Yeah, well, I was thinking of like you were talking about cows or something. Oh shut up, yeah. So there you go. So Neil Roadhouse. Uh quickly, we'll do a little roadhouse in a nutshell, Neil. Oh so basically, it's a 1989 action film, it stars Patrick Swansea as the bouncer or the cooler. Yeah, yeah, you know the cooler is eh, Neil. Yes, John. What is he? He's a bouncer in America. Now now he's not Neil. He kills the carbs of the situation down. Yeah, but why is he why is it why are they called coolers? Because he he kills everybody down. Now now he opens up his belly and there's some Bud Boys in there. Now a cooler looks after the bouncers, it's like the person over the bouncers, yeah, who says, Listen, this is the way you do it, co cool, be be cool kind of thing.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, he's head of the bouncers, yes.
SPEAKER_03Uh uh is uh Swedes applies a bouncer Dalton at the newly refurbished roadside bar, um, who also protects a small town in Missouri uh from a corrupt businessman. Basically, that is the uh the premise. That is Rodeuse in a nutshell, Neil. So where do we start with Rodehouse? Where do we start? Start at the beginning, Sean. Well, this is the thing. I think we should start right at the beginning, and the beginning of the film for me, because obviously the film starts at the beginning for a lot of different people. The beginning starts for me at the double deuce. Yeah, the double deuce is the um basically it's the it's the the pub in in question or or the uh the roadside bar as they call it in America or whatever, but that's where it begins, Neil. When you first see the roadhouse, where you sell well, the it's called the Rodest because they called them Rhodes back in the day, yeah. That's why the song at the start is Rodez Blues, which was by I don't know, the Doors Neil. Well, the doors, and uh it was it was sung by the person in the film who is the uh is the crossado's Neil, and uh Jeff Haley was singing, yeah, yeah. Yeah, so the the roadest know what well the double deuce, sorry. What did you think? What did you think? Yeah, yeah, the the route the the double deuce keep saying fucking rowders, it's the bastard double deuce. What did you think of the double deuce? Is it a kind of place you'd like to go and spend a quiet quiet evening? Well, not really over a candlelit dinner. A bit like having a candlelit dinner down the fucking uh you said a candlelit dick then zone and ethos, yeah. Can you can you tell people what the zone and it needs? You're just saying words and you've got to explain what you show up, you know what I mean? Ben Elton's here again, eh? Just saying you've got to explain yourself out of mouth.
SPEAKER_05Where in where we live, right? There used to be two girl clubs together down and ethos, yes, and that was like the fucking double dudes. The bounce were absolute tossers, yeah. They used to just love to beat people up, just bullies basically. And fucking used to go in there and he used to kick off all the wall job, and and sometimes blokes used to kick off as well, it was many fucking women.
SPEAKER_03I mean, my good dragged out there by his hair, boys ponytail. Well, it was the nineties, it was the nineties, yeah. Yeah, it was it was a rough hole. It was scrapping all the time. People were scrapping for what before they even went in the place.
SPEAKER_02Was the bounces of tossers?
