1
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Hey, you welcome to Weird House Cinema. Rewind, it is

2
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: time to get on the boat, y'all. This is Rob Lamb.

3
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:12,800
Speaker 1: This is going to be an episode that originally published

4
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:16,119
Speaker 1: eight eight, twenty twenty five. It is the Uninvited or

5
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: I'm sorry it's Uninvited, No. The from nineteen eighty eight.

6
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: This is another Beast Cinema installment from Graydon Clark. It

7
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 1: has George Kennedy in it. It has a mutated cat,

8
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: a killer mutated cat in it. What more do you

9
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: need to know? You don't need to know anything else.

10
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: You just need to jump into this episode and maybe

11
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,959
Speaker 1: jump out and watch this movie as well. Let's have it.

12
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 2: Welcome to Stuff to Blow Your Mind, a production of iHeartRadio.

13
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 1: Hey you welcome to Weird House Cinema. This is Rob Lamb.

14
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 3: And this is Joe McCormick.

15
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: And in this episode our cat. We festivities conclude. We're

16
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 1: following up core episodes of Stuff to Blow Your Mind

17
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: as well as a midweek Monster Fact that all revolved

18
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 1: around cats, and so we of course had to choose

19
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: a cat film for Weird House Cinema this week. We

20
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: ultimately had had quite a few to consider, like are

21
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:24,199
Speaker 1: we going to go with cat as ally, cat as enemy?

22
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,039
Speaker 1: But we ultimately went with a B cinema favorite and

23
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,759
Speaker 1: one that multiple listeners have recommended to us over the years,

24
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: the direct to video nineteen eighty eight or eighty seven

25
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: mutant cat sci fi thriller Uninvited. Not to be confused

26
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 1: with the many other films that are titled the Uninvited.

27
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 1: This is just uninvited.

28
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 3: What is it that's uninvited? There are many things uninvited

29
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 3: in this film. I guess there's a cat that was

30
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 3: not invited. There are also lots of people who were

31
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 3: not invited.

32
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and one of the boyfriends were invited.

33
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, and there is there's an extra thing inside the

34
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 3: cat that maybe you could interpret us thing that's uninvited,

35
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 3: Like one of the people at least wanted to invite

36
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 3: the cat but didn't realize it had a mutant thing

37
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:08,959
Speaker 3: inside of it.

38
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, but then again, all cats are uninvited. They invite themselves.

39
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: They are calling the shots here.

40
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 3: Cats are not like vampires. They will not catch fire

41
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:18,799
Speaker 3: coming into a house uninvited.

42
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 1: You may invite them, but they may not accept it.

43
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: It's all up to them. So we selected this film

44
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: before We recorded our core stuff to Blow your Mind

45
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 1: episodes this week on the folklore Cats of the British

46
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: Isles and the Cats of Cypress, and I have to

47
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: say that I'm pleasantly surprised that this film managed to

48
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: line up at all with anything we talked about in

49
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 1: our core episodes. But you know, we have the idea

50
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: here of a cat as a kind of vengeful demon,

51
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 1: and we have cats on a boat. We spent the

52
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: Cypress episode talking a good bit about cats on boats.

53
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 3: That's right, trying to imagine stone age farmers getting all

54
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 3: different kinds of animals on boats to take them across

55
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 3: the sea to Cypress, and one of those animals would

56
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 3: have been the cat. I guess maybe you know, despite

57
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 3: how difficult it is known to be to herd cats,

58
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 3: i'd imagine it's easier to herd cats than to herd foxes.

59
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: Now, now, don't be confused, though this is not a

60
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: movie you're going to learn a lot from. Uninvited is

61
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: not a movie with lofty, dramatic or thematic ambitions. It

62
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: is a creature feature, first and foremost, and one that

63
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: subjectively misses the mark in several ways while also succeeding

64
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: in being just an amazingly fun and weird ninety one

65
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: minutes of cinema.

66
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 3: I don't know who would say this thing misses the mark.

67
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 3: I think this is this is like what creature features

68
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 3: were invented for was to become this.

69
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: Well, when I say missed the mark, imagine that there's

70
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: there's like an archery target setup. Okay, the arrow is

71
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: is fired, and perhaps this arrow we can call this

72
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: arrow effective and horrifying creature design. Oh okay, it misses

73
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: the entire target, but then it's a bull on an

74
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,839
Speaker 1: adjacent target. Okay, okay, and that's where we are, like, Yeah,

75
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 1: the creature in this film is not the xenomorph from

76
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: Ridley Scott's Alien, I understand, but it is amazing in

77
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: its own right. I wouldn't change a thing about it.

78
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 1: It's a total gromblin picture. Like, this creature is on

79
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: the same level as some of the creatures from I

80
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: don't know, Goolies and so forth. It has a triumph

81
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 1: the insult, comic dog energy to it. So every time

82
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: it's on screen, you're going to giggle, You're going to laugh.

83
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: And is that what the filmmakers intended? Maybe not, but

84
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,119
Speaker 1: that is why people love One of the reasons people

85
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: love this film.

86
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 3: I think I am starting to get a feeling of

87
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 3: Graydon Clark's sensibilities, and I think this was maybe supposed

88
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 3: to be funny in the ways that it is. I

89
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 3: think the moist puppet that appears repeatedly is It just

90
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 3: seems impossible to me that Clark did not recognize that

91
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 3: he had struck gold here with the potential comedic value.

92
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 3: But that does bring up something I wanted to get

93
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 3: into at the beginning. Uninvited is often described as a

94
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 3: killer cat movie, but I have to flag that the

95
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 3: actual creature that kills people is not the fluffy, cute

96
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 3: kitty cat that we see in most shots. You know,

97
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 3: so there is a cute kitty cat in the movie,

98
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 3: you know that people pet and hold and it runs

99
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 3: around and stuff.

100
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 1: Beautiful tabby cat.

101
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 3: Yes, whenever it is time for the beast to vomit

102
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 3: death upon humankind, what happens is that this cute kitty cat,

103
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 3: the external cat, opens its mouth and then we cut

104
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 3: to an effect shot where a wet, screaming secondary animal

105
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 3: emerges from inside the cat mouth, and this interior beast

106
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 3: is represented by a puppet that looks like a cross

107
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 3: between the damp weasel and pumpkinhead. And it is this

108
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 3: creature that leaps out and bites and scratches and kills

109
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 3: and deposits poison on the humans. So what is this

110
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 3: beast inside the cute cat? Is it also a cat?

111
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 3: And I was also wondering how does it turn back

112
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,679
Speaker 3: into the cute fluffy cat after each attack is finished?

113
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 3: Does it climb back into the mouth.

114
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: It does. You might have missed it, but there is

115
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 1: one scene where we see it beginning to crawl back in.

116
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 3: Oh, okay, I've just forgotten that. Yeah, So I was wondering, though,

117
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 3: are the interior beast and the exterior beast, like, are

118
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 3: they necessarily attached or can they fully separate? And if

119
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 3: they separate, can they both be independently alive or can

120
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 3: the exterior cat not live without the interior cat or

121
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 3: the interior whatever it is?

122
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:58,239
Speaker 1: These are questions we cannot fully answer. Yeah, the outer

123
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: shell cat of cat thing seems to be dormant while

124
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 1: it is killing and rampaging, and then it crawled into

125
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: it like it's a cat suit bundy sock just sitting there. Yeah,

126
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 1: but yeah, is that part of the cat. Is it

127
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: a host for this parasite? We don't know. I mean,

128
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: the only other major bit of evidence I might turn

129
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: to is the ending to the picture or the ending

130
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: to the main cut of the picture. But we'll have

131
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 1: to come back to that one.

132
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 3: So I want to mention I found online the Dutch

133
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 3: VHS cover which has a couple of good taglines, one

134
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 3: especially good one. I don't know if these would have

135
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 3: appeared on other national packaging as well, but at least

136
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 3: on this box. It has one tagline, which is cats

137
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 3: have nine lives, you only have one. Nice ends with

138
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 3: the ellipsis and then exclamation, one of the most cryptic

139
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 3: punctuation combinations. Then the other tagline, not quite as good,

140
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 3: is they paid for the holiday of a lifetime with

141
00:07:59,120 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 3: their live.

142
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: Hmmm, that that's rather inaccurate. I don't think anybody's paying

143
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: for a holiday of a lifetime in this No.

144
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 3: No, uh, well, I mean I think that the Yeah,

145
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 3: the spring Breaker characters are initially looking for a good time,

146
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 3: but they it quickly goes off the rails, like It's

147
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 3: not like one of these movies where everybody's just they

148
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 3: still think they're partying until Jason the moment Jason shows

149
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 3: up and wax him with an axe.

150
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is not the cat thing meets love boat,

151
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: as we'll get into when we discuss the plot.

152
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 3: Though there is some Jason similarity. Like I was thinking

153
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 3: about how the cat often attacks and punishes people right

154
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,839
Speaker 3: after they have sinned or done wrong. It does sort

155
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 3: of follow some slasher movie logic there where with the

156
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 3: cat as moral executioner. Not in every single case. Sometimes

157
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 3: some rather innocent people catch it, but it's mostly you

158
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,319
Speaker 3: do evil and then the cat.

159
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: Kills you, right, and the cat is the judge.

160
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 3: Okay, So my elevator, which for uninvited is Garfield meets

161
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 3: basket Case versus Gordon Gecko all wrapped up in some

162
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 3: Jason takes Manhattan.

163
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 1: Yep, that sounds accurate. Yeah, all right, well, let's listen

164
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: to just a little bit of one of the trailers

165
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: for this picture, because there's, as you might expect, there's

166
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of screaming and cat gowling, and

167
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: we can only take so much of that. But just

168
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: a little taste here.

169
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 3: They say cats have nine lives, You have only one

170
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 3: a poisonous can. Now, how is that possible? Things gonna

171
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 3: mind us and We're Gonna Die on.

172
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 2: Uninvited, starring George Kennedy and Alex Cord.

173
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 3: You'll never look at a count.

174
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: In the same way again, all right. So if you

175
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: want to watch Uninvited for yourself again, that's Uninvited from

176
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty seven or nineteen eighty eight, depending on who's

177
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 1: classifying it. Well, you can stream this one in a

178
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: number of places, but the vinegar syndrome blu ray that

179
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: we mentioned already is the ideal physical media choice for

180
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 1: this picture. The footage is scanned and restored in four

181
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: K from its thirty five millimeters original camera negative, and

182
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: it features a nice smattering of extras, including the ninety

183
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: three minute alternate international edit, which is quite hard to

184
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 1: find elsewhere. I wasn't able to find it streaming anywhere

185
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 1: and so forth. It features an alternate intro and outro,

186
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: as well as the horrendous Uninvited theme song by Chili

187
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:53,559
Speaker 1: Charles and.

188
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 3: Tom gunn oh Man.

189
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,439
Speaker 1: That's so funny, absolutely terrible. This is one of those

190
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: cases where it's like, yes, you were right to cut

191
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,439
Speaker 1: this theme song for the American audience.

192
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 3: It sounds like the theme music to a one season

193
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 3: running sitcom from the eighties.

194
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: Yes, it's terrible like kat Thing was going to have

195
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 1: his own his or her own TV show.

196
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 3: Yeah boo, but doo do do so?

197
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a great disc. I like yourself many

198
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 1: years ago, rented this from Video Drome, the video rental

199
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: store here in Atlanta, and you know, as I was

200
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 1: returning it just yesterday, I ran into a couple of

201
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 1: listeners and had a delightful little conversation. They were from

202
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 1: out of town. I'm not going to name them here

203
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 1: because I didn't clear that with them when I was

204
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,559
Speaker 1: chatting with them, but it was nice to run into

205
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: a couple of listeners at Video Drome. We've heard from

206
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: a few different listeners from out of town who, while

207
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: visiting Atlanta have made the journey, the pilgrimage to the Drum.

208
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 3: That's a beautiful thing.

209
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, so's There's a non zero chance you'll run into

210
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,199
Speaker 1: me there, but you don't count on it. You might

211
00:11:53,280 --> 00:12:04,319
Speaker 1: catch me. All right. Let's talk about the people behind

212
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: this film, starting with the director, of the writer and

213
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 1: one of the producers. It's great and Clark. Sometimes I

214
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: have pronounced his name Grayton Clark, and I think that's

215
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: because he frequently casts Jodn Baker, and so I kind

216
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 1: of take the Jodon energy and create the Great On.

217
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 1: So I may refer to him as Great On Clark

218
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: at some point here as well.

219
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 3: I think I hear it with the cadence of Raydon Chong.

220
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, that too is probably influencing it.

221
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 3: So.

222
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: Grayton Clark was born in nineteen forty three, American director

223
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 1: and writer that you might remember from past Weird House

224
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 1: Cinema episodes because we've covered two of his pictures before,

225
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: both from nineteen eighty Without Warning, which was our first

226
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: episode of Weird House Cinema, and then we subsequently subsequently

227
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 1: talked about the Return. So we talked about a Graydon

228
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 1: Clark proto Predator film as well as a cattle mutilation thriller.

229
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 3: I think both of those movies have some ironic sensibility,

230
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 3: but they were both more straight forward attempts at horror

231
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 3: than Uninvited. I think Uninvited is he's cutting loose a

232
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 3: little bit more than in the other two.

233
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think it may be attempting to check

234
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 1: off some extra boxes, especially for international distribution like this

235
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: one has a certain certain amount of I would say,

236
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: especially in the US, cut kind of a PG sexploitation

237
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 1: quality to it, but in a weird way, like it

238
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: was like it was written and conceived for the most

239
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: part by like a twelve year old, a.

240
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 3: Lot of bathing suit antics.

241
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, bathing suit antics, and like, yeah, well, we'll get

242
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: into it. But it has this kind of weird PG

243
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: quality that I really like. I mean, yeah, it's seen

244
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: plenty of exploitation films that are a whole lot sleazier,

245
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 1: and it's nice to encounter one that has pulled back somewhat,

246
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,559
Speaker 1: so Graydon's Clark. Other film credits included Let's se a

247
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: pair of black exploitation films, seventy three's Tom and seventy

248
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: six is Black Shampoo, some horror comedy, There's seventy seven

249
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 1: Satan's Cheerleaders, and not one, but two films featured on

250
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: Mystery Science Theater three thousand, seventy Nine's Angels Brigade and

251
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: the nineteen eighty four Jodn Baker International cop film Final Justice.

252
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 3: I had forgotten that Graydon Clark did Final Justice, especially

253
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 3: since we just recently rewatched the Mystery Science Theater of

254
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 3: this one man. Final Justice is so much It is

255
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 3: not anywhere near as fun of a movie as the

256
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 3: three Graydon Clark movies we've done on Weird House. It

257
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 3: is a step or two below.

258
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: There's no specio development to that one. As I recall,

259
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: it's just an international cop film starring Jodan.

260
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 3: It's just Jodn Baker running around Malta in a sheriff

261
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 3: suit that almost looks like one of those old Nashville

262
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 3: country music kind of outfits and just shooting bad guys.

263
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 3: And he gets into prison like twelve times in the movie.

264
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, that one, and there's as the main thing I

265
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 1: remember from Final Justice, of course, is there's this great

266
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 1: shot like through Jodon's arm, like you're behind him and

267
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 1: he has his hands on his hips and we're shooting

268
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: through the gap between his arm and his side. It's ridiculous.

269
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: It's a little thing. Sometimes.

270
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 3: Unfortunately I had to remember it's not from Final Justice.

271
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 3: It's from Mitchell that has that great riff in the

272
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 3: mst where he's like digging around in the shower in

273
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 3: his apartment and they go, what does this thing do?

