WEBVTT 00:00:02.509 --> 00:00:04.030 You know what that sound means? It's another 00:00:04.030 --> 00:00:06.669 episode of Game for a Movie where we ask, are 00:00:06.669 --> 00:00:09.650 you game for a movie? My name is Mike. I'll be 00:00:09.650 --> 00:00:11.890 your host this evening. I'm joined by no one. 00:00:11.970 --> 00:00:15.289 That's okay. I am kicking off this month. It 00:00:15.289 --> 00:00:19.250 is October, after all, and it is Horror Month. 00:00:19.750 --> 00:00:23.489 Yes, I am going to try to do five, count them, 00:00:23.510 --> 00:00:28.910 five bad horror movies for this month. The first 00:00:28.910 --> 00:00:32.350 of which is going to kick off tonight. I'll tell 00:00:32.350 --> 00:00:34.969 you all about it, but first we got to do the 00:00:34.969 --> 00:00:37.670 thing we normally do and talk about what we are 00:00:37.670 --> 00:00:40.390 drinking. So before we moved to Charlotte, one 00:00:40.390 --> 00:00:43.369 of the first places I went to on a trip before 00:00:43.369 --> 00:00:46.869 we moved here was to Birdsong Brewing. Birdsong 00:00:46.869 --> 00:00:50.250 Brewing is a female owned brewery. Just giving 00:00:50.250 --> 00:00:53.159 you that little heads up in Charlotte. and they 00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:57.380 have a new ipa series this one is called cosmic 00:00:57.380 --> 00:01:00.200 debris and is definitely one of my favorites 00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:02.820 of their ipas i've had it several times i've 00:01:02.820 --> 00:01:05.099 tried all their ipas and this is the one i keep 00:01:05.099 --> 00:01:07.859 going back to unfortunately it's only a limited 00:01:07.859 --> 00:01:11.640 time ipa but cosmic debris is what it's called 00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:16.079 honestly i could down so many of these in a row 00:01:16.079 --> 00:01:19.859 and probably not even care that i threw up It 00:01:19.859 --> 00:01:21.799 also is funny because one of the things that's 00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:24.079 included in it is mango, and I'm not usually 00:01:24.079 --> 00:01:26.659 a big mango fan, but it does have passion fruit 00:01:26.659 --> 00:01:29.019 as well. Let me just read this description for 00:01:29.019 --> 00:01:32.560 you. Inspired by the Zappa Hops namesake, which 00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:35.359 is Frank Zappa, of course, Cosmic Debris takes 00:01:35.359 --> 00:01:38.540 you on a flavor journey as twisting as one of 00:01:38.540 --> 00:01:41.019 Frank's solos with distinct notes of passion 00:01:41.019 --> 00:01:44.400 fruit and mango. This experimental IPA will have 00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:48.719 you exclaiming, great googly moogly. I don't 00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:50.879 know if I've ever said great googly moogly before, 00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:56.219 but it's not an unjust description of this beer. 00:01:56.400 --> 00:01:58.400 So if you're in the Charlotte area or you can 00:01:58.400 --> 00:02:01.560 find Birdsong somewhere near you, try the Cosmic 00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:04.400 Debris if you can. I highly recommend it. You 00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:08.039 might say great googly moogly yourself. All right, 00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:09.919 now that I've addressed the beers in the room 00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:12.719 and the animals in the room, let's talk about 00:02:12.719 --> 00:02:15.770 our bad movie. So what I've been on a mission 00:02:15.770 --> 00:02:18.849 lately is to find bad movies that star great 00:02:18.849 --> 00:02:23.509 actors because I always think it's better when 00:02:23.509 --> 00:02:26.530 we all sit there and go, wait, what the fuck? 00:02:26.650 --> 00:02:29.610 Why are they in this movie? So I found a movie 00:02:29.610 --> 00:02:32.030 that is a Netflix original called The Silence, 00:02:32.409 --> 00:02:37.870 which stars Kiernan Shipka, Miranda Otto, and 00:02:37.870 --> 00:02:40.729 Stanley Tucci. So obviously we all recognize 00:02:40.729 --> 00:02:43.699 that last name of Stanley Tucci. I absolutely 00:02:43.699 --> 00:02:47.740 love Stanley Tucci. That is not unironic love. 00:02:47.860 --> 00:02:53.919 That is true love for Stanley Tucci. He does 00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:56.360 everything thrown his way. He's done action. 00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:59.780 He's done comedy. He's done horror. And he has 00:02:59.780 --> 00:03:02.460 a show on CNN called Searching for Italy that's 00:03:02.460 --> 00:03:05.879 pretty damn great, too. Stanley Tucci is a good... 00:03:06.380 --> 00:03:10.180 Good actor and a fun person, I think. He's definitely 00:03:10.180 --> 00:03:12.780 one of those people that if you ask me if you 00:03:12.780 --> 00:03:15.000 were to have dinner with any person, he's not 00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:16.800 number one on my list, but he's definitely somebody 00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:19.979 in my considerations where I go, yeah, he kind 00:03:19.979 --> 00:03:22.719 of seems like somebody I would love to get a 00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:25.159 drink or a meal with. So the other two names 00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:27.500 I mentioned were Kiernan Shipka and Miranda Otto. 00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:31.060 Kiernan Shipka is Sabrina in The Chilling Adventures 00:03:31.060 --> 00:03:34.379 of Sabrina. And Miranda Otto plays her Aunt Zelda 00:03:34.379 --> 00:03:38.080 on that same series. So if you've seen that series, 00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:40.740 you kind of know who these two are. Kiernan Shipka 00:03:40.740 --> 00:03:43.680 is definitely one of those up -and -coming actresses. 00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:45.659 And I say up -and -coming because she's done 00:03:45.659 --> 00:03:51.180 a lot as a breakout star, as a young kid. She's 00:03:51.180 --> 00:03:54.379 going to be doing a lot more. She also was a 00:03:54.379 --> 00:03:57.360 part of the FX anthology series called Feud. 00:03:57.979 --> 00:04:01.240 Funny enough, that also had Stanley Tucci in 00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:04.159 it. It's really weird because all of them were 00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:06.830 kind of... in something together, but not really 00:04:06.830 --> 00:04:10.270 all together. They all know each other and they 00:04:10.270 --> 00:04:13.289 all were connected to Netflix at some point as 00:04:13.289 --> 00:04:15.810 well. So it just kind of felt like they were 00:04:15.810 --> 00:04:19.050 all connected to it. Miranda Otto, by the way, 00:04:19.050 --> 00:04:22.290 was also Eowyn in the Lord of the Rings series, 00:04:22.470 --> 00:04:25.209 The Two Towers and The Return of the King. Just 00:04:25.209 --> 00:04:27.310 in case you're wondering where that name sounds 00:04:27.310 --> 00:04:30.490 familiar. This movie had some things going against 00:04:30.490 --> 00:04:33.350 it already right off the bat. First, I'll say 00:04:33.350 --> 00:04:35.870 that it's PG -13. and a movie like this probably 00:04:35.870 --> 00:04:39.050 shouldn't have been PG -13. But they were trying 00:04:39.050 --> 00:04:41.189 to get the biggest audience they could, as well 00:04:41.189 --> 00:04:43.149 as why they put it on Netflix in the first place. 