Show of hands who wants to watch an old lady sorta come from getting her neck bit on her nighttime wedding day this week on King me in a small town Evil spreads quickly. This is Salem's lot 2004 Mm-hmm. Oh that theme that theme song sounded fresh tonight. Yeah, oh it's rockin And every time and every time the drums go pop pop.
I know I'm about to be on mic And I swallow my food. Oh king me baby Welcome to the King me program the official podcast of King me the official Stephen King movie podcast the unofficial podcast of The Samsung galaxy Is that the one that explodes in people's pockets? I hope so that's the one I meant Generals since yeah 2015 same Yes, it's the official podcast as well of the nets they used to catch workers who tried jumping out of the apple building Which I think is a fake story I'm not even when did that happen you don't remember there was like a big big hoopla. I'll feel bad if it's real and I'm calling it a hoopla And by the way listeners don't call it a hoopla.
I've been here for years. Oh my god. I know Yeah, no, there was like a story like four or five years ago about They're being nets outside the windows of the apple factory because so many workers were jumping out But this was overseas or this was here and yeah, no, it was I think they said it was in China Which sounds fake right off to that sounds like a lie that someone who doesn't know much about Asia would tell Yeah, you know, they have nets to catch all the jumpers to catch all the Chinese people. Yeah, is it just no That's San Francisco in the 1800s I mean if they know their nets out there, why would they jump unless they're like, I don't know maybe acrobats of some sort.
Oh Okay, okay. I like where your head's at or they're fish who are used to being caught ah Yeah, maybe they're like dolphin just caught in the net a bunch of bluefin tuna Oh that toro that fatty to know who give me some of that fat belly right there.

Yeah, I don't know I guess Yeah, let's talk about it.
Great. I'm not trying to be difficult That's it Yeah, so guys we're talking about Salem's lot from 2004 If you're in 2004 You you may know that we've we've already talked about the original sales lot it was episode two way back when You're gonna have to dig deep through the archives if you want to find episode two Good luck to you. Yeah, yeah, I would say if you want to know more about the first Salem's lot Don't listen to episode two. Just look it up.
Those are really episodes We talked about it on our christine episode of wall-to-wall carpenter, which is a What do you call it? A commentary track for a track. Thank you Yeah, it's a commentary track for the christine episode of king me Um, it's a bit of insanity. Um, it's virtual insanity.
Oh, it's such a good song Yeah, that was uh, that was a weird time and if you give us your money you can listen to it right now Yeah, I think we should we maybe release that one into the king me feed since it's a crossover app It might be a bit jumping on point for people even though it's nothing like the rest of the episodes Yeah, it's nothing like the rest of the episodes and it's if anything it's off-putting Well, okay, so hear me out I think there's a certain value to promising that none of the other episodes will be like that I would do anything to guarantee that I'd never have to hear something like that again And giving two guys five dollars Yeah, it's it's almost like a hostage situation that we got going on here Yeah, you know, you were sticking into homeless people earlier. Sure asking people for five dollars So yeah, so guys the shoe with the big toe sticking out is on the other foot now, isn't it? Little toe is hanging out. Oh, but out of a big hole All right, Ellen's live.

That's my Who was saying that that was his closer?
Stabling balls. Yeah, it was on a podcast. Someone said they saw him do stand up And he tells he talks about stapling his balls and someone joke that was his closer Oh man. Yeah, stapling his balls to the stool What else is going on?

Did you? Do you want to cut my fucking head off, please? Do you want to shit in my mouth? It'll be a total prank It's a prank star.
It's a total prank. You got it, man Um guys I fucking breeze right over it Rob Lowe is also a fucking king alum de doi He was in the stand so fucking stupid because I've never forgot he was that handsome Mute boy And honestly Rob Lowe should be seen and not heard yeah And also the kiddo plays uh mark petry Dan bird is also a king alum. He was in fire starter 2 Oh, yeah, yeah, he was he uh he's at the point in his career in this movie where his voice is too old for his boyish face That's right Uh, shout out to dan shout out to rob uh, whoa I did not mean for that to happen. Yeah, that's me.
I was talking about bird and low not gaggly already and uh gaggly already's friend That's us. Hey, yeah Like frank, it's a shot on us. Yeah, yeah, you know what? We're so busy giving shout outs to other people in this life.
Yeah race that sometimes we forget to shut ourselves out No, you know what you do. You get a bath bomb you run you draw a bath and uh you give yourself a little shout out in the tub Yeah, all right. We're half an hour into this episode. We have not talked about the movie That's fine.
I didn't like it. I should this movie is better than the original there. I said it is but i'm gonna I'm gonna put a motion on the floor right now. Okay, uh, I shouldn't have to talk About the movies I don't like All in favor say aye nay all opposed nay Nay for sure nay.
Yeah, I don't know what I was thinking I had some time to think about it during the uh in favor vote. Yeah, I realized that I was way out of line It is better than the original though. I agree. Yeah, bra this movie starts with rob low uh tackling james crumwell out a window And like they both end up in the hospital and it's like wait what?
Sudden the bar pretty high me thinks. How do you sustain that for nine hours or however long this was? Oh, man It was long right. Yeah, this was three hours the original was three hours also, but I feel like this moved faster Here's what this one is lacking that the first one had in space.
