1
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 1: Welcome everyone. It is Wednesday, October eighth, and this is

2
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 1: the latest installment of Deep Cuts Amy and TJ's Halloween

3
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,920
Speaker 1: horror hit list. And today on Wednesday, we are up

4
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: to number twenty four. And I love a recent headline.

5
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,319
Speaker 1: This is an older movie from two thousand and seven,

6
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 1: so almost twenty years ago, but this was a recent headline,

7
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 1: just from a couple days ago from the website movie

8
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 1: Web to describe our next movie, the most underrated vampire

9
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,959
Speaker 1: movie of the century, sings its teeth into a new

10
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: streaming home so it is available to everyone now. But yes,

11
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: we are talking about two thousand and seven's Thirty Days

12
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 1: of Night, number twenty four on our list.

13
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 2: This is the best, one of the best concepts for

14
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 2: a vampire movement ever seen, maybe the best.

15
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 1: Yes, because it's actually fun. This is a vampire movie

16
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: that feels apocalyptic, that feels almost like a zombie movie

17
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,680
Speaker 1: except for its vampires. And we're used to seeing vampires

18
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: be a little bit more romantic, and the genre of

19
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: vampires has always been I feel like, oftentimes coupled with

20
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 1: some sort of romance, some sort of fascination with humans,

21
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 1: and bringing humans into the vampire world. This is very different.

22
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 2: Oh, it's Dracula was sexy exactly. Jackiela could buy you

23
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 2: a drink and you'd be raided or you know, you

24
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 2: have to attack me, sir, bite me, baby, take me.

25
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 2: Uh it is what we're all e been used to.

26
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: And even yes, you go back to I think a

27
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 2: lot of people remember interview with a vampire. Those are

28
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 2: I mean Tom Prus and a pretty sexy vampires. This

29
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 2: ain't that at all. Uh.

30
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: Yes, this movie runs a little bit longer than we're

31
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: used to, but honestly, it goes by so quickly because

32
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: it's so good. We just rewatched this. I don't even

33
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: know how many times I've seen this movie, but I

34
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: am a huge fan. We both are. It's an hour

35
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: fifty three minutes rateed R and the genre is horror,

36
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 1: mystery thriller. We have a synopsis for you as well.

37
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: It reads. In the far Northern Hemisphere, the small town

38
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 1: of Barrow, Alaska, experiences a solid month of darkness every year.

39
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 1: Though most of the residents head south for the winter,

40
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 1: some townspeople remain behind. However, those that stay regret their

41
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: decision when one year, hungry vampires descend on Barrow to

42
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: feed Sheriff Ebitt and his wife and a dwindling band

43
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: of survivors must try to last until dawn breaks over

44
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: Barrow's month long twilight. What a cool concept, the.

45
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 2: Concept there being if you caught this, if any horror

46
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,079
Speaker 2: movie you represent, vampire horror movie. If you're scared, scared,

47
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 2: scared the whole movie, the one time you relax and

48
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 2: get relief as.

49
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 1: Win during the daily dail light.

50
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 2: Soon as you see a daytime see you go, we're

51
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 2: cool for a minute. There is no daylight for thirty days.

52
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 2: This movie the concept that vampires can roam free and

53
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 2: there's no hiding from them day or night for thirty days.

54
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,679
Speaker 2: It's a cool entrapment type of a movie. Kind of

55
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 2: it sounds crazy compared to you know, I love Diehard,

56
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 2: but this idea that you're in there with your enemy

57
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 2: and nobody can go anywhere is what this movie feels like.

58
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: Oh it's so And it did really really well at

59
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: the box office, seventy five point five million. It had

60
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: a budget of thirty million. It did really well, but

61
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: the critics did not give it the love that we

62
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: believe it deserves. However, I have noticed again this was

63
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: two thousand and seven, so almost twenty years now. Recent

64
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: reviews have been much more positive because sometimes critics will

65
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: go back and re review it, and certainly audience members

66
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: who see it on streaming services will review it. And

67
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 1: I've noticed there is a tonal shift from when it

68
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: first came out versus now. So I don't know if

69
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 1: there's an appreciation now that we have more perspective or

70
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: they were expecting something different. But it's really interesting to

71
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: see the arc of the critics. This has a stellar cast.

