Be- as soon as they entered that garage, I was like, "Is, is this motherfucker gonna throw a basketball through this woman's head?" Because it's, it's looking a lot like what the goal of that scene is, is the one thing anyone can remember from Wes Craven's Deadly Friend, a movie I might remind our audience started out as a love story [laughs] and ended up a horror movie 'cause Warner Brothers is like, "What's this sappy shit? Where's the bloodshed?" And Wes Craven's like, "I don't know, maybe she can throw a basketball through somebody's head."
Gena RadcliffeHOST
29:56
[laughs] And he did.
Patrick HamiltonHOST
29:59
[laughs] "And now I'm gonna go to Universal, who will let me make some fucking horror movies that I do wanna make." Um, ig- I thought, "Oh, my God, they're gonna throw a basketball through this woman's head? Here it goes.

Jack DraperHOST
88:35
I mean, I haven't seen the entire...
Jack DraperHOST
88:38
I haven't seen Serpent and the Rainbow, and I haven't seen Deadly Friend, but I think that's, like, his most successful non-nightmare.
Jack DraperHOST
88:46
Deadly Blessing.
Jack DraperHOST
88:48
Yeah, a movie of the 80s, because, like, his 80s are so weird.

Jake BostonHOST
5:28
Deadly Friend, Wes Craven movie.

5:30

Jake BostonHOST
5:32
Day of the Dead has a 4K.
Brian SalisburyHOST
27:27
right, though, because it's one of five robot movies released in 86, like all of them in different genres.
Brian SalisburyHOST
27:32
You got this movie, Flight of the Navigator, Short Circuit, Deadly Friend, and God love him, you know, R.I.P. Peter Cullen, Transformers the movie was also released in 86.
Brian SalisburyHOST
27:43
Robots in disguise.
Brian SalisburyHOST
27:46
I tried to explain to a co-worker today about the Transformers movie and how absolutely fucking savage it is.
Catbus RussHOST
28:10
And if you can do too much cocaine in the 80s, you have a problem.
Catbus RussHOST
28:16
But that was probably the close, well, it wasn't the closest in success to Short Circuit, that would be Wes Craven's deadly friend.
Catbus RussHOST
28:28
With a young Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Christy Swanson, as the neighbor of a boy genius who has a robot he's built, which actually is, got a lot of personality, voiced by the guy who did Roger Rabbit.
Catbus RussHOST
28:52
And you can even catch, like,
Catbus RussHOST
31:24
And of course there is a group of teenagers having an orgy in a furniture store after hours.
Catbus RussHOST
31:31
So, I think this is one where I can actually, like there's no real objective, subjective element of it.
Catbus RussHOST
31:39
I think we can actually put this one to a vote, which of the four, Short Circuit, Maximum Overdrive, Deadly Friend, and Shopping Mall.
Catbus RussHOST
31:53
Which one is going to get your $5? I'm sorry? Okay.
