Similar to Student Bodies, Wacko is a 1982 horror parody that primarily satirizes the slasher genre, all while cracking jokes at other popular horror movies of the time. This one centers around a Lawnmower Killer with an irreverent brand of comedy that basically throws jokes at the viewer in rapid-fire succession. We talk about how successful this is, the killer reveal, and whether Wacko deserves the multiple cast talents at its disposal!
We’re also drinking Tree House Brewing’s Halloween beer, the Evil Julius triple IPA!

Cookie Walk of Halloween horror over here let Let the Black Run podcast All season long.
September and October will be celebrating with creaky funny our parodies just bring your favourites from satirical splashes to classic parodies and even some rollback Spooks.
0:30
I’m even told Everton to go sololy rising from the dead.
Celebrate with us welcome background podcast as we dive into Halloween.
0:53
Hey guys, welcome back to the blood and background podcast.
Ryan from closeplaystation.com and I’m joined with Michael Hos Martin.
How’s it going?
Yeah, we’re doing pretty well.
I think actually just to start it off, we had a a nice little day yesterday for someone’s happy birthday.
1:10
So yeah, happy birthday to you.
Oh, it’s me.
It’s you.
Yeah, it’s, it’s you unfortunates.
Suffering from old age now.
So we spent spent a good part of the day yesterday enjoying some brewskies at a local place that we love and keep dear to our heart, and also the beer we have on the show today, fortuitously because we were able to grab those while we were there.
1:42
So we’ll talk about them, sure.
Well, I want to spoil it now.
We were at the treehouse compound in Saratoga.
The treehouse compound.
That’s right.
It is a compound, isn’t it?
It’s big.
We looked like a nice fetching gay couple there with you with your with your, you know, your sweater on for work and you know very true.
2:04
No wonder why they had somebody come over and be like you guys can’t figure out how to get this the propane working on this.
Can you be warm?
Yeah, absolutely.
We had a good time though.
It’s nice and we’ll talk about the beer that we have for the show later on.
2:23
But yeah, this and it’s also, it just happened to be, you know, Martin’s birthday is around spooky season.
So it’s nice because if we go to these places, a lot of times they also have their Halloween beers or whatever.
So we were able to snag a couple of those for the show today.
2:40
But yeah, the other thing that we’re doing again, we’re still continuing ha ha, Halloween, enjoying the the humor in horror movies, the horror comedies and horror parodies and all kinds of satire.
Last week we did Student Bodies, which, you know, again, was one of the earlier horror parodies or satires of the time, You know, especially considering the release date of 1981, which was very, very close to the heyday of slasher films, especially, you know, at the beginning of the slasher craze.
3:18
And similarly, on today’s episode, we have another movie from 1981 released very, very closely to Student Bodies and resembling in a lot of ways the same type of film as Student Bodies with, you know, maybe a different mix of comedy here and there, but it a very similar style and even related to the slasher formula as well.
3:45
And as we’ll talk about in this one, this one tends to riff on popular movies of the time period that weren’t slashers, which is kind of different from Student Bodies.
Student Bodies really, as we talked about, stayed pretty in in its lane with Halloween, Friday the 13th, little bit of prom night, Black Christmas maybe here and there, but within the slasher wheelhouse.
4:09
Now this movie that we’re talking about today, really straight outside, you know, even though it was parodying slashers particularly, it’s straight outside of that genre to kind of talk about or reference popular movies of the time period that might not have been slashers.
So I found that kind of interesting because again, when we’re doing these types of releases, you know, we try to structure the episodes in a way we’re not doing a similar movie like back-to-back.
4:35
But in this case, it just kind of happened to fall that way, where we’re kind of comparing 2 movies that are extremely similar, released very, very close together.
It just happened to, to fall because actually we, we, we swapped out a, you know, a movie for at the end of this series that we wanted to do instead.
4:56
So it kind of just worked out that way.
But we’re talking about 1981’s Wacko today.
And again, this movie, I would argue probably not very well known.
I don’t know if you have you ever heard of Wacko before?
5:14
Yes, I have actually.
Oh, you?
Yeah, yeah.
I mean wacko from the Animanians.
God damn it, I was going to say in the Yako and the Warner sister died.
Wait, sorry, I stole your joke from you.
Just wait.
Yeah, wait to just, you know, yeah.
5:31
Sorry I stole that, but yeah.
I was doing that a lot throughout the entire thing, just going hello nurse.
Yeah.
‘Cause there’s a lot of sexy sexy in the movies.
That’s true.
This is another one of those sort of what you would call sex teen romps or sex comedies of the time as well.
5:53
Not necessarily its main function, but for sure does include a lot of that.
Now I think also this movie, as I was saying is, is just not really well known.
6:09
It’s not a movie that really I don’t think it got a lot of like reviews.
I don’t know that it had a super wide release.
It is a pretty cheaply made movie as you can tell right away.
And what’s that?
It said how dare you?
And the other thing is that, yeah, I didn’t even know about it until probably a few years ago when Vinegar Syndrome happened to drop it my way for a review.
6:37
They were releasing it on Blu-ray and I had no idea about it.
So I checked it out and it happened to be too, that it is also a Halloween movie, which it was another reason why I really wanted to include it in this version of Ha Ha Halloween because it just makes sense.
You know, you’re doing technically doing Halloween season and you want to include a few movies that might tangentially be related to Halloween.
7:00
Well, Wacko is 1.
It takes place around Halloween and there’s like a whole Halloween prom thing that doesn’t really make a whole lot of sense when you really stop and think about it.
But who’s having their Halloween?
Who’s having their prom at Halloween?
But regardless, I thought it was a cool pic because I don’t think a lot of people do know about it.
7:19
I think it is even probably less well known than student bodies.
I’m just not really well referenced except for the fact that it does have a lot of people in it.
Like people that you would recognize, you know, actors that you kind of thinking like, how the hell did they get in this movie with who got who roped them into this thing?
7:43
Half the cast.
Yeah, exactly.
Now, like we said, you haven’t seen it before.
Never heard of it before.
This one was directed by Graydon Clark and that name probably doesn’t ring a bell to you because he was not a really well known director of horror movies.
8:08
But he did do a few horror movies and one that I wanted to point out is the film Black Shampoo, which is technically a black exploitation movie.
Now, have you?
You’ve probably never seen it, never heard of it or anything like that, right?
8:26
Heard of that, I’ve never seen it.
But he did direct that black exploitation movie Black Shampoo.
I’ve never seen it either myself, but great name that instantly makes you like.
