WEBVTT 00:00:02.039 --> 00:00:03.439 You know what that sound means? It's another 00:00:03.439 --> 00:00:05.540 episode of the Game for a Movie podcast where 00:00:05.540 --> 00:00:07.660 we ask, are you game for a movie? My name is 00:00:07.660 --> 00:00:09.699 Mike. I will be your host this evening, and I 00:00:09.699 --> 00:00:12.400 have one hell of a film to talk to you about. 00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:15.119 And I say one hell of a film because honestly, 00:00:15.439 --> 00:00:17.519 it's not even about the film. It's about the 00:00:17.519 --> 00:00:19.780 director. But of course, we start this podcast 00:00:19.780 --> 00:00:21.839 the same way we always start the podcast with 00:00:21.839 --> 00:00:24.859 what we are drinking. I have Mountain Candy from 00:00:24.859 --> 00:00:27.890 Sycamore Brewing right here in Charlotte. Sycamore 00:00:27.890 --> 00:00:30.230 is probably one of my most visited breweries 00:00:30.230 --> 00:00:32.570 since moving down here to Charlotte. Especially, 00:00:32.670 --> 00:00:35.770 I've met friends there, including Matt from the 00:00:35.770 --> 00:00:38.549 Hop Geek News podcast when he was in town for 00:00:38.549 --> 00:00:40.750 Packers Panthers. It was very good to actually 00:00:40.750 --> 00:00:43.670 put a face to a name finally. Obviously, we've 00:00:43.670 --> 00:00:45.390 talked a lot behind the scenes and stuff like 00:00:45.390 --> 00:00:47.049 that. We're in a fantasy league together. He's 00:00:47.049 --> 00:00:49.990 a guy that I claim out of all the podcasters 00:00:49.990 --> 00:00:53.329 that I've met via Twitter or X or whatever. He's 00:00:53.329 --> 00:00:54.630 somebody that I actually would have considered 00:00:54.630 --> 00:00:57.170 a friend even before meeting him. And truthfully, 00:00:57.189 --> 00:00:59.270 it was very nice to actually get to meet him 00:00:59.270 --> 00:01:02.590 and his wife at Sycamore Brewing. Sycamore's 00:01:02.590 --> 00:01:05.090 flagship is this Mountain Candy, which is a delicious 00:01:05.090 --> 00:01:08.590 IPA. Very juicy, very delicious. Obviously, candy 00:01:08.590 --> 00:01:12.109 giving that juicy taste and everything. Before 00:01:12.109 --> 00:01:14.890 we talk about today's movie of the day, we are 00:01:14.890 --> 00:01:16.290 going to talk about some of the things we've 00:01:16.290 --> 00:01:18.310 been doing behind the scenes. We had an Emmys 00:01:18.310 --> 00:01:21.230 pool that was won by friend of the podcast, Mark, 00:01:21.390 --> 00:01:25.209 as well as we have a Razzies pool and an Oscars 00:01:25.209 --> 00:01:27.469 pool coming up. If you would like to join, please 00:01:27.469 --> 00:01:29.650 send us a direct message on Twitter, Facebook, 00:01:29.829 --> 00:01:31.989 Instagram, whatever, and I will hook you up with 00:01:31.989 --> 00:01:35.159 a link so you can jump in. Especially those Razzie 00:01:35.159 --> 00:01:37.579 awards because I have a special episode coming 00:01:37.579 --> 00:01:39.799 up with some of the Razzie movies that I've seen 00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:42.299 for the year. Talking about all of those as well 00:01:42.299 --> 00:01:45.140 as my picks for who I think is going to win the 00:01:45.140 --> 00:01:48.120 Golden Raspberries. Including a new movie that 00:01:48.120 --> 00:01:51.319 I now own because on Redbox it was $5 to rent 00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:54.700 and $3 to own. So I now own Johnny and Clyde, 00:01:54.719 --> 00:01:59.120 a film starring Megan Fox that doesn't look amazing. 00:01:59.159 --> 00:02:02.159 Which she's nominated for Worst Actress for. 00:02:02.740 --> 00:02:05.500 So, yeah, I've got some Razzie information coming. 00:02:05.980 --> 00:02:08.219 You may have seen that already. If you get our 00:02:08.219 --> 00:02:10.840 newsletter, I would also be happy to sign you 00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:13.460 up for that. If you would like to have a I call 00:02:13.460 --> 00:02:15.379 it monthly newsletter, but really it's just whenever 00:02:15.379 --> 00:02:17.659 I feel like it.

Thank you guys for listening very much, 00:02:24.939 --> 00:02:27.240 by the way. If you are listening for the first 00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:31.009 time for the. 700th time. We really appreciate 00:02:31.009 --> 00:02:33.990 everyone that listens to the show, especially 00:02:33.990 --> 00:02:36.310 me who's trying to do more and more episodes 00:02:36.310 --> 00:02:39.150 alone and is getting more comfortable with it. 00:02:39.169 --> 00:02:42.250 Unfortunately, we hope to have everybody back 00:02:42.250 --> 00:02:45.389 for another couple episodes in the next couple 00:02:45.389 --> 00:02:48.250 of weeks. Mitchell's bachelor party. If you have 00:02:48.250 --> 00:02:50.229 been listening to the show a long time, Mitchell 00:02:50.229 --> 00:02:52.449 is getting married. So his bachelor party is 00:02:52.449 --> 00:02:54.889 next month as well as his wedding the month after. 00:02:55.030 --> 00:02:57.310 So it may be a little hard to get us all together. 00:02:57.919 --> 00:03:00.219 With all of that going on and everything like 00:03:00.219 --> 00:03:03.539 that. But we still are going to try to get everybody 00:03:03.539 --> 00:03:05.759 together and talk about all of these movies. 00:03:05.819 --> 00:03:08.860 Good, bad, whatever. Speaking of bad movies, 00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:12.780 I've got one for you today. It is one of the 00:03:12.780 --> 00:03:15.400 worst movies ever released in January. It is 00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:17.479 still January as of the time of this recording. 00:03:17.939 --> 00:03:22.870 It is Alone in the Dark. Alone in the Dark is 00:03:22.870 --> 00:03:27.349 from 2005. It is a video game adaptation from 00:03:27.349 --> 00:03:31.969 director Yuva Bull. And truthfully, it is a boring 00:03:31.969 --> 00:03:36.090 movie. It's featured on the IMDb's bottom 100 00:03:36.090 --> 00:03:40.110 film list of all time. It is a 1 % critic score 00:03:40.110 --> 00:03:43.909 and 11 % audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. And 00:03:43.909 --> 00:03:46.469 fully deserves every last bit of it, if you want 00:03:46.469 --> 00:03:48.349 to know the truth. I could talk about the movie, 00:03:48.389 --> 00:03:50.030 and I am going to talk about the movie in some 00:03:50.030 --> 00:03:53.520 detail. As we get to it. But really what I've 00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:57.120 got to talk first is I have to talk about Yuva 00:03:57.120 --> 00:04:00.319 Bull. Yuva Bull, as I said, is the director of 00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:02.919 Alone in the Dark. He is a German filmmaker. 00:04:03.620 --> 00:04:06.560 He has a reputation. He has been known to get 00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:09.539 his hands on video game adaptations. He's done 00:04:09.539 --> 00:04:12.520 such movies as House of the Dead, Alone in the 00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:17.439 Dark, Far Cry, Blood Rain, as well as Postal, 00:04:17.459 --> 00:04:19.480 one of his favorite movies that he's ever done. 00:04:20.060 --> 00:04:22.600 Almost none of his movies make money at the actual 00:04:22.600 --> 00:04:25.240 box office, though he does have a pretty sizable 00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:29.899 return for home video releases or people buying 00:04:29.899 --> 00:04:34.740 DVD copies of it. And I say sizable, not exactly 00:04:34.740 --> 00:04:38.519 amazing. But at the same time, he is well -known, 00:04:38.540 --> 00:04:41.720 and I will give them credit for this. I'm going 00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:44.120 to shit on this guy a lot, probably. But truth 00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:50.189 is, I am fascinated by Yuva Bull. He is... Just 00:04:50.189 --> 00:04:54.769 this chaotic man in the best of ways. Obviously 00:04:54.769 --> 00:04:56.810 on the podcast, we talk a lot of bad movies and 00:04:56.810 --> 00:04:59.069 everything like that. And truthfully, it's because 00:04:59.069 --> 00:05:01.329 a lot of these have a little bit of heart and 00:05:01.329 --> 00:05:03.949 a little bit of feeling. And even if they're 00:05:03.949 --> 00:05:08.550 awful, sometimes it's just fun to watch. I will 00:05:08.550 --> 00:05:10.689 say Alone in the Dark wasn't one of those, but 00:05:10.689 --> 00:05:14.129 the career of Uwe Boll is one of those. Like 00:05:14.129 --> 00:05:16.649 I said, he is just a very fascinating guy because 00:05:16.649 --> 00:05:20.430 he found a loophole. in German tax law that keeps 00:05:20.430 --> 00:05:22.569 getting him money so that he can make these films. 00:05:23.129 --> 00:05:25.189 So one of the things I do want to give credit 00:05:25.189 --> 00:05:29.430 to for Uwe Boll is he works with incredibly low 00:05:29.430 --> 00:05:31.970 budgets, especially nowadays where every movie 00:05:31.970 --> 00:05:35.810 has inflating, ballooning production budgets. 