72
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: Josh Hartnett plays the sheriff, his wife Melissa George estranged wife,

73
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: I should say in the movie. And then Danny Huston,

74
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: who got a claim from everyone, even the critics who

75
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: didn't like the movie. He plays the lead vampire. It

76
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: was resoundingly people were so impressed with his performance.

77
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 2: Okay, and people you might not know his name, you here,

78
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 2: you see his face, You're going to go, oh yeah,

79
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 2: oh yeah, you'll probably start being able to name some

80
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,239
Speaker 2: things you've seen him in. You haven't seen him like this, Oh.

81
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 1: It's so good. And then Ben Foster is really good

82
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: in this as well. But the director David Slade. Anyway,

83
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: it was a stellar cast. I thought it an. We

84
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: thought it was an incredible concept and I thought it

85
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: was well executed. Did you do you have anything negative

86
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: to say about the movie?

87
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 2: Yes, I probably will, but later. But the thing I

88
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 2: didn't piece this again until we start watching these movies

89
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 2: like this, and every day we were talking about the cast,

90
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 2: and I think a lot of horror movies are not

91
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 2: not necessarily known for great acting, or at least historically.

92
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 2: So it's to be a screen queen. Long as you

93
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,599
Speaker 2: can run, trip over a branch and scream really loud

94
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 2: and die really well on TV, that's a good horror movie, actress, sweetheart,

95
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 2: every have you noticed we've got Oscar winners, We've got

96
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 2: very accomplished, award winning actors in some of these horror

97
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 2: movies that are deep cuts. I guess it adds to

98
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 2: the point that good acting helps the product.

99
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I also think this. It seems as

100
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: if there's been a recent shift in years where I

101
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: think a lot of as you mentioned, well esteemed actors

102
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: might have been afraid bad pun there to do a

103
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: horror movie because they felt like maybe it would lower

104
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: their their artistic how they're considered. You know, it's not Shakespeare, right,

105
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: So it might have felt like a genre that is

106
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: beneath you know, well regarded actors, but we're seeing that

107
00:05:57,960 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: completely changed.

108
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 2: Tell me, obviously this year was a big deal with

109
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 2: weapons and centers, right, and so no, it's been No,

110
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 2: it's fun to say, I didn't necessarily put it together

111
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 2: till every movie we're reviewing, Oh she has an oscar,

112
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 2: Oh he has a golden globe. Oh he was in

113
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 2: this show. Oh they're great actors.

114
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 1: All right. So all that said, thirty Days of Night

115
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 1: only got a Rotten Tomato score of fifty percent, and

116
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: their audience score wasn't much better at fifty six percent.

117
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 1: We wholeheartedly disagree and urge you not because I think

118
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: sometimes you do see that and you say I'll pass.

119
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: It's probably not good. This is one you should not

120
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 1: pass on. This made our list for a reason.

121
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 2: You would have passed on this, I think, I mean,

122
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 2: given your I mean your rules. Usually if there's a

123
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 2: low critic score but a high audience score, you like,

124
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 2: hell yeah, I'm all in. But usually when you see

125
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 2: both of them, you see a low audience score, you're

126
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 2: kind of lukewarm.

127
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 1: I would have looked at this with significant skepticism. Absolutely

128
00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: but I so listen to the critic con consensus. While

129
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 1: Thirty Days of Night offers a few thrills, it ultimately

130
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 1: succumbs to erratic execution. All right, So that again would

131
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: turn a lot of folks off. But then and we

132
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 1: have some I actually found a lot of, like I said,

133
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 1: recent positive critic reviews, and certainly the audience reviews that

134
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: were on Rotten Tomatoes were much better the nearer you

135
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 1: are to this date, like some of them were written

136
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: a few days ago. Oh okay, right, so a sample

137
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: critic review. Here's one. This is one of the bad ones,

138
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: A sadly missed opportunity, a waste of talent on senseless

139
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: drek that made even the always welcome Danny Huston as

140
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: the Vampire Leader look silly. Wow, I couldn't agree more.

