JoeHOST
Yep.
JoeHOST
But, you know, the VHS that I almost wore through was Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
JoeHOST
Not when I was a kid, but when I was a, a young, young lad, shall we say, and I only had a couple of different, uh, VHSs, and I had, I think I had The Phantom Menace-
AndyHOST

DonHOST
It is slightly better than The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Big Year, Suicide Kings, and Say Anything.
DonHOST
And it is slightly worse than Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Heart Eyes, and Goodnight Mommy.
JohnHOST
I think that's funny that it's the same level as Bo- uh, Bone Tomahawk.

Noel BrownHOST
I feel like I'm missing out, or at least I'm out of the loop in terms of the conversation.
Noel BrownHOST
But I have seen Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and other Vegas-centric movies, so I kind of get what it's about.
Noel BrownHOST
Casino, pretty much like that, right?
Ben BowlinHOST
Yeah.
ColeHOST
I, I, I've said I do.
ColeHOST
This one I don't mind because it's not necessarily like a nihil- It's not Fear and Loathing ending where it's like, it's just, oh, the bad guy wins.
ColeHOST
It's like, it leaves you on this mystery, and I think I really like that.
ColeHOST
'Cause, like, I feel like this movie still gives us clues.
JacobGUEST
Yeah, and this is, this is the other thing.
JacobGUEST
Johnny Depp, uh, when, when he did Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, he was like best friends with Hunter.
JacobGUEST
Like, he lived with Hunter for several months, like, to get his mannerisms down and just everything.
JacobGUEST
Like, they became very close friends.
JacobGUEST
But, uh, but yeah, I mean, Hunter Thompson, very clearly a creator of snuff films, all tied into the Franklin stuff.
JacobGUEST
You know, really terrible person.
Damien EcholsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Your friendship with him? Hunter and I, it was when I was, uh, researching Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, and I was living in his basement, you know.

And, uh, I happened upon this box as we were looking through the manuscript of Fear and Loathing.