Okay, a guy who's just about finished packing Putting a fan into his entirely full car. Well, we'll save for one space the exact size of a fan Yeah, everything is like a puzzle piece that's missing and it's in the shape of a oscillating desk fan Uh, it's also missing a guy popping out from behind a changing screen and slugging a guy in the face and then that being it Yeah I think besides those two things this movie has all of the same things I I agree. Yeah, no, it goes into it's it has more detail. Yeah, which is no because it's the same runtime like you said Yeah, well, that was one of the things that I remember about the original was that for the first what seems like two hours It drags on forever That there's like quote unquote picks up though.
It's still unbearable Yeah, even when it picks up, it's still very very slow But that first like two hours is just like it's meandering like people are slowly becoming vampires in the town But they never have right we talked about the show the vampires Well, yeah, and I was thinking about this because there's like right so there's the um, there's the scene in the kitchen Which is the same of both that's sort of like a very important scene There's also the shot of the little boy vampire flying outside the window asking to be led in to his friends room Yep, and like all I could think with that was like oh, wow, this looks about the same Yeah, yeah, yeah boy vampire technology had not really advanced In that 30 years sure So far ahead with our little boy technology right now though our LBT. Yeah, we're right on the cusp something Of of little boys almost being human Yeah, like that Spielberg movie AI. Oh, yeah Was that movie good or bad? I don't know.
I think it was bad when it came out, but I think it's good now I think that's what people would say it was like it was objectively bad now. It's objectively good. Yes, okay So it's not the world moving and changing around it. It's it's the movie itself.
Yeah, the movie got it got good Yeah, it's like a house settling into its foundation, right Um, I would like to address two things real quick. There's a dog in this movie named koojo Yeah, that felt weird and um at one point they're in a bar our main character Rob Lowe and what we're not and some guy is singing karaoke And he's singing stand by me. Um, yes, like the movie stand by me Like why why take the time? Shout out fun shout outs.
I guess but like shout out the friggin nightfly or something lord knows it Yeah, also Donald's other than is keeper's other than his father who was keeper's other than was him stand by me And lost boys, which is a vampire movie. Oh And also, uh, not only is Donald Sutherland keeper's other ones dad. He's also Santa Claus now Yeah, he looks exactly he's got a big ol Santa beard He does and it doesn't help that he says ho ho ho very much Yeah, okay. I got to come clean.
I like about what about the ho ho ho he never says in this movie. He doesn't say it one time Uh, so Rob Lowe is an author like all of Stephen King's characters. He comes back all of all of his characters Everyone yeah every single fucking one of them right everyone in shaw shank. Yeah.
Yeah got it Um He comes back to his hometown of Jerusalem's lot Which immediately made me think of Salem's lot part two Yeah, you know what? I was reminded of Salem's lot part two one with the night wedding scene And two with the going from I couldn't remember if this was in the first one But when they just go around killing all the vampires during the day. Yeah, yeah I said are you making fun about? Oh, man.
I want to revisit that movie. I think just for myself. Yeah, we'll probably uh, maybe we'll do that again We'll go back a vacation episode Yeah, we'll just go back and rewatch this L was lot two because it was so fucking good I'm fucked up. Oh god that kid who's wearing like white pants the first time you see him.
Yeah, yeah, little fashion boy Um, yeah, so fashion boys in this movie. No fashion boys Um, but this is like it's one of those movies. It's town full of townies, you know Um, wait a second. What's that a town full of townies does that mean?
Yeah, I think so. I think it's time for shining moments Here comes big Bad big. I wonder how much they pay for it up the college Who's the baseball? Let's just about find a smell of the world.
It said maybe pussy They don't cut me outside. It's and they probably don't have a phone either. Looney looney looney What is it? You want some?
Last town report said you were in arrears in your taxes Andy They're disordered. Yes, I'll never be lucky. Hey, I married anyone Let's make us baby doggy style Only rest of the tentacle Lion and coffees Children have gathered a chain that over Wait, she's like the one I used to have in high school before I was a pup But I got the cancer and she got the change so I neither of us hold that fun. That's okay.
That is really good Welcome to town. How'd out the middle of that? No, why god it feels longer than ever. Yeah, it's just you know It's it's constantly, uh, you know evolving and growing and um, it's like a living thing now.
It's townie profile, baby It's uh, it's townie profile, baby. I think Is it is? I think the rest of this This uh, I was over here s to be done in townie profile because everybody's fucking downie Um, that's right. A lot of uh and like main townies too.
So a lot of people calling each other like mister. Yeah, that's weird Like mister last name. Oh mister. Oh, oh, there Up the up yonder way.
Yeah, uh, well mister mias. I didn't appreciate you Uh getting those three us navy seals court martial mister mias. Yeah, so this movie It's it generally the same Uh, overall story as the original right I would say that like The original is sort of uh, like a skeleton Like it's the the framework. Oh, I know it's got that was really scary.
That's a skellington. Oh, oh boy Um go on Where where this one? I don't know there's I don't know it seems like again. We I've never read the book We don't read the books here.
Come on But it does seem like we read the books It does seem like that uh, this is more this is closer to the book Like there there's a voice over that Rob Lowe does Um some of the dialogue here just sounds like it's it's written, you know Yeah, yeah, uh sort of I don't know people are very turn of phrasing. Yeah, I'm thinking characters are Um, there's also like little things that like I don't know if they're you know, you call them like character Traits and whatever that get touched on but never really addressed So that's probably like they probably go into it deeper in the book, but we're not gonna do it here It's just like a little thing if you write it kind of whatever. Yeah, like the way's in real estate guy Yeah, yeah, yeah Now here's the thing though. Yeah ways in which it's different from the book.