00:04:43.550 --> 00:04:45.569 One of the things, though, that is funny about 00:04:45.569 --> 00:04:47.810 this is that Emily Blunt, of course, was the 00:04:47.810 --> 00:04:50.269 star of A Quiet Place, and she is the sister 00:04:50.269 --> 00:04:53.649 -in -law to Stanley Tucci. And we also have to 00:04:53.649 --> 00:04:57.189 address that The Silence was a book first, which 00:04:57.189 --> 00:05:00.730 was published in 2015, three years before A Quiet 00:05:00.730 --> 00:05:04.019 Place was even released. Now this film was filmed 00:05:04.019 --> 00:05:07.519 in 2017, which was probably after A Quiet Place 00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:11.240 started filming, but it got released a year after 00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:14.839 A Quiet Place, which definitely does some damage 00:05:14.839 --> 00:05:17.860 to it. So plot details, let's go. So the movie 00:05:17.860 --> 00:05:21.139 starts with a mountain range that's being dug 00:05:21.139 --> 00:05:23.759 into. We learn that it's the Appalachian Trail, 00:05:23.939 --> 00:05:27.019 and there's a cave system that might be hidden 00:05:27.019 --> 00:05:29.160 from the world that these people are trying to 00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:33.240 find, so they're digging into it. So this has 00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:35.980 already lost me in the fact that I just don't 00:05:35.980 --> 00:05:39.040 want to be in a cave at all. These people are 00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:41.199 celebrating because they found this secret entrance, 00:05:41.300 --> 00:05:43.939 it seems like. And they start hearing something. 00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:46.480 It's kind of like this chittering sound. They 00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:48.939 don't exactly know what it is. They have people 00:05:48.939 --> 00:05:51.839 talking to them in their helmets because they're 00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:54.339 like wearing, I guess, spacesuits. But really, 00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:57.800 it's just to like be able to breathe in the cave 00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:01.810 system if you go too far underground. So they're 00:06:01.810 --> 00:06:03.649 talking to the people in their helmets and then 00:06:03.649 --> 00:06:06.589 the chittering gets closer and they stop talking 00:06:06.589 --> 00:06:09.610 and all of a sudden these things start flying 00:06:09.610 --> 00:06:14.089 out and it's these like bird creatures. We don't 00:06:14.089 --> 00:06:15.810 even know exactly what they're called at this 00:06:15.810 --> 00:06:17.509 point, but they're like these bird creatures 00:06:17.509 --> 00:06:20.449 that can't see, but they obviously are attracted 00:06:20.449 --> 00:06:22.509 to sound because as soon as they start screaming, 00:06:22.569 --> 00:06:25.189 they start attacking the two people that opened 00:06:25.189 --> 00:06:29.319 the cave. That's it for the cave people. We assume 00:06:29.319 --> 00:06:31.620 they died, but we don't exactly know. Again, 00:06:31.699 --> 00:06:33.839 this is a PG -13 movie, so there's not a lot 00:06:33.839 --> 00:06:35.759 of deaths that have been confirmed because you 00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:40.699 just don't really see them. The opening credits 00:06:40.699 --> 00:06:44.899 start rolling, and this is over swarms of animals 00:06:44.899 --> 00:06:48.579 as well as technology building up and everything 00:06:48.579 --> 00:06:50.459 like that. It doesn't really make sense, but 00:06:50.459 --> 00:06:52.860 it's just kind of laying the groundwork for these 00:06:52.860 --> 00:06:57.160 random creatures that are a swarm. Then we end 00:06:57.160 --> 00:06:59.540 up at a high school, and Kiernan Shipka starts 00:06:59.540 --> 00:07:05.480 doing narration. She tells the audience how she 00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:08.620 lost her hearing not that long ago, so she doesn't 00:07:08.620 --> 00:07:11.139 speak with a deaf voice, just in case that's 00:07:11.139 --> 00:07:16.279 what you're imagining. But she is deaf. However, 00:07:16.500 --> 00:07:19.480 she has this special ability where she can sense 00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:21.899 when people are talking about her or when things 00:07:21.899 --> 00:07:23.860 are around her and that kind of thing, and this 00:07:23.860 --> 00:07:27.199 comes back later in the movie. But she can tell 00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:29.220 that these high school boys are making fun of 00:07:29.220 --> 00:07:33.000 her. Kiernan Shipka's character's name is Allie. 00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:36.439 So I'm going to refer to her as Allie the rest 00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:39.439 of the way. But Kiernan Shipka is Allie. And 00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:42.240 then we've got Hugh. Hugh's her father. That's 00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:45.300 obviously played by Stanley Tucci. Stanley Tucci 00:07:45.300 --> 00:07:49.040 is a construction worker. He has a lot of jobs 00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:52.689 that he just can't lose anymore. And he also, 00:07:52.730 --> 00:07:55.910 you can tell, is very overprotective of Allie 00:07:55.910 --> 00:07:59.310 ever since she lost her hearing. There also is 00:07:59.310 --> 00:08:01.509 a little brother who they never really refer 00:08:01.509 --> 00:08:05.110 to by name, but his name is Jude. The first time 00:08:05.110 --> 00:08:09.370 we see him, he is playing Wave Race, which is 00:08:09.370 --> 00:08:13.569 a N64 game that I had when I was a kid. And he's 00:08:13.569 --> 00:08:15.589 playing it without a controller. He's using his 00:08:15.589 --> 00:08:18.870 hands to move the jet ski and everything like 00:08:18.870 --> 00:08:20.509 that. And that's just a nerd thing I wanted to 00:08:20.509 --> 00:08:23.939 point out. The other characters we kind of meet 00:08:23.939 --> 00:08:26.519 at this point in time is Kelly, who is Miranda 00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:29.600 Otto. She is the mother. And then there's Lynn, 00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:34.700 who is the grandmother who lives with them. Kelly 00:08:34.700 --> 00:08:38.059 calls Hugh before he comes back from work and 00:08:38.059 --> 00:08:40.919 is just kind of saying how Allie got made fun 00:08:40.919 --> 00:08:44.139 of at school again and also that they need to 00:08:44.139 --> 00:08:48.960 get Lynn's meds. Hugh is trying not to make a 00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:51.919 big deal about Allie's situation. Or at least 00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:54.580 that's what Kelly wants him to do because obviously 00:08:54.580 --> 00:08:58.139 as the overprotective father, he gets a little 00:08:58.139 --> 00:09:00.159 worked up about people making fun of his daughter. 00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:03.000 Meanwhile, Allie is walking home from school. 00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:07.399 She's walking home and this guy Rob comes up 00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:09.860 and Rob's a high schooler as well. They obviously 00:09:09.860 --> 00:09:12.940 have a little something going on. Rob is talking 00:09:12.940 --> 00:09:15.659 to her with sign language and we learn later 00:09:15.659 --> 00:09:18.500 in the film that Rob has been learning sign language 00:09:18.500 --> 00:09:21.700 to get close to Allie. And they definitely have 00:09:21.700 --> 00:09:23.899 a little relationship going on, but they're just 00:09:23.899 --> 00:09:27.519 in the early parts of it. I'm going to try to 00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:30.299 skip the unimportant parts. Basically, there's 00:09:30.299 --> 00:09:32.299 a whole conversation with Hugh and Allie. That's 00:09:32.299 --> 00:09:35.200 fine. There's a whole conversation with Kelly 00:09:35.200 --> 00:09:39.059 and Lynn talking about Lynn doesn't want the 00:09:39.059 --> 00:09:42.440 kids to see that she's taking meds. That's all 00:09:42.440 --> 00:09:44.500 you really need to know at this point. So that's 00:09:44.500 --> 00:09:48.509 like 15 minutes I saved you from already. We 00:09:48.509 --> 00:09:50.629 basically go to the next scene where Allie wakes 00:09:50.629 --> 00:09:52.870 up in the middle of the night, kind of sensing 00:09:52.870 --> 00:09:55.610 that something's wrong. She goes to the front 00:09:55.610 --> 00:09:58.029 room and the whole family is watching the news 00:09:58.029 --> 00:10:00.769 where they see these things have broken out of 00:10:00.769 --> 00:10:03.210 the ground. They're attacking people in cities. 