Damaris and I both share a love for horror movies and, as a unique tradition, we gather to watch a horror film every Christmas Eve with our cousin Fonzo, who also shares a love for the genre. He will be joining us for a fun discussion of the best and worst horror films where fear and fascination intersect.

You know, you know, we try, you know. This family is full of talent to people, wherever you go.
01:51 - Damaris (Host)
We talk about talent, but I'll help.
01:55 - Nachi (Host)
You are. You are Every one of us.
01:58 - Damaris (Host)
We contribute, I hear you, we do our talent. That is true.
02:03 - Nachi (Host)
Yes, we have a very dope family. Yes, for sure. You want to tell us a little bit about yourself, you know? Let our listeners know who you are and what you're about.
02:14 - Damaris (Host)
Man, listen, I'm just a dad husband that just loves his family, loves scary movies and occasionally has a beer here and there.
02:24 - Nachi (Host)
Praise God. Oh, okay, from the south side of the Bronx and shut out. We got our drinks here.
02:31 - Damaris (Host)
Yes, yes, yes.
02:32 - Nachi (Host)
We won't show any labels because, you know, until you start paying us Cheers. Oh damn Cheers, Hold on, hold on hold on, no, just hold the label to yourself. You know no biggie. I'm really excited about this topic because this, like Nachi said, it's become. First of all, it's our favorite genre Well, my genre, my favorite genre, but I think it's like everyone here is favorite genre as well but it does hold a special place because it's something that we started probably like what? 10 years ago.
03:03
So as a family tradition to watch horror movies on Christmas Eve. So for most Latinos, we know we celebrate Christmas Christmas Eve, we don't celebrate it on Christmas day. Christmas day is when you eat the leftovers, whatever, but you go ham 24th, december 24th. And so what we started to introduce? And probably because our father in particular loved scary movies too he was, you know, I think he just loved, he loved the absurdity of the scary movies, so he enjoyed watching them and we would just gather, we would come together Christmas Eve, cook all our favorite dishes and then end it with watching a series of scary movies as a family, like I know.
03:49
For some people that might sound a little bit nutty, but it's just what it is right. And so I kind of want to jump into what. How do we define what a scary movie is Like? What is the best criteria for what we determine a best horror movie to be? How would you guys define that For me? I'll start with saying that it needs to maintain a steady pace of tension. You know what I mean by that. There needs to be like I'm on my toes, but not throughout every single minute, but enough, so that I'm like I'm not, that it grabs your attention yeah, yeah, yeah, that is gonna catch me off guard because I'm like on pins and needles.
04:37
No, that's that's exactly how I feel, too like it has to. For me, there has to be an element of mystery. So well, not all of the herfums that we watch have a really good plot line, plot story. I still I'm the ones that are best for me, that I I feel fallen in that category of best films are those who have some sense of like there's a story behind it. You know, because for all of you who don't know me, I love, I love me some true crime and what I love about it is just the mystery, like who did it, how did that happen? And that's how I feel when it comes to these horror films. Like I'm all, that's how they get me in, that's how I they, they reel me in.
05:29 - Damaris (Host)
And watching, not only watching it, but finishing the movie okay, this might be a little sick is how the first person dies that's, that's the hook okay, I think it's telling of like how it's gonna go yeah, the first, the first killing has to be good, I mean. If it's not, then let's keep it moving yeah that's a lot, that's.
05:58 - Nachi (Host)
That's pretty good, I would say, and I would also add the right number of jump scares yeah you don't want to move either, has like too many jump scares. You know what I mean.
06:08 - Damaris (Host)
It has to be the right amount that's balanced throughout there's a thing with me that needs to be like some sort of balance right agreed yeah, no.
06:17 - Nachi (Host)
So, father, when you talk to talk about how, how the character dies like what's been the best one you've seen, that you like oh shit, this is gonna be a good movie to be honest, it was damn.
06:38 - Damaris (Host)
The Saw movies were pretty good oh yeah, they, yeah, they. They're opening kill scene, yeah you know I was crazy the Halloween movie when, um, he was a kid okay, yeah, he was.