What is that?
He was also the right the also the writer for it.
8:43
So you.
Know, right?
Yes, yeah, yeah.
He wrote a lot of his stuff, not again, like I said, not very well known.
And the movies that he did make direct, not generally that well regarded.
8:58
Another one that he did that you can find on IMDb, which again, I’ve never seen this one either, but it’s a Jack Palace movie, Angels Brigade, and it has like a 2.3 out of 10 on IMDb rating right now.
So yes, he, you know, did a lot of movies.
9:18
A lot of them we’re not that good, but we’re not here to talk about those poorly received movies.
We’re here to talk about wacko.
Like I said, has a Halloween aesthetic to it.
Very limited, I think, as we’ll discuss and just briefly throwing some names out there.
9:39
The main cast includes Joe Don Baker.
And I know you had said like you, you instantly you texted me and you’re like, oh, I love Joe Don Baker, which kind of was a little bit weird to me because like not really many people would.
9:56
It’s not like a household name for most people.
I think like he, he definitely had a number of films, but like, no one is really sitting around, you know, off the top of their head playing like, you know.
You don’t remember him the in the Congo.
10:12
In Congo, Yeah.
No, I don’t really, because I’ve only actually seen Congo one time.
But that’s more than enough, right?
Right.
And he’s also in Don’t Lie Too.
And he was in Fletch.
Yep, he’s Co starred in Fletchers.
You know Chevy Chase.
10:28
Mars Attacks.
So yeah, like he had, he had a pretty good, good run.
Well, like I said, like he was like, I mainly know him and you know, he was in Goldeneye and tomorrow never dies as the CIA agent Jack Wade.
But before that he was actually Brad Whitaker, the arms salesman, the main one of the main villains in the living daylights, Timothy Dalton’s first Bond film.
10:51
So Yep, Yep, enough.
But it’s great you like you like first time.
I like he comes running like holy shit.
And we were like without even having like Wikipedia pull up like Joe Don Baker.
Let’s.
Go Yeah, that kind of surprised me.
I was, I was like, whoa, I didn’t realize that you recognized him like right away, but I thought it was pretty cool.
11:12
And then not only that, not only Joe, Joe, Don Baker, I don’t know if you’re as familiar with George Kennedy.
Dude, but not as much.
I was more you with Charles Napier being like, what are you doing here?
George Kennedy is kind of one of those character actors that would show up in quite a few of these types of movies or show up in a lot of like cult films.
11:43
He was in Creepshow 2.
Not that that’s maybe probably doesn’t draw much attention for you because it’s not like he stands out in that film.
But yes, he he was in a number of cult film classics of the 70s and 80s showing up just kind of like this in this movie where he’s just kind of there and, you know, could be humorous, could be just, you know, a serious role, but kind of recognizable for cult film fans, as the film kind of makes clear throughout, you know, as it kind of plays him up to be sort of a ridiculous character and then at the end kind of comes back to him.
12:26
And then not only that, but like EG Daily is here too being she’s, she’s credited as Elizabeth Daily here.
So you would be, you know, understandably not recognizing the name at first because throughout most of her career, she’s gone as EG Daily.
12:44
But in her early years in her acting roles before she went into more of voice acting, she used to be called Elizabeth Daily.
So.
I know.
And you were, you know, excoriating me for, you know, Yeah.
13:00
Like I was like, oh, she’s EG Dalias in this whole thing.
You’re like, you don’t recognize her.
That’s like, sorry, I don’t recognize her.
Acting credits.
I, you know, know the voice acting credits.
OK.
Like Tommy Pickle, like every, like, you know, classy Jospo like production on Nickelodeon from the 90s to early 2000s.
13:23
I definitely found it interesting too that like they have all these characters and they kind of are just here for like sometimes a couple of minutes.
Like you mentioned Charles Napier and he’s here for like 2 minutes tops.
13:41
That’s the only.
That’s all he gets as like the asshole chief.
But you know, yeah, recognizable.
So really interesting.
I, I don’t know, I just want to kind of go through the cast a little bit and flesh them out because for all of like the, you know, the very limited range that this movie had, it had quite a number of people in it that you would recognize.
14:04
So, all right.
But with that said, let’s take a break real quick and talk about the beer that we’ve got on the show.
Because this is again, we went to Treehouse and this is actually a beer that’s been like 2 years in the making for like I, I’ve really wanted to get this beer, you know, as since I saw it release and it’s just been out of reach most of the time because we weren’t able to get to a tree house that was in like Massachusetts.
14:34
But now that it’s so close to us, so near us, I would definitely wanted to make it a stopping point for me to grab at some point.
And luckily it was there when we were at the, the compound.
So I had to grab it along with a couple of other spooky beers that they have besides this one, they also release evil green and evil haze.
14:53
I missed out on the evil haze.
I think I got a different one.
I didn’t I didn’t get that one.
But yeah, I I was really excited to see all the Halloween beers there and the one that I’ve always wanted to get because just because the Julius is the stable beer of tree house and the can is so beautiful.
15:13
I I love the love the design, the simple yet, you know, very Halloweeny design of the can.
It’s it’s called Evil Julius and it’s a rendition of their Julius line that’s a triple IPA and that they’ve, you know, kind of made sinister for the Halloween season.
15:35
But yeah, the can I love.
Do you like the the can art on it?
I love it.
It’s like eye-catching.
Yeah, it’s the Julius like logo.
Would like it more like golden and you know.
Like orange and orange and blackish.
15:51
Spooky.
And there’s a skull in the background too.
If you, you know, if you’re looking at it in the dark, you can’t really see.
But if you shine a light on it, you’ll see that.
Oh.
I just, yeah, you just notice that.
The skull floating there in the back.
Helping out your lazy eyed can’t you know blind a friend.
16:11
So thank you, I didn’t even know.
Didn’t even see that, huh?
Yeah, it’s pretty cool.
It’s pretty cool.
And yeah, so I guess I’ll let you go first because I’ve spoken a lot throughout this introduction.
What do you what do you think about the evil Julius?
It’s pretty damn good.
16:29
Very, very hoppy, very juicy.
Scott, like very prominent, like blood, typical blood orange, like tangerine flavors to it.
16:48
That’s like where the citrus totally lies in very smooth, easy drinking.
Get a little bit of the alcohol heat at the back end, which isn’t bad, especially on like a day like today because it’s pretty cold up here in upstate New York.
17:04
So does that have like a nice warming effect like you’re drinking like a nice Brandy?