00:10:03.549 --> 00:10:06.710 So Hugh is kind of, hey, we need to get everybody 00:10:06.710 --> 00:10:10.889 in the car. We're going to leave the city. I 00:10:10.889 --> 00:10:13.649 will say this movie does a lot wrong. Don't get 00:10:13.649 --> 00:10:16.029 me wrong. But the one thing I think they do right 00:10:16.029 --> 00:10:18.830 is the fact that they address that these things 00:10:18.830 --> 00:10:22.590 are attacking the cities first because it makes 00:10:22.590 --> 00:10:24.629 sense. That's what the loud parts of the world 00:10:24.629 --> 00:10:28.490 are, are cities. So Hugh makes the decision that 00:10:28.490 --> 00:10:30.289 the whole family is going to get in the van. 00:10:30.570 --> 00:10:33.009 They're going to get Uncle Glenn and they're 00:10:33.009 --> 00:10:36.629 going to drive off to the middle of nowhere. 00:10:37.350 --> 00:10:40.289 Uncle Glenn is also not a real uncle. He's just 00:10:40.289 --> 00:10:42.919 a friend that. he has had since high school, 00:10:43.100 --> 00:10:47.860 that they all refer to as Uncle Glenn. Uncle 00:10:47.860 --> 00:10:49.779 Glenn basically just says, I need to get some 00:10:49.779 --> 00:10:51.899 supplies, and then we'll meet here, and then 00:10:51.899 --> 00:10:54.940 go from there. Uncle Glenn's supplies are like 00:10:54.940 --> 00:10:58.059 40 guns, but you know, whatever, it's not that 00:10:58.059 --> 00:11:02.200 big a deal. So they head out, we see them leave, 00:11:02.419 --> 00:11:05.080 and then it flashes to another scene of people 00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:09.080 stuck on a subway car. The subway car, it's obvious 00:11:09.080 --> 00:11:12.450 they've been there for a while. And one of the 00:11:12.450 --> 00:11:16.090 people that's there is a mother with a baby. 00:11:16.789 --> 00:11:19.450 They've all been told not to make noise and the 00:11:19.450 --> 00:11:23.009 baby starts crying. So one of the people grabs 00:11:23.009 --> 00:11:25.929 the baby and is about to throw them off the subway 00:11:25.929 --> 00:11:29.269 car when the mom's just like, no, no, stop it. 00:11:29.309 --> 00:11:32.009 I'll go with her. I'll go. It's fine. And walks 00:11:32.009 --> 00:11:34.870 out of the subway car. And basically the baby 00:11:34.870 --> 00:11:37.370 is quiet for a while. They walk for a little 00:11:37.370 --> 00:11:40.490 bit and then the baby starts crying again. And 00:11:40.490 --> 00:11:43.549 you hear the things chittering and she goes, 00:11:43.610 --> 00:11:46.649 no, no. And it flashes away because obviously 00:11:46.649 --> 00:11:49.250 it's a PG -13 movie. They can't show you that 00:11:49.250 --> 00:11:53.090 the mother and baby died. That's it from that 00:11:53.090 --> 00:11:55.730 scene, by the way, that never comes back into 00:11:55.730 --> 00:11:57.730 play again. That just wanted to show you that 00:11:57.730 --> 00:12:00.350 anything can happen. Babies are probably going 00:12:00.350 --> 00:12:02.409 to die because these creatures are attracted 00:12:02.409 --> 00:12:06.240 by sound. So we go back to the family as they're 00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:08.679 driving in two separate cars. Uncle Glenn and 00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:11.980 Jude are in one car and the rest of the family 00:12:11.980 --> 00:12:17.379 are in a van that is heading down the road. Allie 00:12:17.379 --> 00:12:20.480 is sitting there with their dog Otis. Otis is 00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:23.440 kind of a whiny boy and a barky boy. So I don't 00:12:23.440 --> 00:12:26.620 know why they bring him with because let's just 00:12:26.620 --> 00:12:29.759 face it, he's going to bark. But at the same 00:12:29.759 --> 00:12:31.440 time, I'm also happy that they brought him with 00:12:31.440 --> 00:12:33.379 because I don't want to see any dogs die today. 00:12:34.779 --> 00:12:38.120 Allie is also texting on this big old iPad so 00:12:38.120 --> 00:12:41.419 probably that the viewers can also see what she's 00:12:41.419 --> 00:12:47.299 saying. She's texting Rob and learning that Rob 00:12:47.299 --> 00:12:49.620 is going to stay put. He's going to stay with 00:12:49.620 --> 00:12:51.299 his family and they're just going to stay in 00:12:51.299 --> 00:12:54.279 their house and not go anywhere. Because she 00:12:54.279 --> 00:12:56.519 was trying to convince him to come with because 00:12:56.519 --> 00:12:59.740 they're going to the middle of nowhere and they 00:12:59.740 --> 00:13:03.919 lived in a big city. Not quite New York, but 00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:07.460 kind of there. Then after she's done texting, 00:13:07.580 --> 00:13:09.980 she kind of goes to the news. And this is a constant 00:13:09.980 --> 00:13:14.259 thing where she goes to the news. She learns 00:13:14.259 --> 00:13:16.720 that these creatures, they've called them Vesps 00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:23.519 because they swarm. And Vesps is a play on. It's 00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:25.620 not quite the same word, but it's Spanish for 00:13:25.620 --> 00:13:28.379 wasp. That's kind of what we learned. So these 00:13:28.379 --> 00:13:31.820 things are called Vesps. Ignoring a couple scenes 00:13:31.820 --> 00:13:34.759 that are not important. There's a part where 00:13:34.759 --> 00:13:37.659 basically Jude just kind of decides that he wants 00:13:37.659 --> 00:13:39.580 to go back with the family. He just misses them 00:13:39.580 --> 00:13:42.679 and doesn't want this. He gets scared pretty 00:13:42.679 --> 00:13:45.500 much. He just doesn't want to die without being 00:13:45.500 --> 00:13:48.620 with his real family. He was all cool with like 00:13:48.620 --> 00:13:50.259 riding with Uncle Glenn because he thought he 00:13:50.259 --> 00:13:52.019 was cool and had all these guns and everything 00:13:52.019 --> 00:13:54.220 like that. But now he's just kind of like, I 00:13:54.220 --> 00:13:56.100 just want to be with family and everything like 00:13:56.100 --> 00:13:58.629 that. So he hops in the car. You can also kind 00:13:58.629 --> 00:14:01.190 of tell that Uncle Glenn is a loose cannon. Like 00:14:01.190 --> 00:14:04.809 he's a little, he's going to rush into a fight 00:14:04.809 --> 00:14:06.970 or something like that. You know, you can kind 00:14:06.970 --> 00:14:11.590 of tell that at this point. They get stuck in 00:14:11.590 --> 00:14:14.210 traffic that's not moving. So Uncle Glenn decides 00:14:14.210 --> 00:14:16.730 that they're going to take a shortcut to the 00:14:16.730 --> 00:14:19.169 middle of nowhere and they're going to go off 00:14:19.169 --> 00:14:23.529 -roading. His car is built for that. The van 00:14:23.529 --> 00:14:26.159 is not. So he's just kind of like, just follow 00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:28.320 me and I'll help you if you get stuck or anything 00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:31.779 like that. This is the point where I'm just like, 00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:34.080 he is a loose cannon. Something's going to happen. 00:14:34.159 --> 00:14:35.759 Like he's going to do something or something 00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:37.559 like that. There's going to be something crazy 00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:40.480 that happens along the road. And of course, as 00:14:40.480 --> 00:14:43.419 soon as I say that, these deer rush in front 00:14:43.419 --> 00:14:46.559 of Uncle Glenn's car and he tries to get out 00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:51.149 of the way and flips his car off the road. and 00:14:51.149 --> 00:14:53.429 not just flips once or twice or anything like 00:14:53.429 --> 00:14:56.750 that. He flips like nine or ten times. He is 00:14:56.750 --> 00:15:02.710 off the road, and his car is smashed. Hugh stops 00:15:02.710 --> 00:15:07.149 the van, gets out, and is all ready to help Uncle 00:15:07.149 --> 00:15:09.850 Glenn. So he rushes down to the car where Uncle 00:15:09.850 --> 00:15:15.389 Glenn is, and basically Glenn's leg is pinned. 