1
00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:08,719
Speaker 1: Welcome to Stuff to Blow Your Mind, a production of iHeartRadio.

2
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:16,680
Speaker 2: Hey you welcome to Weird House Cinema. This is Rob Lamb.

3
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 3: And this is Joe McCormick.

4
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:21,919
Speaker 2: And in this episode, our Cat Week festivities conclude. We're

5
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 2: following up core episodes of Stuff to Blow Your Mind

6
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 2: as well as a midweek Monster Fact that all revolved

7
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 2: around cats, and so we of course had to choose

8
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,279
Speaker 2: a cat film for Weird House Cinema this week. We

9
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,279
Speaker 2: ultimately had had quite a few to consider, like are

10
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 2: we going to go with cat as ally, cat as Enemy?

11
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 2: But we ultimately went with a B cinema favorite and

12
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,480
Speaker 2: one that multiple listeners have recommended to us over the years,

13
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 2: the direct to video nineteen eighty eight or eighty seven

14
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 2: mutant cat sci fi thriller Uninvited. Not to be confused

15
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 2: with the many other films that are tiedled the Uninvited.

16
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 2: This is just uninvited.

17
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 3: What is it that's uninvited? There are many things uninvited

18
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 3: in this film. There, I guess there's a cat that

19
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 3: was not invited. There are also lots of people who

20
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 3: were not invited, and none of the boyfriends were invited. Yeah,

21
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 3: and there is there's an extra thing inside the cat

22
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 3: that maybe you could interpret us the thing that's uninvited,

23
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 3: like one of the people at least wanted to invite

24
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 3: the cat but didn't realize it had a mutant thing

25
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:28,679
Speaker 3: inside of it.

26
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, but then again, all cats are uninvited. They invite themselves.

27
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 2: They're calling the shots here.

28
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 3: Cats are not like vampires. They will not catch fire

29
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:38,559
Speaker 3: coming into a house uninvited.

30
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 2: You may invite them, but they may not accept it.

31
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 2: It's all up to them. So we selected this film

32
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 2: before we recorded our core stuff to blow your mind

33
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 2: episodes this week on the Folklora Cats of the British

34
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 2: Isles and the Cats of Cyprus, And I have to

35
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 2: say that I'm pleasantly surprised that this film managed to

36
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 2: line up at all with anything we talked about core episodes.

37
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 2: But you know, we have the idea here of a

38
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 2: cat is a kind of vengeful demon, and we have

39
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 2: cats on a boat. We spent the Cypress episode talking

40
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 2: a good bit about cats on boats.

41
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 3: That's right, trying to imagine Stone Age farmers getting all

42
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 3: different kinds of animals on boats to take them across

43
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 3: the sea to Cypress, and one of those animals would

44
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 3: have been the cat. I guess maybe you know, despite

45
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 3: how difficult it is known to be to herd cats,

46
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 3: I'd imagine it's easier to herd cats than to herd foxes.

47
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 2: Now, now, don't be confused, though, this is not a

48
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 2: movie you're going to learn a lot from. Uninvited is

49
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 2: not a movie with lofty, dramatic or thematic ambitions. It

50
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 2: is a creature feature, first and foremost, and one that

51
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 2: subjectively misses the mark in several ways, while also succeeding

52
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 2: in being just an amazingly fun and weird ninety one

53
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,080
Speaker 2: minutes of cinema.

54
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 3: I don't know who would say this thing misses the mark.

55
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 3: I think this is this is like what creature features

56
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,839
Speaker 3: were invented for was become this.

57
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 2: Well, when I say missed the mark, imagine that there's

58
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 2: there's like an archery target set up. Okay, the arrow

59
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 2: is is fired, and perhaps this arrow we can call

60
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 2: this arrow effective and horrifying creature design. Oh Okay, it

61
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 2: misses the entire target. But then it's a bullseye on

62
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 2: an adjacent target. Okay, and that's where we are, Like, Yeah,

63
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 2: the creature in this film is not the xenomorph from

64
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: Ridley Scott's Alien, I understand, but it is amazing in

65
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 2: its own right. I wouldn't change a thing about it.

66
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 2: It's it's it's a total gromblin picture like this. This

67
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 2: creature is on the same level as some of the

68
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 2: creatures from I don't Know, Goolies and so forth. It

69
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 2: has a triumph, the insult, comic dog, the energy to it.

70
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 2: So every time it's on screen, you're going to giggle,

71
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 2: You're going to laugh. And is that what the filmmakers intended?

72
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 2: Maybe not, but that is people loved. One of the

73
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 2: reasons people love this film.

74
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 3: I think I am starting to get a feeling of

75
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 3: Graydon Clark's sensibilities, and I think this was maybe supposed

76
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 3: to be funny in the ways that it is. I

77
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 3: think the moist puppet that appears repeatedly is it just

78
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 3: seems impossible to me that Clark did not recognize that

79
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 3: he had struck gold here with the potential comedic value.

80
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 3: But that does bring up something I wanted to get

81
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 3: into at the beginning. Uninvited is often described as a

82
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 3: killer cat movie, but I have to flag that the

83
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 3: actual creature that kills people is not the fluffy, cute

84
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 3: kitty cat that we see in most shots. You know,

85
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 3: so there is a cute kitty cat in the movie.

86
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 3: You know that people pet and hold and it runs

87
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 3: around and stuff, beautiful tabby cat. Yes, whenever it is

88
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 3: time for the beast to vomit death upon humankind, what

89
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 3: happened is that this cute kitty cat, the external cat,

90
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 3: opens its mouth and then we cut to an effect

91
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 3: shot where a wet, screaming secondary animal emerges from inside

92
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 3: the cat mouth. And this interior beast is represented by

93
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 3: a puppet that looks like a cross between a damp

94
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 3: weasel and pumpkinhead. And it is this creature that leaps

95
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 3: out and bites and scratches and kills and deposits poison

96
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 3: on the humans. So what is this beast inside the

97
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 3: cute cat? Is it also a cat? And I was

98
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 3: also wondering how does it turn back into the cute

99
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 3: fluffy cat after each attack is finished? Does it climb

100
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,279
Speaker 3: back into the mouth? It does?

101
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 2: There is you might have missed it, but there is

102
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 2: one scene where we see it beginning to crawl back in.

103
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 3: Oh, okay, I'm just forgotten that. Yeah, So I was

104
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 3: wondering though, are the interior beast and the exterior beast, like,

105
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 3: are they necessarily attached or can they fully separate? And

106
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 3: if they separate, can they both be independently alive? Or

107
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 3: can the exterior cat not live without the interior cat

108
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 3: or the interior whatever it is?

109
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 2: These are questions we cannot fully answer. Yeah, the outer

110
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 2: shell cat of cat thing seems to be dormant while

111
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 2: it is killing and rampaging, and then it crawled into

112
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 2: it like it's a cat suit, but dey sock just

113
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 2: sitting there. Yeah, but yeah, is that part of the cat.

114
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 2: Is it a host for this parasite?

115
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 3: We don't know.

116
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 2: I mean, the only other major bit of evidence I

117
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,279
Speaker 2: might turn to is the ending to the picture or

118
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 2: the ending to the main cut of the picture, But

119
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 2: we'll have to come back to that one.

120
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 3: So I want to mention I found online the Dutch

121
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 3: VHS cover which has a couple of good taglines, one

122
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 3: especially good one. I don't know if these would have

123
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 3: appeared on other national packaging as well, but at least

124
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 3: on this box. It has one tagline, which is cats

125
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 3: have nine lives, you only have one. Nice ends with

126
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 3: the ellipses and then exclamation one of the most cryptic

127
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 3: punctuation combinations. Then the other tagline, not quite as good,

128
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 3: is they paid for the holiday of a lifetime with

129
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 3: their lives.

130
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 2: Hmmm, that's rather inaccurate. I don't think anybody's paying for

131
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 2: a holiday of a lifetime in this No.

132
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 3: No, well, I mean I think that the Yeah, the

133
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 3: spring Breaker characters are initially looking for a good time,

134
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 3: but they it quickly goes off the rails. Like It's

135
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 3: not like one of these movies where everybody's just They

136
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 3: still think they're partying until Jason. The moment Jason shows

137
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,119
Speaker 3: up and wax him with an axe.

138
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is not the cat thing meets love boat,

139
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 2: as we'll get into when we discuss the plot.

140
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,679
Speaker 3: Though there is some Jason similarity. Like I was thinking

141
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 3: about how the cat often attacks and punishes people right

142
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 3: after they have sinned or done wrong. It does sort

143
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 3: of follow some slasher movie logic there where with the

144
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 3: cat as moral executioner. Not in every single case. Sometimes

145
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 3: some rather innocent people catch it, but it's mostly you

146
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 3: do evil and then the cat kills you, right, and

147
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 3: the cat is the judge. Okay, so my elevator pitch

148
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 3: for Uninvited is Garfield meets basket Case versus Gordon Gecko

149
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 3: all wrapped up in some Jason takes Manhattan.

150
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 2: Yep, that sounds accurate. Yeah, all right, Well, let's listen

151
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 2: to just a little bit of one of the trailers

152
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 2: for this picture, because there's, as you might expect, there's

153
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,719
Speaker 2: gonna be a lot of screaming and cat gowling, and

154
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 2: we can only take so much of that. But just

155
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 2: a little taste here.

156
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 3: They say cats have nine lives, you have only one.

157
00:08:52,240 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 3: A poisonous can. Now, how is that possible? Thing's gonna

158
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,599
Speaker 3: invite us? And we're gonna dialogue.

159
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 1: Uninvited, starring George Kennedy and Alex Cord.

160
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 3: You'll never look at a cant in the same way again,

161
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 3: all right.

162
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 2: So if you want to watch Uninvited for yourself again,

163
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 2: that's Uninvited from nineteen eighty seven or nineteen eighty eight,

164
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 2: depending on who's classifying it. Well, you can stream this

165
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 2: one in a number of places. But the vinegar syndrome

166
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 2: blu ray that we mentioned already is the ideal physical

167
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 2: media choice for this picture. The footage is scanned and

168
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 2: restored in four K from its thirty five millimeters original

169
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 2: camera negative, and it features a nice smattering of extras,

170
00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 2: including the ninety three minute alternate internation rational edit, which

171
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 2: is quite hard to find elsewhere. I wasn't able to

172
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 2: find it streaming anywhere, and so forth. It features an

173
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 2: alternate intro and outro, as well as the horrendous uninvited

174
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,839
Speaker 2: theme song by Chili Charles and Tom.

175
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 3: Gunn oh Man. It's so funny, absolutely terrible.

176
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:19,199
Speaker 2: This is one of those cases where it's like, yes,

177
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 2: you were right to cut this theme song for the

178
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 2: American audience.

179
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 3: It sounds like the theme music to a one season

180
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 3: running sitcom from the eighties.

181
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 2: Yes, it's terrible, like kat Thing was going to have

182
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 2: his own his or her own TV show.

183
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 3: Yeah boom, but doo do do so?

184
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a great disc. I like yourself many

185
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 2: years ago, rented this from Video Drome, the video rental

186
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 2: store here in Atlanta, and you know, as I was

187
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 2: returning it just yesterday, I ran into a couple of

188
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,839
Speaker 2: listeners and had a delightful little conversation. They were from

189
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 2: out of town. I'm not going to name them here

190
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 2: because I didn't clear that with them when I was

191
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,319
Speaker 2: chatting with them, but it was nice to run into

192
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,839
Speaker 2: a couple of listeners at Video Drome. We've heard from

193
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 2: a few different listeners from out of town who while

194
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 2: visiting Atlanta have made the journey, the pilgrimage to the Drum.

195
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 3: That's a beautiful thing.

196
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, so there's a non zero chance you'll run into

197
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,719
Speaker 2: me there, but you know, don't count on it. You

198
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 2: might catch me. All right, Let's talk about the people

199
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 2: behind this film, starting with the director, the writer, and

200
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 2: one of the producers. It's great And Clark. Sometimes I

201
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 2: have pronounced his name Grayton Clark, and I think that's

202
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 2: because he frequently casts Jodn Baker, and so I kind

203
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 2: of I kind of take the Jodon energy and create

204
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 2: the great On So I may refer to him as

205
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 2: great On Clark at some point here as well.

206
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 3: I think I hear it with the cadence of Raydon Chong.

207
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, that too is probably influencing it.

208
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 3: So.

209
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 2: Grayton Clark was born in nineteen forty three American director

210
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,679
Speaker 2: and writer that you might remember from past Weird House

211
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 2: Cinema episodes because we've covered two of his pick before,

212
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 2: both from nineteen eighty Without Warning, which was our first

213
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 2: episode of Weird House Cinema. And then we subsequently talked

214
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 2: subsequently talked about the return, so we talked about a

215
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 2: Graydon Clark proto Predator film as well as a cattle

216
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 2: mutilation thriller.

217
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 3: I think both of those movies have some ironic sensibility,

218
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 3: but they were both more straightforward attempts at horror than Uninvited.

219
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 3: I think Uninvited is he's cutting loose a little bit

220
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 3: more than in the other two.

221
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think it may be attempting to check

222
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 2: off some extra boxes, especially for international distribution, Like this

223
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 2: one has a certain certain amount of, I would say,

224
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 2: especially in the US cut kind of a PG sexploitation

225
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 2: quality to it, but in a weird way, like it

226
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 2: was like it was written and conceived for the most

227
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 2: part by like a twelve year old, a.

228
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 3: Lot of bathing suit antics.

229
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, bathing suit antics, and like, yeah, well we'll get

230
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 2: into it. But it has this kind of weird PG

231
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 2: quality that I really like. I mean, yeah, it's seen

232
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 2: plenty of exploitation films that are a whole lot sleazier,

233
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 2: and it's nice to encounter one that has pulled back somewhat.

234
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 2: So Graydon's Clark. Other film credits included let's se a

235
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 2: pair of black exploitation films. Seventy three's Tom and seventy

236
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: six is Black Shampoo, some horror comedy. There's seventy seven

237
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 2: Satan's Cheerleaders, and not one but two films featured on

238
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 2: Mystery Science Theater three thousand, seventy nine's Angels Brigade and

239
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 2: the nineteen eighty four jo Don Baker international cop film

240
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 2: Final Justice.

241
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 3: I had forgotten that Graydon Clark did Final Justice, especially

242
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 3: since we just recently rewatched the Mystery Science Theater of

243
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:46,319
Speaker 3: this one man. Final Justice is so much it is

244
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,959
Speaker 3: not anywhere near as fun of a movie as the

245
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,719
Speaker 3: three Graydon Clark movies we've done on Weird House. It

246
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,079
Speaker 3: is a step or two below.

247
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,439
Speaker 2: There's no speciative elopment to that one. As I recall,

248
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,079
Speaker 2: it's just an international cop film starring.

249
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,439
Speaker 3: It's just Jodn Baker running around Malta in a sheriff

250
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 3: suit that almost looks like one of those old Nashville

251
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 3: country music kind of outfits. Yeah, and just shooting bad guys.

252
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 3: And I remember he gets into prison like twelve times

253
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 3: in the movie. Yeah, that one.

254
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 2: And there's as I remember, the main thing I remember

255
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 2: from Final Justice, of course, is there's this great shot

256
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 2: like through Jodan's arm, Like you're behind him and he

257
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 2: has his hands on his hips and we're shooting through

258
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 2: the gap between his arm and his side. It's ridiculous. Yeah,

259
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 2: it's a little thing sometimes.

260
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 3: Unfortunately I had to remember it's not from Final Justice.

261
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 3: It's from Mitchell that has that great rift in the

262
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 3: in the mst where he's like digging around in the

263
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 3: shower in his apartment and there they go, what does

264
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 3: this thing do?