SPEAKER_03That was basically our version of the double deuce. Do you know what I mean? But Warsaw in general, Neil, back in the day, was a rough hole, wasn't it? Yeah, but everybody just went down the town, got pissed on cheap booze, and had a scrap.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, used to be pound and pointed cider, John, on a Wednesday night. Yeah, everybody, nine eighty percent of the people in there were being chinned.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, yeah. It was horrible. I hated it. So, anyway, uh the owner of the double deuce is just come into some money now. He's just come into some money and he wants to refurbish it. Well, he has refurbished, he refurbished it overnight, apparently. Uh Mr. Frank Tillman, yeah, yeah. And he he wants the best cooler in the business to tidy the place up. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, he don't ask for rickets, he don't ask for dive rickets, Sean Miller. He don't ask for none of them, he wants Dalton. Dalton is the man, Neil. So so there you go. Plus, Dalton comes with a reputation, but he must do because people have heard of him. I mean, it's like all the bouncers that we we kind of spoke to or knew through the years and some of the places we went to. If you didn't live in Warsaw, you wouldn't know who the Piss and Alan was, would I? Everybody in America knew Dalton. Yeah, he was the best colour in the business, even though Dalton himself stated Neil that um Wade Garrett was the best. Yeah, Wade Garrett doing his best. Yeah. Hello, Migo. So Neil, how much how much did Frank Tillman offer Dalton to take over um to actually clean up the double deuce? I don't know, John. He offered him five grand up front. Now, this is a lot eighty nights, that's a lot of money, and five hundred dollars a night. That's not bad, and and and pays for his medical bills. Oh what much does he? No, he could have got him with stab vest, wouldn't he? Can you pay for me lodgings as well? And me'cause got car tax. Oh no, but anyway, it he's worth it, Dorton, because he's got some a secret set of skills. He's the best cooler in the business now. So yeah, so there you go. He's good, real good. So he goes into the double dose, he says it's an absolute shithole. You got Jeff Ealy um singing his little heart out, blind as a bat, being bottles of beer locked at it. So, what was with the the chicken the chicken wire at the start? What was all that about? Of course, it's just stopped him brought the brown the bottles off his head, John. Well, yeah, but he was still getting he was getting sprayed in splinters of glass. So probably it's probably worse. He's fucking blind anyway. I'd have wore glasses. Well, he nearly wore a few glasses. He did, oh good job. The chicken wire was there. But there's one little bit about that scene. Obviously, there's a fight kicks off all the time. Um, it's it's the guy on there dancing his arse off in his jeans and no top on. You just know it's a fucking shithole, yeah, just from that scene. But the music's great, it's here, man. The music's absolutely great.
SPEAKER_05Well, he's like rock music, wasn't it? Well, back in the day.
SPEAKER_03Blues Neil Blues, yeah. Rodez, Rodez Blues, yeah. We get that in the end, people. Um so yeah, um, there's a guy behind the bar near. He looks like a proper Mexican and his little Mexican moustache, and uh Dalton spots him straight away, yeah. Skimming from the tilt. Yeah, I ain't having none of that. I'm not having none of that. Well, he catches him, Dabby John. Yeah, yeah, he catches him and he's like, fucking sling your hook, sunshine, sling your bloody hook. But he is um Brad Wesley is the movie's villain, it's his nephew, so you know shit's gonna kick off, don't you? Yeah, and it did. Thanks, Neil. And he did, it did it. Well, it did, but we've got to go back, we've got to stop where we are just after the first noise. Dalton has come in, Mr. Frank is there at the you know, this is Dalton, blah blah blah. And um, he's got all the staff there, and he's basically saying it's it's it's my way or the other way. Yeah, it's as simple as that. What's it what's that famous line he says to that one? Well, the one guy says something to uh Dalton, yeah, when he's giving him his three um kind of like you can't do this, you can't do that, just be nice. Yeah, all you gotta do is be nice, and what does he say, Neil?
SPEAKER_05The one well about because my mama a whore. Is she now?
SPEAKER_03If you if you take that into context, Neil, the the guy in question, he he gave him the the answer, yeah. You know, he he he kind of fed the pony, as it were. Dalton just said, you know, well, is she? You know what I mean? Yeah, so you got I mean what a what a great line. It's it's funny as fuck.
SPEAKER_04Brilliant lines in it, John.
SPEAKER_03Oh yeah. Did you know that um the other bouncing with the uh the wonky eye? Yeah it looks like it looks like he's got a fucking sunflower on his head. Yeah, yeah. That's uh that's the uh the WWE wrestler Terry Funk. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, Terry Funk. And uh he could he comes out with another catchphrase.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, you know.
SPEAKER_03And um how's it going here? Let me think. I'll look. Yeah, somebody told me about Dalton or something like that. And he goes, uh someone said you got balls big enough to come in a dump truck.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Makes no sense. What what what do you think he means by that? He's got balls big enough that he he'll under anything, John.
SPEAKER_05You know what I mean? He's got busy he got balls. If you got balls, you you know what I mean. You got like uh courage, basically.
SPEAKER_03So what do I mean? Comes in a dump truck.
SPEAKER_05What does that mean? Because he's got balls that big that he fucking ain't scared of fuck all, basically.
SPEAKER_03Oh, I thought it's because he was like um playing with himself in a dump truck. Now, John, you want to bear your eyes, he's got balls big enough to come in a dump truck because there's that much fucking sperm, John.
SPEAKER_05That much sperm on a dump truck in a pill of fucking dump truck because his balls are that big because he's that tough.