00:15:15.570 --> 00:15:18.419 He can't get him out. He tries and he tries. 00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:20.960 He grabs a tire iron, can't pull the door open. 00:15:21.019 --> 00:15:25.019 He can't get him out. And Glenn asks him for 00:15:25.019 --> 00:15:29.200 his guns. Hey, can you get me my guns? Get me 00:15:29.200 --> 00:15:32.139 my guns. Get me my guns. And Hugh finally is 00:15:32.139 --> 00:15:36.059 just like, okay, fine. Grabs the guns, gives 00:15:36.059 --> 00:15:37.500 it to him. And he's just like, what do you want 00:15:37.500 --> 00:15:40.419 those for? And Glenn goes, I'm going to shoot 00:15:40.419 --> 00:15:43.559 you if you don't take your family and go. Glenn 00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:47.149 knows that he's stuck. And so Hugh kind of like 00:15:47.149 --> 00:15:51.870 gives in and goes, okay, fine. I'm going to go 00:15:51.870 --> 00:15:55.230 get help and I'm coming back. That's what's happening. 00:15:56.590 --> 00:16:00.470 So Hugh gets back to the car. He starts it and 00:16:00.470 --> 00:16:05.389 is ready to go get help for Glenn. And he's talking 00:16:05.389 --> 00:16:08.990 with the family. And all of a sudden, Allie gets 00:16:08.990 --> 00:16:12.250 this strange, I won't say premonition, but she 00:16:12.250 --> 00:16:15.539 gets this strange feeling. And she knows. Hey, 00:16:15.620 --> 00:16:20.980 stop the car. And so Hugh stops it, just automatically 00:16:20.980 --> 00:16:24.740 off the bat stops it. And Otis starts barking 00:16:24.740 --> 00:16:27.320 at something. We don't know what exactly, but 00:16:27.320 --> 00:16:31.620 he just starts barking. Then the first Vesp. 00:16:31.950 --> 00:16:34.990 crashes into the car and the next one and the 00:16:34.990 --> 00:16:36.789 next one and the next one they're all swarming 00:16:36.789 --> 00:16:39.009 and they all crash into the car Otis can't stop 00:16:39.009 --> 00:16:41.230 barking he's just barking barking barking barking 00:16:41.230 --> 00:16:44.529 and so they all know they're in trouble because 00:16:44.529 --> 00:16:49.570 Otis is barking at them and they hear it Glenn 00:16:49.570 --> 00:16:54.230 starts hearing the animals or he starts hearing 00:16:54.230 --> 00:16:56.549 Otis and he starts hearing the vests but go crazy 00:16:56.549 --> 00:16:59.269 and so Glenn does the only thing he thinks he 00:16:59.269 --> 00:17:02.669 can do remember he's in the ditch All alone. 00:17:02.990 --> 00:17:06.549 And so he starts firing his gun. Boom, boom, 00:17:06.569 --> 00:17:09.390 boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. And all the Vesps 00:17:09.390 --> 00:17:12.210 start going away. Because the guns are louder 00:17:12.210 --> 00:17:16.750 than Otis is barking. So the Vesps start attacking 00:17:16.750 --> 00:17:22.970 Glenn. And to save his family, Hugh rushes to 00:17:22.970 --> 00:17:26.309 the back of the van. Grabs the dog. Grabs his 00:17:26.309 --> 00:17:30.369 face. And stops him for barking. And then opens 00:17:30.369 --> 00:17:35.349 the back door and lets Otis run free. And we 00:17:35.349 --> 00:17:42.269 don't see Otis anymore. I'm going to take a long 00:17:42.269 --> 00:17:51.250 sigh. Otis was the best character. Otis deserved 00:17:51.250 --> 00:17:56.109 better. Damn it. It's not his fault he's a dog 00:17:56.109 --> 00:17:59.640 and he just barks at whatever. They never show 00:17:59.640 --> 00:18:01.619 you his death, but you just assume that he's 00:18:01.619 --> 00:18:05.019 dead. And they are monsters. I hate this family. 00:18:05.140 --> 00:18:07.299 I don't care what happens to the rest of them. 00:18:07.339 --> 00:18:14.160 Otis deserved to live. And I guess Glenn. Glenn's 00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:18.819 fine, I guess. He deserved to live too. So the 00:18:18.819 --> 00:18:21.299 Vesps, after they kill Glenn, and most likely 00:18:21.299 --> 00:18:26.420 after they kill Otis, you monsters, are... just 00:18:26.420 --> 00:18:28.359 hanging in that area. Cause they just kind of 00:18:28.359 --> 00:18:31.039 assume there's more food in the area. So the 00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:34.220 family camps out overnight in the car. They're 00:18:34.220 --> 00:18:37.440 stuck. Now it seems like a very good time to 00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:39.960 take a little break in between all the action. 00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:43.019 And the only reason I'm taking a break is to 00:18:43.019 --> 00:18:46.240 give a shout out to our friends that got the 00:18:46.240 --> 00:18:51.099 bad movie guests. Correct. And that is our friends 00:18:51.099 --> 00:18:55.549 at movies for real pod. That is movies. for the 00:18:55.549 --> 00:19:01.109 number real R E E L pod basically is the host 00:19:01.109 --> 00:19:03.890 of the movies for your podcast and a father who 00:19:03.890 --> 00:19:07.190 loves films. Uh, go follow him on X slash Twitter 00:19:07.190 --> 00:19:09.210 slash whatever the fuck we're calling it still, 00:19:09.410 --> 00:19:14.009 uh, at movies for real pod. This is where he 00:19:14.009 --> 00:19:16.450 releases all of his thoughts on movies, TV shows, 00:19:16.549 --> 00:19:20.109 everything like that. Recently, uh, I see some, 00:19:20.230 --> 00:19:22.710 I guess posts cause we don't call them tweets 00:19:22.710 --> 00:19:26.619 anymore about Gen V. which is the boys' spinoff 00:19:26.619 --> 00:19:29.400 show, one I'm definitely interested in watching 00:19:29.400 --> 00:19:32.180 that I haven't yet. So definitely go check them 00:19:32.180 --> 00:19:36.859 out. Movies4RealPod, at Movies4RealPod, host 00:19:36.859 --> 00:19:39.680 of the Movies4Real podcast, and a father who 00:19:39.680 --> 00:19:43.200 loves film. So there you go. Enjoy that. Thank 00:19:43.200 --> 00:19:45.500 you for playing along with our game. They play 00:19:45.500 --> 00:19:49.059 along every time, and I'm finally really glad 00:19:49.059 --> 00:19:51.160 to say that they won. They were the first ones 00:19:51.160 --> 00:19:55.359 to guess the silence correct. So there you go. 00:19:56.740 --> 00:19:59.640 All right, we're back. Family's stuck in car. 00:19:59.880 --> 00:20:03.119 Glenn and Otis dead. Vests are hanging out around 00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:08.640 there. So Hugh gets out of the car basically 00:20:08.640 --> 00:20:12.599 to find them a time where they can escape. What 00:20:12.599 --> 00:20:14.680 he comes up with a plan to do, he sneaks away 00:20:14.680 --> 00:20:21.700 slowly to light Glenn's car on fire. Basically... 00:20:22.299 --> 00:20:25.160 This makes a lot of noise. And hopefully, when 00:20:25.160 --> 00:20:27.200 it finally gets to the point, it's going to explode 00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:31.619 and kill some of them. And I say that because 00:20:31.619 --> 00:20:33.819 that's exactly what happens. He does light the 00:20:33.819 --> 00:20:36.559 car on fire. All the Vesps start going in that 00:20:36.559 --> 00:20:39.759 area. And the car finally explodes and takes 00:20:39.759 --> 00:20:42.359 out some of them. There's a whole situation where 00:20:42.359 --> 00:20:46.660 he kind of gets stuck in no man's land. Nothing 00:20:46.660 --> 00:20:48.480 really happens. It's not that creepy. It's not 00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:50.940 that scary. The only thing I'll say is that... 00:20:51.109 --> 00:20:54.009 one of the Vesps you see close up and it's kind 00:20:54.009 --> 00:20:58.869 of, it's bad CGI. Um, I can't say anything else 00:20:58.869 --> 00:21:01.490 about it because it's just, it's just bad. Like 00:21:01.490 --> 00:21:03.150 you look at these and you're not scared of them. 00:21:03.390 --> 00:21:06.190 That's what it is. So he's able to get to the 00:21:06.190 --> 00:21:10.369 car and basically they come to the conclusion 00:21:10.369 --> 00:21:12.089 that they're not even going to be able to drive. 