265
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 2: Jodn rest in Peace, Yeah, recently passed, but yeah, he was.

266
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 2: He was always a fun screen presence. All right, Let's

267
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 2: see other films worth noting from from Graydon Clark. He

268
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 2: did a couple of films that were made in post

269
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 2: Soviet Russia ninety two's Dance Macabre and ninety three's Russian Holiday,

270
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty three video game sex comedy named title Joysticks,

271
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 2: a nineteen eighty nine skinhead movie, ninety four is Dark Future,

272
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 2: and his last film, Star Games. In nineteen eighty eight.

273
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 2: He worked with Joe Don Baker on three pictures, and

274
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 2: he did tend to gravitate toward using a fair number

275
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 2: of older established actors who were working in B cinema

276
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 2: at the time, something we definitely see in today's film

277
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 2: and in general worked with a lot of notable B

278
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 2: movie actors of the seventies and eighties, including Wingshauser, Jack Palance,

279
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 2: Robert England, and John Kerodin. Not everybody gets to work

280
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 2: with John Garritty.

281
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 3: Most to oh weird that John Kedyin wasn't in the

282
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 3: movie we watched today, since he is in.

283
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 2: Most films, he was shooting three other films at the

284
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 2: same time simultaneously. I say so great and Clark films

285
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 2: are generally not consider good movies by most people. Virtually

286
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 2: none of his films crack five stars are above out

287
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 2: of ten on Internet movie Database. Not that that means

288
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 2: anything really, but these are B movies, often with a

289
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 2: certain and exploitive air to them in one way or another,

290
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 2: but they often strike that perfect cheesy movie balance.

291
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 3: You know.

292
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 2: It's a film that's for the most part competently made

293
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 2: in involving talented professionals, but a film that also makes

294
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 2: wild swings and doesn't land every punch, or at least

295
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 2: not in the way they were intended, but still results

296
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 2: in a very watchable and entertaining ride.

297
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 3: If I have a technical critique of Uninvited, the biggest

298
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 3: one is that too many shots are taking place outside

299
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 3: on a boat and it is so windy it is

300
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 3: hard to hear the dialogue.

301
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, apparently this was a tough shoot because on one hand,

302
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 2: there it's like NonStop cats. So they had a number

303
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 2: of cats playing the one cat in the picture and cats.

304
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 2: If you've ever if you know anything about animals and film,

305
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 2: you know that cats are notoriously difficult to shoot. Everyone

306
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 2: generally is like, yes, bring me a dog.

307
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 3: Any day.

308
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 2: A dog will hit its mark and do what you

309
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 2: want it to do.

310
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 3: You know. Horses are also a known commodity.

311
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 2: Cats you can try, you can see what you can

312
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 2: get out of them, but it's a wilder element, you know,

313
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 2: like cats. With cats, it's like working with you know,

314
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:25,959
Speaker 2: I don't know one of the more difficult actors and

315
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 2: out there, I didn't even know if there's a proper analogy,

316
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 2: like it's cats. Not only your cat's going to do

317
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,120
Speaker 2: their own thing, but cats often look like they are

318
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 2: doing their own thing in movies, even like a really

319
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 2: you can think of like really good movies that have

320
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 2: cats in them and the scenes in which you see

321
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 2: the cats or that lean to heavily on cats doing stuff.

322
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 2: It almost kind of throws you out of the picture

323
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 2: a little bit sometimes because like you can just look

324
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 2: at that cat and you're like, yeah, that cat is

325
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 2: just checked out. That cat's doing its own thing. It

326
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,879
Speaker 2: is not in the moment, it's not in the scene.

327
00:17:58,280 --> 00:17:59,479
Speaker 2: It didn't even read the script.

328
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,239
Speaker 3: I wonder if longtime directors could do a comparison, like

329
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 3: what is more difficult cat versus the most notoriously difficult

330
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 3: actor is like Lawrence Tierney or something like that. You

331
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:16,159
Speaker 3: know which one is more stressful on set? I don't know.

332
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 2: There's probably some crossover there in the experiences.

333
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 3: Oh.

334
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 2: The other difficult thing about the film thost Courses. Most

335
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 2: of it is shot on a boat. And I didn't

336
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 2: even think about this, but this is something the cinematographer

337
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,679
Speaker 2: pointed out in one of the Vinegar Syndrome extras. Like

338
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 2: that meant that when they're out on the boat, they

339
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 2: only have so much power, and that limits how much

340
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 2: lighting they can use. Yeah, and cats don't necessarily like

341
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 2: being on a boat either, so that also constrains their performance.

342
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 2: But cats, they was a this was a decision by

343
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 2: grade and to have cats in this picture. Apparently he

344
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,679
Speaker 2: was thinking about it being rats, which that would have

345
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 2: been scary. That would have made for a ridiculous puppet

346
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 2: and rats on a boat, you know. That's that also

347
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 2: has a lot of a lot to back it up.

348
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 2: But they said, no, it's going to be cats. It's

349
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,920
Speaker 2: going to be a killer mutant cat. Obvious John Carpenter's

350
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 2: the thing vibes to a certain extent here. Oh yeah,

351
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 2: but yeah, they went with the cat.

352
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 3: Now this makes me wonder what was the thematic seed

353
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 3: of the film, Like, what is the core element that

354
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,679
Speaker 3: they were trying to get down to. Is it boat?

355
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 3: Is it like this has to be a boat movie

356
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 3: and everything else was around that or was it obviously

357
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 3: you're saying it's not cat, but I guess it would

358
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 3: have been maybe a mutant creature from a lab. Is

359
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 3: that the core? Yeah?

360
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 2: I think the core was we're going to shoot it

361
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,439
Speaker 2: on a boat, and we need a mutant creature. We

362
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,160
Speaker 2: want to hit that sci fi horror zone. Okay, and yeah,

363
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 2: everything else they just kind of figured out from there,

364
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,879
Speaker 2: including you know, first finding the boat, then finding people

365
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 2: to wrangle the cats, and they did use them to understand,

366
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,119
Speaker 2: like a proficional professional cat wranglers here, this is not

367
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 2: just getting me a boat, give me some cats. So

368
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 2: you know, supposedly everything here is above board. But again,

369
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 2: even cat pros are going to only get you so far.

370
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 3: The exterior killer cat is very cute, and if they

371
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 3: were switching them out with lookalikes, I couldn't tell. It

372
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 3: always looked like the same cat to me.

373
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: I want to mention really quickly that the individuals involved

374
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 2: with the puppet cats that we see it's it's Jim

375
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,880
Speaker 2: Bolden born fifty six and Debbie Bolden.

376
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:26,400
Speaker 3: And these two.

377
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 2: Did like animal artificial animal effects on a number of

378
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 2: other films, including Loaded Weapon one from ninety three, Aceventurro

379
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 2: When Nature Calls from ninety five, and a ninety one

380
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 2: White Fang film.

381
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 3: So did they do the rhinoceros that gives birth to

382
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 3: Jim Carrey one hopes?

383
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they were animal makers inc. I don't know

384
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 2: if they're still around, but they were active for a

385
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 2: little bit there in the late eighties and into the

386
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 2: mid nineties. All right, let's get into the human actors

387
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,199
Speaker 2: a bit here. So I want to divide things up

388
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 2: into factions here, Okay, because essentially we have two main

389
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 2: factions and then an individual suspended between the two. We

390
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 2: have our corporate creepers, and then we also have our

391
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 2: spring Breakers.

392
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,120
Speaker 3: That is pretty much it. You've got your I guess

393
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 3: the Springburger is supposed to be like early twenties. I

394
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 3: think a couple of them mentioned being in graduate school,

395
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 3: so like grad students and adjacent friends who are just

396
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 3: looking to party, looking to go to the beach and

397
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 3: have a good time. And then yeah, you've got these

398
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 3: Gordon Gecko types who are out there just trying to

399
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 3: run some greasy deals and get away to the Cayman

400
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 3: Islands with the suitcases full of cash. Yeah.

401
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 2: And the leader of this faction is wall Street Walter Graham.

402
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 2: This is our sleazy, yacht owning, womanizing, money laundering employee, abusing,

403
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 2: charismatic millionaire dirt bag. Compare him to any contemporary figures

404
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 2: you like. And he is played here by Alex Kord,

405
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 2: who lived nineteen thirty three through twenty twenty one, probably

406
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 2: best remembered by many for his main cast role on

407
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 2: TV's Airwolf from eighty five through eighty six, but it's

408
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 2: credits go back to nineteen sixty one, did a lot

409
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 2: of TV, including episodes of Night Gallery, Mission Impossible, and Murder.

410
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 3: She wrote.

411
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 2: His film credits include sixty nine Stiletto, seventy two Is

412
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 2: the Dead Or Alive, eighty one's Goliatha Waits, eighty four's

413
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 2: Jungle Warriors with John Vernon and Sybil Danning, and ninety

414
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 2: five's Hologram Man.

415
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,400
Speaker 3: I have several thoughts about, well, all of the corporate characters,

416
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 3: but especially Wall Street. Walter Graham here is the big

417
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 3: boss of the corporate schemers, and he he has a

418
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 3: great look. For one thing, he has this just really

419
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 3: iconic mustache. Yes, But another thing I was thinking about

420
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 3: Robert I holed up a picture for you to look

421
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 3: at here. So this is supposed to be set on

422
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 3: a yacht in the Caribbean. Yeah right, it's in the

423
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 3: you know, it's in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean,

424
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 3: and so you and it's supposed to be warm outside.

425
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 3: But our corporate characters, this guy dresses in like a

426
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 3: wool sweat on his yacht. Are you seeing this?

427
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 2: Yep, yep, yep, He's wearing a sweater. George gets kind

428
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 2: of windy at night.

429
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 3: I guess so George Kennedy, who will get to in

430
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 3: a minute. He wears a suit jacket like the whole time.

431
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 3: Everybody else is just wearing bathing suits. Yeah.

432
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just it's he it's what he's comfortable in.

433
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 2: I don't know, Okay, Yeah, maybe he's cold blooded, you know,

434
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 2: he's the whole cold bloody Wall Street type.

435
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 3: Yes, he is reptilian.

436
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 2: Well I think a cord. Yeah, just completely nails it here.

437
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 2: He's believably charismatic and sleeezy. It's a fun performance. And

438
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:33,919
Speaker 2: you can't wait for this guy to get killed by

439
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 2: the cat thing. Yeah, and they save that for toward

440
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 2: the end. Yeah, it's good, all right.

441
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 3: Now.

442
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:43,919
Speaker 2: His right hand man and muscle is Mike Harvey, and

443
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,640
Speaker 2: he is played by the legendary George Kennedy, who lived

444
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:50,159
Speaker 2: nineteen twenty five through twenty sixteen. George Kennedy, of course,

445
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 2: won the nineteen sixty eight Best Supporting Actor Oscar for

446
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 2: his role in Cool Hand Luke memorable performance there. His

447
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 2: TV credits go back to fifty six and he did

448
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 2: a lot of it, including seventy five episodes of Dallas.

449
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:04,199
Speaker 3: Movie Wise.

450
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:06,880
Speaker 2: Many of you might remember him from nineteen eighty eight's

451
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 2: The Naked Gun and its sequel, but he appeared in

452
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,959
Speaker 2: all manner of projects big and small, prestige and schlock. So,

453
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 2: for instance, you'll find him in sixty three Charade, sixty

454
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 2: five's The Sons of Katie Elder, sixty seven's The Dirty Dozen,

455
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,360
Speaker 2: seventy five is The Eiger Sanction, and eighty one's Modern Romance.

456
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 2: But he's also in the Likes of eighty ones, Just

457
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 2: Before Dawn, eighty seven's Creep Show, two eighty eight's Demon Warp,

458
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 2: and just in multiple disaster films, especially from like the

459
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 2: seventies and maybe the early eighties. Always a fun screen presence,

460
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 2: he tended to play like blunt, straightforward characters, but could

461
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 2: go like tough guy with a heart of gold like

462
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,119
Speaker 2: in Cool Hand Luke, or like a solid heavy villain

463
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:48,880
Speaker 2: role as in this film This one.

464
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 3: I was a little confused about what his power level

465
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 3: relationship is to Wall Street Walter Graham. There's another guy

466
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,120
Speaker 3: we'll get to in a second who's definitely a henchman

467
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 3: like Albert, who we're about to talk about, is definitely

468
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 3: Graham's henchman. Can't quite tell with the Mike character here.

469
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, because at times he's speaking to Wall Street Walter

470
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 2: Graham almost like they're equal, like their partners, you know,

471
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 2: bossing him a little bit and reminding him about what's important.

472
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,640
Speaker 3: Yeah. So yeah, right.

473
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,880
Speaker 2: Hand man or partner. I think you could maybe push

474
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 2: it in either direction.

475
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,640
Speaker 3: There's a good scene where he it doesn't quite get

476
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 3: fully bitten off, but it looks like for a second

477
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 3: his leg is getting bitten off by a cat.

478
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,679
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, he gets he gets a pretty early attack,

479
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,720
Speaker 2: all right. And then yeah, Albert, this other character, who,

480
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 2: as you said, is definitely a hinchman of some sort.

481
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,239
Speaker 2: I thought maybe he was like a money man, like

482
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,919
Speaker 2: he's something. Maybe it's the glasses through me.

483
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's weird, strange character. So this is Albert, played

484
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 3: by klu Gooliger who lived nineteen twenty eight to twenty

485
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 3: twenty two. I love klue Gooliger and a lot of stuff.

486
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 3: He's the boss of the warehouse in Return of the

487
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,879
Speaker 3: Living Dead. Yeah, if you remember that, he's got a

488
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 3: funny role where he gets called in by his employees

489
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 3: because oops, they accidentally got a zombie in the warehouse.

490
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 3: And you know, there's one scene where he's having him

491
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 3: open the door. He's like, you open the door, I'm

492
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 3: gonna go stand back over here. But in this movie,

493
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 3: it's an unusual kind of role because he is a hinchman.

494
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 3: That is his role in the plot. He's like the

495
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 3: button Man, but he is Wall Street Walter's weird, neurotic

496
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 3: button man. He's like a cross between Gary Busey and

497
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 3: Lethal Weapon and George Costanza.

498
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 2: That's a good point. Yeah, Yeah, there's some definite comic

499
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 2: wrinkles to this character. So Klute Gooliger lived nineteen twenty

500
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 2: eight through twenty twenty two, and his career can essentially

501
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 2: be divided into two distinct phases. So his initial TV

502
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 2: heavy career this included a co starring role on as

503
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 2: Billy the Kid on The Tall Man from nineteen sixty

504
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 2: through sixty one opposite Barry Sullivan from Planet to the.

505
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,639
Speaker 3: Van Okay, one of the Spacemen.

506
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, he did one hundred and four episodes of The

507
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 2: Virginian plus he did all sorts of other TV shows

508
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,880
Speaker 2: during this time period. But then later in life he

509
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,880
Speaker 2: essentially became a horror movie staple in his own right, actually,

510
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,199
Speaker 2: beginning with seventy three's The Mystery in Drachioa's Castle, but

511
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 2: really kicking into high gear in eighty five with both

512
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 2: a Nightmare on Elm Street Part two and as you mentioned,

513
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 2: the Return of the Living Dead.

514
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 3: In Nightmare on Elm Street Part two, he is either

515
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,879
Speaker 3: the main character or the main character's friend's dad. I

516
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 3: think he's the main character's dad, And there's a funny scene,

517
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 3: if I'm remembering correctly, where he is attacked by a

518
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 3: possessed parakeet.

