Staff Meeting: Halloween Playlist Part V: A New Beginning

[00:00:04] Speaker A: Welcome listener to the return slot. That was beautiful. That was beautiful. Thank you, Mickey. Okay, we got a staff. We're doing a staff meeting up. This is a staff meeting. It's the video store. It's closed. We're in the basement. It's. It's a big. It's. Oh, man, I'm. I'm flustered. I'm flustered. Chris is here. [00:00:28] Speaker B: I broke in. [00:00:29] Speaker A: He broke in. [00:00:30] Speaker B: I have a key. I just broke in. [00:00:31] Speaker C: Anyway, no, he's been here the whole time. Just in the corner. While we've been recording Halloween stuff, all the. [00:00:38] Speaker A: All the staff meeting Halloween episodes, Chris has just been watching from the corners, eating still popcorn and living off of gross socks and beer. Yeah, don't. Yeah, socks. Right. [00:00:52] Speaker B: Well, living off. [00:00:53] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:00:54] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:00:55] Speaker A: That's the only thing of sustenance. [00:00:57] Speaker C: Yeah. It probably tastes better than the sale. Popcorn. [00:01:00] Speaker B: Some sort of, like sad homeless person stew. Like dirty socks. [00:01:04] Speaker A: Well, no, no, not. Not sad homeless person. Happy video store squad. So it's. The week of Halloween is a big deal. We have to curate. This is our. Our Part 5 Halloween playlist. A new beginning. [00:01:22] Speaker D: Love it. [00:01:22] Speaker A: You like that? [00:01:23] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:01:28] Speaker A: Now, some of you might be like, where's part four? It's a secret episode. We never released it. This is part five, a new beginning. And we're curating for the video store. The perfect Halloween playlist. Now, in the past, we've had some controversy with mostly Mickey's picks, not mine. My picks are very Halloweeny, totally normal. But Chris is joining us for the playlist for the first time, which I'm very excited about, because Chris. Chris is a music guy. [00:01:57] Speaker B: Mickey, you know the songs that Michelangelo picks, that make sense. [00:02:00] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:02:01] Speaker B: They came from me. [00:02:02] Speaker C: I know. Oh, I. I'm aware. This is actually aware how often he's stolen songs. [00:02:06] Speaker A: He's like, this is not stolen. No. If you go back. If you go back and listen to the episodes. I do mention that, like, if. If Chris had introduced, like the first season was the. The wi. The. You know, the. The man. The. The witchy one. What's the witchy one, Chris? [00:02:24] Speaker B: Oh, Blood Ceremony. [00:02:25] Speaker A: Blood Ceremony. Chris introduced me to Blood Ceremony Chris. Like, I used to play on my ipod at the coffee shop. I would play stuff, and it was basically in all of stuff that. From burn CDs that Chris gave me back a long time ago. [00:02:42] Speaker C: Little love, little lovely mixtapes. [00:02:45] Speaker A: I have, like, I don't know, like, 40 albums that Chris burned me. And I have not listened to all of that. I mean, this is. This is the thing about these episodes is like music Halloween. It's like such a big deal, right? And it's like I'm just not a huge into music, so these are always difficult episodes for me. So I'm really excited to have someone who likes, who knows so much about music and is so excited. And then Mickey, I guess you're okay. [00:03:16] Speaker C: Yeah. Well, I will say I was in the day of Napster and Bear share and Lime. Was it Limewire? [00:03:23] Speaker B: Limewire. Hell yeah. I ruined my parents computer with that. [00:03:26] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:03:26] Speaker C: Yeah. But I used to, I used to make tapes or mixed CDs for all my friends and like all them were thematic. All of them. So this is like, it is something that I just like to do. Do. I like to curate. I like to like, you know, and, and sometimes obscure, sometimes just absolutely on the nose. If you listen to our playlist, there's so many songs on that playlist right now. I mean it's, it's massive. I tried not to duplicate anything for tonight just so we could have all fresh new picks. [00:03:56] Speaker A: I gotta say, as someone who's been your friend for a very long time, I have never received one of these mix. [00:04:02] Speaker C: They're, they are, they are reserved for certain people. [00:04:06] Speaker A: Not me. [00:04:09] Speaker C: Chris has gotten like 20. [00:04:11] Speaker B: That's true. They're great. [00:04:12] Speaker A: It does make sense. It does make sense. I get it. He's a very lovable guy. Now before we get into the Halloween playlist, by the way, Halloween Playlist, Part 5, A New Beginning. Marika helped me out with that. Marika, who is in all of our previous playlist episodes. We love you. [00:04:31] Speaker B: We miss you. [00:04:32] Speaker C: We love you. We miss you. [00:04:34] Speaker A: Now before we hop into the music, what you don't say her name. Which you didn't. Chris. Now our previous episodes, we did a Halloween hangout, which is like the perfect horror Halloween autumn movie to watch in a hangout setting. And Halloween Hickeys, Consensual makeout massacre. Perfect Halloween movies for like first dates or romance or, or a date night or, or makeout session. And I did want to get like your thoughts on those films. Do you have any. Let's start it with the Halloween hangout movies. Do you have any, like go to Halloween hangout movies? [00:05:16] Speaker B: Not really. I mean, like, I kind of think I. I feel like anything can kind of fall into that for me at least. Like, I think it's also like, I don't know, I can think of like, I spent a lot of time, my early 20s into my early 30s, I think, going to a lot of like bars that Would throw on, like, random ass films. And so, like, you know what I mean? Like, for me, like, anything can be in the background if you're having a good time now, if you're, like, trying to, like, all watch it and that type of thing. [00:05:42] Speaker A: I'll watch it together. Yes. It's a hangout. Halloween hangout. We're. So we're doing a screening. A bunch of. [00:05:46] Speaker B: You're not hanging while it's in the background. You mean, like, you're. It's your focal point. [00:05:50] Speaker A: It's your. It's. It's. It's either. Yeah, you're watching it, whether you're, you know, commenting on it because of how bad it is, or you, like, you get lost in the movie. You are hanging out. It's an event with friends watching this movie. [00:06:06] Speaker B: I mean, like, I. I think you can do something really, especially. I think a lot of my friends aren't necessarily big horror film people, but they still want that kind of Halloween vibe. So, like, I can think of, like, I've had a successful kind of like. More again, to your point, focus. Watch on the movie, like, experience with, like, Hocus Pocus. Something that's very, like, warm, cozy. Hang out with your friends. But then also, too, it's something that you. Even if you are necessarily watching it, you still can break off in a conversation. And it's not like I'm missing a cue. Important thing. You know what I mean? That type of thing. [00:06:42] Speaker C: So you cannot hang out and watch Hocus Pocus with Michelangelo, though. [00:06:46] Speaker A: It's a bad idea. [00:06:47] Speaker C: It is impossible. It is. [00:06:48] Speaker A: That's a Halloween hickey right there. [00:06:49] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. [00:06:52] Speaker A: Speaking of which, do you have any. What? [00:06:55] Speaker B: Nothing. [00:06:57] Speaker A: What you said, what you say. [00:06:59] Speaker B: I said you're trying to put a hickey on the television because of consensual relationship with that film. [00:07:06] Speaker C: Do you have. [00:07:06] Speaker A: Do you have any Halloween hickeys? [00:07:08] Speaker B: Yeah, you know. Oh, well, you posed this question to me ahead of time and, you know, my take on it is again, I think it kind of ties into what I just said of, like, a lot of the. The relational elements that I've had in my past with women that were like, you know, in a dating structure, that type of thing. It was not based around, like, let's watch a scary movie and make out. And I feel like that's something that's a little more of a cornerstone of a pop cultural ideology that. I don't know if that's really true for that many people. Maybe it is. I don't know. But I Feel like that's not like a thing for a lot of people out there. [00:07:44] Speaker A: Mickey, was it a thing for you? Because you. This is a great point you brought up. And I was like, huh, that is a good point. [00:07:50] Speaker C: Yeah. No, I mean, it was for me, sure. I mean, I was. Man, in high school, it's like going on a date with a girl. If you could, like, go to a basement and watch a movie with her, there was definitely, like, the anticipation that I might end up making out. So, you know, okay, any movie. [00:08:07] Speaker B: Or a horror movie. [00:08:08] Speaker C: Horror movie, specifically. Because I think of like, that's. They get them a little scared. And so typically for something like that, you want to do something you've already seen. So, you know, that would be kind of my. My go to be something that. We kind of talked about this in the episode a little bit, but it would be something I've already seen it be something I don't mind to miss, you know? But yeah. And like, in the movie theater going to go see a horror film, you always like, going on your third or fourth watch with the girlfriend because you're like, I. If she's like, gets scared and grabs me, I'm. I'm gonna see if I can get a little smooch. [00:08:41] Speaker B: That's interesting because, like, I. I can remember, like, I think at that age, like your late, you know, teenage years, early 20s, like, having makeout sessions with girls and it didn't matter what the movie was like. I remember one time having a very, like, really, like, gross makeout session in too crowded of a theater with a girl. Well, 21 grams. [00:09:07] Speaker A: It's like, on par with a Seinfeld episode of, like, making out during Schindler's List. That's like, man, you are a psychopath. [00:09:16] Speaker B: That is awful drama about death. What are you talking about? About. It's only normal. [00:09:25] Speaker C: Oh, wow. Oh, wow. [00:09:26] Speaker A: The murder of sweet, innocent children. Not murder. The accidental death of, I guess, vehicle. Vehicle. Vehicle manslaughter really gets you going. [00:09:37] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, A crash. Yeah, of course. [00:09:40] Speaker C: I. I think that the idea for me was probably cultural, and I think that that probably for the female as well as cultural, the idea that, oh, I'm scared, so I'm going to cuddle with you. Kind of like instigate. [00:09:52] Speaker B: It makes sense. [00:09:52] Speaker C: That instigates the action so I don't have to instigate it. Right. So it's like, hopefully I don't have to, like, try to make a fool of myself and strike out if she gives me the. She puts her head on my shoulder. Oh, she's into me. But also I also remember having a make out session at multiple Titanic watches because it was the longest movie we could go to. And it was like I went and saw it so many times and I probably only actually saw the whole thing once. [00:10:17] Speaker B: So I guess all that to be said, my game was so good, I didn't need a horror film. [00:10:20] Speaker C: Yeah, if you can get a girl to kiss you during 21 grams, that is epic. [00:10:26] Speaker A: That's impressive, dude. That's impressive. My. My movies, to your point, Chris, my movies were actually like, I didn't get into horror until later. So the, those teenage years, it was usually like I was supposed to have my first kiss with the Star wars re release when my, my girl, my girlfriend, quote, like girl I was dating at the time had planned to kiss me when Han Solo kisses Princess Leia at the same time. But then she got in trouble and she couldn't go. So I was just like solo from that one. But. But they were usually like solo. [00:11:04] Speaker C: Yeah, he was hand solo that night, I was saying. [00:11:08] Speaker A: So I got, I got, I got asked to leave. So before we, before we get into our, our playlists, we're all having some seasonal beverages in the basement of the video store. Chris, do you have a spooky cocktail prepared for this evening? [00:11:33] Speaker B: I do. So this is, of course, I mean, it's the time of the year for the harvest, and the harvest has been bountiful this year. So thus I present to you the apple amulet, a perfect embrace of apple to charm away the demons this All Hallows Eve. We've got one tablespoon of homemade apple butter stirred into two ounces of apple pecan whiskey that I cured last year. Pecan whiskey that cured with apple cores and, and chunks of apple and clove and cardamom pods and cinnamon sticks mixed with an ounce of apple cider poured over one large ice cube and topped with one ounce of club soda. [00:12:09] Speaker A: This scumbag has the most amazing, like garden slash tiny farm where he lives, where they just. I mean, it's just the bounty. I was, I was just visit, I did a. I was visiting Chris. He's into making like sourdough crackers right now. And they're like, they taste like you. You ever have those like Parmesan crisps or like cheese crackers where they're made out of cheese? This is what this tastes like. It tastes like the umami on these. The crackers are ridiculous. And it's a sour. It's sourdough. [00:12:42] Speaker B: Sourdough. [00:12:43] Speaker D: It's true. [00:12:44] Speaker A: It's wild. And all the apples and, like, you have the. The caramels, which is like the essence of Halloween candy, can be found in Chris and Rails. What do you. What do you call