Black Christmas is often credited as the first "real" slasher film. It heavily inspired Halloween and began a lot of the slasher tropes that are used now.
Right? Everyone be like “hALLoWeEn iS tHe oG sLAsHer” when really it’s Black Christmas, TCM, Psycho and Peeping Tom that are the REAL OG’s!!
@@aaronshouting588 I'd say while Psycho had lot of elements, it's more of a psychological thriller than a slasher. Also I personally don't consider Peeping Tom a slasher, but I do think it's an inspiration. Blood and Black Lace (1964), A Bay of Blood (1971) and Torso (1973) had a lot more in common with Black Christmas and Halloween than Psycho does. According to PasteMagazine (What Truly Was the First “Slasher Film”? A Paste Investigation), Sergio Martino's Torso a.k.a. The Bodies Bear Traces of Carnal Violence is the very first film that meets all the slasher criteria ("killer’s POV shots; extremely graphic killings; a secluded location; constant themes of voyeurism; a masked killer; an actual final girl; [...]").
@@avantgarde4158 I think all of those Italian movies you listed there are part of an entirely different breed of slashers called “Giallo” which is a genre that has many familiar formulas that one would find in a typical slasher flick from that era. I’m not talking about those. I’m talking about the more mainstream movies that everyone knows and talks about which is of course, Halloween, Friday the 13th, TCM, Black Christmas, Psycho etc etc. But yes you are right with your assessment in that those movies did it first and whatnot… also I disagree with you about both Psycho and Peeping Tom not being slashers. They are definitely slasher movies and are highly considered pioneers of the genre!
Hell yeah
Some say _Alien_ is a contender as well, but that's a moot point.
Glad to hear how enthusiastic Adam was to describe the final act of Malignant
I'm glad the overall synergy for this episode feels less cynical. The bois thanking each other more so than past episodes, and discussing the films more neutrally instead of IT'S A MOVIE FOR TEENS. Nice episode.
I got to add another movie to my "horror movie with a police station massacre" list.
So far:
Maniac Cop
Maniac Cop 2
Terminator
Jason Goes to Hell
Malignant
If anyone knows of others, let me know. Its a very niche thing, but it's always ludicrous/hilarious when it happens
@@ghoulish6125 silence of lambs
@@mr.dimitry6263 while i remember that movie fondly, I haven't seen it in quite some time, is there a massacre at a police station?
@@ghoulish6125 well, some people from police die, but no massacre.
All the scenes in the house at the end of _Massacre_ bring the movie to a higher level. I re-watched that part for the first time in quite a while and it made me feel tight in the chest from how chaotic it is. The constant screaming, the Sawyers yelling at each other, everyone being covered in sweat/grime/blood, the furniture made of human body parts, the grinding industrial noise that makes up the "soundtrack," etc. coalesce to form this atmosphere of horrible, nightmarish delirium. The hitchhiker and cook characters are hamming it up, but them being so animated and over-the-top added to the feverish "unreality" of the situation.
Yo that Venom bet Sardonicast #19 Alex, Adam looks like you guys owe Ralph some money.
I'm *REALLY* disappointed Ralph didn't see Malignant, the cheesy goofy violent scenes are definitely up his alley
Texas Chainsaw massacre really is a memorable movie, to this day its a pretty unique movie.
One of the best of its kind honestly
Being low budget and grainy actually worked in the film’s advantage lol
@@swansonjoe7121 iiiii j JJ JJ Jk JJ JJ jj
How I’ve always heard it said is “TCSM is a movie that seems like it was actually made by insane people”
@@swansonjoe7121 yeah, most backwoods/hillybilly horror movies tend to have shades of TCM.. but that’s why it is a considered classic in horror cinema. It even spawned the whole “5 group of friends” cliche in slasher movies!!
Calling it right now: Donkey Kong’s going to say “Hey, these are pretty cool bananas…” at some point in the Mario movie.
And then he trips balls
Nah, Nintendo's only involvement in the film will be them insisting any drug or sex jokes be cut. Nintendo is like a Christian mother.
our love is stronger than a golden banana
They'll use that old Gwen Stefani song about bananas while Donkey Kong and his recently assembled heist team walk towards the camera in slow motion.
