You said you wanted to bring up something specifically to me on the pod. Right now? Yeah, did you want to talk about it right now or do you want to wait? Give it a second. Let it marinate?

Sometimes you say things. I'm like, get your own food. Whoa, let's let her rip. Let's hear it. No, no. First of all, this week we're covering the movie Poltergeist 3. Oh yeah, that's important. We're covering Poltergeist 3, baby! 1988. Mm-hmm. PG-13. You talk so much about horror movies being PG-13. Hey, this one pulls it off, though. One of the few. It's a rarity, but this one pulls it off. And you picked this one. I did. You know why I picked this one? What? because as a kid growing up i guess i was privileged i had cable tv this is what we're going to bring up every day to angela's i was very cordy angela's i was very privileged you were we had cable tv and if anybody's aware of cable tv there's a network called wgn it's a chicago network but they always played it they played bulls games whatever all things chicago right Well, they also played movies, but they're always Chicago-themed movies. And guess what? Poltergeist 3 takes place in Chicago. And they played the living hell out of this movie. And I would catch this movie all the freaking time. Not that I even enjoyed it back in the day, but it was just on. And I think I watched it so much I got brainwashed to saying this movie's good. I enjoy this movie. It is forever in my zeitgeist. That it's good? Yeah. And plus, you can't go wrong with Tom Skerritt's mustache, dude. Come on. His caterpillar mustache? Yeah. How'd you feel about that? It's very caterpillar-y. I want one. It's very 80s. I want one. He still has it. Dude, Tom Skerritt, 90 years old. He deserves his flowers. He is an amazing guy. 90 years old. Oh, yeah. This is what, after this conversation that we had in my car about your WGN network. Yeah. This is what I went home and pondered on my thoughts. And I was like, I'm going to write a list for Richard. Because you had the nerve to call me uncultured in the car. Whoa, putting me on fucking blast? Yeah. Dude, I called you uncultured. You did. We were talking about horror movies. And you brought up your TV network, this gadget mustache dude. And how the hell. Stop it. Put respect on his name, goddammit, Tom Skerritt. And how the hell do you not know who Tom Skerritt is? I was like, let me remind you, I was born in 1989. Same as I. I didn't move. I lived in Mexico and grew up in Mexico until I was 11, so until 2000. And then when we moved here, I had some of my mom's cousins and other kids around my age. They introduced me to a lot of the culture and what was popular at the time. This was back in 2000. And Tom Skerritt should have been definitely in that rotation. Oh, 11, 13, 14-year-old kids. They weren't sitting there binging horror movies and Tom Skerritt and his alien. Hey, shout out. At least you know that. Fuck, dude. And so I was getting slowly introduced to the Lizzie McGuire show. That's so Raven. Fucking their brothers making fun of the girls for liking. I know. You're getting acquainted. You're getting acquainted to America. Call me on culture because I wasn't familiar with this. Yet uncultured with horror with horror and just things so i was like let me remind i wrote a list of things i was watching while you were watching your wg i remember i remember the comment you're 34 years old and you you say you love horror which isn't bad i'm not judging you but you like maybe i'm judging a little bit because we just had a conversation i'm like hey a little quiz as we were testing our mics. I'm like, where's Michael Myers from? And she's like, Crystal Lake. I'm like, Jesus effing Christ. Oh, so any listeners, please let us know where Michael Myers is from. I was watching horror. That's what I was getting to. But it was a different horror. It was Mexican and Latin American horror. So not your horror. So I went down because you called me on culture. I have to bring up some names of some freaking majestic Mexican and Latin American actresses and actors and some of the work that they were doing in the horror. And so that I can call you uncultured Mexican horror. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Majestic? What do you mean by majestic? Like, they're just majestic creatures, beautiful beings. They're just like how you hold to your standards, Tim Skerritt. These people are for me. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Tim Skerritt or Tom Skerritt? Tom. And I'm not saying the dude is the best actor since Slice Bread. You were drooling during the movie and you were like, mm, that mustache. It just reminds me of the 80s so much and my dad throughout the whole you met my dad right yeah yeah well he has like a goatee slash beard now but back in the 80s 90s that motherfucker was rocking a full-on we're italian mario mustache and that's what always reminds me tom scare it's mustache reminds me of my dad's mustache it's hilarious and it is majestic so And it is majestic. Anyways, continue with your Mexican cinematography. Mexican cinematography. To see if any of these names come to mind, Richard. And if not, why the hell don't you know these names? Oh my God, I will do my best. The first one, Roberto Mario Gomez Bolaños, most commonly known as Chespirito. Oh yeah, dude, he was in Saved by the Bell. Sure. He was an icon. He had a lot of, he didn't do horror, by the way. Tricked you. He did a lot of comedy stuff. Yeah, he did Saved by the Bell. No, he did a lot of comedy stuff. Chavo del Ocho, Chapulín Colorado. So for any listeners, Spanish speaking, they grew up watching any of this, don't know who I'm talking about. We have Maria Elena Velasco, also known as La India Maria. She did a lot of comedy. And she also had tapped a little bit into