SPEAKER_03Well, why don't you just say that in the first place? Why don't you just say that in the first place? I just got a bit confused. It's gonna be that he's gonna be now.
SPEAKER_05And when he sacks him, do we John? He goes, What am I supposed to do now? There's always barber collars.
SPEAKER_03Fucking brilliant. So, yeah, he's so he's such a cruel, I think. He wants to keep them. Now, some of these bounces look like you know, but out of shape, are they? I'm especially the one who's a big ladder. Yeah, and if I was in that bar, I'd just run around the table a couple of times and toy mouth, never catch me. So then the soldier, they open up. Obviously, he kicks off on the first note. Um, they turn up, don't they? Because obviously he's already sacked uh Brad Wesley's nephew. Bit of a scrap in shoes. Dalton gets uh sliced open, so yeah, he goes to uh he goes to the hospital and then there he says his love interest. Uh a doc dock clay, she's called. Yeah, well Elizabeth.
SPEAKER_04Elizabeth.
SPEAKER_03That was nice one. Lord of bloody. You know she was in cocktail, John. What was she in cocktail? She was in cocktail, she was. Oh, she was, yeah, yeah. Yeah, she was. A bit of a bitch in that though, aren't I? Yeah, she had a bit of cocking fucking rowdess. Well, he did have balls big enough to come in a dump truck. We got there. She was the dump truck. So enter the um the movie's protagonist, Brad Wesley. When you see him as a villain, Neil, yeah, he looks about three foot three foot tall. I know. He looks about 90. Yeah, you're thinking he ain't gonna cause Dalton the biggest cooler in the West. Any problems? Slug somewhere slight some just to the other sons arrest by a fucking snow gun. Well, if you look closely at the first scene, you can see a bit of chalk. You see see a bit of chalk, but he's cute in his top pocket. So this Brad Wesley, what is in here? Give me one word. How would you describe Brad Wesley? Brad Redley is just a he's just a bully.
SPEAKER_05But he ain't a bully because he's an odd person, he's that what who's got backed up and he's got the money as well.
SPEAKER_04He's fucking multimillionaire, and he's uh basically he's just a fucking cunt and a coward, I think.
SPEAKER_03Did you just drop the C word for the first time? You mentioned Brad Wesley, John. Flip the screen. Sorry, that's a C bomb, that's our first one. Mark that down, Neil. Sorry, mark that down. Yeah, Brad Wesley is an absolute what. That's even worse, John's not that's a different name for a C U N T. Anyway, he's a he's a Pratt. That's what he is. Oh Pratt is an absolute knob jockey. Yeah, he is. I mean, come on, he he drives down the road like he owns it, yeah. You know, swaying in one lane, swaying in the next, singing his favourite song, which is Shaboom, Shaboom, life is such a dream.
SPEAKER_05From above, he's off.
SPEAKER_03Annie.
SPEAKER_05Life is such a dream, sweetheart.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, he's got an helicopter, um, which he flies around just scaring uh the old farmer's horses. I know, just being a total dickhead, it beats up beats up his missus on a regular basis. Yeah, and Neil, if you remember at the end of the movie, when they go into that room to obviously hunt down Mr. Wesley himself, his room is full of dead animals. Yeah, I mean, you've got heads of animals all over the walls, everywhere. You've even got a walrus, Neil. How the fuck did they get a walrus head in there? I'm sure it's the same room, Ice Ventura too. Ice Ventura in Ice. That's pretty good. Calm down, ladies. Oh, yeah. It was it was the same room, um, Ice Ventura and in Ice Ventura, too. But yeah, he must have been a right bastard. Look at all the animals he's got on his walls, got fucking that much ivory in that room. Jesus, bloody Christ, he's terrible. He's an absolute to what he is. But yeah, but he made the film. Oh, I wouldn't say he made the film. You need people like that in the film, don't I? If he was a nice person, it'd be a shit film, yeah. So basically, the film is just full of um louder scrapping, eh? Yeah, it's basically louder scrapping, louder sex, few few knockers here and there, great one liners, and then you've got Brad Wesley as an absolute toe-wat. Yeah, he even blocks the uh the liquor supplonial, so the double dudes can't get in. Can't even get down more fucking now more now more booze. Remember the uh can they operate? You know that woman that um was after Dalton, you know, the fit one with the big tits.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, was that his relation or his missus, or I can't think now?