Sure. I imagine Uh the fact that Rob Lowe's character wrote an expose about um war crimes during the iraq war. Yeah, that's right Man, yeah, what a weird way to like try to set this in the present. You know what it's weird It's actually it is in the original book Oh my god.
Stephen King predicted 9-11. Yeah, he pretty yeah like he in the book He doesn't explicitly say anything about 9-11. He just sort of goes into the aftermath of 9-11 Like he knows that once that happens, we're gonna invade iraq You know without any sort of like just cause or anything like that and then uh, you know well agree to disagree sure sure sure just kidding Uh, this has been right turns Um, yeah, what who else do we have here who some of the town folk? There's the doctor the fuck doctor.
Yeah, there's a there's a doctor played by uh, patty mamoa Hey, bobby or not mamoa that Jason mamoa is uh aquaman, uh, bobby mamone. Bobby mamone is uh, is doctor fuck Um, and that is not his character name his name is dr. James cody doctor dr. Fuck Hey, i'm dr.
Cody. You can call me dr. Fuck I'm dr. Cody, but you can call me.
Um Dr. Fuck Um, and his we He's a doctor in the hospital and a woman comes in with her baby baby sick and uh She's sort of she's like, I don't know. She's like flirting with a doctor and stuff and then what eventually happens is uh, they end up hooking up and sleeping together And before they do sleep together though when she's flirting with him, uh, there's there's a shot of her buttoning her shirt up after her baby Just got done feeding and him staring lustily at her nursing at those those feed bags right there those chewed up nips Look, i'm not saying i'm not criticizing i'm just saying it's not a sexy situation and he's a doctor Right like, uh, if anyone's not gonna be turned on by that it's a doctor. Yeah, it's it's clinical man and not for nothing but Yeah, I don't know.
There's probably like Some milk that's like leaking out onto the shirt and stuff. You know what i mean? Like it's just oh abso fucking lutely Yes, and again, you know, these are our bodies. This is this is natural.
Yeah, it's just you don't see a little milk come out and you go Oh god a little milk's about to come out a little milk's about to come out of me My penis In my penis I was doing like an Italian guy. I thought you were doing like a boar thing. No, I was doing how my penis I'm a oh my penis This is gonna cost us everything we have This is so daffol My um penis way slowed down Um, all right. Who else is here?
Uh, you have the bus driver who's like a Vietnam veteran Keeps keeps like pictures of the war in the glove compartment of the school bus You know what that's weird though. Yeah, it's weird. I mean it's weird one to do Sure, but to also like I don't know to have a Vietnam vet character who's not like at all traumatized by his experience He wants to keep reliving it while he's driving kids to school. Hey, you know what I didn't appreciate Uh, he's a Vietnam vet and he's got both of his legs.
All right. I need both of those legs taken off Get rid of them get rid of them lieutenant Dave Lieutenant everyone to be fair. How's he gonna drive the bus? Okay, that's true.
Maybe oh, I know how a veteran with no arms works the pedals Don't give me that that's bad um, all right, so Let's start the kids. Um, you have the Main character kid mark petry who's kind of like a he's got an asshole here. He's got a little shit You know, yeah in the original movie. He's just like He's his kid who's obsessed with like monster movies and uh, he has like little magic tricks, right?
Is that magic? Does the magic trick and his dad like get the fuck away from me? Yeah, he's a he's a little uh little copperfield this guy Hey, hey dad. Hey dad.
Come here. I'm gonna make a Statue of Liberty disappear. Watch I'm trying to watch Wrestling Perhaps wrestling Not now the tv's off. He's just sitting there staring at it.
Yeah, um, you have the uh, the glick boys also The original those are those are the kid who was floating outside the window and they do some of that floating here too We all float down here, right? That's right. That's right. Oh, what did you think of that?
See that? Nope. Oh go ahead I'm asking about the new it trailer. I did see the new it trailer.
Um, I'm all in Yeah, it honestly it looks so much better than the dark tower Yeah, I could I'm like I am excited for the dark tower on principle sure. I don't think I'm gonna have fun watching that. Yeah Um So what do I think of what though? What do you think of that scene where the kids?
They go they're going to look for the the bus drivers like war pictures And they're about to get caught so they run off into the woods and then like one of the kids gets caught by uh, What we find out later is one of the vampires, right? And then he just like cracks a hole in the ice and just drops them into the icy water Yeah, and just drowns them and then like what did I follow them down the the the water a little bit and then breaks the ice again and pulls them out Just a little frozen in drowned dead boy. Did he kill them all the way? He killed them all the way.
Oh I don't know he did that. I don't know he's a vampire the kid turns into a vampire. So I don't know Yeah, I thought yeah, I kind of expected like he was gonna bring him to the brink of death And then you know pull the old bait and switch I can keep you alive forever my man Yeah, you know what I liked about this movie though. I like that Uh, we do get a decent amount of like backstory and character development from these people where like I know you know that the vampires are eventually going to take over the town essentially right there They're gonna take over most of the town So like but even so like when these people start becoming vampires and stuff you're kind of like That's weird.