274
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: Ah? Joe Don rest in peace. Yeah, recently passed, but yeah,

275
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: he was always a fun screen presence. All right, Let's

276
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 1: see other films worth noting from Graydon Clark. He did

277
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: a couple of films that were made in post Soviet

278
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: Russia ninety twos Dance Macabre and ninety three's Russian Holiday,

279
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty three video game sex comedy named title Joysticks,

280
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: a nineteen eighty nine skinhead movie, ninety four is Dark Future,

281
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: and his last film, Star Games. In nineteen eighty eight.

282
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 1: He worked with Jodan bay Are on three pictures, and

283
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: he did tend to gravitate toward using a fair number

284
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: of older, established actors who were working in B cinema

285
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: at the time, something we definitely see in today's film

286
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 1: and in general worked with a lot of notable B

287
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: movie actors of the seventies and eighties, including Wingshauser, Jack Palance,

288
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: Robert England, and John Kerodyine. Not everybody gets to work

289
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 1: with John Garretty, so most.

290
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 3: Oh weird that John Keridyine wasn't in the movie we

291
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 3: watched today, since he is in most films.

292
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: He was shooting three other films at the same time simultaneously,

293
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: I see so great and clark films are generally not

294
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: considered good movies by most people. Virtually none of his

295
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 1: films cracked five stars were above out of ten on

296
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: Internet Movie Database. Not that that means anything really, but

297
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 1: these are b movies, often with a certain and exploitive

298
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: air to them in one way or another, but they

299
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 1: often strike that perfect cheesy movie balance. You know, it's

300
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: a film that's for the most part competently made in

301
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 1: involving talented professionals, but a film that also makes wild

302
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: swings and doesn't land every punch, or at least not

303
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,919
Speaker 1: in the way they were intended, but still results in

304
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 1: a very watchable and entertaining ride.

305
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 3: If I have a technical critique of Uninvited, the biggest

306
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 3: one is that too many shots are taking place outside

307
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 3: on a boat, and it is so windy it is

308
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:27,680
Speaker 3: hard to hear the dialogue.

309
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:32,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, apparently this was a tough shoot because on one hand,

310
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: there it's like NonStop cats. So they had a number

311
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: of cats playing the one cat in the picture and cats.

312
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 1: If you've ever if you know anything about animals and film,

313
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: you know that cats are notoriously difficult to shoot. Everyone

314
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: generally is like, yes, bring me a dog.

315
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 3: Any day.

316
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: A dog will hit its mark and do what you

317
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 1: want it to do.

318
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:51,919
Speaker 3: You know.

319
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 1: Horses are also a known commodity. Cats you can try,

320
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 1: you can see what you can get out of them,

321
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: but a wilder element, you know, like cats with cats,

322
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 1: it's like working with the you know, I don't know,

323
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 1: one of the more difficult actors and out there. I

324
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,880
Speaker 1: don't even know if there's a proper analogy, like it's cats.

325
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 1: Not only are cat's going to do their own thing,

326
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: but cats often look like they are doing their own

327
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 1: thing in movies, even like a really you can think

328
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: of like really good movies that have cats in them,

329
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 1: and the scenes in which you see the cats or

330
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 1: that lean to heavily on cats doing stuff. It almost

331
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 1: kind of throws you out of the picture a little

332
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: bit sometimes because like you can just look at that

333
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 1: cat and you're like, yeah, that cat is just checked out.

334
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 1: That cat's doing its own thing. It is not in

335
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 1: the moment, it's not in the scene. It didn't even

336
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 1: read the script.

337
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 3: I wonder if longtime directors could do a comparison, like

338
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 3: what is more difficult cat versus the most notoriously difficult

339
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 3: actors like Lawrence Tierney or something like that, You know,

340
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 3: which one is more stressful on set?

341
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. There's probably some crossover there in the

342
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 1: experiences are the other difficult things about the film those courses.

343
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 1: Most of it is shot on a boat, and I

344
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 1: didn't even think about this, but this is something the

345
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 1: cinematographer pointed out in one of the Vinegar Syndrome extras,

346
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 1: Like that meant that when they're out on the boat,

347
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: they only have so much power, and that limits how

348
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 1: much lighting they can use. Yeah, and cats don't necessarily

349
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:19,959
Speaker 1: like being on a boat either, so that also constrains

350
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 1: their performance. But cats, they this was a decision by

351
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 1: grad And to have cats in this picture. Apparently he

352
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 1: was thinking about it being rats, which that would have

353
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: been scary, That would have made for a ridiculous puppet

354
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 1: and rats on a boat, you know. That's that also

355
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 1: has a lot of a lot to back it up.

356
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: But they said, no, it's going to be cats. It's

357
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,160
Speaker 1: going to be a killer mutant cat. Obvious John Carpenter's

358
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: the thing vibes to a certain extent here. Oh yeah,

359
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: but yeah, they went with the cat.

360
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 3: Now this makes me wonder what was the thematic seed

361
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 3: of the film, Like, what is the core element that

362
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,919
Speaker 3: they were trying to get down to? Is it boat?

363
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 3: Is it? Like this has to be a boat movie

364
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 3: and everything else was around that or was it. Obviously

365
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 3: you're saying it's not cat, but I guess it would

366
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 3: have been maybe a mutant creature from a lab. Is

367
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 3: that the core?

368
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think the core was we're going to shoot

369
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 1: it on a boat, and we need a mutant creature.

370
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: We want to hit that sci fi horror zone. Okay,

371
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 1: And yeah, everything else they just kind of figured out

372
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 1: from there, including you know, first finding the boat, then

373
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 1: finding people to wrangle the cats, and they did use

374
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 1: them to understand, like a proficient professional cat wranglers here,

375
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 1: this is not just getting me a boat, give me

376
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 1: some cats. So you know, supposedly everything here is above board,

377
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:41,360
Speaker 1: but again, even cat pros are going to only get

378
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 1: you so far.

379
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 3: The exterior killer cat is very cute, and if they

380
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,960
Speaker 3: were switching them out with with lookalikes, I couldn't tell.

381
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 3: It always looked like the same cat to me.

382
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 1: I want to mention really quickly that the individuals involved

383
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: with the puppet cats that we see, oh it's the

384
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 1: it's Jim Bolden born fifty six and Debbie Bolden, and

385
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: these two did like animal artificial animal effects on a

386
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 1: number of other films, including Loaded Weapon one from ninety three,

387
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 1: Ace Venturro When Nature Calls from ninety five, and a

388
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 1: ninety one White Fang film.

389
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 3: So did they do the rhinoceros that gives birth to

390
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 3: Jim Carrey one hopes?

391
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they were animal makers inc. I don't know

392
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 1: if they're still around, but they were active for a

393
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: little bit there in the late eighties and into the

394
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 1: mid nineties. All right, let's get into the human actors

395
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,439
Speaker 1: a bit here. So I want to divide things up

396
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: into factions here, okay, because essentially we have two main

397
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: factions and then an individual suspended between the two. We

398
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: have our corporate creepers, and then we also have our

399
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: spring breakers.

400
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 3: That is pretty much it. You've got your I guess

401
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 3: the spring Burger is supposed to be like early twenties.

402
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,119
Speaker 3: I think a couple of them mentioned being in graduate school,

403
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 3: so like grad students and adjacent frame who are just

404
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 3: looking to party, looking to go to the beach and

405
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 3: have a good time. And then yeah, you've got these

406
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 3: Gordon Gecko types who are out there just trying to

407
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,639
Speaker 3: run some greasy deals and get away to the Cayman

408
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 3: Islands with the suitcases full of cash.

409
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the leader of this faction is Wall Street

410
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 1: Walter Graham. This is our sleazy, yacht owning, womanizing, money

411
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 1: laundering employee, abusing, charismatic millionaire dirt bag. Compare him to

412
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 1: any contemporary figures you like. And he is played here

413
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: by Alex Cord, who lived nineteen thirty three through twenty

414
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:38,120
Speaker 1: twenty one. Probably best remembered by many for his main

415
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 1: cast role on TV's Airwolf from eighty four through eighty six,

416
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 1: but it's credits go back to nineteen sixty one. Did

417
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 1: a lot of TV, including episodes of Night Gallery, Mission Impossible,

418
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,640
Speaker 1: and Murder. She wrote. His film credits include sixty nine Stiletto,

419
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 1: seventy twos of the Dead or Alive, eighty one's Goliatha Waits,

420
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: eighty four's Jungle Warriors with John Vernon and Sybil Danning,

421
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:00,880
Speaker 1: and ninety five Hologram Man.

422
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,640
Speaker 3: I have several thoughts about well, all of the corporate characters,

423
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 3: but especially at Wall Street. Walter Graham here is the

424
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:13,360
Speaker 3: big boss of the corporate schemers, and he he has

425
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 3: a great look. For one thing, he has this just

426
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 3: really iconic mustache. Yes, But another thing I was thinking

427
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 3: about Robert I pulled up a picture for you to

428
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 3: look at here. So this is supposed to be set

429
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 3: on a yacht in the Caribbean. Yeah right, it's in

430
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,159
Speaker 3: the you know, it's in the Gulf of Mexico and

431
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,639
Speaker 3: the Caribbean, and so you and it's supposed to be

432
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,959
Speaker 3: warm outside. But our corporate characters, this guy dresses in

433
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 3: like a wool sweater on his yacht. Are you seeing this?

434
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yep, he's wearing a sweater on. George gets

435
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 1: kind of windy at night, I.

436
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 3: Guess, so George Kennedy, who will get to in a minute.

437
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 3: He wears a suit jacket like the whole time. Everybody

438
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 3: else is just wearing bathing suits.

439
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it's just it's what he it's what he's

440
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,959
Speaker 1: comfortable in. I don't know, okay, yeah, maybe he's cold blooded.

441
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 1: You know, he's the hopefully play at Wall Street type.

442
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 3: Yes, he is Reptilian.

443
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,439
Speaker 1: Well I think Cord Yeah, just completely nails it here.

444
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 1: He's believably charismatic and sleazy. It's a fun performance. And

445
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 1: you can't wait for this guy to get killed by

446
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: the cat thing.

447
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they save that for toward the end. Yeah,

448
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 3: it's good.

449
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 1: All right now. His right hand man and muscle is

450
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 1: Mike Harvey, and he is played by the legendary George Kennedy,

451
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: who lived nineteen twenty five through twenty sixteen. George Kennedy,

452
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 1: of course, won the nineteen sixty eight Best Supporting Actor

453
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: Oscar for his role in Cool Hand Luke memorable performance there.

454
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 1: His TV credits go back to fifty six and he

455
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 1: did a lot of it, including seventy five episodes of Dallas.

456
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: Movie Wise, many of you might remember him from nineteen

457
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 1: eighty eight's The Naked Gun and its sequel, but he

458
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 1: appeared in all manner of projects big and small, prestige

459
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,639
Speaker 1: and schlock. So, for instance, you'll find him in sixty

460
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 1: three Charade, sixty five's The Sons of Katie Elder, sixty

461
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: seven's The Dirty Doesen, seventy five is The Eiger Sanction,

462
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 1: and eighty one's Modern Romance. But he's also in the

463
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 1: likes of eighty one's Just Before Dawn, eighty seven's Creep Show,

464
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:11,399
Speaker 1: two eighty eight's Demon Warp, and just in multiple disaster films.

465
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 1: You know, especially from like the seventies and maybe the

466
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: early eighties. Always a fun screen presence he tended to

467
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:22,640
Speaker 1: play like blunt, straightforward characters, but could go like tough

468
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: guy with a heart of gold, like in Cool Hand Luke,

469
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,239
Speaker 1: or like a solid heavy villain role as in this

470
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:29,120
Speaker 1: film this one.

471
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 3: I was a little confused about what his power level

472
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 3: relationship is to Wall Street Walter Graham. There's another guy

473
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 3: we'll get to in a second who's definitely a henchman

474
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 3: like Albert, who we're about to talk about, is definitely

475
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 3: Graham's henchman. Can't quite tell with the Mike character here.

476
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, because at times he's speaking to Wall Street Walter

477
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: Graham almost like they're equal, like their partners, you know,

478
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: bossing him a little bit and reminding him about what's important. Yeah,

479
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:01,400
Speaker 1: so yeah, right hand man or part nor. I think

480
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:02,959
Speaker 1: you could maybe push it in either direction.

481
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,880
Speaker 3: There's a good scene where he it doesn't quite get

482
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 3: fully bitten off, but it looks like, for a second

483
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 3: his leg is getting bitten off by a cat.

484
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,919
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, he gets, he gets, he's he gets a

485
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,919
Speaker 1: pretty early attack, all right. And then yeah, Albert, this

486
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,879
Speaker 1: other character, who, as you said, is definitely a hinchman

487
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 1: of some sort. I thought maybe he was like a

488
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:26,199
Speaker 1: money man like he's something. Maybe it's the glasses through me.

489
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's weird, strange character. So this is Albert played

490
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 3: by klu Gooliger who lived nineteen twenty eight to twenty

491
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,440
Speaker 3: twenty two. I love klue Gooliger and a lot of stuff.

492
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 3: He's the boss of the warehouse in Return of the

493
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 3: Living Dead. Yeah you remember that. He's got a funny

494
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 3: role where he gets called in by his employees because oops,

495
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 3: they accidentally got a zombie in the warehouse. And you know,

496
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 3: there's one scene where he's having him open the door.

497
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 3: He's like, you open the door, I'm gonna go stand

498
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 3: back over here. But in this movie, it's an unusual

499
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,439
Speaker 3: kind of role because he is a hinchman. That is

500
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 3: his role in the plot. He's like the button man,

501
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:09,400
Speaker 3: but he is Wall Street Walter's weird neurotic button man.

502
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:13,640
Speaker 3: He's like a cross between Gary Busey and Lethal Weapon

503
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 3: and George Costanza.

504
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,879
Speaker 1: That's a good point. Yeah, yeah, there's some definite comic

505
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 1: wrinkles to this character. So Klute Gooliger lived nineteen twenty

506
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 1: eight through twenty twenty two, and his career can essentially

507
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 1: be divided into two distinct phases. So his initial TV

508
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 1: heavy career. This included a co starring role on as

509
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: Billy the Kid on The Tall Man from nineteen sixty

510
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 1: through sixty one opposite Barry Sullivan from Planet to the Vampires.

511
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:42,880
Speaker 3: Oh okay, one of the Spacemen.

512
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, he did one hundred and four episodes of The

513
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 1: Virginian plus he did all sorts of other TV shows

514
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,160
Speaker 1: during this time period. But then later in life he

515
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,880
Speaker 1: essentially became a horror movie staple in his own right,

516
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,159
Speaker 1: actually beginning with seventy three's The Mystery in Dracula's Castle,

517
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: but really kicking into high gear in eighty five with

518
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 1: both a Nightmare on Elm Street Part two and as

519
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 1: you mentioned, the Return of the Living Dead.

520
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 3: In Nightmare on Elm Street Part two, he is either

521
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 3: the main character or the main character's friend's dad. I

522
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 3: think he's the main character's dad. And there's a funny

523
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 3: scene if I'm remembering correctly, where he is attacked by

524
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 3: a possessed parakeet.

525
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: Oh wow, I don't often see that in these Nightmare

526
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 1: on Elm Street highlight videos that people put together online.

527
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 3: Not a lot of highlights come from part two. That's

528
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 3: not no, I don't know I think that one has

529
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 3: been maybe assessed a little bit more favorably in recent years.