519
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 2: Oh wow, I don't often see that in these Nightmare

520
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 2: on Elm Street highlight videos that people put together online.

521
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 3: Not a lot of highlights come from part two. That's

522
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 3: not no, I don't know. I think that one has

523
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 3: been maybe assessed a little bit more favorably in recent years.

524
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 3: It does have a cool scene where Freddy like cuts

525
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,679
Speaker 3: open his own scalp and peels it back to reveal

526
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:06,200
Speaker 3: his brain.

527
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,920
Speaker 2: Oh all right, Yeah, that's why I don't think I

528
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 2: ever saw that one. Yeah, I think I've mainly seen

529
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 2: the original from Wes Craven, parts of some of like

530
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 2: the Dream Warrior era films and What New night Okay,

531
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 2: maybe I've seen I've seen New Nightmare, and then I've

532
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:22,679
Speaker 2: seen the remake.

533
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 3: They did several years back. Nightmare two is has been

534
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 3: notable for a long time for having pretty overwhelming homo

535
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 3: erootic themes, which for a long time I think was

536
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 3: sort of treated in the fan community as more a

537
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 3: source of comedy because they were seen as unintentional, kind

538
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 3: of unintentional, almost taken as like a kind of Freudian

539
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 3: slip thing. But I think more recently it's been read

540
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 3: a different way that maybe like, oh, this is just

541
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 3: sort of like what the thematic content of the movie is,

542
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 3: and that's kind of.

543
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 2: Interesting, interesting, Maybe I should check it out, all right,

544
00:28:55,640 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 2: So after a Return of the Living Dead, Gooliger here

545
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 2: and Let's see eighty six is Hunter's Blood eighty sevens

546
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 2: From a Whisper to a Scream, as well as The

547
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 2: Hidden eighty nine's Teen Vamp nineteen nineties, The Willies ninety

548
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 2: four's puppet Master five. His son, actor and director John Gouliger,

549
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 2: also cast him in his two thousand and five film Feast,

550
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 2: as well as its two sequels. He also pops up

551
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,360
Speaker 2: in twenty twelve's Piranha three Double D. I did not

552
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 2: say this one and then A couple of his final

553
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 2: credits were kind of a return to non genre work.

554
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 2: He's in twenty sixteen's Blue Jay, written by and starring

555
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 2: Mark Deplau, as well as a cameo in twenty nineteen's

556
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 2: Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

557
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 3: Oh, didn't catch him in the Tarantino movie I.

558
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 2: Helped, Yeah, he's I think it's just a very small

559
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 2: role cameo. It was like in a bookstore or something.

560
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 2: I do not remember spotting him, but he was in there.

561
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 3: Okay. So those are all the bad guys, all the

562
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 3: corporate creeps, but we also have a cast of more

563
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 3: likable characters, the characters of varying likability, the spring Breakers,

564
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 3: the twenties things that were just out looking to have

565
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 3: a good time. Yeah.

566
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 2: I'd say out of the spring Breakers, we ultimately only

567
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,920
Speaker 2: have like one really likable character. Yeah, and that is

568
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 2: going to be Martin. Martin is a biology major or

569
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 2: I forget where he is in his schooling, but he

570
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 2: is a future biologist.

571
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:18,479
Speaker 3: They say he's a grad student.

572
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, he's a grad student. Played by Eric Larson

573
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 2: born in nineteen sixty seven, an American actor who also

574
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 2: appeared in the nineteen ninety film Demon Wind and pops

575
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 2: up in one episode of TV's Angel.

576
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 3: At first, the main characters of this movie are some

577
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 3: of the last characters introduced. Did you notice that? Yeah?

578
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, because initially we meet Bobby and Suzanne, who are

579
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 2: a couple of really almost interchangeable spring breakers who are

580
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 2: wearing just like what just like basically just their swimsuits

581
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 2: and parts of an airbrush T shirt like they are

582
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 2: spring spring spring breaking. They are spring breaking hard here.

583
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 3: Yes, they're in I think the starts in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

584
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 3: They say they're in fl to look into party and

585
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 3: they are the ones who initially make contact with wall

586
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 3: Street Walter Graham and are invited aboard his yacht to

587
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 3: party some more, and that's how the whole thing gets going.

588
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 3: But then they also end up meeting some random spring

589
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 3: breakers grad student dudes on a like in a marina somewhere,

590
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 3: and then they're like, hey, come on this boat with us.

591
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 3: And obviously Wall Street Walter does not want all these.

592
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 2: Dudes, right, but he also for plot reasons, is like, Okay,

593
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 2: all your brand new boyfriends can come aboard my sex

594
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:36,120

Speaker 2: which we've previously covered on the show.

606
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 3: That sort of arena was sort of a creature effects showcase.

607
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, creature effects like boxing movie. Yeah, yeah, Yeah, it

608
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 2: was a lot of fun.

609

Speaker 3: Let's see.

610
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,600

Speaker 3: All Right, so they initially are going to go on

614
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 3: the OD, but then they also find some some cool

615
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 3: boys to bring with.

616
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 2: Them, right, and that includes Martin, who we already mentioned,

617
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 2: but it also includes Lance. Lance is the wrestler. That's

618
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 2: his whole thing is he's a little beefier than the

619
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 2: other two, you know, has like a lower center of

620
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:52,960

Speaker 2: eighty five's My Science Project and ninety one's for Linkenstein

623
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 2: The College Years, which I don't know much about, but

624
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 2: it looks oh, it looks horrendous. This is the jock

625
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 2: of the group. Yeah, yeah, he's the jock. And then

626
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:12,479
Speaker 2: we also have the preppy. This is the character Corey,

627
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 2: played by Rob Estes. Corey is a huge Walter Graham family.

628
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 2: He knows who this guy is. He's like, Oh, I

629
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 2: can't believe we're about to meet Wall Street Walter Graham.

630
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,360
Speaker 3: He says he's been on the cover of Forbes magazine

631
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 3: twice twice. Wow.

632
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 2: So yeah, Corey here is one of the least likable

633
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 2: of the bunch. But the actor who plays in Rob

634
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 2: Estas appeared on eighty nine episodes of Days of Our

635
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 2: Lives in eighty six and eighty seven prior to this film.

636
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 2: He went on to do one hundred episodes of Silk

637
00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 2: Stalk Stalkings in the early nineties, ninety six episodes of

638
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 2: melrose Place in forty six episodes of nine oh two

639
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 2: one Oho, and has continued to work in TV and film.

640
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 2: It looks like he was nominated for a twenty ten

641
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 2: teen Choice Award. They apparently had a parental Unit Award

642
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 2: category for like mom and dad characters. He was nominated

643
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 2: alongside co star Lori Laughlin, didn't win. I don't know

644
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 2: whose parents beat beat beat beat them out that year.

645
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 2: I like the idea of this award though, best parents,

646
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 2: like the parents in movies don't don't get enough love.

647
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 2: This needs to be an oscar category as well.

648
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 3: I think they should have an actor categories for best jock,

649
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,280
Speaker 3: best biology, major, best best Preppy.

650
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, absolutely, this would be great. If slasher movies

651
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 2: were more in style, you could have you could have

652
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 2: the Slashies. Maybe there is is there an award called

653
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:34,719
Speaker 2: the Slashies.

654
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:36,879
Speaker 3: If not, there should be. Yeah, oh, I see where

655
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 3: you could have like best nerd, best punk Rocker, best

656
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 3: best jock, yeah all that?

657
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, all right. So those are our two main factions,

658
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 2: and then we have a character that is kind of

659
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 2: suspended between the two because she's also young and so

660
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:52,880
Speaker 2: she has a lot in common with the spring Breakers,

661
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 2: but she works for for wall Street Walter Graham because

662
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 2: she is the captain of the boat. And this is

663
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,400
Speaker 2: Rachel played by Tony Hudson born nineteen sixty.

664
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, so this is the other main good character along

665
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 3: with Martin the biology guy. She's I would say the

666
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 3: movie actually does a pretty good job at making her

667
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 3: a sympathetic protagonist, especially since we meet her so late.

668
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 3: As I was saying earlier, like the characters that we

669
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 3: end up liking the most and are the survivors at

670
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:25,240
Speaker 3: the end are the ones we meet last.

671
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, the film is like, we have one more blonde

672
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 2: lady to introduce you to, and she's going to be

673
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:34,280
Speaker 2: the main one. So you can get a little confusing.

674
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 2: Tony Hudson's credits include supporting roles in nineteen eighty four's

675
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,320
Speaker 2: Places in the Heart, as well as leather Face, Texas

676
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,480
Speaker 2: Chainsaw Massacre three. This is the one that featured Vigo

677
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 2: Mortensen as one of the Sawyer Klan.

678
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,399
Speaker 3: Oh wow, okay, you know, I think I've never seen

679
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:49,799
Speaker 3: that one.

680
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 2: I have, but it has been it's been a long

681
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 2: time it was. I think this one was in many

682
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 2: ways kind of like a rehash of the first one,

683
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 2: kind of a a sort of a remake of the

684
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 2: original Texas Chainsaw Massacre with some you know, with some

685
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,400
Speaker 2: updated vibes. And yeah, that about the only thing I

686
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 2: remember is Vigo popping up as a cannibal redneck.

687
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:17,880
Speaker 3: This character is another reason Uninvited reminds me of Jason

688
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:21,760
Speaker 3: Takes Manhattan, because you may recall in Jason Takes Manhattan,

689
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 3: of course it's like it's a slasher movie on a boat,

690
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,359
Speaker 3: but one of the main characters is the son of

691
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,319
Speaker 3: a boat captain who is being like prepared to be

692
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 3: a boat captain himself. That's the same thing with Tony

693
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 3: Hudson's character here. She is the daughter of a boat

694
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 3: captain who has like inherited the family boat captain ship,

695
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 3: and she's you know, and like there's a lot of

696
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 3: drama about the fact that she's a boat captain and

697
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 3: wanting to be a boat captain on her own terms. Yeah.

698
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 2: So yeah, I would say this character is more fleshed

699
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 2: out than most of the others, and it's a decent performance.

700
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 2: I like Rachel in this picture. You're rooting for her, Yeah,

701
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 2: even though she is forced to make some ethical compromises

702
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 2: at top.

703
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, the multiple times they're like, yes, somebody did fall overboard,

704
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 3: but we can't go back and look for them. And

705
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 3: here are the reasons.

706
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Two more credits I want to mention.

707
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 2: These are behind the scenes. Nicholas Joseph von Sternberg. It

708
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 2: was the cinematographer born nineteen fifty one, son of Silent

709
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:28,799
Speaker 2: and Sound Era Academy Award nominated director Joseph von Sternberg.

710
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 2: He did thirty one's Morocco, in nineteen thirty two Shanghai Express,

711
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 2: those were the nominated pictures. So the son here, Nicholas

712
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:39,680
Speaker 2: Joseph von Sternberg grew up in the filmmaking business, and

713
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 2: among his best mainstream films are probably Let's See Texasville

714
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 2: from nineteen ninety, directed by Peter Bogdanovich, and Crime and

715
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 2: Punishment from two thousand and two. This was one was

716
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:53,319
Speaker 2: directed by Menahem Golan who directed The Apple. But it

717
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,440
Speaker 2: had a great cast. They had like Vanessa Redgraves and

718
00:37:55,760 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 2: John Hurt and so forth. But Sternberg von Sternberg, the

719
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 2: the younger here, also worked on a load of B movies,

720
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 2: seventy five's Dolomite, seventy nine's Tourist Trap, Graydon Clark's Wacko

721
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 2: from eighty two Joysticks, eighty four's Jungle Warriors, Final Justice,

722
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 2: Dark Future, Star Games, and more, and then finally, the

723
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 2: score for this picture is by Dan Slider. Dates not

724
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:21,879
Speaker 2: public record as far as I could tell. He also

725
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 2: scored eighty eight's Demonwarp, which also starred George Kennedy. This

726
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 2: was his first Grade and Clark picture, but he'd work

727
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 2: with him several more times, and even has a story

728
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 2: credit on ninety four's Dark Future.

729
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 3: I think I have not seen Demon Warp, but have

730
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 3: been been circling it for a while. One night that'll happen.

731
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 2: So the score here, I thought it was fun and effective.

732
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,799
Speaker 2: The main thing that really struck me is they keep

733
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 2: using that labyrinth style synth cascade effect. We've talked about

734
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 2: this before, it's popped up in other pictures. Did we

735
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:55,719
Speaker 2: ever determine what the name for this is?

736
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:56,440
Speaker 1: Oh?

737
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,399
Speaker 3: Were you talking about the whole tone scale? Yeah? Yeah,

738
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,440
Speaker 3: I think that's it. Okay, that did come up, and

739
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,080
Speaker 3: the listener contributed to our trying to find the name

740
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 3: for that but yes, where it's like it's not really

741
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 3: any actual key in music, so it produces this kind

742
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 3: of weird, ambiguous feeling.

743
00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I generally associate with any time Jarth is doing

744
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 2: something in Labyrinth, we get that effect, and anytime the

745
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 2: cat is doing anything suspicious in this picture, we also

746
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:25,240
Speaker 2: get that effect.

747
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,919
Speaker 3: All right, you ready to look at the plot? Let's

748
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:41,280
Speaker 3: do it. Well. You always want to begin a movie

749
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:44,240
Speaker 3: with a strong image at the top to establish themes.

750
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,439
Speaker 3: You know, what should people be thinking about? And here

751
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 3: they chose an office building? You know, there you go, Yeah,

752
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 3: a cat office building?

753
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:57,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean this is the last movie

754
00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,720
Speaker 2: we discussed in Weird House Cinema also had an evil

755
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 2: in this office building, so you know it lets us

756
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 2: know that corporations are up to no good right off

757
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 2: the bat.

758
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 3: Oh well, I guess that's true. Yeah we have we

759
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 3: have a theme of business malfeasans. Sure. But so after this,

760
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 3: we go inside and there are a couple of doctors

761
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 3: examining an X ray. The bones in the image do

762
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,960
Speaker 3: not look human, so maybe this is some kind of animal.

763
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 3: What animal could it be? And one of the doctors

764
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 3: says there is a mass growing inside the subject maybe

765
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:32,200
Speaker 3: a tumor maybe a teratoma. The other the other doctor

766
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,399
Speaker 3: seems perplexed. He says he's never seen anything like this,

767
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 3: and he's like, well, we got to just bring the

768
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 3: subject in. We'll cut it open and we'll see what's

769
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 3: what's growing in there. And I was looking at this doctor.

770
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:44,240
Speaker 3: I was like, is this Gradon Clark.

771
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,399
Speaker 2: It totally is Gradon Clark. Yeah, okay, yeah, he's now.

772
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 2: He's only present in the intro for the US cut

773
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,959
Speaker 2: of the film. The international cut has a shortened intro

774
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 2: where we don't we don't get this particular scene, but

775
00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 2: in the international version of the film, he does factor

776
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 2: in to the outro, presumably playing a different character.

777
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,840
Speaker 3: So we see a guy in a lab coat go

778
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,719
Speaker 3: into a room full of cages and retrieve a cat

779
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 3: from one of the cages and bring it into an

780
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 3: operating room. Do we need any description for our main

781
00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 3: cat other than I think this is the variety we'd

782
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 3: call an orange tabby.

783
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, just an absolutely adorable orange tabby. I mean, I

784
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:29,360
Speaker 2: believe multiple orange tabbies playing this one cat character, multiple

785
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:35,279
Speaker 2: feline actors. Yeah, it is an orange tabby cat. Likely male.