06:57
There was a thing with the kid was a skinning cats or stuff like that. And then he he was picking on, I think, on Mike and he met him during the, the alley or I guess a little bush area whatever and started hitting him with the with the branch that was. That was crazy because he was just beating that kid with that branch. I was like whoa, I don't know how long into the movie it was like flashback switch.
07:27
That's not big enough. I was like yo, mike, you got a little bit of some type of anger issues but, I'm sorry, I mean the first time we are not how long it took in, but them in the in that room and he had to cut his leg off that's actually good.
08:15 - Nachi (Host)
I like that idea of like the different criteria. So now, because we could spend hours on this, but let's start off with what's your number one top horror film, not you start. You probably heard me say this before, but my number one has always been I mean, you feel horror.
08:36
I knew that was on your list and and because it put a certain kind of well, number one. I watched this when I was young and it put a certain kind of fear in me, and reason being because it was it number one it was a true story. Right, it was based off of a true story. So when I see that, I started thinking about, oh, this shit could happen here. I remember one time we went to go visit family and Queens and Bobby's car the battery died if we literally we watched that fucking movie that we were about to leave and I was like, oh, I need a jump, whatever it's night.
09:24 - Damaris (Host)
And in Queens.
09:25 - Nachi (Host)
They got a lot of treats yes, and the houses look similar to the Amityville house and I just kept thinking, like Lord, I just want to go home, I just want to go back to the Bronx this is.
09:39 - Damaris (Host)
This is like there's no spirit in the.
09:41 - Nachi (Host)
Bronx right but, it's, it's the whole thing of you. Have this family who's excited to move into this brand new house. You know to them. They have no idea of the backstory, which, by the way, I think it's fucked up that the husband went and purchased this home and not telling his wife that a fucking Matt, you know murders happen in that home. The whole fucking family was murdered and then he gets possessed and the person that lived there before the, the son that killed everyone was possessed. All of that shit was reality to me. I was just like yeah, that idea that it was that I actually happen, yes, and.
10:30
And then I felt the fear that they all had, like I don't get me into house and I see a bunch of flies yeah, it's, yeah it. Just it put us a sense of fear that I don't think I've felt with any other movie okay that's fair. Completely, though, and nobody know.
11:00
The rest of y'all can not go completely though inside joke family nickname um, I'm gonna have to say it's Annabelle, just again cuz it's it's awful true event and just the fact that there's a doll that's the true event is that somebody had a doll and somebody else talked to a spirit and they were like you know what I'm darling a spirit. Those are the true events and listen that's.
11:27 - Damaris (Host)
That's good enough for me that's enough for me.
11:31 - Nachi (Host)
Isn't Annabelle one one of those stories?
11:34 - Damaris (Host)
yes, that's connected to. I'm a real horror.
11:36 - Nachi (Host)
Yes yeah, yeah so I mean, and it's connected to those paranormal, paranormal investigation, they, she had the extra Hollywood, you know well, they got a solid.
11:50 - Damaris (Host)
Hollywood, yeah, but we don't know what that's about. No, no, it's okay. I mean just that dog and I just look at people different when they have dolls in the house.
11:59 - Nachi (Host)
I'm like, hmm, I wonder wait, I think a poltergeist because of that movie, poltergeist and I never look under my bed. I'm already on bed. There's nothing for me to see there, I'm good no yes, I'm not looking under anybody's bed. I don't want to look at the damn tree outside that's tapping on my right, all of that motherfucking poltergeist man.
12:31 - Damaris (Host)
That movie was scary that was a good one my top horror film.
12:37 - Nachi (Host)
So I love science fiction and horror, so those combined that's like my favorite genre and so we're subgenre of horror. So for me it is alien. The first one now when the little monster rips through that poor man's abdomen, I was like, okay, I was like that is the definition of fuck around and find out they were fucking around on that planet, they and they found out you should not be here work I was like yo, that is, that is, fuck around, find out scenario and guess who survived the lady and her cat.