But I haven’t had a tree house, you know Julius, let alone one of their hazy Ipas, and been anywhere near disappointed I’ve bought.
17:24
Unlike those fine folks there, I’m not going to be the one to pick out the one of the 30 hops in here, but it’s just good, like it a lot.
Give it a shot.
That four pack is worth the $25.00 so.
Yeah, yeah, I, I agree.
17:39
I think it’s really tasty.
You know, for a triple, you can’t really taste the alcohol content too much to it.
It goes down pretty smooth.
What I do notice is that it is a very hazy brew.
It’s exceptionally hoppy, you know, got a slight bitterness to it, but also what it has is a nice candied flavor to it because it can be on the sweeter side, you know, especially with the the triple hops.
18:04
Now in terms of like the all the brewing terminology and things, they throw a lot around on the can that, you know, sounds interesting.
Doesn’t necessarily make a whole lot of temperature.
Yeah, yeah.
High mash temperature and they’ve additional.
Sweet.
Malts.
18:20
That’s yeah.
I think the one that stood out to me was where they said they are an arduously selected blend of hops throughout the brewing process, including in the bright tank.
So like, again, like, I don’t know, to me doesn’t really mean all that much, but it does boil down to a really good beer and I’m, I’m really enjoying it.
18:41
I think it’s very smooth at 9%.
I think it’s a little dangerous, to be honest with you, because it does go down so smooth and it’s nicely sweet and hoppy.
I think it’s overall really tasty.
Nice citrus flavour to it.
I think I like to how it does have that sort of like candied sweet note to it, which kind of makes it feel appropriate for Halloween.
19:03
So yeah, I, I, I’m pleasantly surprised, I guess not surprised, but I enjoy this beer and I’m glad that, you know, I’ve waited for it for two years and now that I’ve had it, I think it’s pretty solid.
So, you know, definitely check it out if you have the opportunity to.
And again, like I said, I think they have at least three or four different Halloween themed beers around.
19:25
So yeah.
What you get, what you get is like something anytime we have done a tree house beer, the one thing that is very much of no is the fact that they have like if you look at like their pick up on, you know, where we were, they have over 20 different fucking beers for you to choose.
19:49
And they’re all varying styles.
Like, where else are you going to get, you know, a Mars in a Baltic Porter, a Schwartz beer, cream ale, alt beer, double Ipas, You know, like, holy shit.
20:05
Right.
So which apparently they got 2 Marzins out.
You didn’t know that.
Oh really?
No, I didn’t know that either.
Brisk with brisk, which we I don’t we didn’t do in solitude, it looks like.
20:22
Interesting.
I think we, yeah, we did solitude once before.
I don’t think we did Brisk ever.
I’m trying to see what the difference is, but.
Yeah, yeah, I don’t.
I didn’t even, I don’t even know if I remember seeing Brisk there, but.
20:39
It’s on their page for the Saratoga.
Yeah, I don’t know.
Interesting.
Oh, well, we missed out.
I’ll.
Go.
I’ll go down next.
Week go back we need.
More We need more Marcets.
20:55
There you go.
All right, well, let’s get into wacko.
Wacko.
It’s.
It’s wild and wacky.
Don’t you want to just do that like, like you’re five years old and you just found out?
Does anyone like, do that anymore?
21:14
Or is that like a long long start?
I feel like they don’t.
Yeah, Yeah, I feel like they don’t anymore.
So the wacko is centered around this killing like a legendary killing done by the lawn mower killer who at the beginning of this movie you see donning almost like in it’s almost like like the adventures of Pete and Pete.
21:43
The the episode Halloweenies.
I feel like they fucking watched wacko and they were like, let’s do that for a Pete and Pete episode because it is so oddly related to wacko.
Like so you get the you know, there’s a pumpkin headed guy, right, Because in this movie, The lawnmower killer forever reason just sports a pumpkin on his head.
22:07
And you also have the funeral March that would be play, you know, the boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom, which was a theme that they also use for the Alfred Hitchcock show, which is another reason why that keeps popping up again and again in this movie.
22:25
But Halloweenies, the Pete episode also uses that theme and I just find it weird that they are so closely related.
So I would be very interested if anybody who worked on P&P.
Big wacko.
Big wacko.
22:42
Fans.
Yeah, happens to be listening to this episode and they’re like, yeah, that’s actually what was inspiring us for the Halloweenies episode.
I’m very curious to know because there’s a lot of like coincidences that seem like that’s it like a possibility.
22:57
Yeah, exactly.
It just seems like they were influenced by wacko.
But anyway, yeah, so there’s a pumpkin headed lawnmower killer.
He goes around with this giant fucking 1980s push that they.
Which doesn’t even look gas operated.
23:13
It looks like an old school like.
Now again, is that a thing?
Was that a thing back in the 80s?
I don’t know.
I don’t, I don’t recall ever seeing or hearing of a time where like a giant, they didn’t have like a tractor.
23:28
They had a gigantic gas powered push mower.
I I don’t, this is something that I’ve I was wondering when I was watching this movie is like, is that an actual thing?
Because I, I don’t know, I’ve never seen one before, but that’s what the killer uses is that giant lawnmower.
23:45
And the beginning of the movie, it shows like 13 years ago, our you know, our protagonist’s sister was murdered by the lawnmower killer and gruesome fashion right in front of her.
And then throughout the movie, the characters will keep bringing up things like I know that you’re scarred for life from the images that you must carry around with you every day of your life.
24:08
It’s like a running joke throughout, but you know, the trauma of that past 13 years ago is what really keeps the wacko theme going throughout the movie.
What do you think about the like the the pumpkin headed killer and stuff?
24:25
What do you like that inclusion for Halloween or?
So the problem that this movie kind of has is the fact that it’s like, unlike Student Bodies, which was focused on like a couple of, you know, films to parody, this is like all over the fucking place.
24:45
First off, wacko.
What’s that?
A parody of Psycho?
There’s a lot of Psycho references here, a lot of Hitchcock references.
Why, especially in 82 would you be like, you know, trying to pander to like that?
25:01
I don’t know, because it doesn’t fit in at all with the pastiche of fucking these, you know, very grindhouse, you know, exploitive, you know, yeah, films, I mean, great, I guess you could say.
25:18
Like people were thinking like Psycho was crude back in the 60s.
But still even besides that, like it’s just like with especially when it comes to like the whole like, you know, like teens fucking all this and that.
Like it doesn’t, you know, it’s oddly framed.
25:36
And I think it’s a funny idea for like a legend.