00:21:12.390 --> 00:21:14.890 They just need to walk because that's going to 00:21:14.890 --> 00:21:19.029 be quieter. After they start walking for a while, 00:21:19.069 --> 00:21:21.799 it becomes nightfall. and they find this cabin 00:21:21.799 --> 00:21:24.200 in the middle of the woods. It has a fence around 00:21:24.200 --> 00:21:27.500 it, and more specifically, it has these bells 00:21:27.500 --> 00:21:31.720 on it. So if you open the gates, it's going to 00:21:31.720 --> 00:21:33.400 ring these bells, and people are going to know 00:21:33.400 --> 00:21:36.279 that you're there, or the Vesps are going to 00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:39.599 come and attack you. And as soon as they try 00:21:39.599 --> 00:21:42.000 opening the door, the bell rings a little bit. 00:21:42.039 --> 00:21:46.180 They were being quiet enough. This woman comes 00:21:46.180 --> 00:21:49.599 out and starts yelling at them. She is also holding 00:21:49.599 --> 00:21:52.539 a shotgun and basically just yells at them, get 00:21:52.539 --> 00:21:55.279 off my property, get the hell off my property, 00:21:55.400 --> 00:22:01.680 and fires the gun into the air. I know I said 00:22:01.680 --> 00:22:03.200 there was a fence around this thing, but there's 00:22:03.200 --> 00:22:09.019 not a fence in the air. We all know these things 00:22:09.019 --> 00:22:12.000 attack sound. We all know they like silence. 00:22:12.880 --> 00:22:16.480 So why the fuck are you yelling? Get the hell 00:22:16.480 --> 00:22:19.359 off my property and fire your gun in the air. 00:22:19.480 --> 00:22:22.980 The Vesps immediately swarm down. This is hysterical, 00:22:22.980 --> 00:22:25.559 by the way. The Vesps immediately swarm down 00:22:25.559 --> 00:22:27.920 and start attacking her, and she's trying to 00:22:27.920 --> 00:22:30.400 back away as they're attacking her, and she falls 00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:34.880 into a well. I wish I was joking, but that's 00:22:34.880 --> 00:22:38.720 exactly what happens. So the old lady that lived 00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:40.900 in this cabin is now dead because she fell down 00:22:40.900 --> 00:22:44.630 a well. They're still behind the fence, so they 00:22:44.630 --> 00:22:47.049 decide that Hugh is going to go through this 00:22:47.049 --> 00:22:50.009 pipe that can get into the area so he can sneak 00:22:50.009 --> 00:22:52.410 in and kind of make sure that nobody else is 00:22:52.410 --> 00:22:54.950 there. As soon as he goes through the pipe, you 00:22:54.950 --> 00:22:59.190 see that a snake is in the pipe, but the snake 00:22:59.190 --> 00:23:02.190 doesn't attack at that point. Hugh gets through, 00:23:02.289 --> 00:23:04.710 and he's just kind of, yes, we're good, come 00:23:04.710 --> 00:23:07.109 on through. The whole family then decides to 00:23:07.109 --> 00:23:10.849 go through the pipe. The little kid Jude is leading 00:23:10.849 --> 00:23:13.339 the way. And he gets the snake and the snake 00:23:13.339 --> 00:23:16.980 is staring at him. And of course, it's a rattlesnake. 00:23:17.059 --> 00:23:20.140 So the rattlesnake starts rattling its tail. 00:23:22.440 --> 00:23:27.660 And he starts freaking out. Well, then the vesps 00:23:27.660 --> 00:23:30.720 come up one side of the pipe and start attacking 00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:32.799 the rattlesnake because it's making enough noise 00:23:32.799 --> 00:23:37.240 that... They can attack it. And then the other 00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:39.039 Vesps are trying to come from the other side 00:23:39.039 --> 00:23:41.640 and they run into the mom and they start biting 00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:45.880 her leg. So the Vesps are on both sides of the 00:23:45.880 --> 00:23:50.019 pipes. The family is stuck in the pipe, except 00:23:50.019 --> 00:23:52.559 for Hugh, who comes up with the brilliant decision. 00:23:52.740 --> 00:23:54.720 And this is a brilliant decision. Don't get me 00:23:54.720 --> 00:23:57.359 wrong. This is a brilliant decision. But for 00:23:57.359 --> 00:23:59.859 whatever reason in this movie, it's unintentionally 00:23:59.859 --> 00:24:03.279 hilarious. He turns on a wood chipper that happens 00:24:03.279 --> 00:24:05.609 to be in the yard. And the wood chipper makes 00:24:05.609 --> 00:24:08.990 enough noises that the Vesps swing out of the 00:24:08.990 --> 00:24:13.170 pipes and start flying directly into the wood 00:24:13.170 --> 00:24:16.450 chipper. And I don't know why. It's just so fucking 00:24:16.450 --> 00:24:19.269 funny. And it's a smart decision because he was 00:24:19.269 --> 00:24:21.650 like making noise to get them away from his family. 00:24:21.750 --> 00:24:24.230 And I get it. It makes sense in this situation. 00:24:24.549 --> 00:24:28.230 But for whatever fucking reason, this is hysterical. 00:24:28.690 --> 00:24:32.069 Because all these Vesps just fly in. No thoughts. 00:24:32.269 --> 00:24:35.619 All this thrown to the wind. Fly straight into 00:24:35.619 --> 00:24:40.220 the wood chipper. And all of them are gone pretty 00:24:40.220 --> 00:24:44.579 much that quickly. So the family's able to get 00:24:44.579 --> 00:24:46.779 through the pipe because the rattlesnake was 00:24:46.779 --> 00:24:50.819 killed by the vesps. The other vesps flew into 00:24:50.819 --> 00:24:52.920 the wood chipper. So the entire family's able 00:24:52.920 --> 00:24:57.059 to get into this cabin. And they learn that mom 00:24:57.059 --> 00:24:59.319 is in bad shape. They're going to watch overnight, 00:24:59.480 --> 00:25:02.819 but she has a really big, deep cut on her leg. 00:25:02.880 --> 00:25:05.750 She's not doing well. So all of them get their 00:25:05.750 --> 00:25:07.890 own rooms and everything like that, except for 00:25:07.890 --> 00:25:10.369 Grandma's on the couch and Jude's on the couch. 00:25:10.509 --> 00:25:13.710 They get two different couches, but for whatever 00:25:13.710 --> 00:25:16.130 reason, they give Allie her own room and then 00:25:16.130 --> 00:25:18.990 they gave Grandma a couch. I don't know why, 00:25:19.269 --> 00:25:22.329 but that's just what happened, I guess. Who knows? 00:25:23.990 --> 00:25:28.309 When they get there, Allie opens up her iPad 00:25:28.309 --> 00:25:34.259 and is able to FaceTime Rob. Uh, when Glenn was 00:25:34.259 --> 00:25:40.519 pinned down, mom was trying to call for help 00:25:40.519 --> 00:25:43.740 and she wasn't able to get to anybody. Like literally 00:25:43.740 --> 00:25:47.400 the lines were down yet. Allie's able to call 00:25:47.400 --> 00:25:51.440 Rob on this, not only call him, but like voice 00:25:51.440 --> 00:25:54.240 call him, you know, seeing the video and everything 00:25:54.240 --> 00:25:58.380 like that. Rob is talking about the vests. He 00:25:58.380 --> 00:26:00.819 also learned about this place called the refuge. 00:26:01.769 --> 00:26:03.930 And they're talking about all of that because 00:26:03.930 --> 00:26:09.269 Rob's parents are dead. And Rob, basically, Allie 00:26:09.269 --> 00:26:11.990 goes, I can tell you where we're going. You can 00:26:11.990 --> 00:26:13.769 find us and everything like that. And he goes, 00:26:13.849 --> 00:26:15.789 no, I'm going to try to find this refuge. I've 00:26:15.789 --> 00:26:18.329 heard this is where people are safe. And then 00:26:18.329 --> 00:26:21.349 all of a sudden the connection dies. And we don't 00:26:21.349 --> 00:26:24.529 know if basically he's kind of like looking around 00:26:24.529 --> 00:26:26.970 like, oh, shit, oh, shit, oh, shit. So we don't 00:26:26.970 --> 00:26:29.069 know if Rob lives or dies or whatever at this 00:26:29.069 --> 00:26:32.960 point. I think we can all guess what happens. 00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:36.700 But, you know, at this moment, we don't know 00:26:36.700 --> 00:26:39.319 if he lived, died, who lives, who dies, who tells 00:26:39.319 --> 00:26:42.740 your story. Right, Hamilton? So Rob is out of 00:26:42.740 --> 00:26:45.940 the picture for right now. Next morning, we learn 00:26:45.940 --> 00:26:48.220 that mom is in bad shape. So they need to get 00:26:48.220 --> 00:26:53.700 antibiotics. Antibiotics. Antibiotics. Antibiotics. 