00:05:36.750 --> 00:05:39.550 I don't have the exact numbers for Alone in the 00:05:39.550 --> 00:05:42.350 Dark, but I do for House of the Dead. It had 00:05:42.350 --> 00:05:45.029 a production budget of around $7 million. It 00:05:45.029 --> 00:05:48.189 garnered $11 million at the box office and then 00:05:48.189 --> 00:05:52.069 an additional $28 million from home video. And 00:05:52.069 --> 00:05:54.750 that's a lot of what you can say because Alone 00:05:54.750 --> 00:05:57.329 in the Dark had a $20 million budget. It only 00:05:57.329 --> 00:06:01.110 made $5 .1 million at the box office. But I happen 00:06:01.110 --> 00:06:03.290 to know a lot of people that have rented it, 00:06:03.350 --> 00:06:05.910 bought it, seen it, that kind of stuff because 00:06:05.910 --> 00:06:08.069 they just want to see the train wreck that is 00:06:08.069 --> 00:06:10.709 Alone in the Dark. So I'll give him credit there 00:06:10.709 --> 00:06:13.149 where he works with these incredibly tight budgets, 00:06:13.209 --> 00:06:15.790 makes these movies and they're not great, but 00:06:15.790 --> 00:06:18.350 they do make their money back. And then some 00:06:18.350 --> 00:06:21.569 they do usually recoup their money. A lot of 00:06:21.569 --> 00:06:24.029 people like to look at just box office and especially 00:06:24.029 --> 00:06:26.569 certain worlds now that we live in where there's 00:06:26.569 --> 00:06:31.870 not a lot of post market after theaters. And 00:06:31.870 --> 00:06:34.009 they just look at the box office and go, wow, 00:06:34.129 --> 00:06:35.870 this movie really didn't do well, even if it 00:06:35.870 --> 00:06:39.769 did well. worldwide or if it did well in post 00:06:39.769 --> 00:06:43.569 sales for dvds and stuff like that so everybody 00:06:43.569 --> 00:06:45.870 sees his movies and goes wow that was a total 00:06:45.870 --> 00:06:48.709 flop because it only made 5 .1 million on a 20 00:06:48.709 --> 00:06:51.189 million dollar budget but it does usually make 00:06:51.189 --> 00:06:54.089 its money back in these post sales so there i've 00:06:54.089 --> 00:06:56.589 got i've given him something nice and as told 00:06:56.589 --> 00:07:00.389 the compliment sandwich is always nice criticism 00:07:00.389 --> 00:07:05.069 nice let's get to the criticism shall we so a 00:07:05.069 --> 00:07:07.819 lot of people rightly so, because of his movies, 00:07:07.939 --> 00:07:10.639 have called him out and done negative reviews 00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:15.339 about Uwe Boll. Some of these people have received 00:07:15.339 --> 00:07:19.040 the ultimate honor, is what I will say. So Boll 00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:23.379 reached out to his five harshest critics and 00:07:23.379 --> 00:07:26.439 basically challenged each of them to a 10 -round 00:07:26.439 --> 00:07:29.600 boxing match. And I'm not joking. This is not 00:07:29.600 --> 00:07:33.620 something that he was just like, Oh yeah, I'm 00:07:33.620 --> 00:07:35.160 just going to challenge him to a boxing match, 00:07:35.259 --> 00:07:37.500 put him in their place. He actually did them 00:07:37.500 --> 00:07:42.040 and was victorious in all five. Even if you didn't 00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:44.399 like the guy, I don't know that I would ever 00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:47.860 go in a boxing match against Yuva Bull. Especially 00:07:47.860 --> 00:07:50.839 if you see the guy, he'd probably kick my ass. 00:07:50.939 --> 00:07:53.279 So I'm going to say right now, I'm not saying 00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:54.959 these things because I want to start a fight 00:07:54.959 --> 00:07:58.000 or get into a fight or anything like that. I'm 00:07:58.000 --> 00:08:00.899 just talking about the movie and the fact that 00:08:00.899 --> 00:08:03.680 it's bad. I have not myself watched it yet, but 00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:06.279 these boxing matches are also part of the subject 00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:10.579 of Raging Bull. Yes, that's B -O -L -L. It's 00:08:10.579 --> 00:08:13.540 a documentary on the filmmaker's life and everything 00:08:13.540 --> 00:08:15.680 like that, including these boxing matches that 00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:19.439 he's challenged people to. And just because the 00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:22.019 critics are the ones that actually had the boxing 00:08:22.019 --> 00:08:24.680 matches doesn't mean they're the only ones to 00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:26.819 get challenged. Some of the other people that 00:08:26.819 --> 00:08:30.949 were challenged to these boxing matches. During 00:08:30.949 --> 00:08:34.950 publicity for Postal, Uwe Boll said that he is 00:08:34.950 --> 00:08:37.850 the only genius in the whole fucking movie business, 00:08:37.929 --> 00:08:40.730 and he called certain directors, I'll say Michael 00:08:40.730 --> 00:08:44.590 Bay and Eli Roth, fucking R -words. Obviously, 00:08:44.590 --> 00:08:47.710 he said the actual word. I personally don't use 00:08:47.710 --> 00:08:50.370 that word in my day -to -day. Hope you understand 00:08:50.370 --> 00:08:53.789 that. I'm fine with saying fucking, but the R 00:08:53.789 --> 00:08:57.070 -word is a no -no. Bay, of course, was asked 00:08:57.070 --> 00:09:00.250 about this, and he said that Bull is a sad bean 00:09:00.250 --> 00:09:02.049 and that he couldn't care less about the comments. 00:09:02.450 --> 00:09:06.070 Roth said that he described the comments as the 00:09:06.070 --> 00:09:09.830 greatest compliment ever coming from Bull. Of 00:09:09.830 --> 00:09:13.409 course, that doesn't just stop Uwe Bull, the 00:09:13.409 --> 00:09:15.610 most interesting man in Hollywood or filmmaking, 00:09:15.870 --> 00:09:19.049 I guess, really. He basically then appeared on 00:09:19.049 --> 00:09:21.490 G4's Attack of the Show, where he was interviewed, 00:09:21.649 --> 00:09:26.240 mind you, in the nude. to challenge Michael Bay 00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:30.019 to a 12 -round boxing match at the Mandalay Bay. 00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:32.679 Of course, Michael Bay didn't have to respond, 00:09:32.779 --> 00:09:35.899 but he did, saying partially, I never even heard 00:09:35.899 --> 00:09:37.659 his name until last week when he made threats 00:09:37.659 --> 00:09:39.679 and rants. The guy is a fucking idiot making 00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:42.980 threats to me. Clooney, Eli Roth says he has 00:09:42.980 --> 00:09:45.820 a doctorate but uses the R word in his vocabulary. 00:09:45.899 --> 00:09:48.539 Come on. I don't agree with Michael Bay on a 00:09:48.539 --> 00:09:50.899 lot of things, but I even got to say, yeah, he's 00:09:50.899 --> 00:09:54.460 kind of right. Obviously, that boxing match never 00:09:54.460 --> 00:09:57.639 happened, although a Michael Bay Uwe Boll boxing 00:09:57.639 --> 00:10:00.480 match would probably sell better than an Uwe 00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:05.639 Boll movie. Supposedly, in September of 2016, 00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:08.000 he released his last movie, walked away from 00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:10.779 the camera and the end credits, and that's been 00:10:10.779 --> 00:10:14.620 it, right? Well, only kind of right. He still 00:10:14.620 --> 00:10:17.659 has produced and released a couple of movies 00:10:17.659 --> 00:10:20.340 here or there, but it's definitely not as frequent 00:10:20.340 --> 00:10:24.419 as it used to be. Now, because he's moved on 00:10:24.419 --> 00:10:27.580 to something different in his life, he has entered 00:10:27.580 --> 00:10:30.480 the restaurant industry because he wanted to 00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:34.360 have German food in Vancouver. And truthfully, 00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:35.960 it's worked out for him. It's actually been pretty 00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:39.259 great. In 2020, his restaurant won a gold award 00:10:39.259 --> 00:10:41.879 for best European restaurant at the 2020 Vancouver 00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:44.919 Magazine Awards. So good for him. So that's where 00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:48.720 it stands today on Uwe Boll. He's doing... what 00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:51.539 he wants to do, and he's always been, and this 00:10:51.539 --> 00:10:54.860 is a common thing I've seen about it, he's always 00:10:54.860 --> 00:10:58.059 been honest. Honest the way he thinks it is. 00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:02.240 That's another way I'll quote it. It may not 00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:05.159 exactly be honest, honest, where he can admit 00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:07.039 that he made a bad movie or anything like that, 00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:10.039 but the way he sees it and the way he feels it, 00:11:10.100 --> 00:11:12.679 he's always been true to how he feels about it 00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:16.500 and how he thinks it is. I will say good for 00:11:16.500 --> 00:11:18.799 him, and he is a very interesting human being. 