0:00.0 | Hello? Hello, Sydney. What is up, you spooky ass bitches? It's me, Sydney. And we're back with another episode of the Hello Sydney podcast, a podcast for horror lovers where we discuss any and all things horror. What's everybody been up to? How's your day? Did you do anything fun? I went to work, which is lame. But then I also just saw in a violent nature, which was honestly also kind of lame. And I'm very disappointed about it. And I'm almost disappointed in myself because like I feel like I was the target audience for this movie. And I'm just, like, I don't know why I didn't like it. |
0:39.3 | I know why I didn't like it. But like, I feel like I should have liked it. So I'm having some |
0:43.7 | weird, like, dissonance about it. Like, it just, I don't, it wasn't for me. It was very |
0:49.7 | anticlimactic. The thing that I did love about it, obviously, was the gore, because y'all know I'm a sucker |
0:54.9 | for some good blood and gore. And this movie had it. Like, there was one kill in this movie |
0:58.8 | that was so fucking gnarly. It, like, easily tops, not tops, like, not number one, but it's |
1:05.0 | easily at, like, the top of my list of favorite kills in a horror movie ever. Like, this was |
1:10.4 | so fucking visceral. It was |
1:13.2 | awesome. And I'm talking about the kill on top of the cliff. Obviously, if you've seen it, |
1:17.1 | which I'm sure if you have seen it, you already knew I was talking about that. But yeah, |
1:19.9 | overall, like kind of disappointing. I feel like a lot of people are either loving or hating |
1:23.6 | this. It's been very divisive in the horror community, but like I feel like I'm kind of |
1:27.6 | neutral. Like I'm just there. Like I give it, I think I just did a review and I gave it like a 5.5 |
1:33.2 | out of 10. Like it's just there. Like I won't go out of my way to watch it again. I also just think |
1:37.9 | like when they say things about horror movies like, oh, it's so disturbing. People are throwing up and people are having to leave the theater |
1:44.3 | and listen to these reactions of this audience that like got an early screening. |
1:48.5 | Like I feel like that automatically sets it up for failure because myself and I'm sure a lot of |
1:52.7 | you relate like as seasoned horror fans like our threshold for what's disturbing is much |
1:58.3 | higher than that of like the casual horror watching community |
2:01.7 | um like at least terrify or two like when i saw terrify or two i was like damn i understand |
2:08.2 | why people would be walking out during this scene whereas this movie i'm like where are people |
2:12.7 | getting sick like where are people walking out like i and again everybody has their own limits |