13:20
And I Was like cats know how to get away and cats know when something ain't right they sense. But nothing like the shining and Halloween are two that are very close to that and you know, in honor of Halloween I'm wearing my denim Michael Myers, mechanic to onesie, so for this call. I'm wearing that in honor of Michael Myers. Yeah, halloween is my second one.
13:47
Just those are good, but yeah, that that's it again. I feel like there's that reality because you have this, this, this person walking around stalking you, because that's all. I saw him. He was a stalker, not. She got seen where she's walking home from school. Yeah, I feel someone following me and and steps out the hedges. I was like when he was outside.
14:21 - Damaris (Host)
He needed to finish business.
14:23 - Nachi (Host)
He said you want to knock on my door earlier today? Right, yeah, I want to talk to you. She didn't want to talk to him.
14:34 - Damaris (Host)
He found out with the hanger later on in the. He ain't that. He's still alive right.
14:40 - Nachi (Host)
I mean, that's one that's just never gonna die. That's when it becomes real stupid, right.
14:45 - Damaris (Host)
Yeah, yeah.
14:46 - Nachi (Host)
I mean, honestly, I feel like with Halloween you probably didn't need more than the third one, because then it's just a joke, right? It's like okay, so he's just never gonna. He's gonna fall out seven stories, he's gonna be stabbed, he's gonna be set on fire and he's gonna switch the body, that's like Friday the 13th. The first one was really good I know, and then the rest it just started going downhill.
15:07
That's another reason. I don't understand why people don't understand why I don't like the idea of going to like Camp, of sleep away camp thing I'm like did you know why I'm 13? Did you not see how he showed up? Camp Crystal Lake looks like every place upstate New York. Why would I want to do that? Because it's fun. You have my best friend in college was like let's go on this camp trip. I was like I really don't want to go. She's up, but I don't want to go.
15:36 - Damaris (Host)
Wait, let me get us, is this?
15:37 - Nachi (Host)
the same best friend that Recommend a good day rum, yeah, that trash.
15:41 - Damaris (Host)
Yes.
15:43 - Nachi (Host)
You know who you are. This camp trip and we ended up going hiking at night and it's fucking, it's it's snow outside, it's cold and we got lost and All I kept seeing was like these signs on on the tree that says no trespassing and we clearly was trespassing. I was like we are fucking gonna die up in and it's like you got me up in this bitch. Oh, my goodness, we're fucking buffalo. Oh, we need to get our body here, we're gonna find out.
16:34
Basically, sure was. And a bunch of black people come on. They really didn't want to fuck with what's another one of your favorites opposite that you would say is like your top three.
16:51 - Damaris (Host)
Just cuz I saw it young nightmare on Elm Street yeah. Yeah just hearing that one, two. Had a light right next to my bed and when I saw that movie had a click clap and that light on Then you said one, two, nobody coming with me, not in these south Bronx streets. Nope words.
17:23 - Nachi (Host)
Talking about our first horror film that we watched together, april pools. I just remember your ass looking up to the sky. Listen up up in the CLA and stare it up. Miss like maybe a good half of the movie.
17:43 - Damaris (Host)
Yeah, crushed by that boat. It was a wrap for me. I was like this the whole night. Yeah.
18:01 - Nachi (Host)
We were eight, nine and like 11 yes right, and our cousin that took a new full well, and I'm gonna tell you I was listening when we confronted her about it. She said first she started.
18:20 - Damaris (Host)
She denied it.
18:22 - Nachi (Host)
Okay, well, maybe I was high.
18:31 - Damaris (Host)
I love her. No, and now I have a recorder on my DVR. Yeah.
18:45 - Nachi (Host)
But it was that first one right that first one you've never experienced no Before that.
18:53 - Damaris (Host)
I saw the blob come on like.
18:56 - Nachi (Host)
Yeah, those sci-fi movies, yeah, yeah.
19:05 - Damaris (Host)
You know Crushed, and then you see the blood just dripping.