Like, you know, with like a lot of these movies, like, oh, Jason comes from the lake or, oh, Michael Myers, he’s going to walk around.
He’s the monster.
25:51
Or, you know, Freddy touches children here.
It’s like, oh, some asshole with a pumpkin head on it with his giant lawnmower.
Just most people over it’s, you know, Yeah, being incredibly over the top, Yeah.
26:07
Which is is a funny enough idea.
I don’t think overall, though, when it comes to like the pumpkin head killer, it doesn’t like there’s just, yeah, not like not enough.
And really, you don’t really get to see that enough in the film to really, you know, have an investment into it.
26:25
And I do think, too, that the occlusion of the pumpkin head as a killer is probably just because this movie kind of wanted a Halloween esque setting.
But it doesn’t really do a whole lot to make it seem like it’s Halloween throughout.
Like, you know, the film will continuously tell you it’s Halloween and it’ll say like, Oh yeah, we’re having our Halloween prom and.
26:47
Hold on, excuse me, hold on.
It’s not the Halloween.
Prom where they call it.
Halloween Pumpkin.
Prom.
That’s right.
They say that like 49 times.
I almost, I almost wanted to mark it down for like every time they say it like take a drink anytime they say it’s like, hey, great honey ham.
27:06
Like who would call the Halloween prom?
Like, why not one Halloween dance?
Who?
There’s no such thing as a Halloween prom.
The Halloween prom is that you know, like you know.
That’s what I was saying.
There’s no I’ve never heard of a Halloween prom where they they roll prom into the Halloween party.
27:24
This is just as lazy and slipshaw as Lacey Chabert making everything into strudel fast.
True for that one movie, like I got strudel.
This this large town, it’s going to go tits up if we don’t have enough strudel things here.
27:41
You know, where’s Franco Nero teaching about like, you know, like coming out and being like, you know, like, oh, the pump the the great gourd of America pumpkins.
You don’t know how good you have it.
27:56
Like it’s just, it’s fucking stupid.
Yeah, I And again, what’s the fascination here?
Student bodies and wacko with school dances like?
Is it just because there’s a a common thing that I guess they would have back in the day?
28:12
Is well, Kerry, I think you think Kerry with the prom and stuff, which was I.
Guess you know prom in prom night, but yeah, but like.
If you think I say, but if you think though too, at least with like what like when student bodies is taking the piss out of that emotion.
It was funny because the principals up there like, Oh yeah, they’re dead and we got the prom night tonight.
28:34
We also had the football game.
He lists like 12 things off and he says like we and you’re probably wondering why we have it all in the same night.
Well, I can’t afford anymore in the budget, so we got to get it all out in one night.
Like, you know, because it’s pretty funny here.
It’s just, you know.
Yeah, it’s just kind of rolled.
28:49
It’s just, you know, rolled in like a, you know, we’re having a dance.
And I guess what I was saying too is I think I think like the film wanted to have that seasonal setting, a Halloween setting, but it doesn’t really do a whole lot too besides that and actually saying like it’s a Halloween dance.
29:05
It doesn’t really have a lot of Halloween aesthetic to it.
There’s very little decorations.
It looks like it was shot in California in like July.
You know, it doesn’t really have much going for it in that like kind of aesthetic.
So they had to, I don’t know, like a pumpkin headed killer is an easy way to say like, look, it’s Halloween.
29:26
There’s a pumpkin head walking around.
I think it was a lazy way to do it, to be honest with you.
But at the same time, like I appreciate the Halloween aesthetic even though I don’t think that the film does a great job of selling it.
Like yet again, there’s like if you look, there’s like 2 decorations in the whole movie.
29:45
I think they’re like on the front of the Mary’s like front door at one, one shot of it that you see and and that’s it.
But I’m also a stickler for Halloween decorations on home and Halloween movies.
If you know.
30:01
So you’ve missed an opportunity if you don’t include them.
So, But yeah, the the whole idea of the lawnmower killer coming back thirteen years later and and the film follows Joe Don Baker’s character, Dick Dick Harbinger, which is a great name.
30:18
Not just a great.
Part, but the Harbins is the part.
Well, because he’s constantly, you know, out there, you know everyone.
Boy who cried wolf like the lawnmower killer’s coming back.
He’s coming back.
I know it.
It’s great because this guy, this, he plays like supposed to be a hard boiled detective type character and it’s just over the top ridiculous and how he’s shown in pretty much every sequence.
30:46
He’s like a disheveled looking man.
You know, I love the opening scene when we meet him and he’s fucking getting ready for work and he’s got his briefcase, his valise that he opens up and like throws everything into.
And then he’s also pouring coffee into the police at the same time, just like doing all of it.
31:01
There’s like a doughnut box on his wall that he just grabs A doughnut from when he comes down the stairs.
It’s all great because it’s like.
And I say the papers have like failed, you know, like killer, you know, on his walls everywhere, you know.
It’s it’s great, like physical and just like visual comedy that that has.
31:21
And I really, really like that first part where we first meet him because it, I think it’s probably one of the funniest moments that we see.
He, you know, he doesn’t even have to say anything.
You just kind of get all the comedy from just watching him, which is great.
And but I think that he’s a a fun character to follow throughout because he’s probably, you know, arguably the best part of Wacko.
31:42
Easily, yeah.
I mean, I don’t, I think, and you, you said it off the show, but I do agree with you.
He’s probably the only reason that you stay tuned in.
You know, if the film didn’t have him.
32:00
Yeah, I don’t.
I don’t know if it would have been as funny or as entertaining as it ends up being.
And that’s saying something too, because like we talked about with Student Bodies, I do feel like Wacko starts off kind of strong and fizzles out towards the end.
32:18
It’s hard to sustain this type of comedy which is in and I would say is it’s a different type of comedy from student bodies.
While they have a similar aesthetic and ideas, the way that they are presenting the the jokes a little bit different.
32:33
I think Wacko’s a little bit more rapid fire and how many jokes it’s just kind of like throwing at the audience all the time, whether they be physical gags or in the kind of like dialogue type gags.
I feel like it’s even more chaotic and wacko and sometimes random where it just kind of comes out of nowhere.
32:53
And I feel like it’s really hard to sustain that for a 90 minute movie.
You know, at a certain point the audience is kind of like, all right, enough’s enough.
You know, I suspended my disability for too long.
There’s not enough plot to carry it forward because you can only, you know, if you’re rapid firing jokes like that, they got to hit more than they, you know, don’t.
33:16
And if they, you know, aren’t hitting, then you’re not going to be engaged.
