --> 0:14:55.160
<v Speaker 1>and these things are some of them labeled with years

0:14:55.200 --> 0:14:58.320
<v Speaker 1>on them in nineteen, I think fifties and nineteen sixties.

0:14:59.000 --> 0:15:00.840
<v Speaker 1>And I held a few of them up to the

0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:05.040
<v Speaker 1>light and it looked like they were images of art,

0:15:05.400 --> 0:15:09.000
<v Speaker 1>like works of art. But then there were others that

0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:13.520
<v Speaker 1>you saw images of people. And I got through about

0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:17.400
<v Speaker 1>at least five of them, and I said, hell, no,

0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm done.

0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:24.040
<v Speaker 2>They were scary, are they or because of the movie?

0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:25.400
<v Speaker 1>No, we're freaking out.

0:15:25.440 --> 0:15:27.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm telling you, Okay, I've got it. Okay, you just

0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:30.160
<v Speaker 2>wrote yeah, I've got it all. Okay, here you go.

0:15:30.360 --> 0:15:32.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna read this, Okay.

0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:35.520
<v Speaker 1>So, yes, this is me. I'm home alone in a

0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:40.440
<v Speaker 1>home that hasn't been necessarily filled in yet. There's a

0:15:40.480 --> 0:15:44.720
<v Speaker 1>lot of space. So I was freaking out a little.

0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:48.800
<v Speaker 2>Bit, Babe. I found some creepy horror movie shit in

0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:52.720
<v Speaker 2>the house legitimately spooked me. Then you took a picture

0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:55.200
<v Speaker 2>of the box. That box was on the very top

0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:57.760
<v Speaker 2>shelf and tucked in the very back of the shelf.

0:15:58.000 --> 0:16:00.920
<v Speaker 2>Thought it might be a little toolkit. But it's filled

0:16:01.200 --> 0:16:05.760
<v Speaker 2>with picture slides. Yes, old ass picture slides of various things.

0:16:06.200 --> 0:16:08.360
<v Speaker 2>I stopped looking after holding a few up to the light.

0:16:08.480 --> 0:16:10.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm talking one hundred and fifty plus slides with the

0:16:10.840 --> 0:16:13.960
<v Speaker 2>picture is perfectly organized. Then you send me a picture

0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:17.400
<v Speaker 2>of a man standing with his shadow behind him, and

0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:19.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, I don't want to say weird, but a

0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:23.200
<v Speaker 2>weird looking woman behind him, standing in an awkward thing

0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:25.760
<v Speaker 2>with a weird shadow behind her. It's black and white,

0:16:25.800 --> 0:16:29.680
<v Speaker 2>it's from the nineteen it is actually it says spring

0:16:29.840 --> 0:16:34.000
<v Speaker 2>Training nineteen sixty five, And that sounds so much like

0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:38.640
<v Speaker 2>Sinister because it's like sleepy time, oh party with the date,

0:16:39.000 --> 0:16:41.920
<v Speaker 2>so it's like literally labeled the same way Sinister is.

0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:45.720
<v Speaker 2>And it's like this man standing in like perfect formation

0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:49.840
<v Speaker 2>with just like trunks on. It's weird. It looks like

0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:52.760
<v Speaker 2>it's by a pool. So I said, holy shit, it's

0:16:52.760 --> 0:16:55.640
<v Speaker 2>like that Ethan Hawk movie that is so scary and

0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:57.840
<v Speaker 2>cool all at the same time. You right back, is

0:16:57.880 --> 0:17:00.520
<v Speaker 2>it okay? That recursing here creepy is fun. I want

0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:03.520
<v Speaker 2>to throw them out, but I might get cursed. Oh god,

0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:09.440
<v Speaker 2>that's what you said, he said, Yeah, you were just

0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:11.600
<v Speaker 2>like And then I started zooming in on the pictures.