786
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 2: I'm to understand most tabbies are male, though we used

787
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:41,759
Speaker 2: to have a female one. Memes would have us know

788
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 2: that all male orange tabbies share a single brain cell,

789
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,399
Speaker 2: and when it's not their turn to have the brain cell,

790
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 2: they do dumb things. I see, but beautiful cat, to

791
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:54,439
Speaker 2: be sure on the outside. On the inside, as we're

792
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,720
Speaker 2: going to see, there's something else going on.

793
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,360
Speaker 3: Right, So the doctors get out the hypodermic needle. Seems

794
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 3: like they're about to sedate the cat for surgery to

795
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 3: figure out what is that growing inside it. But suddenly

796
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 3: it just scampers off the edge of the operating table

797
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 3: and down the hall. There really were no precautions here,

798
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 3: and the guy's holding it and then it just runs away,

799
00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:14,400
Speaker 3: and they're like, oops.

800
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:17,680
Speaker 2: They've never done like. They didn't even have the door shut,

801
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 2: no doors open. Cat to the vat. They usually have

802
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 2: the door shut.

803
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,440
Speaker 3: Yes, so one of the doctors. But it then seemingly

804
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:29,479
Speaker 3: disproportionate to the level of lack of care. We just saw.

805
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 3: One of the doctors sprints after it. The other one

806
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 3: gets on the phone. This is a great and Clark

807
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,320
Speaker 3: he's on the phone going code red, code red.

808
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 1: U.

809
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:41,440
Speaker 3: He calls it by like a serial number has just escaped,

810
00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 3: and he's saying, use extreme caution radiation, security radiation. What.

811
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,239
Speaker 3: So the cat runs down a bunch of metal stairs

812
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:53,319
Speaker 3: in what looks like a cinderblock bunker, and we see

813
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 3: dudes in hazard suits chasing after it, the red lights flashing,

814
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 3: sirens going off, and what do you make of this

815
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 3: hazard suit? It looks I don't know, it looks like

816
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 3: a hood that's silvery, like a hood made out of

817
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 3: aluminum foil with eye holes and just like a big open,

818
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 3: frowning mouth hole.

819
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks like it. We're it's kind of like

820
00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 2: a saggy el santo. It's kind of the overall feel

821
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 2: that I get from this, but it's frightening, and the

822
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,880
Speaker 2: shot we get it feels like it's the cat's point

823
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 2: of view, like this is a terrifying image this would bring.

824
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 2: It makes sense that this brings the monster out of

825
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 2: the cat.

826
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,040
Speaker 3: Right, So the hazarmat guy's corner the cat. One of

827
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:37,960
Speaker 3: them shoots it with a dart gun, and then the

828
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:41,520
Speaker 3: cat seems at first effectively sedated. It falls down and

829
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 3: it's like it's going to sleep. But then as the

830
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:48,760
Speaker 3: handlers approach with a carrying case, the unconscious cat's mouth

831
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:54,960
Speaker 3: opens and a weird, smaller, much moister cat like puppet

832
00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:58,719
Speaker 3: emerges from the bigger cat's mouth. And then you see

833
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,560
Speaker 3: blood splatter on the wall, splatter across all of the

834
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 3: safety signs mounted on the cinder blocks. You hear screams,

835
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,919
Speaker 3: and this is our first cat attack. Yep, yeah again.

836
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,359
Speaker 2: Kind of kind of looks like a newborn cat, kind

837
00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:14,400
Speaker 2: of like a hairball, kind of like a lion. Definitely

838
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 2: a gromlin. Yeah, it's it's a delightfully hideous looking puppet here.

839
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,400
Speaker 2: And you know, maybe the hairball thing, maybe that's what

840
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 2: they were working on at this lab. They were trying

841
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 2: to genetically engineer a hairball free cat, and they created

842
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 2: a cat that has like a living hairball cat inside it.

843
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,320
Speaker 3: Right, the hairball becomes its own organism.

844
00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I can't help but suspect maybe this was

845
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:44,160
Speaker 2: subconsciously even a part of the monster's genesis and Grayton

846
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:48,279
Speaker 2: Clark's imagination. Like cats are always grow always puking up

847
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 2: gross stuff, and so and so it's it's it's a

848
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,600
Speaker 2: natural step to imagine them puking up some sort of

849
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:55,359
Speaker 2: a killer cat.

850
00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 3: So anyway, the cat once again in fluffy mode. Once again,

851
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 3: qu scampers out into the parking garage, and here we

852
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,279
Speaker 3: see the two doctors pursue it, and the security guard

853
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:07,960
Speaker 3: also they run out there and they proceed with a

854
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:11,479
Speaker 3: cat hunt among the cars while the cat scampers from

855
00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:12,240
Speaker 3: place to place.

856
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:14,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and there's gonna be a lot of the cat

857
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:18,719
Speaker 2: scampering from place to place in this film. Something one

858
00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:20,439
Speaker 2: of the things that I instantly loved about it because

859
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,800
Speaker 2: here's the thing, like, if you've ever been around cats,

860
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,880
Speaker 2: you know that they have different sorts of movements and

861
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 2: walks depending on what their aims are, you know, such

862
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,960
Speaker 2: as the way they'll creep while hunting something. You only

863
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 2: ever see the cat move one way in this picture,

864
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 2: like clearly that's the only way that the trainers can

865
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:39,720
Speaker 2: get the cat to go from point A to point

866
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:40,440
Speaker 2: B for the shot.

867
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 3: I think I think all shots are of the cat

868
00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:49,879
Speaker 3: scampering to an out of view food bowl. Yeah. Yeah.

869
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:55,239
Speaker 3: There's also a good exchange where the other doctor says, doctor, oh, well,

870
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 3: the Graydon Clark doctor's name is doctor Gray. He says,

871
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 3: doctor Gray, you saw what just happened in that stairwell,

872
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:04,840
Speaker 3: and doctor Gray is like, shut up, about that. Just

873
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 3: shut up about that. We've got to kill that cat.

874
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 3: So it's like they're trying to keep something secret here.

875
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,719
Speaker 3: I think maybe they're doing some unethical experiments. Who knows.

876
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, by the way, Green and Clark pretty good here

877
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 2: in this little director's cameo. Oh yeah, he did other

878
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:21,840
Speaker 2: acting roles, you know, outside of pictures that he directed,

879
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 2: so it makes sense. But yeah, I kind of liked

880
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 2: him here.

881
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 3: We should sometime on the show do a list or

882
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 3: a ranking of our favor of our directors who make

883
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 3: the best director cameos. I, for one, really love when

884
00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 3: David Cronenberg goes goes in front of the camera. Yeah.

885
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:41,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Cronenberg has had some really fun ones, including Jason

886
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 2: X where he is killed by Jason Boy.

887
00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:48,520
Speaker 3: He's very good, but also is like the creepiest character

888
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:49,560
Speaker 3: ever in Night Breed.

889
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Night Breed. That's what we might come back to.

890
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 2: But but yeah, occasionally you'll get a you know a

891
00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 2: lot of directors that have fun cameos.

892
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:02,160
Speaker 3: We're most recently talking about Corsese and oh, that's right.

893
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:06,799
Speaker 3: In Dreams first I was Dreams. Yeah, have there, But anyway, so, yeah,

894
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 3: the doctors and the security guards are running around. The

895
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 3: Graydon Clark doctor yanks the security guard's gun out of

896
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 3: its whole story. He's like, give me that. He's just

897
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 3: taking charge. But these these slobs are no match for

898
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,319
Speaker 3: cat thing. It picks them off one at a time,

899
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 3: and I was truly laughing out loud at just the

900
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 3: random meow sounds as they're running around in the parking garage.

901
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:32,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, just a build tension.

902
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:35,160
Speaker 3: There's one cool shot when when it's attacking one of

903
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,600
Speaker 3: them where we just see a shadow, a shadow of

904
00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 3: like a cat head opening two wide, the mouth opening

905
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 3: too wide, and then the wet puppet wriggling out in silhouette.

906
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 3: But of it kills them all. It kills Greyton Clark

907
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 3: as well, and eventually the cat gets outside and it

908
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:54,120
Speaker 3: runs out into the night. All right, So the next

909
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 3: thing is we're going to meet some of our main characters.

910
00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,319
Speaker 3: This time it is Bobby and Suzanne. These are are

911
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:04,319
Speaker 3: like early twenties spring breakers in Florida looking for where

912
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 3: the party's at. They're here to have a good time,

913
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 3: but it seems like the problem is they don't have

914
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,319
Speaker 3: any money and they don't have any hotel reservations. So

915
00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:13,680
Speaker 3: they're in town and they're just flying by the seat

916
00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:15,759
Speaker 3: of their bikinis trying to figure out what to do.

917
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 3: So they like go into a fancy hotel lobby to

918
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:20,839
Speaker 3: hang out, and then the manager tries to kick them

919
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,759
Speaker 3: out because they're not staying at the hotel. But here

920
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:27,720
Speaker 3: in this fancy hotel, they happen to meet wall Street Walter,

921
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:30,520
Speaker 3: the rich sleeze bag and I would say, the human

922
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:34,680
Speaker 3: antagonist of the film, who offers to help them out.

923
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 3: Why don't they just go join him for dinner?

924
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:41,080
Speaker 2: And yeah, and again they are just dressed in skimpy

925
00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:45,399
Speaker 2: swimwear and shredded airbrush t shirts at this point, it's

926
00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:47,920
Speaker 2: not even clear from the context. No, they do have

927
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:50,360
Speaker 2: some luggage. They do have some luggage. I have some bags.

928
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:53,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, But wall Street Walter tells them to leave the

929
00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,160
Speaker 3: bags in the lobby while they go go get dinner.

930
00:48:56,520 --> 00:49:00,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I love that he invites them in to

931
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:03,359
Speaker 2: just dine with him at this fancy hotel with them

932
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 2: just wearing their spring break get up, and you know,

933
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:08,760
Speaker 2: walking past all the other swells.

934
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:10,479
Speaker 3: It just kind of like give him a little side

935
00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:11,000
Speaker 3: eye over this.

936
00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:13,840
Speaker 2: So it's like he's a pig. Everyone knows he's a pig,

937
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,799
Speaker 2: and he seems really comfortable in that. He's like, yeah,

938
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:20,400
Speaker 2: I just grabbed a couple of young ladies, just you know, basic,

939
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,799
Speaker 2: off the beach, and I'm going to dine with them here.

940
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:26,440
Speaker 3: But I also like the kind of mental shortcuts this

941
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:30,520
Speaker 3: movie is making when it has characters arriving in town

942
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 3: for spring break and they're wearing bathing suits, like seemingly

943
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:37,239
Speaker 3: for the travel to get there. It's not like they

944
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:39,799
Speaker 3: would wear normal clothes to travel and then put on

945
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,720
Speaker 3: the bathing suits when they go down to the beach.

946
00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:45,400
Speaker 2: Well, the spring break bus just lets you out directly

947
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:46,879
Speaker 2: onto the beach, So you gotta be good. You gotta

948
00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:49,320
Speaker 2: be ready to go right right when it arrives.

949
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:53,319
Speaker 3: So let's see. The next scene is the part where

950
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:56,560
Speaker 3: George Kennedy include Gooliger show up in a chauffeured car.

951
00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 3: And then I had to put in a screen shop

952
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,360
Speaker 3: for you to look at here, Rob, what is the

953
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:03,640
Speaker 3: deal with the guy who opens the car door for

954
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:05,680
Speaker 3: them at the hotel? I guess this is a footman

955
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:10,799
Speaker 3: or a hotel worker of some companies, dressed like Midwest Dracula.

956
00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:13,560
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's got the big top hat. I don't

957
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:16,680
Speaker 2: know it definitely looked goofy. Though maybe it's accurate. Maybe

958
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:19,560
Speaker 2: this is exactly what was going on at fancy hotels

959
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:20,799
Speaker 2: in Florida at the time.

960
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:25,000
Speaker 3: Fort Lauderdale Hotel doormen like they wear a big red

961
00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:30,759
Speaker 3: k top hat. Yeah. Anyway, these characters here are Mike

962
00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 3: and Albert. Mike and Albert head into the restaurant to

963
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:36,399
Speaker 3: meet with wall Street Walter, and they are annoyed that

964
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:40,160
Speaker 3: he is he is getting distracted from their important crime

965
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:43,719
Speaker 3: business by trying to creep on these two women. So

966
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,279
Speaker 3: Walter departs with his associates, but he invites Bobby and

967
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 3: Suzanne to join him on his yacht for a party

968
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:53,319
Speaker 3: later on. So what's the business on the yacht? Well,

969
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:58,120
Speaker 3: our crime fraud exception trio. Here they have to meet

970
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:01,640
Speaker 3: with some other business guy to do some shady deals.

971
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:06,000
Speaker 3: It's never really specified exactly what they're doing, just general,

972
00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,240
Speaker 3: you know, corrupt illegal business stuff.

973
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:10,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, some sort of illegal money stuff.

974
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:13,879
Speaker 3: Yeah. The guy they meet with, he's more or less like, Hey,

975
00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:17,279
Speaker 3: i enjoy doing corrupt, illegal things with you, but now

976
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:21,000
Speaker 3: I'm worried about the SEC And they don't like the

977
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,560
Speaker 3: other guys don't like that this guy is worried about

978
00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:26,160
Speaker 3: the sec He's like, what if they send me to jail?

979
00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:29,200
Speaker 3: And the other guys are like, uh oh. So they

980
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:32,480
Speaker 3: get suspicious of Frankie the squealer here, and they decide

981
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:34,680
Speaker 3: that there's only one way to be sure that he

982
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:37,280
Speaker 3: never squeals. They've got to shut him up for good.

983
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:41,280
Speaker 3: And so Albert klu Goolger here he holds the squeally

984
00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 3: guy down and drowns him in the hot tub on

985
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 3: the yacht.

986
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:46,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean the thing that I was thinking

987
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 2: is like, they've got to use this hot tub later,

988
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:51,839
Speaker 2: like having a party. I've never owned a hot tub,

989
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:53,840
Speaker 2: but it's my understanding that they're a little bit sensitive

990
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:57,720
Speaker 2: and you can set them off by doing normal things

991
00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:00,719
Speaker 2: that don't involve murdering people in them. So I don't know,

992
00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:02,840
Speaker 2: maybe they's some They have a really good handle on

993
00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:03,680
Speaker 2: the chemicals here.

994
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:07,600
Speaker 3: Also, after out he makes Albert murder this guy wall Street,

995
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:10,120
Speaker 3: Walter is like, Albert, the party is in half an hour,

996
00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:12,960
Speaker 3: So after you've cleaned up this mess here, get everything ready,

997
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:16,360
Speaker 3: will you? Like? Wow, I really hope Albert washes his

998
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:18,799
Speaker 3: hands before he puts out the crew to tay. Yeah,

999
00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:19,399
Speaker 3: this is.

1000
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,879
Speaker 2: Why you really need a larger criminal organization so that

1001
00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:26,480
Speaker 2: you don't have goons that are having to do double

1002
00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 2: duty both cleaning up your murders and also putting out

1003
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:30,000
Speaker 2: your food.

1004
00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:33,239
Speaker 3: I was only hired to kill Frankie the Squealer. It

1005
00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:35,840
Speaker 3: was not in the job description to put out party trays.

1006
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:39,120
Speaker 3: Oh somewhere in here, there's also a random scene just

1007
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 3: where we got a check in with the cat. See

1008
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 3: what the Cat's up to? So a guy robs a

1009
00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:48,319
Speaker 3: gas station attendant who the gas station attendant was being

1010
00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:50,880
Speaker 3: nice to the cat thing. It was the guy was

1011
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:53,600
Speaker 3: putting out a saucer of milk for cat thing. Cat

1012
00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:56,279
Speaker 3: Thing was lapping it up. And while he's doing that,

1013
00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:58,839
Speaker 3: some dude runs up and like beats him up and

1014
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:01,800
Speaker 3: steals from the gas station register and drives away in

1015
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:05,280
Speaker 3: a pickup truck, and cat Thing jumps into the truck

1016
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:08,400
Speaker 3: after the thief. It's like the vengeful pull of justice.