those, the caramels that you make? Caramels, they're made with this homemade cider, like, from the apples. They make cider, and then they. What, you cook it down and. Yeah, it's. It's. [00:13:06] Speaker B: You cook it down into, like, a jelly, and then you use that jelly to make, like, a caramel with it, and you let them cure, and they're incredible, your apple caramels. [00:13:14] Speaker A: He always. He'll. He'll. [00:13:16] Speaker C: He'll. [00:13:16] Speaker A: Chris does this thing where he says something, like, really amazing, but he's just like, whatever, man. [00:13:21] Speaker C: Yeah, whatever. [00:13:22] Speaker A: But he's not doing it. Like. Like. Like, Mickey and I are used to people doing that, and, like. But they're, like, fishing for stuff. But Chris is like, well, yeah. [00:13:31] Speaker C: Oh, well, no, no, I. I think. I think the difference is that some people who do that are pretentious, and they're like, if I make it seem like I is no big deal, then. But Chris, actually, it is no big deal for him. He's like, yeah. It's like, I go out in my hands, I pick the things, I do the thing. It's not. Not a big deal. [00:13:46] Speaker B: Well, I don't really care for compliments all that much either, honestly. [00:13:50] Speaker C: Oh, you'd rather be. [00:13:51] Speaker A: He'd rather be insult. [00:13:52] Speaker C: You're gonna get something nice. [00:13:54] Speaker A: Yeah. I was just saying to this piece of. I was saying to his wonderful wife, I was like, you. You guys are just, like, such a wonderful couple. It's like, Chris would talk to me for years about, like, what he wanted to be doing with his life, and, like, you know, he's not doing all of them. Obviously, you still have a lot more life to live, but, like, the large portion of the things Chris talked about wanting to do, he's doing now. He's growing all these things. He's making all these wonderful things. It's. It's like. It really is, like, an amazing experience. Going to his house, he's got this little Halloween village Halloween decorations. You got. You got your new dog. It was great. It was a great trip visiting you, Mickey. [00:14:37] Speaker C: Yeah, well, I. It's hard to follow that. [00:14:39] Speaker A: Mickey doesn't grow anything. I don't. [00:14:42] Speaker C: I grew a beard. That's what I grew up. [00:14:44] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:14:44] Speaker B: And it looks great. [00:14:46] Speaker A: It is a great beard. So what do you got? [00:14:48] Speaker C: Okay. [00:14:49] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:14:49] Speaker C: So this is Luxardo. Maraschino original and a vanilla cinnamon bourbon with just a little bit of chili crisp put into it to make it spicy. I call it because of the sugary Luxardo liqueur. I call it sugar and spice and everything. Nice. Yeah, because it's spicy, it's sugary, it's sweet, and it just feels. No ice. You want to go neat? It feels warm. It feels comforting. It's. It's. That's my cocktail for the night. [00:15:18] Speaker B: Lovely. [00:15:20] Speaker C: So what. And what did you put together with your bare hands? [00:15:23] Speaker A: With my bare hands, I went to. Are you Mickey? Are you familiar with Bitchin Kitten Brewery? [00:15:31] Speaker C: Bitchin Kitten? No. [00:15:32] Speaker A: Yeah, they're a Pittsburgh brewery. I can't believe you don't know them. This is why I picked this out. [00:15:37] Speaker C: This is their. This is their female owned brewery. Yeah, the female owned brewery down in. It wasn't Aspenwall. I do know who they are. [00:15:46] Speaker A: They make a. A pumpkin imperial ale called Cat O Lantern. So that's what I'm having. It's strong. It's the night. [00:15:58] Speaker B: I was gonna say. [00:15:59] Speaker A: I don't know. I mean, it's stronger than the Pump King. [00:16:02] Speaker C: This is gonna get up. [00:16:04] Speaker B: Stronger. [00:16:05] Speaker A: Stronger. Stronger than the pumpkin. 8.7. [00:16:09] Speaker B: Yeah, I was gonna say pumpkin's like nine, I thought. Okay. [00:16:11] Speaker A: No, no. Well, I just had it the other day. I'm pretty sure it said 8.7. [00:16:15] Speaker B: No, no. [00:16:16] Speaker A: I used to be a big fan of the pumpkin. I'm not so much anymore. It doesn't taste as good as it used to. It tastes like kind of chemically. But the cattle lantern from Bitchin Kitten Brewery is. Is. Is quite delicious. So I'm gonna be sipping on it slowly and then chug at the end. [00:16:34] Speaker D: So. [00:16:35] Speaker A: Okay, now, Chris, here are the rules. Every song that we go through ends up officially on the video store playlist. This is a big deal. This is a big times, okay? This isn't some. We're talking about movie, okay? This is the music playlist at the video store. Everyone hears it that comes in. It's a big deal. Now you're gonna be asked a few things, right? So you make a pick and then Mickey and I, right, like, we're all gonna pick. Like how many pumpkin slash Jack o' Lanterns or does this song get. Yeah, you can go one out of five. [00:17:16] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:17:17] Speaker B: Is a pumpkin as good as a jackalier? [00:17:19] Speaker A: Yes. [00:17:19] Speaker C: Yes. [00:17:20] Speaker A: I would say Jack o' Lantern is better technically, but it's all subjective. So Mickey, in the past, as he was talking about sexy Jack O lanterns, it gets off the Rails like a pumpkin. Some sort of gore. It could be turnips for you if you want to go real. Real, like classic, right? And go turnips. [00:17:38] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:17:38] Speaker A: All right. [00:17:38] Speaker C: But five gourds. [00:17:41] Speaker A: Five gourds. Five rutabagas. Five. Keep going. [00:17:49] Speaker B: How you feel about parsnips? [00:17:53] Speaker A: What candy? What candy goes with the song, right? That's on the person's end. The person who picked the song, they got to know what candy goes with it. And then if someone wants to chime in, and it's like, I think this is a good candy to go with the song if they're familiar with it. And then here's the big one. This is the one you didn't know about Chris. [00:18:07] Speaker B: Okay? [00:18:08] Speaker A: And we all chime in on this. What movie goes with this song? Now, obviously, you know, if it's from a soundtrack or something, there's the obvious, you know, thing there. But you hear this song and it's like, what movie does it in what movie? And it's. This is all. Listen, I talked to Chris about. Chris wanted us to send the songs previously so that we could listen to them in their entirety and really enjoy the experience as a singular experience and get an emotion out of that. I said no. Now we listen to it. We make snap judgments. [00:18:37] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:18:38] Speaker A: All instinctual. It's all. It's all this movie, because. So listener. And it becomes the definitive word you. [00:18:44] Speaker C: Have on this song. [00:18:45] Speaker A: Yes, it's the definitive word. So, like, listen, listener. If. If someone's like, oh, I think this movie really goes with this song. And you're like, oh, I know this song. And that does not go with it. It's. This is all this is. We're listening to these songs for the first time during the episode to everyone's Picks. So I think we should start out with Chris. [00:19:08] Speaker B: Screams and moans Bats and bones. [00:19:14] Speaker D: The. [00:19:14] Speaker B: Ghost on the stair the vampires fight. [00:19:18] Speaker A: Better beware There's a full moon tonight. [00:19:37] Speaker B: All right, so this is Fantomas. Fantomas is kind of like an avant garde metal all star band. They don't really perform anymore. But it's Mike Patton, who you may feel might know him from, like, Faith no more, Mr. Bungle, Tomahawk, Buzz Melvin from the Melvins on guitar. Dave Lombardo is the drummer. He most infamously was a drummer for Slayer for a long time. Trevor Dunn, who's a really interesting bassist, does a lot of jazz. So they have an album in the early 2000s that came out called Director's Cut, and all their albums kind of are thematic this one was all covers. This. So anyway, I chose Spider Baby. So this, of course is the COVID from the theme song from the 1967 film. If you ever hear the original one from it, it's really like, kind of sounds like a little bit like there's a horn section to it. It almost sounds like it would be like the theme song from like a detective procedural. And Lon Chaney does the vocals and it almost sings like spoken word. He doesn't really sing. So they kind of did their own mark on that. And anyway, this is the first song, my picks, because this is like, kind of like you put together a good playlist. This is like your jump off point, right? We're gonna dive into that Halloween theme hardcore, you know, we're hitting all the themes hard. It's a little. It's up tempo. It's gonna get you going, it's gonna get you started. And that's why I selected this. I had this CD when it first came out. I listened to this album probably every year about this time of year because like three quarters of the album is like old horror films like Rosemary's Baby and the Omen and stuff like that. It's a great one for the season. I highly. I love this album. Love the song For a candy for this man. I'm gonna go with a Twix because I like. I don't really eat Twix every year though. I feel like I always get a couple around the Halloween season. So it's something at this time of year. It's got multiple layers to it. You know, a little caramel sweetness, a cookie crunch. This. This song is taking something that's like a little old and making it kind of a newer style, newer version with some very interesting choices in it. That's why I'm gonna go with it. [00:21:55] Speaker A: Mickey, are you familiar with the song at all? [00:22:00] Speaker C: Yeah, no, I've never heard this song before, but I do. But I'm familiar with the movie and I am familiar with like Spider Baby's influence on horror, just horror culture. Like, you know, from, you know, White Zombie to. I mean, I guess White Zombie kind of inspired me to check out the. The movie the first time. And it's a weird movie, man. [00:22:26] Speaker B: It is, yeah. [00:22:28] Speaker C: But, yeah, I love it. [00:22:31] Speaker A: Yeah. Wild. What movie? Obviously it's from a movie, but is there another movie that comes to mind that might go with it? Chris? [00:22:40] Speaker B: Oh, you know, so for me, because of the fact that like, you know, the vocals are like, the lyrics are this really kind of like. I think over the top kind of Halloween, you know, thing to it. Like, you know, was it Frankenstein, the Mummy? They're sure to end up in someone's tummy. Like a weird, like, rhyme that really on its own doesn't make sense, but it's cool the way it's said. So I would go with something like, something kind of basic and fun. I'm gonna go with like, the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. Because really, like, you know, kind of like. And. And it actually has, like. So the bassist, Trevor Dunn, he. He's a cool dude. He's done a lot of, like, interesting, like, rock stuff. He's also been, like, the main basis for John Zorn. So a lot of really interesting jazz elements to it. And like, if you especially. I think if you listen to the original and then listen to this, it's like. That's really interesting that they took this, like, really, like, brassy horn, like, sounds like a dragnet, like, theme song kind of thing from the 60s, and turn it into something a little more like, modern and kind of like, with an interesting little kind of beat to it, I think. I think they. They did a really great job with it. So that's why I would go with. It's a Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown plus two. I love it. [00:23:57] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, I would love to just like Charlie. Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown on. On a mute and then blasting this album that go really well and then maybe do, like, get, like, do some K. [00:24:17] Speaker B: So you gotta get it. You gotta get a K hole. [00:24:22] Speaker A: Any drug that's meant for a horse. [00:24:25] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:24:25] Speaker A: Charlie Brown and this, this. This album. Now, Mickey. [00:24:30] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:24:32] Speaker A: Does a movie come to mind for you? [00:24:34] Speaker C: Yeah, well, I mean, besides Spider Baby, obviously a candy. I could see some Pop Rocks, you know, something kind of, you know, pop it in my mouth as it's going. But I could also. I feel like this would work well in a movie that hasn't been made that I'm going to be pitching here in the next couple of years. That is a remake, an A24 remake of the Monster Squad. [00:24:59] Speaker A: All right. [00:25:00] Speaker B: All right. [00:25:01] Speaker A: Opening song and children. [00:25:04] Speaker B: Yep. [00:25:05] Speaker A: It's all guys, shirtless fighting. Monsters. [00:25:09] Speaker C: Monsters. Yeah. Yeah. So that's. [00:25:11] Speaker B: That's. [00:25:12] Speaker C: That's where I see a great film. Yeah. [00:25:14] Speaker A: Opening. It's gonna be a metaphor. I got it. I got where you're going. [00:25:20] Speaker C: What about you? [00:25:20] Speaker A: You. [00:25:21] Speaker C: You got some thoughts? [00:25:21] Speaker A: Yeah. Hubba Bubba, Bubblegum. Okay. For sure. I don't know why it's. Again, this is all instinctual. This is what just popped up my head. All the candies that could have. Hubble came up and then for some reason, obviously because of the name, but Cobwebs. [00:25:40] Speaker B: Okay. [00:25:40] Speaker A: Right. Is that the name of it? The one that just came out with Mark. Mark Starr? Hold on. [00:25:46] Speaker B: I don't think I know it. [00:25:48] Speaker A: No, we talked. I'm not getting the name right. [00:25:51] Speaker B: Okay. [00:25:52] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. COBB Webb from 2023. It's got it. Stars Lizzie Kaplan, Anthony Starr. I thought I'd talk to you about it. Chris Mickey. Have you seen it? Awesome movie from 2023. [00:26:12] Speaker C: What is it? Say it again. [00:26:14] Speaker A: Cobweb. [00:26:15] Speaker C: No, I don't know. No. [00:26:17] Speaker A: Directed by Samuel Bowden. It's worth checking out. Very Halloweeny. There's a monster in the house. Something's going on. What's. And you know, Anthony Starr gives his. You know, he just has. He's so good at the sort of like something very uncomfortable underneath what's happening. You know what I mean? Yeah. This is worth this. This was. This was. I remember when I saw. Like, I'm always weary of the new stuff. And I had a great time watching this Halloween of 2023. It was a great time. I think this was. This. Was this the same year who. Hubie Halloween came out? I'm gonna find out right now. Oh, it's 2020. You're right. You're right. 