Very Unreasonable Things

This week we're operating without Josh but we've brought in Cortney Sanders to talk about one of her childhood favorites, The People Under the Stairs.  The movie tries to answer the age old question, is it worth it to follow a treasure map that leads to a basement of a house owned by two maniacs who happen to be brother and sister AND in an incestuous relationship AND harboring long haired hair metal cannibals in their basement.  Does this 1991 Wes Craven horror comedy offering hold up or has time passed it by?  Tune in to find out what we think.  Thanks for listening.

On this episode we discuss the year 1989, the movies, the television, the games, the music and of course mixtape songs.  This is a special topic episode, we hope you enjoy.  Editors note:  Unfortunately there are some audio issues, I've tried to correct them as best I can but ultimately I am an amateur at editing, hopefully they aren't too horrible.  We'll do better next time and try to continue to improve.

This is the first episode of a mini rebranding of sorts.  As we try to find our footing in podcasting we decided that the Very Unreasonable Podcast proper will be strictly about movies going forward.  Any episode that is a topic episode from here on out will have the title Very Unreasonable Things Presents:  (insert topics here).  In this rebranded topic episode Billy, Josh and Daniel discuss their favorite sophomore albums, disappointing performances by actors/actresses in movies we otherwise love and what hill are you willing to die on.

What's the most dangerous job in Illinois? If you guessed babysitter you would be correct.  In this episode we discuss the horror that these brave souls, namely Laurie Strode, face in the form of the ominous Michael Myers and his equally deranged psychiatrist Dr. Sam Loomis.  After spending eight years trying to reach him and seven years trying to keep him locked away Michael escapes with some pretty nifty driving moves he learned obviously at the Smith's Grove Sanitarium's drivers ed course.  What ensues is a night of terror as Michael methodically hunts down Haddonfield's biggest threat to freedom, the teenage babysitter.  In hot pursuit is Dr. Loomis with his six shooter which he most definitely has a permit for.  Loomis engages in a series of buddy cop adventures as he chases his former patient from the suburbs to the hospital where the only patients are a handful of newborns and a poor child who bit into razor that the doctors refuse to see.  Take a listen as we discuss an American horror classic and it's not quite as classic sequel.

What do you get when a studio secures the rights to one of the biggest horror franchises in of the 80s with a antagonist that people have been waiting to see clash with the other big icon of 80s horror?  You sure as hell don't get Freddy vs Jason, instead you get two bad movies that were meant to be the end of their franchises.  On top of that you get two guys talking about Jason Goes to Hell for far too long and they have to push the Freddy's Dead portion of the episode into a second part.  So here we are finishing up the epic that is Freddy's Dead vs Jason Goes to Hell, an epic so grand that it is only matched by the Illiad(if the Illiad had been written by two idiots).  What happens when the once proud Nightmare on Elm Street series sinks so low that not even Iggy Pop and The Goo Goo Dolls can save it?  Tune in and find out.

On this special episode of Very Unreasonable Things it's part 1 of Freddy vs Jason (no not that movie).  It's Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare vs Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday.  We mourn the loss of two icons in Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees, due mainly to progressively lower quality of sequels and diminishing box office returns.  In the first episode we take a look at Jason Goes to Hell.  For whom does the bell toll? It tolls for thee Jason Voorhees and Freddy Krueger. At least until the inevitable lack of ideas require these series to be restarted. Check it out.