0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:14.120
<v Speaker 2>We I don't know. We can't probably put them online

0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:17.439
<v Speaker 2>because there's someone else's photographs, But if I can, please

0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:19.800
<v Speaker 2>tell you that these are the scariest photos I have

0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:22.600
<v Speaker 2>ever seen of people, I said, and I said, the

0:17:22.600 --> 0:17:26.680
<v Speaker 2>guy looks like Patrick Wilson he did in the movie. Anyway,

0:17:27.200 --> 0:17:30.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm telling you it was so scary.

0:17:30.560 --> 0:17:33.320
<v Speaker 1>Anybody else might have found those and thought nothing of

0:17:33.359 --> 0:17:36.719
<v Speaker 1>it because they haven't seen Sinister and they're not horror

0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:40.000
<v Speaker 1>movie freaks. We found the box, immediately think about Sinister

0:17:40.840 --> 0:17:43.280
<v Speaker 1>and say one picture is from the guy who was

0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:43.960
<v Speaker 1>enconjuring it.

0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:46.639
<v Speaker 2>True though, Okay, we have to find out who the

0:17:46.640 --> 0:17:48.919
<v Speaker 2>owners of these are because I would love to actually

0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:51.520
<v Speaker 2>just put If you guys saw these photos, I'm telling

0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:53.640
<v Speaker 2>you there's no one who wouldn't be freaked out. Even

0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:56.000
<v Speaker 2>if you hadn't seen the movie Sinister, they would still

0:17:56.040 --> 0:18:00.800
<v Speaker 2>be creepy people. Okay, it might just be degree, all right,

0:18:00.840 --> 0:18:03.639
<v Speaker 2>So this movie is for anyone who wants to be scared. Shitless.

0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:08.440
<v Speaker 2>Bottom line, you also have to be okay with entire

0:18:08.480 --> 0:18:10.800
<v Speaker 2>families being murdered. If you're not on board with that

0:18:10.880 --> 0:18:13.240
<v Speaker 2>in a horror movie, you should not watch this movie.

0:18:13.240 --> 0:18:16.760
<v Speaker 2>So yes, who it's not for anyone who can't handle that,

0:18:17.400 --> 0:18:19.720
<v Speaker 2>who doesn't like a lot of dread and foreboding, because

0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:21.919
<v Speaker 2>that's a huge part of this movie. And it's just

0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:24.720
<v Speaker 2>you have to have a tough stomach, and we have

0:18:25.040 --> 0:18:26.440
<v Speaker 2>we should say ropes because a lot.

0:18:26.320 --> 0:18:29.400
<v Speaker 1>Of people hear everything you just described, Like, why would

0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:35.719
<v Speaker 1>anybody appreciate want to see in God forbid enjoy a

0:18:35.800 --> 0:18:39.080
<v Speaker 1>movie like that? Well, because it is a movie experience.

0:18:39.520 --> 0:18:43.160
<v Speaker 1>You see obviously great acting, but there's great storytelling throughout.

0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:46.240
<v Speaker 1>Like you said, it's a great shot, it's a great music,

0:18:46.240 --> 0:18:48.359
<v Speaker 1>and it's shot in a cool way. It is a

0:18:48.920 --> 0:18:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, it is a fun experience. You will enjoy

0:18:53.040 --> 0:18:54.400
<v Speaker 1>watching this movie.

0:18:54.520 --> 0:18:56.359
<v Speaker 2>If you like that kind of thing, it should be

0:18:56.400 --> 0:18:58.760
<v Speaker 2>a caveat. We need that caveat.

0:18:58.840 --> 0:19:01.040
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of a family I know.

0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:04.360
<v Speaker 2>God, no, it's not. I would say that the other

0:19:04.440 --> 0:19:07.400
<v Speaker 2>thing just to try and defend our like of this movie,

0:19:07.440 --> 0:19:09.600
<v Speaker 2>because once you see it, you probably will judge us.