Yeah.
How do you feel about that?
Do you think they hit more than they donor?
It’s like just like suing bodies.
It’s 5050.
There’s like some stuff that’s, again, a lot of the stuff is with Joe Don Baker.
33:32
Like the whole like, let me tell you how this happened.
He’s driving in the car and he’s like, This is why I’m so fucking crazy.
And he’s like, no, I’m just kidding.
That’s not what happened.
Here’s what really happened.
And it’s him.
Like I was working a sting with a prostitute and he’s getting the shit.
He’s like, that’s not what happened.
33:48
This is what happened.
You know, I was a cop and I was, I, I had to be dressed as a clown.
I didn’t want to be.
I wanted a fucking kangaroo suit.
I had to, you know, like stuff like, that’s funny.
I don’t get the mowing the lawn bit.
34:06
The the hey, dad’s a pedophile on my on his own daughter.
His own daughter.
And like, oh, I’m just mowing the lawn.
I’m just mowing the lawn.
I.
Yeah, I mean, it’s a very long joke to pay off at the end, but like, it’s just, you know, silly.
34:24
Yeah, a lot like, again, like the whole, like having a character named Norman Bates.
I mean, you know, basically, you know, be Norman Bates.
That’s like again, we’re still a couple of years from psycho 2 and priests.
34:40
I don’t know how why they got put in there.
Harry Palms, the vice principal.
That was like a good thing.
Like I’m the vice principal.
I know what vice is like, you know, he’s you know, and like obviously in a very old timey, you know, masturbatory joke.
34:59
Harry Palm teams, you know, I don’t know people know that because I don’t think anyone’s going around stadium, you know, if you keep touching.
Yourself, I feel like that’s probably an older thing that most people don’t really recognize anymore.
But yeah, I mean it works.
I I definitely, I got the the reference for sure.
35:17
One thing I think too is interesting is how many references like we talked about that, you know, they’re not slasher related, but they’re here all the same.
Like The Exorcist is in here for one random throwaway joke where it’s just like Andrew Dice Clay’s character.
35:34
Who, Yes, that is the Andrew Dice Clay.
He goes by Andrew Clay in this movie, but that’s Andrew Dice Clay.
Tony Shalong.
Tony Shlongini, you can call me Shlong.
You can call me Tony, but never call me Anthony.
You know, to the two of John Travolta characters wrapped up into.
35:54
One you know.
Danny, you know Danny Zuko from Greece and you know from Saturday Night Fever.
Definitely, like, especially when they come down the stairs and like, you know, doing that.
Part was funny.
Like like dude, like the like, you know, that was funny.
36:12
It is like sad to see because like, you know, I mean like he wasn’t doing, I don’t think stand up at the time, but like we would have missed the opportunity of him going.
Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffel whoa, eating her curds and bullshit.
36:29
Hey.
I like him enough in this movie.
I think he’s pretty good.
You know I.
Was just say he is all just boner jokes.
He wear super dudes like.
It’s stupid, but it’s still pretty damn funny, especially when he’s.
Just.
36:45
Like and then there’s just they just play the spring sound effect.
The OR When the fuck?
Which is funny too.
Gets knocked over and he’s at dinner.
I was going to say the funny part was like when Rosie’s like I’m not wearing any panties, He’s like doing like the and then marry the virgins up there.
37:05
Like, no, don’t feel weird and creeped out by that.
It’s so she’s just like that.
Most girls don’t wear their panties.
But I do see bulls are screwing up and he’s still like because again, like we’ll go.
You don’t know you like.
It’s great, I do, but.
37:25
I just love in like these films how they make everybody be like a like they’re constantly running around with like a fucking boner in their pants.
They just need to run to the bathroom and like just stand off and like stand and angrily masturbate like a fucking chimp.
37:41
Like, you know, that’s.
Not I, that’s not what I do.
I just take a family swatter and just get down.
Get down till it’s till it’s gone back down.
What was I saying?
I was talking about oh, yeah, The exorcist, Tony just randomly at one point in the cafeteria, just like they’re like, oh, no, the pea soup.
38:01
And then he just spins his head around and spits out pea soup.
And it’s like really random throwaway joke to just get the exorcist in here.
I don’t know if it’s like, I’ll just say like thing.
I’ll just say the omen was Damien.
Like they’re Mary’s little brothers.
38:16
Damien, you.
Know, I mean, what do you think about it?
It is a little bit weird because it’s like this film is so very clear parodying the slasher formula, but at the same time all the jokes that it makes at the expense of other horror movies are all not within the formula.
38:31
So it’s it’s, I don’t know, it’s just weird.
It’s it’s almost, it doesn’t necessarily jive that well in, in my opinion, But you know, I, I do like some of the the western known ones like Doctor Moreau coming in and, you know, basically turning the, the football team into teen Wolf, but also, you know, the island of Doctor Moreau.
38:55
I think that’s kind of a cool idea, you know, to play off of lesser known, you know, horror icon of Doctor Moreau.
It’s kind of weird and and different.
So I kind of like that.
Now the other thing too is, you know, this movie incorporate loves to incorporate like, Oh, there’s a crazed maniac running around that, you know, just a bald guy that gets out of out of the local sanitarium.
39:22
Which is great too lucky when like when he breaks out and then like show up and Joe Don Baker’s like there’s money to escape and be like, how do you know?
And he’s like there’s a roof from the window and it’s a one story.
Like like shit like that.
39:41
It’s like stupid, but like funny like that works like that kind of stuff.
And like, you know, it’s like, but like.
Or like, you know, the other thing that worked for me is Joe Don Baker just going around and taste testing everything.
Like he does it on a window.
So he’s like dust just or like, you know, there’s there’s blood on the ground.
39:58
It looks like blood and he tastes it.
Ketchup pulls out a hot dog, buns from his briefcase and dips it in.
He’s like those those moments are great.
I do think that those are really funny.
And you know, again, like we talked about, there are a lot of misses in this movie where it’s just kind of like, you know, if it was a stand up comedy, it would you probably just be silenced in some some scenarios, but you know, in others it does work really well.
40:25
What do you think about the so it’s very similar to student bodies.
The inclusion of like the the text, that one point where it’s like this is going to be a dream sequence.
You you take your drink and food intermission now because it’s not going to add anything to the plot.
You know, they they kind of get sneaked at in with like the student bodies references.
40:44
So yeah, that’s fine.
I mean, like like I said, I just think it’s the biggest problem is like they with the film is the fact that it’s a billion jokes a minute and it like it doesn’t stick enough.