00:26:53.700 --> 00:26:56.319 My God, I wish I could speak. Sometimes I wish 00:26:56.319 --> 00:26:58.960 I could speak so I could be unstoppable. So they're 00:26:58.960 --> 00:27:04.400 going to get antibiotics. they decide that Hugh 00:27:04.400 --> 00:27:07.599 and Allie are going to go. And I think it's because 00:27:07.599 --> 00:27:09.539 they're just the biggest names in the movie. 00:27:09.619 --> 00:27:11.859 I also think it's because they need to drive 00:27:11.859 --> 00:27:15.000 this next part of the story. And another thing, 00:27:15.079 --> 00:27:20.019 because Allie is deaf. They all know sign language 00:27:20.019 --> 00:27:23.000 and speak in sign language. But unlike a quiet 00:27:23.000 --> 00:27:26.119 place where it's all quiet and you don't get 00:27:26.119 --> 00:27:28.789 any words or anything like that, There's some 00:27:28.789 --> 00:27:30.390 times where they're signing things, but they're 00:27:30.390 --> 00:27:34.210 also talking out loud. So they'll be, like, signing, 00:27:34.430 --> 00:27:37.309 like, what the hell was that? But they'll also 00:27:37.309 --> 00:27:40.549 go, what the hell was that? And whisper talk 00:27:40.549 --> 00:27:44.009 it while they're signing everything. And it just 00:27:44.009 --> 00:27:47.049 drives me insane because I was fully prepared 00:27:47.049 --> 00:27:49.789 to watch a movie with subtitles. Okay, I'm going 00:27:49.789 --> 00:27:52.950 to talk in real voice now. prepared to watch 00:27:52.950 --> 00:27:54.809 a movie with subtitles that's fine especially 00:27:54.809 --> 00:27:56.829 because i knew what the story was about and everything 00:27:56.829 --> 00:27:59.730 like that but now all of a sudden i don't need 00:27:59.730 --> 00:28:02.170 to because they're signing but they're also talking 00:28:02.170 --> 00:28:08.750 about what they are saying so long story short 00:28:08.750 --> 00:28:12.250 hugh and ally get to this small town's grocery 00:28:12.250 --> 00:28:16.470 store or drug store or whatever they're in there 00:28:16.470 --> 00:28:20.299 and they're able to find the antibiotic There's 00:28:20.299 --> 00:28:22.299 a part where the Vesps kind of are in the way, 00:28:22.440 --> 00:28:24.980 but they don't really, it's not hard to deal 00:28:24.980 --> 00:28:27.279 with them. And truthfully, I wasn't fully paying 00:28:27.279 --> 00:28:28.900 attention because I was just kind of bored at 00:28:28.900 --> 00:28:31.980 this point with this. But they do come across 00:28:31.980 --> 00:28:33.859 some Vesps and they're able to get rid of them 00:28:33.859 --> 00:28:36.859 pretty handily. That's not the next important 00:28:36.859 --> 00:28:39.420 part of the story. Because as they're leaving 00:28:39.420 --> 00:28:41.599 the drugstore, they run into this person that's 00:28:41.599 --> 00:28:44.839 obviously like a cult leader. You look at him 00:28:44.839 --> 00:28:47.680 and you just know. And his character is called 00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:51.500 the Reverend. You know this dude is just like 00:28:51.500 --> 00:28:56.099 this absolute cult leader. So the reverend, he 00:28:56.099 --> 00:28:59.700 doesn't talk. And we learn later that they all 00:28:59.700 --> 00:29:02.319 kind of broke their jaws so they can't talk. 00:29:04.359 --> 00:29:10.400 So they can get around the Vesps. Basically, 00:29:10.400 --> 00:29:12.759 we learn that he's like this religious kook that's 00:29:12.759 --> 00:29:16.279 trying to get the family to join their cause, 00:29:16.400 --> 00:29:19.019 where basically they repent and these vests are 00:29:19.019 --> 00:29:23.400 going to go away. That's the idea. And so at 00:29:23.400 --> 00:29:27.400 this point, A, I'm thinking, okay, they're smart 00:29:27.400 --> 00:29:28.619 because they're trying to get away from him. 00:29:28.660 --> 00:29:31.880 B, I'm going... It's just the second horror movie 00:29:31.880 --> 00:29:34.519 I've seen for this podcast where there's like 00:29:34.519 --> 00:29:38.279 this religious overtones because I also watched 00:29:38.279 --> 00:29:42.299 Tsunami for this podcast. And basically the people 00:29:42.299 --> 00:29:45.059 that were getting attacked by the it wasn't a 00:29:45.059 --> 00:29:48.700 tsunami. It was a wasp tornado. Basically, the 00:29:48.700 --> 00:29:50.420 people that were getting attacked by this wasp 00:29:50.420 --> 00:29:52.720 tornado are people that didn't repent or believe 00:29:52.720 --> 00:29:55.609 in God or anything like that. So I was really 00:29:55.609 --> 00:29:57.470 worried that we were going down this rabbit hole 00:29:57.470 --> 00:30:00.329 of religious overtones and everything like that. 00:30:01.289 --> 00:30:03.589 Technically, I'm kind of right, but technically 00:30:03.589 --> 00:30:06.430 I'm also kind of wrong when it comes down to 00:30:06.430 --> 00:30:09.210 that. We're in the last quarter of the movie. 00:30:10.109 --> 00:30:13.309 The Vesps no longer really become a part of it 00:30:13.309 --> 00:30:17.470 anymore, kind of. So Hugh and Allie get back 00:30:17.470 --> 00:30:22.329 to the cabin. They have the antibiotics. They're 00:30:22.329 --> 00:30:24.609 able to give it to the mom. She is going to be 00:30:24.609 --> 00:30:28.410 better. The grandma also was a nurse in another 00:30:28.410 --> 00:30:31.210 life or something like that. So that's how she 00:30:31.210 --> 00:30:33.049 knew how to take care of her and everything like 00:30:33.049 --> 00:30:36.769 that. So the mom's better. Not exactly great, 00:30:36.930 --> 00:30:41.009 but better. As they get back and the mom's making 00:30:41.009 --> 00:30:43.430 a full recovery and everything like that, they 00:30:43.430 --> 00:30:45.509 look outside and they see that the religious 00:30:45.509 --> 00:30:48.910 leader is there. And he also has... His cult. 00:30:49.049 --> 00:30:51.950 Which is like five people. And all of them are 00:30:51.950 --> 00:30:54.210 creepy. And all of them have bruised jaws. And 00:30:54.210 --> 00:30:56.329 this is when we learn that they broke their jaws. 00:30:56.509 --> 00:30:59.829 And everything like that. And Hugh goes out there. 00:31:00.470 --> 00:31:04.450 And is. What the hell do you want? Pretty much. 00:31:05.750 --> 00:31:07.809 The reverend writes down in his little notebook. 00:31:08.210 --> 00:31:12.269 We want you to join us. We believe that we can 00:31:12.269 --> 00:31:18.690 save. The unrepentant. Hugh. is immediately no 00:31:18.690 --> 00:31:21.670 we're not doing that and he writes down in the 00:31:21.670 --> 00:31:23.750 notebook so that the reverend understands please 00:31:23.750 --> 00:31:28.609 leave us alone leave us alone please and the 00:31:28.609 --> 00:31:31.430 reverend holds up like this crooked finger like 00:31:31.430 --> 00:31:35.390 one one second writes down something and he flips 00:31:35.390 --> 00:31:40.410 the notebook and it says the girl is fertile 00:31:43.210 --> 00:31:45.609 and he goes back in the house and i thought that 00:31:45.609 --> 00:31:47.109 was it i thought he was just going back in the 00:31:47.109 --> 00:31:50.190 house no he grabs the shotgun smart boy because 00:31:50.190 --> 00:31:52.650 honestly i would have done the same thing in 00:31:52.650 --> 00:31:55.170 that situation you fucking talk about my daughter 00:31:55.170 --> 00:31:59.829 i am going to end you obviously he doesn't shoot 00:31:59.829 --> 00:32:05.970 it the cult basically like smiles and walks away 00:32:05.970 --> 00:32:10.230 like they understand okay it's done we've made 00:32:10.230 --> 00:32:13.740 our point the girl is fertile God damn, it was 00:32:13.740 --> 00:32:16.400 so that's like the creepiest part. And it's not 00:32:16.400 --> 00:32:22.019 it's not creepy in a like. Oh, I was scared thing. 