00:11:19.019 --> 00:11:21.799 Notice, I can talk about him a lot longer than 00:11:21.799 --> 00:11:23.720 I can probably talk about the movie Alone in 00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:27.460 the Dark, which got him a Razzie Award for Worst 00:11:27.460 --> 00:11:30.200 Director. So let's begin, shall we, talking about 00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:33.940 actual Alone in the Dark. Alone in the Dark is 00:11:33.940 --> 00:11:36.559 a video game adaptation of a game series from 00:11:36.559 --> 00:11:40.899 Infoware. Alone in the Dark stars Christian Slater, 00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:45.029 Stephen Dorff, and Tara Reid. and, of course, 00:11:45.090 --> 00:11:48.049 is directed by Yuva Bull. Had a $20 million budget, 00:11:48.210 --> 00:11:50.450 as I said earlier. From what I can tell, it had 00:11:50.450 --> 00:11:55.830 a box office of $5 .1 million, which, not great, 00:11:55.950 --> 00:11:59.450 I'll admit, but at least it made some kind of 00:11:59.450 --> 00:12:02.090 money. That might actually be saying a lot for 00:12:02.090 --> 00:12:04.830 this film. Let's go into the details of what 00:12:04.830 --> 00:12:08.169 happens. So the movie starts with a long scroll. 00:12:08.350 --> 00:12:11.049 And basically this was added because a lot of 00:12:11.049 --> 00:12:13.450 people were confused about what happened in the 00:12:13.450 --> 00:12:15.870 actual movie. So taking in from Tess' audience 00:12:15.870 --> 00:12:17.970 and everything like that, they added in this 00:12:17.970 --> 00:12:22.649 long scroll to explain everything that happens. 00:12:23.309 --> 00:12:26.759 So there's a group called the Abkhani. who opened 00:12:26.759 --> 00:12:28.899 a world between the light and the dark world. 00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:32.039 These terrifying creatures in the darkness, everything 00:12:32.039 --> 00:12:35.179 like that. The Abkhani basically were wiped off 00:12:35.179 --> 00:12:37.960 the face of the planet. It also introduces Bureau 00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:42.279 713, which explores abnormalities in our light 00:12:42.279 --> 00:12:45.019 world, is what I will say. This group was founded 00:12:45.019 --> 00:12:50.080 by Dr. Hudgens. He was the leader of Bureau 713, 00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:54.799 but he was basically kicked out because he was... 00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:58.679 Psychotic, essentially. And now he is in an abandoned 00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:01.860 mine and he does experiments on children, mixing 00:13:01.860 --> 00:13:04.500 them with creatures. So he's mixing man with 00:13:04.500 --> 00:13:08.539 creature, which are these creatures from the 00:13:08.539 --> 00:13:10.539 dark world. I don't know what else to call them. 00:13:10.639 --> 00:13:13.960 They're called Xenos later in the film, but we 00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:16.559 don't know that right now. We get a little intro 00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:19.139 scene that's obviously in the past where Hudgens 00:13:19.139 --> 00:13:23.279 is talking to a nun at an orphanage. And the 00:13:23.279 --> 00:13:27.259 nun... admits that she is going to call the police 00:13:27.259 --> 00:13:29.620 eventually, but just give it some time where 00:13:29.620 --> 00:13:31.779 basically the children disappeared overnight. 00:13:32.159 --> 00:13:35.059 In that same scene, Hudgens is being told by 00:13:35.059 --> 00:13:38.539 one of his underlings that one of the children 00:13:38.539 --> 00:13:41.559 has disappeared. We kind of see him go through 00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:43.679 this thing where he sees the monsters and everything 00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:48.039 like that, the missing orphan. And then it flashes 00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:51.059 to today. We are on a plane where our main character 00:13:51.059 --> 00:13:54.409 played by Christian Slater, Edward, Kind of jumps 00:13:54.409 --> 00:13:57.590 out of a nightmare. And he's sitting next to 00:13:57.590 --> 00:14:00.649 this kid who is basically talking to him saying, 00:14:00.789 --> 00:14:02.409 did you have a nightmare? Cheese gives you nightmare. 00:14:02.549 --> 00:14:04.809 I saw you eat cheese before. And Christian Slater 00:14:04.809 --> 00:14:07.909 basically gives this narration while he also 00:14:07.909 --> 00:14:11.049 scares the shit out of this child. So after the 00:14:11.049 --> 00:14:13.110 flight, we see Edward leave the airport and he 00:14:13.110 --> 00:14:15.769 gets into a cab. And basically this cabbie is 00:14:15.769 --> 00:14:17.389 just making small talk with him and everything 00:14:17.389 --> 00:14:21.649 like that. And Slater slash Edward realizes that 00:14:21.649 --> 00:14:23.940 they're being followed. And they're being followed 00:14:23.940 --> 00:14:27.120 by this thing called a sleeper. Sleeper is the 00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:29.080 thing that Hudgens has been operating on making 00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:34.100 half man, half Zeno. So they call them sleepers 00:14:34.100 --> 00:14:36.559 because they look like humans, but they kind 00:14:36.559 --> 00:14:41.519 of are evil in a sense. So one of these sleepers 00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:44.940 is chasing after them in another cab. And basically, 00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:49.129 Edward, there's this whole chase scene. and the 00:14:49.129 --> 00:14:52.710 cab gets pinned in a bad area and the sleeper 00:14:52.710 --> 00:14:55.350 is going to run through the cab edward jumps 00:14:55.350 --> 00:14:59.970 out of the cab left and when the scene comes 00:14:59.970 --> 00:15:03.470 back he's to the right it's one of my favorite 00:15:03.470 --> 00:15:05.750 things to start off this movie where we're not 00:15:05.750 --> 00:15:07.909 even 10 minutes in and there's already been an 00:15:07.909 --> 00:15:10.669 error where i'm like oh shit i saw that and i 00:15:10.669 --> 00:15:12.850 wasn't even paying attention to this part really 00:15:13.340 --> 00:15:15.519 After he gets away from the sleeper in the cab, 00:15:15.700 --> 00:15:19.200 basically he's running away, knowing that the 00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:21.220 sleeper is going to be right on his tail. They 00:15:21.220 --> 00:15:25.519 get into a hand -in -hand combat, and basically 00:15:25.519 --> 00:15:27.799 there's like 80 different cuts in this fight 00:15:27.799 --> 00:15:29.700 sequence that you have no clue what's going on, 00:15:29.820 --> 00:15:32.600 but you kind of just know that Edward is losing. 00:15:33.549 --> 00:15:35.409 And I said at this point, he's struggling with 00:15:35.409 --> 00:15:37.909 one of these man creatures, sleepers or whatever. 00:15:38.090 --> 00:15:40.350 We are supposed to believe that he's going to 00:15:40.350 --> 00:15:42.429 take out all of them at the end because we know 00:15:42.429 --> 00:15:44.610 how this is going to go, right? He's going to 00:15:44.610 --> 00:15:47.009 win, save the day, get the girl, that kind of 00:15:47.009 --> 00:15:49.429 stuff. We also learned that he doesn't have his 00:15:49.429 --> 00:15:52.190 own weapon because he grabs a gun off of a cop 00:15:52.190 --> 00:15:55.169 and he starts shooting at the sleeper. And even 00:15:55.169 --> 00:15:58.750 though it has bullet time, slow motion shots 00:15:58.750 --> 00:16:01.049 that you can see obviously go through the heart 00:16:01.049 --> 00:16:04.639 of the sleeper. The sleeper is pretty much unaffected. 