A polite knock. A perfect harmony. A smile that asks, not forces. That’s where this vampire story sinks its teeth: on the threshold where fear becomes a choice. We pick up part two of our centers breakdown and dig into why the smartest bloodsuckers don’t need to break doors—they make you open them. From the “let me in” dance to that unnerving song at the stoop, we map how social pressure, charm, and ritual turn hospitality into horror.

We unpack haints, folk beliefs, and the power of naming. Calling a thing “haint” or “vampire” shifts the playbook, and this story plays the gray zone well. The crew’s confidence flips genre expectations, dialing down jump scares and dialing up moral tension. When your protagonists keep their cool, the threat has to evolve—so it does, mocking the sinner’s prayer, reciting scripture like a dare, and performing piety as a weapon. That choice reframes faith and fear as contested symbols, not automatic protections.

We also weigh hive minds, corrupted souls, and charisma-driven evil. Is the group truly linked, or is one will simply louder, bending others toward harm in the name of belonging? That lens explains why the villain wants a voice more than blood—humanity as an instrument is the prize. Along the way, we connect the dots across vampire canon—Underworld, Blade, Van Helsing, 30 Days of Night—and talk true forms, Nosferatu echoes, and why this movie’s scariest moment is still the courteous, rhythmic ask to come inside.

If you love smart horror, folklore, and rule-tight storytelling, you’ll want to jump in. Hit play, then tell us: which vampire rule would you keep, change, or kill? Subscribe, share with a friend who loves creature features, and leave a review so more horror fans can find us. Stay alive.

Part Two Kicks Off

SPEAKER_01

Hello, survivors, and welcome back to another episode of Will You Survive the Podcast. This is part two of our centers episode. If you have not seen part one, go listen to that now. It's a pretty good one. And yeah, let's get right into the episode, baby.

SPEAKER_03

But were they?

SPEAKER_01

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Because I think it was just a bluff. I think it would it did exactly what he was hoping it would do. Yeah. It would make her freak out and let them make it. I feel like it was a half bluff.

SPEAKER_01

Like I don't doubt it that he would go into town and get more and then come back.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, they they would have done it, and then how vicious would that have been to make her daughter come back and have her see her like that?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I mean, she already got her fucking husband taken, so they were all right there.

SPEAKER_03

So I don't know.

Bluff Or Real Threat?

SPEAKER_01

I didn't get the impression that they literally would have been fine if they just didn't invite them in.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, well, I so I think the whole point of like my whole thought was like there was a much better way to handle this. You have a very unique advantage here in that they can't come in without you letting them in. And I I think it it's it was really great that the vampire was playing such psychological warfare on them to try and get them to let him in. Because at first, you know, I was thinking like, well, they said no, now what? You know, now what do you do? But then he kept amping it up and doing more things. I'm like, oh, that's kind of where I got like the detail. I also need a spin-off for the Native Americans. Manipulative as hell. Like, I uh completely understand that. Um so I I just think that was a really nice touch because I think that is kind of more of the essence of what a vampire is. Like a manipulator.

SPEAKER_01

Dude, native Native American vampire hunters would be a dope ass fucking movie.

SPEAKER_03

They did Abe Lincoln Vampire Hunter.

SPEAKER_01

Don't don't fucking bring that shit up.

SPEAKER_03

Incredible.

SPEAKER_01

How dare you bring this up in a house of worship?

SPEAKER_02

I love that. How do you not like that movie?

SPEAKER_01

I actually have not seen it since it came out, so I don't know. I don't even remember shit about it.

SPEAKER_03

I wasn't actually kidding. I actually do like that movie. I don't think it's like an incredible, amazing movie, but it's campy.

SPEAKER_02

It's like um Is it even campy? It's over-exaggerated.

SPEAKER_03

Um well, yeah. Did you uh so I don't think Abe Lincoln was actually a vampire hunter?