0:19:09.600 --> 0:19:12.760
<v Speaker 2>If you aren't into that, but there's so much awful

0:19:13.160 --> 0:19:15.159
<v Speaker 2>stuff that's going on in the world. It's it's a

0:19:15.160 --> 0:19:18.119
<v Speaker 2>form of escapism, and this might it just it's so

0:19:19.160 --> 0:19:22.520
<v Speaker 2>absurdly awful and supernatural too that you feel like it's

0:19:22.560 --> 0:19:26.760
<v Speaker 2>a departure from actual issues. But it could cut too

0:19:26.800 --> 0:19:28.360
<v Speaker 2>close for home for people. I just want to put

0:19:28.359 --> 0:19:31.000
<v Speaker 2>that warning out there. It is. It is a tough watch,

0:19:31.000 --> 0:19:31.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, and.

0:19:31.480 --> 0:19:35.280
<v Speaker 1>It does well for us. It's a wonderful watch, right

0:19:35.320 --> 0:19:36.840
<v Speaker 1>because this is what I want to be scared.

0:19:36.880 --> 0:19:37.000
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:40.560
<v Speaker 1>We have a difficult time sometimes getting scared and horrible

0:19:40.560 --> 0:19:43.160
<v Speaker 1>because we've seen so much. We know what's coming this

0:19:43.800 --> 0:19:44.880
<v Speaker 1>it's fun to.

0:19:44.880 --> 0:19:48.879
<v Speaker 2>Be scared, yes, so I guess it will. And in

0:19:48.960 --> 0:19:51.360
<v Speaker 2>terms of food drink pairing, I'm gonna go ahead and say,

0:19:51.359 --> 0:19:53.840
<v Speaker 2>have drinks before, have dinner before. I don't think that

0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:56.639
<v Speaker 2>this is appetite inducing. This movie is really tough, not

0:19:56.680 --> 0:19:59.919
<v Speaker 2>because it's so gory, but because the material is so

0:20:00.280 --> 0:20:02.720
<v Speaker 2>dark and sinister. So I would just if you're gonna

0:20:02.760 --> 0:20:05.440
<v Speaker 2>have snacks or drinks, just keep them non acidic. That's

0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:10.280
<v Speaker 2>what I would say. You don't want to contribute to

0:20:10.359 --> 0:20:13.360
<v Speaker 2>the bubbles. You're already gonna feel in your gut watching

0:20:13.400 --> 0:20:16.080
<v Speaker 2>this movie. That's just my two cents on this one.

0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:20.840
<v Speaker 2>So enjoy with all of that praise. All right, Our next,

0:20:21.160 --> 0:20:23.159
<v Speaker 2>our next movie, we want to go, Oh wait, where

0:20:23.200 --> 0:20:25.960
<v Speaker 2>can we watch this? We watched Sinister where I didn't

0:20:25.960 --> 0:20:31.399
<v Speaker 2>put that in there. I think you can watch it, Okay,

0:20:31.480 --> 0:20:35.600
<v Speaker 2>Hulu you can watch it, and Amazon Prime. You have

0:20:35.640 --> 0:20:38.800
<v Speaker 2>to have a subscription to either Disney Plus, but you

0:20:38.840 --> 0:20:40.600
<v Speaker 2>can always obviously all of these you can get on

0:20:40.600 --> 0:20:42.440
<v Speaker 2>Apple tv Vandego at home. But if you want to

0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:44.560
<v Speaker 2>get it for free O two B and if you

0:20:44.560 --> 0:20:47.399
<v Speaker 2>have a Disney Plus subscription of Hulu subscription, or if

0:20:47.440 --> 0:20:49.399
<v Speaker 2>you have an add on to Amazon Prime. So just

0:20:49.440 --> 0:20:51.199
<v Speaker 2>so you know, that's where you can watch it if

0:20:51.240 --> 0:20:54.680
<v Speaker 2>you want to be scared to death. Our next episode

0:20:56.040 --> 0:20:59.680
<v Speaker 2>is a movie that has one of our all time

0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:03.639
<v Speaker 2>face favorite horror movie actors in it, right, and I

0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:06.920
<v Speaker 2>believe the first ten minutes will hook you for the

0:21:07.200 --> 0:21:08.920
<v Speaker 2>entire movie.

0:21:09.480 --> 0:21:11.960
<v Speaker 1>That's a good, good.

0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:15.200