19:12 - Nachi (Host)
Shit I'm like you know what I get? I get why the kids are so soft these days, because no, it was. But you know what Bobby was never. He was always like this is fantasy, like why you Get caught up with this right. And I remember when the kids are maybe they have they have to have been Like two and four around that time and we were visiting them in Florida and your father was like, oh, let me put they put on some TV. I'll put, I'll put Chuckie on. I was like Chucky, this is fake, this is funny and I'm like they're two and four.
20:10
They're not gonna find it funny a dog that moves and kills. I don't think I'm gonna find that funny. And he was just like.
20:23
He was like yeah he's like you bug it. They're gonna love this word. And I was like, no sir, they're not, they're two and four. So that should just tell you the level of censorship we had growing up when they came to film and any of that TV shows, there was no, no Censorship. Is there another horror film for you? Well, the other one was Halloween that you've already mentioned, but along the line, along those, the line of Amy Valhara, the conjuring has been a good one for me. Again, I I'm more attracted to the paranormal type of movies, because it's it. It also gives a story for me, because there's always like a you know, like a backstory to to what we're watching, like why they're dealing with this, and I like when they go back because that's how they get, that's how I get engaged, because I want to know what was the the beginning of the story, like how did this happen? How did we get here? Why do we got? You know, why do we have this ghost or this demon?
21:43
This is evil Entity coming after you, and so that's, you know. The conjuring was. My next but my top two has been a mini Valhara and Halloween. Those are my favorite. Yeah, I mean, I will say I'll just add, because this has to be added, but the shining, and I think most either you said the shining- is one of your favorites to the shining hands down. I mean, that is just a classic fest yeah creepy. I spoke. It's just like it has the Right, the jump scare factor, everything I mean.
22:19 - Damaris (Host)
I'll just call out one scene right, well, funny enough.
22:23 - Nachi (Host)
Growing up, I always saw the edited version, right, the one that was like on wpix, yeah, and. And when, as an adult, I finally saw the unedited version and I was like, holy shit, is that a guy in a bunny suit?
22:38
giving head to some guy in the room what is happening in this movie. I missed a lot with the edited version. This is even crazier than I remembered, and so I do. That movie is just a classic and I'm just gonna throw out a few honorable mentions. Creep show, scream 1. Yeah, scream was good, the Thing. And Phantasm, if you know you know, I'm surprised you didn't. Oh, I hate Phantasm.
23:14 - Damaris (Host)
I hate that fucking movie, you know, that's why.
23:17 - Nachi (Host)
The reason why I hate going to funeral homes, because of that fucking movie, that character, the tall man. Yes, oh, I hate that movie, the. Spears with the fucking Dagger.
23:27 - Damaris (Host)
That movie was crazy oh gosh, it was oh my. God, what did you think I was gonna say?
23:32 - Nachi (Host)
Creep show and Creep show no. The Ring Okay, so here's the thing. Yes, that movie was so stupid to me, but it was stupid, you know.
23:43
So I saw this movie with Natasha and I don't know what possessed us to watch it, because I've never recalled Natasha being into scary movies, but I think we were just like, let's go watch it. We watch it and I remember I didn't sleep for a week because I kept thinking that this hoe was gonna crawl out the TV. And then I spoke to Natasha like a week later. I was like, oh my God, this movie really had me crazy.
24:08 - Damaris (Host)
I didn't see she was like neither did I.
24:11 - Nachi (Host)
I'm never watching this type of stuff again.
24:13 - Damaris (Host)
I was like sorry, not sorry, and then the marriage was like yeah, I thought it was the most.
24:18 - Nachi (Host)
Yeah, it's really scary, but you know you may not wanna watch it at night. And she was like, in fact you should watch the Japanese version, the original movie, and cause it's much scarier.
24:33 - Damaris (Host)
And I hadn't seen the original one but that's what I heard.
24:37 - Nachi (Host)
Since you like to be like I don't care, I'm not scared, Go ahead, watch that one. I did watch it. I know she was like. I watched it in the dark by myself. I wasn't scared.
24:46 - Damaris (Host)
Y'all two walk crazy or whatever. I was like what the fuck.
24:51 - Nachi (Host)
And I was like whatever. I was like it was stupid. I'm here waiting to be scared and I'm like, yeah, no, she's coming out the television.