00:16:04.700 --> 00:16:07.419 I also gave a comment at this point saying at 00:16:07.419 --> 00:16:09.779 least it has blood because if you are going to 00:16:09.779 --> 00:16:12.220 go and be rated R and be a video game adaptation, 00:16:12.580 --> 00:16:15.360 why not go for it? Have blood. And so that was 00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:17.679 something that I was okay with and the fact that 00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:21.320 it is a bloody mess. Finally, they get to a fish 00:16:21.320 --> 00:16:23.340 packing market, which is why I've said I think 00:16:23.340 --> 00:16:25.580 it's either San Francisco or Seattle or maybe 00:16:25.580 --> 00:16:31.320 even Vancouver if it's to be believed that. Eva 00:16:31.320 --> 00:16:34.080 Bull was living in Vancouver at this time, basically 00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:36.340 somewhere that would make sense to have fish 00:16:36.340 --> 00:16:38.299 on ice at this market where they're just like 00:16:38.299 --> 00:16:41.139 tossing fish and everything like that. So they 00:16:41.139 --> 00:16:43.360 get into this fight. He's holding Edward down 00:16:43.360 --> 00:16:47.899 on the end of the belt. And there's like a pointy 00:16:47.899 --> 00:16:51.940 stick or stake hanging up right above him. And 00:16:51.940 --> 00:16:56.669 Edward's able to grab this. hook and pull himself 00:16:56.669 --> 00:16:59.769 out of the way and get the sleeper to fall on 00:16:59.769 --> 00:17:02.250 the stake and spike himself through the gut. 00:17:02.629 --> 00:17:07.329 Sleeper down. Great. So now we go to a museum. 00:17:07.349 --> 00:17:09.430 It flashes to a museum and we get introduced 00:17:09.430 --> 00:17:12.549 to another one of our new characters. This is 00:17:12.549 --> 00:17:16.089 Tara Reid's character of Aileen. Aileen works 00:17:16.089 --> 00:17:19.549 at the museum. She is basically the head of research 00:17:19.549 --> 00:17:24.059 when Dr. Hudgens isn't there. Yes, that Dr. Hudgens. 00:17:24.119 --> 00:17:26.839 I know what you're thinking. There's a security 00:17:26.839 --> 00:17:30.059 guy that is walking with this delivery guy up 00:17:30.059 --> 00:17:33.480 to Aileen and saying, basically, the delivery 00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:36.920 guy is looking for Dr. Hudgens, but he doesn't 00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:38.420 know if he can leave it with Aileen. And the 00:17:38.420 --> 00:17:40.039 security guard is just like, don't you know who 00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:43.099 she is? This is Aileen. She is the leader of 00:17:43.099 --> 00:17:46.319 this thing when Dr. Hudgens is gone. She is also 00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:49.960 the head researcher of Akani culture. The reason 00:17:49.960 --> 00:17:51.660 I made notes of this is because the security 00:17:51.660 --> 00:17:54.740 guard knows way too much about the Abkhani, Dr. 00:17:54.940 --> 00:17:57.680 Hudgens, and also he has a throwaway line about, 00:17:57.819 --> 00:17:59.980 oh, it's because her boyfriend has been missing 00:17:59.980 --> 00:18:03.180 for three months, which is also insane that her 00:18:03.180 --> 00:18:05.160 boyfriend has just been missing for three months 00:18:05.160 --> 00:18:07.700 and like everybody knows about it. The security 00:18:07.700 --> 00:18:10.140 guard knows about it. Lots of people know that 00:18:10.140 --> 00:18:12.579 he's been gone for three months. This is also 00:18:12.579 --> 00:18:15.720 juxtaposed with another scene going on where 00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:18.579 Dr. Hudgens is on a boat in the middle of the 00:18:18.579 --> 00:18:21.880 ocean. And he is working with this ocean crew. 00:18:22.079 --> 00:18:25.059 They have found this relic in the middle of the 00:18:25.059 --> 00:18:28.319 ocean that they are pulling in onto the boat. 00:18:28.400 --> 00:18:30.779 And it is housed in gold because it keeps away 00:18:30.779 --> 00:18:32.839 bad spirits or locks them away. I'm not really 00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:34.440 too sure what they were saying about it. They 00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:38.180 said bad spirits. And basically this gold either 00:18:38.180 --> 00:18:42.839 keeps them in or keeps them out. So Aileen is 00:18:42.839 --> 00:18:45.079 looking at this thing that was sent to Dr. Hudgens. 00:18:45.099 --> 00:18:48.099 She's examining it. Hudgens is finding this relic 00:18:48.099 --> 00:18:50.140 in the middle of the ocean. And we don't know 00:18:50.140 --> 00:18:52.059 what's happening with Edward. He's on his own 00:18:52.059 --> 00:18:55.079 at his own place after having defeated the sleeper. 00:18:55.079 --> 00:18:57.220 So all three of these scenes are kind of happening 00:18:57.220 --> 00:19:00.359 at once. Aileen is looking at the thing that 00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:02.640 was sent for Dr. Hudgens. She's examining it 00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:05.680 and everything like that. And then Edward, having 00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:08.940 just defeated the sleeper, is going home to take 00:19:08.940 --> 00:19:12.740 a well -deserved nap. And Dr. Hudgens is looking 00:19:12.740 --> 00:19:15.900 at this relic. The ocean crew with Dr. Hudgens 00:19:15.900 --> 00:19:18.759 are talking to each other and going, if it's 00:19:18.759 --> 00:19:20.740 housed in gold, can you imagine how valuable 00:19:20.740 --> 00:19:23.500 it is on the inside? And so they double cross 00:19:23.500 --> 00:19:27.160 Hudgens and lock him away in the, I guess, brig, 00:19:27.319 --> 00:19:29.900 but it's like a holding area kind of thing. The 00:19:29.900 --> 00:19:33.440 boat crew gets it open and all of a sudden pandemonium 00:19:33.440 --> 00:19:36.359 hits. You can see. You only get it from Dr. Hudgens' 00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:39.259 point of view. So you hear noises, you see things 00:19:39.259 --> 00:19:41.400 start to shake and everything like that. You 00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:44.019 have no clue what's going on. You just know they've 00:19:44.019 --> 00:19:47.839 unveiled something. As well as Edward starts 00:19:47.839 --> 00:19:51.319 having these moments where he's freaking out 00:19:51.319 --> 00:19:55.480 at his house and everything like that. And Aileen's 00:19:55.480 --> 00:19:57.599 kind of seeing these things that are spiking 00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:01.900 on the relic as it happens. Also, we see other 00:20:01.900 --> 00:20:04.440 people that are all of a sudden... activated 00:20:04.440 --> 00:20:07.500 they're sleepers and because they've opened this 00:20:07.500 --> 00:20:10.500 these people look like they're in a trance and 00:20:10.500 --> 00:20:12.339 they just walk out of their house with the clothes 00:20:12.339 --> 00:20:14.559 on their back and like no shoes nothing just 00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:17.200 whatever they had on because he was thrown in 00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:20.220 the brig hudgens is able to survive while the 00:20:20.220 --> 00:20:22.819 rest of the boat crew doesn't make it hudgens 00:20:22.819 --> 00:20:25.480 pushes open the door after a long time of fighting 00:20:25.480 --> 00:20:28.920 able to get it open and he steals whatever was 00:20:28.920 --> 00:20:32.829 in the relic or in the uh golden sarcophagus, 00:20:32.829 --> 00:20:35.250 essentially, and takes it with him as he leaves. 00:20:35.910 --> 00:20:38.069 After everything has happened, it is the next 00:20:38.069 --> 00:20:41.049 day. Edward didn't sleep well and everything 00:20:41.049 --> 00:20:43.690 like that, and he wakes up to a missed call. 00:20:44.390 --> 00:20:47.609 Basically, his childhood friend John is missing, 00:20:47.710 --> 00:20:50.369 and so he needs to go to the orphanage to find 00:20:50.369 --> 00:20:52.970 out more about what happened to John, why everybody 00:20:52.970 --> 00:20:55.869 disappeared that night, and what it could mean 00:20:55.869 --> 00:20:58.509 because he knows they're connected. Sister Clara 00:20:58.509 --> 00:21:03.339 is there and is really willing to help. And basically 00:21:03.339 --> 00:21:06.839 tells him kind of what happened. Not exactly 00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:08.799 what happened, but kind of what happened. That 00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:12.200 they were experimented on as kids. And that they 00:21:12.200 --> 00:21:14.599 really didn't disappear. Dr. Hudgens kind of 00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:16.880 kidnapped them. But she knew it had something 00:21:16.880 --> 00:21:20.740 to do with the Abkhany. And so now Edward has 00:21:20.740 --> 00:21:23.359 a heading. He knows where to go now. He goes 00:21:23.359 --> 00:21:27.119 to the museum to talk to the lead Abkhany expert. 00:21:27.500 --> 00:21:30.730 Who is played by Tara Reid. That's Aileen. Edward 00:21:30.730 --> 00:21:33.430 walks in and is expecting this big welcome back 00:21:33.430 --> 00:21:36.470 from Aileen. They give a hug. And then as soon 00:21:36.470 --> 00:21:39.130 as they split apart, he is slapped across the 00:21:39.130 --> 00:21:41.369 face. Why did he disappear for three months? 