We know so much about this guy and now all of that is sort of like Thrown to the wind because he's a vampire now, you know, right? Like there's the witch guy who's like who used to date uh, Samantha Mathis And he's like trying to get back with her and stuff and he he's like the head of sanitation in the town or whatever And he like drives the truck and he's got like an assistant friend and Um, you know, he's like there's a guy in town who's like kind of slow and we'll say and uh, he works for the sanitation department too And uh, I don't know you get to know like all this like little group of guys And then they like all become vampires. Um, yeah, well, that's what I mean That's what makes this whole idea work like you know the town's going away. So how do you create any sense of emotion?
Emotional connection from the audience, right? And that's I thought that they did a really good job of I don't know just establishing everybody that like all of this It's like it's town full of townies. We're in townie profile right now and uh, you know All of these people they have their own little little storylines that are happening Um No, I I just like that. I like that when once they do turn into vampires, you're kind of like, huh That's I kind of liked that one guy and now yeah, you know I do think in general it's a disservice to adapt to Stephen King thing and not retain Those those like characters like the way you're written.
Yeah, absolutely He he like one of his strengths is just going to great lengths to Flesh characters into people and just like sell you on the idea that this is a person granted He also loves to give people catch phrases. Yeah, uh, but what can you do? Right? So Um, I mean, I guess real people have a catch phrase is I have a catchphrase.
I guess. What's your catchphrase? Yeah, my catchphrase is I ain't mad So if someone says like I'm so sorry for your loss. I say I ain't mad and That's it And we're gonna be adding that to the soundboard also you want you want to get one clean.
Yeah, do a clean one I ain't mad Perfect. Yeah. Yeah, that was good. You want one more just for coverage.
Yeah, you want to do uh, you want to do like a different You know like an alt can you give me an alt? Yeah? I ain't mad Buddy Perfect. This is good.
It's just you want to have options. I think Yeah, now we have two options, right? Who else is in this town? You have uh, Andre?
What's the thing? Brower That's right. Um He's playing a playing a game a fellow. Yeah, he plays Matt Burke who in the beginning of this when uh, Rob Lowe's doing the voiceover about uh, Matt Burke here.
Um, he was a teacher from school and um, He's what do they call it? Um, when like everybody knows that he's gay, but they just like it's like a don't ask don't tell kind of thing Um, it's like a confirmed bachelor. I think it's called. Oh, yeah.
Yeah, right? That's exactly what it's called I'm a confirmed bachelor Which is so it's so old-timey It's so it's so cowardly. Yeah, it's like it's the whole town just being like We uh, we don't accept the fact that you're gay. Um, but we kind of know and uh, don't do it in front of us.
All right, great We don't accept that you're gay, but we really like you so we've come up with this term to make us feel better Right instead of just working through this with you Yeah, if you could never kiss or hold hands with man, that'd be good and we'll just call you a bachelor You're just that's fun. Yeah, you're just a guy who's on the prowl all the time for puss Yeah, except not except not for puss, but we all know that but we're also gonna forget it Um, and that's and that's been a fun little recap of homophobia. Yeah, so uh, Rob Lowe and um, Andre Broward, you know, they're like friends and stuff and throughout the movie they're like They're sort of they start discovering all this stuff kind of together. Um, The vampires and whatnot Um, uh, what'd you uh, what'd you make of that?
What'd you think of their relationship? It's kind of nice? Um, good friend Yeah, I like that it started off a bit contentious. Yeah, um, we worked through that like that's the shit You need you can't just have people popping out from behind changing screens and punching you once and leaving right gotta have some movement, you know Yeah, there's also uh, there's that woman who runs the uh, call it a B&B.
That's something it's like a little hotel house kind of thing Um, wait, which one is she she's the one that you made reference to in your intro the one who almost comes Oh, yeah, the old lady. Okay, that old lady having a big old orgasm a nice time A big gushy nice time right? Uh That is another thing the guy who is um, uh, slow Yeah, um, I believe the term we use on this show is simple simple. Yes, because they're too degrading a caricature to be Uh, what's the word to use even respectful language feels insulting sure that makes sense.
Yeah, um, no it doesn't Come on. Come on now that character. I thought that character was he looked kind of like Stephen king And if this movie was set like if this movie was made 30 years earlier 25 years earlier, I think that character would have been played by Stephen king Right. He'd be like this movie was made 30 years earlier.
Well, not not that movie. I'm talking about this movie. Okay. All right.
Come on. I got you No, I feel like I'm just having a bit of fun. Uh, no, I'm just I'm just messing around You're always you're always messing around. Mm-hmm.

I know I feel like with skylare though. It's more like skylare listen to me It's yeah, it's like it's lower and it's controlled I need you to do exactly what I tell you to when I tell you to do it and she's like no, okay Uh-uh, um, what's going on?
Hey, uh, I don't know what made me think of this But do you mind if I do a quick sidebar sure when I was walking my dog this morning at six in the morning because he woke me up Uh-huh So the way the apartment complex I live in is set up It's like there's you know just sections of grass in front of each apartment with like walkways dividing them Uh on a couple of these There are dispensers with plastic bags to pick up dog shit, which is very it's a nice touch um I Walk my dog birt Over by these so that I don't have to go get one and then remember where he shit smart Yeah, and also because of that. This is now just where he likes to go to the bathroom. Uh-huh. So I was standing out there He was being naughty.