I doubt it
The bet was: by the end of the year 2022, Venom and Spider-Man man would crossover at some point (that being Tom hardy and Tom Holland of course). Alex and Adum believed it would never happen and Ralph was on the contrary. Alex and Ralph bet 50 bucks on it whereas Adum bet 5.
Actually: it’s by October 16th, 2022.
*Spoilers*
The post credit scene of Venom 2 confirms Ralph won the bet.
Ralph also said “announced” so not full cross over. At least announced
Black Christmas which also came out in 1974 is typically considered a precursor to the slasher film and was an inspiration for Halloween
Oh! How about all three: the 1974, 2006, & 2019? I wanna hear Adam rip through the 2006 one, because that one fucking sucked!
Loved that film, but Bob Clark's Black Christmas and the North American slasher genre in general are heavily inspired by Italian giallo, a genre that doesn't get enough recognition imo. It continues to inspire and influence generations of filmmakers. Edgar Wright's Last Night in Soho, for instance, looks clearly inspired by Mario Bava's Blood and Black Lace (1964). Sergio Martino's Torso may be the first slasher film, as it predates Black Christmas by a year.
@@avantgarde4158 Very true! Giallo definitely deserves more space in horror conversation
@@avantgarde4158 Yes! Speaking of Mario Bava, Bay of Blood came out in 1971 and is considered the proto- Friday the 13th
@@avantgarde4158 Agreed. We talk of the many slashers like Michael Meyers or Chucky or Jason or Freddy and such, but I oddly find myself getting way into the silly theatrics of Giallo and coming back to them more than the tradition big names of horror here. I dunno, I must be kinda odd to say that.
Leatherface is easy to feel sympathy for. His nervous movements, and constantly trying to appease his abusive family.
You can also clearly see he hates killing, Feels guilt after every death.
@@Jd-gl1mw Except his first kill that we see, the one with the door slam. There's no regret there.
If you count how many times Ralph calls the 2003 remake “bland”, you’ll have an aneurysm
1:35:41 Looks like Ralph has officially won the bet!
Lol
I did a highlight reel a few days ago on my channel.
Lol
@@MrJoker3571 cool
Here's the proof: ruclips.net/video/2QuHgnPE0DM/видео.html
If I remember correctly, I think they intended the soundtrack for Texas Chainsaw to try and simulate the experience of being in a slaughterhouse from an animal's perspective. I also seem to remember them saying that one of the things they did for the sound design was "torture an upright bass" which is fun.
I can’t believe the intro Adum gave us, it’s macabre
M'caaab

The vibe of this episode is very positive! Happycast! Love it
Malignant establishes a campy tone from its very first scene. Examples below:
Opening shot is of a ridiculous castle hospital.
Opening scene contains lines such as:
"It's like he's........DRINKING the electricity!!"
"He's broadcasting his THOUGHTS!"
"You've been a BAD BOY, Gabriel!"
"It's time to CUT OUT the CANCER." (with dramatic zoom).
All this is capped off with an opening credits sequence and rock music. James Wan knew EXACTLY what he was doing.
But do we know what he was doing? I think it was an intentional middle finger to the studio. I have only seen reviews and discussions of his previous work and they all look mediocre mass appeal movies, but competent. Malignant seemed like an intentional sabotage.
@@dirrdevil I wouldn't say "sabotage"but it's definitely a movie no modern studio would want, James Wan just wanted to make a cheesy horror movie
@@dirrdevil I believe malignant is to James Wan after he made Aquaman what Inception was for Nolan after he made the Dark Knight: a carte blanche "victory lap" movie where he could do whatever he wanted after having his movie make a zillion bucks. It certainly feels that way, given how goofy and out there it is.
James Wan knew what he was doing. But the marketing team did not. There's no doubt they unintentionally hurt the film by marketing it like a standard horror experience. No doubt many people who saw the film were not going into it expecting it to be campy
Yeah how can you watch the acting and sound design in the “I’m adopted” scene and not think that’s obviously intentional
Black Christmas (74) is usually cited as the original Slasher film. It was released on the exact same day as Texas Chainsaw, but its structure and tropes are much closer to what you'd expect from an old school slasher. John Carpenter actually said Halloween was originally his fantasy sequel to Black Christmas. I think Texas Chainsaw's influence was more through the iconagraphy of Leatherface. He's absolutely the first of that Slasher style of killer, where it's more of a highly recognisable modern age Universal monster than a person.