00:21:41.529 --> 00:21:44.450 This is the boyfriend. We got it now. Basically, 00:21:44.509 --> 00:21:46.230 they're going to get away from the security guard 00:21:46.230 --> 00:21:49.450 and they're going to talk it over and be in private. 00:21:49.630 --> 00:21:51.690 And so they have this whole conversation. Not 00:21:51.690 --> 00:21:53.809 a whole lot happens in it. It's just kind of 00:21:53.809 --> 00:21:56.009 like, I'm sorry I was undercover. I couldn't 00:21:56.009 --> 00:21:58.190 tell you I didn't want you to be in danger. That 00:21:58.190 --> 00:22:00.740 kind of thing. She kind of understands she's 00:22:00.740 --> 00:22:02.460 still a little angry, but she kind of understands 00:22:02.460 --> 00:22:06.079 and realizes like it's going to be OK. And then 00:22:06.079 --> 00:22:10.039 the lights start flickering and Edward not only 00:22:10.039 --> 00:22:11.839 pulls out one gun because he has his own gun 00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:14.480 this time, he pulls out two and gives one to 00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:17.079 Aileen because he knows what's about to go down. 00:22:17.720 --> 00:22:20.380 Also, at the same time, the security guard is 00:22:20.380 --> 00:22:23.079 on his own in the museum trying to find out. 00:22:23.309 --> 00:22:25.089 why the lights are flickering, and what's happening. 00:22:25.250 --> 00:22:27.750 And also trying to find Aileen and Edward to 00:22:27.750 --> 00:22:30.009 try to get them out of there. As the security 00:22:30.009 --> 00:22:32.670 guard is looking for them, all of a sudden it 00:22:32.670 --> 00:22:35.089 flashes to Aileen and Edward as they hear him 00:22:35.089 --> 00:22:39.710 scream in the darkness because he has been killed 00:22:39.710 --> 00:22:43.369 by one of these creatures, the Xenos. The Xenos 00:22:43.369 --> 00:22:46.650 can kind of hide themselves in the dark, thus 00:22:46.650 --> 00:22:48.849 alone in the dark. You're not really ever alone 00:22:48.849 --> 00:22:50.829 in the dark. And we get our first look at one 00:22:50.829 --> 00:22:57.940 of them in the CGI. Not very good. Again, this 00:22:57.940 --> 00:23:00.680 is a smaller budget, so I kind of understand 00:23:00.680 --> 00:23:04.000 it, but still, it is not a good look. It is very 00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:07.700 fake, and you can tell you're looking at a third 00:23:07.700 --> 00:23:11.259 -rate CGI studio that put this together. The 00:23:11.259 --> 00:23:14.460 CGI monster is able to scratch Aileen, and I'm 00:23:14.460 --> 00:23:16.420 wondering if it works like zombie rules, if she's 00:23:16.420 --> 00:23:20.319 going to become a Xeno now, and basically runs 00:23:20.319 --> 00:23:23.970 away. Edward and Aileen get to the front of the 00:23:23.970 --> 00:23:26.529 museum after being chased by it. And we think, 00:23:26.529 --> 00:23:28.970 uh -oh, who knows what's going to happen now. 00:23:29.190 --> 00:23:31.490 So now seems like a good time to take a break. 00:23:31.890 --> 00:23:34.730 So as always, we always have a guessing game 00:23:34.730 --> 00:23:38.230 when it comes to our bad movies. And the first 00:23:38.230 --> 00:23:41.089 one to guess the bad movie right that has a podcast 00:23:41.089 --> 00:23:44.170 gets a shout out or gets their promo played on 00:23:44.170 --> 00:23:46.990 the show. The first one to get this time was 00:23:46.990 --> 00:23:50.430 Halloween is Forever podcast at hollow forever. 00:23:51.289 --> 00:23:54.089 They are on X Twitter and that kind of stuff, 00:23:54.210 --> 00:23:57.230 as well as you can listen to their stuff on Apple 00:23:57.230 --> 00:23:59.769 Podcasts, Spotify, all that good stuff, good 00:23:59.769 --> 00:24:03.369 pods even. You can find it everywhere. Basically, 00:24:03.369 --> 00:24:05.369 their description, pick a topic and listen to 00:24:05.369 --> 00:24:08.069 three mutant horror nerds rip each other's guts 00:24:08.069 --> 00:24:10.529 out on the way to deciding whose favorite flick 00:24:10.529 --> 00:24:14.690 reigns supreme. That is Halloween Forever Podcast. 00:24:15.049 --> 00:24:16.809 If you want to know more about them, I am about 00:24:16.809 --> 00:24:19.230 to play their promo. Congratulations, guys, for 00:24:19.230 --> 00:24:22.150 getting it correct. And we'll be back after your 00:24:22.150 --> 00:24:25.609 promo plays.

If you'd 00:24:48.250 --> 00:24:49.970 like to play along as well, I give you three 00:24:49.970 --> 00:24:52.130 hints, usually gifts that are not related to 00:24:52.130 --> 00:24:54.849 the movie in any way, but they have a certain 00:24:54.849 --> 00:24:57.309 clue to them. Use all of them and you can figure 00:24:57.309 --> 00:24:59.710 out the next bad movie yourself and you might 00:24:59.710 --> 00:25:02.049 get your promo featured in the next episode. 00:25:02.789 --> 00:25:05.630 So when we last left off, Aileen and Edward were 00:25:05.630 --> 00:25:07.529 at the front of the museum being chased by one 00:25:07.529 --> 00:25:10.910 of these Xenos and you can't see them. And they 00:25:10.910 --> 00:25:13.130 kind of feel like they're being overmatched because 00:25:13.130 --> 00:25:16.089 they only have two little pistols trying to fight 00:25:16.089 --> 00:25:20.230 off one of these Xenos. Until, through the ceiling, 00:25:20.430 --> 00:25:23.069 through the doors, all these Black Ops Bureau 00:25:23.069 --> 00:25:24.930 people start breaking through the windows and 00:25:24.930 --> 00:25:27.690 start killing off these Xenos. Some of them get 00:25:27.690 --> 00:25:29.609 killed in the crossfire and everything like that, 00:25:29.690 --> 00:25:31.950 which, good. This is not going to be one of those 00:25:31.950 --> 00:25:34.250 the villains can't shoot kind of situations. 00:25:34.470 --> 00:25:36.509 These villains actually know what they're doing. 00:25:36.970 --> 00:25:38.930 The leader of these agents is Commander Burke, 00:25:39.049 --> 00:25:41.970 played by Stephen Dorff. He's now in charge of 00:25:41.970 --> 00:25:44.369 Edward's unit. And this is when we learn that 00:25:44.369 --> 00:25:49.369 Edward basically was part of Bureau 713. He no 00:25:49.369 --> 00:25:51.789 longer is anymore. We don't know why, but he's 00:25:51.789 --> 00:25:53.650 no longer a part of it. But he knows about this 00:25:53.650 --> 00:25:56.230 part of the world and how there's these spooky 00:25:56.230 --> 00:25:58.150 things that go bump in the night and that kind 00:25:58.150 --> 00:26:01.289 of stuff. Commander Burke and him, obviously 00:26:01.289 --> 00:26:04.410 two macho men going head to head against each 00:26:04.410 --> 00:26:06.920 other. You can tell right off the bat, there's 00:26:06.920 --> 00:26:10.319 sparks of the fact that they are going to be 00:26:10.319 --> 00:26:13.079 against each other for a little while. They get 00:26:13.079 --> 00:26:15.319 into a mini pissing match is what I call it. 00:26:15.380 --> 00:26:19.740 And Edward steals an ID card off of Burke. Why 00:26:19.740 --> 00:26:21.859 do you steal that ID card? You might be asking. 00:26:21.900 --> 00:26:24.140 Well, it's because he needs a little more information. 00:26:24.160 --> 00:26:26.500 He's going to use the ID card to look it up on 00:26:26.500 --> 00:26:30.410 a Bureau 713 computer. He gets himself in and 00:26:30.410 --> 00:26:33.730 is able to do some research, obviously, hacking, 00:26:33.990 --> 00:26:36.250 it's cool, and everything like that. You know, 00:26:36.289 --> 00:26:38.950 even though you have an ID card, you probably 00:26:38.950 --> 00:26:40.990 still have a password system and everything like 00:26:40.990 --> 00:26:43.349 that, but he's able to figure it out pretty easily 00:26:43.349 --> 00:26:46.529 and get in. He found out that the original sleeper 00:26:46.529 --> 00:26:50.529 that he killed was a former 713 agent. Uh -oh, 00:26:50.569 --> 00:26:53.250 that's a problem. He also is talking to this 00:26:53.250 --> 00:26:55.869 guy, Fisher. Fisher is played by Frank Turner. 00:26:58.990 --> 00:27:02.130 a colleague of Edward. He works for Bureau 713, 00:27:02.250 --> 00:27:04.930 and he's basically his guy on the inside. He's 00:27:04.930 --> 00:27:06.789 been working with Fisher, and Fisher is able 00:27:06.789 --> 00:27:10.869 to tell him that he has this creature inside 00:27:10.869 --> 00:27:13.450 of him, as well as the rest of the sleepers that 00:27:13.450 --> 00:27:16.210 were at this orphanage. Basically, these creatures 00:27:16.210 --> 00:27:18.690 called the Xenos, and they are the ones that 00:27:18.690 --> 00:27:23.049 take over once the Mama Xeno, I guess, or the 00:27:23.049 --> 00:27:26.980 main Xenos are woken up. through this device 00:27:26.980 --> 00:27:29.460 that Hudgens found in the middle of the ocean. 