He's just sort of pulling me around the square This woman this woman comes out of her apartment right right by where i'm standing and go So what are you just kind of wandering around here? I was like, yeah, I'm trying to get him to go to the bathroom She's like no, you're not you're doing this on purpose. You keep walking past my apartment I'm like, yeah, because i'm trying to get my dog to take a shit and I live right over here She's like you're trying to scare my dog That's it. Well what were you trying to scare her dog?
You're very much though. I was wearing a screen mask. Oh my I know. Sorry.
I should have given you a warning. Yeah, fucking spoiler warning Please because it's like a ghost's face. That's what's so scary about it. I know what's so scary He's a ghost face killer.
Oh god It's too scary ghost or scary ghost murders are scary ghost face scary, right? That's crazy that a woman accused me of trying to scare her dog Yeah, I mean six in the morning or six thirty. Yeah, that's that's no time to be scaring dogs I just also what what's the end game there? Like you scare the dog and then what then what happens?
And I laugh and laugh all the way to the bank. Yeah, lady. I can go back in your house. All right, jesus christ Hey lady, do you think i'm some sort of monsters ink for dogs?
Do you think I can use your dog's screams to power my city? Absolutely not Absolutely not. I'm not trying to scare your dog lady. I'm trying to scare you Ah She ever does that again.

Are you good man? I don't know a man can only take so much. You know man can only take so much Before you know something. I'll say I'll say this is a nice dog.
He got here. It would be a shame if something were to scare it No, jeez. I'll just start scaring her dog. I don't care.
Oh god. Yeah. Yeah, she's done What kind of dog is it? It's small my dog would make would make a meal of it.
Oh, jeez. Oh jeez, Dan That's right. I'm going to I'm going to teach my pit bull to be a fighting dog to scare this one dog Yeah, you just start a fucking dog fighting ring. This is how most people get into dog fighting It's one fucking one fussy nosey neighbor and that's all downhill I'm gonna if I ever see her again.
I'll say lady if you keep this up. I'll be forced to start a dog fighting ring Maybe then she'll finally get the message. It's your fault lady. I'd hate for something bad to happen in octagon What's the name of a UFC fighter do they have names?
Do they even bother naming them or do they go through them too quickly? They destroy them so fast. They're serious people. Yeah, they're like it's like t-bone and uh There is a man who's dead now named kimbo slice.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's an insane name But he also made his mark. He got into UFC because he got famous from like putting bum fights on youtube Yeah, he was just like fight drunk people. Yeah, I think he was He was like a bodyguard for a like a porn production company in the miami area Those are the scariest kinds of bodyguards.
Yeah, and and he was also he was backyard fighting people Some of them were just drunk folk. It's it wasn't like It's not good. None of it is good. I'm not gonna say that I think it's like slightly better than bum fights because bum fights is just like an exploitation of the whole situation Yeah, these guys are like they're fighting for money for themselves, you know, if that's like a thing You know, it's like whatever But that is how he got his start was fighting people in like backyards.
He seems like he must have been a really cool guy Yeah, um, who else is a fucking UFC guy? We're so right now. We're in craig tender tender loin tenderfoot Uh chocolate tell he's one 10 10 10 nimsky um Klaus uh vandervort Uh uh goonter goose off Goonter goose off his hands down my favorite welterweight. Uh, Walter wait the welterweight champion Oh, you know, you know which one of the fighters that I really love.
Who's that? Uh, peony Uh, day soledad Peony? Yeah Like a little like a little piano. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah Tiny piano It's got six keys. It's not even a full octave Uh Dan, what did you think of that part in the movie which movie sounds a lot 2004? Okay When brothel was in the jail cell and the guy in the jail cell next to him crawls through the vent to try and get at him Yeah, did he have a was his face warping the whole time? Yeah, I mean, it was like it was a bad special effect Oh, okay.
I couldn't tell if it was deliberate or not if he was a warp boy. No I couldn't tell if he uh if he was if he was like, uh The band paramord on the warp door. Yeah, yeah Thank you for following me into the dark anytime Yeah, it was kind of like um it was like that ex-files uh episode that guy tombs tombs Yeah, he's a creepy. Uh, yeah.
He's a king of them. He was a poisey in uh in green mile and uh in real life creepo Yes I like I want to marry this 17 year old so I can fuck her Fuck dog. You did not need to say the last part. Yeah.
We did not want to do though Yeah Yeah, what did I think of that? I don't know I thought it was how I could be that being very scary in the book Yeah, I think the the effect is obviously like cheesy and you know, it doesn't really work, right? I like the idea of it though. Yeah, like like the idea that he's like the vent the chef is like It's very small.
It doesn't fit a human body. So he's got to break like all of his bones to like wiggle into it Um and then the fact that like he's they find him the next day and he's like ripped out his wrists To try and drink his own blood. Um and that's how he died That's pretty fucked up. It's super fucked up.
Yeah. Yeah, no, that's a nice little detail And that's like that's the benefit of this a being made in 2004 and b being much closer to the source material presumably please We get so much fan mail. That's just copies of these books because people think we want to read them We just don't know where to find them. That is not the case.
We do not talk about the books. Yeah Um, yeah So Donald Southern when plays uh, Richard Strayker who in the original movie just finding out who Donald Southern when plays I know It's the James Mason character in the original movie. He's like he's the familiar or whatever Uh, he's the guy who sets everything up for you know the vampire. He's like his right hand man basically Yes He says uh, what's his name in Dracula like the actual Dracula like a like a ren field.