41:01
Yeah.
And like the 5th, the film was like an hour long.
I think it’d be like a nice fun movie, like, you know, but again, like, there’s not enough here to carry this film for almost 90 minutes.
Yeah, I think like, you know, like the the whole driver’s Ed sequence was like kind of out of control.
41:20
It kind of goes off the rails, quite literally.
Lasted like 8 minutes and it should have been like a 3 minute thing.
Yeah.
I mean, it’s a funny idea, like, you know, hot rods, they’re driving around and shit.
But you know, which is funny too because when they jump in the car, like the explosion and stuff, you can totally see in the jump no one’s in the car yet.
41:44
Maybe the it’s probably just the stunt driver ducked down, but there’s no one in there even though like, you know.
Yeah.
And I think too, especially after student body bodies.
And then this is like, not so much being held against this film when I’m talking about it, but I think just the idea of just, I’m, I’m an old man now.
42:04
So this whole like, you know, just horny teens sitting around the high school, you know, just everyone’s making out and shit.
And like, wow, look at all that isn’t isn’t that bad that their hormones are up.
It’s like, I like, I couldn’t care less.
42:20
Like he’s like about that kind of crap.
Like I’m so disconnected from, you know, yeah, you know, running around to being a hormonal teen.
Yeah, yeah.
It’s like, you know, like I get it on principle, but the fact that like because of that, because it’s the same thing with student bias, that means half the jokes are just oh wow, the boobies.
42:44
Oh, white creamy 5.
It’s true, yeah.
Yeah, it’s.
And I think that’s, you know, part of the problem too, is the whole proliferation of sex comedies at the time, which we’re doing a lot of that.
43:00
And pretty much just that, you know, it’s basically just like, how much mileage can we get out of the joke that teens are horny and they really love to have sex.
You know, it’s like very limited scope there.
And not only that, like most of the time, the teens that you had were like 35 years old, so.
43:21
You’re not, fool, You’re not.
Fooling, right, Exactly, exactly.
They probably got done with the scene and like, EW, cooties, like, I’m having hot flashes.
I’m in menopause like.
About any industry.
But yeah, I think I think you’re right.
43:36
The film has so much rapid fire that later on it feels very exhausting.
And it actually even feels like maybe the movie’s exhausted with itself after a while.
Towards the end of the film, when you start to get like the reveal of the the lawnmower killer, it’s almost like everybody kind of was just like, we don’t really care about who the killer is.
44:02
So like, I guess we need to show who it is.
And it was kind of the same, you know, same issue with student bodies, I think maybe to even further extent and wacko because at the end of the day, it ends up not being any.
Like, there’s no real reveal of who is the lawnmower killer because for the most part, there is no lawnmower killer, as the film kind of makes known later on that, you know, the extent of the lawnmower killer only comes from Jodon Baker’s character, who is revealed to be the lawnmower killer at the end and has only killed teens at the prom.
44:35
Because he was trying to make it look like he wasn’t nuts thinking that the lawnmower killer was coming back 13 years later.
And so and that that that it could happen, not that he was the original, because they show at the end the goofy guy.
I’m a little armed killer, but I’ve, you know, redeemed And he’s like, I just wanted to show everyone that, you know, that it could happen.
44:57
We should take what I’m saying see seriously, which is a funny idea because again, the whole Dick harbinger thing, that’s great.
Like that’s like a great, like, you know, little funny thing there.
Yeah, it just seems like at the end, the film kind of treats that reveal even like with a tired, you know, sort of like here it is like this is what we’ve got.
45:17
And it’s it’s unfortunate because I do kind of like the idea of, you know, Dick Harbinger being this guy who’s like, I needed to go to this extent to show you that it could actually happen.
So I had to make it happen because, you know, it’s kind of a it’s, it’s a nice idea, but.
The best part of that whole scene is when the guy that broke out of the asylum is like talking and he’s like, man, this has been the worst 13 like worst day of my life after being locked up for 13 years.
45:47
How bad is it?
Well, the lawn mower killers come back.
My date’s been killed and something else in the year like the him point out and you hear the rim shot like she’s like, you know, like.
Right.
Yeah, because he’s doing like the whole comedy.
46:03
Bit like, yeah, like, like classic, like stand up.
Bit like, oh that was just making me chuckle because it’s so.
Like over the top.
I also like how don’t you like how EG daily is She’s feeling stalked by him and then all of a sudden he just flashes her with his like trench coat and she’s like, oh, do you want to be my prom?
46:24
I always knew EG Daily was a was a size queen.
That’s why she would play Tommy Pickles.
That’s right.
That’s right.
Yeah, unfortunately she doesn’t get much of AA role in this movie, but couple, couple of key scenes here.
46:42
And again, like I said, I can’t believe you didn’t recognize her from Dutch.
She looks pretty much the same as in.
I don’t even don’t even know what movie you’re talking you’ve.
Conveniently forgotten it.
All right, let’s see.
What else?
What else?
What else did we talk about that you wanted to get in here?
47:02
What about, how about the guy Zeke, the janitor that keeps popping up here and there?
And they’ll be like, aw, yeah, D.
Like Earth’s Zeke, basically the same janitor character from fucking even bodies.
47:19
I know, I know.
It’s weird.
It’s.
Strangely.
Similar wacko isn’t a lot of ways to that I find it fun.
Yeah, he doesn’t like, have enough of a role.
And again, like, I wasn’t like throughout this film guessing at all like.
47:34
Right.
I was, you know, checked out on that part.
I was.
Did you notice that in this movie, Tony Shlongini has an RC Cola?
We were just talking.
Yeah, there’s all quite.
There was quite a few of them like in here, like you know, he had those nice old school pull tab RC colas.
47:58
Whoa, dice clay.
Little bit better than drinking that RC Cola I know.
We were just talking about the the RC Cola and how it doesn’t pop up a whole lot.
You know, it’s not like you go to a restaurant and they’re like, you want RC Cola and we don’t have Pepsi or Coke.
48:17
We got RC Cola.
But in this film they got it here, so.
Owned 1 of Keurig Dr. Pepper’s wonderful brands.
Yeah.
Isn’t that great?
Don’t you want to think of that?
48:33
Keurig.
Dr. Pepper?
Keurig.
Yeah.
What a fucking time to be.
Alive.
Jesus Christ.
That’s right.
All right.
Anything else you want to talk about with Wacko?
What do you what do you think about I I talked about a little bit.