141
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: I couldn't disagree more. Sorry, I couldn't. He didn't look

142
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: silly at all. He was scary as hell.

143
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the whole time. What was that language they

144
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 2: were speaking, some language that even added to the.

145
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 1: Terrors and the noises they would make, like, oh my gosh,

146
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: I can't even do it. All right, So here's some

147
00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: of that. There was another bad one about his skin

148
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: is Count Shocula. I saw that one that was mean

149
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: and unnecessary.

150
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 2: And not accurate in the least bit. Agreed Count Schocula

151
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 2: wouldn't last thirty seconds.

152
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: In this movie was one of my favorite cereals as

153
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,559
Speaker 1: a kid growing up. No, but here are some of

154
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: the better good ones that critics gave. Here is one

155
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 1: of those rare movies that penetrates the membrane separating all

156
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: those disposable gotcha scarefests from genuinely engrossing supernatural thrillers. And

157
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 1: then another one, an entertaining horror and action film that,

158
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 1: by presenting vampires as truly monstrous and ruthless creatures, manages

159
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: to create an incredibly suspenseful experience.

160
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 2: We don't do that enough, and there's some that do it.

161
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 2: But I mean, yes, vampires are sexy right up until

162
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 2: they kill you, but they're wearing all black. They usually

163
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 2: have a nice tailored outfit, right, This is not that

164
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 2: vampires are monsters. Start to finish in this movie, and

165
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 2: there's not a single one of them you would ever

166
00:08:59,320 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 2: want to be close to.

167
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: Oh my god, No, and the teeth, the makeup, it

168
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 1: was so good. They did look monstrous from start to finish,

169
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: wanted to read a couple of audience recent audience reviews

170
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 1: that I really liked and thought summed up part of

171
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: why we put this on our list. I love this movie,

172
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: says KK. Thirty Days of Night is dark, suspenseful, and

173
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: some gross moments, but excellent acting. Even knowing what the

174
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 1: big bad was to be from the get go didn't

175
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: lose my interest. Rather, the predatory nature of the vampires,

176
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: led by Hustin as Marlowe, made me wonder who was

177
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: next and how they would be killed. Hustin really embodied

178
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: a soulless, evil vampire that didn't just kill humans to

179
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 1: eat and live, but rather appear to hate and despise

180
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 1: human existence.

181
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,119
Speaker 2: You can't reason, You cannot reason with them under any circumstance.

182
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,559
Speaker 1: Yes, and then Logan writes an all time great vampire movie.

183
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 1: Ignore the critics who are just mad that nobody bangs

184
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: a vamp in this one. I started laughing because it

185
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,319
Speaker 1: is true. I think there's that expectation of the sexiness.

186
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 2: There is nothing at all. They are creatures in the

187
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 2: night who are here to kill all of you. That

188
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 2: is the movie, and there is not. Some of the

189
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 2: fight scenes the dramatic. They're shot in such a way

190
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 2: like battlefields, just in a small town. This is an

191
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 2: incredible movie. This is a look. We recommend all of them,

192
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 2: but this is what I will scream against critics about.

193
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 1: It stays with you and like you said, like the scenery,

194
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: the imagery, This Alaskan town frozen with snow everywhere, cut

195
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 1: off from civilization, so to speak, with the roads and

196
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: the weather and the darkness. It's so good. So I

197
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 1: was trying to come up with a way to write

198
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 1: why it made our list, and I found a website

199
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: that summed it up better than I could say it.

200
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 1: So I want to read it because this is exactly

201
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 1: why we chose this movie for our list. Thirty Days

202
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 1: of Night helped give birth to a new breed of vampire,

203
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: one that wasn't in interested in holding up in gothic

204
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: castles or spending their nights in hip clubs with techno

205
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 1: music pumping all around them. The vampires and this one

206
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: were feral, animalistic, and monstrous, yet at the same time,

207
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: there was a method to their madness. There was organization

208
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 1: among the chaos, which made them feel even more terrifying.