There we go Thank you. I almost said renfro, but I knew that wasn't right Yeah, red renfro king alum. Uh, I believe in the book or in the original Dracula his name is T or z typey Shout out to zagri tie brian Got his dick shut off to death By our By our boom gun. Yeah, oh stays funny over time.
Yeah, the best death that we've seen ever rest in pc typey. Yeah so um Yeah, I don't know one of the other things I really liked about this was the house itself, right? Um, it's this really old creepy mansion, right that sits on top of this hill and it seems like Everybody can see it from like every window. Yeah, no matter what window you're looking out of you can see that fucking creepy house Um, which is like, yeah, I don't know.
That's a great way to sort of Physically build a sense of dread and like inescapability absolutely like there's uh The original it doesn't go to great lengths to I don't know to make it like a like an ominous kind of place Um, but yeah, like the house just sitting there and people like people will walk out into like the street and just like Nobody else is around. They're like the only one who's not a vampire And they just like look up at that house and the house just fucking sitting there staring back at him. Mm-hmm. It's real good Yeah, what do you think of the kitchen scene in comparison to the one from the old one?
So in the original um What's the kid mark petries parents are sitting at the dinner table when uh james and and that nasvaratu show up and the nasvarado Nasvaratu That's a boy nasvaratu. Yeah He just sort of like three stuges there the parents heads together and kills them. It's like bong some bang two coconuts Yeah And then they die and then that's it. Um in this the father is already out of the picture or dead perhaps yeah, um, and another weird contemporization.
Yeah, and The the mother's the only one left. Um at this point the son Mark petry has like he's seen the vampires. He knows what's going on. He's been in the house um, he's got he's like trying to uh, I think he's trying to like warn his mom and uh, Then rucker howler shows up at the house and he's like crawling on the ceiling and he just grabs the mom's like hair like right at the root of the scalp and Spins her whole body around and the head stays in place and it's just like the whole body just spins and just breaks her right It breaks her neck Like just wraps it all around like just twists her head.
It's pretty fucked up Yeah, and like they go back into the house like later on and the mom is like laying there and like her body is face down and that head is face up Um pretty fucked up. Yeah, and pretty horrifying to see your mom die like that I'm on it. I think it I think it's much more effective than bonking two coconuts together Which is extra funny now knowing that that's what they were substituting We can't really do that. How can we express that without showing it?
Um, what about a little bit of three stooges? Yeah, yeah, so dumb So so how's this movie end? this movie uh it ends with Most of the town becoming vampires like almost everybody that we see even dr Fuck gets bitten when they're trying they're fighting a vampire. He gets bitten and uh, you know, he's eventually gonna turn into one Um he ends up falling through stairs and dying, but yes wait.
He died as a vampire. No. I think he died as a human being Yeah, yeah, yeah, but he did die. He did die.
Yeah, he did don't get dead Yeah, you check the records. You'll see that dr. Fuck is in the ground. Yeah, um So this ends with them they kill What's his name?
Rucker hauer? um, it's daylight and they coat down into like this little crawlspace area where he is and I don't know. I like to this scene too because like rucker howers like in the coffin, right? He opens his eyes.
He's like awake and like talking to Rob Lowe, but he can't do anything Like he can't get out of the coffin because it's like daylight and it's bright out and shit So he's kind of like helpless there and then Rob Lowe just fucking steaks him And he thinks that by staking the head of vampire that everybody else is going to go back to uh, you know being normal and stuff But there's no going back. It's they're all just vampires once she started vampin. That's it, baby Yeah, what is he? No, go ahead.
I was just gonna say he doesn't kill what's her name. It's Samantha Mathis. Yeah. Yeah, uh because She's his love interest in Uh, they're like what if yeah, he says like what if they change back right?
Yeah, um, yeah, he finds right They find her and she's dead and they're like, oh, we got a killer. He's like and at this point They've killed like 20 or 30 people. Yeah, it's like a little shopping montage of them It's set to freeze frame by j-i-gun. Yeah, and then they get to her and she he's like, uh, what if they turn back into people when uh, you know, when they When we killed the head vampire, um And then we see her we see her later on as a as a vampire her hair has like crimps in it Strange like a vampire.
Yeah, like a 2004 Uh, this scene right here between rob low and vampire, uh, Samantha Mathis I thought that was kind of nice, you know, it wasn't like Uh, they had like some sweet words where each other they're just like, uh, i'm a vampire you're a human like this You know, we could we could try and make it work, but uh, man, this is gonna be more difficult than Yeah, I like that more than in the original salem slot where she like where they're in South America at the end. Yeah, yeah Yeah, there's that stupid scene where they're having a conversation and she's got her eyes closed and it's just like oh my god No, open your eyes. We know it's gonna be a empire eyes. We know Yeah, yeah, yeah She's having a full conversation with her eyes.
I'm like, you know, no, this is weird. What you're doing is weird We know you're doing a thing. It's a bit we get it fucking, you know, and then she opens her eyes and oh, i'm a vampire Oh, I was not expecting that. I thought she'd be wearing color contact lenses.