2020. But yeah, cobweb is what I'd go with this. Now. Now I'm gonna go first here. How many jack o Lanterns am I gonna give this? Man, this is tough, but I'm gonna have to go five. Five. [00:27:23] Speaker C: Oh, Five jackos. [00:27:25] Speaker A: Five jack lanterns. [00:27:26] Speaker C: All right, I'm going five cattle lanterns. [00:27:30] Speaker A: Five cattle lanterns. [00:27:31] Speaker B: With the butthole. [00:27:32] Speaker A: The cattle lantern. Where it's like the. The bottom of the. Is the butthole. That's good. [00:27:37] Speaker B: That's good. [00:27:38] Speaker A: Yeah. Pumpkin gourd. Jack o Lanterns. Cattle lanterns are giving it. [00:27:46] Speaker B: I would go with five pumpkins. And each one has been carved into a classic, like a Frankenstein, a mummy, a Dracula. And it's a very classic feel. [00:27:56] Speaker C: Yeah. Wolfman and Creature black. [00:27:59] Speaker B: Yep. [00:27:59] Speaker A: That's five. [00:28:00] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:28:01] Speaker B: That's five. That's the five. [00:28:02] Speaker A: Thank you for completing it. That's the five. [00:28:05] Speaker C: That's the five. [00:28:07] Speaker A: That'S the five. Five, Mickey. Yep. Your first entry into the new, into combining with the old and the new. Yeah. [00:28:22] Speaker C: Lana Del Rey and John Baptiste's candy necklace. [00:28:26] Speaker A: Go for it. [00:28:43] Speaker D: Wi fi. Cinnamon on my teeth. And I sitting in the stoplight. Northern town. I feel lucky. I drive somewhere to range. I don't know where. White noise coming out of my brain turns off for nothing Rockefeller, my umbrella God, I love you, baby Stop Story is my favorite song. You've been acting pretty restless. Dancing like the young and restless. [00:29:41] Speaker C: Okay, so this song, Candy Necklace, it's haunting. It's got fall vibes. It's like a noir mystery full of sadness, full of pain and. And anguish. It's like one of those songs. [00:30:01] Speaker A: It is very haunting and sad. [00:30:03] Speaker B: Haunting. [00:30:04] Speaker C: It is haunting. And just to give you context of. Of how I discovered this song. So this song's not very old. It's like maybe two years, three years old. And, you know, I was listening to a lot of music, headphones on, walking around my base in Kosovo, and I was deployed for the last year. And a fog would raise at night, and in the mornings, there was always a fog, like a heavy fog that was about like 3 to 4ft off the ground that you'd walk through. And when this song would come on and I'd walk through it, I felt ghosty. I felt like, like a spirit walking through, like, you know, the afterlife. And then another shout out to the song music video if you ever see it. The amazing musician, artist John Baptiste is. [00:30:47] Speaker A: Doing a piano riff. [00:30:49] Speaker C: He's doing the piano riff and he comes in in the end with his voice saying, and it's haunting. And the music video is haunting. I was gonna do the version with the music video for you guys, but I didn't because there's a lot of that. They. They do a lot of cutting in and out of background of behind the scenes stuff they're shooting while they're shooting this haunting black and white film. But it's just. It just for me is one of those that if you're having a Halloween party outside in fall and it's chilly and you're on the fire, I think this could be a showstopper in the playlist where it comes on. People are like, whoa, what is this? Because it. It takes a completely ghostly vibe that sometimes, you know, when we think about horror films, there is a. There you go. Those old black and whites, you can put on like an old, like black and white, like Nosferatu or a girl walks home alone at night and just have a collection of shots from those films with this song playing in the background. And. And the candy you do is a candy necklace. [00:31:52] Speaker A: You know. [00:31:53] Speaker B: Now where did you pull that? [00:31:55] Speaker C: I mean, I'm. I'm reaching big here. I'm reaching. [00:32:00] Speaker A: Did you make these candies from your garden from scratch? [00:32:05] Speaker B: Did you weave that necklace? [00:32:07] Speaker C: I weaved that necklace from My beard hair. [00:32:12] Speaker D: The. [00:32:13] Speaker C: But yeah, no, I would. I would go back and just say that. That the movies that. That go with this, for me, are black and white. Like, no, like, sound. Let this be the sound for the film that you. You're watching, you know, so Nosferatu. I'll just say. [00:32:31] Speaker A: Chris, are you familiar with the song at all? [00:32:34] Speaker B: Not familiar with this song. Familiar with Lana Del Rey, and. And completely agree with everything you said, Mickey. And please know that this comment is not meant to take away from it. But doesn't every Lana Del Rey song, though, sound haunting? I feel like that's totally at her corner, you know what I mean? Why. [00:32:50] Speaker C: But. But yeah, it. No, I agree 100%, but this has John Baptiste. This has his. Like, most of hers have, like, a little more pop. Like, that's a little more. Yeah, this. This has that, like, New Orleans piano playing. Like, you. John Baptiste has this thing. He says you can tell a piano player by the every hit of a key, because you can. They imbue themselves into what they're playing. And you can tell something a little different in this Lana Del Rey song because of that John Baptiste rhythm in the piano. The. The. You know, when he. When he strikes a chord and it feels a little stronger, and it's just from the flick of his wrist that went stronger on a note, you know, it's like, as much as Lana Del Rey is in that, I think John Batiste is in that as well. So this makes it as a standout Lana Del Rey for me. [00:33:37] Speaker B: No, agree. This is. It's really nice. It's really haunting, you know, for me, like, my, like, thought right off the bat, like, too is like, not even, like. And I know that our corner here that we're talking about is Halloween, but just even, like, you know, there's those days in, like, October, November, it gets that, like, that fall overcast, cloudiness at the off and on, rain in the cold, like, you know what I mean? Like, this is a perfect song that matches that vibe, you know, and it's there for, like, a couple months, you know, Perfect song for. It Does a movie. [00:34:09] Speaker A: Does a. Yeah. I was about to ask you. [00:34:10] Speaker B: A movie for a movie, I'm gonna say, you know, And Michelangelo, you might disagree with this, because as I have a fond memory of you being the one person in the theater who laughed at it, even though everyone else wasn't laughing, I'm gonna say, let the right one in. [00:34:26] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. Funny moments in it. Come on. [00:34:30] Speaker C: Come on. [00:34:31] Speaker A: The original. This is the original. Yeah. Not the Remake the original. We went and saw that in the movie theater. And I do remember laughing pretty heartily. And no one else was laughing, but. [00:34:43] Speaker B: I would say that. And then, you know, for a candy man, I'm trying to think of like, I feel like you want something that's like a little. Like a nice. Like a hard candy that's sour. You know what I mean? Like, I can't think of one definitive answer to that, but that would be the. The. The. I think the candy that would fit this. [00:35:05] Speaker C: A lemon drop, baby. [00:35:07] Speaker B: I feel like I want something a little more berry sour. [00:35:10] Speaker C: Okay. Okay. [00:35:10] Speaker B: Raspberry or something like that. [00:35:12] Speaker A: Gotcha. Interesting. [00:35:13] Speaker B: Yeah. You go like, you're like your weirdo candy store that has a whole bunch of bins of old ass candy that's probably got Dust incorporated and you find something you've never seen before and it's sour and has like a raspberry flavor to it. It's that candy. [00:35:26] Speaker C: And it probably didn't start out sour. It's just been there so long that. [00:35:29] Speaker B: It is soured sour. [00:35:32] Speaker A: This something. Something about Chris, something that's a little indoor into Chris. Chris is a very even keeled person, right. At times he's. We've had conversations about emotions and things like that, but he's pretty even across the board. And. But what's very telling about Chris, right? They say, what is it? Still. Still waters run deep is all the. A lot. A lot of the music he really likes really is. Is like really emotional, complex stuff. So I do like the idea of like Chris listening to this on like a gray autumn day, like sort of crying on the inside and picking his berries in his backyard and making a jelly and then making the most sour candy ever. And like one single teardrop goes into it. [00:36:25] Speaker C: Yeah. Well, I. I welcome you and the listeners. If you come to the playlist and you land on this song, listen to the lyrical content as well. That there's a lot of that Lana Del Rey, like is she rhyming just to rhyme stuff. But there's also some like really good stuff about hearing white noise in her head on this particular day. It feels like she is in the afterlife being ushered in through John Batiste's stroke of the keys. [00:36:49] Speaker B: Nice. Michelangelo. What about your film and candy Movie and candy? [00:36:54] Speaker A: I. This is a new song for me. I've never heard this song, man. And what popped right into my head was 2017's A Ghost Story. Have you guys seen that? [00:37:05] Speaker C: Yes. [00:37:06] Speaker A: Yes. [00:37:06] Speaker B: I don't think so. [00:37:07] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:37:08] Speaker C: 100. It's got that same mood. [00:37:10] Speaker A: It's what's her face. [00:37:13] Speaker C: It's a very isolating. Isolating. Yep. [00:37:16] Speaker A: Very isolated run. Amari is married to Casey Affleck and he dies. And it's his ghost. And it's a story about, like, moving on and letting go. And like, it's. [00:37:28] Speaker B: It's. It's. [00:37:29] Speaker C: It's a really. [00:37:29] Speaker A: It's a really good. The. The melancholy of the song just immediately made me think of that and I would. Candy. I don't know why this came. Maybe because it's kind of sad, but Candy corn. [00:37:49] Speaker C: Oh, okay. That is a sad candy if you like it. [00:37:55] Speaker A: Like, I like the way it looks visually, but if I'm eating candy corn, like, something's wrong, man. I'm just sad. I'm eating candy. I'm just eating sugar and corn syrup. Right? Is that. That's basically what candy corn is, right? It's food coloring. Sugar and corn. Yeah. And wax. [00:38:12] Speaker B: Yeah, probably. Yeah. [00:38:15] Speaker A: What a great depressing pick you piece. [00:38:18] Speaker C: Thank you. [00:38:20] Speaker A: Okay, so you're up. Let's go. Let's go to mine. I'm just gonna let you listen to it for a sec. [00:38:28] Speaker C: I'm. [00:38:28] Speaker D: I'm starting that is talking to you. [00:39:19] Speaker A: Martin is a boy with problems. Are you guys familiar with this one? Well done. [00:39:27] Speaker C: No, no, man. Of course. [00:39:30] Speaker A: Okay, so this, this is. This is Martin from Soft Cell falling apart from 1983. Obviously you guys are familiar with the song, so, like, I'm not gonna let you listen to it for. And it's like 10 minutes long. This is, you know, a song inspired by George Romero's 1977 film Martin, which we've talked about on the podcast. There's an episode on it. Something just. Just. I'm just teenage vampire, outsider, dangerous of obsessions. It's just like the begin. The banging at the beginning of the. Of the song, and it's just like spooky and scary and the kill, kill, kill, and. And it's just. [00:40:17] Speaker B: It. [00:40:17] Speaker A: It reminds me of the film that I love so much. I love Pittsburgh. I love Romero. I love Tom Savini. I love this movie. [00:40:24] Speaker C: Love Martin. [00:40:25] Speaker A: I love Soft Cell. [00:40:27] Speaker C: He loves the character Martin. [00:40:29] Speaker A: Synth pop is great. I love the. The character of Martin. No, no, no character flaws whatsoever on Martin. John Apple's performance is. Is. Is really. I mean, I mean, that's the thing. We joke about it. If you're. If you're familiar with Martin, he's. He's. He. [00:40:49] Speaker C: It's a. [00:40:49] Speaker A: It's. He's a complicated protagonist because he's. He's doing terrible things. But John Apple's like, sort of like, sort of sweet performance of this very flawed, confused kid just speaks to me on some level. Despite the fact that the movie opens with just like an unforgivable act, you know, check out the episode. But how familiar are you guys familiar with the song? [00:41:21] Speaker C: I'm sure I've heard, I've