00:27:29.799 --> 00:27:32.079 Now, Edward's worried because he knows he has 00:27:32.079 --> 00:27:34.460 one of these Xenos inside him. But because when 00:27:34.460 --> 00:27:37.640 he was a kid, he got electrocuted trying to escape 00:27:37.640 --> 00:27:41.359 from Hudgens and his crew. It killed it and basically 00:27:41.359 --> 00:27:43.900 electrocuted the Xeno, killed it inside of him. 00:27:44.019 --> 00:27:46.740 It's still there, but he's not being taken over 00:27:46.740 --> 00:27:49.279 and made into a sleeper because of it. Meanwhile, 00:27:49.339 --> 00:27:51.980 at the same time, we see that Hudgens has taken 00:27:51.980 --> 00:27:54.500 the blood of one of these Xenos and he injects 00:27:54.500 --> 00:27:58.359 himself with it to kind of get like powered up, 00:27:58.440 --> 00:28:01.160 I guess. So after being given this information 00:28:01.160 --> 00:28:04.180 from Fisher, Edward heads back to his apartment, 00:28:04.359 --> 00:28:09.119 house, whatever. It's like one big room and meets 00:28:09.119 --> 00:28:11.279 up with Aileen so that they can kind of try to 00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:12.980 figure out where these Xenos are coming from, 00:28:13.059 --> 00:28:14.920 what they can do to get rid of them, that kind 00:28:14.920 --> 00:28:17.410 of stuff. After doing a little bit of research, 00:28:17.529 --> 00:28:19.069 and I mean a little bit because it's probably 00:28:19.069 --> 00:28:21.710 30 seconds worth of research, they find out that 00:28:21.710 --> 00:28:25.049 the Xenos, and more specifically Dr. Hudgens, 00:28:25.109 --> 00:28:28.710 has been going to this abandoned mine. And so 00:28:28.710 --> 00:28:30.670 now they know where to go. But of course, as 00:28:30.670 --> 00:28:32.589 soon as they uncover that, they start getting 00:28:32.589 --> 00:28:36.829 attacked by sleepers, including John, Edward's 00:28:36.829 --> 00:28:39.130 best friend from when he was a child at the orphanage. 00:28:39.440 --> 00:28:41.559 This is when things go crazy because the lights 00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:45.759 go out and Bureau 713 comes and basically you 00:28:45.759 --> 00:28:48.579 can't tell what's going on. And I know in Yuva 00:28:48.579 --> 00:28:51.420 Bull's mind, he has this amazing scene in his 00:28:51.420 --> 00:28:53.740 head. It basically is going to be like flashing 00:28:53.740 --> 00:28:57.059 lights and you kind of get images of stuff and 00:28:57.059 --> 00:29:00.019 they have all these guns and they just start 00:29:00.019 --> 00:29:02.799 firing. It's just poo, poo, poo, poo, poo. And 00:29:02.799 --> 00:29:05.240 there's creatures, there's guns, there's flashing 00:29:05.240 --> 00:29:07.779 lights. Plus there's this hardcore metal song. 00:29:08.329 --> 00:29:11.049 And I know the scene he sees in his head, but 00:29:11.049 --> 00:29:13.690 it just does not translate onto the screen. It's 00:29:13.690 --> 00:29:17.170 absolutely horrible, including the sleepers that 00:29:17.170 --> 00:29:19.369 show up in the flashing lights and everything 00:29:19.369 --> 00:29:24.109 like that. You could tell he was trying to differentiate 00:29:24.109 --> 00:29:27.130 humans versus sleepers. So you can tell the characters 00:29:27.130 --> 00:29:29.250 are different and everything like that. But basically 00:29:29.250 --> 00:29:32.190 the idea was they were just going to wear like 00:29:32.190 --> 00:29:35.210 paling makeup. So they only kind of seem like. 00:29:35.839 --> 00:29:38.079 They seem like horrible zombie makeup, you know, 00:29:38.099 --> 00:29:40.039 not even the good stuff that you can see on like 00:29:40.039 --> 00:29:41.720 an episode of The Walking Dead or something like 00:29:41.720 --> 00:29:43.400 that. It literally is like they painted them 00:29:43.400 --> 00:29:45.859 white and they're going to be these sleepers. 00:29:46.099 --> 00:29:49.000 Of course, Commander Burke is part of the Bureau 00:29:49.000 --> 00:29:51.859 713 agents that have made it in there. He gets 00:29:51.859 --> 00:29:54.599 his gun hit away from him and he has this kung 00:29:54.599 --> 00:29:56.859 fu sequence with these sleepers and takes out 00:29:56.859 --> 00:30:01.259 like three of them. And Edward is away from him 00:30:01.259 --> 00:30:04.279 and Burke's just like, Edward! Edward's like 00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:06.660 running away and with Aileen and everything like 00:30:06.660 --> 00:30:10.220 that and so they're ahead of Burke but then all 00:30:10.220 --> 00:30:13.619 of a sudden you just hear Edward go Burke and 00:30:13.619 --> 00:30:16.900 he looks at him and Edward shoots right past 00:30:16.900 --> 00:30:18.960 him and takes out two sleepers like right through 00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:23.039 the head and this was enough that when Burke 00:30:23.039 --> 00:30:25.539 finally catches up with them they're like okay 00:30:25.539 --> 00:30:27.740 we're going to the mine you're coming with me 00:30:27.740 --> 00:30:30.740 because you're cool it's also funny because now 00:30:30.740 --> 00:30:34.640 that they know where the mine is the Bureau 713 00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:38.700 people, especially this one that sits behind 00:30:38.700 --> 00:30:41.319 a desk pretty much the entire time, is kind of 00:30:41.319 --> 00:30:45.000 like, cool, we've now figured out all of these 00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:49.299 Xenos are centralized right here in this one 00:30:49.299 --> 00:30:52.640 spot. Like, you couldn't figure that out? It's 00:30:52.640 --> 00:30:55.660 been 30 years. Edward grew up with a Xeno inside 00:30:55.660 --> 00:30:57.880 him, and you couldn't figure out where the Xenos 00:30:57.880 --> 00:31:01.220 were? This is the part. where things get a little 00:31:01.220 --> 00:31:03.759 crazy. I completely forgot at one point, and 00:31:03.759 --> 00:31:05.559 more so because I just didn't think he came back 00:31:05.559 --> 00:31:09.500 into the picture. Fisher was kidnapped by Hudgens, 00:31:09.599 --> 00:31:11.940 and he was fed a Xeno, so now he's kind of a 00:31:11.940 --> 00:31:15.500 sleeper. This does come back in the next five 00:31:15.500 --> 00:31:18.660 seconds of this explanation. So they set up a 00:31:18.660 --> 00:31:21.960 perimeter around the mine. They know that Burke, 00:31:22.140 --> 00:31:25.019 Edward, Aileen, and a couple soldiers are going 00:31:25.019 --> 00:31:28.180 to go down in the mine and try to put down all 00:31:28.180 --> 00:31:31.420 the Xenos. But they also know that all the Xenos 00:31:31.420 --> 00:31:33.539 that are already outside of the mine will come. 00:31:33.660 --> 00:31:35.940 So they put up this perimeter, including with 00:31:35.940 --> 00:31:39.779 the generator that puts out light because these 00:31:39.779 --> 00:31:42.980 creatures are best in the dark. So Burke, as 00:31:42.980 --> 00:31:45.480 he's getting ready, is basically like, I want 00:31:45.480 --> 00:31:48.279 all these people here. I want every last one 00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:50.740 of them, everybody that we can get, get them 00:31:50.740 --> 00:31:52.779 here so that they can come help us so we can 00:31:52.779 --> 00:31:55.160 take out the mine. And then he's basically, Edward 00:31:55.160 --> 00:31:57.220 Aileen, you're with me. Three other soldiers. 00:31:57.319 --> 00:31:59.420 Come on. Let's do it. We have our team of six. 00:31:59.480 --> 00:32:03.579 We're good. And they go into the mine alone in 00:32:03.579 --> 00:32:06.960 the dark. You're welcome. This is not just any 00:32:06.960 --> 00:32:09.900 mine, by the way. This is the Abkhany mine. The 00:32:09.900 --> 00:32:12.799 Abkhany mine is loaded with traps because they 00:32:12.799 --> 00:32:16.519 wanted people to not be able to release the Xenos. 00:32:16.799 --> 00:32:19.039 So right off the bat, they fall down this trap. 00:32:19.220 --> 00:32:22.599 And Marco, one of the guys, is spiked to death, 00:32:22.680 --> 00:32:25.019 falls on these spikes and is absolutely just 00:32:25.019 --> 00:32:28.210 gone. So there you go. Now we've got our three 00:32:28.210 --> 00:32:31.009 heroes and two other soldiers are still alive. 00:32:31.289 --> 00:32:33.049 At the beginning of the fight, when the Xenos 00:32:33.049 --> 00:32:38.029 start coming, it's pretty even because the Bureau 00:32:38.029 --> 00:32:40.470 713 guys are able to see them. So they're able 00:32:40.470 --> 00:32:43.569 to fire early on and everything like that. But 00:32:43.569 --> 00:32:46.009 one of the people that slips past the defenses 00:32:46.009 --> 00:32:48.569 because he looks just like Fisher is Sleeper 00:32:48.569 --> 00:32:51.309 Fisher. Sleeper Fisher goes to the generator 00:32:51.309 --> 00:32:55.559 and basically pulls a grenade. Off of this guy's 00:32:55.559 --> 00:32:57.759 or pulls a grenade pin off of this guy's belt 00:32:57.759 --> 00:33:00.259 and just blows himself and the generator and 00:33:00.259 --> 00:33:02.480 the guy up all at once. So now they're alone 00:33:02.480 --> 00:33:05.539 in the dark. Yes, I'm going to keep saying that 00:33:05.539 --> 00:33:07.779 because it's fun how many times they made sure 00:33:07.779 --> 00:33:11.500 they were alone in the dark. Also, some of the 00:33:11.500 --> 00:33:13.400 things that were funny about this is the perimeter 00:33:13.400 --> 00:33:16.299 soldiers. Basically, they start opening fire. 00:33:16.640 --> 00:33:19.599 And after like two shots, this guy reloads his 00:33:19.599 --> 00:33:23.710 gun. And I'm like. So you went into a fight without 00:33:23.710 --> 00:33:26.529 reloading. Like you're not reloaded. You only 00:33:26.529 --> 00:33:28.650 had like two bullets and then said, cool, reload. 