530
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 3: It does have a cool scene where Freddy cuts open

531
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,479
Speaker 3: his own scalp and peels it back to reveal his brain.

532
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,320
Speaker 1: All right, Yeah, that's why I don't think I ever

533
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 1: saw that one. Yeah, I think I've mainly seen the

534
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 1: original from Wes Craven, parts of some of the Dream

535
00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: Warrior era films and what New Okay, maybe I've seen

536
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 1: several I've seen New Nightmare, and then I've seen the

537
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 1: remake they did several years back.

538
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 3: Nightmare two is has been notable for a long time

539
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 3: for having pretty overwhelming homo erotic themes, which for a

540
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 3: long time I think was sort of treated in the

541
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,719
Speaker 3: fan community as more a source of comedy because they

542
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 3: were seen as unintentional, kind of unintentional, almost taken as

543
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 3: like a kind of Freudian slip thing. But I think

544
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 3: more recently it's been read a different way that maybe like, oh,

545
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 3: this is just sort of like what the thematic content

546
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 3: of the movie is, and that's kind of.

547
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: Interesting, interesting, Maybe I should check it out. All right,

548
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: So after a Return of the Living Dead, Guliger appeared

549
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 1: and let's see eighty six is Hunter's Blood eighty sevens

550
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 1: From a Whisper to a Scream, as well as The

551
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 1: Hidden eighty nine's Teen Vamp nineteen nineties, the Willies ninety

552
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 1: four's puppet Master five. His son, actor and director John Guliger,

553
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 1: also cast him in his two thousand and five film Feast,

554
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: as well as its two sequels. He also pops up

555
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 1: in twenty twelve's Piranha three Double D. I did not

556
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 1: see this one, and then a couple of his final credits.

557
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 1: We're kind of a return to non genre work. He's

558
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen's Blue Jay, written by and starring Marked Deplaw,

559
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 1: as well as a cameo in twenty nineteen's Once Upon

560
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 1: a Time in Hollywood.

561
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 3: Oh, didn't catch him in the Tarantino movie. I helped.

562
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's I think it's just a very small role cameo.

563
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 1: It was like in a bookstore or something. I do

564
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 1: not remember spotting him, but he was in there.

565
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 3: Okay, So those are all the bad guys, all the

566
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 3: corporate creeps. But we also have a cast of more

567
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 3: likable characters, the characters of varying likability, the spring Breakers,

568
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 3: the twenty somethings that were just out looking to have

569
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 3: a good time.

570
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. I'd say out of the spring Breakers, we ultimately

571
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: only have like one really likable character. Yeah, and that

572
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: is going to be Martin. Martin is a biology major

573
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 1: or I forget where he is in his schooling, but

574
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 1: he is a future biologist.

575
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 3: They say he's a grad student.

576
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, he's a grad student. Played by Eric Larson

577
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 1: born in nineteen sixty seven, an American actor who also

578
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: appeared in the nineteen ninety film Demon Wind and pops

579
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,560
Speaker 1: up in one episode of TV's Angel.

580
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 3: At First, the main characters of this movie are some

581
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 3: of the last characters introduced. Did you notice that?

582
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, because initially we meet Bobby and Suzanne, who

583
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 1: are a couple of really almost interchangeable spring Breakers who

584
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: are wearing just like what just like basically just their

585
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 1: swimsuits and parts of an airbrush T shirt like they

586
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: are spring spring spring breaking. They are spring breaking hard here.

587
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 3: Yes, they're in I think the starts in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

588
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 3: They say they're in Florida. Look into party, and they

589
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 3: are the ones who initially make contact with Wall Street

590
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 3: Walter Graham and are invited aboard his yacht to party

591
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 3: some more, and that's how the whole thing gets going.

592
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 3: But then they also end up meeting some random spring

593
00:31:56,160 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 3: breakers grad student dudes on a like in a marine somewhere,

594
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 3: and then they're like, hey, come on this boat with us.

595
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 3: And obviously wall Street Walter does not want all these.

596
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 1: Dudes, right, but he also for plot reasons, is like, Okay,

597
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,080
Speaker 1: all your brand new boyfriends can come aboard my sex

598
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: shot as well. So Bobby and Suzanne here. Bobby is

599
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 1: the curly blonde spring Breaker and she is played by

600
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 1: Claire Carey born sixty seven. Her first TV and film

Speaker 1: eighth Death Spa and Desert Warrior, as well as nineteen

609
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: eighty nine's arena, which we've previously covered on the show.

610
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 3: That sort of arena was sort of a creature effects showcase.

611
00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, creature effects like boxing movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it

612
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 1: was a lot of fun. Let's say she's also in

Speaker 1: from ninety six through ninety nine.

616
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 3: All Right, so they initially are going to go on

617
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 3: the ad, but then they also find some some cool

618
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:16,160
Speaker 3: boys to bring with.

619
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 1: Them, right, and that includes Martin, who we already mentioned,

620
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 1: but it also includes Lance. Lance is the wrestler. That's

621
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 1: his whole thing is he's a little beefier than the

622
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 1: other two, you know, has like a lower center of

623
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 1: gravity and is there to grapple. He is played by

624
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 1: Bo Dremmond born nineteen sixty three. His other credits include

625
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 1: eighty five's My Science Project and ninety one's Frankenstein The

626
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 1: College Years, which I don't know much about, but it looks, oh,

627
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: it looks horrendous.

628
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 3: This is the jock of the group.

629
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he's the jock. And then we also have

630
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 1: the preppy. This is the character Corey, played by Rob estes.

631
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 1: Corey is a huge Walter Graham family. He knows who

632
00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 1: this guy is. He's like, Oh, I can't believe we're

633
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 1: about to meat wall Street Walter Graham.

634
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 3: He says he's been on the cover of Forbes magazine

635
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 3: twice twice. Wow.

636
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:12,800
Speaker 1: So yeah, Corey here is one of the least likable

637
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,800
Speaker 1: of the bunch. But the actor who plays in robst

638
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 1: has appeared on eighty nine episodes of Days of Our

639
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 1: Lives in eighty six and eighty seven prior to this film.

640
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,799
Speaker 1: He went on to do one hundred episodes of Silk

641
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:27,359
Speaker 1: Stalkings in the early nineties, ninety six episodes of melrose Place,

642
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: in forty six episodes of nine O two one OHO,

643
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 1: and has continued to work in TV and film. It

644
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,439
Speaker 1: looks like he was nominated for a twenty ten teen

645
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 1: Choice Award. They apparently had a Parental Unit Award category

646
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,239
Speaker 1: for like mom and Dad characters. He was nominated alongside

647
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: co star Lori Laughlin, didn't win. I don't know whose

648
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: parents beat beat beat them out that year. I like

649
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 1: the idea of this award, though, best parents, like the

650
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,880
Speaker 1: parents in movies, don't get enough love. This needs to

651
00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 1: be an Oscar category as well.

652
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 3: I think they should have an actor categories for best jock,

653
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 3: best biology major, best best Preppy.

654
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:10,440
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, absolutely, this would be great. If slasher movies

655
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:12,879
Speaker 1: were more in style, you could have the Slashies. Maybe

656
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: there is? Is there ben award called the Slashies? If not,

657
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: there should be.

658
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, I see where you could have like best nerd,

659
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 3: best punk Rocker, best best jock. Yeah all that.

660
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, all right. So those are our two main factions.

661
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,440
Speaker 1: And then we have a character that is kind of

662
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 1: suspended between the two because she's also young and so

663
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 1: she has a lot in common with the spring Breakers,

664
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 1: but she works for wall Street Walter Graham because she

665
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,720
Speaker 1: is the captain of the boat. And this is Rachel

666
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 1: played by Tony Hudson born nineteen sixty.

667
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, so this is the other main good character along

668
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 3: with Martin, the biology guy. She's I would say the

669
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 3: movie actually does a pretty good job at making her

670
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 3: a sympathetic protagonist, especially since we meet her so late.

671
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,440
Speaker 3: As I was saying earlier, like the character that we

672
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 3: end up liking the most and are the survivors at

673
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,400
Speaker 3: the end are the ones we meet last.

674
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, the film is like we have one more blonde

675
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 1: lady to introduce you to, and she's gonna be the

676
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 1: main one. Yeah, so you can get a little confusing.

677
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 1: Tony Hudson's credits include supporting roles in nineteen eighty four's

678
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 1: Places in the Heart, as well as leather Face Texas

679
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,720
Speaker 1: Chainsaw Massacre three. This is the one that featured Vigo

680
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: Mortensen as one of the Sawyer Klan.

681
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 3: Oh wow, okay, you know, I think I've never seen

682
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 3: that one.

683
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 1: I have, but it has been it's been a long time.

684
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 1: It was. I think this one was, in many ways

685
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 1: kind of like a rehash of the first one, kind

686
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: of a sort of sort of a remake of the

687
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:46,839
Speaker 1: original Texas Chainsaw Massacre with some you know, with some

688
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,680
Speaker 1: updated vibes. And yeah, that about the only thing I

689
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:53,240
Speaker 1: remember is Vigo popping up as a cannibal redneck.

690
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 3: This character is another reason Uninvited reminds me of Jason

691
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 3: Takes Manhattan, because you may recall in Jason Takes Manhattan,

692
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 3: of course, it's like it's a slasher movie on a boat,

693
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 3: but one of the main characters is the son of

694
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 3: a boat captain who is being like prepared to be

695
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,879
Speaker 3: a boat captain. Himself. That's the same thing with Tony

696
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,360
Speaker 3: Hudson's character here. She is the daughter of a boat

697
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:21,360
Speaker 3: captain who has like inherited the family boat captain ship,

698
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 3: and she's you know, and like there's a lot of

699
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 3: drama about the fact that she's a boat captain and

700
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,320
Speaker 3: wanting to be a boat captain on her own terms.

701
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:34,319
Speaker 1: Yeah. So yeah, I would say this character is more

702
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,360
Speaker 1: fleshed out than most of the others, and it's a

703
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 1: decent performance. I like Rachel in this picture. You're rooting

704
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 1: for her, Yeah, even though she is forced to make

705
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,919
Speaker 1: some ethical compromises.

706
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. Multiple times they're like, yes, somebody did fall overboard,

707
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,160
Speaker 3: but we can't go back and look for them, and

708
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 3: here are the reasons.

709
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right. Two more credits I want to mention.

710
00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:01,319
Speaker 1: These are behind the scenes Nicholas Joseph von Sternberg. It

711
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 1: was the cinematographer born nineteen fifty one, son of Silent

712
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 1: and Sound Era Academy Award nominated director Joseph von Sternberg.

713
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:12,760
Speaker 1: He did thirty one's Morocco in nineteen thirty two Shanghai Express,

714
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 1: those were the nominated pictures. So the son here Nicholas

715
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 1: Joseph von Sternberg grew up in the filmmaking business, and

716
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:23,360
Speaker 1: among his best mainstream films are probably Let's See Texasville

717
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 1: from nineteen ninety directed by Peter Bogdanovich, and Crime and

718
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,320
Speaker 1: Punishment from two thousand and two. This was one was

719
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 1: directed by Menahem Golan who directed The Apple, but it

720
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 1: had a great cast. They had like Vanessa Redgraves and

721
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,520
Speaker 1: John Hurt and so forth. But Sternberg von Sternberg, the

722
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 1: younger here also worked on a load of B movies,

723
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 1: seventy five's Dolomite, seventy nine's Tourist Trap, Graydon Clark's Wacko

724
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:52,320
Speaker 1: from eighty two Joysticks, eighty four's Jungle Warriors, Final Justice,

725
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 1: Dark Future, Star Games, and more. And then finally, the

726
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 1: score for this picture is by Dan Slider. Dates not

727
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: public record as far as I could tell. He also

728
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 1: scored eighty eighths Demonwarp, which also starred George Kennedy. This

729
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,399
Speaker 1: was his first grade in Clark picture, but he'd work

730
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,800
Speaker 1: with him several more times and even has a story

731
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 1: credit on ninety four's Dark Future.

732
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 3: I think I have not seen Demon Warp, but have

733
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:20,360
Speaker 3: been been circling it for a while. One night, that'll happen.

734
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 1: So the score here, I thought it was fun and effective.

735
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 1: The main thing that really struck me is they keep

736
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 1: using that Labyrinth style synth cascade effect. We've talked about

737
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,319
Speaker 1: this before, It's popped up in other pictures. Did we

738
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 1: ever determine what the name for this is?

739
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,360
Speaker 3: Oh? Are you talking about the whole tone scale? Yeah?

740
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:40,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's it.

741
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 3: Okay, that did come up, and the listener contributed to

742
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,240
Speaker 3: our trying to find the name for that. But yes,

743
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 3: where it's like, it's not really any actual key in music,

744
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 3: so it produces this kind of weird, ambiguous feeling.

745
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, I generally associate with any time Jareth is doing

746
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,360
Speaker 1: something in Labyrinth, we get that effect, and anytime the

747
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 1: cat is doing anything suspicious in this picture, we also

748
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:05,480
Speaker 1: get that effect.

749
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 3: All right, you ready to look at the plot.

750
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: Let's do it.

751
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 3: Well. You always want to begin a movie with a

752
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 3: strong image at the top to establish themes, you know,

753
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,240
Speaker 3: what should people be thinking about? And here they chose

754
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:32,800
Speaker 3: an office building. You know, there you go, a cat

755
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:33,720
Speaker 3: office building?

756
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, I mean this is the last movie

757
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 1: we discussed in Weird House Cinema also had an evil,

758
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 1: ominous office building. So you know, it lets us know

759
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 1: that corporations are up to no good right off the bat.

760
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 3: Oh, well, I guess that's true. Yeah, we have a

761
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 3: theme of business malfeasance. Sure. But so after this, we

762
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,040
Speaker 3: go inside and there are a couple of doctors examining

763
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,560
Speaker 3: an X ray. The bones in the image do not

764
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 3: look human, so maybe this some kind of animal. What

765
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:05,240
Speaker 3: animal could it be? And one of the doctors says

766
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 3: there is a mass growing inside the subject, maybe a tumor,

767
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:13,879
Speaker 3: maybe a teratoma. The other doctor seems perplexed. He says

768
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,759
Speaker 3: he's never seen anything like this, and he's like, well,

769
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:18,640
Speaker 3: we got to just bring the subject in. We'll cut

770
00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 3: it open and we'll see what's what's growing in there.

771
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 3: And I was looking at this doctor, I was like,

772
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:24,480
Speaker 3: is this Gradon Clark.

773
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 1: It totally is Gradon Clark. Yeah, okay, yeah, he's now

774
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 1: he's only present in the intro for the US cut

775
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,240
Speaker 1: of the film. The international cut has a shortened intro

776
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 1: where we don't get this particular scene, but in the

777
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 1: international version of the film, he does factor into the outro,

778
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 1: presumably playing a different character.

779
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 3: So we see a guy in a lab coat, go

780
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 3: into a room full of cages and retrieve a cat

781
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:51,839
Speaker 3: from one of the cages and bring it into an

782
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 3: operating room. Do we need any description for our main

783
00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 3: cat other than I think this is the variety we

784
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 3: call an orange tabby.

785
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:05,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, just an absolutely adorable orange tabby. I mean, I

786
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:09,600
Speaker 1: believe multiple orange tabbies playing this one cat character, multiple

787
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 1: feline actors. Yeah, it is an orange tabby cat, likely male.