I appreciate Alex's subtle correction of Adum's pronunciation of "invalid"
The v is silent
@@HOTD108_ the i's are silent
I laughed and applauded when Adam said, "You have to suffer through the first two acts of the film [Malignant], but the payoff in the third act is definitely worth it".
James Rolfe should guest star on the sardonicast, if he has any free 2 hours in the next 5 months
Mm-hm, yeah, uh-huh, yep
no time!
He'll just spend the entire podcast reading off a plagiarized script Screenwave "wrote" for him.
@@thrallfan1056 did he do that before? I thought James was a beloved content creator.
@@danieldimichele2083 In the most recent monster madness on 28 days later he got caught reading off a plagiarized script. He uploaded an apology video but later took it down and swept it under the rug with comments about plagiarism getting deleted. Basically exposed that he doesn't even watch the movies he reviews just reads off a script that Screenwave gives and they're so lazy they couldn't be bothered to write an actual script.
Malignant had to be intentional. Like how is the following dialogue not intentionally hilarious:
Gabriel (as a demonic voice on the phone): DoCtOr WeAvEr!
Weaver (answering completely unphased): Yes?
Gabriel: TiMe To CuT oUt ThE cAnCeR!
Weaver: What?
My personal favorite is when they cut to the police sketch of the killer, and it just looks like a mangled child's drawing, and the cops are just like, 'fuck this'.
“We need backup. Bring the National fucking Guard.” That was hilarious.
Alex’s recs are always awesome 😊👍
Never lost a friend over a film, but one over Aqua Teen Hunger force.
She was convinced fry lock was the devil because he was red, levitated and did magic, and thus the entire show was satanic and i should not watch it.
I didn't take her seriously but after that conversation she never spoke to me again.
sounds like you're better off
@@gumshake689 My thoughts as well.
frylock isn't satan, he's god. My god.
I actually loved malignant. its so campy and fun. I was laughing all the time. one of the better "horror" movies in recent time.
I honestly thought it was higher quality and much more enjoyable than Night House
Yes, the "dirt" look of the first texas chainsaw is for sure the best look, the second one comes close but misses in other aspects, but that first one nails it.
“The word macabre is ruined for me…”
Me: 👁 👄 👁
Yes! I was hoping that you three would discuss Malignant :)
Almost 2 hours of great content. Tnx boi's.
In Spain BrainDead was translated as "Tu madre se comió a mi perro" which is "Your mother ate my dog" in spanish
I was hoping they would have mentioned the final shot in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre where leatherface dances with his chainsaw in the sunrise. That's one of my most favorite shots ever
i heard so many myths as like a 2nd to 3rd grader about how leather face was a real guy and how the movie actually toned down the real stuff lol. It was kind of a texas legend
Heh sadly more an homage to my home state, Wisconsin, and Ed Gein. The serial killer gift that keeps on giving, inspiring some of Texas Chainsaw, Psycho and Silence of the Lambs. He was even alive, in a mental hospital in my home town when I was a kid... which I am just now learning.
@@g.b.f9859 yeah i learned about the Gein stuff later haha. I guess the Wisconsin Chainsaw Massacre just isn't as evocative
@@OlPalJoe I would love to hear why they settled on Texas as a setting, I assume when people think of rural Wisconsin maybe they think forests and log cabins? But was there a specific reason to pick Texas.
@@g.b.f9859 lot's of wide open space, the oppressive heat (really makes the actors sweat sells the realism imo)? idk just a shot in the dark
I hope sometime this month these guys would review The Exorcist.
I like how they had a whole conversation about how you can spell chain saw both ways and they ended spelling it in two different ways
“I like shit” - Ralph, 2021
The opening credits set to footage of the sun always unnerved me.
You guys should delve into the sight and sound top 250. It's definitely got some of the familiar films, but has much better international representation than other lists
Adam bringing up One Cut of the Dead in this is like the Sardonicast equivalent of foreshadowing Thanos six years before he was the villain
I know Adam might not read this, but I can't explain how much I relate to your childhood experience with the Texas Chainsaw remake.
