| 0:00.0 | I hate it, but I love it. |
| 0:25.5 | I am Kat Angus and this is the podcast about all the pop culture you love and hate simultaneously. |
| 0:37.9 | Spooky Scary Movie Month continues this week with Flatliners, the 1990 version. |
| 0:42.8 | That's right. Not the 2017 version, I believe. That's one of the worst-reviewed movies of that year, |
| 0:48.6 | maybe any year. Embarrassed. Oh thank goodness we're doing the far better 1990 Flatliners. |
| 0:56.4 | Absolutely correct Kat. Absolutely correct to burn that turn of phrase. You are accurate. |
| 1:03.4 | Now this movie was also on our listener request suggestion list and I think it's come up a couple |
| 1:10.4 | of times and we thought let's toss it into Spooky Month. So we just want to read the lovely suggestion |
| 1:16.4 | that comes from Erica L. Smith. My suggestion is Flatliners directed by Joel Schumacher. |
| 1:21.9 | I love Keither Sutherland's and just a quick aside to say apologies in advance. You might know |
| 1:28.1 | from previous episodes that for whatever reason I can't say that name. So at one point or another |

| 1:36.4 | Keither Sutherland. I can't do it my love. I'm sorry I can't. I love Fred Blogs's intensity. |
| 1:42.0 | Julia Roberts of vulnerability and Kevin Bacon's glorious hair. I hate all of her plots sniveling. |
| 1:48.4 | William Baldwin's grossness indeed I think that could be said about Eddie and the Baldwin's. |
| 1:52.8 | Not even in the movie. Just like his statement. Yeah exactly. And the fact that the ending just |
| 1:59.5 | not just does not make any sense. All in all this movie is a fun dumb time equal parts spooky and |
| 2:05.8 | silly plus a tiny bit of Beth Grant and who doesn't love her. Correct. Correct. I mean a bit of a |
| 2:11.2 | bit of a bummer to be presented with Beth Grant at the beginning. And then immediately yanked away. |
| 2:15.6 | Unfair. Now you've seen this movie before. What are your thoughts? Yeah but not for a long time |
| 2:20.3 | to the point that I had completely misremembered which of the men was Julia Roberts. |
| 2:24.6 | Was the guy Julia Roberts was going to end up well. I thought she ended up with William Baldwin. |