heard a lot of soft sell. It doesn't mean immediately jump out as one ber hearing, but I, I had to feel like I had to have heard it if it's a popular song of theirs. But Soft Cell belongs on this list for sure. [00:41:35] Speaker A: Chris? [00:41:36] Speaker B: No, not familiar with the song. Honestly, I don't really know much soft sell, you know. [00:41:41] Speaker A: Really? [00:41:42] Speaker B: I don't really know. Yeah, obviously beyond that, though, it was funny enough to, despite, like, being someone who I think really does have a soft spot in my heart for 80s synth pop, they never really quite attracted me. But that being said, though, I mean, seems cool, you know, I dig it. [00:42:07] Speaker A: I, I, I would recommend check out the, the album as a whole. It's pretty great. [00:42:14] Speaker B: So have you been, like, you've been a fan for this, a fan of this, then, for a long time? [00:42:22] Speaker A: No, this is, I mean, a long time is like, I don't know, the last five years or so, maybe. Yeah, it just, I love it because it obviously reminds me of the, the. [00:42:36] Speaker C: But you're, you're a huge fan of Martin. [00:42:38] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, I'm a huge fan of Martin, Yes. Well, I love Martin. [00:42:43] Speaker B: Are you, is your film, then, Martin? Are you gonna. Have you got something else? [00:42:48] Speaker A: Well, the sort of synth waviness of it, for some reason, like videodrome from 83 just came into mind. That's just, you know, hip. And then my candy is wax lips, obviously. [00:43:05] Speaker B: That's, yeah. [00:43:06] Speaker A: Vampire. Vampire. Wax list. Oh. Oh, my gosh. Wait a second. Hold on. Pause, Pause on Martin for a second. I don't think we rated Mickey's pick. [00:43:19] Speaker C: Oh, I think it was obvious, right? [00:43:22] Speaker A: It was. For me, it was definitely five jack lanterns, seven pumpkins. [00:43:26] Speaker B: I'm going to give it five, like, French impressionistic sad pumpkins. [00:43:35] Speaker A: Okay. [00:43:35] Speaker B: Then carved like tears. And they're kind of like, they're like, they got like, kind of hollowed, long eye looks to them. You know what I mean? Like, that's kind of what I think. [00:43:44] Speaker C: Yeah, I'm gonna give him, I'm gonna give him seven moldy pumpkins. [00:43:48] Speaker A: I think he does this, he goes over the five, which is great. I love it. Moving on back to Martin Candies Movies and pumpkins. What do you got? You got guys got. [00:44:01] Speaker D: What do you got? [00:44:03] Speaker C: You know me, I, I'm. I'm going to go. When you. Whenever I hear the synth playing like that and I feel that, you know, that kind of like vibe kind of feels like that, you know, Brit pop, 80s synth rock, you know, thing. I, I'm going to tend to lean towards a Nightmare on Elm street, but not the original. I'm going to go with something a little more poppy and fun. So maybe I'm gonna go Dream warriors. Even though I know Dawkin has the amazing song from Dream warriors and I love Dawkin on there, but maybe it, you know, softens it out a little bit with something kind of synthy and fun. I wouldn't say the song is fun, by the way. Fun's not right, but the, the beats per minute. The BPM has more of like a, like you can bop your shoulders to it, you know, so. And Dream warriors is a movie you can bop your shoulders to all day. [00:44:51] Speaker B: Is this like a, like, like a fake scene of them like having like a little like dance party? The asylum. [00:44:57] Speaker C: Yes, yes, probably. [00:44:58] Speaker B: And the song's play. [00:45:02] Speaker C: You got me you. [00:45:03] Speaker A: I like that. That's a great visual. That's a great vis. And while they're dancing and, and, and, and to the song. What candies are they eating in the insane asylum? [00:45:11] Speaker C: Oh, oh. I think something like this you got. It's, it's. It can't be too, too bright of a candy because it's still kind of got. Have some darkness to it. I think we're doing some. I can feel, I can feel gummies in there. So like it's like a deep ruby gummy of some sort. [00:45:30] Speaker A: Like maybe worms. [00:45:32] Speaker C: Maybe worms like but a deep like ruby colored gummy worm. Or, or, or even, maybe even like, like, like bloody hands gummies or some kind of bloody gummy. I don't think they have. [00:45:46] Speaker B: I was gonna say, are they like. [00:45:47] Speaker A: Yeah, they do that a thing like. [00:45:49] Speaker B: Life size or like they like small. [00:45:50] Speaker C: Tiny, tiny little hands with blood on them. [00:45:53] Speaker B: Really? Yeah. [00:45:54] Speaker A: I have not seen those. That's cool. [00:45:56] Speaker B: Yeah, I want to have some. [00:45:58] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:46:00] Speaker A: Nice small batch made from Tom Savini. [00:46:07] Speaker C: In Pittsburgh. [00:46:08] Speaker B: The. [00:46:08] Speaker A: That did make me the gummies led me to the worms which led me to the, you know, the. What was the thing called where it's like the crushed up Oreos with the gummies inside of it and it's like. Like what, Mud cups or mud cups. [00:46:20] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:46:21] Speaker A: I thought it had like a graveyard Name of something. But. Yeah, but, yeah, whatever. [00:46:26] Speaker B: Mud. I've heard that name too. [00:46:29] Speaker C: Yeah, I've heard that. [00:46:30] Speaker A: Chris. Any movies and candy come to mind. [00:46:32] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:46:34] Speaker B: So it's funny enough, enough. Like, my first thought, primarily before the vocals kicked in, and I can't think of actually what this film's score sounds like, but it feels like it would match it really well, is society. [00:46:50] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. [00:46:52] Speaker B: Yeah. So I think that film. And, like, for me, I think he needs something that's got a little kick to it. So I'm gonna go red hots. [00:47:01] Speaker A: Yeah, for sure. I think you. You hit the nail on the head for sure. [00:47:05] Speaker B: And I'm gonna give it five pumpkins that are really embracing that 1980s gender lines have fallen. And so we are more than happy to wear makeup and. And embrace our femininity because, of course, pumpkins are males. [00:47:25] Speaker A: Of course, Everyone. Of course. [00:47:26] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:47:30] Speaker A: And when they're jack o lanterns, they become women. Yeah, yeah. Everyone knows that. I don't know. I just revealed probably something awful about myself psychologically. I would give this five pumpkins with sticks just shoved in the neck. [00:47:48] Speaker C: Oh, wow. [00:47:49] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:47:50] Speaker C: Wow. [00:47:50] Speaker A: And then maybe some, like, sausage inside the pumpkin as well. You know? [00:47:57] Speaker B: I like it. [00:47:58] Speaker A: And then you bury those pumpkins in front of your house. [00:48:04] Speaker D: Wow. Okay. [00:48:05] Speaker A: Yeah, that's what I would do. [00:48:07] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:48:07] Speaker A: If I was raiding my. Which I am. [00:48:14] Speaker C: Okay. [00:48:16] Speaker A: Did I mention the beer was nine something? [00:48:23] Speaker B: Meanwhile. [00:48:23] Speaker A: Chris. [00:48:24] Speaker C: Chris. [00:48:24] Speaker A: Okay. [00:48:25] Speaker B: Drinking whiskey drinks. [00:48:27] Speaker D: Yes. [00:48:28] Speaker A: I'm a lightweight. So we're going to. Chris, I would say just let us listen to this for as long as. As. Like, when you want to come in is when I would say you come in. So you give us. You give us the time. Obviously, don't Let us go. 10 minutes or something. [00:48:47] Speaker D: Sam. When I have prayed, when the Holy Ghost says. And I know st. When they did, the count is on. [00:49:23] Speaker B: The time is coming soon. [00:49:25] Speaker A: But I can get to hell much faster than you. [00:49:50] Speaker B: I definitely recommend you listen to the whole song because I. I love the ending and the little last refrain, but. So this is the bridge. City centers with witch's wrath. This was first song of theirs I've ever heard. Distinctly, actually, funny enough, when I was looking for some, like, music this, like, around Halloween this time of year, probably like four years ago. I want to say something like that. It's. They're awesome, you know, I love. If you ever look out there. It's funny because, like, I feel like this, like, style of music's got a lot of different names to it. So, you know, Dark folk, neo folk, pagan folk. I actually heard just when not too long ago. Yeehaw. Goth. [00:50:35] Speaker C: I love a folk pick. Yeah, I love a folk pick. [00:50:38] Speaker B: So. But there this is Witch's Wrath. It was originally released as a single in 2018. It's also on their album here's to the Devil in 2019. You will find that like, between versions, there's a difference to me. I like. This is the single version. I like this one a little bit better. A little bit the kind of how their late singer Libby Lux really kind of hits a couple of the notes with I think a little more. A little bit of a stronger take, I think, on this one than the other one. They're originally from Portland, Oregon. You know, of course they sound. They're buskers on the street at one point, but I mean, like, they come. They sound like they could be from the, you know, just the. The darkest part of like Appalachia or like, you know, L.A. but yeah, they're. I think they're great. [00:51:25] Speaker A: Awesome, man. [00:51:26] Speaker C: I love it. [00:51:26] Speaker A: And you, Chris, and you to go. [00:51:30] Speaker B: Back to kind of something I said too, like, you know, like I said Phantomus was like the kickoff to me. Like, this is like a good, like middle of a playlist song and that, like, you know, the energy is still being kept up, but it's a little bit of a challenge, you know, a little bit of a curveball than what maybe what you might expect, you know, with kind of more that. That Southern folk style. [00:51:46] Speaker A: So this is awesome. This is like this. I feel like with the. With the version we were listening to, because it's like a live performance. Like, I feel like I'm. I'm there, you know, I got a beer in my hand and I'm just like having a great time. Well, anybody listening to this man, just kill it. [00:52:09] Speaker C: Yeah, I mean, yeah, the washboard that still. [00:52:11] Speaker A: Does that bring you home? [00:52:12] Speaker C: Oh, it brings me home. [00:52:13] Speaker D: This. [00:52:14] Speaker A: This. [00:52:14] Speaker C: This man right here grew up in Arkansas, and I grew up on the Delta, so you had a lot of Delta blues, which is slightly different from that Appalachian sound that you're talking about. But, but. But not far from the Ozarks, which has a music festival where the Dobro was. I believe not. Maybe not the do bro was created, but they. They have. The most famous doro maker is in that small town in Arkansas, Ozark. [00:52:35] Speaker B: Really? [00:52:35] Speaker C: It's. Yeah, Ozark. I think it's Ozark. It's. No, it's Mountain View, Arkansas. But. Oh, they come down from the hills. The folks in the Ozarks and they come and they play at night at this one little picking venue in Mountain View. And you can see them just like, improvise stuff like this. And none of them, I think, have the power of this female vocalist, but. But very cool. Love the sound. This is a bop. I have so many pumpkins I want to throw at this right now. [00:53:08] Speaker A: So. Okay, we'll get to the pumpkins last, but, Mickey, does a movie or a candy come to mind? [00:53:14] Speaker C: I. I hate to even say this movie. I hate to even say this movie because I feel like it's not a very original or deep. [00:53:20] Speaker A: That's okay, man. It's what's coming. It's what the first thought, best thought. [00:53:23] Speaker B: But. [00:53:24] Speaker C: But I thought Tucker and Dale because it's where you make fun of a certain. No, you make fun of a certain type of person. You make fun of a certain type of genre, and then you were. You find out these are the coolest people on. These are the people you want to hang out with. They bring, you know, something special. So that was my initial thought. I was. [00:53:44] Speaker B: I was. [00:53:44] Speaker C: I was like, where do the Appalachian, you know, redneck sound give. Where did. Do you see that turn? Where. It's actually, these people are. Are as well. And I think that this is what they do. Not that Tucker and Dale are tours by any means, but it's a place where at the end of the day, your hero is the person that is sometimes the. The. [00:54:07] Speaker A: The fodder of jokes and a candy. [00:54:12] Speaker C: I mean, I mean, you know, I'm going with those peanut butter bars. [00:54:16] Speaker A: Oh, peanut butter bars. [00:54:18] Speaker C: Peanut butter bars all day long on this one. [00:54:20] Speaker D: Bars. [00:54:22] Speaker A: Chris, does a. Does a movie and a candy come up in mind for you? [00:54:26] Speaker B: Okay. So for a movie, I have a little bit of a. You know, it's a. It's not really a horror film, but it kind of falls into the thriller category. But I'm gonna go with the. The classic Night of the Hunter. [00:54:38] Speaker C: Oh, sure. [00:54:39] Speaker A: Yeah. That is a great pick. [00:54:44] Speaker B: Melting that. [00:54:45] Speaker A: God, that movie is so good. [00:54:47] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. And then for a treat, I'm gonna go with like, Like. Like a. Like a pecan turtle. Cuz for me, like peacon and caramel and chocolate kind of like that represents something to me. I think my mom's side of the family is very southeastern Missouri, and it was just something I