I too was scared back then and would look out my window even in daytime! lol
I have rewatched it since then and it definitely isn't scary, but it's fun to think back to my childhood. The Original 1974 movie is a classic and I definitely find it brutal and memorable compared to any other attempt at a texas chainsaw movie.
Playing DBD actually gets you desensitized to many of these movies! XD
I think i stopped being scared of horror films when i was about 12. Since then nothing has scared me except survival horror games.
James Wan is the next Sam Raimi
Cant wait for the Venom 2 discussion! 😂
We're 4 episode away from the 100th episode, on November 29! I wonder what special occasion we'll have for that day.
I hope they finally review Boogie Nights or Magnolia.
I don’t want it to happen, but i think there’s a possibility that 100 will be the final episode
@@mathemachickenmadge2963 x for doubt
@@mathemachickenmadge2963 what's your reasoning behind this theory?
@@superheatedsaturnite Nothing concrete, but given that they seem like they don’t enjoy it as much anymore (especially Ralph) and how the subreddit is somewhat toxic, there’s a possibility. Plus episode 100 would make for a nice milestone to stop at
The first slasher film would be Homicidal (1961), but The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Black Christmas definitely popularized the genre.
Black Christmas was the first slasher movie. Texas Chain Saw Massacre came out a couple weeks earlier, but Black Christmas established the formula more.
I've had to add so many movies to my watch list because of this episode 🤕
Ngl when you guys said backwards I thought you meant in reverse like they were in the black lodge and I got really excited.
40:15 There's Black Christmas (1974), a canadian slasher movie
Oh yes Braindead Peter Jackson's masterpiece! Alex always recommend the best movies.
That he does!
Would love to hear you guys discuss “Black Christmas” (1974)
IHE slick correcting Adum at the beginning✊🏽 respeck
I would love to hear Adum open the podcast with his recitation of Litany Against Fear when they discuss Dune. That would make my day.
Malignant really reminded me of some scenes from some old kung fu horror/fantasy flicks. Think it was Spooky Encounters, Dreadnaught or Zu, Yuen Biao fights one of those demons with the 2 sided 2 faced black and white clothes.
Texas Chainsaw has my favorite reveal in any horror movie ever. When he slams open that door and grabs the girl oh man, I love this movie and have the good fortune to live kind of close to where they filmed it, Bastrop, TX
Sort of off-topic, but really curious to see what Ralph will think of The Many Saints of Newark and I hope he puts out a review of it.
he rated 4.5/5 in letterboxd.
@@arshsabir damn that's higher than I thought he would
@@arshsabir most people don’t even like it
Do we find out the backstory of the gabagool?
Watched Texas Chain Saw Massacre for the first time last night. Really good.
SPOILERS FOR MALIGNANT
I watched Malignant high as fuck and all the tonal clashing in the first portion came across a lot funnier and I THINK it's intentional.
I am fairly confident that James Wan essentially made a prank film, it is played self seriously enough to lure people into a false sense of security but there are little hints and nuggets to suggest what is coming, for example the opening scene, the comedically abusive boyfriend, the ultra schlocky b-movie acting, the drawing of the villian that was given to the police ect ect. It starts to boil up a bit as it goes, I think the best mid point example is the chase scene, watching that goofy fucking monster parkour down the stairs then tarzan swing in the underground section was pretty fucking hilarious.
And obviously the ending is *chef's kiss*
Now I'm not 100% sure how much of this was intentional and I 100% plan on rewatching it because i was way too cooked to give it an objective look HOWEVER no one can take that first watch experience away from me and I'm so glad I got to experience it at least once, hopefully on rewatch it will be more clearly intentional but who the fuck knows.
The second watch is what confirms how damn intentional it all is and cements itself as a camp classic. I laughed my ass off for both viewings
i think that psycho would be the original influential slasher, but i'm sure there was something that came before that
Psycho is like a thriller not a slasher
@@zenleeparadise sure but i can see the building blocks in their that would go on to be used in slasher movies, especially something like texas chainsaw
@@littleratchild6744 oh 100% but it inspiring slashers doesn’t make it a slasher
@@zenleeparadise you're right poor phrasing on my part
@@littleratchild6744 the relationship of early thrillers’ inspiration on early slashers sounds like it’d be interesting to have a deep dive into, though!