00:32:22.140 --> 00:32:24.960 It's creepy in a like, why did we go down this 00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:30.460 rabbit hole? It goes to that night and everybody's 00:32:30.460 --> 00:32:33.000 asleep and all of a sudden they're woken up by 00:32:33.000 --> 00:32:36.119 this feeling. Essentially, Hugh starts looking 00:32:36.119 --> 00:32:38.180 out the windows and he starts waking up the family 00:32:38.180 --> 00:32:41.740 like I know something's wrong. Something something's 00:32:41.740 --> 00:32:46.200 here. Something's wrong. And they see this little 00:32:46.200 --> 00:32:50.319 girl on the porch. And they're kind of looking 00:32:50.319 --> 00:32:53.059 around like, oh, this little girl, where'd she 00:32:53.059 --> 00:32:55.200 come from? Oh, God, where is this little girl 00:32:55.200 --> 00:32:59.160 from? And the mother's just kind of we can't 00:32:59.160 --> 00:33:02.299 leave her out there. So they bring her in. They 00:33:02.299 --> 00:33:04.240 start examining her and they see that her jaw 00:33:04.240 --> 00:33:06.819 is broken and they just think, OK, she she escaped 00:33:06.819 --> 00:33:09.180 from the cult. And that goes to Ali's room and 00:33:09.180 --> 00:33:11.650 Ali. wakes up because she senses something as 00:33:11.650 --> 00:33:14.750 well and she like opens the window and i'm expecting 00:33:14.750 --> 00:33:16.930 fully that she's going to see like the cult or 00:33:16.930 --> 00:33:20.589 whatever no she sees a cell phone and all of 00:33:20.589 --> 00:33:25.029 a sudden all hell breaks loose all uh all of 00:33:25.029 --> 00:33:28.450 it the one cell phone on the window the alarm 00:33:28.450 --> 00:33:32.089 starts going off and then The little girl has 00:33:32.089 --> 00:33:34.809 like five cell phones attached to a belt around 00:33:34.809 --> 00:33:38.109 her waist that also all start going off with 00:33:38.109 --> 00:33:41.329 alarms. And you just hear the Vesps go crazy. 00:33:42.150 --> 00:33:45.750 And they come in and they start attacking the 00:33:45.750 --> 00:33:48.529 house and they're breaking the windows and everything 00:33:48.529 --> 00:33:53.349 like that. And the mother, like in one fell swoop, 00:33:53.349 --> 00:33:56.369 removes the belt off the little girl. and throws 00:33:56.369 --> 00:33:59.609 it in some water and just starts drowning the 00:33:59.609 --> 00:34:04.470 phones to make the alarm stop going. I call this 00:34:04.470 --> 00:34:06.609 the noise bomb sequence because I think that's 00:34:06.609 --> 00:34:10.769 what is the best description of it. Hugh is fighting 00:34:10.769 --> 00:34:12.809 off the Vesps that get in the house or trying 00:34:12.809 --> 00:34:14.869 to block off the windows and everything like 00:34:14.869 --> 00:34:17.510 that. Jude's helping him, and he basically sends 00:34:17.510 --> 00:34:21.170 Allie, the mom, the grandma, all to the basement 00:34:21.170 --> 00:34:23.929 to hide so they can block everything off and 00:34:23.929 --> 00:34:25.909 everything like that. As soon as they get to 00:34:25.909 --> 00:34:27.650 the basement, there's two cult members waiting 00:34:27.650 --> 00:34:30.570 for them. They attack the mom and kick her in 00:34:30.570 --> 00:34:33.530 her leg wound. And I don't think they knew it 00:34:33.530 --> 00:34:35.769 was there. They just got lucky pretty much. And 00:34:35.769 --> 00:34:37.849 then the grandma was no threat and they were 00:34:37.849 --> 00:34:41.389 able to grab Allie and take her outside the basement. 00:34:42.650 --> 00:34:45.889 So the two are carrying Allie outside the door 00:34:45.889 --> 00:34:49.090 and the grandma starts chasing after them. And 00:34:49.090 --> 00:34:52.929 basically she just throws herself. at the two 00:34:52.929 --> 00:34:55.969 kidnappers and grabs them both by the legs and 00:34:55.969 --> 00:34:58.789 takes them out. Allie gets tossed a little bit 00:34:58.789 --> 00:35:02.889 further away, and the grandma looks at Allie 00:35:02.889 --> 00:35:05.989 and starts going and screaming bloody murder, 00:35:06.110 --> 00:35:09.369 just everything she can scream, and the Vesps 00:35:09.369 --> 00:35:13.150 start going after them. Basically, grandma and 00:35:13.150 --> 00:35:16.869 the two cultists are getting all the Vesps, and 00:35:16.869 --> 00:35:20.030 grandma's just sacrificing herself so that Allie 00:35:20.030 --> 00:35:23.570 can get away. Now, the rest of the cults finds 00:35:23.570 --> 00:35:30.190 Allie and grabs her. But this gave just enough 00:35:30.190 --> 00:35:32.469 time that the rest of the family can grab these 00:35:32.469 --> 00:35:37.230 silent weapons. Hugh has a tire iron. Jude has 00:35:37.230 --> 00:35:41.590 a spear. The mom gets, I can't remember what 00:35:41.590 --> 00:35:45.110 she had exactly because she kind of like. got 00:35:45.110 --> 00:35:47.130 knocked out and then grabbed the spear and was 00:35:47.130 --> 00:35:49.849 able to save the day but it just starts the slow 00:35:49.849 --> 00:35:52.949 motion fight that's all of like 20 seconds where 00:35:52.949 --> 00:35:58.630 they each take out a cultist member even though 00:35:58.630 --> 00:36:02.329 he takes out the reverend he was stabbed but 00:36:02.329 --> 00:36:05.909 he's still okay and then of course this is in 00:36:05.909 --> 00:36:09.489 a rainstorm so every stab every scream isn't 00:36:09.489 --> 00:36:12.360 heard over the thunder Even though Grandma was 00:36:12.360 --> 00:36:14.659 just screaming and she got all of the Vesps. 00:36:15.840 --> 00:36:18.300 And they each take out the cultist members. So 00:36:18.300 --> 00:36:22.099 now Jude, the mom, Hugh, and Allie are all still 00:36:22.099 --> 00:36:27.019 alive. And they just realize they need to get 00:36:27.019 --> 00:36:29.199 out of there because this cult, they don't know 00:36:29.199 --> 00:36:30.920 if there's more members or anything like that. 00:36:31.119 --> 00:36:33.579 And Allie remembers that she learned about the 00:36:33.579 --> 00:36:37.300 refuge. So the family takes off and they head 00:36:37.300 --> 00:36:41.199 towards the refuge. The refuge is basically in 00:36:41.199 --> 00:36:45.500 the mountains, and then the movie ends with Allie 00:36:45.500 --> 00:36:49.900 meeting up with Rob and giving some narration. 00:36:50.139 --> 00:36:53.000 Yes, Rob is still alive. He did make it to the 00:36:53.000 --> 00:36:56.380 refuge. Basically, the Vesps don't like cold, 00:36:56.559 --> 00:37:00.880 but will they evolve, or will the humans evolve 00:37:00.880 --> 00:37:04.659 first? That's what we're left on, this message 00:37:04.659 --> 00:37:10.000 of evolution and Vesps. All of that stuff. The 00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:14.619 end. So like I said, I'm going to compare this 00:37:14.619 --> 00:37:18.980 movie to A Quiet Place. And unfortunately, that 00:37:18.980 --> 00:37:21.820 double works against this movie. Because overall, 00:37:22.059 --> 00:37:23.659 I don't think this movie would have done well 00:37:23.659 --> 00:37:27.639 anyway. And that we've seen the same movie and 00:37:27.639 --> 00:37:33.380 done better is what hurts it as well. What A 00:37:33.380 --> 00:37:37.260 Quiet Place does really well is that it was completely... 00:37:37.719 --> 00:37:40.699 quiet there's not a lot of talking there's no 00:37:40.699 --> 00:37:43.500 real talking it's a lot of sign language and 00:37:43.500 --> 00:37:47.440 it's subtitles this what bothered the crap out 00:37:47.440 --> 00:37:49.820 of me is that as they're signing they're also 00:37:49.820 --> 00:37:52.619 saying what's happening and i get it you're trying 00:37:52.619 --> 00:37:54.300 to do it for the audience and everything like 00:37:54.300 --> 00:37:58.000 that but we've shown that we can do it in a quiet 00:37:58.000 --> 00:38:03.639 place that we don't need you to speak every line 00:38:03.639 --> 00:38:07.179 still We're okay with reading subtitles. And 00:38:07.179 --> 00:38:09.739 that goes back to a lot of points where it's 00:38:09.739 --> 00:38:12.059 like, there's all these great foreign movies, 00:38:12.179 --> 00:38:14.500 and if you're just willing to read subtitles, 00:38:14.800 --> 00:38:17.139 you can see all these great foreign movies. You 00:38:17.139 --> 00:38:19.099 don't need remakes of these foreign movies. You 00:38:19.099 --> 00:38:22.460 can just watch these great pieces of cinema if 00:38:22.460 --> 00:38:29.280 you just read the bottom line. And that's my 00:38:29.280 --> 00:38:34.690 main issue with this movie. There's parts where 00:38:34.690 --> 00:38:37.250 it's just unintentionally hilarious. Like when 00:38:37.250 --> 00:38:40.829 the woman fell down the well, I was losing it. 00:38:40.949 --> 00:38:45.530 And it was supposed to be... Well, I don't even 00:38:45.530 --> 00:38:46.949 know if it was supposed to be. It might have 00:38:46.949 --> 00:38:49.650 been just actually funny. Somebody asked me if 00:38:49.650 --> 00:38:52.570 this was a parody because they heard me talking 00:38:52.570 --> 00:38:55.510 about that part and going, oh, are we just making 00:38:55.510 --> 00:38:58.670 fun of A Quiet Place? No, this is a legit movie. 