grew up with. They would always have pecan trees and make that. So I think I tie in that into like a little bit of that cultural ideology. So. Yeah, probably not exactly thoroughly accurate, but I get It. [00:55:20] Speaker A: So, for me, three movies came into mind when I was listening. [00:55:23] Speaker C: Oh, okay. [00:55:24] Speaker A: In order of how they came up, right? Ginger Snaps from 2000, the Craft from 1996, and the Company of Wolves from 1984. Those movies just don't know the company. My head. Check it out. It's awesome. And purple Taffy. Purple. Purple Taffy came to mind. I think. I think, like, there's something witchy about purple, huh? [00:55:54] Speaker B: Purple grape. [00:55:55] Speaker D: Sure. [00:55:56] Speaker C: It's like a grape. [00:55:57] Speaker B: It's purple, dude. [00:55:59] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah. But any purple candy doesn't actually taste like a grape. [00:56:04] Speaker A: It's tasty. [00:56:04] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:56:05] Speaker A: Yeah. All taffy tastes the same. Except for banana taffy. [00:56:08] Speaker C: No, banana taffy tastes incredible. Mickey loves banana taffy. Oh, it's my favorite. Oh, it's my favorite. [00:56:15] Speaker A: But I go purple. Hey. Banana taffy. Colored purple. [00:56:21] Speaker C: I. Whoa. [00:56:22] Speaker B: I didn't see that film. [00:56:24] Speaker C: Do you think this song belongs in the Color Purple? This song is in the Color Purple. [00:56:29] Speaker A: Okay. [00:56:29] Speaker C: Got it. [00:56:29] Speaker A: Man, what a great pick. I'm. I. I gotta say, I'm gonna give this five of the pumpkins that are painted like purple witches, okay? [00:56:36] Speaker B: Oh, okay. [00:56:39] Speaker A: Mick. [00:56:40] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah. I mean. I mean, honestly, like, five pumpkins that I'm hurling at people. [00:56:46] Speaker B: Yeah. You know, there's five pumpkins. Five smash mailboxes. [00:56:52] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:56:54] Speaker A: Five school teachers running through the woods. Chris, how many pumpkins are you giving your own song? [00:57:02] Speaker B: Oh, I mean, I love all my songs, so, like, 17 pumpkins. [00:57:06] Speaker C: 17. [00:57:06] Speaker A: Oh, wow. Okay. [00:57:09] Speaker B: That's the amount of people that are in Bridge City centers. Not really, but there's a lot. [00:57:13] Speaker A: Okay, so moving on. Mickey's second pick. Let's see here. [00:57:44] Speaker C: You guys can stop whenever you want. I know you've heard the song. You do not have to continue. You don't want to. [00:57:51] Speaker B: It's like. [00:57:52] Speaker A: Chris, are you familiar with this? [00:57:54] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:57:56] Speaker A: Okay, I didn't know that. Like, I know we did an episode. I couldn't remember if you were on it or not. [00:58:01] Speaker B: It's funny you say that, though, because, like, I merely. I'm like. Like, I know. I mean, I've seen this film multiple times then. Right. Like, still, though, it's like. It's like seeing it for the first time all over again. Like, just forgetting how over the top and hilarious it is. [00:58:13] Speaker C: Yeah. So this is the least Halloweeny, spooky song of any pick that you're gonna hear tonight. But it's a tannis. Is it a tannis? A tanis. A thonas. [00:58:26] Speaker B: I think a Thomas. [00:58:27] Speaker C: I want to say Autonis illiches. Let's go Buzz. From the movie slumber party massacre 2. An episode that we've all done. Please go back and listen to it. We, the three of us, got into Slumber Party Massacre 2. It is. It is so not a horror song or a Halloween song. It is like. It is rockabilly. I mean, just some of the lyrics. I, I, I, I got a rather large amount in a Swiss bank account I got a penthouse that's a Ritz I bought it with my hits. I got a castle in Spain A little jet plane baby. That's buzz. It's just. It's ridiculous. Fun, goofy. Shout out to a horror film that if you hear the song, I hope it inspires you to be like, what movie has this, like, break in the movie to have a musical performance by the lead killer? [00:59:21] Speaker A: Very fun. [00:59:21] Speaker C: It's. It's very fun. I had to put it in on the playlist because it could not be this video storage playlist without. Without something from slumber party massacre 2. And how it never hit the playlist before now, I do not know. But that is my second pick. [00:59:37] Speaker A: Let's buzz. [00:59:39] Speaker C: From slumber party massacre 2. [00:59:42] Speaker A: Pervy pit. [00:59:44] Speaker C: Obviously, the movie that you have to watch with this is slumber party massacre 2. And the candy I'm going for are runts. [00:59:51] Speaker B: Runs. [00:59:52] Speaker A: Runts. Like perhaps a ghost that goes sneaking through the basement. [00:59:59] Speaker C: But. But, man, make sure when you go for your runs to pick out the banana runs first and eat those. They. They get the pallet ready for the rest of the runs. [01:00:06] Speaker B: Oh, okay. I couldn't think of what a runt was. And I looked it up. I remember those. [01:00:11] Speaker C: It's like, yeah. Little bananas, little apples. [01:00:13] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, I remember Runs. Runs. Runs and nerds are kind of like in the same. [01:00:17] Speaker C: Yeah, this movie feels like a little runt. Feels like a little runt of a movie. So. So this, this pick was all based on the movie. Guys, this is my. It's got to be on the playlist because it is a movie that I really enjoy and I want to inspire our listeners to go watch it. So let's buzz. [01:00:37] Speaker B: Well, and I will say too, that, like, from what I saw, I think the music video might have, like, the best hits of the film. So let's say you don't have an hour and a half to watch the film. You can watch that five minute. He got the. [01:00:52] Speaker C: Basically, I just. [01:00:53] Speaker A: I'm a huge fan of the first Slumber Party Massacre. That movie is a classic. I love that movie. This is fun. This is fun. But I Wouldn't. I wouldn't. I wouldn't. I wouldn't go into a debate with someone who's like, I don't like this movie, you know? [01:01:09] Speaker B: Yeah, but what about. [01:01:11] Speaker C: I would. I would. [01:01:13] Speaker A: Oh, the song. [01:01:14] Speaker B: Oh, it's great. Talk about the song. Okay, what about. [01:01:17] Speaker C: If you don't like. If you don't like this movie, you have no class. You have no. No sophistication. [01:01:25] Speaker A: Chris does a movie. Does a movie and candy come to mind? [01:01:28] Speaker B: Candy does. Not for me. [01:01:32] Speaker A: Like, we're gonna have to let you go, dude. [01:01:35] Speaker B: Oh, this is. [01:01:35] Speaker C: All right. Thanks for joining us. [01:01:36] Speaker A: All right. Thank you, Chris. Yep. [01:01:38] Speaker D: And. [01:01:41] Speaker A: But a movie. A movie that comes to mind. [01:01:44] Speaker B: Yeah. Like, I mean, obviously not slumber party massacre 2. Right. But like, I'm gonna say the Return of the Living Dead, I feel like that is. [01:01:52] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:01:54] Speaker B: Not exactly. You know, there's enough of a Venn diagram overlap, I think, between those two of like that I think you can especially too. Of course, in return, Living Dead, you got the cramps surfing Dead. So it's just got kind of a bit of a similar. A much more serious version of the, like, the song. [01:02:09] Speaker C: But yeah, and it's not just rockabilly. It's 1980s rockabilly, which is very different than like, your classic, like, 50s rockabilly. I mean, this is like. This is like 1980s campy rockabilly song. That's lyrics are just dumb and does not. [01:02:28] Speaker A: Hey, don't, don't, don't, don't. You know, someone wrote that. Someone put a lot of thought into this. You know, we don't have to say we don't. You don't have to call it dumb. You like it. You love it. [01:02:36] Speaker C: I love it. Done in all the right ways. [01:02:39] Speaker A: It's fun. It's. It's. It's a. It's approachable. The. [01:02:43] Speaker C: The lyrics are simple and beautiful and magical. [01:02:47] Speaker A: Simplicity. There's beauty and simplicity. For me, two movies easily came to mind. 1983's Christine. [01:02:56] Speaker D: Sure. [01:02:56] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:02:57] Speaker A: It's the grease. It's the greaser element of it all. And Rocky Horror picture show from 1975. [01:03:02] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. [01:03:04] Speaker A: And then. Oh, baby candy. We're gonna go a liquor made raz apple. The razz apple. Magic dip. Oh, magic. You know, you dip. You dip the sugar stick into the sugar powder. Yeah. [01:03:28] Speaker C: Fun dip. Yeah, yeah. [01:03:30] Speaker A: Maid baby. Oh, yeah. [01:03:36] Speaker B: Felony charge. Yeah. [01:03:39] Speaker C: You can't. You can't lick a maid. You know that, right? Just because she's your maid. [01:03:43] Speaker A: Arnold would beg to differ. Going on moving on real quick, real quick. [01:03:49] Speaker B: I gotta say though, I gotta give this five pumpkins. Five pumpkins painted to look like they're wearing leather chaps. Of course. [01:03:57] Speaker A: Me, I'm gonna give this five Danny Zuko pumpkins. [01:04:01] Speaker C: Oh, that's. Thank you. I appreciate that. [01:04:03] Speaker A: Yeah. And Mickey. [01:04:04] Speaker C: I mean pumpkins. [01:04:06] Speaker A: 15, obviously. Not. Not. Okay, that's interesting. Just 15. [01:04:11] Speaker B: Okay. [01:04:11] Speaker A: Interesting, interesting. So let's go to my second. [01:04:17] Speaker C: Your second pick. [01:04:28] Speaker A: Okay. We know it. We all know it. We can stop listening to it and go back. I mean. I mean. [01:04:37] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:04:37] Speaker A: You guys know this, right? [01:04:39] Speaker C: Of course. [01:04:40] Speaker B: I mean notice in like I've seen the film and remember the score. I watched listen to it. [01:04:46] Speaker C: I've seen it twice this week. [01:04:48] Speaker B: Oh, wow. [01:04:48] Speaker A: Really? Yeah. So this is for the listener who probably already knows this. This is from the music from the motion picture Sleepy Hollow from 1999. This is Main titles. This is when he's riding into Sleepy Hollow, obviously. Danny Elfman. And this was the brilliant Daniel, the brilliant Danny Elfman. Released on Hollywood Records November 16, 1999. There is a 2021 expanded edition that has a bunch of like songs that weren't used in the. In the official soundtrack and in the film. And then 2022, waxwork records released a. A vinyl of it that is. Has some artwork from Steve Reeves, Steven Reeves and it's like metallic red like wax. And like the artwork in it, it's just like. It's awesome. So if you're a Sleepy Hollow fan, that record is on vinyl is like a must have. And this just remind. This is just like the beginning of a spooky night filled with black magic, witchcraft, ghosts and things that go bump in the night. It has like a touch of hope in there, right? Every time there's like a hopeful like cue in the music, then something really dark and loud comes in and there's whimsy and romance and there's something really beautiful and something that is dangerous. And I cannot like for me there are like two main things that come to mind with Halloween. And one of them is Charlie Brown, right? That sort of like suburban kid, melancholy Halloween vibe. And then like upstate New York, Sleepy Hollow. Like the Legend of Sleepy Hollow, the Headless Horsemen, Ichabod Crane. Like I just. I love it in all of its so many different forms. This is a really fun one. It really. Man, talk about an adaptation of the story and doing something completely different with it. But the music of this, I mean like any. You just throw spaghetti at the wall with Danny Elfman and like anything pretty much is Going to be good for Halloween point. [01:07:02] Speaker C: Yep. [01:07:03] Speaker A: You guys, I mean. [01:07:10] Speaker C: I could. I could see something that came to mind was the, like, one of the most epic Halloween films that is not at all a Halloween film, which is Return to Oz. Just the imagery of Return to Oz with this kind of music background would be. Yeah, really incredible, dude. You know, for sure. Return to Arms. [01:07:28] Speaker B: What? [01:07:29] Speaker A: That's awesome. [01:07:30] Speaker C: Yeah. And then. And then kind of piggybacking on Chris a little bit. That cinnamony taste in your mouth, that warmth. I'd go with, like, not Red Hots, but instead the. The cousin of Red Hots, which is like the hot tamale, you know? Yeah, yeah. That. It's. It's got some gumminess to it. It's got some hard candy outer. You're, you know. You know, you suck it a little bit, then you chew on it a little bit, and you get like, a lot of, like, oral fixation. [01:07:59] Speaker A: It kind of like, it has that, like, there's like, this danger underneath the sort of like the. [01:08:09] Speaker C: The. [01:08:10] Speaker A: You know, the community, the suburbs, the. You know. Anyways. [01:08:16] Speaker B: Chris, hard for me to think of a film because, like, I think also too, like, intrinsically right for the score. And then Danny Elfman, so much of his scoring of films so intrinsically tied to Tim Burton. [01:08:28] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, for sure. [01:08:29] Speaker B: The thing that comes back versus other films of the elk. You know what I mean? [01:08:32] Speaker C: Right, right, right. [01:08:34] Speaker B: So I think I'm having a hard time thinking of something like that. But for me, I think for a treat, I think you got to go with a classic for what it is. And I think that's a. A caramel apple. [01:08:42] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, yeah. [01:08:44] Speaker A: Okay. We were talking about this on a previous episode only. [01:08:47] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:08:48] Speaker A: Do you actually eat caramel apples? And if you do, how do you eat them? [01:08:53] Speaker B: I do it in, like, one gulp at a time. Wow, that really got him. [01:09:08] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:09:15] Speaker A: That got me. [01:09:16] Speaker B: No, I don't. I. I don't, like, regularly partake in caramel apples. Normally, it would be more like an apple slice and you got, like, some melted caramel. You may, like, dip it. That's not like an actual, like, you said, a set caramel apple, but I. [01:09:30] Speaker A: Feel like caramel apples were invented by adults to give to kids with loose teeth. [01:09:36] Speaker B: Oh. [01:09:37] Speaker A: You know what I mean? They look great, but it's like, I can't. It's like, you gotta slice that sucker up. [01:09:42] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:09:44] Speaker B: Mickey, if you were to bob for caramel apples, how many do you think you could do? [01:09:48] Speaker C: Oh, man, 20. 