SPEAKER_02Um Brad Wesley's. Yeah, the fucking the but the big the blonde with the big tits. He said it's that it's the guy's is his girlfriend, yeah. It's his girlfriend. How the fuck's he pulled those on?
SPEAKER_03Many, many, many but Neil. Apparently, that actress was um Pamela Randerson spunt double. Was he? Apparently, that's what I've heard today. Is that why that is the blogged?
SPEAKER_05You can kiss her for 20 bucks, and he's there going, yeah. He's there going, he's messing with the breast, he's going, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02And the bloke goes, You're gonna kiss them all right. He goes, I can't. He said, Why can't you kiss her? He said, I ain't got 20 bucks.
SPEAKER_03Okay, brilliant, and then it fucking kicks off again. Kicks off again, now yeah, but obviously Dalton only takes the trouble outside unless it's necessary to kick ass inside, especially if they've got a knife or something like that, or one on the shoe, do you honestly that one? Yeah, him on his shoe, yeah. You know, but he drags him outside now, right? Boots, right boots, drags him outside, enter the best curler in the business. He needs the man, the myth, the legend. Jason. He looks about 93, looks like y'all said to me, Sam on crack. Wade Garrett, log stafford, if you're on his long hair, white garrett near.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, hello, Miguel.
SPEAKER_03So, yeah, therefore, he's come down to help Dalton because it's it's all kicking up. Brad Wesley and his goons now wanna wanna just finish the whole town. Yeah, basically, one is he just um he just blew up a Red's house, Red's shop, sorry. Yeah, he's he's gone over to the car dealership and got uh the the uh the Bigfoot car and uh crushed all his car, which we've actually got a picture next to him in um Kissami in Florida. Right, that's not yeah, yeah. And um then he he blows up the farm, Neil. Yeah, he does, which is a shame really because even though here's a thing for you, right? Dalton was earning five hundred dollars a night in 1989, yeah. Right. And when when he went to get them lodgings at the farm, which actually looked pretty sick to be honest, aren't he? His lodgings above that stable, yeah, fan bloody tastic. Now, wonder um Elizabeth Clay got a knickers up in there. Oh, I'd get more up in there as well. You know what I mean? Put a bit of um put a bit of shardet on. I'm all yours, Dalton. I'm all yours. Anyway, when he goes, uh it's gonna be hundred pounds a month, hundred dollars a month, hundred dollars a month, and he Dalton goes, Yeah, uh that's fine. Of course it is, Dalton. You're on five hundred dollars a night, yeah. You greedy bastard, you could have offered him a bit more. I mean, even you get some chicken feet for his chickens or something.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, I'll blank.
SPEAKER_03Do you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_05Anyway, when he's on the phone to um um Gwig, yeah.
SPEAKER_04He's a he's a cooler somewhere else, eh?
SPEAKER_03Is it he's a cooler in a place, but not a strip bar, it's another strip bar, eh?
SPEAKER_05Anyway, what's it like over there? He goes, uh it's pretty rough, man. He goes, there's a sign on the wall of the toilet that says don't eat the big white mint.
SPEAKER_03You know what that means, are you? Well, yeah, I know what it means, Neil. But um do the listeners. Yeah, what it means is you know, if you get to the toilet, you know, men's toilet having a slash, it's usually like a that's a piece, paper.
SPEAKER_05A like that it's like a like a
SPEAKER_03Big white meat, looks like a big white meat.