788
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:19,759
Speaker 1: To understand, most tabbies are male, though we used to

789
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 1: have a female one. Memes would have us know that

790
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,520
Speaker 1: all male orange tabbies share a single brain cell, and

791
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 1: when it's not their turn to have the brain cell,

792
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 1: they do dumb things. I see, But beautiful cat, to

793
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:34,680
Speaker 1: be sure on the outside. On the inside, as we're

794
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,919
Speaker 1: going to see, there's something else going on.

795
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 3: Right, So the doctors get out the hypodermic needle. Seems

796
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 3: like they're about to sedate the cat for surgery to

797
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,400
Speaker 3: figure out what is that growing inside it. But suddenly

798
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 3: it just scampers off the edge of the operating table

799
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:50,719
Speaker 3: and down the hall. There really were no precautions here,

800
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 3: and now the guys holding it and then it just

801
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:54,720
Speaker 3: runs away and they're like, oops.

802
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,919
Speaker 1: They've never done Like, they didn't even have the door shut,

803
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,439
Speaker 1: the door that I usually have the door shut.

804
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 3: Yes, so one of the doctors. But it then seemingly

805
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:09,719
Speaker 3: disproportionate to the level of lack of care. We just saw.

806
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,239
Speaker 3: One of the doctors sprints after it. The other one

807
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,359
Speaker 3: gets on the phone. This is a great clark. He's

808
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:18,920
Speaker 3: on the phone going code red, code red. Uh. He

809
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,680
Speaker 3: calls it by like a serial number has just escaped,

810
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:26,440
Speaker 3: and he's saying, use extreme caution, radiation, security radiation. What.

811
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,480
Speaker 3: So the cat runs down a bunch of metal stairs

812
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,560
Speaker 3: in what looks like a cinderblock bunker, and we see

813
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:37,800
Speaker 3: dudes in hazard suits chasing after it, their red lights flashing,

814
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 3: sirens going off, and Rob, did you what do you

815
00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:44,239
Speaker 3: make of this hazard suit? It looks I don't know,

816
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:47,600
Speaker 3: it looks like a hood that's silvery, like a hood

817
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 3: made out of aluminum foil with eye holes and just

818
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 3: like a big open, frowning mouth hole.

819
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:58,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks like it. We're just kind of like

820
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 1: saggy el Santo. It's kind of the overall feel that

821
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,840
Speaker 1: I get from this, but it's frightening, and the shot

822
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 1: we get it feels like it's the cat's point of view,

823
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 1: like this is a terrifying image this would bring. It

824
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 1: makes sense that this brings the monster out of the cat.

825
00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 3: Right, So the hazmat guys corner the cat. One of

826
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 3: them shoots it with a dart gun, and then the

827
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:21,759
Speaker 3: cat seems at first effectively sedated. It falls down and

828
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,360
Speaker 3: it's like it's going to sleep. But then as the

829
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:29,000
Speaker 3: handlers approach with a carrying case, the unconscious cat's mouth

830
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 3: opens and a weird, smaller, much moister cat like puppet

831
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 3: emerges from the bigger cat's mouth. And then you see

832
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:41,800
Speaker 3: blood splatter on the walls, splatter across all of the

833
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:45,719
Speaker 3: safety signs mounted on the cinder blocks. You hear screams,

834
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 3: and this is our first cat attack.

835
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 1: Yep, yeah again. Kind of looks like a newborn cat,

836
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:53,520
Speaker 1: kind of like a hairball, kind of like a lion.

837
00:44:54,120 --> 00:45:00,879
Speaker 1: Definitely a gromlin. It's a delightfully hideous looking puppet here.

838
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: And you know, maybe the hairball thing, maybe that's what

839
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,840
Speaker 1: they were working on at this lab. They were trying

840
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:10,160
Speaker 1: to genetically engineer a hairball free cat, and they created

841
00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:14,320
Speaker 1: a cat that has like a living hairball cat inside.

842
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 3: It, Right, the hairball becomes its own organism.

843
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I can't help but suspect maybe this was

844
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 1: subconsciously even a part of the monster's genesis and Grayton

845
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 1: Clark's imagination. Like cats are always grow always puking up

846
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 1: gross stuff, and so and so's it's a natural step

847
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 1: to imagine them puking up some sort of a killer cat.

848
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 3: So anyway, the cat, once again in fluffy mode, once

849
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:43,040
Speaker 3: again cute, scampers out into the parking garage, and here

850
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,280
Speaker 3: we see the two doctors pursue it, and the security

851
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 3: guard also they run out there and they proceed with

852
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:51,440
Speaker 3: a cat hunt among the cars while the cat scampers

853
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 3: from place to place.

854
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:54,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's going to be a lot of the

855
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:58,920
Speaker 1: cat scampering from place to place in this film. One

856
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 1: of the things that I instantly love about it because

857
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 1: here's the thing, Like, if you've ever been around cats,

858
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:06,160
Speaker 1: you know that they have different sorts of movements and

859
00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:09,279
Speaker 1: walks depending on what their aims are. You know, such

860
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:13,240
Speaker 1: as the way they'll creep while hunting something. You only

861
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,720
Speaker 1: ever see the cat move one way in this picture,

862
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:18,319
Speaker 1: Like clearly that's the only way that the trainers can

863
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:19,959
Speaker 1: get the cat to go from point A to point

864
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:20,720
Speaker 1: B for the shot.

865
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:25,239
Speaker 3: I think I think all shots are of the cat

866
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:28,680
Speaker 3: scampering to an out of view food bowl.

867
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:30,120
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah.

868
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 3: There's also a good exchange where the other doctor says doctor,

869
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 3: oh well, the Graydon Clark doctor's name is doctor Gray.

870
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 3: He says, doctor Gray, you saw what just happened in

871
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,880
Speaker 3: that stairwell, and doctor Gray is like, shut up about that,

872
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,280
Speaker 3: just shut up about that. We've got to kill that cat.

873
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 3: So it's like they're trying to keep something secret here.

874
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:52,560
Speaker 3: I think maybe they're doing some unethical experiments.

875
00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:55,840
Speaker 1: Who knows. Yeah. By the way, Grad and Clark pretty

876
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 1: good here in this little director's cameo. Oh yeah, he

877
00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:01,440
Speaker 1: did other acting roles, you know, outside of pictures that

878
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,319
Speaker 1: he directed, so it makes sense. But yeah, I kind

879
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 1: of liked him here.

880
00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:07,320
Speaker 3: We should sometime on the show do a list or

881
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:09,919
Speaker 3: a ranking of our favor of our directors who make

882
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:14,080
Speaker 3: the best director cameos. I, for one, really love when

883
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:17,360
Speaker 3: David Cronenberg goes goes in front of the camera.

884
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:21,760
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. Cronenberg has had some really fun ones, including

885
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:24,839
Speaker 1: Jason X where he is killed by Jason Boy.

886
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:28,800
Speaker 3: He's very good, but also is like the creepiest character

887
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:29,800
Speaker 3: ever in Night Breed.

888
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Night Breed. That's when we might come back

889
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 1: to but but but yeah, occasionally you'll get a you

890
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,319
Speaker 1: know a lot of a lot of directors that have

891
00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: fun cameos. We're most recently talking about Scorsese and.

892
00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:44,000
Speaker 3: Oh, that's right in Dreams First Always Dreams.

893
00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:45,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, they have a fun little role there.

894
00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,880
Speaker 3: But anyway, so, yeah, the doctors and the security guards

895
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:52,640
Speaker 3: are running around the Graydon Clark doctor yanks the security

896
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:54,719
Speaker 3: guard's gun out of its whole story. He's like, give

897
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:58,960
Speaker 3: me that. He's just taken charge. But these these slobs

898
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:01,799
Speaker 3: are no match for cat thing. It picks them off

899
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:05,160
Speaker 3: one at a time, and I was truly laughing out

900
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:08,480
Speaker 3: loud at just the random meow sounds as they're running

901
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:09,920
Speaker 3: around in the parking garage.

902
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, just to build tension.

903
00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:15,600
Speaker 3: There's one cool shot when when it's attacking one of them,

904
00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 3: where we just see a shadow, a shadow of like

905
00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:21,760
Speaker 3: a cat head opening two wide, the mouth opening too wide,

906
00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:25,279
Speaker 3: and then the wet puppet wriggling out in silhouette. But

907
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 3: of it kills them all. It kills Gregon Clark as well,

908
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 3: and eventually the cat gets outside and it runs out

909
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,000
Speaker 3: into the night. All right. So the next thing is

910
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 3: we're going to meet some of our main characters. This

911
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 3: time it is Bobby and Suzanne. These are our like

912
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 3: early twenties spring breakers in Florida looking for where the

913
00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 3: party's at. They're here to have a good time, but

914
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:49,040
Speaker 3: it seems like the problem is they don't have any

915
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,799
Speaker 3: money and they don't have any hotel reservations. So they're

916
00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 3: in town and they're just flying by the seat of

917
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 3: their bikinis trying to figure out what to do. So

918
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:59,480
Speaker 3: they like go into a fancy hotel lobby to hang out,

919
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 3: and then the main tries to kick them out because

920
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,520
Speaker 3: they're not staying at the hotel. But here in this

921
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:08,319
Speaker 3: fancy hotel they happened to meet wall Street Walter, the

922
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 3: rich sleeves bag and I would say, the human antagonist

923
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:15,200
Speaker 3: of the filmy, who offers to help them out. Why

924
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,160
Speaker 3: don't they just go join him for dinner?

925
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,320
Speaker 1: And yeah, and again they are just dressed in skimpy

926
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:24,720
Speaker 1: swimwear and shredded air brushed T shirts. At this point

927
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 1: it's not even clear from the context. No, they do

928
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:29,960
Speaker 1: have some luggage. They do have some luggage. I would

929
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:30,600
Speaker 1: have some bags.

930
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, but wall Street Walter tells them to leave the

931
00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:36,400
Speaker 3: bags in the lobby while they go go get dinner.

932
00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:41,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I love that he invites them in to

933
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 1: just dine with him at this fancy hotel with them

934
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:47,200
Speaker 1: just wearing their spring break get up and you know,

935
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:49,600
Speaker 1: walking past all the other swells. It just kind of

936
00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:51,440
Speaker 1: like give him a little side eye over this. So

937
00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 1: it's like he's a pig. Everyone knows he's a pig,

938
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:57,080
Speaker 1: and he seems really comfortable in that. He's like, yeah,

939
00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 1: I just grabbed a couple of young ladies, just you know, basic,

940
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:03,040
Speaker 1: off the beach, and I'm going to dine with them here.

941
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:06,719
Speaker 3: But I also like the kind of mental shortcuts this

942
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:10,760
Speaker 3: movie is making when it has characters arriving in town

943
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:14,920
Speaker 3: for spring break and they're wearing bathing suits, like seemingly

944
00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 3: for the travel to get there. It's not like they

945
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 3: would wear normal clothes to travel and then put on

946
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:21,960
Speaker 3: the bathing suits when they go down to the beach.

947
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:25,239
Speaker 1: Well, on the spring break bus just lets you out

948
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:26,880
Speaker 1: directly onto the beach, So you gotta be good, you

949
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 1: gotta be ready to go right right when it arrives.

950
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 3: So let's see the next scene is the part where

951
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,800
Speaker 3: George Kennedy include Gooliger show up in a chauffeured car,

952
00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:38,759
Speaker 3: and then I had to put in a screen shop

953
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:40,680
Speaker 3: for you to look at here, Rob, what is the

954
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:43,919
Speaker 3: deal with the guy who opens the car door for

955
00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 3: them at the hotel? I guess this is a footman

956
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:49,560
Speaker 3: or you know, a hotel worker of some companies, dressed

957
00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:51,040
Speaker 3: like Midwest Dracula.

958
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:53,960
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he's got the big top hat. I don't know.

959
00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 1: It definitely looked goofy, though maybe it's accurate. Maybe this

960
00:50:57,160 --> 00:51:00,160
Speaker 1: is exactly what was going on at fancy hotels in

961
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:01,040
Speaker 1: Florida at the time.

962
00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:04,919
Speaker 3: Fort Lauderdale Hotel dorman have like they wear a big

963
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:10,320
Speaker 3: red k in the top hat. Yeah. Anyway, these characters

964
00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 3: here are Mike and Albert. Mike and Albert head into

965
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,759
Speaker 3: the restaurant to meet with wall Street Walter, and they

966
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:19,080
Speaker 3: are annoyed that he is he is getting distracted from

967
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 3: their important crime business by trying to creep on these

968
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 3: two women. So Walter departs with his associates, but he

969
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:29,720
Speaker 3: invites Bobby and Suzanne to join him on his yacht

970
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,759
Speaker 3: for a party later on. So what's the business on

971
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:37,000
Speaker 3: the yacht? Well, our crime fraud exception trio here. They

972
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 3: they have to meet with some other business guy to

973
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:44,319
Speaker 3: do some shady deals. It's never really specified exactly what

974
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 3: they're doing, just general, you know, corrupt illegal business stuff.

975
00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, some sort of illegal money stuff.

976
00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:54,120
Speaker 3: Yeah. The guy they meet with, he's more or less like, hey,

977
00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,520
Speaker 3: I enjoy doing corrupt, illegal things with you, but now

978
00:51:57,560 --> 00:52:01,239
Speaker 3: I'm worried about the SEC. And they don't like the

979
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:03,799
Speaker 3: other guys don't like that this guy is worried about

980
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:06,400
Speaker 3: the SEC. He's like, what if they send me to jail?

981
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:09,520
Speaker 3: And the other guys are like, uh oh. So they

982
00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:12,720
Speaker 3: get suspicious of Frankie the squealer here, and they decide

983
00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:14,920
Speaker 3: that there's only one way to be sure that he

984
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:17,520
Speaker 3: never squeals. They've got to shut him up for good.

985
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:21,520
Speaker 3: And so Albert klue Googlger here, he holds the squeally

986
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:23,920
Speaker 3: guy down and drowns him in the hot tub on

987
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:25,040
Speaker 3: the yacht. Yeah.

988
00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:27,000
Speaker 1: But I mean, the thing that I was thinking is like,

989
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 1: they've got to use this hot tub later, like having

990
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,279
Speaker 1: a party. I've never owned a hot tub, but it's

991
00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:35,440
Speaker 1: my understanding that they're a little bit sensitive and you

992
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,359
Speaker 1: can set them off by doing normal things that don't

993
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:41,200
Speaker 1: involve murdering people in them. So I don't know, maybe

994
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:43,080
Speaker 1: they have some they have a really good handle on

995
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:43,879
Speaker 1: the chemicals. Here.

996
00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:47,840
Speaker 3: Also, after out he makes Albert murder this guy wall Street,

997
00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:50,359
Speaker 3: Walter is like, Albert, the party is in half an hour,

998
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:53,200
Speaker 3: So after you've cleaned up this mess here, get everything ready,

999
00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:56,480
Speaker 3: will you. It's like, wow, I really hope Albert washes

1000
00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:59,040
Speaker 3: his hands before he puts out the crew today. Yeah,

1001
00:52:59,280 --> 00:52:59,640
Speaker 3: this is.

1002
00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 1: Why you really need a larger criminal organization so that

1003
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,439
Speaker 1: you don't have goons that are having to to do

1004
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,680
Speaker 1: double duty both cleaning up your murders and also putting

1005
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:10,240
Speaker 1: out your food.

1006
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:13,160
Speaker 3: I was only hired to kill Frankie the squealer. I

1007
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 3: it was not in the job description to put out

1008
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:18,960
Speaker 3: party trays. Oh somewhere in here, there's also a random

1009
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:20,919
Speaker 3: scene just where we got a check in with the cat.