25:02 - Damaris (Host)
Yeah.
25:03 - Nachi (Host)
I didn't add it because I think when I saw it again I was like, oh, she was kind of right. I really don't know why it was so worked out, but there was nothing else that was. You know, it was just her coming out the television.
25:19 - Damaris (Host)
But it was the way she came out. Now she didn't see her face, only creepy.
25:24 - Nachi (Host)
And she was crawling like a spider. Ok, she was doing the crab walk. Thank you, no, yeah, but I went and moved sleep over.
25:33 - Damaris (Host)
Well, we did. Ok, congratulations to you. You are brave.
25:36 - Nachi (Host)
OK, look here.
25:38 - Damaris (Host)
Yes.
25:39 - Nachi (Host)
No worries, but she came up with this category name, which I think is great. What does it mean when we say that a movie is so bad that it's good? Now we have those.
25:53 - Damaris (Host)
I want to hear from you guys, what is that for? You. I think we probably have the same movie.
25:58 - Nachi (Host)
Well, you start, you start, brother.
26:01 - Damaris (Host)
You have to say rubber, rubber has to be number one.
26:04 - Nachi (Host)
Yes, and I don't think enough people know about the movie Rubber.
26:07 - Damaris (Host)
No, this is an instinct to lax it. You have to watch this.
26:12 - Nachi (Host)
And who was the one that introduced us to rubber Our father? May he rest in power. That man. It was like anybody that came to his he discovered the movie and anybody that came to the house. He said I got this movie. This movie is so good. He said no, I think it was like this movie, only stupid people like it.
26:30 - Damaris (Host)
So he's like, let me show this movie to you.
26:33 - Nachi (Host)
Because I know you're going to like it, so it's like you're, like you're insulted. Wait, you just said you liked it, so therefore you're stupid. And now you say I know you're going to like it, which now you're calling me stupid, so I'm like.
26:47 - Damaris (Host)
OK, yep.
26:49 - Nachi (Host)
Typical Franco.
26:51 - Damaris (Host)
And it was an instinct, but he was right.
26:53 - Nachi (Host)
It was so stupid, it was so bad, it was good. I mean the absurdity of it, it's just. Yeah, it's about a damn tire that, when it vibrates, your head blows up. And if the rubber doesn't like you, if that tire don't like you, he's going to start to shake and you're done so. It's a rat Done so. On GP, I think I'm going to watch it this weekend, just like you have to. You know what We'll watch it over the holidays when I'm there.
27:26 - Damaris (Host)
Najee, yes, In honor of our father, we're going to watch forever. Yes, and those of you who have ever seen it, you have to see it.
27:35 - Nachi (Host)
Yes, if you love bad movies that are so good, so bad that they're good, that this is one, I have to say for me will be also. Added to that there's this movie called Rodents, and this is one that I think Adam and I found it when we first started dating, and that's like the love story too. That's like the movie that frames our love story of a relationship so where we both realize we love these terrible movies, terrible horror movies, and so basically it's like about and it's Rodents with a Z at the end, so not Rodents like S, rodents with a Z, because that was the director I don't know, they're not ready for this movie.
28:20
Very altogether.
28:22 - Damaris (Host)
Right, but in this movie Najee.
28:25 - Nachi (Host)
Once they get a little toxic liquid in them or on them, they become like giants and they attack. And you know it's Like New York City rats. Yes, and they were gigantic and the movie was so bad because the rats were like mechanical looking. It was like, oh, Like the hedgehog, moving very slowly and it's like ah, and the eyes were bright red and it was like it reminded me of the rats that you would see in front of the buildings in New York City when labor unions are protesting a building for using non-union workers, and it's like a gigantic rat that's in front of the corporate building.
29:09
That's exactly what this rat looked like. You know, Rodents is a classic. If you know, you know. If you know, you know.
29:16 - Damaris (Host)
That's funny.
29:17 - Nachi (Host)
Another old one that in the rest of your poll I remember this one was a pumpkin head.
29:24 - Damaris (Host)
Yeah, not just that I was going to be on my list, but I was you know what?