SPEAKER_05That's the end of the toilet, probably to refresh the toilet, basically.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, this is for all our American listeners, by the way. We're gonna start getting subtitles for Neil. Um you stop slagging me off, John. Because no one's gonna understand a word he's saying. It's as simple as that. So Neil, um, Brad Wesley's got an enforcer, right? Did he link he could bum bum zems? What do you mean? Enforcer now again. The enforcer neil, um uh Jimmy Reno. It sounds like a gambler from Vegas, doesn't it? Jimmy Runo Neil. Now he is he is the bollocks, ain't he? Yeah, he he can fight, he can also dance as well, isn't he? It's pretty cool with the snooker cue. Yeah, he'd probably take you out of town. He'll probably take you out of town at the Sun's Arrest. Um but Neil, that guy can fucking wear denim. Yeah, he can wear denim, he's wearing denim trousers, a denim shirt. If you look close, he's wearing denim socks, yeah, and I'm sure his boots are made of denim. He's a pure denim, he's probably got denim, denham after shave on as well. Do you know what I mean? But yeah, the the uh obviously he he's now uh Dalton's nemesis, they have a bit of a scrap, and Dalton Dalton does what he does best. He fucking kicks his ass, Neil does well, and rips at his throat, just for good measure, yeah. So yeah, Neil Rhodhouse. What a fantastic film. Do you know it's it's it's so cheesy, yeah. It's everything we want in an 80s film. Yeah, alcohol, bars, sex, nudity, swearing, scrapping, explosions, action, bigfoot. Not not the bigfoot, I mean the car, big foot, you know. What more do you want in a film, Neil? You missed a few things. Go on then. Sayings, John. Oh, quote one liners, yeah, quotable one-liners, quotable sayings. Absolutely bloody fantastic. What would you give that on a flip screen rating now? Fucking hell, John. You know how good it you know well, oh I'll give that a nine and a half. Nine point five. Yeah, that's a very, very good film. I love it, John. It is, it's an amazing film. It's one of them films, right, when there's nothing on the tele and you don't want to watch any of these new shit films, none of this woke bollocks, you want to just go back for a bit of nostalgia, a bit of where you you know, you can just take your brain out, take your brain out, put on roadhouse, watch it all the way through, and it it even gets to a stage where right at the end, when uh Jeff Hill is playing the guitar on his lap, yeah, where he where the bar ain't got the chicken water up no more. You're like, oh, I don't want it to end yet. Yeah, and I feel like I'm in the in the bar. It's like last orders has been has been called, but I don't want to go home. Yeah, I don't want to go, I don't want to turn it off. It's that fucking good. I absolutely love Rod Earth now. I would give that a solid eight point out of ten.
SPEAKER_05Eight point eight.
SPEAKER_03It's got everything, it's got great music, it has as well, you know. Knock on wood, John.
SPEAKER_05You bear a knock on wood. That's on it's in the films, please.
SPEAKER_03That bird with uh dog hair. Yeah, and she loves uh Dalton's horse as well, doesn't she? Yeah, she loves Dalton's. Well, we all do, I suppose. Oh yeah, rest rest in peace, Patrick. Have some of that.
SPEAKER_05He died of pancreatic cancer as well. Gone too soon, Neil. Brad Wesley, did he? Yeah, same thing, yeah.
SPEAKER_03No, the actor. Yeah, yeah, in real life. Shame. So obviously the cast, it starred Swamize, Sam Elliott, Kelly Lynch as the love interest, and um Ben Gazara, who was Brad Wesley, it grossed 30 million in the US, 30 million internationally, so it grossed 61 million dollars, Neil. For a film would probably only cost about 10. Yeah, and then they've done a remaker with Diary. Well, we'll get to that in a minute, Neil. We'll get to that in a bloody minute. But first, Neil, Rhodeist trivia, before we get on to uh the last parts of the uh the podcast.
SPEAKER_04I might be a bit rushing here for a long while.