1017
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:12,040
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, yeah. At this point, really we have no

1018
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:15,719
Speaker 2: reason to be against cat Thing. He seems to be

1019
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:17,280
Speaker 2: following his own moral compass.

1020
00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:19,600
Speaker 3: So while the thieves are driving away, he's got an

1021
00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 3: accomplice too. The thieves are driving away, the cat Thing

1022
00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:25,360
Speaker 3: pukes up itself and then attacks the driver through the

1023
00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:29,320
Speaker 3: back windscreen, causing the truck to crash. And this was

1024
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:31,279
Speaker 3: a laugh out loud scene for me because of the

1025
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:34,960
Speaker 3: sound effects in the truck scene. They had one glass

1026
00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:38,880
Speaker 3: breaking sound effect, you know, like a crash tinkle tinkle,

1027
00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:42,399
Speaker 3: which they just played on a loop multiple times as

1028
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:45,160
Speaker 3: the cars the truck is rolling down a hill.

1029
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, because otherwise it's very impressive looking wreck. Yeah, yeah,

1030
00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:49,920
Speaker 2: roll this truck.

1031
00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,760
Speaker 3: So now we're going to have our spring Breakers combined.

1032
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:03,480
Speaker 3: We're getting to a scene that has some of the

1033
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:07,120
Speaker 3: funniest dialogue developments I think in the movie. So there's

1034
00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:10,000
Speaker 3: like a scene at a restaurant patio overlooking a bunch

1035
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:12,640
Speaker 3: of docks with boats tied up, where we're going to

1036
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:16,240
Speaker 3: meet our boy spring Breakers. These are Lance and Corey,

1037
00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:18,600
Speaker 3: and they're hanging out together edge a table. Cory is

1038
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 3: of course reading the Wall Street Journal, and Corey says

1039
00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:26,279
Speaker 3: Fort Lauderdale at spring Break, no place like it? Agree,

1040
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 3: And Lance says, no contest, haha, and they high five.

1041
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:33,719
Speaker 3: They high five for that, and then Lance says, you know,

1042
00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:36,000
Speaker 3: let's go down to the beach and check out the action.

1043
00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:39,720
Speaker 3: But Corey says, my friend, the beach is for riff raff.

1044
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,040
Speaker 3: You want to find a classy chick, you go to

1045
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:45,400
Speaker 3: the marina. That's where the money is. Come on, everybody

1046
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 3: knows that. And meanwhile, Bobby and Suzanne are wandering up.

1047
00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:52,239
Speaker 3: I guess they already went to the yacht party the

1048
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:53,920
Speaker 3: night before, but we never see that.

1049
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:58,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, scene missing on the party. We'll see the aftermath

1050
00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:01,080
Speaker 2: of the party later, but the big it seems like

1051
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:04,280
Speaker 2: it just consisted of them going out drinking and dancing

1052
00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:09,000
Speaker 2: while I guess Walter and maybe his men like watch.

1053
00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:12,319
Speaker 3: On unclear, Yeah, unclear. Yeah, So the ladies walk up

1054
00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:14,000
Speaker 3: to the boy's table and they ask if they can

1055
00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 3: sit down, and the spring Breaker boys are thrilled, but

1056
00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:20,280
Speaker 3: then uh oh, here comes the drag. Their friend Martin

1057
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 3: comes to join the four of them, and Martin is

1058
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:26,040
Speaker 3: the biology major. He's like, hey, guys, yeah, I can't

1059
00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:28,919
Speaker 3: find any place to stay. The whole town's booked. And

1060
00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:32,359
Speaker 3: Corey's like, not now Hedgeworth. I guess that's Martin's last name,

1061
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:36,160
Speaker 3: not now Hedgeworth. We're busy. So his friends here think

1062
00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:38,319
Speaker 3: this guy is a real loser, but why'd they go

1063
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:38,759
Speaker 3: with him?

1064
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:40,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, this isn't one of those classic why are these

1065
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:41,680
Speaker 2: people friends?

1066
00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:48,000
Speaker 3: Moments? Yeah, yeah, exactly, the jock, the Wall Street journal guy,

1067
00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 3: and the biology major who only two of them seem

1068
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:55,080
Speaker 3: to like each other. Yeah, but anyway, after this, okay,

1069
00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:58,960
Speaker 3: so literally, I've told you everything that has transpired between

1070
00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:01,160
Speaker 3: these people, so I didn't eve anything out. Yea. So

1071
00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:05,080
Speaker 3: the girls they sat down. The boys are like, hey,

1072
00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:06,799
Speaker 3: this other guy is sitting with us. They have not

1073
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:11,120
Speaker 3: introduced themselves to each other, they've not traded names or

1074
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:14,480
Speaker 3: anything yet. Just the ladies arrive at the table, they

1075
00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:16,680
Speaker 3: ask if they can sit down. They sit down, and

1076
00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:20,120
Speaker 3: then Bobby says, last night we met this guy, Walter Graham.

1077
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,960
Speaker 3: He's got this great yacht. And then Corey says, wait

1078
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:27,440
Speaker 3: are you talking about Wall Street Walter? I mean, this

1079
00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:31,200
Speaker 3: guy is the best arbitrageur in the world. I mean

1080
00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:35,080
Speaker 3: he's made million He's made more millions than anybody. And

1081
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,800
Speaker 3: then Suzanne says, must be the same guy. You should

1082
00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:41,319
Speaker 3: see his boat. Bobby says, well, anyway, we're supposed to

1083
00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:44,120
Speaker 3: set sail this morning on a cruise for the Caribbean.

1084
00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:47,319
Speaker 3: Be gone a couple of days, maybe more. Why don't

1085
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:51,240
Speaker 3: you guys come with us. They have not traded names yet.

1086
00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:54,439
Speaker 3: They just they just sat down at the table.

1087
00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:56,479
Speaker 2: And they're just like, Hey, we're going out to sea

1088
00:56:56,640 --> 00:56:58,719
Speaker 2: with this guy, who you know up clearly doesn't have

1089
00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:02,560
Speaker 2: any ulterior motives, so come along with us. He'll surely

1090
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:06,600
Speaker 2: totally accept just three additional random dudes coming as well.

1091
00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:10,320
Speaker 3: Well. Suzanne introduces a logic here though. So clearly Bobby

1092
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,839
Speaker 3: and Suzanne are interested in this guy because he's rich,

1093
00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:15,080
Speaker 3: he's got a yacht, he can take them on a vacation.

1094
00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 3: But they're also not sure about him, so they are

1095
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:21,600
Speaker 3: recruiting some help here from these guys. Suzanne says, you

1096
00:57:21,640 --> 00:57:24,080
Speaker 3: can help us handle this guy if he gets out

1097
00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:26,800
Speaker 3: of hand. But then I was like, but why would

1098
00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 3: they have any more reason to trust these guys than

1099
00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:32,360
Speaker 3: Wall Street where they just met it. They just met them. Yeah,

1100
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:36,760
Speaker 3: but Bobby says, besides, I hear the Caribbean's perfect this

1101
00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:39,760
Speaker 3: time of year for swimming in the raw, and she's

1102
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:42,920
Speaker 3: grabbing Lance's leg though she does not know his name

1103
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 3: is Lance.

1104
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 2: I guess is that what they call it swimming in

1105
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:46,720
Speaker 2: the raw?

1106
00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:50,280
Speaker 3: I think that means skinny dipping. Yeah, so obviously Bobby

1107
00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:52,960
Speaker 3: is interested in swimming in the raw with Lance and

1108
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:58,440
Speaker 3: he's like, oh yo, and Corey dreamily. You know, he's

1109
00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:00,640
Speaker 3: got Wall Street journals in his eye and he goes,

1110
00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:05,440
Speaker 3: I am really going to meet Walter Graham. So our

1111
00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:08,440
Speaker 3: spring breakers make their way out to the yacht. On

1112
00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 3: the way, they hear some meowing coming from inside this

1113
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:15,160
Speaker 3: big storage bin on the docks. They go over and

1114
00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 3: open it up and there's the cat Yeah yeahs in

1115
00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:18,640
Speaker 3: this box.

1116
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:22,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, we didn't get every leg of cat Thing's incredible journey,

1117
00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:26,560
Speaker 2: but it managed to wind up here just as this

1118
00:58:26,640 --> 00:58:28,040
Speaker 2: crew is about to board the yacht.

1119
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:29,840
Speaker 3: Oh wait, but there is a thing I forgot to

1120
00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:33,720
Speaker 3: mention from earlier when the cat was watching Wall Street

1121
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 3: Walter's limo pull away from the hotel, almost like it

1122
00:58:37,080 --> 00:58:40,840
Speaker 3: was scoping him out. M you remember that? Yeah? Yeah?

1123
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:44,600
Speaker 3: Why though? Yeah, it's well, so we've established that the

1124
00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:50,240
Speaker 3: cat thing not always but usually attacks people who are sinful,

1125
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:54,840
Speaker 3: and so because Wall Street Walter is a particularly awful

1126
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:58,520
Speaker 3: and odious human being, maybe it's like drawn to him

1127
00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:01,000
Speaker 3: like a magnet. So that's why it's watching his car

1128
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:03,280
Speaker 3: and also how it ends up on the dock beside

1129
00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 3: his yacht.

1130
00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:06,640
Speaker 2: Mm. Yeah, or maybe he knows even more, maybe he

1131
00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:11,120
Speaker 2: knows that Wall Street Walter is a majority stakeholder in

1132
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:15,880
Speaker 2: the pharmaceutical corporation that created Cat Thing before.

1133
00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:18,080
Speaker 3: Wants to destroy him. That's a good theory.

1134
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:22,240
Speaker 2: I'm basing it on absolutely nothing, but that's what I'm

1135
00:59:22,240 --> 00:59:23,000
Speaker 2: pulling out here.

1136
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:24,640
Speaker 3: Well, wait a minute, this is a time for a

1137
00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:29,280
Speaker 3: good sidebar. Actually, what do you think is the intelligence

1138
00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:34,320
Speaker 3: level or sentience of the cat Thing? There are many

1139
00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:38,120
Speaker 3: things it does throughout the movie that almost feel strategic,

1140
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:41,600
Speaker 3: but the way they're filmed, it never makes it really clear.

1141
00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:45,880
Speaker 3: Like at one point, the cat Thing sabotages the boat engine,

1142
00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:49,000
Speaker 3: but it makes it look like that could be an accident,

1143
00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:52,960
Speaker 3: Like the boat just kind of it shakes because somebody

1144
00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:55,880
Speaker 3: shakes the wheel, and then it kind of raw like

1145
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:58,400
Speaker 3: jumps out of the cat's mouth and scratches a wire,

1146
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:01,560
Speaker 3: and then the engine is sabotage, and there's other stuff

1147
01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:04,160
Speaker 3: like that, but it's never quite clear.

1148
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:08,240
Speaker 2: Well, my answer, which is also going to be a

1149
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:12,520
Speaker 2: little vague, is that it clearly has Grimlin level intelligence,

1150
01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:15,640
Speaker 2: so it can do things that are smart and clever,

1151
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:18,400
Speaker 2: but it will also do things that are sneaky, even

1152
01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:22,320
Speaker 2: if they're stupid. So it's just it's just straight up

1153
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:25,920
Speaker 2: Grimlin level intelligence, like standard Grimlin, not brainy Grimlin from

1154
01:00:25,920 --> 01:00:28,480
Speaker 2: Grimlin's too, but just like standard Grimlin intelligence.

1155
01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:31,080
Speaker 3: Maybe this actually comes back to they all share one

1156
01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:33,520
Speaker 3: brain cell between them, and then the cat thing is

1157
01:00:33,560 --> 01:00:37,800
Speaker 3: in possession of the of the universal orange tabby brain cell.

1158
01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:41,120
Speaker 3: Then it quickly becomes sentient and it can strategize like this,

1159
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,360
Speaker 3: but then it again disappears. There you go again.

1160
01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:46,040
Speaker 2: The memes tell us this, so it must be true.

1161
01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:48,520
Speaker 3: So our spring breakers. They pull the cat out of

1162
01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:51,840
Speaker 3: the box. Martin removes a collar from its neck that

1163
01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:55,360
Speaker 3: says genetic laboratory, and he reasons from this that it

1164
01:00:55,400 --> 01:00:59,960
Speaker 3: may have come from a genetic laboratory. Then Suzanne fall

1165
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:02,000
Speaker 3: in love with the kitty cat. She's hugging it, and

1166
01:01:02,040 --> 01:01:03,840
Speaker 3: she insists they've got to bring it with them on

1167
01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:06,680
Speaker 3: the boat. But like, what if this is somebody's cat?

1168
01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:09,840
Speaker 3: I don't know, I mean, I guess the collar makes

1169
01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:13,080
Speaker 3: it look like it's a lab animal, but still so yeah,

1170
01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:15,360
Speaker 3: they just bring it on the boat. Oh and there's

1171
01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 3: a funny thing here where at first Lance the jock

1172
01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:21,560
Speaker 3: is really worried about getting seasick, and then about four

1173
01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:24,680
Speaker 3: seconds after he steps onto a boat, he vomits a

1174
01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 3: bunch of mellow yellow yeah, almost immediate barf gag, Yeah,

1175
01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:33,919
Speaker 3: translucent yellow liquid. So oh, next thing is we meet

1176
01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:37,640
Speaker 3: our the main last character we haven't met yet, Captain Rachel.

1177
01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:40,800
Speaker 3: We're on the yacht and there's a scene where Captain

1178
01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 3: Rachel is arguing with wall Street Walter. Walter wants them

1179
01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:46,480
Speaker 3: to leave immediately. There's kind of a sense that the

1180
01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:48,840
Speaker 3: law could be closing in on him soon, but she

1181
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:52,680
Speaker 3: doesn't know that, and she protests. She's like, well, we

1182
01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:55,280
Speaker 3: don't have any crew right now. I'm the only one here.

1183
01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:57,520
Speaker 3: And the reason they don't have any crew is that

1184
01:01:57,560 --> 01:02:01,240
Speaker 3: Walter harshly insulted and mistreated the previous crew. So they

1185
01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:04,720
Speaker 3: all quit. And then Walter is like, come on, let

1186
01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:07,400
Speaker 3: you know, come on, I yeah, just you can do it.

1187
01:02:08,880 --> 01:02:12,280
Speaker 2: And so this is why he is cool with these

1188
01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:14,720
Speaker 2: guys coming on board, because they're going to serve as

1189
01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:18,960
Speaker 2: the crew as they make their escape fleeing the SEC

1190
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:20,560
Speaker 2: on their way to the they went down on their

1191
01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:22,080
Speaker 2: way to the Cayman Islands, that's right.

1192
01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 3: So Rachel is sort of stuck here in the in

1193
01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:30,360
Speaker 3: the boat, captaining the situation, because does tell me if

1194
01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:32,760
Speaker 3: I'm getting some details wrong here. I think the way

1195
01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:36,320
Speaker 3: they explain it is it used to be her father's boat,

1196
01:02:36,520 --> 01:02:40,360
Speaker 3: but her father got in debt or something and lost

1197
01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:43,640
Speaker 3: the boat, and then he died, and she is now

1198
01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:46,800
Speaker 3: working as captain of this boat until she can buy

1199
01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:50,280
Speaker 3: the boat back from wall Street. Walter is that that's

1200
01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:52,760
Speaker 3: how I understood it. Yeah, and he like wall Street.