209
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: I couldn't have said it better.

210
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 2: To add to that, they were we saw victims like

211
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 2: disappear in a flash, yes, like they were coming out

212
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 2: of nowhere and their attack like you couldn't see anything

213
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 2: going on, and that added to I think the fear.

214
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 2: I think that might have been some of the early

215
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 2: kills to where now you're wondering in every scene, this

216
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 2: person's gonna who knows how they're gonna go out?

217
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, they just get like whipped underneath a building or

218
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: whipped underneath the truck, and you're like, where did they

219
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: just go? Oh my god, what's happening to them?

220
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 2: So, yeah, this was a there were I'm trying to

221
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 2: I don't want to give this scene away, but there

222
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 2: are scenes that no no violence takes place that there

223
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 2: is no thing about the scene on the road when

224
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 2: they're like, what is that chasing us? Oh? Yes, and

225
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 2: there would nobody die. Nobody got hurt in that scene,

226
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 2: even but you're scared as all get out because there's

227
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 2: just it's cold, it's dark, there's a mystery, and this

228
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 2: thing is I'm going seventy miles an hour. For some reason,

229
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 2: something just caught me. The tension in that scene is

230
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: that kind of what goes throughout that you're actually nervous

231
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 2: and scared of what's around the corner.

232
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, like super whom human strength coming up at you?

233
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 1: All right? So who is this for? Obviously anyone who

234
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,199
Speaker 1: loves a vampire movie, anyone who loves like an end

235
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: of day's apocalyptic style movie, because that's what it felt

236
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 1: like with the town on fire and everything, like the

237
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: fights that were going on, it felt apocalyptic. Lots of

238
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 1: jump scares, and there is a lot of gore, I

239
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: would say, and I wanted to add this. I think

240
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: this movie is for anyone who's rooting for love in

241
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: tough times. I say this because I had fun while

242
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 1: being scared hoping that Josh Hartnett and Melissa George's care

243
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: Ara get back together. While they're fighting vampires. I was

244
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: hoping that they were also fighting to save their troubled marriage.

245
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 2: I'm with you there, and I will admit the first

246
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 2: time or what, but I got tears in my eyes

247
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 2: at the end of this movie, and I bet you

248
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 2: all will too, because they do such a good job

249
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 2: of building their relationship even though they're no longer in

250
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 2: one You your heart is in it with him.

251
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: And wasn't it Melissa George.

252
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 2: Yah, your heart is in it with them, and he

253
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 2: is as heroic as you will ever see. Josh Hartnett

254
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 2: in this movie. And I'm telling you the end is

255
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 2: holy hell, I'm telling you it broke me down.

256
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, and she's a badass in this movie too. I

257
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: love it. They're both strong. It's not like one's weak

258
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 1: and one's helping together. They were both. They were they

259
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 1: were a team. That's I'm getting choked, Okay.

260
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 2: So I will say that you talk about who the

261
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 2: movie is for, it's for anybody who who who likes

262
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 2: being on the edge of your seat for an entire

263
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 2: movie like this grabs you very early on, and even

264
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,839
Speaker 2: the moments where there's not violence and you don't see

265
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 2: a vampire, you're standing by waiting for one to come,

266
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 2: or what's the next word is gonna come out of

267
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 2: his mouth? That that's just constant tension, and they build

268
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 2: a mystery for so long the town doesn't know what's

269
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 2: going like what is happening to us? It is a

270
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 2: great build. So yes, if you like edge of your

271
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 2: seat stuff, this takes you from beginning to end almost.

272
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: All right, coming up, we're gonna tell you who it's

273
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 1: not for What's a Parrot with where you can watch it?

274
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: And to tease for our next movie on the list.

275
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 2: All right, we continue now number what is it on

276
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 2: the list? Twenty four? Twenty four? Now on the list

277
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 2: thirty Days of Night. Yes, it is a vampire movie

278
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 2: like you have never seen before. It starts Josh Hartnett.