What do you think about the Halloween aesthetic?
48:50
It’s enough.
It’s it’s you can say Halloween pumpkin party enough prom party enough times before and it just makes it more Halloweeny then obviously Halloween itself because Halloween didn’t have any leaves.
49:07
It’s true, yeah.
So you’d say it’s it’s a fun enough movie to watch for Halloween then?
Yeah, why not?
Yeah.
Give it a go.
I think so too.
I mean, even though I don’t think it has enough Halloween stuff in it, but here’s.
But here’s the thing, I don’t think everything that you watch for Halloween has to be also true.
49:26
It’s super Halloween because again, that’s the case and all you’re doing is watching Rob Zombies Halloween and you don’t want that.
I agree.
All right, so we got to give Wacko braiding on a scale of a zero to 10 terrifying images that will scar you for the rest of your life, What would you give Wacko?
49:52
And give it a 5 1/2 out of 10.
It’s not bad.
It’s watchable.
Last part of like 10 minutes I had to watch in like 1 1/2 speed.
Just get through it.
But I mean, like, I think it’s like in some ways it’s a little bit better than student bodies, but I think student bodies overall proves to be like a funnier movie just because the scope is smaller and the parody sticks to being smaller.
50:23
Wackos does have some really good moments.
Again, Joe Don Baker’s great, fucking hilarious.
The reason why you should just film out to begin with.
You know, Andrew Dice Clay and like Tony Swanini and you know, George Kennedy is doctor great.
50:38
And like they are like all funny too.
But I think overall the style and pace of the film, again, it’s a million jokes a minute.
They’re you know, you may be like depending on like your taste, like if you couple of bad jokes that don’t land, you might be able to forget them and move on.
50:57
By the it’s definitely a film of it’s time.
It’s something I think that he’s definitely would watch this and go out.
This is a late 70s, early 80s film with how, like, the style of humor, but it’s fine enough.
51:16
Like, I don’t, I’m glad I watched it.
And, you know, something you just, you know, new to add on to the list, you know, support Joe Don Baker’s work.
But I mean, it’s not something I’d probably ever really go back and visit to.
It just doesn’t have the staying power.
51:33
So yeah, five and a half a ton.
It’d be a very mild, very mild recommendation.
I’d give it a six out of 10.
I think it’s pretty.
It’s it’s like a fun movie to watch.
I think that it definitely starts out a little bit stronger than it ends with.
51:51
I think that over time, it just stretched thin.
And it was the same complaint that we had for student bodies as well, where it’s just really hard to keep the the pacing and the attention span of something that is so irreverent that again, like, you know, you’re trying to, you’re trying to keep the viewer invested in a plot that you even you realize does not really matter.
52:16
You know, it’s like, you know, there’s no real reason to continue.
And and so the problem with that is that you need to have the jokes continuously working in order to keep the viewer invested because the plot is really thin and and not supposed to be the main idea.
52:32
And I feel like wacko just kind of, you know it.
It definitely has jokes that work really well, but not enough of them.
It’s not, it definitely is not, as you know, effective later on in the movie as you’ve kind of seen a lot of the same jokes fly by.
52:50
And again, wacko reuses a lot of things too.
So it, you know, you could call that a recurring motif if you want to.
But what it ends up being is it kind of wears the joke then after a while to the point where again, like you mentioned with the George Kennedy inclusion at the end of the movie, where it’s kind of like a, I don’t need to say that the outro is sort of like a throwaway.
53:13
It’s it’s not really that funny.
It’s just kind of like, you know, like an inclusion.
They didn’t know how to end that joke.
So they just kind of threw something in there.
I feel like, you know, a lot of it wears thin and, and the the whole idea is sort of tired by the end of the movie.
53:30
With that said, you know, it, it works.
There definitely scenes I would have cut some obviously, but there are definitely scenes that work better.
I think there are some legitimately funny jokes here.
And you know, of course, we as we mentioned, Joe Don Baker, probably the best part of the movie, delivers a great, you know, portrayal of a really dishevelled detective dude who ends up being, you know, being the the the whole reason why they’re scared in the 1st place and wacko.
53:59
So I think it works pretty well.
But otherwise, you know, it’s not something that I probably would recommend to a lot of people.
You have to be a really specific person and enjoy a specific brand of humor to really like Wacko.
54:16
But if you are like part of that group, I think it could be a pretty fun Halloween watch.
As we said, like with student bodies.
Similarly, if you put it on the background, people are kind of watching and laughing and cracking jokes at at the same time.
Think it could be interesting to watch for Halloween.
So I’ll give it a six out of 10.
54:33
I like it enough.
But again, like Martin said, it’s hard to give a recommendation to because I, I don’t think that it is good enough to really recommend to most people, just a specific, you know, subset of people.
All right, so that’s our episode on Wacko and we are almost done with ha ha Halloween at this point.
54:56
We have one more episode left.
You know what I would really like to do 2 episodes.
There’s another movie that I really want, would like to get in that we just saw was even out.
I didn’t even know it until I saw on Facebook of all things the other day, like an advertisement for it.
55:15
And I was like, what?
That movie exists and it’s out this year.
It’s called Haul Out the Halloween and it is a, I’m going to say sequel.
I don’t really know but it’s a it’s a sequel ish type thing to the Lacey Schubert Christmas movies Haul out haul.
55:38
Out.
Haul out the hall.
It’s really hard to say.
Haul out the Holly I.
Think, well, because you’re putting, because you put, you’re putting the emphasis on it’s my accent.
It’s a yeah, you have like a haul out.
The.
Holly, it’s just haul out the Holly.
You’re like haul out, you know?
55:57
Early, but yes, I believe they they did.
I think there was another movie besides haul out the Holly.
I think they didn’t a sequel to that one and now they’ve done haul out the Halloween that’s out the Halloween.
56:14
See, that’s where you, you’re putting the like there’s an H in there.
We can’t.
There’s an.
Episode because I can’t say it haul out the Halloween and which I was like, wow, what where did this come from that really, you know, I’m subscribed to the Lacey Chabert listserv so I don’t understand.
56:33
You mean that I am too though the picture of like this movie, like her beau is dressed as a sailor and her as a nurse.
It looks like a porno like, you know, like a Hallmark porno.
56:48
Like we keep the clothes on and we do just image.
That’s right.
That’s right.
Yeah, caught me by surprise.
But if, you know, if we do get a chance, maybe we’ll try to do that one too.
But but that’s not the goal for the next episode of Ha Ha Halloween.
57:05
It’s it’s a different.