SPEAKER_03Well, this is Neil, this is trivia, it's a quiz. Oh um, do you know Swayze when it when he was given the script? Yeah he classed uh Rodehouse as a modern day Western. And you can kind of understand that, can't you? Oh yeah. You know, you got the saloon, which is the double deuce, you've got like um like a strange cowboy coming into town to like stop the trouble. Brad Wesley's like one wouldn't say the sheriff, but he's like the local dickhead. Yeah, do you know what I mean? You know, you've got bars and fighting and glasses, like a proper Western Barnes there as well, Barnes horses. Exactly, that's what it is. It's like a like a modern day Western. Um Swayze and Marshall, Marshall is the actor who played uh Jimmy Reno. Yeah, um, they both went for it in that big fight at the end. Yeah, you know, they didn't use stunt the wolf, they just kicked shit out of each other for hours and hours and hours for take for take for take. Now there's a scene where someone throws a log, I think Jimmy Reno throws a log at Dalton, and it was supposed to like look like it was hitting his leg, and it was supposed to be a like a fake leg for not special effects back in the day. Now CGI people, but obviously it just cracked Swineze's legs, um, which fucked his knee up big time. And they keep the the Michael people keep after keep putting makeup on on Patrick Swise to cover up all the bruises because they were just kicking shit out of each other, you know. That that is like movies back in the day, that's the way it should be. None of these fucking CGI bollocks. Now, because of his knee nail, Swisey after uh Rodehouse was offered um the part of uh tango in tango and cash. Oh yeah, he turned it down. He was also offered a part in Predator 2, again, he turned it down in favour of the film Ghost. Yeah, and the reason being is because he saw the script for Ghost, and he goes, Well, there's no fighting in this, you know what I mean? I ain't I ain't gonna um hurt myself, and plus my knee is absolutely fucked, and he kept having I kept having like fluid drained out of his knee, his knee was fucked up that bad. When it's in the script, it's in Debbie Moore was in his Debbie Moore anyway. Um the band plan at the start, like I mentioned, uh, was the Crossados. Now, after the band had disbanded, lead singer Tito Larisa formed the band Tito and Tarantula. The band Tito and Tarantula was the band in the movie Dust or Dawn.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_03And when the did now, Dust or Dawn, the title is a bit like Roadhouse, isn't it? Yeah, it is. Do you know what I mean? There's there's very there's some similarities there. So Marshall, um Marshall T who played a Jimmy Reno, right? There's a scene when they're fighting um Patrick Swazi and uh Reno, right? And for some reason, out of the blue, Swayze's on the floor, and then Jimmy leans over and goes, uh, I used to fuck boys like you in prison. Yeah, in jail, kind of thing. And uh apparently when it was being played at the cinema, his mother was in the audience and she jumped up and goes, That's my boy. I mean, why would you say that anyway? The dirty guess. The dirty get. I think you would. So do you know the uh the character uh I think he run the um but the uh the hardware store?
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Red. Yeah, red west. Yeah, oh sorry, he plays the autopards dealer, apparently. Um now Rowdy Harrington found him to be a fascinating guy. He had been good friends with Elvis Presley, he knew martial arts and worked as Elvis Presley's bodyguard.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, yeah, bloody red, red west. There's martial arts, yeah.
SPEAKER_03Elvis his mate. He could be um now. It was Sam Elliott's idea who played uh Wide Garrett to come up with a nickname for Dalton, which is uh Hey, a meal, which is a contradiction to the Spanish word me, he jo, which means my son. Yeah, yeah. So there you go, another little thingy for you. And have you ever watched the uh the Family Guy um episode? Rodehouse. No. Basically, um Peter Griffin just says Rodeuse starts kicking people. Rodehouse, it's it's a very very famous um uh episode of Family Guy. I've only watched clips, but uh Luke and uh the Riddler was telling me about it the other day, and he just keeps sending me little memes about Rhode House. Fair bloody plionil. Now, talking of the Riddler, right? His good friend, um, his compatriot, uh Mr. Seth Constance Constantine, the Yorkshire Exorcist, which is he is a uh like a a friend of the show, don't you think?
SPEAKER_04Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_03Well, guess what? Isn't he gonna s me um another movie rant on the film Roundhouse?
SPEAKER_04Do you like anything, John? He loves films.
SPEAKER_03Well, you know he does, Neil. We always fucking ranting about him, John. Well, Neil, he loved the Warriors and he loved the Wanderers. So let's let's listen, people, to see what he's gotta say about Roudhouse.