1:09:41 Maybe the greatest laugh I've ever heard.
I’m really surprised you guys liked malignant as much as you did, im totally with you guys on the first 2/3s, and I guess I didn’t understand the last part was goofy on purpose? I gave it a 3 but maybe I have to rewatch with a more lighthearted approach. I was with my buds and we were looking to get scared, but didn’t fine the movie too scary which was also part of the disappointment.
Ralph “nervous laugh” The Movie-Maker
I just watched "Titane" last night and absolutely loved it. The main character had the same arc as the lead from "Under The Skin", so for that reason, I'd be interested to hear Ralph's thoughts on it since Under The Skin is his favorite movie.
Also, BrainDead (Dead Alive) is one of my favorites but I can't a physical release of it to buy anywhere.
I was thinking the same thing when I saw it but I was honestly underwhelmed with the film. It just made "Under The Skin" that much more of a masterpiece in comparison.
Could someone tell me their interpretation of it? I.e, what was the car pregnancy meant to symbolize? Why did she go on a sudden killing spree one day? What did the metal plate in her head have to do with anything? I want to discuss it with other people then give it another watch.
Gotta go with Ursula, a villain partly inspired by the legendary Divine.
And the Sound & Sound lists are probably the best, if we're talking about lists that include world cinema (non-English films).
"Hey buddy, I think you got the wrong door.
The leather club's two blocks down."
Rest in peace, Billy Herrington.
I find it funny that the Crew both talks about whats the first Slasher and Malignant and don't mention Giallo movies.
My dad told me the first time he had a panic attack was in the theater watching Texas CM 2. The scene where they’re at the table eating humans. He said it didn’t even scare him but all the sudden his heart was pounding, his chest hurt, he was shaking, etc. the imagery was that disturbing to him.
TCM 2021 is supposed to be direct to Netflix I believe, that might be why it says "internet"
Venom spoilers if you're into that kind of thing
I haven't even seen the new Venom yet, but I already know that Ralph won the bet lol.
Adam put up five bucks, and Alex put up fifty.
This was literally right around the deadline that the bet was set for as well. Either October 2021 or 2022. Regardless, it's hilarious to see this bet now slowly beginning to unfold lol
Alex casually, but coolly correcting Adam's mispronunciation of invalid (because it's a homonym of invalid, though very similar meanings) is really funny. It was the 70s, it was a couple of years off from the word "wheelchair bound", and the now preferred term "persons who uses a wheelchair." Also RIP Tobe Hooper. The guerilla style filmmaking that made the original TCM look more like a documentary shot on 16mm than a feature length motion picture was genius. The marketing of the film and opening crawl claiming this as based on true events was genius. The kills being so tame compared to today, and yet so effective that people thought they saw the hook go through Pam's shoulder was genius. Everything from the lighting in the night shots, the use of a real chainsaw, the actual chase through the woods at night, the night shoots being lit with whatever was on hand, and so so much more make this the most effective and influential horror film ever made in my opinion.
tl;dr TCM is amazing, go watch it
Kinda sad no one brought up Frollo for the best Disney Villains, i thought he did an amazing performance.
Frollo is incel
@@Gum_Cuzzler Incels are real life villains, so that checks out
The hills have eyes (2006) would be a good one to review. Would love to hear opinions on that.