29:27 - Nachi (Host)
Because I already had too many, but I don't want to hear this Pumpkin head.
29:31 - Damaris (Host)
Yes, leprechaun, it was one of them.
29:34 - Nachi (Host)
The crazy part is, the fucking movie is called Pumpkin Head, but this creature didn't even look like a pumpkin. That's why it kind of felt like the pumpkin. It was like a rotten pumpkin on his head. No, he did not look like a pumpkin. I gotta watch it again. The only connection was a pumpkin patch that they buried him in. What else do you need? Guys Like I feel like come on actually.
29:58 - Damaris (Host)
It's close enough.
29:59 - Nachi (Host)
Thank you, and it's always and it always appears in some backwood area, I think of West Virginia. You know, In the backwood where you have Appalachia. Yes, yes, that's exactly what I'm thinking.
30:20 - Damaris (Host)
You know what?
30:25 - Nachi (Host)
Pick up to the Appalachian Mountains, like that is a very beautiful place, though, because what we go there to. It is beautiful, but yes, it can also be creepy, yes, but then they had this witch who bought this pumpkin head creature. Now I gotta watch it again. I swear you had a pumpkin head. She looked like a. She looked like she was like 200 years old.
30:50 - Damaris (Host)
That's how witches look at you.
30:52 - Nachi (Host)
Thin hair. Thin hair. She was bald, but she had like scraggly hair coming out of her scalp. Oh my goodness.
31:02 - Damaris (Host)
They were like we were doing all the we're gonna do all the stereotypes all of it all of it, all of it and I and it worked oh that, that was a super movie.
31:14 - Nachi (Host)
That was dude, but it was good enough that you watched the entire thing all the way to the yeah we're, he was buried in a pumpkin patch.
31:22 - Damaris (Host)
Yeah, I mean we're not a fan.
31:24 - Nachi (Host)
We're not a family of quitters, so no, no, no, we always gotta see where it takes us, like, okay, I gotta see where this fucking movie is gonna go. Now wait a minute. Um, but for Cito mentioned leprechaun. Yeah, did you say, was in leprechaun too, was it, was it?
31:45 - Damaris (Host)
Jennifer Aniston was in the movie.
31:47 - Nachi (Host)
I do remember that she was. I love. I love when known actors are in these stupid early. It's great, because you know what. Everyone's gotta start somewhere. Yes, yeah, definitely, definitely, I mean, but it makes you think like the hand is how you started.
32:05 - Damaris (Host)
Um, wait, but another one.
32:07 - Nachi (Host)
Uh, this is a classic. I don't know if you guys seen this. One basket case Is about conjoined twins that were separated right, but one twin is deformed and the other twin is, like you know, able bodied, normal, and he would carry his deformed twin brother in a wicker basket. That's how bad I feel about the movie that I have here.
32:35
And obviously the brother in the basket is a little bit crazy. So that's why they call the movie basket case. And you know he gets a little jealous that his brother gets to live his best life and he's like I'm in a basket. I mean that movie was so, so ridiculous. But you know that's why it's up there for me for like so bad, it's good that an evil dead too.
32:59
I mean like I'm not even gonna go into deep into Evil dead too, but you have a skeleton that starts dancing in the middle of the movie and you're like what is the purpose of this Skeleton doing like a ballet type thing? Where is this going? And I love it. I Was great basket case movies sounds a lot like this other movie I was gonna mention. It's called malignant and it's actually a newer movie.
33:28
I bet you it was based off a basket case. It had to because it's about Conjoined twins, but you don't know this until later on in in the movie. Damn y'all stay ruining a movie for other people. Who's like maybe you know us to bring up movies for people to potentially watch, but we're like that don't bother me. You tell me about. I go watch it. I gotta see the entire movie. I gotta see you know how it starts. This is I. It does not bother me so.
33:59 - Damaris (Host)
Oh well, that's obvious, that is obvious.
34:03 - Nachi (Host)
If you a type of person that you can't hear any parts of a movie because it ruins it for you, maybe you don't need to listen to the episode.