1010
00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:25,000
Speaker 3: See what the Cat's up to? So a guy robs

1011
00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:28,400
Speaker 3: a gas station attendant who the gas station attendant was

1012
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:30,919
Speaker 3: being nice to the cat thing. It was the guy

1013
00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:33,200
Speaker 3: was putting out a saucer of milk for cat thing.

1014
00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:36,560
Speaker 3: Cat thing was lapping it up. And while he's doing that,

1015
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 3: some dude runs up and like beats him up and

1016
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:42,040
Speaker 3: steals from the gas station register and drives away in

1017
00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:45,520
Speaker 3: a pickup truck, and cat Thing jumps into the truck

1018
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,640
Speaker 3: after the thief. It's like the vengeful poll of justice.

1019
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:52,279
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, yeah. At this point, really we have no

1020
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 1: reason to be against cat Thing. He seems to be

1021
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 1: following his own moral compass.

1022
00:53:57,800 --> 00:53:59,840
Speaker 3: So while the thieves are driving away, he's got in

1023
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:02,080
Speaker 3: a pompless too. The thieves are driving away, the cat

1024
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:05,520
Speaker 3: Thing pukes up itself and then attacks the driver through

1025
00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:09,400
Speaker 3: the back windscreen, causing the truck to crash. And this

1026
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:11,400
Speaker 3: was a laugh out loud scene for me because of

1027
00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 3: the sound effects in the truck scene. They had one

1028
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:19,120
Speaker 3: glass breaking sound effect, you know, like a crash tinkle tinkle,

1029
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 3: which they just played on a loop multiple times as

1030
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:25,439
Speaker 3: the cars the truck is rolling down a hill.

1031
00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:29,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, because otherwise it's very impressive looking wreck. Yeah yeah,

1032
00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:30,160
Speaker 1: roll this truck.

1033
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:42,040
Speaker 3: So now we're going to have our spring breakers combined.

1034
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:43,719
Speaker 3: We're getting to a scene that has some of the

1035
00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:47,400
Speaker 3: funniest dialogue developments I think in the movie. So there's

1036
00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:50,279
Speaker 3: like a scene at a restaurant patio overlooking a bunch

1037
00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:52,920
Speaker 3: of docks with boats tied up. Where we're going to

1038
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:56,520
Speaker 3: meet our boy spring Breakers. These are Lance and Corey

1039
00:54:56,560 --> 00:54:58,839
Speaker 3: and they're hanging out together at a table. Cory is,

1040
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 3: of course reading the Street Journal, and Corey says, Fort

1041
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:07,120
Speaker 3: Lauderdale at spring Break, no place like it? Agree, and

1042
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:11,640
Speaker 3: Lance says, no contest, haha, and they high five. They

1043
00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:13,960
Speaker 3: high five for that, and then Lance says, you know,

1044
00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:16,280
Speaker 3: let's go down to the beach and check out the action.

1045
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:20,000
Speaker 3: But Corey says, my friend, the beach is for riff raff.

1046
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:22,279
Speaker 3: You want to find a classy chick, you go to

1047
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 3: the marina. That's where the money is. Come on, everybody

1048
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:29,920
Speaker 3: knows that. And meanwhile Bobby and Suzanne are wandering up.

1049
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:32,480
Speaker 3: I guess they already went to the yacht party the

1050
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:34,239
Speaker 3: night before, but we never see that.

1051
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:38,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, scene missing on the party. We'll see the aftermath

1052
00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:40,560
Speaker 1: of the party later. But it was a big bass.

1053
00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:43,239
Speaker 1: It seems like it just consisted of them going out

1054
00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:47,920
Speaker 1: drinking and dancing while I guess Walter and maybe his

1055
00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:49,319
Speaker 1: men like watch.

1056
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:50,880
Speaker 3: On unclear, yeah, unclear.

1057
00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1058
00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:53,480
Speaker 3: So the ladies walk up to the boy's table and

1059
00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:55,320
Speaker 3: they ask if they can sit down and the spring

1060
00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:58,880
Speaker 3: Breaker boys are thrilled, but then uh oh, here comes

1061
00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:01,759
Speaker 3: the drag. Their friend Martin comes to join the four

1062
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:05,960
Speaker 3: of them, and Martin is the biology major. He's like, hey, guys, yeah,

1063
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:08,560
Speaker 3: I can't find any place to stay. The whole town's booked.

1064
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:12,080
Speaker 3: And Corey's like, not now Hedgeworth. I guess that's Martin's

1065
00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:15,880
Speaker 3: last name, not now Hedgeworth. We're busy. So his friends

1066
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:18,360
Speaker 3: here think this guy is a real loser. But why'd

1067
00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:19,000
Speaker 3: they go with him?

1068
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:21,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, this isn't one of those classic why are these

1069
00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:22,440
Speaker 1: people friends moments?

1070
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:28,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly, the jock, the Wall Street journal guy,

1071
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,759
Speaker 3: and the biology major who only two of them seem

1072
00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:35,360
Speaker 3: to like each other. Yeah, but anyway, after this, okay,

1073
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:39,240
Speaker 3: so literally I've told you everything that has transpired between

1074
00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:41,400
Speaker 3: these people, so I didn't leave anything out yet. So

1075
00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:45,319
Speaker 3: the girls they sat down. The boys are like, hey,

1076
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 3: this other guy is sitting with us. They have not

1077
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:51,360
Speaker 3: introduced themselves to each other, they've not traded names or

1078
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:54,719
Speaker 3: anything yet. Just the ladies arrive at the table, they

1079
00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:56,920
Speaker 3: ask if they can sit down. They sit down, and

1080
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:59,800
Speaker 3: then Bobby says, last night we met this guy, Walter.

1081
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:04,200
Speaker 3: He's got this great yacht, and then Corey says, wait,

1082
00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:07,680
Speaker 3: are you talking about Wall Street Walter. I mean, this

1083
00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:11,439
Speaker 3: guy is the best arbitrageur in the world. I mean

1084
00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:15,359
Speaker 3: he's made million He's made more millions than anybody. And

1085
00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:18,080
Speaker 3: then Suzanne says, must be the same guy. You should

1086
00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:21,520
Speaker 3: see his boat. Bobby says, well, anyway, we're supposed to

1087
00:57:21,600 --> 00:57:24,400
Speaker 3: set sail this morning on a cruise for the Caribbean,

1088
00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:27,600
Speaker 3: be gone a couple of days, maybe more. Why don't

1089
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:31,439
Speaker 3: you guys come with us. They have not traded names yet,

1090
00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 3: they said. They just sat down at the table.

1091
00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:36,720
Speaker 1: And they're just like, hey, we're going out to sea

1092
00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:39,000
Speaker 1: with this guy, who you know up clearly doesn't have

1093
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 1: any ulterior motives, so come along with us. He'll surely

1094
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:46,880
Speaker 1: totally accept just three additional random dudes coming as well.

1095
00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 3: Well. Suzanne introduces a logic here though, So clearly Bobby

1096
00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:53,080
Speaker 3: and Suzanne are interested in this guy because he's rich,

1097
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:55,320
Speaker 3: he's got a yacht, he can take them on a vacation.

1098
00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:58,520
Speaker 3: But they're also not sure about him, so they are

1099
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:01,840
Speaker 3: recruiting some help here from these guys. Susan says, you

1100
00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:04,360
Speaker 3: can help us handle this guy if he gets out

1101
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:07,080
Speaker 3: of hand. But then I was like, but why would

1102
00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:09,320
Speaker 3: they have any more reason to trust these guys than

1103
00:58:09,360 --> 00:58:12,600
Speaker 3: Wall Street? They just met it, They just met them. Yeah,

1104
00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 3: but Bobby says, besides, I hear the Caribbean's perfect this

1105
00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 3: time of year for swimming in the raw, and she's

1106
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:23,200
Speaker 3: grabbing Lance's leg though she does not know his name

1107
00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 3: is Lance.

1108
00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:26,560
Speaker 1: I guess is that what they call it swimming in

1109
00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:26,960
Speaker 1: the raw?

1110
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 3: I think that means skinny dipping. Yeah, so obviously Bobby

1111
00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:33,200
Speaker 3: is interested in swimming in the raw with Lance, and

1112
00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:38,680
Speaker 3: he's like, oh yo, and Corey dreamily. You know, he's

1113
00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:40,840
Speaker 3: got Wall Street journals in his eyes, and he goes,

1114
00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:45,680
Speaker 3: I am really going to meet Walter Graham. So our

1115
00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:48,760
Speaker 3: spring Breakers make their way out to the yacht. On

1116
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:52,160
Speaker 3: the way, they hear some meowing coming from inside this

1117
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:55,400
Speaker 3: big storage bin on the docks. They go over and

1118
00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:58,240
Speaker 3: open it up and there's the cat. Yeah, yeahs in

1119
00:58:58,280 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 3: this box.

1120
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:03,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. We didn't get every leg of cat thing's incredible journey,

1121
00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:06,800
Speaker 1: but it managed to wind up here just as this

1122
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:08,280
Speaker 1: crew is about to board the yacht.

1123
00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 3: Oh wait, but there is a thing I forgot to

1124
00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 3: mention from earlier when the cat was watching Wall Street

1125
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:17,280
Speaker 3: Walter's limo pull away from the hotel almost like it

1126
00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:20,080
Speaker 3: was scoping him out. Hmmm you remember that?

1127
00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:21,720
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, why though?

1128
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:25,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's well, so we've established that the cat Thing

1129
00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 3: not always, but usually attacks people who are sinful, and

1130
00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:35,240
Speaker 3: so because Wall Street Walter is a particularly awful and

1131
00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:38,920
Speaker 3: odious human being, maybe it's like drawn to him like

1132
00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:41,520
Speaker 3: a magnet. So that's why it's watching his car and

1133
00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:43,640
Speaker 3: also how it ends up on the dock beside his

1134
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:45,360
Speaker 3: yacht hmmm yeah.

1135
00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:47,400
Speaker 1: Or maybe he knows even more, Maybe he knows that

1136
00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:52,680
Speaker 1: Wall Street Walter is a majority stakeholder in the pharmaceutical

1137
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:56,840
Speaker 1: corporation that created cat Thing for once to destroy him.

1138
00:59:57,120 --> 00:59:58,320
Speaker 3: That's a good theory.

1139
00:59:59,120 --> 01:00:02,800
Speaker 1: I'm basing it absolutely nothing, but that's what I'm pulling

1140
01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:03,240
Speaker 1: out here.

1141
01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:04,920
Speaker 3: Well, wait a minute, this is a time for a

1142
01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:09,520
Speaker 3: good sidebar. Actually, what do you think is the intelligence

1143
01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:14,560
Speaker 3: level or sentience of the cat Thing? There are many

1144
01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:18,360
Speaker 3: things it does throughout the movie that almost feel strategic,

1145
01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:21,840
Speaker 3: but the way they're filmed it never makes it really clear.

1146
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:26,160
Speaker 3: Like at one point, the cat Thing sabotages the boat engine,

1147
01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:29,240
Speaker 3: but it makes it look like that could be an accident,

1148
01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:33,200
Speaker 3: Like the boat just kind of it shakes because somebody

1149
01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:36,160
Speaker 3: shakes the wheel, and then it kind of raw like

1150
01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:38,680
Speaker 3: jumps out of the cat's mouth and scratches a wire,

1151
01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:41,800
Speaker 3: and then the engine is sabotaged, and there's other stuff

1152
01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:44,400
Speaker 3: like that, but it's never quite clear.

1153
01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:48,480
Speaker 1: Well, my answer, which is also going to be a

1154
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:52,800
Speaker 1: little vague, is that it clearly has Grimlin level intelligence,

1155
01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:55,920
Speaker 1: so it can do things that are smart and clever,

1156
01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:58,640
Speaker 1: but it will also do things that are sneaky, even

1157
01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:03,040
Speaker 1: if they're stupid. It's just it's just straight up Grimlin

1158
01:01:03,120 --> 01:01:06,800
Speaker 1: level intelligence, like standard Grimlin, not brainy Grimlin from Grimlin's too,

1159
01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:08,760
Speaker 1: but just like standard Grimlin intelligence.

1160
01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:11,360
Speaker 3: Maybe this actually comes back to they all share one

1161
01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:13,760
Speaker 3: brain cell between them, and then the cat thing is

1162
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:18,040
Speaker 3: in possession of the of the universal orange tabby brain cell.

1163
01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:21,360
Speaker 3: Then it quickly becomes syentient and it can strategize like this,

1164
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:22,800
Speaker 3: but then it again disappears.

1165
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:24,880
Speaker 1: There you go again. The memes tell us this, so

1166
01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:25,680
Speaker 1: it must be true.

1167
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:28,760
Speaker 3: So our spring breakers they pull the cat out of

1168
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:32,040
Speaker 3: the box. Martin removes a collar from its neck that

1169
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,640
Speaker 3: says genetic laboratory, and he reasons from this that it

1170
01:01:35,680 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 3: may have come from a genetic laboratory. Then Suzanne falls

1171
01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:42,280
Speaker 3: in love with the kitty cat. She's hugging it, and

1172
01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:44,080
Speaker 3: she insists they've got to bring it with them on

1173
01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:46,919
Speaker 3: the boat. But like, what if this is somebody's cat.

1174
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 3: I don't know, I mean, I guess the collar makes

1175
01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:53,360
Speaker 3: it look like it's a lab animal, but still, so, yeah,

1176
01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:55,640
Speaker 3: they just bring it on the boat. Oh, and there's

1177
01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:58,120
Speaker 3: a funny thing here where at first Lance the jock

1178
01:01:58,240 --> 01:02:01,080
Speaker 3: is really worried about getting c set seasick, and then

1179
01:02:01,080 --> 01:02:04,360
Speaker 3: about four seconds after he steps onto a boat, he

1180
01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:05,920
Speaker 3: vomits a bunch of mellow.

1181
01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:08,120
Speaker 1: Yellow Yeah, almost immediate barf gag.

1182
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:13,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's translucent yellow liquid. So oh, next thing is

1183
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,959
Speaker 3: we meet are the main last character we haven't met yet,

1184
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:19,720
Speaker 3: Captain Rachel. We're on the yacht and there's a scene

1185
01:02:19,760 --> 01:02:23,880
Speaker 3: where Captain Rachel is arguing with wall Street Walter. Walter

1186
01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:26,440
Speaker 3: wants them to leave immediately. There's kind of a sense

1187
01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:28,600
Speaker 3: that the law could be closing in on him soon,

1188
01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:32,880
Speaker 3: but she doesn't know that, and she protests. She's like, well,

1189
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:34,959
Speaker 3: we don't have any crew right now. I'm the only

1190
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:37,400
Speaker 3: one here. And the reason they don't have any crew

1191
01:02:37,520 --> 01:02:41,120
Speaker 3: is that Walter harshly insulted and mistreated the previous crew,

1192
01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:44,080
Speaker 3: so they all quit and then Walter is like, come on,

1193
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 3: you know, come on, I yeah, just you can do it.

1194
01:02:49,120 --> 01:02:52,520
Speaker 1: And so this is why he is cool with these

1195
01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:55,000
Speaker 1: guys coming on board, because they're going to serve as

1196
01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:59,200
Speaker 1: the crew as they make their escape fleeing the SEC

1197
01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:00,800
Speaker 1: on their way to the they went down on their

1198
01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:01,880
Speaker 1: way to the Cayman Islands.