20. [01:09:50] Speaker A: He'd stick his head in and they'd just be all stuck to him. [01:09:52] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:09:53] Speaker A: I mean, that beard and his wonderful, beautiful, curly hair. [01:09:56] Speaker C: Although, I don't know what. What does water do to the caramel outer. [01:10:01] Speaker B: I think the water is caramel, right? [01:10:03] Speaker A: Yeah, it's. It's. It's in a vat of capital. And you know what? This time, if we were to issue a challenge, okay, so for the listener, we did a challenge. Mickey said he could, like, get a peek at, bob a bunch of apples. And I was like, there's no way you could do it. And then he did it. I did it. He did it. But I will say this. You were like, can I wear goggles because of my contacts? And I was like, yeah, you can wear goggles. And I gotta say, I would never allow that. Now, part of bobbing for apples is not having sight. It's. You got to do it blind. So I think you cheated me a little bit. But nonetheless. Nonetheless, it was ridiculously because you exceeded the number. [01:10:45] Speaker C: That is. That is such an ableist statement. You're saying that. Hold on. Because if somebody has good eyesight and they want to keep their eyes open, and bob for apples, they can. And because I have bad eyesight, I'm only asking to have the same advantages of anybody else, and you're denying me that. And you're saying that I won because I asked to be the same as others. [01:11:06] Speaker A: I think a little bit. [01:11:08] Speaker C: I shattered glass ceilings, and you were saying that it's not enough. [01:11:15] Speaker A: Okay, we're getting. [01:11:16] Speaker C: So for the eye challenge, I was able to do a lot of apple bobbing. [01:11:22] Speaker B: One day, your plaque will go up next to Helen Keller. [01:11:30] Speaker A: So my candy that goes with this is a homemade popcorn ball with little bits of red liquor in there. Because it just. I know, I know. But, like, I. To me, red licorice is just, like a total movie theater thing. You know what I mean? So it's like. I'm going with, like, a traditional buttered popcorn ball with little bits of red. You know, you want to get. I want to make sure you have cavities. [01:11:55] Speaker B: Is that a thing you like? Did you grow up on that? [01:11:58] Speaker A: No, this is something I invented specifically for this song. [01:12:01] Speaker D: I was gonna say. [01:12:02] Speaker B: I never heard of that before. [01:12:04] Speaker A: Yeah, no, this is. This is. I mean, you know, they do the. You could. You could add cereals and stuff to your popcorn balls. We've talked. We talked about this in Halloween Hangout. [01:12:13] Speaker C: My mom made popcorn balls. [01:12:15] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. And you can incorporate, like, Count Chocula or Booberry into it. They're wonderful. And then, Mickey, the thing you were saying, right. That reminded me of something, a theme within. Within the film Sleepy Hollow is that there, you know, you have this idyllic community, but there's this. These secrets in this darkness underneath it. Right. And that just makes me think of, you know, obviously all of Stephen King's work. Right? [01:12:45] Speaker C: Sure. [01:12:46] Speaker A: And I just recently watched 1991. Sometimes they come back and. Not a great score on the movie. The movie's fine. It's a great fall vibes movie. It's a great background movie also. Ooh, Needful Things. I think it would also play pretty well on Needful Things. [01:13:04] Speaker C: Needful Things has a great score. But this is. Yeah, I mean, obviously it's Danny Elfman. This is Danny Elfman, but. [01:13:08] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:13:08] Speaker C: Yeah. No, this. This fits. Needful things 100. Yeah. [01:13:13] Speaker A: Man, I feel like Needful Things. I'd love to see a remake of that. Anyways. I don't want to get bogged down in that. How many pumpkins we given Sleepy Hollow main titles? [01:13:26] Speaker C: I mean, these are five well carved, beautiful. You can put them in. In the town of Sleepy Hollow now. Well made pumpkins. [01:13:36] Speaker D: These. [01:13:37] Speaker A: These are. [01:13:37] Speaker C: These are artisan Jack O lanterns.

And now, like, this is for, like, your mood setter for going out maybe, you know, you're trying to hook up. [01:15:52] Speaker C: Starring. [01:15:52] Speaker D: I met his hair like his J. He was a walker I sit your love on me I kissed him and said Sam. [01:16:44] Speaker A: So yeah, please. This is. [01:16:49] Speaker C: Still. I'm still watching. I'm still watching. [01:16:51] Speaker B: You need another minute. [01:16:53] Speaker C: Let me have this for a minute. Let me have this for a minute. [01:16:57] Speaker B: Didn't know that you could have that much nudity in YouTube. [01:17:00] Speaker A: I know. That's wild. [01:17:04] Speaker B: It is. No, and it's. [01:17:06] Speaker A: It's. [01:17:06] Speaker B: I'd say it's for who they are too. It's a religious. [01:17:13] Speaker A: So, yeah. Please tell us what this. What this song is. What it's from, your history with it. All that jazz. [01:17:18] Speaker B: This is all that jazz. This is twin temple with sex, magic, awesome satanic do op. Can you get any cooler than that? Yeah, I don't think so. [01:17:28] Speaker A: I don't think you can. This is like the cool version of Mickey's pick from slumber party massacre 2. [01:17:37] Speaker B: I disagree. [01:17:38] Speaker C: I disagree. But. [01:17:39] Speaker B: But yeah, this is Alexandra and Zachary James. They're a husband and wife. They, I mean, just have, like. It's such a cool thing of, like, merging such, like. So this is literally what their whole catalog's pretty much like. So it was hard for me to actually narrow down exactly which song I wanted to go with, but I kind of decided that this would be. I don't know. I think this one kind of stuck out to me. I highly recommend that. This is from their 2018 album, which is literally Twin Temple Bring you their sound Satanic doo wop, which is a really funny album title. [01:18:15] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:18:15] Speaker A: But I mean, nail on the head, though. [01:18:18] Speaker B: Yeah. They're not. They're not pulling any punches. I mean, they just embody that sexy, seductive, dark side. Yeah, I love them. They're fun. I kind of came across them probably about. It was during COVID It was probably like five years ago, and they just released a third album or fourth, and it's all. Them are great. Highly recommend them. Very unique, very interesting. Of course, as long as, you know, someone's open to listening to. To it for what it is. I know people. Some people would probably be weirded out by it, but that's not what it's about. [01:18:50] Speaker A: But not at the video store. [01:18:52] Speaker B: At the video store, it's perfect. Especially because we're gonna play the. The Music video on the TVs during, like the. The after school. [01:19:00] Speaker A: For sure. For sure. [01:19:01] Speaker B: Sure. [01:19:01] Speaker A: This is gonna play. This is gonna play non stop. [01:19:04] Speaker C: 4 7, 24 7. [01:19:08] Speaker B: But yeah, no, I love them. They're great. [01:19:10] Speaker A: Mickey, are you familiar with this at all? [01:19:12] Speaker C: I have not heard this. [01:19:13] Speaker A: No, me either. What'd you think? [01:19:16] Speaker C: The. The song 10 Pumpkins. The music video, 2,000 Pumpkins. [01:19:22] Speaker A: 2,000 Pumpkins. All right. And does a movie or candy come to mind immediately? [01:19:30] Speaker C: Love witch. [01:19:32] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. [01:19:34] Speaker C: I could also see De La Morte. De la More. Yep. Cemetery man. And then I. Also, for candy, I mean, I think we have to go with quite possibly the sexiest candy ever. [01:19:50] Speaker A: If you even. [01:19:50] Speaker C: I don't know if you can call this candy even, but a chocolate covered strawberry. [01:19:55] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Yeah. That's a really good pick. [01:19:57] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:19:58] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:20:01] Speaker A: And. And Chris has a really interesting memory and experience tied to chocolate covered strawberries. Oh, you worked at a particular chocolate here. [01:20:13] Speaker B: And a Godiva chocolate dipping. [01:20:15] Speaker A: She works with Chris. Chris. You want to tell it real quick? Chris worked out a good dive of chocolate. What happened there? [01:20:19] Speaker B: Oh, you're talking about. So one time I was working at a Godiva chocolate back when those were stores back in, you know, I was like 19 or whatever at the Overland Park Mall in Overland Park, Kansas. And you'd only be like. It was like, you know, it's a small shop. You'd be by yourself. So I'm in this place by myself and I'm working and I don't know if I ate something or not, but suddenly I feel like my stomach is. [01:20:44] Speaker C: Oh, no. [01:20:46] Speaker B: And I like, I have this, like, run to the bathroom. Diarrhea that was like, so bad that, like, I blew out my underwear. Like, throw in the trash. [01:20:56] Speaker A: The only guy working at the Godiva. [01:20:58] Speaker B: Store and the only guy, he's. So I get, like, cleaned up, like, afterwards and go out and there's like these like, angry middle aged women that want to get like, they're like chocolates. And I am like, I'm sure I smell like diarrhea. You know what I mean? Like, such an uncomfortable, terrible experience. [01:21:21] Speaker C: Oh, in a chocolate store of. [01:21:23] Speaker B: All right. [01:21:24] Speaker C: Oh, man. [01:21:26] Speaker A: Now way to. [01:21:27] Speaker C: Way to ruin that music video, Michelangelo. Diarrhea on the brain. [01:21:35] Speaker A: Disgusting. Chris does a. Does a movie and a candy come to mind? [01:21:40] Speaker B: Yeah, I had a couple thoughts. So movie wise, like, I'm thinking like Hellraiser. [01:21:48] Speaker C: Oh, sure. [01:21:49] Speaker B: Is that, like, right? [01:21:50] Speaker A: That's a horny movie. [01:21:52] Speaker B: And another one again. I think you'd make an argument doesn't fall into the horror category, but, uh, the ninth gate. [01:21:59] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [01:22:01] Speaker B: Satanic ritual, like in the whole Making love to the beast. And for a treat, I'm gonna go with a cake pop made with devil's food. [01:22:12] Speaker C: Great choice. Great choice. [01:22:16] Speaker B: And then also too, for what it is, man. [01:22:20] Speaker A: Mickey. [01:22:21] Speaker B: What? [01:22:22] Speaker C: Just. Just your. Your reaction to that. Such a weird reaction, you know, uh, cake pop. Pop. Yeah, cake pop. And you go, oh, yeah. [01:22:34] Speaker A: That's a horny dude. That's a horny. [01:22:38] Speaker C: So into it. [01:22:44] Speaker A: Three movies came to mind. [01:22:45] Speaker B: Okay. [01:22:46] Speaker A: Whoa. For me. [01:22:47] Speaker D: Whoa. [01:22:47] Speaker A: 1993'S My. My Boyfriend's back. [01:22:50] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:22:51] Speaker A: Very early Philip Seymour Hoffman performance. Yeah. He plays like. Like a. Like a jock douche guy who kills himself with an ax by accident trying to kill the zombie guy. Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, 1988. And then I don't know if you guys have seen 2019's extraordinary. [01:23:16] Speaker C: No. [01:23:17] Speaker A: Do you see that? It. It's. It's jars. It's. It's like an Irish horror comedy ghost story with Will Forte and Claudio. [01:23:29] Speaker C: Yes. [01:23:29] Speaker A: Great mov movie. [01:23:30] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:23:31] Speaker A: What a gem. And obviously, when I'm listening to the song, I'm gonna be eating fruit by the Fruit of Tropical Terror. [01:23:38] Speaker C: Fruit by the foot. [01:23:39] Speaker A: Fruit by the foot. Tropical terror. [01:23:41] Speaker B: Tropical terror. [01:23:49] Speaker A: Then you could do like. It's like a long, horny guy tongue, and you're eating it up. [01:23:54] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:23:55] Speaker A: Tropical Terror. [01:23:57] Speaker C: That's disgusting. [01:23:58] Speaker A: And I give this. I give this 100 pumpkins. Glory Hole pumpkins. I was gonna see just with a hole, but I was just getting to the point. I'm getting to the point. I mean, It's. [01:24:11] Speaker D: It's. [01:24:12] Speaker B: It's 69 pumpkins. [01:24:14] Speaker A: It's six. Oh. [01:24:18] Speaker C: Dude, come on. [01:24:21] Speaker A: Devil cake pop. Like, 69 pumpkins, bro. [01:24:29] Speaker C: Michelangelo, do you need. [01:24:31] Speaker A: Do you. [01:24:32] Speaker C: Do you need a minute or can we. [01:24:34] Speaker A: I need a lot of minutes. I need another beer. I need another minute. I need a hold. Give me. I need to watch Hocus Pocus for a minute. Okay, give me. Give me a minute. With Hocus Pocus. [01:24:43] Speaker B: You watch Sex Magic to warm up for Hocus Pocus. [01:24:51] Speaker A: Did we all give our ratings? [01:24:53] Speaker C: Yeah. As many pumpkins as I can, I. [01:24:57] Speaker A: Can produce and how many. [01:25:00] Speaker B: See a doctor about that. [01:25:05] Speaker A: Okay, so moving on, Mickey. Okay, your third and the final pick. [01:25:10] Speaker C: The. It's the last or the first one on the list? No, no, no. Like the last. [01:25:17] Speaker A: Okay, I gotta go to the thing. Chris, you tell me when you're set up. [01:25:22] Speaker C: Susie and the Banshee. [01:25:44] Speaker D: The night is still and the frost divides my face I wear my silence like a moss and murmur like a ghost Trick or treat, trick or treat the bitter and the sweet Trick or treat, trick or treat the. [01:26:18] Speaker C: Okay, so I let you kind of get that little drum roll they had there. So this is Susie and the Banshees. So what's cool about Susie and the Banshees is that this is like a. They probably feel very 80s when you hear them, but they're actually late 70s. And they were initially labeled kind of like punk rock, but they were early leaders in the post punk kind of revolution of that DIY British pop rock. So, like, soft sell is a great, like, you know, there would be no soft sell if, you know, Susie and the Banshees didn't get there first. But they have influenced so many bands, fans out of the British, like, new wave. They didn't have massive success, but they had a couple of like, you know, top 100 hits in the Brit and. And, you know, in Britain and also in their. Wikipedia, when I was reading about them, they were. They're considered one of the people that were the catalyst for the goth movement that would hit pretty heavy in the late 80s and, you know, 90s and. And so on. But I just feel like this is a Halloween song. It's called Halloween. The chorus line is trick or treat. Trick or treat. You know, the bitter and the sweet. I'm like, there's just. It belongs in every Halloween playlist. And how it's not been on our playlist seems a bit a miss for us. So how I was introduced to this song was. If you ever watch the animated film Monster House, I don't know if you know that. That animated. Familiar with. Yeah, this. [01:27:51] Speaker B: This was. [01:27:52] Speaker C: Well, if you wait till after the movie ends in the post credits or not post credits. In the credits, they play this song. Oh, really? [01:28:02] Speaker B: Really? [01:28:02] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah. So it's just kind of a. I mean, also Monster House is cool. [01:28:07] Speaker A: And this. [01:28:07] Speaker C: That's cool. They did that. Was not familiar with Susie and the Banshees until hearing that in Monster House. I would. I would say that this is not even their best song. Go through their catalog. Their catalog is incredible. They're super cool. It's like. It's almost like if you love the. The kind of pop, post punk, Brit stuff, then you can go back, you can see the influences of them on like, Depeche Mode, on even Duran Duran, like all those bands coming out in the 80s that were like crushing. Direct line from somebody like Susie and the Banshee. So that's why I picked. [01:28:44] Speaker A: It was awesome. [01:28:47] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. [01:28:48] Speaker A: As far as. [01:28:49] Speaker B: It's a good song, Chris. [01:28:51] Speaker A: Are you familiar with it? [01:28:52] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, I like Susan. I had a phase back. Like, they're cool. [01:28:56] Speaker A: Oh, you had a phase? What's this phase? [01:28:59] Speaker B: Please tell me. I had a phase, like, in my, like, I think it was probably, it was like late teen years in which I was really into like, a lot of the, like, 70s into 80s British to that point, that wave. Depeche Mode, like, that was like. I got really into Depeche Mode whenever I was like. Yeah, yeah. So I had a Susie in the Banshees phase. Yeah. But I, I, It's a fun song. I like that one a lot. [01:29:24] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:29:25] Speaker B: And as far. [01:29:25] Speaker C: Oh, go ahead. [01:29:26] Speaker A: No, go ahead. [01:29:27] Speaker C: I was gonna say as far as the movie and the, in the, and the, the treat from your trick or treat. Halloween three season, the witch kids walking the streets ready for Halloween, about to be taken over by the tv. This song comes on and the kids are, you know, you get, you know, Middle America, streets filled with kids in masks about to meet their doom. That's what this kind of song elicits to me. And as far as my treat for this, it's 100% banana laffy taffy, baby. [01:29:58] Speaker B: Because you wanted to mention it or because of something else? [01:30:01] Speaker C: No, I just think Banana Laffy Taffy and this song go well together because it's one of my favorite treats. It's, it's fun. It tastes delicious. It's probably, you know, I don't even know. It doesn't really taste like banana. Can't necessarily. It has like a banana adjacent flavor. So I would also say this isn't really punk, but it has kind of a punk adjacent flavor. So I don't know, it's just cool. It's, it's, it just fits for me. [01:30:29] Speaker B: Chris, that's good, man. For a treat, I'm going to give you something kind of obscure. So Iceland really loves licorice. And like, it's really common if you're in Iceland that like, all their, like, chocolate treats have, like, licorice in the middle. So, like, it's an interesting, like, combination to me at least from an American palette of like, you know, it's like a piece of, like, chocolate and like, you, you eat into it and it's just like, chewy licorice and that, like, you know, strong anise flavor. So, like, to me, like, this song kind of gives me that, that, like, that duality that like, layering. Yeah. So I'm going To go with that. I'm so Sambo, Distinctly by Prister. Whenever I was in Iceland. I love them. [01:31:17] Speaker C: Okay. [01:31:18] Speaker B: And for a film, you know, I kind of like, my, My first thought is something like, Like a trick or treat. Like something like one of those, like, montage films that's in different segments that has a bit of, like, a nihilistic approach to it too, I think. Something like that. [01:31:40] Speaker C: Okay. Yeah, yeah. [01:31:44] Speaker B: And I would give it. I'm gonna go somewhere in the ballpark of 31 to 36 pumpkins. [01:31:53] Speaker C: Oh, I like that. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. [01:31:55] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [01:31:58] Speaker A: Two movies came to mind for me. Jennifer's body from 2009. [01:32:04] Speaker C: Okay. [01:32:05] Speaker A: And then fun size from 2012. You guys seen Fun Size? Fun Size is like a. Basically a Nickelodeon movie. Family friendly Halloween movie. It's not horror at all. Yeah, it's a comedy. Highly recommend it. But know that you're watching, like, a Nickelodeon Halloween movie starring, like, a lot of people who would go on to do some, like, really cool stuff. And you got Johnny Knoxville. [01:32:35] Speaker C: Oh, okay. [01:32:36] Speaker A: In a small part, playing a. It's a fun movie. I like it. And if I'm gonna like. Oh, man, you know what? There's something about Wild berry Skittles and Starbursts that come to mind. And then Chris was talking about the licorice stuff, and I'm like, you take some Sambuca, you infuse it with some Skittles and some Starbursts, and you do some shots, and you just rock out to this song. [01:33:05] Speaker C: I love it, man. [01:33:06] Speaker A: It's such a great list this year. How many pumpkins? Oh, dude, I'm gonna give it four. Five black pumpkins. [01:33:17] Speaker D: All right. [01:33:18] Speaker A: The rotting, festering. [01:33:21] Speaker B: Oh, so they're, they're, they're black because they're rotting. [01:33:26] Speaker A: Huh? No, you painted them black, but they're also rotting. [01:33:29] Speaker B: Ah, okay. [01:33:31] Speaker A: Which, but speaking of rotting pumpkins, you know, I go on walks every day in my neighborhood, and, like, some. There are people. It blows my mind. There are people who, like, carve their. A jack o' lantern, like, two weeks before Halloween. [01:33:54] Speaker C: If you know your proper. If you, if you know your proper jack o' lantern care, you can make it last. [01:33:59] Speaker A: I'm, I'm, I, I, I don't know. I think, Chris, you're, you're more in tune with me where it's like, I, I do a jack o' lantern lantern either Halloween Eve or Halloween normally the day before. [01:34:14] Speaker B: I'm like, the day before or two days before. [01:34:17] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:34:18] Speaker B: Like, one year That I had to do it on Halloween. I hated it, but. [01:34:22] Speaker A: Oh, it's, like, too much stuff going on. Yeah. [01:34:24] Speaker B: It's like I want to. I want to enjoy it. I don't want to be, like, doing a task, you know? [01:34:27] Speaker A: Like, that's why, like, Halloween Eve, I think, is a great night to, like. You put on something like hocus pocus. You cut your jack o lanterns, and you, like. You do all the prep. Whatever's left for. For the day. [01:34:37] Speaker D: You. [01:34:37] Speaker C: You rub the inside with Vaseline and you do it a week. [01:34:40] Speaker A: You lube your pumpkin. [01:34:42] Speaker C: Yeah. It would be perfect for you. And the last pick that Chris had. [01:34:46] Speaker B: Yeah. That pumpkin. You gotta. That pumpkin. [01:34:49] Speaker A: Well, bleep that. Bleep that. This is a. This is a family show. [01:34:53] Speaker B: It is. [01:34:54] Speaker A: Yeah. We're on Hallmark. [01:35:00] Speaker C: I think we just got sued. I think we just got sued. [01:35:02] Speaker A: You just got sued. So let's go to. [01:35:06] Speaker C: You didn't ask me how many pumpkins. [01:35:08] Speaker A: Oh, I'm sorry, dude. How many pumpkins? [01:35:10] Speaker C: Okay. This song is called Halloween. It says trick or treat in the course. This thing is five million pumpkins. [01:35:16] Speaker B: Whoa. [01:35:19] Speaker A: I missed that. I cut. You cut out on me. What? What are you. [01:35:24] Speaker C: Five million pumpkins. [01:35:26] Speaker A: Five million pumpkins. [01:35:27] Speaker C: Yeah. You've already moved on to your song. [01:35:32] Speaker A: Saw, I thought you were talking. I was like, wow, he's so generous. I'm sorry. [01:35:36] Speaker B: I'm. [01:35:37] Speaker A: I'm ready to play. I'm ready to play my song. [01:35:39] Speaker C: I know you are. [01:35:39] Speaker B: You're. [01:35:39] Speaker C: You're chopping at the bit. Let's do it. Put it on. [01:36:07] Speaker D: In dreams you came. [01:36:11] Speaker C: That voice which. [01:36:13] Speaker D: Calls me and speaks my name Stand for night inside my mind. [01:36:55] Speaker A: I wanted. It's this. Okay, so that's a cover of Phantom of the Opera by Jonathan Young. And then that's Melinda Kathleen Reese singing in there. And this is from 2023, I think, but the. It's like a metal cover of Phantom of the Opera now. Why. So last night, I'm watching Chad Powers. [01:37:21] Speaker C: Okay. Okay. [01:37:23] Speaker A: Now, mind you, there's a couple of episodes that kind of qualify as sort of Halloweeny Chad Power episodes, Right? And one of. There's an episode that involves Chad and his accomplice having to go to a spirit Halloween to get glue. Right? And the beginning and the end of the episode plays with this song, and it's an instrumental, and I'm like, what is that? It's such a spooky sounding song, and I needed a third song. And I'm like, that's so good. What is that? And then I'm like, oh, it's Phantom of the Opera. Like, I'm not a big musical guy, you know. Obviously, obviously Andrew Lloyd Webber. It's a classic. It's like one. I think it's the longest running Broadway musical of all time. Based off the 1910 novel by Gaston Neurot. And of course, you got the 1925 silent film starring Lon Chaney, iconic image of Lon Chaney in the makeup, based off of like the real life Paris Opera House being like haunted and the chandelier incident from 1896 and the ghost and all that. But I was like, are there any metal cover versions of this? And I listened to this version by Jonathan Young and it was awesome. And at one point he sounds like Clancy Brown. And that's. I don't think that like just listening to it just now, it wasn't there. I'll send it to you guys and I'll. I'll link. Link it so that. That's the version we play on the episode. But it's just like the drums in this, the guitar riffs. I just, I just had a really great time with it and like family op. I mean, like that. I'm like, that's. That is. That is a good time. Rocking out Halloween mix for me, you guys. Are you familiar with fan of the opera, the music from it, blah, blah. [01:39:24] Speaker B: I've never heard of it before. [01:39:26] Speaker A: Really? [01:39:26] Speaker C: Some of the. [01:39:27] Speaker A: What. [01:39:27] Speaker B: Of course I have. [01:39:28] Speaker C: Everyone. What is. [01:39:29] Speaker A: What is the. [01:39:30] Speaker C: He's the Phantom of. You said the opera. [01:39:32] Speaker B: I think it's some sort of like, like weird version of the Phantom of the Paradise. [01:39:38] Speaker C: Ah, okay. Yeah, I know. [01:39:39] Speaker A: Phantom of the Paradise. Yeah. Yes. I think this was based off of that actually. [01:39:43] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:39:46] Speaker A: But I. I