What is up, you spooky bitches? We are back with another episode of the Hello Sydney podcast

0:05.0

here, a podcast for horror lovers where we discuss any and all things. Horror and it's me,

0:09.2

your girl, Sydney. Happy October, happy almost end of October. Happy one week till Halloween night, though.

0:16.7

I mean, it happened so fast, but we have had such a long, great, wonderful month. And I am so excited to talk about the movie that we're talking about today because we are getting back into movies that really just encompass the Halloween spirit. Our last couple were like, okay, there's like a Halloween party, but these next few really revolve around Halloween. And, oh, before I get

0:40.4

into that, if you guys can see my little Devil's Rejects poster I have here, if you're watching the

0:44.1

video episode, I got this when I went to the screening that Rob and Cherry were at, and these are signed.

0:50.3

Can you see that on the bottom? They're signed by Rob and Cherry. So this is like my favorite thing I've

0:55.9

ever owned and it's just sitting here because I have to get it framed and I also have to figure

0:59.6

it's fucking amazing. Anyway, so today we're talking about a movie that I believe is a quintessential

1:10.0

And I will admit, this is actually a franchise. I've never seen the second or third movie.

1:18.1

I think there's only three. There might be a fourth, but I'm pretty sure there's only three.

1:21.5

But I have never actually seen the second or third movie. But the first one is a yearly rewatch for me because, again, it just really

1:29.1

encompasses the Halloween spirit to me. It just has this 80s camp vibe to it. There are these

1:35.9

like 80s one liners in it that are absolutely fucking impeccable. And I feel like we've really

1:41.2

gotten away from that. Like these really just 80s one liners. And you'll see what I'm

1:46.3

talking about when I get into this because I am going to tell you all of the good ones. But Night of the

1:52.0

Demons came out in 1988 and its runtime is about an hour and 30 minutes, so it's pretty quick. It has a 6.1

1:59.4

on IMDB and a 56% on Rotten Tomatoes,

2:04.0

which the 6.1 on IMDB, honestly, pretty damn good for a horror movie, especially like an 80s

2:09.7

campy, really silly horror movie like this, because this one is, it's kind of out there at times.
