Johnny WolfensteinHOST
I mean, unless we heard about it and I forgot.
Johnny WolfensteinHOST
But, uh, anyways, if you guys remember the film The Sadness we did a few years ago.
Michael Raven ShadowHOST
Mm-hmm.
Johnny WolfensteinHOST
And that was directed by Rob Jabbaz.
Johnny WolfensteinHOST
He might be Canadian.
Johnny WolfensteinHOST
I actually forget.
Johnny WolfensteinHOST
But, um, anyways, The Sadness was a really brutal film, and I remember when we talked about it we talked about how similar it was to Garth Ennis' comic Crossed.
Johnny WolfensteinHOST
Now, I haven't read Crossed, but Ravenchild, you're familiar with it, right?
TezHOST
And then the reviews.
TezHOST
So for tonight I have reviewed, or watched and I'll be reviewing, the latest found footage film to land on Shudder, Shudder exclusive called Infirmary.
TezHOST
A lot of buzz about that one.
TezHOST
And then I finally got around to watching Pinocchio Unstrung.
14 MINS LATER
TezHOST
Day two, bad remake.
TezHOST
I went with Tobe Hooper's, uh, Invaders from Mars.
TezHOST
It's a flipping terrible film.
TezHOST
It's just God awful.
BrysonHOST
Those are some Asian horror movies if you wanna check those out.
BrysonHOST
Um, The Sadness is also another good rec she recommends, dealing with a fun take on modern zombies.
MaddyHOST
Ooh.
MaddyHOST
We love a zombie film.
Colby Does HorrorHOST
I'm so excited.
Colby Does HorrorHOST
Dude, just kinda rounding out this whole All You Can Eat thing and, like, movies and, like, we've talked about so much, one thing I could not stop thinking while reading All You Can Eat is this reminds me of The Sadness.
Colby Does HorrorHOST
I don't know if you've watched that, Shane, but, like, just the compulsion and, like-
Shane McKenzieGUEST
Oh

Fat Sadness.
Colby Does HorrorHOST
No, but like, dude, like-

KellyHOST

KellyHOST
I got it from Vinegar Syndrome.
TaylorHOST
Mm-hmm.
KellyHOST
So it's a very well-made movie.
KellyHOST
And I'm actually very excited to see what that director goes on to do.
KellyHOST
But yeah, The Sadness, if you're looking to have a bad time, definitely check it out.
Kelly HarrassHOST

Kelly HarrassHOST

Kelly HarrassHOST

Kelly HarrassHOST

Kelly HarrassHOST
boy howdy that is the bleakest most gnarly movie I've ever seen it's kind of like a zombie movie but it's like a virus goes around and it attacks your brain and basically just makes you all id and so people just start doing whatever the worst possible thing they can think of is So it's brutal.
Kelly HarrassHOST
So it's a very well-made movie.
Kelly HarrassHOST
And I'm actually very excited to see what that director goes on to do.
Kelly HarrassHOST
But yeah, The Sadness, if you're looking to have a bad time, definitely check it out.
Ricky DavilaHOST
It is very, very intense as far as blood and gore and some of the things that transpire, and it is a loosely sort of zombie movie.
Ricky DavilaHOST
It's called The Sadness.
Ricky DavilaHOST
It was from, I believe, 2022 or '21.
Ricky DavilaHOST
It is about a, you know, as you would guess, a disease that kind of lets out throughout this country, and you really start to get everyone that turns into a zombified version of themselves, but they aren't mindless.
Ricky DavilaHOST
It is incredibly gory, bloody, and just very nihilistic.
Ricky DavilaHOST
It's very unsettling at times.
Ricky DavilaHOST
But if you want something that's really gonna mess you up, The Sadness is definitely one of them.
Ricky DavilaHOST
I know I've talked about The Sadness on a previous episode around this time last year, but it just sticks in your brain and really is a brutal movie to watch during this month and is really hard to find on streaming.

Kyle BishopHOST
This is...
Kyle BishopHOST
This is probably the second most gory zombie movie I've ever seen, only behind The Sadness.
Kyle BishopHOST
Because The Sadness has all that kind of modern day technique that makes the violence and the gore and the sadness much more realistic, whereas this film, it's clearly not real.
Kyle BishopHOST
So The Sadness is still winning as the goriest zombie movie ever made.
Kyle BishopHOST
But this one, I would say, is probably number two.
Kyle BishopHOST
Practical effects, lots of blood effects, and as with Night of the Living Dead with Romero, clearly the props that the zombies are using are real biological parts.