up. [01:39:49] Speaker C: Wow. [01:39:51] Speaker A: I mean, of the metal. The metal. The metal cover. [01:39:55] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. [01:39:59] Speaker A: I'm so sorry I didn't link the right one. [01:40:01] Speaker B: It's okay. Things happen. [01:40:02] Speaker A: But he's got. He does like this Clancy Brown thing with his voice and it's awesome. And like, this isn't. There's no history. This is like. It literally. Found this out yesterday. Just discovered. [01:40:12] Speaker B: Yeah, I guess I. Real quick. I think this is kind of what this guy does. I think right? Like, he's like. [01:40:18] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. He's got a YouTube channel. Check out his YouTube channel. He's. He covers. Does a lot of covers to songs. Metal versions of them. Yeah, he's really. He's a very talented musician. That's all I know about him. But yeah, the song involves, you know, an underground lair and powers and embracing Darkness and music and. I mean, that's Halloween right there. [01:40:45] Speaker B: Would you. So you would say the Phantom of the paradise is. Is a Halloween film or Halloween production? [01:40:52] Speaker A: I would say both. Phantom the paradise and Phantom of the Opera are. I would. I would. I would classify both as. As. As Halloween movies. Yeah. [01:41:03] Speaker C: Okay. [01:41:04] Speaker A: For sure. I. I would. I would. I would go for the 1925 silent film starring Lawn Cheney, but, you know, that's just me. But the music. The music's classic, and, like, the metal covers are. Are awesome. I. I enjoy a good metal cover. [01:41:21] Speaker B: Okay. [01:41:22] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. [01:41:23] Speaker B: Dig it. [01:41:24] Speaker C: 100. [01:41:25] Speaker B: What about. What's your. What's your. What's your. So is that your film then? Is your film? [01:41:33] Speaker A: No, dude. I'm gonna go. I got three to come to mind. Deathgasm from 2015. [01:41:42] Speaker D: Okay. [01:41:43] Speaker A: Rock and Roll Night. Go yourself. Rock and Roll Nightmare from 1987. And Tatsu the. The. From 1989. [01:41:54] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. [01:41:55] Speaker A: Just because it's a metal cover. I just went with, like, metal. Metal. Metal songs. And then my. My candy is a. A. The big jawbreaker that you can't. [01:42:04] Speaker C: Oh, okay. [01:42:05] Speaker A: Can't eat that. Can't do it. Mickey would figure. Mickey. I'm sure we could start. Mickey. Let's do a bet. Mm. Can you chew through a jawbreaker? The big jawbreaker. The jawbreaker that kills. That kills the. The teenager in jawbreaker. [01:42:24] Speaker C: Can I. Or have I. Whoa. I can get right through that thing. These chompers. [01:42:35] Speaker A: For those who don't know Mickey. Mickey's. Mickey's teeth have been reinforced with military technology. [01:42:41] Speaker C: You're right. If you. If you've seen Sleepy Hollow, no spoilers, but I got them kinds of chompers. Yeah. Huh? [01:42:50] Speaker A: Miranda Richardson. Yeah. Yep. What. What Movies and candies come to mind immediately. [01:43:01] Speaker C: We're at the opera, so we're doing 100 grand because that is a fancy person's candy right there. [01:43:07] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. [01:43:07] Speaker C: Huh. And then movies. So lyrically, I. I found it really fun to. To think about the. The similarities between the lyrics of this particular song from Phantom of the Opera and any Nightmare on Elm Street. At night, he comes to me. You know, it's just like you're fighting that. That idea of at night, this person comes. So I thought. I thought any Freddy Krueger, Any nightmare. Elm street works. I particularly love A New Nightmare. I think that's a very underrated film. It's very meta. It's very cool. So I'll just throw a new nightmare on there. And then the other one I thought about, because whenever I think about Metal and horror. I'm always taken back to a young Mickey Miller watching Tales from the Crypts. Demon Knight. [01:43:53] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. [01:43:55] Speaker C: It's where I was interested. [01:43:56] Speaker A: Man, you're crushing it. [01:43:57] Speaker C: That's. That's where I was introduced to Cemetery Gates by Pantera. Introduction to Pantera. And then the next three years being somebody who listened to a lot of Pantera. So. So I'm gonna go. Demon night in any of the Nightmare on the streets, but particularly a new nightmare. If you haven't seen it, you got. [01:44:12] Speaker B: To see it real quick. I just heard this fact recently, and I don't know if you've heard this or not, but supposedly when they were shooting Demon Knight, they built the sets inside this, like, old airport hangar that was filled with a whole bunch of birds that would, like, make a whole bunch of noise. So the director would actually fire a gun to scare the birds to be quiet. [01:44:33] Speaker A: I did not know that. That's hilarious. [01:44:35] Speaker C: That's awesome. [01:44:36] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:44:36] Speaker A: Oh, that's awesome. [01:44:38] Speaker C: I can't wait for the time we do Demon Knight on this show. I think Demon Knight's one that we gotta revisit. [01:44:43] Speaker A: Oh, God. Billy Zane. [01:44:45] Speaker B: Hell, yeah. [01:44:47] Speaker C: Movie. [01:44:47] Speaker A: Oh, my God. He's fantastic in everything. [01:44:49] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:44:50] Speaker A: Everything. Everything. He's the hero of Titanic, in my opinion. [01:44:55] Speaker C: Hot take. [01:44:57] Speaker A: Hey, he lived, dude. I like the winners. I like the people. Yeah, Chris. [01:45:06] Speaker B: So I'm gonna say for movie, a couple. A couple things come to mind. One is, I don't know the year on this, but Stage fright. [01:45:14] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, That. I love that movie. [01:45:18] Speaker B: Yeah, That's a fun one. And then also Dario Argento's film opera. [01:45:25] Speaker A: Okay. Yeah, yeah. [01:45:28] Speaker B: Because also. [01:45:29] Speaker A: Fantastic. More candy. What can you. [01:45:32] Speaker B: I feel like you gotta go with jamming out. I think you gotta go something like, old school. Like, I'm gonna say like a. Like a. Like a. A Necco Wafer, something. You're like this to be candy. [01:45:55] Speaker A: A Werther's Caramel. Delicious. [01:45:59] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:45:59] Speaker A: Right. When Chris and I were first hanging out, he would always have Werther's in his car. [01:46:07] Speaker C: Sure. [01:46:07] Speaker A: I don't know why, but I pointed it out. They're delicious. They are delicious. [01:46:13] Speaker B: Do you have a problem with having something delicious on hand? [01:46:15] Speaker A: No, not at all. [01:46:18] Speaker B: And then just because. Not anything on the song or anything like that, but just because I haven't really. I feel like with Michelangelo enough. I'm gonna go with Zero Pumpkins. [01:46:28] Speaker A: Okay. [01:46:29] Speaker C: Zero pumpkins. Zero pumpkins. Yeah. [01:46:34] Speaker B: It's got nothing to do with the small. [01:46:36] Speaker C: I'm gonna go negative 500 pumpkins. [01:46:40] Speaker A: Yeah. Okay. I mean, I think it's a little unfair to Jonathan Young and Phantom of the Opera, but I. I do see this as a reflection of me and not the artist I'm presenting to you. So. [01:46:53] Speaker B: Yeah, that's what I told you. [01:46:54] Speaker A: In accordance with the video store, I have to go with 5, 000 pumpkins slingshot into my face. Like, really not even ripe. Just like the unripened. Like, I'm not. I'm not making it through it. I'm not making through it. [01:47:12] Speaker C: Like, I'm probably out. [01:47:14] Speaker A: I'm probably out on the second pumpkin. And then it's just a disgusting display of grotesque. Just the inhumanity. And that's how I feel when you said zero pumpkins. [01:47:27] Speaker B: No, in all seriousness. Yeah, several pumpkins. [01:47:31] Speaker A: Several pumpkins. We're not gonna specify the number, but. Okay, we went back up. We went back. Okay, so I guilted you and did I guilt Mickey into any more pumpkins? [01:47:41] Speaker C: Phantom of the Opera and metal belong on a Halloween playlist. So you're getting five really dressed up, prepared for the night of the opera pumpkins. I'm gonna say Jack O lanterns because they're classier than pumpkins. [01:47:58] Speaker A: Okay. And I'm gonna. I'm gonna slightly change mine to 5 Phantasm ball pumpkins into my head and. And squirt out my brains. [01:48:10] Speaker B: You're a real tall man, aren't you? [01:48:12] Speaker A: Yeah, no, I'm more of like, you know, the guy at the beginning of the first one who gets and then stabbed by the. By the. By the tall man. [01:48:20] Speaker C: That is. [01:48:21] Speaker A: That's me. The guy with the mustache who's like, I don't have a mustache. I can't really grow one. But the guy who's dead. [01:48:29] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:48:31] Speaker B: I used to have a friend who always wanted me to grow a skullet and be like, what's his name? From that. Yeah. [01:48:40] Speaker A: Do we have any honorable mentions? I know Mickey has. We're not going to listen to him. We're just gonna just quickly throw them out there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Mick. [01:48:51] Speaker C: So I'll start with something that piggybacks off of your Phantom of the Opera. I had a Phantom of the Opera in my honorable mentions as well, but this is a cover by me first in the. Gimme. Gimme's Phantom of the Opera. It's a little more punk, but also a cover of Phantom of the Opera. It's pretty cool. Then I have. [01:49:07] Speaker A: Interesting. Why didn't you bring that up? [01:49:09] Speaker B: I've never listened to it. [01:49:11] Speaker C: I was waiting for my honorable mentions. I didn't want to take away from your fan of the opera moment with my family. Opera moment. And then the cure of Forest. It's again, just very moody. Very fall. M83. Graveyard girl. I don't know if you know. [01:49:31] Speaker A: Yep. [01:49:31] Speaker C: The French band. [01:49:32] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:49:33] Speaker C: Very shoe gay since Poppy. Yeah. [01:49:35] Speaker B: Take Me away. [01:49:37] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:49:38] Speaker B: And then. [01:49:38] Speaker A: And then a more. [01:49:39] Speaker C: A more current band. I think they just released their album in 2022. 2023. But Wet Leg, the song CPR, it's like indie rock, punk revival, Brit rock, Wet leg. You guys will dig Wet Leg. [01:49:54] Speaker B: Okay. [01:49:54] Speaker C: They're. [01:49:55] Speaker A: They're available on the. On the playlist. You'll add them to the playlist so we can all enjoy them. [01:49:59] Speaker C: Yeah, but you will enjoy some Wet Leg, so, please. It's like a female vocalist. They're really, like, doing this, like, punk revival stuff. It's really cool. So CPR is the one I recommend for that. Those are my honorable mentions, Chris. [01:50:17] Speaker B: So I kind of, to the point of. Kind of said a little earlier the whole Fantomas director's cut album. Pretty much like, I shouldn't say the whole thing about 3/4 of it is like classic horror theme songs. Recommend that also. Pretty much the entire catalog of Twin Temple is similar to Sex Magic. Highly recommend that. I'm also going to shout out Helen, you, Amigo, the Devil. Really nice singer, songwriter tale. I'm gonna go. Night of the Living Dead by the Misfits. [01:50:49] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. [01:50:51] Speaker B: Nature Trail to Hell by Weird Al yankovic. Him satirizing 80s slasher films. [01:50:56] Speaker A: Great. Yeah. [01:51:00] Speaker B: What else should I go with here? Oh, I gotta say something I really thought about also including Claudio Simonetti and Goblins, the theme song to Tenenbray. [01:51:10] Speaker C: Okay. [01:51:11] Speaker B: Love that film. A lot of fun. That's mine. [01:51:15] Speaker C: Michelangelo. [01:51:16] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:51:16] Speaker A: I got one honorable mention, and that's Candy by Mandy Moore. It was very close to being on my list. I love it. It's. I was Ali had a burn CD in the car and it was in. And like, because it was in the thing and I. I start driving and I don't switch out the CDs when I'm driving. And I always forget to, like, switch them out when I start driving. I listen to that song a bunch and it's. [01:51:44] Speaker B: It's. [01:51:45] Speaker A: It's a fun poppy song. And it's candy and it's like, you know, it's kind of fun. Manor's great. [01:51:52] Speaker C: I love Manny Moore. Oh, she's great. [01:51:55] Speaker A: I mean, across the board. Her reputation is like, she is a very good person. [01:52:01] Speaker C: I. I will Say, there was a period in my life when Campbell and I would watch Tangled, like, three times a week. He loved it so much, and we became big Mandy Moore fans in this house. [01:52:13] Speaker B: Oh, she delivers. [01:52:16] Speaker D: She. [01:52:16] Speaker B: The lead night or something? [01:52:17] Speaker C: Yeah, she's. [01:52:18] Speaker A: She. [01:52:18] Speaker C: She is Rapunzel. Yeah, but. But it's like a. The voice of Rapunzel. Yeah, it's an animated film by. I think it was, like, one of the first, like, Pixar Disney combinations. I could be wrong. Don't quote me on that. But. But yeah, it's actually really good. It's, like, very empowering for, you know, women trying to break out of whatever systems they're locked into. It's. [01:52:40] Speaker A: It's good. [01:52:40] Speaker C: It's good. It's. It's an underrated, really cool animated film. [01:52:45] Speaker A: Speaking of women trying to break out, Molly, we miss you.