Yeah, um, I I liked the um, that was at the real estate guy What's it? Larry Crockett? Um, his death because he's like he's the one who invited, um Uh, uh, you know, rucker hauer to salem slot, right? And vampires can't like come to town unless you invite him, I guess I didn't realize that I applied to state or city city limits as well Yeah, well it does Uh, it's a real pain in the ass when they're traveling.
They have to ask somebody when they're passing through any town Uh, that's too bad. You'll never see a vampire at that festival. No, so but he like the whole movie He's kind of a shithead and there's a fucking weird scene where he's like he's molesting his daughter, right? Yeah Like, oh, sorry to yod through that, but yeah I don't know.
Although at this point we we have a case to be bored of that. Yeah, sexual assault. Sexual assault sure Uh, now there's a scene where she's like she doesn't feel good. She's like sick, which means you know, she's coming down with vampirism And uh, and he's like, you know, he's he starts the scene by being like a father and just being like, oh, you're not feeling good and whatever And she's like, you know, very sick and then he starts like reaching down to like undo her shirt And uh, and she's like, no, not now or something like that.
Just really fucking, uh, yeah, I don't know It feels fucking gratuitous. It's because it's never addressed again. Um, it's really fucking creepy for like a second All it really does because his daughter is the one that the the slow guy thinks is his girlfriend Yes, the one that she fucked to piss off her dad. That's right.
All it does is sort of pay that off which not really and who cares Yeah, yeah, so um, yeah, and then there's that scene where uh, crocket is he goes to the like a landfill And there's a just a shit ton of vampires there. Um, his daughter being one of them Uh, the uh, simple guy being one of them not so simple anymore more of vampire Um, and he's like, uh, you know, turn me into a vampire, you know, I'll I'll I'll be in it I'll do it and they're like, no, we're just gonna eat you and then they just like all these vampires just like descend on him and That's just devour him. I like that. Yeah, that was that was pretty good.
Yeah. Yeah. No, this movie's not bad I just didn't like it. Oh, yeah, and then We the uh, the scene in the uh, the kitchen right in the original movie, right?
There was this whole deal where um, The vampire makes a deal with the priest right of his life for the kids life Um, sort of do the same thing here where um He the record how her makes james cronwell, uh, who plays the priest here, uh, drink his blood, right? So Cromwell becomes a vampire But like like sort of right? It's only sort of he's like, yeah, it's like this weird half-life. Yeah, I don't know He's like just undead or something So yeah, I I forgot they go into it in one of the dark tower books too, but I can't remember because yeah I definitely said on that episode that character is in the dark tower, but yeah So this whole movie is framed as roblow in the hospital telling retelling this whole story to a nurse that's there and um, so he's telling this whole story and um, the nurse goes to check on james cronwell and There's a pill over his face and he's dead and what we find out is that uh, uh, little mark pet tree Um, they he's the killer.
He he did it and the nurse catches him and you let's him go And then roblow dies from his injuries And that's how the movie ends pretty pretty bleak. Yeah, they kill all the vampires in town right or most of the vampires They just sort of leave town after that and they burn down the uh, the house And then they uh then they get james cronwell and I kill him and that's uh, that's uh, it's pretty much it That's all she wrote, baby. Yeah, yeah, um Yeah, let's do some segments cool segy. Oh that hurts my parts.
Hey. Oh that hurts my parts. Oh tummy Uh before we even get into it. I meant I said tommy.
I meant robbie bobby momon. Yeah, bobby momon. Oh he's back Hey, what bobby? What's your least favorite part of this movie?
Uh, it's bobby momon. Okay. Yeah, same All right get out of here you scamp. All right.
Bye bobby Always a treat having bobby momon stuff. I Working actor bobby momon friendship. Uh, what's your parts? Oh, what hurt my parts?
He says. Oh, dan what hurt your parts? Sorry, I'm not being fair. Uh Okay, uh, all right.
Obviously number one is always sexual assault Um, of course if we have to pick a number two here It's probably that part where uh roblow found that dead dog like spiked on the fucking gate there Yeah, always sad when a dog dies. Oh, I pour a little pooch. Yeah dead the hard way. Yeah I guess I um, I didn't there's a moment in the beginning There's a shitload of voiceover in the beginning, but when they're introducing on tree brower Uh, I think they said this I can't remember if it's because he's black or because he's gay But they describe him as being a handful of pepper thrown into a like a vat of salt a bucket of salt Like oh, I I think that's because he's black in like um predominantly white town.
Yeah, I mean either way I was like, I mean it works. I guess but also what are you trying to say? Yeah, yeah So that was weird. I didn't like that Donald Sutherland looked like Santa either.
I found it most distracting. Yeah, um, all right That's good. Yeah, let's do one. Let's do one.
Let's do that This is Danny formerly formerly known as shining moments. Yeah, do you have ears picked up? It's it's kind of tough. I I guess I liked to this movie.
I thought this was uh, uh, Kind of fun. It was interesting that it was I never felt like it was slow Which is good. There was um the scene where the who the brothers were the glick boys, right? They um their mother is in the morgue and there's a scene where she's like she's in the morgue She's got the sheet pulled over, right?