SPEAKER_02

No, no, but everything that they did was all over-exaggerated. It was the vampire tropes were over-exaggerated. It wasn't as um authentic as this movie, even though this movie really did sidestep the horror genre by being so funny all the time, and of course, having uh characters who didn't seem to really be afraid at any point of their enemies, like they were ready to to charge in. Anytime your protagonist is unafraid, you're gonna be unafraid.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, do you see how quick he blasted fucking cornbread's face off? Dude, with the quickness. Also, cornbread with his I you know, I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

I think it's kind of it's a kind of unique situation when when like a character, when your main protagonist is super confident and and kind of a badass. It's just like the way I think about it is like uh you know, the heart of the fall, right? So that's kind of my thought. It's like, you know, when they're showing that side of them, like, well, you're showing me this for a reason, you're gonna contrast this with something. Obviously, something's gonna happen. And so in the end, you know, m most of the time in movies, you're like, oh my god, is the main character gonna die? And then you're like, well, of course the main character's not gonna die.

SPEAKER_01

Technically, both the main characters are dead.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, so that's why I'm like it they they really do an interesting way of doing it.

SPEAKER_01

Um they would have been cooked if Annie wasn't there.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, okay. That was something I wanted to bring up. I love that they knew what a vampire was.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

They stay clear of the zombie trope of like the these uh these they're like dead walking Z and like what zombies.

SPEAKER_01

Like in uh we just watched Sean of the Dead. Don't say that. The Z word. We're not saying that word, don't say the Z word.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah, like that it's crazy to me that like uh World War Z is I think one of one of the mention it in the movie when they're like uh one memo floated the word zombie, and that's all they really mentioned of it in uh and then the soldier yelled at him.

SPEAKER_02

It wasn't a memo so much for paying attention, it was an email.

SPEAKER_01

Careful, there are a bunch of bonks outside, dude. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

So one of the aspects of these vampires is see, because didn't Annie think it was something else?

SPEAKER_01

So Annie thought that it was a haint. Yeah, hanks? A haint is like kind of like a from what I understand, it's like a spirit, but like evil. It's kind of made from people's like bad thoughts, I think.

SPEAKER_03

Was she they they kept calling her the AIN WHAT?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. So in New Orleans, they paint their uh porches. Fun fact, they paint their porches a certain color to keep haints away.

SPEAKER_02

So it's restless spirits trapped between the living world and the afterlife. Yeah, and they're restless, also known as a restless entity that lingers to haunt the living. That's their sole purpose.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I love that she clocked right away. She's like, You're something as soon as as soon as I saw the guy, uh Ramick fly towards Mary, I I knew she was infected right away. I knew she didn't get away. And then when she walked up, I clocked right. Right away that she didn't just walk in. She asked. Yeah, well, just how subtly she asked to be let in. And at first you're like, oh, you could totally see this being like kind of very yeah, very casual, and like you wouldn't really think anything of it. And then you saw um who was it? Uh who is the bouncer? Cornbread. Well, where cornbread was not no, he wasn't slick with it.

SPEAKER_01

She was slick. She was like, So you're gonna go move your big ass so I can get in? He was like, Oh yeah, sure, get in.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, and he was like, Oh yeah, yeah, go go on in. Go but yeah, he wasn't so spoon, yeah. All right, just just let me in and and let me have it.

SPEAKER_01

Like, let me in so we can do what we need to do. It's like, what do we need to do?

SPEAKER_03

Why do I gotta let you in?

Vampires As Master Manipulators

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, you've been coming in here all damn night. Why do you need let in now?

SPEAKER_03

I clocked, I clocked immediately. I I heard it with Mary right away. I was like, uh and that's when like I said, I knew it was about vampires. I just didn't know who was vampires yet. I at this point I knew Rami and those three were, but pick poor robin clock. Right away, I clocked the whole robin cloud.

SPEAKER_02

So there's another point. See, the song that song had such different meaning when they were asking to come in and after. Holy moly. I I mean, I knew that they were vampires, and it was creepy, but the way that they were singing, you have to admit there was something different from before and after.

SPEAKER_01

Dude. That was such a fucking vicious slight songs.

SPEAKER_03

I'm not gonna lie.

SPEAKER_01

Them dancing was kinda is wild. I feel like that would freak me the fuck out. They're over here having an Irish jig outside.

SPEAKER_03

I'm not gonna lie, it was bang.