1199
01:03:01,920 --> 01:03:06,960
Speaker 3: That's right. So Rachel is sort of stuck here in

1200
01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:10,480
Speaker 3: the in the boat captaining situation, because do tell me

1201
01:03:10,520 --> 01:03:12,800
Speaker 3: if I'm getting some details wrong here. I think the

1202
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,560
Speaker 3: way they explain it is it used to be her

1203
01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:19,560
Speaker 3: father's boat, but her father got in debt or something

1204
01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:23,360
Speaker 3: and lost the boat and then he died and she

1205
01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:26,480
Speaker 3: is now working as captain of this boat until she

1206
01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:29,640
Speaker 3: can buy the boat back from wall Street. Walter Is

1207
01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:32,320
Speaker 3: that basically how I understood it. Yeah, and he like

1208
01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:36,160
Speaker 3: wall Street, Walter insults her. She clearly hates Walter, but

1209
01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:38,240
Speaker 3: she's kind of being a team player for now so

1210
01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:40,760
Speaker 3: that she can achieve her own boat related goals.

1211
01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:41,520
Speaker 1: That's right.

1212
01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:45,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, so our spring breakers arrive, Walter is like, oh,

1213
01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:47,440
Speaker 3: I didn't tell you could bring a bunch of random

1214
01:03:47,480 --> 01:03:50,800
Speaker 3: boyfriends you just met at the marina. So he's trying

1215
01:03:50,840 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 3: to send the boys back to shore. But while they're

1216
01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:56,120
Speaker 3: in the middle of this, klue Gooliger arrives with news

1217
01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:58,920
Speaker 3: that the SEC is looking for Walter. They want to

1218
01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:01,760
Speaker 3: search his boat. So this light's a fire under Walter

1219
01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:03,800
Speaker 3: and it's like, we got to go now, and Bobby

1220
01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:06,320
Speaker 3: convinces Walter that, yeah, like you mentioned, they can let

1221
01:04:06,360 --> 01:04:09,360
Speaker 3: their new boyfriends stay on board so they can serve

1222
01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:11,360
Speaker 3: as the boat's crew. Genius.

1223
01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:15,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a fun plot hook, you know. I could

1224
01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:18,000
Speaker 1: see this working in a Dungeons and Dragons campaign easily.

1225
01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:20,880
Speaker 3: So it's anchors away, and of course the cat is

1226
01:04:20,920 --> 01:04:23,360
Speaker 3: coming along. Walter also does not want to take the

1227
01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:26,040
Speaker 3: cat with him, but Suzanne is like, but he's so cute.

1228
01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:27,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they're like, it's good luck to have a

1229
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:30,480
Speaker 1: cat on board, which that's right. Yeah.

1230
01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:32,720
Speaker 3: So this is basically the end of the first act.

1231
01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:34,919
Speaker 3: The pieces are all in place, and for the rest

1232
01:04:34,920 --> 01:04:37,960
Speaker 3: of the movie, the cat will begin to gradually pick

1233
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:41,680
Speaker 3: off the characters on the boat while the humans try

1234
01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:45,160
Speaker 3: to figure out what's going on and react. So maybe

1235
01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:48,680
Speaker 3: we'll now go a little bit less chronological and just

1236
01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:52,280
Speaker 3: pick some scenes to focus on. The first night there

1237
01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:55,240
Speaker 3: on the boat is kind of party night, where everybody's

1238
01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:58,920
Speaker 3: drinking and dancing, and there's a scene where everybody's gathered

1239
01:04:58,920 --> 01:05:02,240
Speaker 3: around while wall Street Walter regales the group with wonderful

1240
01:05:02,320 --> 01:05:05,040
Speaker 3: stories about times that he was great at doing deals

1241
01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:08,480
Speaker 3: and about times that he really showed somebody else whose boss.

1242
01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:11,040
Speaker 3: He's eating a banana throughout this, by the way, and

1243
01:05:11,120 --> 01:05:14,080
Speaker 3: Corey just adores him. He's like, wow, wall Street Walter

1244
01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:18,720
Speaker 3: tell us another Meanwhile, off to the side, Rachel and Martin,

1245
01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:23,040
Speaker 3: the two basically good characters, are playing backgammon, and they're

1246
01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:26,400
Speaker 3: quietly getting to know each other, and you know, they're

1247
01:05:26,640 --> 01:05:30,240
Speaker 3: talking about their backstories, and Suzanne is cuddling the cat, which,

1248
01:05:30,320 --> 01:05:34,520
Speaker 3: by the way, we have already seen vomit itself and

1249
01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:38,760
Speaker 3: sabotaged the engine earlier than this. That happened at some point,

1250
01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:42,400
Speaker 3: and wall Street Walter drunkenly comes over to insult both

1251
01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:45,920
Speaker 3: Rachel and Martin, and you know, Rachel just kind of

1252
01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:49,200
Speaker 3: tells him off. But there's also a dancing scene here

1253
01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:52,200
Speaker 3: that reminds me almost to Friday the Thirteenth, Part four,

1254
01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:56,360
Speaker 3: with Crispin Glover dancing. The dancing itself is nowhere near

1255
01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:59,560
Speaker 3: as weird as Crispin Glover's dance, but the framing and

1256
01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:01,640
Speaker 3: the feel of the scene is quite similar.

1257
01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:06,560
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, this is completely unbelievable, Like what is dancing?

1258
01:06:06,720 --> 01:06:06,800
Speaker 2: Like?

1259
01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:10,080
Speaker 1: What do people do when they hang out? Let's try

1260
01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:12,480
Speaker 1: and create it here for the camera.

1261
01:06:12,920 --> 01:06:16,040
Speaker 3: So let's talk about the death of Albert, the clue

1262
01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:20,040
Speaker 3: Goolager character. So Albert is supposed to be steering the boat.

1263
01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:24,160
Speaker 3: Rachel gives him instructions and leaves him there. But Albert, well,

1264
01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:26,120
Speaker 3: he's steering the boat. I think he gets bored, and

1265
01:06:26,160 --> 01:06:28,080
Speaker 3: so he gets a bottle of wine out of a

1266
01:06:28,120 --> 01:06:32,600
Speaker 3: cabinet and he's supposed to be driving, but he's getting drunk.

1267
01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:35,200
Speaker 3: He's talking to himself a lot. He's like, oh, Albert,

1268
01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:38,000
Speaker 3: you're the captain now. Huh, you're the captain now. And

1269
01:06:38,120 --> 01:06:41,240
Speaker 3: he's also singing the Battle Hymn of the Republic. But

1270
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:44,200
Speaker 3: why why that? Maybe because it was public domain they

1271
01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:46,680
Speaker 3: can't think of anything else. Yeah, I don't know.

1272
01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:48,960
Speaker 1: I got the sense that the old clue here is

1273
01:06:49,040 --> 01:06:52,400
Speaker 1: just hamming it up as much as possible before his

1274
01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:53,280
Speaker 1: inevitable death.

1275
01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:56,880
Speaker 3: Scene just having a belt of wine and singing Twinkle Twinkle,

1276
01:06:56,960 --> 01:07:01,959
Speaker 3: Little Star. Then Rachel comes in and relieves him after

1277
01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:04,760
Speaker 3: realizing that he has steered them far off course, He's like,

1278
01:07:04,840 --> 01:07:08,520
Speaker 3: get out of here. So klue Googliger goes out wandering

1279
01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:10,720
Speaker 3: around on the ship and he I think he's looking

1280
01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:12,960
Speaker 3: for a storage box that has more booze in it.

1281
01:07:13,400 --> 01:07:15,520
Speaker 3: He opens one up and the cat's in the box.

1282
01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:17,800
Speaker 3: He's like, hey, cat, get out of the way, that's

1283
01:07:17,840 --> 01:07:20,600
Speaker 3: my wine. It gets the wine out and then he

1284
01:07:20,840 --> 01:07:23,320
Speaker 3: uncorks it and has a bunch and spits it on

1285
01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:23,800
Speaker 3: the cat.

1286
01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:26,200
Speaker 1: Oh wow, that was a mistake.

1287
01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:29,040
Speaker 3: Kitty cat doesn't like that. Kitty cat does not like

1288
01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:32,320
Speaker 3: that at all. And then we get the vomit self

1289
01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:36,640
Speaker 3: up vomit self up reaction and it attacks klue Gooliger

1290
01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:39,440
Speaker 3: and what a weird attack. So it goes for the

1291
01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:42,840
Speaker 3: throat and there's blood everywhere. But after the attack, we

1292
01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:47,960
Speaker 3: see klue Gooliger's neck like his veins throbbing under his

1293
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:52,160
Speaker 3: skin in this makeup effect, and I was like, WHOA,

1294
01:07:52,240 --> 01:07:54,920
Speaker 3: what's happening here? We were about to get some kind

1295
01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:56,040
Speaker 3: of transformation.

1296
01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:59,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, same, I was like, he is about to mutate

1297
01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:01,920
Speaker 1: into some sort of abomination, and now we're gonna have

1298
01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:04,880
Speaker 1: like zombies on board and a killer cat or is

1299
01:08:04,920 --> 01:08:06,600
Speaker 1: he going to turn into some sort of like wear

1300
01:08:06,720 --> 01:08:10,080
Speaker 1: cat thing or something. But as we'll find out, this

1301
01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:12,560
Speaker 1: is just the cat thing, then I'm doing its work.

1302
01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:16,519
Speaker 1: It's like a high speed, lethal cat scratch fever that

1303
01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:19,280
Speaker 1: drives you mad with pain and then the only solution

1304
01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:21,639
Speaker 1: to your pain is to leap into the sea and die.

1305
01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:25,400
Speaker 3: That's right. So unfortunately klue Googliger does not turn into

1306
01:08:25,439 --> 01:08:28,440
Speaker 3: a cat person. Instead, it's just like his veins explode

1307
01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:30,480
Speaker 3: and he falls into the water splash.

1308
01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:30,920
Speaker 1: Yep.

1309
01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:34,280
Speaker 3: Now, in the aftermath of this, Mike and wall Street

1310
01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:37,520
Speaker 3: Walter find the blood everywhere, but they cover up Albert's

1311
01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:39,360
Speaker 3: death because Walter just wants to get back to the

1312
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:41,439
Speaker 3: party and he's like, oh, we don't have time for this.

1313
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:45,320
Speaker 3: It will sort this out after we're free. And then

1314
01:08:45,640 --> 01:08:48,720
Speaker 3: the next day Mike and Walter act all surprised when

1315
01:08:48,760 --> 01:08:52,840
Speaker 3: it's discovered that Albert is missing and there's blood everywhere. Also,

1316
01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:55,720
Speaker 3: by this point, the ship's engine is fully malfunctioning due

1317
01:08:55,760 --> 01:08:59,920
Speaker 3: to the cat things sabotage, and wall Street Walter convinced

1318
01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:03,120
Speaker 3: Rachel to keep sailing ahead instead of turning back to

1319
01:09:03,160 --> 01:09:06,160
Speaker 3: look for Albert. I was just trying to remember. How

1320
01:09:06,200 --> 01:09:08,599
Speaker 3: does he convince her? I think it's just more boat

1321
01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:10,400
Speaker 3: related lever boat ownership.

1322
01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:13,040
Speaker 1: He's kind of like, like, you get us to the Caymans,

1323
01:09:13,120 --> 01:09:14,880
Speaker 1: I'm going to have so much money, I can just

1324
01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:18,120
Speaker 1: basically sign this boat over to you. And you know,

1325
01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:21,160
Speaker 1: if she she knows that this isn't right. I mean,

1326
01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:23,800
Speaker 1: Albert is missing and they should turn back and look

1327
01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:28,960
Speaker 1: for him. But she she she is, you know, seduced

1328
01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:32,720
Speaker 1: by money here and by by the boat ownership. So

1329
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:35,479
Speaker 1: Walter is able to sway her to his side, and

1330
01:09:35,479 --> 01:09:36,679
Speaker 1: she's like, all right, we'll keep going.

1331
01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:39,960
Speaker 3: They also, I just remember this. They also convince her

1332
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:43,679
Speaker 3: by lying and say that saying that Albert couldn't swim,

1333
01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:45,960
Speaker 3: so there is zero chance that he's still alive.

1334
01:09:46,439 --> 01:09:50,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, So she she factors that into it and still

1335
01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:54,000
Speaker 1: sides with money over over going back and looking for him.

1336
01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:58,519
Speaker 3: But Martin and Rachel are more inquisitive about what's going

1337
01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:02,240
Speaker 3: on here. So Martin takes a sample of the blood

1338
01:10:02,240 --> 01:10:05,320
Speaker 3: they find on the deck and he examines it with

1339
01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:10,479
Speaker 3: what equipment A sextant, a sextant, you know, for navigation.

1340
01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:14,520
Speaker 3: He uses like a lens on the sextant in combination

1341
01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:17,760
Speaker 3: with a magnifying glass to look at the blood and

1342
01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:20,920
Speaker 3: he's like, my god, this blood is at least five

1343
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:23,639
Speaker 3: hundred times more bloody than any blood I've ever seen.

1344
01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:27,760
Speaker 3: It could only be a mutation. And she's like what,

1345
01:10:28,080 --> 01:10:30,800
Speaker 3: but you're a biology major and he's like, no, I know,

1346
01:10:30,920 --> 01:10:34,000
Speaker 3: I've never seen any mutated blood as mutated as this.

1347
01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:47,799
Speaker 3: So some weird doings are afoot. So next seeing things

1348
01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:51,160
Speaker 3: on board start getting more violent between the people on

1349
01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:54,240
Speaker 3: the ship. So there's a scene where wall Street Walter

1350
01:10:54,600 --> 01:10:58,200
Speaker 3: is creeping on Bobby while she's doing aerobics, and then

1351
01:10:58,280 --> 01:11:00,720
Speaker 3: he gets creepier and creepier until it seems that he

1352
01:11:00,840 --> 01:11:03,960
Speaker 3: is about to rape her, but then Lance shows up

1353
01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:07,720
Speaker 3: and beats him up, but unfortunately, then Mike shows up

1354
01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:11,479
Speaker 3: and shoots Lance in the arm. So now things have

1355
01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:14,680
Speaker 3: sort of openly turned hostile between the corporate creeps and

1356
01:11:14,720 --> 01:11:18,280
Speaker 3: the spring Breakers, and Mike has all the spring Breakers

1357
01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:21,240
Speaker 3: at gunpoint, but there is a cat attack while he's

1358
01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:23,479
Speaker 3: like standing there with the gun pointed at them. The

1359
01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:27,320
Speaker 3: cat bites Mike on the leg. This is George Kennedy

1360
01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:30,519
Speaker 3: bites him on the bites dragline on the leg in

1361
01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:32,960
Speaker 3: a way that it looks like it nearly bites his

1362
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:35,680
Speaker 3: leg off at first. Yeah, not quite, but it's like

1363
01:11:35,800 --> 01:11:38,120
Speaker 3: digging in there, and they're later talking about it like, wow,

1364
01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:39,479
Speaker 3: it bit right through his shoe.

1365
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:42,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, so set Yes, sever's right through the achilles tendon.

1366
01:11:42,920 --> 01:11:46,559
Speaker 1: There's a lot of screaming. Yeah, he's hitting the floor.

1367
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:49,920
Speaker 1: And now, at first what I was watching is I

1368
01:11:49,960 --> 01:11:52,679
Speaker 1: couldn't tell if the other characters were supposed to see

1369
01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:54,360
Speaker 1: that kat thing did it, because cat thing kind of

1370
01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:58,200
Speaker 1: comes out underneath the furniture and attacks, which I have

1371
01:11:58,240 --> 01:12:01,400
Speaker 1: to say this is this is very unbrand for.

1372
01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:03,439
Speaker 3: A household, reaching out from under furniture.

