We walked in AM the previous seven. Podcasts are always right and you schedule Ellie may ask. Nick and I often times. Talked about films. Music. Television basically art that we love and have been influenced guy and we love to discuss it with you the listener. But one of the things always comes up is nick and Iron Man at a certain age and one good show all your mono substance. We are men at a certain age and sometimes that things that we think that we remember you know. An AA they have a saying the use euphoric recall JFC this is the longest preamble I've ever heard hey you know what I'm kind of pop culture music saw deviant bar. They don't age well so we're trying to figure out does it hold up. Something's art timeless. Classic films the best of our music and arts did in two hours further. And oh wow. Look sometimes. Here's Eric Berry coming to things that you remembers being awesome. So. Who decides what stands the test of time that what fails these guys who have Zynga it does it work does it hold. With Betty and nick. OK so this. Is a Halloween edition leading up to the Halloween festivities we're gonna concentrate on. All things Halloween not the actual movie about this case it's going to be to actually now in the Halloween themed art right but we'll start with the iconic Halloween. 1978. John Carpenter classic night and then I'm out not that 2007 and job zombie action now. The original what I say. Is the scariest movie of all time money list. Seen this disability comes would do not watch alone by yourself. This gets into the very premise of this this doesn't hold up so nick and I watched it last night. Let's let's start right here. Is red missile that. No means out of this. He's got one job. The theme song alone. Fantastic one of the greatest teams on exactly so atmosphere crickets minimalism more than holds cannot wait to go see John Carpenter was moving things like a couple weeks but this theme song is incredible however and it's creepy the opening scene. Just thought pumpkin turning towards you amazing in a tie last void with this music planes that are a martyr like okay creeped out. Might be the best thing about the movie might be. Which is a problem but let's start would doesn't hold and what doesn't hold up. Are a lot of the performances. It's definitely a little dated its of its time which is finds a little seventies metric so one of the things a lot about the movies watching the seventies fashion and then different cars in the posters on the wall and all that mind you was made for very little money. Understood but. John covers pretty good director and he got some pretty bad performances in this thing that I didn't realize in looking back until I watched last night I didn't remember how bad. Some of the reforms as were okay like. For example OK the girl who plays lorries best friend in. Here's her. Going to meet her boyfriend Paul and remember this. Seemed just painful and. You. He moved well. And. Had so little hokey. But can we also. Put this out first of all. The shock value there's actually a number two. The introduction of the inception that the inception horn right there that's true candidate senator Orrin 35 years early which sort of plays into. The elements John Carpenter jus like the team and also I would like to offer this in retaliation you say bad performance there yes. How about the opening scene of the movie were John Carpenter cinematic genius that he was when he was pitch and nothing but fastballs them. The opening scene. It's Michael Myers POV. A little cat walking out today how early in the though what are you talk a master at so many of the trial I. Eyes forty years ago that was genius. That he put the mask over his face and you get this. Shops are up with a pair of scissors. On its Prudhoe. You do not expect this at all it's a nice slow burn takes it to be happy to get hit the tension builds advocates of grizzly Adams spurred. Show good. And yeah amid and then. There's a steady cam shot between. Lori in this in this Nancy keys is her name. Who plays her best friend. Nancy. And she and the dialogue is just really stiffened dated check this out. Glory DN. Let's take you out okay. Standing. Lori it's and I. Scratch and never go. Let's have a small fortune stance babysit so it's I think I have to Smart. So I don't think a high school way. You must have a smile while there's this thing and there's some wooden dialogue some flat performances Isaac Hayes still don't know what to do. Well it's dinner slots field here is examining all of the Andes. ISL and any crap about Brad Pitt building here I am I doing what we were tasked to do tonight doesn't hold up the talking Amanda. All right well then how often this is an excellent performance somebody who was in the John Carpenter players if you will we as he used. Kurt Russell a number times and also love Donald pleasant and of course is the president and escape from New York but gave a great all time horror movie performance. As doctor Loomis who begins describing. The horror of knowing this twisted child. Commit the murder in the beginning and ultimately becomes one of the great first horror movie serial killers. That this. Six year old child in this. Learn pay you emotion us face it. The blackest eyes. All the deaths. I spent eight years trying to reach him. And then another seven track people not to have because I realized what was living behind that most guys whose opinions and we. Great performance great. Oh great great great great what great arguments was almost as scary as miners silo but analysts read he feels this whole movie is the dread we feel. It is only magnified whatever this six foot six. Giant. Mechanics suited white mask wearing. Terror machine that can nine guys know about that mask Brian Williams yes yes yeah. But first ten minutes he's a little hard to top the whole movie he's like rather. I Trojan duck. That's only the opponent to outpatient doctor precautions were stolen luggage and told somebody I taught everybody. Nobody in this Italian flag so you can get back to not get back on the telephone companies are legal walked out of him last night after the attacks against Ali probably. You know what I pick now I'm done now it does all of that you know what it's still one of the great heart movies of all time highs in all that and tells us that we read in this bit Matty ruins every now. Yeah I'm in my final judgment and what's your verdict I feel like most the movie Osborne say it doesn't hold up as I watched it. But the last ten minutes of that film. Make up for all the since all the bad acting everything that's wrong that adds data with a it holds up because that last ten minutes a closet it's the most frightening. When she's talking of the kids that run across the street it's it's it if so the whole thing up for all the it is charitably shot in the dark. Yeah I don't know what's governor and that's the whole thing plays with the whole idea of the boogie men in the fear of the dark in its atmosphere and then it's got such a great ending because. There is no happy ending right he falls to his death. Except he doesn't he's got to that it leaves everyone screaming here like dread continues this movie holes the blank up ago.