00:38:59.320 --> 00:39:01.840 Like, Stanley Tucci really tries in this movie. 00:39:01.880 --> 00:39:05.079 He really does. And I love the guy, and I think 00:39:05.079 --> 00:39:07.840 he does a good job that I'm okay to forgive his 00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:10.320 performance. And even Kiernan Shipka did really 00:39:10.320 --> 00:39:13.760 well, too. The rest of the family, meh. I'm not 00:39:13.760 --> 00:39:16.860 a big fan of. Kiernan Shipka, this is not her 00:39:16.860 --> 00:39:18.579 fault, but the way her character is written, 00:39:18.659 --> 00:39:22.739 there's a lot of unbelievability. And it doesn't 00:39:22.739 --> 00:39:28.360 help that it's an ableist casting. Again, A Quiet 00:39:28.360 --> 00:39:32.340 Place had an actual deaf girl play in the film 00:39:32.340 --> 00:39:34.539 and learn sign language and taught the family 00:39:34.539 --> 00:39:37.000 sign language and everything like that. I don't 00:39:37.000 --> 00:39:38.760 know if the sign language is legitimate because 00:39:38.760 --> 00:39:41.500 obviously I don't know sign language, but I think 00:39:41.500 --> 00:39:45.340 for the most part it is. But because Kiernan 00:39:45.340 --> 00:39:47.860 Shipka we have seen in other things and know 00:39:47.860 --> 00:39:51.840 that she's not deaf, it becomes a little tough. 00:39:52.139 --> 00:39:55.030 And again, this is not her fault. She was just 00:39:55.030 --> 00:39:57.449 cast in this film, and she's a great actress 00:39:57.449 --> 00:39:59.769 for her age and everything like that. I'm excited 00:39:59.769 --> 00:40:06.369 to see her in more. However, this was not the 00:40:06.369 --> 00:40:09.369 film that she should have been in a starring 00:40:09.369 --> 00:40:11.610 role for. She should have said no somehow, some 00:40:11.610 --> 00:40:14.150 way. And because it's in Netflix originally, 00:40:14.250 --> 00:40:16.289 because The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina are 00:40:16.289 --> 00:40:18.690 in Netflix as well, she may have not had a choice 00:40:18.690 --> 00:40:23.909 on this. Who knows? I would not, if I were her, 00:40:23.989 --> 00:40:28.690 go for this role. That being said, she did very 00:40:28.690 --> 00:40:33.090 well. Stanley Tucci gave it his all. Not shocked 00:40:33.090 --> 00:40:36.349 by that. I don't know. I just had parts that 00:40:36.349 --> 00:40:38.909 were unintentionally hilarious, including the 00:40:38.909 --> 00:40:41.369 fact that you knew Uncle Glenn was a loose cannon, 00:40:41.489 --> 00:40:43.929 so they just kind of tried to throw you and say, 00:40:44.070 --> 00:40:46.750 oh, he's a loose cannon. We know he's a loose 00:40:46.750 --> 00:40:48.650 cannon. Now we're just going to kill him suddenly. 00:40:50.599 --> 00:40:54.940 the wood chipper scene was hysterical. And I 00:40:54.940 --> 00:40:57.320 actually really think that would have worked 00:40:57.320 --> 00:41:00.179 in real life. I think that was a great solution, 00:41:00.260 --> 00:41:03.500 but for whatever reason, that just made me laugh 00:41:03.500 --> 00:41:10.840 so freaking hard in this movie. And truthfully, 00:41:10.840 --> 00:41:13.139 the Vesps were kind of just secondary characters. 00:41:13.340 --> 00:41:15.539 That was another hard part with this whole thing. 00:41:16.280 --> 00:41:19.519 The movie devolved into, look how evil humans 00:41:19.519 --> 00:41:23.420 are. Humans are the worst. And this happened 00:41:23.420 --> 00:41:25.940 within a matter of like three days. It's just 00:41:25.940 --> 00:41:28.679 kind of hard to believe that a cult would have 00:41:28.679 --> 00:41:31.119 developed this fast. And especially one that's 00:41:31.119 --> 00:41:33.079 like, cool, we need to repopulate the earth. 00:41:33.139 --> 00:41:35.760 Let's find this little girl and just like start 00:41:35.760 --> 00:41:39.940 repopulating with her. It was like three days. 00:41:40.679 --> 00:41:46.210 It wasn't that long that we're doing this. Um, 00:41:46.210 --> 00:41:50.369 PG 13 rating didn't help it. It was definitely 00:41:50.369 --> 00:41:53.269 like low blood shed. There was no blood whatsoever. 00:41:53.469 --> 00:41:55.969 And especially because this is a horror movie, 00:41:56.050 --> 00:41:59.750 I'm okay with an R rating. Like especially it's 00:41:59.750 --> 00:42:01.869 a, it's a Netflix one. Like we're not looking 00:42:01.869 --> 00:42:06.610 for, I don't know what I think Netflix could 00:42:06.610 --> 00:42:10.099 do is. you don't need to expand to the wider 00:42:10.099 --> 00:42:12.719 audience yeah you can try to don't get me wrong 00:42:12.719 --> 00:42:15.920 but you don't need to do that per se because 00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:22.139 you're not this budget isn't set on you need 00:42:22.139 --> 00:42:25.570 to get this many butts in theaters And so that's 00:42:25.570 --> 00:42:27.630 what's my hard part with this whole thing is 00:42:27.630 --> 00:42:29.769 I think it would have done better with a little 00:42:29.769 --> 00:42:32.369 bloodshed with a little seeing this and everything 00:42:32.369 --> 00:42:34.050 like that. Maybe you would have actually felt 00:42:34.050 --> 00:42:36.530 something besides seeing her fall down a well 00:42:36.530 --> 00:42:38.849 and she starts getting attacked and you're just 00:42:38.849 --> 00:42:42.449 like, oh, there's no blood. I don't care. Even 00:42:42.449 --> 00:42:46.489 the mom's wound that you saw, it just it looked 00:42:46.489 --> 00:42:48.409 bad. Don't get me wrong, but it's not like bleeding 00:42:48.409 --> 00:42:50.409 or anything like that. It was just a bad wound. 00:42:51.329 --> 00:42:54.469 So. I don't know. It probably would have helped 00:42:54.469 --> 00:42:57.670 if it was an R rating versus a PG -13 rating. 00:42:58.670 --> 00:43:01.309 There's certain things like showing the mother 00:43:01.309 --> 00:43:04.230 and the baby dying in the subway car and never 00:43:04.230 --> 00:43:06.750 coming back to it. I don't know who these people 00:43:06.750 --> 00:43:08.849 are. I don't care about these people. I get it. 00:43:08.849 --> 00:43:11.429 You're supposed to feel that a baby died. And 00:43:11.429 --> 00:43:14.570 I do. Especially because I'm the one who says 00:43:14.570 --> 00:43:18.170 that you killed Otis, you bastards. Otis the 00:43:18.170 --> 00:43:21.719 dog did not deserve to die. you're at fault for 00:43:21.719 --> 00:43:24.320 bringing a barky dog with you. Just leave him 00:43:24.320 --> 00:43:26.380 at home. And he would have been fine inside the 00:43:26.380 --> 00:43:29.559 house probably if you would have closed the windows 00:43:29.559 --> 00:43:32.039 or something like that. He would have been fine. 00:43:32.119 --> 00:43:35.079 You didn't have to bring him with you. I don't 00:43:35.079 --> 00:43:42.360 know. Part of it is we've seen a better movie 00:43:42.360 --> 00:43:45.920 before that does the same exact thing. Part of 00:43:45.920 --> 00:43:48.699 it is that some of the stuff came across as unintentionally 00:43:48.699 --> 00:43:51.780 hilarious. And part of it is just it's a PG -13. 00:43:53.239 --> 00:44:00.880 So rating, I'll give it a 0 .5 out of 5. The 00:44:00.880 --> 00:44:05.539 Mitchell Zero texts that go through when obviously 00:44:05.539 --> 00:44:07.760 there was no service anywhere. They couldn't 00:44:07.760 --> 00:44:13.199 get television, let alone a phone signal. Ali 00:44:13.199 --> 00:44:16.400 was able to contact with Rob multiple times and 00:44:16.400 --> 00:44:18.199 learn about these things like the refuge and 00:44:18.199 --> 00:44:21.119 everything like that. It's just Deus Ex technology 00:44:21.119 --> 00:44:28.380 pretty much. So 0 .5 out of 5.