SPEAKER_00No, that's a film that understands the fundamental truth of the world. Most problems can be solved by a bloke in a tight t-shirt with a philosophy degree and a very high pain threshold. It's a five-star masterpiece of bouncer ballet. You've got Patrick Swayze, God rest his soul, playing Dalton, the best cowler in the business. He doesn't just throw people out, it tells them why they're being thrown out with a bit of Zen wisdom. I tried that at the Parish Hall Disco. I told a lad, expect the unexpected, right before I clipped him round the air for spelling inside. Didn't have the same effect, but he stopped dancing, didn't he? No. Let's get to the important bit. Kelly Lynch. She plays the doctor, Elizabeth. She's the only one in that entire town with a lick of sense. She's intelligent, she's got that look of someone who's seen it all, and she doesn't put up with any flonnel. When she's on screen, I find myself forgetting about the ghost in the council tax for five minutes. She's got that no nonsense energy that's very rare these days. If she'd been a GP in jewelry, the waiting rooms would be packed with blokes, suddenly developing a cuff just for an excuse to see her. She's the art of the film. The last she puts up with Dalton living in a barn and bleeding on a cap, it'll never know. A woman like that deserves a man with a proper house and a damp roof course. Then you've got Bradwithley, the local bigwig, who thinks he owns the town because he's got an helicopter and a shopping mall. He's a classic daft epit. Almouth in no trousers, stuck in her own like his king of the nervous. If that lad showed up in a chippy and Joe's wheel asset in that acting like his god's gift, it wouldn't last the length of a fortune squaps. And I'd be standing there, waiting for me like addict, and look him up and down, the tan, the smoke grin, that I'm better than your attitude. I wouldn't waste my breath on the coldest pitch. I'd reach over the counter, grab the janjamin pickled eggs, the one with the vinegar, which is a suspicious shade of yellow, and I'd swing it with the first forty years of his first frustration. And I'd across the side of his head. He'd be on the floor covered in brine and rubbery eggs, wondering where his helicopter went. Rod house is a reminder that Avel isn't always from a demon from a pit. Sometimes it's just a bloke in a polo shirt who thinks he's special, and the only cure for that is a good bouncer and a lady doctor who knows how to stitch up afterwards.
SPEAKER_03So there you go, Neil. He's growing on me, so tell you. I think he should have his own TV. Show him all, Neil. Do you know what I mean? He should, he should, he should have the lot. But like you say, people, like I said before, check out our channel because um Mr. Seth Constantine has his own little videos also on the channel, um, where we put a little video to his uh his his little run. So have some a bloody that, Neil. Fan bloody that's the one. Talking about friends of the show, Neil. We got another friend at the show, right there, kid. Yeah, yeah. We've got another friend of the show. Now, our good friend, Dead Ed, he's uh part of our paralytic activities um page. He's our spirit guide from the other side, and he also um kind of messes around with uh dead celebrities, which I mean by dead celebrities, celebrities that have passed on. Now, Neil, he's been talking. Let me keep in you white, Neil. No, um now we've been um he's been talking to a friend of the show who's a dead celebrity. Have a guess who have a guess who we got, Neil. Come on. Uh have a guess who we got.
SPEAKER_04Um let me have a guess. Have we been on before, John?
SPEAKER_03Well, Neil, if you remember, I did say it's at the start of the show. But but but there you go. We made a cup of tea. So yeah, our good friend Brian Glover Neil from the film American Werewolf in London. He is still stuck in purgatory at uh the slaughtered lamb. That's where he is, Neil. He's still with Gladys, he's still with um Rick Mail, and he's still with the guy who misses the dartboard, and his good friendly werewolf is mate Winston. So Neil, deadhead has only got me uh a voice from Beyond the Vale. Good. So it does sound a bit a bit um skittish because it it is like from uh a different uh a realm to ours, but we're gonna I'm gonna play it anyway, Neil. See what he's got, I'll say. He kept looking at me like what Neil, it's come from the other side, from another realm. He sounded like he was in a tin. Yeah, well, he is in a tin, Neil. He's in his crypt, Neil, from from beyond the veil. Seems happy enough. He's over the room, Neil. He is our good friend Brian Glover, all the way up from the slaughtered lamb, Neil. You don't get better than that. You don't get better than that. Uh, one little thing, Neil. We're gonna quickly do our last section before we wrap the show up. Um, Neil, guess the shit title. Now, there's so many shit films out there, and there's so many shit films with shit titles, and so Neil has not got a clue about any of them. Do you know what I mean? So, Neil, um tonight's film. I want you to give me a synopsis on what you think this film is about. It is called Trog. It's a 1970 horror sci-fi trog. Neil, what's it about? Um I've never heard of the word trog, John. Have you not? No, trog. So, what do you think it's about? He said, I don't know, it's about a killer killer frog. I don't know. Trog, is it by Troy? Um John, just think Trog Neil, what would you think it's about if you saw in a film called Trog? Oh John, I don't know what a trog is. And you've been with a few.
SPEAKER_05I don't know what a trog is, John. Um it's a stupid word, really. Who put to that shit? I don't know. What stupid we'll tell you what, we'll do a film, right?