1201
01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:56,400
Speaker 3: Walter insults her. She clearly hates Walter, but she's kind

1202
01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:58,280
Speaker 3: of being a team player for now so that she

1203
01:02:58,320 --> 01:03:02,080
Speaker 3: can achieve her own boat related goals. That's right. Yeah,

1204
01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:05,520
Speaker 3: So our spring breakers arrive, Walter is like, oh, I

1205
01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:07,720
Speaker 3: didn't tell you could bring a bunch of random boyfriends

1206
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:10,640
Speaker 3: you just met at the marina. So he's trying to

1207
01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:13,160
Speaker 3: send the boys back to shore. But while they're in

1208
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:16,000
Speaker 3: the middle of this, klue Gooliger arrives with news that

1209
01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:18,960
Speaker 3: the SEC is looking for Walter. They want to search

1210
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:21,760
Speaker 3: his boat. So this light's a fire under Walter and

1211
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:24,280
Speaker 3: it's like, we got to go now, and Bobby convinces

1212
01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:26,240
Speaker 3: Walter that, yeah, like you mentioned, they can let their

1213
01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:29,520
Speaker 3: new boyfriends stay on board so they can serve as

1214
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 3: the boat's crew genius.

1215
01:03:31,560 --> 01:03:35,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a fun plot hook, you know. I could

1216
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:37,760
Speaker 2: see he's working in a Dungeons and Dragons campaign easily.

1217
01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:40,640
Speaker 3: So it's anchors away, and of course the cat is

1218
01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:43,080
Speaker 3: coming along. Walter also does not want to take the

1219
01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:45,800
Speaker 3: cat with him, but Suzanne is like, but he's so cute.

1220
01:03:45,880 --> 01:03:47,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're like, it's good luck to have a

1221
01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:49,240
Speaker 2: cat on board, which that's right.

1222
01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:52,480
Speaker 3: Yeah. So this is basically the end of the first act.

1223
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:54,680
Speaker 3: The pieces are all in place, and for the rest

1224
01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:57,680
Speaker 3: of the movie, the cat will begin to gradually pick

1225
01:03:57,720 --> 01:04:01,400
Speaker 3: off the characters on the boat while the humans try

1226
01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:04,920
Speaker 3: to figure out what's going on and react. So maybe

1227
01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:08,440
Speaker 3: we'll now go a little bit less chronological and just

1228
01:04:08,480 --> 01:04:12,040
Speaker 3: pick some scenes to focus on. The first night there

1229
01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:14,960
Speaker 3: on the boat is kind of party night where everybody's

1230
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:18,680
Speaker 3: drinking and dancing, and there's a scene where everybody's gathered

1231
01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:22,000
Speaker 3: around while wall Street. Walter regales the group with wonderful

1232
01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:24,760
Speaker 3: stories about times that he was great at doing deals

1233
01:04:25,280 --> 01:04:28,200
Speaker 3: and about times that he really showed somebody else whose boss.

1234
01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:30,760
Speaker 3: He's eating a banana throughout this, by the way, and

1235
01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:33,840
Speaker 3: Corey just adores him. He's like, Wow, wall Street Walter

1236
01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:38,480
Speaker 3: tell us another. Meanwhile, off to the side, Rachel and Martin,

1237
01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:42,800
Speaker 3: the two basically good characters, are playing backgammon and they're

1238
01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 3: quietly getting to know each other and they're talking about

1239
01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:50,240
Speaker 3: their backstories. And Suzanne is cuddling the cat, which, by

1240
01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:54,960
Speaker 3: the way, we have already seen vomit itself and sabotaged

1241
01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:58,520
Speaker 3: the engine earlier than this. That happened at some point,

1242
01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:02,160
Speaker 3: and wall Street Walter drunkenly comes over to insult both

1243
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:05,680
Speaker 3: Rachel and Martin, and you know, Rachel just kind of

1244
01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:08,960
Speaker 3: tells him off. But there's also a dancing scene here

1245
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:11,959
Speaker 3: that reminds me almost to Friday the Thirteenth Part four

1246
01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:16,080
Speaker 3: with Crispin Glover dancing. The dancing itself is nowhere near

1247
01:05:16,240 --> 01:05:19,320
Speaker 3: as weird as Crispin Glover's dance, but the framing and

1248
01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:21,400
Speaker 3: the feel of the scene is quite similar.

1249
01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:26,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, this is completely unbelievable, Like what is dancing?

1250
01:05:26,480 --> 01:05:29,520
Speaker 2: Like what do people do when they hang out? Let's

1251
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:32,200
Speaker 2: try and create it here for the camera.

1252
01:05:32,680 --> 01:05:35,800
Speaker 3: So let's talk about the death of Albert, the clue

1253
01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:39,800
Speaker 3: Goolager character. So Albert is supposed to be steering the boat.

1254
01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:43,919
Speaker 3: Rachel gives him instructions and leaves him there. But Albert, well,

1255
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:45,840
Speaker 3: he's steering the boat. I think he gets bored, and

1256
01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:47,840
Speaker 3: so he gets a bottle of wine out of a

1257
01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:52,320
Speaker 3: cabinet and he's supposed to be driving, but he's getting drunk.

1258
01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:54,960
Speaker 3: He's talking to himself a lot. He's like, oh, Albert,

1259
01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:58,040
Speaker 3: you're the captain now, You're the captain now. And he's

1260
01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:01,480
Speaker 3: also singing the battle hymn of the report. But why

1261
01:06:01,720 --> 01:06:04,240
Speaker 3: why that? Maybe because it was public domain, they couldn't

1262
01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:06,400
Speaker 3: think of anything else. Yeah, I don't know.

1263
01:06:06,440 --> 01:06:08,720
Speaker 2: I got the sense that the old clue here is

1264
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:12,160
Speaker 2: just hamming it up as much as possible before his

1265
01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:13,800
Speaker 2: inevitable death scene.

1266
01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:16,640
Speaker 3: Just having a belt of wine and singing Twinkle Twinkle

1267
01:06:16,720 --> 01:06:21,720
Speaker 3: Little Star. Then Rachel comes in and relieves him, after

1268
01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:24,520
Speaker 3: realizing that he has steered them far off course. He's like,

1269
01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:28,280
Speaker 3: get out of here. So clue Gooliger goes out wandering

1270
01:06:28,280 --> 01:06:30,480
Speaker 3: around on the ship and he I think he's looking

1271
01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:32,720
Speaker 3: for a storage box that has more booze in it.

1272
01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:35,280
Speaker 3: He opens one up and the cat's in the box.

1273
01:06:35,680 --> 01:06:37,520
Speaker 3: He's like, hey, cat, get out of the way, that's

1274
01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:40,360
Speaker 3: my wine. It gets the wine out and then he

1275
01:06:40,600 --> 01:06:43,080
Speaker 3: uncorks it and has a bunch and spits it on

1276
01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:46,640
Speaker 3: the cat. Oh wow, that was a mistake. Kitty cat

1277
01:06:46,640 --> 01:06:49,400
Speaker 3: doesn't like that. Kitty cat does not like that at all.

1278
01:06:49,880 --> 01:06:53,240
Speaker 3: And then we get the vomit self up vomit self

1279
01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:57,560
Speaker 3: up reaction and it attacks klue Gooliger and what a

1280
01:06:57,600 --> 01:07:01,240
Speaker 3: weird attext. So it goes for the throat. There's blood everywhere.

1281
01:07:01,320 --> 01:07:05,440
Speaker 3: But after the attack we see klue Gooliger's neck like

1282
01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:10,240
Speaker 3: his veins throbbing under his skin in this makeup effect,

1283
01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:14,040
Speaker 3: and I was like, whoa, what's happening here? We about

1284
01:07:14,080 --> 01:07:16,760
Speaker 3: to get some kind of transformation. Yeah?

1285
01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:19,720
Speaker 2: Same, I was like, he is about to mutate into

1286
01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:21,760
Speaker 2: some sort of abomination and now we're gonna have like

1287
01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:24,760
Speaker 2: zombies on board and a killer cat or is he

1288
01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:26,720
Speaker 2: going to turn into some sort of like wear cat

1289
01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:30,040
Speaker 2: thing or something. But as we'll find out, this is

1290
01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:33,160
Speaker 2: just the cat thing. Then I'm doing its work. It's

1291
01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:37,040
Speaker 2: like a high speed lethal cat scratch fever that drives

1292
01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:39,200
Speaker 2: you mad with pain and then the only solution to

1293
01:07:39,240 --> 01:07:41,400
Speaker 2: your pain is to leap into the sea and die.

1294
01:07:41,520 --> 01:07:45,160
Speaker 3: That's right. So unfortunately, klue Googliger does not turn into

1295
01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:48,200
Speaker 3: a cat person instead, it's just like his veins explode

1296
01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:51,080
Speaker 3: and he falls into the water splash. Yep. Now, in

1297
01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:54,840
Speaker 3: the aftermath of this, Mike and wall Street Walter find

1298
01:07:54,880 --> 01:07:57,760
Speaker 3: the blood everywhere, but they cover up Albert's death because

1299
01:07:57,800 --> 01:07:59,680
Speaker 3: Walter just wants to get back to the party and

1300
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:02,000
Speaker 3: he's like, we don't have time for this. We'll sort

1301
01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:06,120
Speaker 3: this out after we're free. And then the next day

1302
01:08:06,400 --> 01:08:09,360
Speaker 3: Mike and Walter act all surprised when it's discovered that

1303
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:13,200
Speaker 3: Albert is missing and there's blood everywhere. Also, by this point,

1304
01:08:13,240 --> 01:08:16,160
Speaker 3: the ship's engine is fully malfunctioning due to the cat

1305
01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:20,760
Speaker 3: things sabotage, and wall Street Walter convinces Rachel to keep

1306
01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:23,799
Speaker 3: sailing ahead instead of turning back to look for Albert.

1307
01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:26,080
Speaker 3: I was like, I'm just trying to remember. How does

1308
01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:28,799
Speaker 3: he convince her? I think it's just more boat related

1309
01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:30,160
Speaker 3: lever boat ownership.

1310
01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:32,799
Speaker 2: He's kind of like, like, you get us to the Caymans,

1311
01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:34,640
Speaker 2: I'm going to have so much money. I can just

1312
01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:37,880
Speaker 2: basically sign this boat over to you. And you know,

1313
01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:40,920
Speaker 2: if she she knows that this isn't right. I mean,

1314
01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:43,519
Speaker 2: Albert is missing and they should turn back and look

1315
01:08:43,600 --> 01:08:48,920
Speaker 2: for him. But she she is, you know, seduced by

1316
01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:53,200
Speaker 2: money here and by by the boat ownership. So Walter

1317
01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:55,479
Speaker 2: is able to sway her to his side and she's like,

1318
01:08:55,479 --> 01:08:56,439
Speaker 2: all right, we'll keep going.

1319
01:08:56,720 --> 01:08:59,680
Speaker 3: They also, I just remember this. They also convince her

1320
01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:03,439
Speaker 3: by dying and say that saying that Albert couldn't swim,

1321
01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:05,679
Speaker 3: so there is zero chance that he's still alive.

1322
01:09:06,160 --> 01:09:10,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, So she factors that into it and still sides

1323
01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:13,720
Speaker 2: with money over going back and looking for him.

1324
01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:18,280
Speaker 3: But Martin and Rachel are more inquisitive about what's going

1325
01:09:18,320 --> 01:09:21,839
Speaker 3: on here. So Martin takes a sample of the blood

1326
01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:24,760
Speaker 3: do they find on the deck, and he examines it

1327
01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:30,240
Speaker 3: with what equipment a sextant, A sextant, you know, for navigation.

1328
01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:34,280
Speaker 3: He uses like a lens on the sextent in combination

1329
01:09:34,439 --> 01:09:37,479
Speaker 3: with a magnifying glass to look at the blood and

1330
01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:40,639
Speaker 3: he's like, my god, this blood is at least five

1331
01:09:40,760 --> 01:09:43,400
Speaker 3: hundred times more bloody than any blood I've ever seen.

1332
01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:47,519
Speaker 3: It could only be a mutation. And she's like, what,

1333
01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:50,559
Speaker 3: but you're a biology major and he's like, no, I know,

1334
01:09:50,680 --> 01:09:53,760
Speaker 3: I've never seen any mutated blood as mutated as this,

1335
01:09:55,760 --> 01:10:07,559
Speaker 3: So some weird doings are afoot. So next seeing things

1336
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:10,920
Speaker 3: on board start getting more violent between the people on

1337
01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:14,000
Speaker 3: the ship. So there's a scene where wall Street Walter

1338
01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:17,960
Speaker 3: is creeping on Bobby while she's doing aerobics, and then

1339
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:20,479
Speaker 3: he gets creepier and creepier until it seems that he

1340
01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:23,680
Speaker 3: is about to rape her. But then Lance shows up

1341
01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:27,479
Speaker 3: and beats him up, but unfortunately, then Mike shows up

1342
01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:31,240
Speaker 3: and shoots Lance in the arm. So now things have

1343
01:10:31,479 --> 01:10:34,439
Speaker 3: sort of openly turned hostile between the corporate creeps and

1344
01:10:34,479 --> 01:10:38,080
Speaker 3: the spring Breakers, and Mike has all the spring Breakers

1345
01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:40,960
Speaker 3: at gunpoint, but there is a cat attack while he's

1346
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:43,320
Speaker 3: like standing there with the gun pointed at them. The

1347
01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:47,080
Speaker 3: cat bites Mike on the leg. This is George Kennedy

1348
01:10:47,280 --> 01:10:50,280
Speaker 3: bites him on the bites Dragline on the leg in

1349
01:10:50,320 --> 01:10:52,720
Speaker 3: a way that it looks like it nearly bites his

1350
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:55,439
Speaker 3: leg off. At first, Yeah, not quite, but it's like

1351
01:10:55,560 --> 01:10:57,880
Speaker 3: digging in there, and they're later talking about it like, wow,

1352
01:10:57,920 --> 01:11:00,760
Speaker 3: it bit right through his shoe.

1353
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:02,880
Speaker 2: So set, Yes, sever's right through the achilles tendon. There's

1354
01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:07,800
Speaker 2: a lot of screaming. Yeah, he's hitting the floor. And now,

1355
01:11:07,880 --> 01:11:10,240
Speaker 2: at first, what I was watching this, I couldn't tell

1356
01:11:10,360 --> 01:11:12,880
Speaker 2: if the other characters were supposed to see that cat

1357
01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:14,559
Speaker 2: thing did it because cat thing kind of comes out

1358
01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:18,439
Speaker 2: underneath the furniture and attacks. Which I have to say

1359
01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:21,120
Speaker 2: is this is a very unbrand.

1360
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:23,200
Speaker 3: For a household, reaching out from under furniture.

1361
01:11:23,240 --> 01:11:25,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, reaching out from underneath something and attacking the feet.

1362
01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:29,679
Speaker 2: My feet are attacked on a near daily basis by

1363
01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:33,759
Speaker 2: my own cat, but never gets me quite this hard.

1364
01:11:34,280 --> 01:11:37,799
Speaker 2: There's never splurting blood and screaming. And of course my cat,

1365
01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:42,080
Speaker 2: not being a mutant, also doesn't have venom that makes

1366
01:11:42,120 --> 01:11:43,200
Speaker 2: my veins explode.