279
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 2: Can we give this dude some love? He took a

280
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 2: break from acting for a little while, but he has

281
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 2: come back in a few things that I have loved

282
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 2: seeing him in. I know Trapp didn't get a whole

283
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 2: lot of great reviews, but he carried that as a

284
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 2: as a what an OCD serial killer?

285
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 1: Yes, I mean the first half of the movie was

286
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 1: amazing and compelling. They just kind of lost their way,

287
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: I think with the writing and the second half. But

288
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 1: it was nothing. It had nothing to do with his performance.

289
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: He was amazing.

290
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 2: But he's had several things he's come back, and I

291
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 2: will add I mean, I just this was before he

292
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 2: took the so it was twenty two years of movie.

293
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: This was two thousand and seven.

294
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 2: He took the break after what I can't remember when

295
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 2: he took his break, but man, in the last few years,

296
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 2: and this just shows The dude's a solid, solid actor

297
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 2: and has been for a long time, so it was

298
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 2: it was cool to go back and watch something and

299
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 2: to remember I guess the younger cat. Now we see

300
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 2: him as an.

301
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 1: Older guy movies, but he's likeable.

302
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 2: He is. Man. I like this guy.

303
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: I really do too. All Right, So who is this

304
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: movie not for? Well? I would say if you're alone,

305
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: you should not watch it. I think it will creep

306
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: you out. I don't know. You may disagree, TJ. But

307
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: and if you obviously, if you don't like blow and gods,

308
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: you know, vampires are eating people. Okay, so this is gory.

309
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: So if that's not your jam, this isn't your movie.

310
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: But man, even if you could just look away during

311
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: those parts and still get the rest of it, I

312
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 1: still I think most people who like or love horror

313
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: movies are going to love this movie. I really think that.

314
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. And even if you look away, you got to

315
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 2: deal with the sound effcts, because you're gonna hear some

316
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 2: slashing and some chomping and some ove all kinds of stuff. No,

317
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 2: if you don't like if you're immediately turned off by

318
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 2: blood and guts and killing, and it's essentially monsters eating people.

319
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 2: It's not like shots and stabs. This is like some

320
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 2: pretty mantra. They use their teeth and their sharp claws

321
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 2: to deal with their victims. So if you don't think

322
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 2: you can stomach that, then heads.

323
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: Up, or like anyone laughing with blood all over their face,

324
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: like there is there are some sister pretty haunting images

325
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: that stay with you.

326
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 2: To your point about I guess we're different on this regard.

327
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 2: If this is one like like you said, I if

328
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 2: you want to watch it by yourself, because I'm not

329
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 2: worried about the vampire jumping through the window like you said.

330
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 2: Sometimes on like the don't watch that alone because the

331
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 2: next time you hear a creak in your house, you're

332
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 2: gonna freak out. This is one where the vampires don't

333
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 2: necessarily scare me.

334
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: I see. I feel like at night when I'm sleeping

335
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: or whatever, like when I'm trying to go to bed

336
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: and I'm alone and I've just watched that movie that's

337
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: not I'm like, damn it, what did I watch that

338
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 1: movie alone? This might be one of them for me.

339
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 2: How many nights are you sleeping alone these days?

340
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,920
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm just rememberring, I'm remembering back to those days

341
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: of traveling alone in a hotel room and then being

342
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 1: so regretful of a movie I watched. I just I

343
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: have memories of that back in the day when I

344
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 1: used to sleep alone sometimes. All right, what to pair

345
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: this with? Atmosphere? Food, drinks? All right, so obviously red

346
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: wine and if you're watching a vampire movie, it's fun

347
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:51,119
Speaker 1: to have a glass of red wine. You disagree, You know.

348
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 2: Red wine and horror don't go together matter.

349
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 1: I know they don't normally, but I'm saying, when you're

350
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 1: watching a vampire movie, it's kind of fun. Yeah.

