Episode #17 - The Exorcist
Special guests: Aaron and ScottGrant!
Jackie: “I walked into my office one day, and my boss had left two gigantic U-Haul boxes of CDs and DVDs. I took basically all of the DVDs except for the new Charlie’s Angels and the first season of Sex and the City. So that’s where the Exorcsit and several other movies in the stack came from.”
Oscar: “There aren’t many things in life that geniunely embarass me, but the fact that I haven’t seen ‘The Exorcist’ is pretty high on the list. I have friends from whom I’ve actively hidden this fact.”
Andy: “I’ve seen it!”
Aaron: This looks like Death of a Salesman
Andy: Arthur Miller’s “The Exorcist” (0:00)
Aaron: Brahm Stoker’s “The Exorcist.”
Andy: Ingmar Bergman’s “The Exorcist”
Aaron: John Hugh’s “The Exorcist.”
Andy: Michael Bay’s “The Exorcist.”
Jackie: So who’s seen this?
Andy: I have!
Jackie: Anyone else? Just Andy?
Aaron: That speaks pretty poorly on us. (0:05)
Aaron: That’s a pretty bad drawing of America. (0:06)
Stacey: The clock stopped!
Scott: Nope. That’s just his pacemaker. (0:07)
Oscar: Was that Brian’s mom from “Life of Brian?”
Aaron: “Dear diary, I almost had a run-in with another movie today.” (0:09)
Jackie: I think I’m getting this mixed up wih “Carrie.”
Aaron: I think I’m getting this mixed up with “Indiana Jones.” (0:11)
Aaron: Hey, who let the devil in?
Jackie: “Whooo let the deevil iin?? Who, whowhowhowho..” (0:12)
Andy: Aw, who let the Tubular Bells in here?
Oscar: Michael Myers is driving in the other direction. (0:16)
Aaron: Meanwhile, in “The Warriors.” (0:18)
Aaron: Well, it’s not in the future because these trashcans aren’t burning.
Stacey: That leaves the past and the present.
Aaron: No graffiti on the trains; must be the past. (0:20)
Stacey: She kinda looks like Mr. B Natural. (0:24)
Scott: Does she ever smoke that cigarette? That’s all I want to know. (0:28)
Aaron: Is the bed possessed?
Stacey: It’s like one of thosed beds that shakes when you put the quarter in.
Oscar: The magic fingers.
Scott: Maybe the bedbugs are possessed. (0:30)
Jackie: Must be a big fuckin’ rat.
Aaron: Must be an Allston rat. (0:30)
Aaron: It’s like that Talking Heads album, “stop shooting propane.”
Andy: I don’t know… I would have gone with “Burning Down the House.” (0:33)
Aaron: I was just about to make a Ritalin reference. (0:34)
We’re back to quiet observation.
Aaron: If I went to bed right now I could believe this is a “slice of life” movie.
Stacey: Oh yeah, this movie started in the desert. (0:47)
Scott: They thought the leeches were unhygenic, so they’re using this.
Jackie: What the fuck?
Aaron: If I were a doctor, this would be very interesting. (0:52)
Andy: He’s reminding me a lot of the doctor in Arrested Development. (0:55)
Aaron: God, I’d be flipping out if this was happening to me. (0:57)
Andy: You know, I wouldn’t be listening to the Goblins after that meeting. (0:58)
Aaron: “I wanna be sedated…”
Andy: I already did Teenage Lobotomy. (1:00)
Andy: Oscar, I heard you gasp. I don’t think I’ve ever heard that.
Aaron: Oh, at the stairwell scene?
Oscar: I don’t know if it was a gasp.
Andy: Oh, it was a gasp. (1:02)
Aaron: So, one of her alternative personalities has an accent?
Andy: That’s what you got out of that scene? (1:20)
Scott: Yes! That’s the first one she’s smoked all movie. (1:20)
The movie has possessed us. We’re all pretty quiet.
Scott: I like how that bruise is getting worse and not better. (1:35)
Andy: Ten bucks if you tattoo that on your stomach.
Oscar: I’d be lying if I said it hadn’t crossed my mind.
Stacey: I’d match that ten. (1:38)
Aaron: One of them’s a cow.
Scott: One of them’s a digeridoo.
Aaron: One of them’s an elephant. (1:44)
All: The power of Christ compells you! The power of Christ compells you! (1:51)
Aaron: They should just close those stairs. That might have happened here if it weren’t for those “stair closed” signs. (2:03)
Scott: Uhhh? (2:08)
Aaron: That was the first horror movie I’ve seen in a long time that didn’t have The Goblins going on in the back the whole time. (2:09)
Aaron: Kids were using bad language even before the MTV. 2 Tubular Bells
Andy: To echo what Aaron was beginning to say earlier, it’s very satisfying to see a horror movie done so gracefully. At least as graceful as The Exorcist can be. The Power of Christ Compells You.
Scott: I’m just happy for Oscar now. 1 Language, Forwards and Backwards
Stacey: This movie probably would have worked better if I had attended church on a regular basis as a child, or at any point in my life. 2 Dead Priests
Jackie: Creepy fuckin’ movie. 1 Vial of Holy Water
Oscar: After seeing so many of the films that followed, it’s good to see the movie thatYOUR MOTHER SUCKS COCKS IN HELL AGGGHGHGUGHGHASOI!!!!!!! 5 Hidden Devil Faces