SPEAKER_02

It was so the other thing was how uh I'm gonna say I'm gonna say God, this is so subjective, it's hard to say this right. How accurate that these corrupted souls would repeat the sinner's prayer as he's saying the prayer, and they all just start saying it.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, which I I again, that mental manipulation is like so demonic to to mock the God's word right back to you. And I I knew I kind of I wanted to talk to you about this, but I kind of figure like Satan even spoke uh or cited the Bible. He quoted scripture to Jesus, he quoted scripture, so it's not like it we him saying it or the words being sane are gonna burst him into flames and and send him away.

SPEAKER_02

It's not very compelling opinion.

SPEAKER_03

Is it does the power of Christ compel me? It's not very compelling.

SPEAKER_02

It's the uh you can't see that I'm smiling under here.

SPEAKER_03

I love that movie.

SPEAKER_02

I guess I'm always smiling. Um something that is controversial to a lot of people who don't know is uh churches everywhere are full of demons. Yeah, that's where they're going to be hanging out.

SPEAKER_03

Even in the even in the Bible, they were in this Jesus had to cast out uh people from the temple because they were fucking evil.

SPEAKER_01

But that was if you just put twenty more dollars in that collection plate. Uh this bently up on stage, it's for all of us. Can I drive it? No, God wouldn't want that. God wouldn't want that. I've just seen a that video dude saying that. I gotta send it to you. That's so funny.

SPEAKER_03

That's so funny.

SPEAKER_02

God wouldn't want this Bentley to corrupt your soul.

SPEAKER_01

He has like chains and shit on it.

SPEAKER_02

The way that the way that they did that, it was so impressive. I'm I I really blew my mind at the total corruption, which once again, this this in my head validates Maddie's perspective and her point. It's a corrupted soul, it's not a departed soul, it's not an empty husk. It has to be a corrupted soul. That makes so much sense. Which I believe they do. I know that they went heavily on the my the hive mind, but see, after they accomplish their goal in this particular scenario, my bet is that they go off on their own. They don't they don't stay together like that.

SPEAKER_03

Well, so here's where I can I can maybe bolster your guys' aside, and what I think is ultimately right, but uh I think what bolsters it is that you know how there's certain personalities in people that are just very powerful and very persuasive.

SPEAKER_00

Yep.

SPEAKER_03

Um and sometimes it could be just so much emotion that it kind of overwhelms you and you start to kind of believe certain things that you might not otherwise believe.

SPEAKER_00

Yep.

SPEAKER_03

Um I I wonder if it was kind of that if they are all hive-minded, that maybe his will, his um his rationale, his thinking is so pervasive and and persuasive that he's able to kind of convince all these people to act very violent and maliciously towards people that they love. Yeah, all uh uh in like this guise of oh, it's for their own good.

Fearless Protagonists And Tone

SPEAKER_02

I I I definitely think so. I think that could be that could very well be uh one of the perspectives of it is I keep wanting to say carnality, but that's not the word I'm looking for, not carnivorous, uh, but it's just such such hatred. It's so vile and it like defies all all humanity. There's no humanity there. That's what I say. A zombie is a human without a soul, without and a human without a soul is remorseless, without forgiveness, without compassion, without any restraint. I mean, you think of the seven deadly sins in the Bible, right? Take somebody, any person, and have them exhibit pure animal tendencies, and you got a zombie eating, feeding off of it doesn't even have to be literal eating, right? Just just feeding off of others with no restraint and no, there's no filling this person, they're not capable. And we see it, you look around in the world, the the worst people that have ever existed are those things, even though they're not necessarily empty husks, they are more like this, they're more like corrupted souls than they are an empty husk. But if you look at every zombie movie with all of the tropes, that's what an empty husk would look like.

SPEAKER_01

This is different. Ramick was after more intelligent, you know, there's all the lack of humanity on his part. He's after like the humanity, he's after fucking Preacher Boy's voice, his ability to bring that humanity because he misses his people.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I I mean it so when I first put on this movie, I I told myself I was like, okay, I have to do other things while I while I start this movie, but I'm gonna pay attention. Immediately, the the woman started talking in the beginning, the narrator, two words in, I immediately zoned out, like 50 seconds later. I'm like, fuck. So I had to rewind, and I was like, okay, I'm gonna pay attention now. And then I immediately got distracted, and I had to re-watch that opening like seven times to finally hear what she said.