*My Mario Movie pitch:*
I think the best route for a Mario movie would be a comedy. Make Mario the straight man dealing with the absurdity of the Mushroom Kingdom and make everyone else hilarious: Peach, Luigi, Toad, and Bowser. Like have the movie begin with Mario finishing an epic adventure where he has finally rescued Peach from Donkey Kong. Present it like a final scene of a movie where the protagonists are relieved, they begin to celebrate, and BAM! Bowser comes in and kidnaps Peach. Mario goes WTF and has to start all over, just completely exhausted and frustrated. This is where the movie begins. Now, Mario's new adventure begins and the movie proper starts; however, this is Mario's life. Bowser has kidnapped Peach a million times before and Mario is questioning the point of his life and wants to fundamentally change the dynamics of everything he deals with. Also, while Mario is doing Mario things like fighting Koopas and stuff, Mario can comment on how he's worried about Peach, but the movie will then cut to Peach and Bowser each time actually having a great fucking time in Bowser's Castle: racing Go Karts, playing tennis and golf, etc. At the end, Mario learns this, realizes everyone is dysfunctional, and has to set things straight where he and Bowser and Peach have to stop their cycle of craziness. It works, everything looks bright for the Mushroom Kingdom. Right before the movie ends, Mario is relaxing on a recliner, finally has a break, cut to a portal opening in the sky, Nintendo franchise characters pour out and they warn a martial arts tournament to save the world is imminent, Mario is needed, and you see Master Hand from Smash Bros. hanging above. Mario crushes his beer and starts grimacing. It ends in him yelling at the camera. The dude just never gets a break.
It might be a bit early to start a smash bros crossover, but the rest of your pitch sounds great. Of course that means that what happens will be no where near this and end up 10 times worse
Luigi should be a straight man as well.... Since Mario and him are brothers... Charlie Day freaking out at a obsurd situation instead of being obsurd Is always funny
You're putting too much thought into the fucking Mario movie dude lmao
Fund it
The best route for a Mario movie is to not do a Mario movie.
They should have checked the sight & sound or the TSPDT lists. Those have more foreign films on them.
I always liked the Horned King from Black Cauldron. He's not a charismatic villain like a lot of Disney villains, but he scared me as a kid. Not the kind of scared where I was scared to sleep at night. His presence just felt evil and powerful to the point where it made me think "Now that's a scary dude"
I fucking love Malignant
I have to thank the 2003 one because I was 2 young to know about the others
I'm surprised they didn't get Ryan Reynolds to play Mario
Texas chainsaw massacre is my favourite horror film. Just brilliant and terrifying
1:48:49 When you're playing a game, piss just comes out?
Fuck yeah Alex, brain-dead is great. can't wait for this one
I had the exact same thought as Adam at 28:40
honestly a movie where a crazy man thinks he's mario would be pretty entertaining
I just tune out for a few seconds until I hear Adam start reciting rip the skin
Fun fact about 53:00 - some of the cuts and blood you see on her are real, as she really was running through brush and crap.
None of them mentioned the actual best Disney villian, frollo from The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
Texas chainsaw released the same day as Black Christmas, another early, highly influential slasher film
The remix Pixie song in Malignant is on purpose, it's a giant joke, the song is called "Where is my mind?"
dude i saw it with friends and when i first heard it i burst out laughing. i was crying bc i was laughing so hard, that single sound cue made me know where it was going. what a fun film
When I was like 16 I watched Texas chainsaw massacre almost every day for an entire summer lol. It's one of a kind for sure.
Can you guys review the raid movies?
In the Mario movie, Spike is Foreman Spike from Wrecking Crew.
Damn I don’t remember anything but the third act from Malignant
Tcm 2 is actually really great. It’s basically a parody, that’s the point
Yeah, Ralph really undersold it, it's better than the first imo, love the original but the second is one of my all time favorites
I flopped through a friend's copy of '1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die' years ago and was appalled by the number of factual errors that even a layman should have picked up. It actually said the direct of 'Alien' was David Fincher.
One cut of the dead is great
I love Mr ralphthemoviemaker
For anyone interested, watch the royal ocean film society’s video on bad taste, the history of that movie is insane and the video is really funny
No love for Claude Frollo for best Disney villains is crazy to me, I think he's by FAR the best Disney villain in animated form at least
Darth Vader? I died a little inside when I realized, yes, he's a Disney villain.
I called the twist quite early on! Feminine body all bent backwards, she's at all the muders, and "where is my mind" like a nod to fight club cos every movie that has that twist can't pretend everyone's already seen it in fight club. It's like that "Edward Mordrake" meme- guy in victorian times or whatever had a female face on the back of his head who would whisper to him to kill people etc. Pretty sure there's a character like Mordrake in American Horror Story, too.
I love Ralph and how passionate is about movies he just knows are good. He has the vocabulary to back up his claims right away it's awesome.