34:10 - Damaris (Host)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
34:10 - Nachi (Host)
I think I'm gonna put a disclaimer. This would be the first time we have a disclaimer, oh wow you know, yeah, I mean, you know not. You know, we talked about this like if um, we don't put a disclaimer on a show, because we are a show of.
34:23
Use your common sense right so, uh, if you need a disclaimer, probably this ain't your show, but but you know what? But because this is, you know, we are Um Providing some inside stuff for the movies. You know I'm gonna put a disclaimer my first time, but I will because I think this is important. But I think, you know, like, if we think about Wait, but for Tito I'll. Is there anything else outside of, uh, in addition to leprechaun?
35:00 - Damaris (Host)
You know the new trucking movie was dumb.
35:02 - Nachi (Host)
But what? But? Was it so dumb? Was it good, though, or was it just bad? No, it was funny. Okay, which one? Which one?
35:09 - Damaris (Host)
the new trucking movie.
35:11 - Nachi (Host)
I haven't seen that one, yeah.
35:13 - Damaris (Host)
I don't know when it was, when it was made, but it was recent and it was just the whole storyline the way Like it was built bad in the factory was affected and then of course, the spirit got into him and it was just.
35:28 - Nachi (Host)
Oh chalky.
35:29 - Damaris (Host)
Yeah, well, one part that's crazy is that they killed, they decapitated head From someone and they put it in, they wrap it up and they give it to the next door labor as a gift. So she thought she was getting a nice gift from the next door labor.
35:45 - Nachi (Host)
She didn't even know that it was a head.
35:48 - Damaris (Host)
Wow, the level of disrespect to the neighborhood and the kid had to go back and get the head and toss it down the center. I mean it's, oh, it sounds like a damn Ouija board. It's, it's, it's pretty funny, it's funny. It's not scary, but funny.
36:02 - Nachi (Host)
I think that's what makes it good right, because I feel like these, these movies are good for, for families to watch together, because, okay, and I'm not talking about kids, I'm talking about, like you know, like us, right.
36:20 - Damaris (Host)
Adults in the family.
36:22 - Nachi (Host)
It's gotta watch that watch it together, like us, you know okay because, we love to. We love to do some commentary Throughout the movie.
36:31 - Damaris (Host)
I think that's what that is true.
36:33 - Nachi (Host)
Yes so.
36:34 - Damaris (Host)
That's how we enjoy that.
36:36 - Nachi (Host)
Yes, yes, that's what makes it so good, because it gives us enough. It gives us enough to use so we could comment on like right, can you believe this happened? Right, it's so absurd that you it's just like facts. Who does this? Facts, no, that's true. Why would this happen? Yeah, why would you be there like that?
36:57 - Damaris (Host)
Yeah, and I think you're right because I think that's some other people what makes these movies so good, even though they're so bad, I think?
37:07 - Nachi (Host)
obviously they don't have a big budget. You know what this team gets a for effort for trying with what they have. And I think that's makes me enjoy even more knowing that and and again the absurd storyline, the plot, that just is so outrageous, like again, you're like basket case, you're carrying your brother in a, in a wicker basket how does what what? But it worked, it just worked, and you know. And then sometimes for some of the movies it's like the terrible acting or the terrible dialogue.
37:44 - Damaris (Host)
Like you're like who speaks that way. I'm just saying that's what to me, you know, makes like with these movies good even though they're so bad.
37:55 - Nachi (Host)
Right, right, right. There are things that you could overlook, because the overall, the overall Movie is is enjoyable, so it's enough that you could sit through it, because there are some movies where you could. You you're watching it and you can't even finish it. It's so boring.
38:13 - Damaris (Host)
Yeah, or they're just bad. They're just bad, yeah, yes, yes, nothing about it's good.
38:19 - Nachi (Host)
It's not absurd enough.
38:21 - Damaris (Host)
It's not cheap enough, it's yeah.
38:25 - Nachi (Host)
Like the dialogue is acting, is trying to be good when it really should be bad. Um, you know, is there any other movie that we, like these are must watches, whether they're good or bad, that we've kind of missed? For me, I do like, like.