1367
01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:45,920
Speaker 3: That's right. So what happens here is the bite seems

1368
01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:48,000
Speaker 3: a lot worse than a cat bite could normally be

1369
01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:50,840
Speaker 3: for some reason. They're I mean, I guess it's just

1370
01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:54,400
Speaker 3: duty to treat whoever. But they're trying to help out

1371
01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:57,240
Speaker 3: Mike after he was just pointing a gun at them,

1372
01:11:57,439 --> 01:12:01,200
Speaker 3: and they're like, what's going on, Mike, And he's like, well,

1373
01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:04,920
Speaker 3: you know, I've been bitten by a mutated cat. So

1374
01:12:05,080 --> 01:12:07,880
Speaker 3: all this venom is coursing through his veins and his

1375
01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:11,360
Speaker 3: veins are sort of popping up under the scan and exploding,

1376
01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:15,919
Speaker 3: and Martin is explaining, like, wow, the blood was mutating

1377
01:12:15,920 --> 01:12:18,920
Speaker 3: like nothing I've ever seen before, and it makes Mike's

1378
01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:21,960
Speaker 3: arteries explode and he dies. For a minute, it looks

1379
01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:24,360
Speaker 3: like he's gonna go full cane and alien. I think

1380
01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:27,439
Speaker 3: like something pops up out of his gut like a head,

1381
01:12:27,560 --> 01:12:29,799
Speaker 3: but then it doesn't. Nothing emerges.

1382
01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:32,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought again, this is gonna be another cat

1383
01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:35,080
Speaker 2: thing bursting out of George Kennedy's chest.

1384
01:12:35,200 --> 01:12:37,799
Speaker 3: But it doesn't happen. I think that was just another

1385
01:12:37,880 --> 01:12:41,040
Speaker 3: vein exploding. Maybe that was his heart exploding or something,

1386
01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:45,280
Speaker 3: I guess. So at this point, Rachel and Suzanne try

1387
01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:48,360
Speaker 3: to go radio for help, but wall Street Walter pulls

1388
01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:51,599
Speaker 3: a quint in Jaws. Here he shoots the communications equipment

1389
01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:53,960
Speaker 3: and he's like, you won't be getting in touch with anybody.

1390
01:12:54,360 --> 01:12:57,360
Speaker 3: But fortunately Rachel and Suzanne get the upper hand. They

1391
01:12:57,400 --> 01:13:00,320
Speaker 3: like blast him with a fire extinguisher and they get

1392
01:13:00,320 --> 01:13:03,800
Speaker 3: control of the gun and subdue Walter. So after this,

1393
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:06,479
Speaker 3: the spring Breakers take charge. Now they are in control

1394
01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:07,120
Speaker 3: of the vessel.

1395
01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:10,519
Speaker 2: That's right, Walter is captive and they've just got to

1396
01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:12,559
Speaker 2: steer this ship to safety and justice.

1397
01:13:12,800 --> 01:13:15,719
Speaker 3: Now what other scenes should be mentioned? As things things

1398
01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:18,719
Speaker 3: go on, the cat will continue to attack various members

1399
01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:21,559
Speaker 3: of the I was gonna say the crew people on

1400
01:13:21,600 --> 01:13:25,599
Speaker 3: board the ship here, there's one weird subplot where the

1401
01:13:25,640 --> 01:13:30,240
Speaker 3: cat infects all of the food on the yacht with

1402
01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:34,640
Speaker 3: cat with like vein explosion venom. Yeah, and this kind

1403
01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:37,240
Speaker 3: of reminded me of the like the scenes in the

1404
01:13:37,280 --> 01:13:40,160
Speaker 3: Thing or like the Thing is getting to the blood

1405
01:13:40,240 --> 01:13:42,640
Speaker 3: to taint all the blood so they can't test for it.

1406
01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:44,679
Speaker 3: Mm yeah. Yeah.

1407
01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:47,000
Speaker 2: And I think there was a scene in Alien where

1408
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:49,160
Speaker 2: the Xenomorph gets into their food. Maybe it was a

1409
01:13:49,240 --> 01:13:53,320
Speaker 2: deleted scene, but it's one that I've seen mentioned time

1410
01:13:53,360 --> 01:13:57,599
Speaker 2: and time again when when fans are debating how quickly

1411
01:13:57,640 --> 01:13:59,720
Speaker 2: as Xenomorph grows and what it may or may not

1412
01:13:59,720 --> 01:14:01,200
Speaker 2: have to eat to get to that point.

1413
01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:05,000
Speaker 3: There's one scene eventually that was an amazing, like laugh

1414
01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:08,640
Speaker 3: out loud moment, and it's the it's the Lance makeout

1415
01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:10,040
Speaker 3: arm scare scene.

1416
01:14:10,400 --> 01:14:12,880
Speaker 2: Yes, oh god, this is so good. This is a

1417
01:14:12,920 --> 01:14:15,920
Speaker 2: scene that, as we describe it here, it may sound

1418
01:14:16,040 --> 01:14:20,160
Speaker 2: grotesque and and uh and I would say in bad

1419
01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:22,479
Speaker 2: taste maybe with a with a with a touch of

1420
01:14:22,520 --> 01:14:26,600
Speaker 2: cruelty to it, but the way, but that's just not

1421
01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:28,800
Speaker 2: the nature of this film. Like it ends up just

1422
01:14:28,840 --> 01:14:31,240
Speaker 2: being laugh out loud, funny and just so over the

1423
01:14:31,240 --> 01:14:32,120
Speaker 2: top ridiculous.

1424
01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:35,920
Speaker 3: So what happened, Like Lance and Bobby are making.

1425
01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:38,799
Speaker 2: Lance was the one who was shot by Mike, so he's,

1426
01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:42,679
Speaker 2: you know, he's still recovering. He's he's maybe recovering from

1427
01:14:42,720 --> 01:14:45,559
Speaker 2: that that gunshot wound. He's in bad he's in bad place.

1428
01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:48,160
Speaker 3: They're kissing and he's like, I can't feel anything in

1429
01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:48,519
Speaker 3: my arm.

1430
01:14:48,840 --> 01:14:51,320
Speaker 2: Yes, like my arm's really numb, and so she moves

1431
01:14:51,360 --> 01:14:54,479
Speaker 2: a towel off of the hand of that arm, and

1432
01:14:54,520 --> 01:14:56,960
Speaker 2: then we see that cat Thing is just munching on

1433
01:14:57,040 --> 01:15:00,040
Speaker 2: his fingers. It's like munched all his fingers off, and

1434
01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:03,960
Speaker 2: there's just blood everywhere, and of course Lance screams and

1435
01:15:04,960 --> 01:15:07,400
Speaker 2: from there, I mean again, this is a very fast

1436
01:15:07,439 --> 01:15:12,160
Speaker 2: acting mutant cat Thing venom. Lance very quickly like loses

1437
01:15:12,200 --> 01:15:14,880
Speaker 2: his mind and is convinced that his only hope is

1438
01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:16,800
Speaker 2: to jump off the ship to his death.

1439
01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:18,559
Speaker 3: And I think Bobby goes with him.

1440
01:15:18,600 --> 01:15:20,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, Bobby's like no, and then goes with him, and

1441
01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:21,720
Speaker 2: then she's dead too.

1442
01:15:21,920 --> 01:15:24,320
Speaker 3: So that's the end of them there.

1443
01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:26,479
Speaker 2: We should note that, you know, the girls were nice

1444
01:15:26,520 --> 01:15:29,840
Speaker 2: to cat Thing, and so far cat Thing has not

1445
01:15:30,080 --> 01:15:32,759
Speaker 2: directly attacked either of the girls.

1446
01:15:32,840 --> 01:15:35,280
Speaker 3: That's right. It has only bitten the boys. Yeah, the

1447
01:15:35,320 --> 01:15:37,960
Speaker 3: corporate creeps and the boys. Yeah. Though I will say

1448
01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:41,120
Speaker 3: to comment on whether the cat punishes immorality or not,

1449
01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:44,080
Speaker 3: Lance has been a little bit mean to the cat.

1450
01:15:44,120 --> 01:15:46,760
Speaker 3: But Lance actually hasn't been that bad in terms of

1451
01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:51,200
Speaker 3: human behavior. You can imagine a jock in the spring

1452
01:15:51,240 --> 01:15:54,280
Speaker 3: Break movie being a much more terrible and obnoxious character.

1453
01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:56,839
Speaker 3: He's just a little bit annoying to the other humans.

1454
01:15:56,880 --> 01:15:59,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point. That's a good point. Now,

1455
01:15:59,120 --> 01:16:00,640
Speaker 2: in the in the midst of all of this, what

1456
01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:04,720
Speaker 2: we also have Corey, the preppy character he like is

1457
01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:07,120
Speaker 2: he's running a side deal with Walter. There's like a

1458
01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:11,040
Speaker 2: scene where Walter the prisoner now kind of seduces Corey

1459
01:16:11,080 --> 01:16:13,439
Speaker 2: back over to his side let me show you something

1460
01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:15,880
Speaker 2: like that, but I don't remember the details of their deal.

1461
01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:19,200
Speaker 3: He invites Corey into Corey's in there like, wow, you know,

1462
01:16:19,320 --> 01:16:21,920
Speaker 3: I thought you were great Wall Street Walter, but it

1463
01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:25,320
Speaker 3: turns out you're You're a real joke that like you

1464
01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:27,920
Speaker 3: at all. And while Street Walter is like, let me

1465
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:30,280
Speaker 3: change your mind. Come look at my wall safe. I've

1466
01:16:30,280 --> 01:16:34,840
Speaker 3: got money and Corey's like, oh, money, but I don't

1467
01:16:34,880 --> 01:16:38,240
Speaker 3: I don't think now I've forgotten this detail. Is Corey

1468
01:16:38,320 --> 01:16:40,120
Speaker 3: gonna go for the deal? I don't think so.

1469
01:16:41,080 --> 01:16:43,320
Speaker 2: But doesn't Corey then agree to a plan where they're

1470
01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:45,240
Speaker 2: going to put out poison for the cat.

1471
01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:47,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're going to try to kill the cat. Yeah,

1472
01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:50,840
Speaker 3: but that's in his interest too, that's in everybody's interest

1473
01:16:50,920 --> 01:16:53,320
Speaker 3: on the boat. I mean, so he's going to put

1474
01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:57,080
Speaker 3: out poisoned food around the boat so that the cat

1475
01:16:57,120 --> 01:17:00,800
Speaker 3: will eat it and die. That's his plan, though he

1476
01:17:01,400 --> 01:17:04,280
Speaker 3: actually Lance is not killed by the cat. Lance is

1477
01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:08,760
Speaker 3: killed by his own clumsiness because he's like carrying a

1478
01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:11,120
Speaker 3: gun around and he's in the engine room and he

1479
01:17:11,160 --> 01:17:13,559
Speaker 3: shoots something that blasts a bunch of steam on it.

1480
01:17:13,640 --> 01:17:16,719
Speaker 2: He's trying to shoot the cat, hits a steam pipe

1481
01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:19,960
Speaker 2: and the steam just blasts them. By the way, from

1482
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:22,200
Speaker 2: the effects, it's clear that this is like like fire

1483
01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:25,240
Speaker 2: extinguisher or something and not steam. But then but then

1484
01:17:25,240 --> 01:17:30,200
Speaker 2: we cut to this like horrific makeup effect on Corey

1485
01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:32,920
Speaker 2: where he's just been completely scalded to death, and it's

1486
01:17:32,920 --> 01:17:36,559
Speaker 2: pretty horrific. After seeing all these all these shots of

1487
01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:39,200
Speaker 2: the cat thing puppet emerging from the fake cat head.

1488
01:17:39,760 --> 01:17:41,519
Speaker 2: This one was kind of it was a little alarming

1489
01:17:41,560 --> 01:17:43,839
Speaker 2: to see, you know, some I don't know how believable

1490
01:17:43,880 --> 01:17:47,120
Speaker 2: they are from a you know, an anatomical level, but

1491
01:17:47,439 --> 01:17:49,479
Speaker 2: the horror movie wise, it was very effective.

1492
01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:52,519
Speaker 3: So eventually the only passengers left alive on the yacht

1493
01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:57,040
Speaker 3: are Rachel the captain, Martin the biologist, and wall Street Walter.

1494
01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:00,920
Speaker 2: Oh, we forgot about Suzanne. Susan and still on board,

1495
01:18:02,240 --> 01:18:05,840
Speaker 2: eats poisoned cat food, yes, and then her veins explode.

1496
01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:10,400
Speaker 3: She thinks that the cat food is not poisoned. She

1497
01:18:10,600 --> 01:18:12,840
Speaker 3: like breaks into the pantry and eats a piece of

1498
01:18:12,840 --> 01:18:15,559
Speaker 3: bread and she's like, they were lying to me, it's

1499
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:19,040
Speaker 3: not poisoned. It's fine. But then Hugh and yeah, her

1500
01:18:19,360 --> 01:18:20,760
Speaker 3: veins explode.

1501
01:18:20,360 --> 01:18:22,479
Speaker 2: But again not directly killed by the cat.

1502
01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:25,559
Speaker 3: The cat is watching her when it happens. They do

1503
01:18:25,680 --> 01:18:30,200
Speaker 3: like to watch. Yeah, so there is then there's a storm.

1504
01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:32,519
Speaker 3: There's a storm, and the boat basically starts sinking. There

1505
01:18:32,560 --> 01:18:36,200
Speaker 3: was another part where it's hard to explain why this

1506
01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:39,519
Speaker 3: was so funny, but Rachel is like, there, you know,

1507
01:18:39,560 --> 01:18:42,040
Speaker 3: the hull is damaged. We're taking on water and then

1508
01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:45,200
Speaker 3: it just cuts to a wall with like a clean,

1509
01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:49,200
Speaker 3: sort of softball sized round hole in the wood, and

1510
01:18:49,240 --> 01:18:51,640
Speaker 3: there's like clearly a hose on the other side of it,

1511
01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:52,639
Speaker 3: just gushing through.

1512
01:18:53,400 --> 01:18:55,439
Speaker 2: Like, how did did the cat do this? How did

1513
01:18:55,439 --> 01:18:55,880
Speaker 2: this happen?

1514
01:18:56,000 --> 01:18:59,400
Speaker 3: I don't know, but it's really funny. And so the

1515
01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:03,200
Speaker 3: boats sink and Rachel and Martin they get away to

1516
01:19:03,280 --> 01:19:05,840
Speaker 3: a lifeboat. I guess they're trying. Walter is going to

1517
01:19:05,880 --> 01:19:08,639
Speaker 3: come with them, but he tries to save his money.

1518
01:19:08,720 --> 01:19:10,640
Speaker 3: He's like, no, I got to get all my briefcases

1519
01:19:10,640 --> 01:19:14,360
Speaker 3: of cash, the silver briefcases. Yeah, loading up these silver

1520
01:19:14,400 --> 01:19:17,840
Speaker 3: briefcases full of wads of cash, and he's like, gotta

1521
01:19:17,880 --> 01:19:20,559
Speaker 3: go back for another briefcase of cash, and you know what,

1522
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:23,000
Speaker 3: He's going to be killed by greed. It's like it's

1523
01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:25,320
Speaker 3: like Ilsa at the end of the Last Crusade. You know,

1524
01:19:25,439 --> 01:19:27,320
Speaker 3: you let it go, but he can't let it go.

1525
01:19:28,040 --> 01:19:30,880
Speaker 3: The cat gets him. And then Rachel and Martin are

1526
01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:33,840
Speaker 3: in the lifeboat, and since they're now drifting away from

1527
01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:36,640
Speaker 3: the sinking yacht, you'd think they'd be okay, but no,

1528
01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:40,599
Speaker 3: there is a coda. There is one last conflict, and

1529
01:19:40,800 --> 01:19:43,000
Speaker 3: it is magnifico.