351
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 2: The thing about drinking blood, yeah, you know, most normal

352
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 2: people would want to do.

353
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: And I don't know why I felt like this, but

354
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 1: I just feel like this. Have you ever mixed raisinets

355
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 1: with popcorn?

356
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 2: No?

357
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,959
Speaker 1: It's so good. No, it's amazing. It's like a salty sweet.

358
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 2: I don't actually I never heard of that.

359
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: I think, Oh my gosh, people do it all the time. Raisinets,

360
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 1: so the chocolate covered reason with popcorn. I know people

361
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,919
Speaker 1: who put the box of raisinets and put it in

362
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: the popcorn and mix them together so you you get

363
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 1: a handful of salty sweet.

364
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:30,639
Speaker 2: This is why I don't hang with your friends.

365
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 1: For some reason, I feel like this movie would be really,

366
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: really really good to do that with. Why because you

367
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 1: get salty sweet. There's no you get hitty sweet with

368
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 1: the salty ever.

369
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,120
Speaker 2: Why would I do? Okay, that's a different episode, stark, Okay.

370
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: All right. I also, obviously, this is one where I

371
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: believe you have to watch at night because it's dark.

372
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 1: You know, we've talked about this. We try. We like

373
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 1: horror movies twenty four to seven, but this one would

374
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,160
Speaker 1: be a hard one to watch during the day because

375
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 1: it's dark and then you've got the light. So I

376
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 1: just this mood, the ambiance, and even just the fact

377
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 1: that all the scenes are.

378
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 2: Can't do it. Yes, you cannot watch this with sunlight

379
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 2: coming into the room.

380
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: And I think this one is a fun one to

381
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: watch with a group.

382
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,159
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, because you react to so many things and

383
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 2: there'll be some people going ooh, look at this. Other

384
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 2: than a hiding in the face, that's a very fun

385
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 2: communal thing. This is one that will cause different people

386
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 2: to react in different ways, and to have them all

387
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 2: in one room is fun.

388
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. This is a this is a Halloween party kind

389
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: of a film. I think is really fun to watch,

390
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: all right, And the cool thing is you can watch this.

391
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: Everybody can watch it for free. That was part of

392
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 1: why I think there was a resurgence of recommendations and

393
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,400
Speaker 1: reviews because it's free on two b it was as

394
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 1: of October first, so people got excited that they could

395
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 1: watch it. But if you have a Paramount Plus subscription,

396
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 1: and I think that's you can get that with Hulu

397
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,200
Speaker 1: or with Prime Video if you've got an add on, which,

398
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 1: of course watch this one Paramount Plus. I think Hulu

399
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 1: or Prime Video because.

400
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 2: I thought there was in our library. This is not.

401
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 1: Oh wait, I do own this one. I do own

402
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 1: this one. Actually there. I do have a few horror

403
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: movies that I put into my Apple Music Library, Apple

404
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 1: Movie Library, and this is among them. But I do

405
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 1: think that we are Paramount Plus subscribers because so many

406
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 1: horror movies come through that and Shutter, so we never

407
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 1: want to miss Shutter.

408
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 2: We need to tell people about Shutters.

409
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 1: They don't know what Shutter and Paramount Plus are like

410
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 1: epic four horror movies. So yes, you can watch it.

411
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: Everyone can watch it, and we're excited and hope you do.

412
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: All right, our next episode I was really excited about

413
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:27,120
Speaker 1: this tease. Our our next movie on the hit list.

414
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 1: It would be number twenty three, so it's also underrated.

415
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 1: It also has some very big names attached to the movie,

416
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 1: and among them a name you don't often see in

417
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:45,160
Speaker 1: a horror movie, Betty White.

418
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 2: And it's my favorite role. I haven't ever seen her it.

419
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,679
Speaker 1: How's that for a tease? All right, and with that,

420
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,360
Speaker 1: thank you everyone for listening. We hope you're enjoying our

421
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 1: horror hit list. I may Bee Roebuck alongside TJ. Holmes.

422
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:57,360
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you soon.

423
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 2: S