38:42
I think one of my favorite movies that we watched On christmas eve was your necks and that was like a horror slash Thriller, so not just straight horror, but it was really more like a balance of and I. That movie was really fun to watch Because it was just like what's the name? Your necks? Oh, oh, yes, yes.
39:02 - Damaris (Host)
Yeah, that was good.
39:03 - Nachi (Host)
It was good.
39:04 - Damaris (Host)
Uh-huh, that was fun to watch cabin in the woods.
39:08 - Nachi (Host)
Okay, yeah, not cabin fever. Yeah, I think it was cabin in the woods. Okay, yeah, though, because it was like a puzzle, right like, yeah, yes, yeah, I was pretty cool.
39:16 - Damaris (Host)
I mean the storyline was crazy that they had different monsters for different scenes and but it was pretty cool. Oh, no, it was it was.
39:28 - Nachi (Host)
It was good, and I think it gets like pretty high ratings on the tomato meter, and I think we covered a lot of top ones. I Think there's plenty that. What I am finding, though, is that we talked about a lot of Older movies, but I mean, to me that's kind of telling, because I just feel like those are the ones that have been good, like I feel like the 80s was the best time for some of the scariest, craziest movies.
39:57
I mean, you know 80s, 90s. I think there are some good movies out there now, but none that I really again like. Your next and that came out like I want to say 2013 or something, but Nothing has been like. Oh my god, this is it, at least for me.
40:15 - Damaris (Host)
And I feel like you know what?
40:16 - Nachi (Host)
there's plenty that we discussed that. Check them out. Check out the bad ones. That's gonna make you laugh Like basket case.
40:26 - Damaris (Host)
Rubber. Rubber is a good, good laugh. Yes it's hilarious.
40:36 - Nachi (Host)
I Good laugh. I Think a lot of the movies nowadays, nowadays, I feel, are Because we watch a lot, of, a lot of these horror films. But I think to your point, they're just yeah right, Just forget about they didn't do anything for me. Nothing like you know. An alien coming out your belly.
41:04 - Damaris (Host)
Because you want to be out here in these alien streets, sniffing and looking at stuff.
41:09 - Nachi (Host)
Okay.
41:10 - Damaris (Host)
He ate a bad burrito.
41:11 - Nachi (Host)
Yeah, he's like oh, let me look at this flower looking thing. And then it fell on and jumped right on his face Come on. He fucked around and he fell out. They don't make him like that, no more. If anything, they just, like you know, try to copy and it's like I've seen there, have been there, done that, so and well, there's movie like, movies like Like get out right, mm-hmm. I don't find that Scary, although it falls under the heart.
41:39 - Damaris (Host)
It does, and I didn't either like yeah.
41:43 - Nachi (Host)
It just didn't. It didn't, you know, it didn't fit for me in terms of like oh, this is what I would consider a horror film, but it's right. Obviously, has been listed as a horror film, and I think that's that's probably a big part of it. It's just that a lot of these movie that I wouldn't consider as horror films, like quiet, the quiet place I think it's another one that's listed as a horror. Yeah.
42:08
I can see the why it is. I mean, they're monsters that are trying to kill you. Yeah, yeah, but I find, yeah, I guess, so I guess it's more hard because I she's like I buy now.
42:21
She's like I didn't get any jump scares. Yeah, I mean going back to get out, and I Would say that part of what makes it horror. I Feel like it's a horror film for people that are not black. This, I don't know what to say. So I think that's why you're like I don't really see this as scary, I just see this as reality.
43:14 - Damaris (Host)
No, you're right, I don't know. I don't know.
43:17 - Nachi (Host)
This actually has been fun. We covered a lot of films. We covered some Films where you can get your jump scare or films that you can Just be entertained by just how bad they are, but they're still good and fun to watch. And so, you know, we hope that we bring a little bit of lightheartedness and some levity into your space, because there's always a lot going on and sometimes you just need a break from the chaos that's out there and Enjoy life in a different, in a different way with your family, and you know the way we like to do that is watching a horror film.