I just, and it’s going to be fun.
I just want them to make enough Lacey Chabert fucking Halloween movies so we can Oh my God, famous cul-de-sac every Scream spooky makeover.
57:25
I’m watching the IMDb trailer for it right now.
That’s right.
Oh my God, this guy’s a fucking goof.
Why would she waste her time with him?
But then again, they’re Mormons in this because they’re in Utah, so that’s why it’s so wholesomely awful.
That’s true.
57:43
I would like to try to do that at some point.
That’d be a fun one.
I’m sure it is so.
But no, that’s that’s not the next episode.
The next episode will be fun, promise.
It’s going to be a it’s going to be a very recognizable horror.
57:59
Comedy.
I know what it is.
What’s that?
Cowboy Bebop The movie?
Yeah.
That’s right, the Halloween, Halloween set, Cowboy Bebop movie.
That’s right.
Great.
Movie if you haven’t.
Watched it and it’s true.
58:14
That’s true.
Well, so you’ll want to tune in for our last episode of Ha Ha Halloween and that’ll bridge us into we’ll, we’ll probably do 1 Thanksgiving episode and then move right into our Christmas stuff.
So should be fun.
58:31
You’ll want to subscribe, subscribe to us on basically any podcast app that you can think of.
We’re on Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, our home base is Spotify.
Trying to get off Spotify.
Really would like to get off Spotify.
Joe Rogan’s just eating too much and no.
58:47
Rogan and the ice ads that might be peppered in through our our podcast somewhere.
Is there really.
Yeah, there there are.
And yeah.
So trying to get off Spotify.
The problem is, is like we, we make as we, we lose money on the podcast all the time because of all the beer that we buy.
59:07
We, we don’t make any money.
So like Spotify’s free I I’ve been trying to find other free avenues of of podcasts.
There’s never.
Put put everything on blue.
Sky that’s yeah, there’s not any there’s not like a lot of great alternatives that are like free.
59:24
So but I’ll keep looking.
A cast is one that I’ve been looking at, but that inserts ads as well to into your podcast in random places.
So like, I could be talking, Oh, you got a, you got an ad for purple sleep pillows or whatever.
59:40
I don’t.
Hold on, hold on, why don’t you dare?
Bad talk, Purple Mattress.
I know right with the.
Tim and Tim and Eric were selling them like a decade ago.
OK, the purple.
Boys.
But but yeah, so, so definitely though we’ve been trying to, I’ve been trying to look to get off Spotify.
59:55
There’s other things I would like to do as well.
I would definitely like to spruce up cold splatation and give us an actual page again.
To, you know, actually post updates to that because having a website presence is nice.
You know, again, I have to rely on like Facebook and blue Sky, which really gets us nowhere.
1:00:12
So I’m hoping to do that at some point, get that fixed up so that we can have.
It well because we don’t we don’t do click bait stuff that’s.
True.
I just we.
We.
We don’t do.
We don’t do.
We don’t do.
You would never.
They watch this movie, never guess what they saw.
1:00:30
Right.
I record it and I throw it up and that’s it.
I kind of like just let it do its thing.
If it gets listens, it gets listens.
If it doesn’t, we had fun.
So basically so and we have Evergreen content as well.
So that’s the nice thing about podcast is that you can go back and listen to any of our episodes at any time and you’ll still have a lot of fun guaranteed.
1:00:53
Or your money back because you didn’t pay so.
Well, you know what, you should put some more money into it because it’s my birthday yesterday.
That’s right.
Yeah.
So everybody you know, the two cents you would chip in like make it 4.
Cents.
There you go.
There you go.
OK.
All out the Halloween we got, we’re going to have to subscribe to Hallmark for that.
1:01:13
Yeah, that’s right.
You know what?
Maybe one of these days we’ll go like the Obscurus loop around and we’ll start doing just like Murder She Wrote episode reviews and Baywatch, you know?
Yep, that’d be great, you know?
All right, so again.
1:01:29
Maybe, maybe, maybe see if we can get back on that guy with the glasses, you know, see if Doug Walker’s taking any new people and be like, hey, you.
Know so yeah, subscribe to us, leave us a nice review on any app that you listen to.
I’m sure we’re on it.
1:01:46
We’re also on Facebook and blue sky.
You can find us on there Blood and Black run podcasts and you know, give us a like or tweet us or whatever you do on there.
We also have an e-mail address, [email protected] where you can write to us.
Let us know what you like, which you don’t like, what movies you want us to cover and we’ll take that into consideration.
1:02:01
And you can donate to us on our Patreon or Spotify pages.
Anything you donate, go back towards beer and apparently trying to find a different host.
So thanks in advance for that.
You’re going away.
What’s that?
You’re going away.
No, a different host for the podcast.
1:02:17
Not me, not not the main host.
I’m not going anywhere.
So I’m, I’m going away, yeah.
We’ve been doing this for what, like 13 years now?
I guess we’re not going anywhere.
So probably one of the longest running podcasts besides like Marin and Joe Rogan that’s out there.
1:02:34
Whoa, Marin just retired.
I know he did.
I know we’re going to we’re going to beat him here or something, right?
You know, Yeah.
Sam Cedar is a little sad that.
Yeah, had.
Obama on 1st last.
Episode it is interesting though, because podcasts come and go and like, while I would not say we are popular by any means, we’ve been here for a long time We’re we’re you know more for.
1:02:58
COVID we’d have we’d be up to over 4. 100 episodes we’re we’re podcasting and recording into the ether, but we still have 300 and something episodes over 13 years.
So it’s a pretty good run all things considered.
At least if no one else listens, I’m leaving this for my children to listen to later on.
1:03:17
They can go back and listen to how their dad felt about a random film movie and and the boobs that were in it.
Like, you know, under under siege.
What did he think about the the busty lady in Under siege?
I’m going to go.
God, you know what, that’s actually a good reference right?
1:03:36
I almost forgot about Under Siege.
But yeah, the porn star porn star 90s torpedoes that were part of under.
Siege and Steven Seagal non acting.
They had to lock him in a closet for half the movie to make it watch Gary Busey.
1:03:56
That’s right, it was Gary Busey, right?
Yeah, yeah, Gary, BC.
That’s right.
Yep.
All right.
Well, thanks for listening to Rep.
So hope you enjoyed.
Hope you’re having a good Halloween season so far, TuneIn next week because we’ll be back for our last episode of Ha Ha Halloween until and until then.
1:04:14
Chip in some money so Ryan can buy Battlefield 6 and take it.