SPEAKER_03We'll spend fucking millions on it and we'll call it trog. I don't know if they spent millions on it. I don't know. 1970, I doubt it. Oh well, probably cost about 150 quid and uh as much as much beer as you can drink. I don't know. Basically, the storyline is anthropo anthropologist Dr. Brockt unearths a troglodote. A troglodite is a is basically an ice age missing link. It's like half man, half ape. So it's a caveman, basically, yeah, a troglodot, and she manages to domesticate him so we can do the washing up, do the hoovering. Met the beds, so we trains him, met the beds and stuff like that. Basically, so she got a caveman in her house called Trog, Troglodores, and she trains him to be domesticated, basically. But he goes, Fuck this, I've had enough. So he goes on a rampage and starts killing people. I've had enough of this shit. I ain't gonna be in house, but I'm not gonna be Mrs. Doubtfire. I'm a bastard caveman. I'm gonna go and do what cavemen do. So he eats people out there with a club, blood Captain Caveman, a chocolate bar, so you got and the actress never never watching film again. So yeah, Neil, that's shit. Yeah, yeah. That is Trog Neil. So there you go. So Neil Roadhouse done a remake in uh 20 2024, Neil. 2024. How do you think it compared to the original? Nowhere in Asia. Even though I thought, um, what's his name?
SPEAKER_05Oh the uh WW fucking Connor McGregor. Conor McGregor. I thought he played a decent part, to be honest.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_05I was very surprised.
SPEAKER_03He was he was more comedic, he he was too cheesy, he was too uh cartoon character. That's what he was like, very cartoonish, don't you think? Just being everything, but everything was just everything was just overacted, wasn't it? Let's be honest, from Connor McGregor. But um, I d I don't know who was doing his uh his clothes, but it looked like his shirt and trousers was covered in starch because he was walking like this, wasn't he? You know what I mean? Like a space invader. I enjoyed the film, not gonna lie. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed it, but the biggest thing is obviously I like Jay Gill and all anyway. Um, I think he he played a really good role. I wouldn't mess with him, to be honest. Um, the fight scenes were pretty good, it was it was you know, but it was just like it was so over the top. It was it wasn't it it roadhouse original couldn't go over the top because it was cheesy, yeah. It never took itself seriously. This kind of took itself seriously, apart from the the character by uh Conor McGregor. But the biggest thing what they missed out on is that they should have just not named it Rodehouse. If they would have named it something like, you know, the bouncer or the cooler, yeah, or something like that, or something to do with a different bar, people would have enjoyed it better. Yeah, because it's it's not linked to Rodehouse, and that was the biggest missed out. They should not have linked it to Rodehouse at all. No one's Dalton, there's only Swazie who can get away with Dalton, even though he's got hair like a girl, and um but the women logs are though. Oh, they did, yeah, without a doubt. He was the best cooler in the business. So Nil, what would you give the um the remake out of ten in the uh the flip the screen writing? Seven. Seven, I'd probably give it a six, yeah. Seven out of ten. Because as as soon as you put it on, you expect you know to have little flashbacks from the from the original, and it just never happened, didn't you? It never happened, and yeah, I was left disappointed for the simple fact it should have been called something totally different to Mario's, it wouldn't have been so bad then. Yeah, could it call it yeah, I'd have watched it, I would have said, Yeah, good film. Nine nine out of ten. Have some of bloody that on that bombshell there, people. We're gonna wrap up um this uh this podcast. Like I said before, um, please uh tell your friends, tell your enemies if you want to like and subscribe to Title Tube, but you know, it helps it helps us, it helps us helps us um grow, helps the channel, and you know what I mean? Because we are still finding our feet within the movie realm, yeah, coming back from the spooks and stuff like that. Um, but like you say, we are close to a thousand subscribers. That'll be a nice little milest milestone, Neil. Like nice little milestone. So on that bombshell there, I'm just gonna play our little uh outro music and Neil.
SPEAKER_05Oh no, John, I'll try to quickly say it's all gone I've gone from Patrick Swayze, John. Yeah, to Patrick Shiny now. You have yeah, my brother and his wife, and Patrick is shiny.
SPEAKER_03Is that he? Yeah, okay. Um, yeah, so uh anyway, happy mother's day to all your mothers out there. Rest in peace, mother. Love ya, mother. Um so there you go, Neil. I'm just gonna play the music. Yeah. Say it to Rob, will you? See you next time.