1530
01:19:43,400 --> 01:19:47,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, It is amazing. If you decide to watch Uninvited

1531
01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:50,439
Speaker 2: and you find yourself becoming a little bored and you're

1532
01:19:50,520 --> 01:19:54,240
Speaker 2: tempted to turn it off, don't turn it off. I

1533
01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:57,240
Speaker 2: would recommend just watching it, but if you must, at

1534
01:19:57,320 --> 01:19:59,960
Speaker 2: least fast forward to the end and watch this final

1535
01:20:00,120 --> 01:20:03,200
Speaker 2: sequence in the lifeboat, because it is it is just

1536
01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:05,480
Speaker 2: absolutely inspired B cinema.

1537
01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:09,320
Speaker 3: So they're in the lifeboat and then the the killer

1538
01:20:09,400 --> 01:20:12,280
Speaker 3: cat thing puppet starts popping up out of the water

1539
01:20:12,360 --> 01:20:15,439
Speaker 3: and attacking them on the boat. So like grabs Martin

1540
01:20:15,840 --> 01:20:18,000
Speaker 3: and he's like ah ah and wrestling it away, and

1541
01:20:18,040 --> 01:20:20,400
Speaker 3: then Rachel's like, oh no, did it bite you? No,

1542
01:20:20,479 --> 01:20:20,920
Speaker 3: I'm okay.

1543
01:20:21,360 --> 01:20:24,120
Speaker 2: Oh there it is again and is back in the

1544
01:20:24,160 --> 01:20:26,840
Speaker 2: boat coming at them. It's like, oh, I mean, it's

1545
01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:30,360
Speaker 2: just troll. Two levels of awesteness. And it reminds Actually,

1546
01:20:30,400 --> 01:20:32,640
Speaker 2: my wife made this connection first because I had to

1547
01:20:32,640 --> 01:20:33,360
Speaker 2: show where this ending.

1548
01:20:33,400 --> 01:20:34,640
Speaker 3: She didn't watch the whole film, but I'm like, you

1549
01:20:34,640 --> 01:20:35,639
Speaker 3: gotta watch the ending.

1550
01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:38,479
Speaker 2: And she said, it's just like the moment in the

1551
01:20:38,520 --> 01:20:41,280
Speaker 2: Simpsons Treehouse of Horror where Homer gets his hands stuck

1552
01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:41,840
Speaker 2: in the toaster.

1553
01:20:41,960 --> 01:20:44,639
Speaker 3: Again. Yes, like Dad, it's stuck in there again. Oh,

1554
01:20:44,640 --> 01:20:47,479
Speaker 3: it's one of my favorites. It is. It's exactly that energy.

1555
01:20:48,200 --> 01:20:51,400
Speaker 3: And then the way that they defeat the cat is

1556
01:20:51,479 --> 01:20:52,120
Speaker 3: so good.

1557
01:20:52,280 --> 01:20:54,360
Speaker 2: Well, the whole logic ground. So they're like, the cat

1558
01:20:54,439 --> 01:20:57,000
Speaker 2: is only jumping in here after us, because this is

1559
01:20:57,040 --> 01:20:59,960
Speaker 2: the only thing floating in the area. We should throw

1560
01:21:00,439 --> 01:21:03,120
Speaker 2: the suitcase full of millions of dollars out into the

1561
01:21:03,160 --> 01:21:05,960
Speaker 2: water and then the cat will be forced to float

1562
01:21:05,960 --> 01:21:06,280
Speaker 2: on that.

1563
01:21:07,479 --> 01:21:09,400
Speaker 3: But first they dump out the millions of dollars.

1564
01:21:09,400 --> 01:21:11,439
Speaker 2: They well, let's get the money, let's get the money

1565
01:21:11,439 --> 01:21:15,920
Speaker 2: out first. They did have that moment of clarity, I guess.

1566
01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:18,640
Speaker 2: But then yeah, they throw the briefcase out and the

1567
01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:22,480
Speaker 2: cat puppet cat thing is just setting on the floating briefcase.

1568
01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:24,960
Speaker 2: I don't know why he couldn't jump into the boat

1569
01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:27,519
Speaker 2: and attack them a third time and a fourth time.

1570
01:21:27,880 --> 01:21:30,880
Speaker 2: At this point they're able to leave it behind again

1571
01:21:30,920 --> 01:21:33,800
Speaker 2: in a lifeboat that is not propelled by anything except

1572
01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:37,400
Speaker 2: for the storm all around them. So we get this

1573
01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:39,920
Speaker 2: shot of there they're going to safety, and there their

1574
01:21:39,960 --> 01:21:42,759
Speaker 2: lifeboat and there is cat thing floating on the silver

1575
01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:43,960
Speaker 2: briefcase in the ocean.

1576
01:21:44,560 --> 01:21:47,519
Speaker 3: So evil wall Street Walter got his Comeuppins and his

1577
01:21:47,600 --> 01:21:51,599
Speaker 3: co conspirators. Unfortunately, many innocent people perished along the way

1578
01:21:51,600 --> 01:21:54,000
Speaker 3: as well. But our two heroes in the end, they

1579
01:21:54,120 --> 01:21:56,760
Speaker 3: drift to the Cayman Islands, I guess, and they get

1580
01:21:56,800 --> 01:21:58,800
Speaker 3: to walk away with a Duffel bag full of money,

1581
01:21:58,800 --> 01:22:00,360
Speaker 3: and there's like a scene of them to talking to

1582
01:22:00,400 --> 01:22:05,040
Speaker 3: the authorities, like explaining what happened, and the authorities are like,

1583
01:22:05,400 --> 01:22:07,720
Speaker 3: I don't know about this cat monster story, but they're

1584
01:22:07,720 --> 01:22:09,840
Speaker 3: both just like looking at the Duffel bag, like can

1585
01:22:09,880 --> 01:22:10,680
Speaker 3: we take this?

1586
01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:13,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're like, yeah, sure, go for it. You

1587
01:22:14,040 --> 01:22:18,200
Speaker 2: two need a vacation after all that. So it seems

1588
01:22:18,280 --> 01:22:22,200
Speaker 2: like our heroes, our survivors, are are on track for

1589
01:22:22,240 --> 01:22:23,120
Speaker 2: a happy ending here.

1590
01:22:23,479 --> 01:22:26,080
Speaker 3: Yeah. Though I guess Captain Rachel is not going to

1591
01:22:26,120 --> 01:22:28,400
Speaker 3: get the boat she wanted. Maybe she's going to get

1592
01:22:28,439 --> 01:22:29,040
Speaker 3: a different boat.

1593
01:22:29,360 --> 01:22:31,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think she'd want a different boat after all this,

1594
01:22:31,920 --> 01:22:35,559
Speaker 2: you know what a blood bath boat that's I'm probably

1595
01:22:35,560 --> 01:22:38,600
Speaker 2: still poisoned by the cat, the mutant cat that was

1596
01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:39,599
Speaker 2: running them up and boarded.

1597
01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:43,080
Speaker 3: I guess they're competing interests there, Like it has sentimental

1598
01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:46,080
Speaker 3: family values kind of a legacy yacht, but also it

1599
01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:48,320
Speaker 3: was where the cat Thing killed all those people.

1600
01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:51,960
Speaker 2: I don't know, but you, even though we have a

1601
01:22:52,080 --> 01:22:54,800
Speaker 2: essentially a happy ending here, you need something a little

1602
01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:57,400
Speaker 2: more on a sci fi horror movie like this, you

1603
01:22:57,439 --> 01:23:00,880
Speaker 2: need a little like bump bump bump action. You maybe

1604
01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:03,280
Speaker 2: setting up for a sequel, but at least leaving you

1605
01:23:03,320 --> 01:23:06,240
Speaker 2: with an uneasy feeling that things are not going to

1606
01:23:06,240 --> 01:23:06,719
Speaker 2: be okay.

1607
01:23:07,120 --> 01:23:10,600
Speaker 3: Two twist ending. Now there's the theatrical twist ending. The

1608
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:14,120
Speaker 3: one I know is the one on the beach. Is

1609
01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:16,320
Speaker 3: that the same one that was in your version in

1610
01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:20,120
Speaker 3: the theatrical yet? Okay? Yeah, so wait, well why don't

1611
01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:21,120
Speaker 3: you narry what happens here?

1612
01:23:21,200 --> 01:23:23,960
Speaker 2: Okay, so we get a nice beach scene. I believe

1613
01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:26,000
Speaker 2: what is the name of this beach? This is actually

1614
01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:28,519
Speaker 2: a California beach that a lot of stuff has been

1615
01:23:28,560 --> 01:23:31,719
Speaker 2: shot on. This is not Florida, but on this beach

1616
01:23:31,800 --> 01:23:35,200
Speaker 2: we see, oh here washed up is the silver briefcase

1617
01:23:35,880 --> 01:23:37,640
Speaker 2: again that used to have cash in it, that was

1618
01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:40,400
Speaker 2: emptied and it was the last place that we saw

1619
01:23:40,560 --> 01:23:44,040
Speaker 2: cat Thing. And then here is a little boy walking

1620
01:23:44,080 --> 01:23:47,040
Speaker 2: along on the beach. This is actually Graydon Clark's son,

1621
01:23:47,120 --> 01:23:50,960
Speaker 2: by the way, and he finds a cat now. Of note,

1622
01:23:51,040 --> 01:23:52,960
Speaker 2: this is not the same cat we've been seeing the

1623
01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:54,479
Speaker 2: whole time. This is like a dark cat, This is

1624
01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:57,720
Speaker 2: not an orange tabby. But we are to assume, I

1625
01:23:57,720 --> 01:24:00,599
Speaker 2: guess that this cat is cat thing or has cat

1626
01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:03,519
Speaker 2: thing inside it, because the child picks up cat thing

1627
01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:07,160
Speaker 2: is holding him, and then we get an ominous freeze

1628
01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:08,680
Speaker 2: frame and then a zoom in on.

1629
01:24:08,720 --> 01:24:11,280
Speaker 3: The child holding the cat. Well, the cat was more

1630
01:24:11,360 --> 01:24:14,080
Speaker 3: mutated than anything Martin the biologist had ever seen, so

1631
01:24:14,120 --> 01:24:16,840
Speaker 3: clearly he could mutate its coat too. So yeah, that's

1632
01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:18,000
Speaker 3: why it looks different now.

1633
01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:20,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, or it is a parasite that found a new

1634
01:24:20,479 --> 01:24:21,519
Speaker 2: cat to occupy it.

1635
01:24:21,560 --> 01:24:21,960
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1636
01:24:22,040 --> 01:24:24,040
Speaker 2: Either interpretation I guess is valid.

1637
01:24:24,400 --> 01:24:26,400
Speaker 3: But what was the deal with the alternate ending? Was

1638
01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:27,719
Speaker 3: there like a European cut?

1639
01:24:28,120 --> 01:24:31,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's a different twist ending. And remember in

1640
01:24:31,600 --> 01:24:34,880
Speaker 2: this version, we don't see Gray and Clark at the

1641
01:24:34,880 --> 01:24:37,519
Speaker 2: beginning of the film as a doctor. Instead we see

1642
01:24:37,560 --> 01:24:40,920
Speaker 2: him here at the end. We're at the marina there

1643
01:24:40,920 --> 01:24:44,280
Speaker 2: on the dock, and the child brings this suitcase to

1644
01:24:44,800 --> 01:24:47,679
Speaker 2: the father or assuming it's the father played by Graydon Clark,

1645
01:24:47,960 --> 01:24:50,640
Speaker 2: and he's like, oh, what's his suitcase? Let's open it up.

1646
01:24:50,720 --> 01:24:51,160
Speaker 3: Put it up.

1647
01:24:51,200 --> 01:24:54,360
Speaker 2: They put it up there on a table. Open it up,

1648
01:24:54,439 --> 01:24:56,760
Speaker 2: and then we get a jump scare of cat thing,

1649
01:24:57,160 --> 01:25:01,840
Speaker 2: the puppet version, jumping out of the briefcase at us

1650
01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:04,439
Speaker 2: the audience, and we get this you know, awesome like

1651
01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:07,920
Speaker 2: snarl growl sound that it makes throughout the picture, and

1652
01:25:07,960 --> 01:25:10,160
Speaker 2: then freeze frame and then we cut to the credits

1653
01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:13,720
Speaker 2: with that horrible theme song playing over it. The theatrical

1654
01:25:13,800 --> 01:25:18,240
Speaker 2: version has just you know, the scary score from the picture.

1655
01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:22,280
Speaker 2: International version gets that horrible uninvited theme music.

1656
01:25:24,840 --> 01:25:28,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's uninvited. That is.

1657
01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:31,599
Speaker 2: Yes, it gives us a lot to think about about

1658
01:25:32,320 --> 01:25:36,680
Speaker 2: about humanity's relationship with cats. No, it doesn't really give

1659
01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:38,479
Speaker 2: anything to think about it. It is a but it

1660
01:25:38,560 --> 01:25:42,840
Speaker 2: is an alarmingly good B movie, this one. This one

1661
01:25:42,960 --> 01:25:46,920
Speaker 2: has a well deserved following among B movie and Schlot fans.

1662
01:25:46,960 --> 01:25:50,080
Speaker 2: So if you like quote unquote bad movies, if you

1663
01:25:50,160 --> 01:25:53,360
Speaker 2: like cheesy movies, this one's worth picking up. It's I mean,

1664
01:25:53,360 --> 01:25:55,800
Speaker 2: it's again, it's got some fun performances in it, it's

1665
01:25:55,840 --> 01:25:59,360
Speaker 2: competently made. On the whole, It's very watchable. I don't

1666
01:25:59,360 --> 01:26:01,800
Speaker 2: think it ever has a dull moment. It's just a

1667
01:26:01,800 --> 01:26:02,360
Speaker 2: lot of fun.

1668
01:26:02,640 --> 01:26:05,880
Speaker 3: I just remembered I think I rented this in the

1669
01:26:05,920 --> 01:26:10,519
Speaker 3: same batch where I rented Night Beast. Oh, that all

1670
01:26:10,560 --> 01:26:14,040
Speaker 3: comes together as like a really good, really really good

1671
01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:15,280
Speaker 3: video drome hole for me.

1672
01:26:15,720 --> 01:26:19,439
Speaker 2: Yes, Night Beast is incredible. And by the way, if

1673
01:26:19,479 --> 01:26:21,120
Speaker 2: anyone out there, if you happen to be in the

1674
01:26:21,160 --> 01:26:23,879
Speaker 2: Atlanta area and you're going to Monster Rama this weekend,

1675
01:26:24,520 --> 01:26:26,599
Speaker 2: there's going to be a showing of Night Beast as

1676
01:26:26,640 --> 01:26:29,800
Speaker 2: part of the track there. Yeah, they're also gonna there

1677
01:26:29,800 --> 01:26:32,559

1678
01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:35,800
Speaker 2: about on the show. Here, Queen of Blood is gonna

1679
01:26:35,800 --> 01:26:39,360
Speaker 2: be be presented. So hey, yeah, if you like monster movies,

1680
01:26:39,360 --> 01:26:40,800
Speaker 2: I feel like some of the weird house movies we've

1681
01:26:40,800 --> 01:26:42,600
Speaker 2: talked about that that's worth checking out if you're in

1682
01:26:42,640 --> 01:26:43,040
Speaker 2: the area.

1683
01:26:43,360 --> 01:26:44,680
Speaker 3: All right, I guess we got to wrap it up

1684
01:26:44,680 --> 01:26:45,120
Speaker 3: for today.

1685
01:26:45,360 --> 01:26:47,479
Speaker 2: That's right, we're wrapping it up. This is the end