And then like she pulls the sheet off of herself and then like she does this move where she sort of like slides sideways off of the Uh, the table like a magic trick. Yeah, it's like a magic trick, right? But it looks like it's I don't know she's just like bent over backwards and like looking upside down Um, which is just really weird and yeah, it's like it's not I mean it's not much of anything right but it's also like that's a weird interesting choice Yeah, well, it's that's yeah I think the movie is kind of yeah I think the movie is kind of full of moments that are like that are just like off enough That are just that are like oh, this is this is a bit unsettling. Yeah, like a guy fitting into event That's a little too small for him to actually fit into it's just right Yeah, it's it's not so Like far left of center that it it's like goofy Yeah, which I think is important in a vampire movie because like or like any movie where the the monster is a monster Yeah, I think like something super natural.
Yeah, I think this movie works Uh for the most part as a horror movie like the heart like you know a lot of these movies can be cheesy and You know, they they try and go for something scary and it ends up being you know dumb and funny I think this for the most part just kind of lands. Yeah Yeah, it's pretty good. I thought it was very you know, what's a shot I really liked is the vampire boy from behind the hospital curtain Uh-huh that was that was a nice shot. Uh, yeah, like that.
Yeah, I really I'm gonna I think my shining moment will be the kitchen scene because it's such a vast improvement on one from the first movie And I I just like I don't know that whole thing is like I don't know making someone drink vampire blood is such a Such a simple obvious reversal of how things work that I don't know. I had not seen before since yeah, yeah, oh man. I forgot there's um Dr. Fuck right when he does get caught fucking that woman uh they get caught by the husband, right?
And he tries he's extorting money from him. He wants $10,000 from his doctor and uh, you know, he eventually gets the money and when he goes back to their trailer to drop the money off Um, we find out that she was in on it the whole time and you know, but also that the guy the husband is very sick He's gonna be a vampire soon and and so it's the guy the vampire who's gonna be turning into a vampire his wife and then they have like a little baby and the doctor like He he takes the baby like he he trades his car for the guy's shitty car Just so he could take the kid out of the house because uh, you know, they're just gonna be vampire soon Right thought that that was like an interesting. It's just like I don't know little like story a little moments kind of happening throughout this whole movie Yeah, and like especially because the groundwork they lay for that I do think that's a payoff for the fact that like the woman he's having a fair with was like someone he used to date Is that him or Rob Lowe? No, no, that's him.
Yeah, that's him right and the whole time she's like I should have I should have never left you or whatever So then the fact that he's like caring for her baby. It's a sort of yeah, weird. It closes that loop in a nice way Yeah, um In the book I'm working on now. There's this monkey monster king tropes Tros baby for simple guy.
Yeah simple guys You know guys simple guys fucking Some guys long. Yeah, some guys fucking oh by the way speaking of lawn morn man. There is a lawn morn man's director's cut I know that is I I want to say an extra 30 to 40 minutes long That I think we're gonna have to do a bonus episode Um about that soon. Oh, what are we gonna call that one?
Um, we've done hill of the king and pop of the king Um What's we're gonna have to think on this one. Yeah, we'll have to figure that out Um But we I mean it would be it would be a shame not to do that. Oh, yeah, I think we I think we got it It'll be nice to check back in with larry and jello Oh my god. Wait a sec.
Also just real quick going back to like one of my favorite moments in this movie when that uh bus driver like towards the end when he Goes out to his bus or because he hears like some noises and maybe some kids so he goes out there with a baseball bat And there's a bunch of vampire kids There's like I don't know eight or nine vampire kids that just start like crawling out from behind the seats and like up on the the ceiling of the bus And like oh, they're just like crawling towards the guy that that was oh, yeah, little creepy vampire kids are Extra extra yuk You heard it here the yukis Creepy little vampire kids are extra yuk. Yeah, put it on a shirt. I'm sure Um, what about uh evil guys owning antique stores Yeah, yeah, it's in there. It's uh, what about what about uh, oh shit.
What was I gonna say? I mean if you want her bar low traveled along distance just to die immediately. Yeah, he died pretty soon pretty quick Um, and then obviously the entire plot of sales lot is on sure. No, oh played out Uh, yeah writer character Um, that's about it.
I think that's all I got. Yeah, that's fine. Yeah Um, I think that brings us to uh, you know, go ahead Oh geez Welcome to where with slimmer rob. Do you see any slimmers in this movie?
Uh, yeah, there was a there's a scene Um When samantha math at the math is uh, she's working in the diner like she's a waitress, right? Yeah, and she's serving like roblow comes in this is early in the movie Uh, he's like he just kind of rolls into town and gets lunch samantha math is his waitress They start like, you know Flirting and talking and whatever and if you look in the background slimmers back there eating a bunch of hot dogs Oh, that's that's so weird because I missed that one But I did catch in that same scene. Um, the the big fat short order cook with the greasy apron is a slimmer And he's one of those pointy little paper hats. Huh?
Yeah, uh, also the uh, the bus driver is a slimmer Okay from from ghostbusters too. Oh, we forgot to mention that. Yeah, um, he's a slimmer with ptsd He's a slimmer that fought in well. No, because slimmers don't have legs.
So I don't think he could have been a slimmer Oh no, but that checks out because he's uh, he was in vietnam lost his legs became a slimmer Oh, he that's right because they say he died eating a hot dog or two right is lieutenant dana slimmer by virtue of the fact that he has no legs Will never know no, this is how we keep him coming back All right, bring it on rob This is say with me iamdb where we compare our opinion of the movie against the average is our name Um 8293 souls gave their opinion of this film more than I would have expected but here we are Uh, 6.2 out of 10 What do you think?