1373
01:12:03,479 --> 01:12:06,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, reaching out from underneath something and attacking the feet.

1374
01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:09,920
Speaker 1: My feet are attacked on a near daily basis by

1375
01:12:09,960 --> 01:12:14,000
Speaker 1: my own cat, but never gets me quite this hard.

1376
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:18,040
Speaker 1: There's never splurting blood and screaming. And of course my cat,

1377
01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:22,320
Speaker 1: not being a mutant, also doesn't have venom that makes

1378
01:12:22,360 --> 01:12:23,439
Speaker 1: my veins explode.

1379
01:12:23,520 --> 01:12:26,200
Speaker 3: That's right. So what happens here is the bite seems

1380
01:12:26,200 --> 01:12:28,280
Speaker 3: a lot worse than a cat bite could normally be

1381
01:12:28,640 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 3: for some reason. They're I mean, I guess it's just

1382
01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:34,679
Speaker 3: duty to treat whoever. But they're trying to help out

1383
01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:37,520
Speaker 3: Mike after he was just pointing a gun at them,

1384
01:12:37,720 --> 01:12:41,479
Speaker 3: and they're like, what's going on Mike, And he's like, well,

1385
01:12:41,520 --> 01:12:45,200
Speaker 3: you know, I've been bitten by a mutated cat. So

1386
01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:48,120
Speaker 3: all this venom is coursing through his veins, and his

1387
01:12:48,600 --> 01:12:51,640
Speaker 3: veins are sort of popping up under the scan and exploding,

1388
01:12:52,240 --> 01:12:56,120
Speaker 3: and Martin is explaining like, wow, the blood was mutating

1389
01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:59,160
Speaker 3: like nothing I've ever seen before, and it makes Mike's

1390
01:12:59,479 --> 01:13:02,200
Speaker 3: arteries explode and he dies. For a minute, it looks

1391
01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:04,599
Speaker 3: like he's gonna go full cane and alien. I think,

1392
01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:07,719
Speaker 3: like something pops up out of his gut like a head,

1393
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:10,040
Speaker 3: but then it doesn't. Nothing emerges.

1394
01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:13,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought, again, this is gonna be another cat

1395
01:13:13,120 --> 01:13:16,639
Speaker 1: thing bursting out of George Kennedy's chest, but it doesn't happen.

1396
01:13:16,800 --> 01:13:19,200
Speaker 3: I think that was just another vain explore. Maybe that

1397
01:13:19,280 --> 01:13:23,720
Speaker 3: was his heart exploding or something, I guess. So at

1398
01:13:23,760 --> 01:13:26,920
Speaker 3: this point, Rachel and Suzanne try to go radio for help,

1399
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:29,920
Speaker 3: but wall Street Walter pulls a quint in Jaws here

1400
01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:32,880
Speaker 3: he shoots the communications equipment, and he's like, you won't

1401
01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:36,160
Speaker 3: be getting in touch with anybody. But fortunately Rachel and

1402
01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:38,519
Speaker 3: Suzanne get the upper hand. They like blast him with

1403
01:13:39,040 --> 01:13:41,439
Speaker 3: a fire extinguisher and they get control of the gun

1404
01:13:41,560 --> 01:13:45,639
Speaker 3: and subdue Walter. So after this, the spring Breakers take charge.

1405
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:47,360
Speaker 3: Now they are in control of the vessel.

1406
01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:50,760
Speaker 1: That's right, Walter is captive and they've just got to

1407
01:13:50,800 --> 01:13:52,839
Speaker 1: sceer this ship to safety in justice.

1408
01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:55,960
Speaker 3: Now, what other scenes should be mentioned? As things things

1409
01:13:56,000 --> 01:13:59,000
Speaker 3: go on, the cat will continue to attack various members

1410
01:13:59,120 --> 01:14:02,120
Speaker 3: of the going to say the crew people on board

1411
01:14:02,160 --> 01:14:06,600
Speaker 3: the ship. Here, there's one weird subplot where the cat

1412
01:14:06,840 --> 01:14:11,280
Speaker 3: infects all of the food on the yacht with cat

1413
01:14:11,479 --> 01:14:15,000
Speaker 3: with like vein explosion venom. Yeah, and this kind of

1414
01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:17,800
Speaker 3: reminded me of the like the scenes in The Thing

1415
01:14:17,960 --> 01:14:20,599
Speaker 3: where like the thing is getting to the blood to

1416
01:14:20,640 --> 01:14:22,880
Speaker 3: taint all the blood so they can't test for it.

1417
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:26,559
Speaker 1: Mm yeah yeah. And I think there was a scene

1418
01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:29,040
Speaker 1: an Alien where the xenomorph gets into their food. Maybe

1419
01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:32,679
Speaker 1: it was a deleted scene, but it's one that I've

1420
01:14:32,720 --> 01:14:36,120
Speaker 1: seen mentioned time and time again when when fans are

1421
01:14:36,439 --> 01:14:39,599
Speaker 1: debating how quickly a xenomorph grows and what it may

1422
01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:41,400
Speaker 1: or may not have to eat to get to that point.

1423
01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:45,240
Speaker 3: There's one scene eventually that was an amazing, like laugh

1424
01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:48,559
Speaker 3: out loud moment, and it's the it's the Lance make

1425
01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:50,320
Speaker 3: out arm scare scene.

1426
01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:53,120
Speaker 1: Yes, oh god, this is so good. This is a

1427
01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:56,160
Speaker 1: scene that, as we describe it here, it may sound

1428
01:14:56,280 --> 01:15:01,360
Speaker 1: grotesque and and and I would say bad taste maybe

1429
01:15:01,400 --> 01:15:03,680
Speaker 1: with a with a with a touch of cruelty to it,

1430
01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:07,479
Speaker 1: but the way, but that's just not the nature of

1431
01:15:07,520 --> 01:15:10,160
Speaker 1: this film, Like it ends up just being laugh out loud,

1432
01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:12,360
Speaker 1: funny and just so over the top ridiculous.

1433
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:16,640
Speaker 3: So what happened, Like Lance and Bobby are making Lance.

1434
01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:19,120
Speaker 1: Was the one who was shot by Mike. So he's,

1435
01:15:19,200 --> 01:15:22,920
Speaker 1: you know, he's still recovering. He's he's maybe recovering from

1436
01:15:22,960 --> 01:15:25,799
Speaker 1: that that gunshot wound. He's in bed, he's in bad place.

1437
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:28,599
Speaker 3: They're kissing and he's like, I can't feel anything in my.

1438
01:15:28,640 --> 01:15:31,559
Speaker 1: Arms, Like my arm's really numb. And so she moves

1439
01:15:31,600 --> 01:15:34,720
Speaker 1: a towel off of the hand of that arm, and

1440
01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:37,200
Speaker 1: then we see that cat thing is just munching on

1441
01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,240
Speaker 1: his fingers, that's like munched all his fingers off, and

1442
01:15:40,280 --> 01:15:45,080
Speaker 1: there's just blood everywhere and of course, Lance screams, and

1443
01:15:45,080 --> 01:15:47,200
Speaker 1: and from there, I mean again, this is a very

1444
01:15:47,240 --> 01:15:51,960
Speaker 1: fast acting mutant cat thing venom. Lance very quickly like

1445
01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:55,040
Speaker 1: loses his mind and is convinced that his only hope

1446
01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:57,040
Speaker 1: is to jump off the ship to his death.

1447
01:15:57,360 --> 01:15:58,760
Speaker 3: And I think Bobby goes with him.

1448
01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:01,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, Bobby's like no, and then goes with him. And

1449
01:16:01,120 --> 01:16:02,439
Speaker 1: then she's dead too, So.

1450
01:16:02,320 --> 01:16:04,599
Speaker 3: That's the end of them. There.

1451
01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:06,800
Speaker 1: Should note that, you know, the girls were nice to

1452
01:16:06,920 --> 01:16:10,920
Speaker 1: cat thing, and so far cat Thing has not directly

1453
01:16:11,400 --> 01:16:13,040
Speaker 1: attacked either of the girls.

1454
01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:15,519
Speaker 3: That's right. It has only bitten the boys. Yeah, the

1455
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:18,200
Speaker 3: corporate creeps and the boys. Yeah. Though I will say

1456
01:16:18,280 --> 01:16:21,400
Speaker 3: to comment on whether the cat punishes immorality or not,

1457
01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:24,320
Speaker 3: Lance has been a little bit mean to the cat.

1458
01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:27,000
Speaker 3: But Lance actually hasn't been that bad in terms of

1459
01:16:27,080 --> 01:16:31,439
Speaker 3: human behavior. You can imagine a Jock in the spring

1460
01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:34,519
Speaker 3: Break movie being a much more terrible and obnoxious character.

1461
01:16:34,600 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 3: He's just a little bit annoying to the other humans.

1462
01:16:37,120 --> 01:16:39,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good point. That's a good point. Now,

1463
01:16:39,360 --> 01:16:40,880
Speaker 1: in the in the midst of all of this, what

1464
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:44,960
Speaker 1: we also have Corey, the preppy character he like is

1465
01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:47,360
Speaker 1: he's running a side deal with Walter there's like a

1466
01:16:47,400 --> 01:16:51,280
Speaker 1: scene where Walter the prisoner now kind of seduces Corey

1467
01:16:51,320 --> 01:16:53,679
Speaker 1: back over to his side, let me show you something

1468
01:16:53,760 --> 01:16:56,160
Speaker 1: like that, but I don't remember the details of their deal.

1469
01:16:56,439 --> 01:16:59,439
Speaker 3: He invites Corey into Corey's in there like, wow, you know,

1470
01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:02,160
Speaker 3: I thought you were great Wall Street Walter, but it

1471
01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:05,559
Speaker 3: turns out you're You're a real joke. I like you

1472
01:17:05,640 --> 01:17:08,200
Speaker 3: at all. And while Street Walter is like, let me

1473
01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:10,519
Speaker 3: change your mind. Come look at my wall safe. I've

1474
01:17:10,520 --> 01:17:15,120
Speaker 3: got money, and Corey's like, oh, money, but I don't.

1475
01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:18,479
Speaker 3: I don't think now I've forgotten this detail. Is Corey

1476
01:17:18,560 --> 01:17:20,400
Speaker 3: going to go for the deal? I don't think so.

1477
01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:23,559
Speaker 1: But doesn't Corey then agree to a plan where they're

1478
01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:25,519
Speaker 1: going to put out poison for the cat.

1479
01:17:25,680 --> 01:17:27,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're going to try to kill the cat. Yeah,

1480
01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:31,080
Speaker 3: but that's in his interest too, that's in everybody's interest

1481
01:17:31,160 --> 01:17:33,559
Speaker 3: in the boat. I mean, so he's going to put

1482
01:17:33,600 --> 01:17:37,320
Speaker 3: out poisoned food around the boat so that the cat

1483
01:17:37,360 --> 01:17:41,040
Speaker 3: will eat it and die. That's his plan, though he

1484
01:17:41,640 --> 01:17:44,519
Speaker 3: actually Lance is not killed by the cat. Lance is

1485
01:17:44,600 --> 01:17:49,000
Speaker 3: killed by his own clumsiness because he's like carrying a

1486
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:51,360
Speaker 3: gun around and he's in the engine room and he

1487
01:17:51,400 --> 01:17:53,800
Speaker 3: shoots something that blasts a bunch of steam on it.

1488
01:17:53,880 --> 01:17:56,559
Speaker 1: He's trying to shoot the cat. Yeah, it's a steam

1489
01:17:56,640 --> 01:18:00,000
Speaker 1: pipe and the steam just blasts them. By the way,

1490
01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:02,160
Speaker 1: from the effects, it's clear that this is like like

1491
01:18:02,240 --> 01:18:05,280
Speaker 1: fire extinguisher or something and not steam. But then but

1492
01:18:05,360 --> 01:18:09,960
Speaker 1: then we cut to this like horrific makeup effect on

1493
01:18:10,200 --> 01:18:13,000
Speaker 1: Corey where he's just been completely scalded to death, and

1494
01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:16,719
Speaker 1: it's pretty horrific. After seeing all these all these shots

1495
01:18:16,720 --> 01:18:19,439
Speaker 1: of the cat thing puppet emerging from the fake cat head,

1496
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:22,120
Speaker 1: this one was kind of a little alarming to see.

1497
01:18:22,280 --> 01:18:24,400
Speaker 1: You know, some I don't know how believable they are

1498
01:18:24,439 --> 01:18:28,800
Speaker 1: from a, you know, an anatomical level, but horror movie wise,

1499
01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:29,719
Speaker 1: it was very effective.

1500
01:18:29,840 --> 01:18:32,840
Speaker 3: So eventually the only passengers left alive on the yacht

1501
01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:36,760
Speaker 3: are Rachel, the captain, Martin the biologist, and wall Street.

1502
01:18:36,800 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 1: Walter's right, Oh, we forgot about Suzanne. Suzanne, still on board,

1503
01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:46,120
Speaker 1: eats poisoned cat food and then her veins explode.

1504
01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:50,680
Speaker 3: She thinks that the cat food is not poisoned. She

1505
01:18:50,840 --> 01:18:53,080
Speaker 3: like breaks into the pantry and eats a piece of

1506
01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:55,800
Speaker 3: bread and she's like, they were lying to me. It's

1507
01:18:55,840 --> 01:19:00,000
Speaker 3: not poisoned. It's fine, but then uh, yeah, her veins.

1508
01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:02,719
Speaker 1: Load, but again not directly killed by the cat.

1509
01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:04,879
Speaker 3: The cat is watching her when it happens.

1510
01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:06,439
Speaker 1: They do like to watch.

1511
01:19:06,680 --> 01:19:11,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, so there is then there's a storm. There's a storm,

1512
01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:13,320
Speaker 3: and the boat basically starts sinking. There was another part

1513
01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:17,280
Speaker 3: where it's hard to explain why this was so funny,

1514
01:19:17,760 --> 01:19:20,879
Speaker 3: but Rachel is like, there, you know, the hull is damaged.

1515
01:19:20,920 --> 01:19:23,040
Speaker 3: We're taking on water, and then it just cuts to

1516
01:19:23,200 --> 01:19:27,639
Speaker 3: a wall with like a clean, sort of softball sized

1517
01:19:27,800 --> 01:19:30,439
Speaker 3: round hole in the wood and there's like clearly a

1518
01:19:30,479 --> 01:19:32,920
Speaker 3: hose on the other side of it, just gushing through.

1519
01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:35,680
Speaker 1: Like, how did did the cat do this? How did

1520
01:19:35,680 --> 01:19:36,120
Speaker 1: this happen?

1521
01:19:36,240 --> 01:19:39,680
Speaker 3: I don't know, but it's really funny. And so the

1522
01:19:39,680 --> 01:19:43,439
Speaker 3: boat's sinking and Rachel and Martin they get away to

1523
01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:46,320
Speaker 3: a lifeboat. I guess they're trying. Walter is gonna come

1524
01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:49,360
Speaker 3: with them, but he tries to save his money. He's like, no,

1525
01:19:49,400 --> 01:19:51,080
Speaker 3: I got to get all my briefcases of.

1526
01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:52,880
Speaker 1: Cash, silver briefcases.

1527
01:19:53,439 --> 01:19:57,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, loading up these silver briefcases full of wads of cash,

1528
01:19:57,360 --> 01:19:59,799
Speaker 3: and he's like, gotta go back for another briefcase of cash,

1529
01:19:59,840 --> 01:20:02,120
Speaker 3: and you know what, He's going to be killed by greed.