00:33:29.710 --> 00:33:32.210 You knew that you were going to be fighting enemies. 00:33:32.289 --> 00:33:35.569 You had time to prepare. And yet you still decided, 00:33:35.690 --> 00:33:37.089 oh, two bullets and then I'm going to reload. 00:33:37.349 --> 00:33:39.789 As this is happening, we see people lose from 00:33:39.789 --> 00:33:43.750 both sides. Basically, the small team in the 00:33:43.750 --> 00:33:46.369 mine loses someone. And then some of the people 00:33:46.369 --> 00:33:49.529 that you kind of met at the perimeter, they go 00:33:49.529 --> 00:33:52.279 and everything like that. There's a spot where 00:33:52.279 --> 00:33:54.099 there's blood on the camera and it's definitely 00:33:54.099 --> 00:33:56.359 like a guy acting like he got killed. It's not 00:33:56.359 --> 00:33:59.099 very good because you can't see the creature 00:33:59.099 --> 00:34:01.559 because it's in the darkness and everything like 00:34:01.559 --> 00:34:04.980 that. It's just really bad. The small group with 00:34:04.980 --> 00:34:06.980 the three heroes and then like one other soldier, 00:34:07.059 --> 00:34:10.199 they find the experimentation room. And they 00:34:10.199 --> 00:34:13.320 find out that it's not just Hudgens who's been 00:34:13.320 --> 00:34:16.519 behind these experiments, but Bureau 713 has 00:34:16.519 --> 00:34:19.969 been behind it too. And they find a monologuing 00:34:19.969 --> 00:34:23.309 Dr. Hudgens. He's basically telling them all 00:34:23.309 --> 00:34:26.869 about how we can be better. We can be these sleepers, 00:34:26.869 --> 00:34:29.210 half man, half creature and everything like that. 00:34:29.349 --> 00:34:35.210 He also is holding a rifle on them and he's using 00:34:35.210 --> 00:34:37.250 the scope and he's basically point blank from 00:34:37.250 --> 00:34:42.010 all three of them. So Hudgens. Basically, holding 00:34:42.010 --> 00:34:44.010 them at gunpoint gets all the relics he needs. 00:34:44.090 --> 00:34:46.349 He needed three relics to open the door so he 00:34:46.349 --> 00:34:48.630 can release all of the Xenos. Basically, he was 00:34:48.630 --> 00:34:50.610 getting them all like one at a time or something 00:34:50.610 --> 00:34:52.329 like that. They were finding a way out or something. 00:34:52.670 --> 00:34:55.289 Now he's able to get the millions and millions 00:34:55.289 --> 00:34:57.929 of them. He's able to open the dark world and 00:34:57.929 --> 00:35:01.469 let them into our world. As the door opens, Burke 00:35:01.469 --> 00:35:04.769 is able to toss a knife into him and kill him 00:35:04.769 --> 00:35:06.869 immediately without him getting a single shot 00:35:06.869 --> 00:35:09.530 off at any of them. The Xenos don't really do 00:35:09.530 --> 00:35:11.190 anything. They're just kind of there and they're 00:35:11.190 --> 00:35:12.929 just like hanging out. They don't really move 00:35:12.929 --> 00:35:14.750 towards the door or anything like that. Nothing 00:35:14.750 --> 00:35:19.610 happens after Burke has killed Dr. Hudgens, but 00:35:19.610 --> 00:35:22.610 they know they need to destroy it in order to 00:35:22.610 --> 00:35:25.869 save the day and everything. They close the door. 00:35:26.309 --> 00:35:31.590 Hudgens goes out, finds a mine or like a time 00:35:31.590 --> 00:35:33.869 bomb kind of thing. And it's basically like, 00:35:33.909 --> 00:35:39.050 you guys go, I'll be behind you. And as Edward 00:35:39.050 --> 00:35:41.869 and Aileen are going kind of realize it's one 00:35:41.869 --> 00:35:43.989 of those like sacrifice situations, like Burke's 00:35:43.989 --> 00:35:46.750 going to sacrifice himself. The issue is he has 00:35:46.750 --> 00:35:50.130 a time bomb and like he can set it probably for 00:35:50.130 --> 00:35:52.409 a lot more than he did. He sets it for five seconds. 00:35:53.010 --> 00:35:55.630 They were able to close the door to the Zenos. 00:35:55.889 --> 00:35:57.789 They could probably still get through somehow, 00:35:57.889 --> 00:36:00.210 but he knows like he needs to open it and make 00:36:00.210 --> 00:36:03.409 sure they get all of the kaboom. So he opens 00:36:03.409 --> 00:36:07.949 the door. He throws the. uh he was able to shoot 00:36:07.949 --> 00:36:12.570 at them toss the bomb in and basically then runs 00:36:12.570 --> 00:36:16.030 away so horrible cgi explosion and you see him 00:36:16.030 --> 00:36:19.050 kind of slow motion diving edward and aileen 00:36:19.050 --> 00:36:23.530 are being chased by fire in the cave system and 00:36:23.530 --> 00:36:26.030 everything like that we see them open up like 00:36:26.030 --> 00:36:29.599 these storm doors that would be for like a tornado 00:36:29.599 --> 00:36:31.840 in the midwest kind of thing that are going underneath 00:36:31.840 --> 00:36:34.800 they're able to open these like barnstorm doors 00:36:34.800 --> 00:36:38.519 they are free and they're basically unharmed 00:36:38.519 --> 00:36:40.860 and then we see burke and he's actually alive 00:36:40.860 --> 00:36:43.559 down in the experimentation room somehow somehow 00:36:43.559 --> 00:36:46.840 he's made it it doesn't come back maybe he's 00:36:46.840 --> 00:36:50.940 in alone in the dark too but he doesn't die in 00:36:50.940 --> 00:36:54.380 this one as edward and aileen are getting up 00:36:54.380 --> 00:36:57.219 off the ground after the explosion They realize 00:36:57.219 --> 00:37:00.400 that these storm barn doors were right under 00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:04.880 the orphanage the entire time. Bureau 713 definitely 00:37:04.880 --> 00:37:07.699 knew about this. The orphanage was set up there 00:37:07.699 --> 00:37:10.820 as a way to get experimentation, children, that 00:37:10.820 --> 00:37:14.159 kind of stuff. Sister Clara is dead in the orphanage, 00:37:14.159 --> 00:37:16.480 and they realize that the entire city has been 00:37:16.480 --> 00:37:18.880 evacuated. And so they're walking through the 00:37:18.880 --> 00:37:21.159 city and it's completely empty. There's not a 00:37:21.159 --> 00:37:24.480 sound. And they talk about when they opened the 00:37:24.480 --> 00:37:26.699 door, the Abkanis were wiped off the face of 00:37:26.699 --> 00:37:29.099 the earth. Now that the door has been reopened, 00:37:29.119 --> 00:37:30.940 has it happened again? Because they're thinking 00:37:30.940 --> 00:37:33.340 it was evacuated at first. Now they're wondering 00:37:33.340 --> 00:37:38.239 if the people are just all gone. And then a Xeno 00:37:38.239 --> 00:37:41.239 comes out of nowhere attacking at Edward. It's 00:37:41.239 --> 00:37:46.139 the camera POV and end scene. That's Alone in 00:37:46.139 --> 00:37:48.340 the Dark. And there's a sequel to this, Alone 00:37:48.340 --> 00:37:50.480 in the Dark 2. It doesn't have any of the same 00:37:50.480 --> 00:37:56.139 cast, but it does exist. Yeah. Where do I start 00:37:56.139 --> 00:37:58.480 on this one? I mean, we can start with the cast 00:37:58.480 --> 00:38:00.639 first. Let's talk about that first. Christian 00:38:00.639 --> 00:38:04.940 Slater was like the stereotypical 90s action 00:38:04.940 --> 00:38:06.860 guy and everything like that. So I guess he makes 00:38:06.860 --> 00:38:10.679 sense. Tara Reid, terrible casting. Stephen Dorff 00:38:10.679 --> 00:38:13.739 was miserable. The one I liked the most was the 00:38:13.739 --> 00:38:15.480 security guard, I think. I think he was the one 00:38:15.480 --> 00:38:18.000 I liked the absolute most. Everything else after 00:38:18.000 --> 00:38:20.460 that was just kind of like, yeah, this is all 00:38:20.460 --> 00:38:23.179 right, I guess. Christian Slater probably was 00:38:23.179 --> 00:38:26.239 okay for this movie, for the level of cheese 00:38:26.239 --> 00:38:29.519 and everything like that it needed. Was it great? 