doing like comedy and horror. Yes, yes, this is all sounding familiar. Oh, yeah, totally. I was hoping so. And then we have Viruta y Capulina, this pair of actors who would do a lot of comedy together. And then they would also do little spoofs, scary movies. And the most, I feel like, popular actor as far as horror is El Santo, the wrestler. So he, I need to have you watch some of his movies because that's what I was watching a lot on TV. Was en santo en santo against the vampire woman so the mummies zombies invasion of aliens dead of world of the dead and then against witches so every movie he was fighting a different monster oh man so he covered everything so these movies in mexico did they have like big like in the the states theatrical like releases i don't remember like how does movies were from the 70s and 80s how so when you're growing up in mexico how did that work did you guys have big cinema like trailers on tv like coming out on whatever this is coming come see us in the theaters like did you have that you don't remember any of it probably okay i just was curious on tv i did not go to the movie theaters i know but like you don't ever remember seeing like trailers on commercials in between your novellas no they that's just what was playing. Weekends weekends i feel like popular tv networks it was most all movies no no commercials yes commercials but that's what i'm saying like your regular tv shows so most of it it was movies and then like you would have this recurring like domingo and gigante and sabado gigante every saturday, And then there was another one that would come out on Sundays. So I understand that part, the shows playing on TV. But in between the shows, the commercial breaks. You never had like trailers or anything? They never did that? It was commercials for companies and selling things. Oh, okay. I get you. Maybe for soap operas was a big one for commercials. Real quick, what was your favorite soap opera going on? Talia. No, Marimar. Nice. What was your mom's? I don't know. I did a name. I had a dog. I had a white lab. I named her after Marimar's dog, Solavino. Wait, what was the name? The dog's name? Yeah. Solavino. Solamino? Solavino. Solavino. Yeah, from Marimar. Well, shout out. I'm sure some of our listeners love that. Also, whenever in Spokane, guys, Elsa Zone. Oh, my God. Hey, man. Good food. Good place to be. good hangout um so anyways richard i was not uncultured i was just watching different stuff from you thank you we can go back to poltergeist three okay cool cool great we come from two different worlds but we our paths lined up now and uh thank you for that i love you so much for Oh, you're very welcome. Thank you. You've made me more cultured. Okay. Hmm. Okay. So 1988, but we're going to have a different format this time around. Instead of covering all the movies that kind of came out in this year, the biggest one, we're going to change it up. So we're not going to cover them all. But the biggest one that came out, the highest grossing movie was the Tom Cruise, Dustin Hoffman movie, Rain Man. Have you ever seen that? I don't know. No. Oh, dang. I'm just going to say no because I don't remember. I remember the name. Yeah, Rain Man. We'll have to watch it. So yeah, that's the top girl. Well, she's not in her head. She hates Tom Cruise, guys. No, I don't. Damn. So yeah, we might have to cover that. Hey, you're trying to push Titanic on me every weekend. I do not. You keep trying to bring up Titanic. Oh my gosh. gosh but notable horror movies or at least our note to me in 1988 that come out and some of these we're actually going to cover here in the next several weeks is we have a nightmare on elm street 4 the dream master we have child's play making its debut hellbound hellraiser 2 the blob which we're going to cover either it's not next week but probably the week after or maybe the The week after? Or the week after that. It's coming, guys. But it's not the original blob. It's the one with Matt Dillon's brother in it. Kevin Dillon? Yeah, Kevin Dillon, Entourage. Not bad movie. It was covered. It was made in 1988. It's the remade version, which is pretty good. And then we have Maniac Cop, which is awesome. It has our boy Bruce Campbell in it. Phantasm 2, which is pretty freaking awesome. They had a huge budget for that. And I think did a pretty good job. Wes Craven or no, was this Wes Craven, the serpent in the rainbow? It was either Wes Craven or John Carpenter. I think it was Wes. Then we have Pumpkinhead making its debut. Have you ever seen Pumpkinhead? No. Fuck, we got to cover that. I'm starting to figure out late 80s. Mid to late 80s was my childhood horror. Like, we watched the shit out of Pumpkinhead. I fucking love that movie. Killer Clowns of Outer Space, you've seen that. Bits and pieces, not the entire thing. I'm not a huge fan of it, but I know a lot of people are. It has a cult following, but it has some entertaining pieces to it for sure. And then last one i'm not terribly familiar with dead ringers does that ring a bell to you no no yeah so those were the horror movies that i i found that came out in 1988 along with poltergeist three which poltergeist three was i was wondering why the hell did they make a poltergeist three it's purely a money grab and it kind of was but they didn't really make too much money off it It was primarily made due to the success of the first two films in the series. The original Poltergeist in 1982 was significant box office success and received critical acclaim because the director was Toby Hooper, the guy who created Texas Chainsaw Massacre. But it also had Amblin Films and... Gosh, the director, the Jurassic Park director. God damn it. His name. We watched this. Ready player one. He's classic. Steven Spielberg. Fuck. I'm sorry, guys