1530
01:20:02,160 --> 01:20:04,560
Speaker 3: It's like it's like Ilsa at the end of the

1531
01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:06,880
Speaker 3: Last Crusade. You know, you let it go, but he

1532
01:20:06,880 --> 01:20:10,080
Speaker 3: can't let it go. The cat gets him. And then

1533
01:20:10,280 --> 01:20:12,840
Speaker 3: Rachel and Martin are in the lifeboat, and since they're

1534
01:20:12,960 --> 01:20:15,759
Speaker 3: now drifting away from the sinking yacht, you'd think they'd

1535
01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:19,160
Speaker 3: be okay, but no, there is a coda. There is

1536
01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:23,240
Speaker 3: one last conflict, and it is magnifico.

1537
01:20:23,640 --> 01:20:27,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is amazing. If you decide to watch Uninvited

1538
01:20:28,160 --> 01:20:30,720
Speaker 1: and you find yourself becoming a little bored and you're

1539
01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:34,479
Speaker 1: tempted to turn it off, don't turn it off. I

1540
01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:37,479
Speaker 1: would recommend just watching it, but if you must, at

1541
01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:40,280
Speaker 1: least fast forward to the end and watch this final

1542
01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:43,479
Speaker 1: sequence in the lifeboat, because it is it is just

1543
01:20:43,520 --> 01:20:45,720
Speaker 1: absolutely inspired B cinema.

1544
01:20:46,160 --> 01:20:49,559
Speaker 3: So they're in the lifeboat and then the the killer

1545
01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:52,519
Speaker 3: cat thing puppet starts popping up out of the water

1546
01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:55,719
Speaker 3: and attacking them on the boat. So like grabs Martin

1547
01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:58,280
Speaker 3: and he's like ah ah and wrestling it away, and

1548
01:20:58,280 --> 01:21:01,240
Speaker 3: then Rachel's like, oh no, did it by No, I'm okay.

1549
01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:04,400
Speaker 1: Oh there it is again, and it's back in the

1550
01:21:04,400 --> 01:21:07,080
Speaker 1: boat coming at them. It's like, oh, I mean, it's

1551
01:21:07,120 --> 01:21:10,599
Speaker 1: just troll. Two levels of awestness. And it reminded Actually,

1552
01:21:10,680 --> 01:21:12,920
Speaker 1: my wife made this connection first because I had to

1553
01:21:12,920 --> 01:21:14,479
Speaker 1: show where this ending. She didn't watch the whole film,

1554
01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:16,640
Speaker 1: and I'm like, you got to watch the ending, and

1555
01:21:16,680 --> 01:21:19,240
Speaker 1: she said, it's just like the moment in the Simpsons

1556
01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:21,640
Speaker 1: Treehouse of Horror where Homer gets his hands stuck in

1557
01:21:21,680 --> 01:21:22,080
Speaker 1: the toaster.

1558
01:21:22,200 --> 01:21:24,800
Speaker 3: Again. Yes, like Dad, it's stuck in there again. Oh,

1559
01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:27,759
Speaker 3: it's one of my favorites. It is. It's exactly that energy.

1560
01:21:28,439 --> 01:21:31,640
Speaker 3: And then the way that they defeat the cat is

1561
01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:32,360
Speaker 3: so good.

1562
01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:34,599
Speaker 1: Well, the whole logic ground. So they're like, the cat

1563
01:21:34,680 --> 01:21:37,240
Speaker 1: is only jumping in here after us, because this is

1564
01:21:37,280 --> 01:21:40,320
Speaker 1: the only thing floating in the area. We should throw

1565
01:21:40,640 --> 01:21:43,360
Speaker 1: the suitcase full of millions of dollars out into the

1566
01:21:43,400 --> 01:21:46,200
Speaker 1: water and then the cat will be forced to float

1567
01:21:46,200 --> 01:21:46,559
Speaker 1: on that.

1568
01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:50,240
Speaker 3: But first they dump out the millions of dollars.

1569
01:21:50,240 --> 01:21:52,080
Speaker 1: Well, let's get the money. Let's get the money out first.

1570
01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:56,200
Speaker 1: They did have that that that moment of clarity, I guess.

1571
01:21:56,680 --> 01:21:58,880
Speaker 1: But then yeah, they throw the briefcase out and the

1572
01:21:58,920 --> 01:22:02,760
Speaker 1: cat puppet cat thing is just setting on the floating briefcase.

1573
01:22:02,880 --> 01:22:05,200
Speaker 1: I don't know why he couldn't jump into the boat

1574
01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:07,799
Speaker 1: and attack them a third time and a fourth time.

1575
01:22:08,120 --> 01:22:11,120
Speaker 1: At this point, they're able to leave it behind again

1576
01:22:11,200 --> 01:22:14,040
Speaker 1: in a lifeboat that is not propelled by anything except

1577
01:22:14,080 --> 01:22:17,680
Speaker 1: for the storm all around them. So we get this

1578
01:22:17,720 --> 01:22:20,720
Speaker 1: shot of there they're going to safety and their lifeboat

1579
01:22:20,880 --> 01:22:23,559
Speaker 1: and there is cat thing floating on the silver briefcase

1580
01:22:23,600 --> 01:22:24,200
Speaker 1: in the ocean.

1581
01:22:24,840 --> 01:22:27,760
Speaker 3: So evil wall Street Walter got his comeuppance and his

1582
01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:31,840
Speaker 3: co conspirators. Unfortunately, many innocent people perished along the way

1583
01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:34,280
Speaker 3: as well. But our two heroes in the end, they

1584
01:22:34,360 --> 01:22:37,040
Speaker 3: drift to the Cayman Islands, I guess, and they get

1585
01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:39,000
Speaker 3: to walk away with a duffel bag full of money,

1586
01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:41,400
Speaker 3: and there's like a scene of them talking to the authorities,

1587
01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:45,760
Speaker 3: like explaining what happened, and the authorities are like, I

1588
01:22:45,760 --> 01:22:48,200
Speaker 3: don't know about this cat monster story. But they're both

1589
01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:50,240
Speaker 3: just like looking at the duffel bag like can we

1590
01:22:50,360 --> 01:22:50,960
Speaker 3: take this?

1591
01:22:51,800 --> 01:22:54,080
Speaker 1: Yeah? And they're like, yeah, sure, go for it. You

1592
01:22:54,320 --> 01:22:58,439
Speaker 1: two need a vacation after all that. So it seems

1593
01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:02,439
Speaker 1: like our hero our survivors are are on track for

1594
01:23:02,479 --> 01:23:03,360
Speaker 1: a happy ending here.

1595
01:23:03,720 --> 01:23:06,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, though, I guess Captain Rachel is not going to

1596
01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:08,680
Speaker 3: get the boat she wanted. Maybe she's going to get

1597
01:23:08,680 --> 01:23:09,320
Speaker 3: a different boat.

1598
01:23:09,600 --> 01:23:11,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think she'd want a different boat after all this,

1599
01:23:12,200 --> 01:23:15,799
Speaker 1: you know what a blood bath boat. That's I'm probably

1600
01:23:15,800 --> 01:23:18,840
Speaker 1: still poisoned by the cat, the mutant cat that was

1601
01:23:18,920 --> 01:23:19,840
Speaker 1: running them up and boarded.

1602
01:23:20,080 --> 01:23:22,720
Speaker 3: I guess they are competing interests there, Like it has

1603
01:23:22,800 --> 01:23:26,120
Speaker 3: sentimental family values, kind of a legacy yacht, but also

1604
01:23:26,320 --> 01:23:28,559
Speaker 3: it was where the cat thing killed all those people.

1605
01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:32,240
Speaker 1: I don't know, but you, even though we have a

1606
01:23:32,320 --> 01:23:35,080
Speaker 1: essentially a happy ending here, you need something a little

1607
01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:37,680
Speaker 1: more on a sci fi horror movie like this. You

1608
01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:40,479
Speaker 1: need a little like bump ump bum action, but you know,

1609
01:23:40,800 --> 01:23:43,400
Speaker 1: maybe setting up for a sequel, but at least leaving

1610
01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:46,360
Speaker 1: you with an uneasy feeling that things are not going

1611
01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:47,000
Speaker 1: to be okay.

1612
01:23:47,360 --> 01:23:50,840
Speaker 3: Two twist ending. Now there's the theatrical twist ending. The

1613
01:23:50,840 --> 01:23:54,360
Speaker 3: one I know is the one on the beach. Is

1614
01:23:54,360 --> 01:23:56,440
Speaker 3: that the same one that was in your version.

1615
01:23:56,479 --> 01:23:57,519
Speaker 1: In the theatrical yet?

1616
01:23:57,520 --> 01:24:01,400
Speaker 3: Okay? Yeah? So wait, why don't you marry? What happens here?

1617
01:24:01,439 --> 01:24:04,200
Speaker 1: Okay? So we get a nice beach scene. I believe

1618
01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:06,240
Speaker 1: what is the name of this beach? This is actually

1619
01:24:06,280 --> 01:24:08,800
Speaker 1: a California beach that a lot of stuff has been

1620
01:24:08,800 --> 01:24:11,960
Speaker 1: shot on. This is not Florida, but on this beach

1621
01:24:12,040 --> 01:24:15,440
Speaker 1: we see Oh, here washed up is the silver briefcase

1622
01:24:16,120 --> 01:24:18,320
Speaker 1: again that used to have cash in it, that was emptied,

1623
01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:21,320
Speaker 1: and it was the last place that we saw cat thing.

1624
01:24:21,920 --> 01:24:24,680
Speaker 1: And then here is a little boy walking along on

1625
01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:27,800
Speaker 1: the beach. This is actually Graydon Clark's son, by the way,

1626
01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:31,640
Speaker 1: and he finds a cat. Now, of note, this is

1627
01:24:31,680 --> 01:24:33,599
Speaker 1: not the same cat we've been seeing the whole time.

1628
01:24:33,640 --> 01:24:35,000
Speaker 1: This is like a dark cat. This is not an

1629
01:24:35,040 --> 01:24:38,360
Speaker 1: orange tabby. But we are to assume I guess that

1630
01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:41,599
Speaker 1: this cat is cat thing or has cat thing inside it,

1631
01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:45,040
Speaker 1: because the child picks up cat thing is holding him,

1632
01:24:45,280 --> 01:24:48,040
Speaker 1: and then we get an ominous freeze frame and then

1633
01:24:48,080 --> 01:24:50,280
Speaker 1: a zoom in on the child holding the cat.

1634
01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:53,080
Speaker 3: Well, the cat was more mutated than anything Martin the

1635
01:24:53,120 --> 01:24:55,599
Speaker 3: biologist had ever seen, so clearly he could mutate its

1636
01:24:55,640 --> 01:24:58,320
Speaker 3: coat too, So yeah, that's why it looks different.

1637
01:24:58,080 --> 01:25:00,519
Speaker 1: Now, yeah, or it is a parasite it found a

1638
01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:03,280
Speaker 1: new cat to occupy it. I don't know either. Interpretation

1639
01:25:03,400 --> 01:25:04,280
Speaker 1: I guess is valid.

1640
01:25:04,640 --> 01:25:06,640
Speaker 3: But what was the deal with the alternate ending. Was

1641
01:25:06,680 --> 01:25:07,960
Speaker 3: there like a European cut.

1642
01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:11,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's a different twist ending. And remember in

1643
01:25:11,880 --> 01:25:15,120
Speaker 1: this version, we don't see gray and Clark at the

1644
01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:17,760
Speaker 1: beginning of the film as a doctor. Instead we see

1645
01:25:17,840 --> 01:25:21,160
Speaker 1: him here at the end. We're at the marina there

1646
01:25:21,200 --> 01:25:24,559
Speaker 1: on the dock, and the child brings this suitcase to

1647
01:25:25,040 --> 01:25:27,960
Speaker 1: the father or assuming it's the father played by Graydon Clark,

1648
01:25:28,200 --> 01:25:30,880
Speaker 1: and he's like, oh, what's this suitcase. Let's open it up.

1649
01:25:30,960 --> 01:25:32,880
Speaker 1: Put it up. They put it up there on a table,

1650
01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:36,000
Speaker 1: open it up, and then we get a jump scare

1651
01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:40,680
Speaker 1: of cat thing, the puppet version, jumping out of the

1652
01:25:40,720 --> 01:25:44,400
Speaker 1: briefcase at us the audience, and we get this awesome

1653
01:25:44,600 --> 01:25:47,839
Speaker 1: like snarl growl sound that it makes throughout the picture,

1654
01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:49,920
Speaker 1: and then freeze frame and then we cut to the

1655
01:25:49,920 --> 01:25:53,400
Speaker 1: credits with that horrible theme song playing over it. The

1656
01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:58,000
Speaker 1: theatrical version has just you know, the scary score from

1657
01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:02,519
Speaker 1: the picture. International version gets that horrible uninvited theme music.

1658
01:26:05,120 --> 01:26:08,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's uninvited.

1659
01:26:08,760 --> 01:26:11,040
Speaker 1: That is. Yes, it gives us a lot to think

1660
01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:16,639
Speaker 1: about about about humanity's relationship with cats. No, it doesn't

1661
01:26:16,640 --> 01:26:18,240
Speaker 1: really give for anything to think about it. It is

1662
01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:22,160
Speaker 1: a but it is an alarmingly good B movie. This one.

1663
01:26:22,680 --> 01:26:26,240
Speaker 1: This one has a well deserved following among B movie

1664
01:26:26,240 --> 01:26:30,080
Speaker 1: and schlock fans. So if you like quote unquote bad movies,

1665
01:26:30,120 --> 01:26:33,000
Speaker 1: if you like cheesy movies, this one's worth picking up.

1666
01:26:33,040 --> 01:26:35,600
Speaker 1: It's I mean, it's again, it's got some fun performances

1667
01:26:35,640 --> 01:26:39,360
Speaker 1: in it. It's competently made. On the whole, It's very watchable.

1668
01:26:39,360 --> 01:26:41,720
Speaker 1: I don't think it ever has a dull moment. It's

1669
01:26:41,800 --> 01:26:42,599
Speaker 1: just a lot of fun.

1670
01:26:42,880 --> 01:26:46,120
Speaker 3: I just remembered I think I rented this in the

1671
01:26:46,160 --> 01:26:50,559
Speaker 3: same batch where I rented Night Beast. Oh that that

1672
01:26:50,600 --> 01:26:54,080
Speaker 3: all comes together as like a really good, really really

1673
01:26:54,080 --> 01:26:55,519
Speaker 3: good video drum hole for me.

1674
01:26:55,960 --> 01:26:59,679
Speaker 1: Yes, Night Beast is incredible. And by the way, if

1675
01:26:59,720 --> 01:27:01,400
Speaker 1: any out there, if you happen to be in the

1676
01:27:01,400 --> 01:27:04,080
Speaker 1: Atlanta area and you're going to Monster Rama this weekend,

1677
01:27:04,760 --> 01:27:06,840
Speaker 1: there's going to be a showing of Night Beast as

1678
01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:10,160
Speaker 1: part of the track there. Yeah, they're also gonna there's

1679
01:27:10,160 --> 01:27:13,160

Speaker 1: on the show here. Queen of Blood is going to

1681
01:27:16,080 --> 01:27:19,599
Speaker 1: be be presented. So, yeah, if you like monster movies,

1682
01:27:19,600 --> 01:27:21,080
Speaker 1: if you like some of the weird house movies, we've

1683
01:27:21,080 --> 01:27:22,840
Speaker 1: talked about that. That's worth checking out if you're in

1684
01:27:22,880 --> 01:27:23,280