00:38:29.659 --> 00:38:35.730 No, not even close. And obviously... they didn't 00:38:35.730 --> 00:38:37.530 want to be in the second one or they didn't need 00:38:37.530 --> 00:38:39.829 to be in the second one because alone in the 00:38:39.829 --> 00:38:44.449 dark 2 had a completely different cast none of 00:38:44.449 --> 00:38:46.230 these guys made it to the second movie which 00:38:46.230 --> 00:38:49.010 is probably for the best for them honestly so 00:38:49.010 --> 00:38:50.909 this movie was nominated for a couple awards 00:38:50.909 --> 00:38:53.530 and i just want to give you what awards they 00:38:53.530 --> 00:38:55.650 were nominated for and which ones they won they 00:38:55.650 --> 00:38:57.489 were nominated for the dallas fort worth film 00:38:57.489 --> 00:39:00.210 critics association awards worst film And they 00:39:00.210 --> 00:39:03.050 were the winner for that in 2005. Worst Director 00:39:03.050 --> 00:39:05.570 and Worst Actress nominees for The Razzies for 00:39:05.570 --> 00:39:08.969 Tara Reid and Yuva Bull. Golden Schmoes gave 00:39:08.969 --> 00:39:11.650 it the Worst Movie of the Year nominee. And the 00:39:11.650 --> 00:39:15.130 Stinker's Bad Movie Awards, we had the winner 00:39:15.130 --> 00:39:17.610 of Worst Picture, the winner of Worst Sense of 00:39:17.610 --> 00:39:20.710 Direction, nominee for Worst Song or Song Performance 00:39:20.710 --> 00:39:23.929 in a Film or End Credits, and the 2005 winner 00:39:23.929 --> 00:39:27.190 for Least Special, Special Effects. So there 00:39:27.190 --> 00:39:30.320 you go. There's some of the... The great things 00:39:30.320 --> 00:39:34.219 that it won awards for. The funny thing about 00:39:34.219 --> 00:39:36.460 this movie is that it was just predictable and 00:39:36.460 --> 00:39:39.659 it was boring. That's usually a death sentence 00:39:39.659 --> 00:39:41.800 for a movie, especially something like this where 00:39:41.800 --> 00:39:44.440 it could have actually been a lot of fun. And 00:39:44.440 --> 00:39:45.940 a lot of people have problems with it because 00:39:45.940 --> 00:39:50.239 it was definitely astray of the video game players' 00:39:50.519 --> 00:39:54.360 feelings of it. YuvaBall made a movie that he 00:39:54.360 --> 00:39:56.500 just wanted to make and they tied it in by calling 00:39:56.500 --> 00:40:00.190 it Alone in the Dark. I don't think it actually 00:40:00.190 --> 00:40:02.829 is an Alone in the Dark movie, if you understand 00:40:02.829 --> 00:40:05.730 what I'm saying by that. I love the fact that 00:40:05.730 --> 00:40:08.869 this movie is described as a horror movie. It 00:40:08.869 --> 00:40:11.989 falls into the action horror sci -fi stuff. There's 00:40:11.989 --> 00:40:13.869 nothing scary about it. You can show it to a 00:40:13.869 --> 00:40:15.630 toddler and they'll be fine, except for probably 00:40:15.630 --> 00:40:19.130 the blood. Truthfully, this movie is very harmful. 00:40:19.519 --> 00:40:21.920 And the fact that somebody was allowed to make 00:40:21.920 --> 00:40:24.579 it and somebody was allowed to let this happen. 00:40:24.719 --> 00:40:27.480 And not only did they make it, they made a sequel 00:40:27.480 --> 00:40:30.920 and more movies like it. This movie is just a 00:40:30.920 --> 00:40:32.980 waste of time. It's an hour and a half. That's 00:40:32.980 --> 00:40:37.539 the good thing. And not great. I don't know what 00:40:37.539 --> 00:40:39.300 I can say about this movie that hasn't been said 00:40:39.300 --> 00:40:42.400 already about it. It's the creature design is 00:40:42.400 --> 00:40:45.099 awful. The CGI is terrible. The line dialogue 00:40:45.099 --> 00:40:48.869 is. The dialogue in this movie is awful. The 00:40:48.869 --> 00:40:52.849 acting is atrocious and over the top. And I don't 00:40:52.849 --> 00:40:55.449 know how you expect it to be different. That's 00:40:55.449 --> 00:40:58.329 the thing about it. It would be one thing if 00:40:58.329 --> 00:41:01.070 these guys did something different than what 00:41:01.070 --> 00:41:03.150 they normally do. It's Christian Slater and Tara 00:41:03.150 --> 00:41:05.730 Reid. They're going to do the performances you 00:41:05.730 --> 00:41:08.750 know they give. And that's not a bad thing for 00:41:08.750 --> 00:41:10.690 certain movies. Certain movies, you want that 00:41:10.690 --> 00:41:14.460 kind of thing. This movie... You knew what you 00:41:14.460 --> 00:41:16.159 were going to get with the lines of dialogue 00:41:16.159 --> 00:41:18.539 that you put in there and the actors you have 00:41:18.539 --> 00:41:21.480 in the situation. And that's my issue with it 00:41:21.480 --> 00:41:25.760 is how did you not see it coming? How did you 00:41:25.760 --> 00:41:28.480 not see it as a red flag? How did you not understand 00:41:28.480 --> 00:41:34.760 where this was going? Especially because you 00:41:34.760 --> 00:41:39.019 were given multiple scripts and that's another 00:41:39.019 --> 00:41:41.960 thing. How did you not see it? That's the worst 00:41:41.960 --> 00:41:45.619 part is I think they did because one of the conversations 00:41:45.619 --> 00:41:50.579 about this movie was the fact that somebody wrote 00:41:50.579 --> 00:41:54.300 a proof of this script and Uwe Boll turned it 00:41:54.300 --> 00:41:57.360 down saying there's not enough car chases. So 00:41:57.360 --> 00:41:59.719 you can say, oh, I expected to see this and be 00:41:59.719 --> 00:42:03.099 like, oh, it was exactly what I expected because 00:42:03.099 --> 00:42:07.780 it's just what I expected. And then there's people 00:42:07.780 --> 00:42:10.760 that are like. This is exactly what I expected 00:42:10.760 --> 00:42:13.840 because this is what we're going to get no matter 00:42:13.840 --> 00:42:17.059 what happened. So Uwe Boll, I feel like, knew 00:42:17.059 --> 00:42:20.039 where this was going. And that's the funny thing 00:42:20.039 --> 00:42:23.239 about it all is I think we could have gotten 00:42:23.239 --> 00:42:26.820 a much better movie if somebody in this process 00:42:26.820 --> 00:42:29.659 would have looked at it and said, hey, dude, 00:42:29.900 --> 00:42:33.739 you don't know what you're doing. So yeah, that's 00:42:33.739 --> 00:42:36.199 Alone in the Dark. I'm going to give it a... 00:42:38.000 --> 00:42:41.139 God, I feel bad because obviously we have the 00:42:41.139 --> 00:42:43.880 Mitchell Zero, which is a .5. But I feel bad. 00:42:43.940 --> 00:42:46.360 I can't give it a .5. I can't. And I know there's 00:42:46.360 --> 00:42:48.139 so many people that worked on this movie that 00:42:48.139 --> 00:42:52.800 deserve better because I'm sure they were just 00:42:52.800 --> 00:42:55.059 happy to be working on a movie. But I'm going 00:42:55.059 --> 00:42:58.119 to give it a zero. I just have to. I absolutely 00:42:58.119 --> 00:43:02.519 have to because this movie was terrible. It is 00:43:02.519 --> 00:43:06.320 currently sitting at the fourth worst movie I've 00:43:06.320 --> 00:43:10.860 watched. For this podcast. And it has bad company. 00:43:11.059 --> 00:43:14.840 And. The only reason I say it's fourth worst. 00:43:14.980 --> 00:43:16.719 Is because there are some parts that actually 00:43:16.719 --> 00:43:18.980 made me laugh. In it. I don't think they were 00:43:18.980 --> 00:43:21.039 supposed to. But there were some parts where 00:43:21.039 --> 00:43:25.159 I actually kind of chuckled out loud. And. Enjoyed 00:43:25.159 --> 00:43:27.360 part of it. Or at least smiled at part of it. 00:43:27.739 --> 00:43:29.920 The other movies that are at the bottom of this. 00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:33.079 They didn't even do that. So I'm going to give 00:43:33.079 --> 00:43:35.980 it a zero out of five. And I'm going to give 00:43:35.980 --> 00:43:39.809 it. chest bursters that don't burst out your 00:43:39.809 --> 00:43:41.849 chest, because that's what the Xenos were. That 00:43:41.849 --> 00:43:43.269 was definitely what they were trying for anyway. 00:43:43.449 --> 00:43:46.750 It's down in your stomach. They didn't ever burst 00:43:46.750 --> 00:43:48.469 out, but that's what they were trying for, I 00:43:48.469 --> 00:43:51.750 think. So yeah, that's Alone in the Dark. That's 00:43:51.750 --> 00:43:55.289 the worst movie ever released in January of all 00:43:55.289 --> 00:43:58.750 time, or one of them anyway. If there's one you 00:43:58.750 --> 00:44:00.590 want to see for February, obviously we're going 00:44:00.590 --> 00:44:02.690 to do a lot of Razzie's coverage of the movies 00:44:02.690 --> 00:44:06.400 that came out this past year that... are nominated 00:44:06.400 --> 00:44:09.000 for worst picture and worst actress and stuff 00:44:09.000 --> 00:44:11.980 like that. Worst actor, because I don't want 00:44:11.980 --> 00:44:14.860 to just do worst actress. Tell us some movies 00:44:14.860 --> 00:44:16.739 you think we should have on our list if there's 00:44:16.739 --> 00:44:20.480 some worst of February or worst Valentine's Day 00:44:20.480 --> 00:44:22.780 movies. Rom -coms, there's a bunch of terrible 00:44:22.780 --> 00:44:24.980 ones that we've done in the past. There's a bunch 00:44:24.980 --> 00:44:27.719 of terrible ones we can continue to do. Vampire 00:44:27.719 --> 00:44:31.119 Boys and Vampire Boys 2 was part of our Valentine's 00:44:31.119 --> 00:44:35.829 Day love episodes. So we definitely have some 00:44:35.829 --> 00:44:38.230 fun ones like that. One of the ones that came 00:44:38.230 --> 00:44:40.449 to mind immediately was the hottie and the naughty 00:44:40.449 --> 00:44:44.750 starring Paris Hilton. Tell me if you guys got 00:44:44.750 --> 00:44:47.429 some ideas, reach out to us at game for a movie, 00:44:47.530 --> 00:44:50.429 basically everywhere. Yeah.