SPEAKER_01

It's it's semi-important. They do really reiterate it when he's uh he's singing.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

So something that you were saying right now, uh, and just this past comment got me thinking the lore goes so deep that there were other types of vampires. Uh, for instance, there was a movie made in 2002 starring Aaliyah called Queen of the Damned that portrayed the Queen Akasha, who made Lestat her king. Lestat was another well-known vampire for a long time, and she was so bloodthirsty that she even fed on other vampires. Now, they always make these these movies like this where the vampires somehow made a truce with mankind. I don't know who, where, what, when, why, how. It it doesn't really make sense when you think of who they are. Why would they make some truce?

SPEAKER_03

Unless, like, maybe there's ulterior motives to it.

SPEAKER_02

Well, then you go even into Van Helsing, right? And Van Helsing, the one with um Hugh Jackman, he goes into Transylvania, uh, Romania, and kills one of the brides of Dracula, and they were pissed, right? They were like, We've only ever killed what we needed to feed. And that's what even the villagers were pissed off at Van Helsing for killing a bride, because it was like, now they're gonna come with vengeance. You know, they've only taken what they needed to eat to live, and which is kind of a weird way to say that, right? What they needed to subsist, and now they're gonna come for revenge, and it's it was true, but that's like an interesting perspective all on its own in the vampire trope that you don't know which one is which. I would think that uh which one was the vampire stack. I would think that stack was kind of in this realm, and to follow that lore, you would go through some of the movies like um Underworld.

SPEAKER_03

That's the one I kept thinking of.

SPEAKER_02

Which they were more they were more free thinking than they were, but they all still had that same hive mind. Blade two. Blade two. They all had some kind of a hive mind where they it was almost not even hive mind-ish. This was more hive mind, clearly. But in Blade and Underworld, they didn't necessarily feel each other's pain, except for when you got to blade three, they literally did. It was the one who turned them, would uh actually, how did they do it? How did they do it? They injected they injected Dracula, who they called Drake, with a with a virus, and the virus, the virus, because of his pure blood, was able to spread to all of the other vampires in his area. So they broke from the mold that if you kill the daddy of all of the vampires, they all die. It was pretty close, but not exact. And they even mention uh Bram Stoker's Dracula in that movie quite a lot.

SPEAKER_03

I could rewatch those movies. I haven't seen those in a really long time.

SPEAKER_02

That's I mean, it's funny that that TJ picked this one because I just watched uh Blade 3, uh Van Helsing, um Underworld, which is always great to watch.

SPEAKER_03

I think the strain has a very interesting take on vampires.

SPEAKER_02

That's a TV show, right?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, and a book. It's more of a it's more of a monster than uh like it emphasis on the creature.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_01

We uh what's it? We also haven't even mentioned fucking Remick's true form once he gets hit with the guitar with the long fingers and shit and his fucking rows of teeth that go back. I wonder what if if he can like transform into like a man bat. I feel like that's where that's heading. That's interesting. I feel like he could turn man bat.

SPEAKER_03

That look that he had felt very vampire-esque. Like that's what I imagine. That's very like Nosferatu type, like hideous. Yeah, I imagine like monster.

SPEAKER_02

Well, that's where that's where the the movie Van Helsing did a good job because when Dracula transformed, he was a monster. He was like a giant man bat. Which now I I really want to go back and read those books because all of the movies lead to the same ending where the werewolf was the ultimate weapon against Dracula, which was why he enslaved them all of the time.

SPEAKER_03

Tale as old as time.

SPEAKER_02

That's a weird one.

SPEAKER_03

And we're talking about like vampires and beauty and the beast.

SPEAKER_02

Which one's the beauty? Remek.

SPEAKER_03

Vampire, hey.

SPEAKER_02

Interesting. And then Beast, werewolf. Oh, he really did.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, that's kind of like a whole trope of the vampires that they're super seducing and enticing.

SPEAKER_02

No, Remek was like in Twilight.

SPEAKER_01

She ended up fucking that one.

SPEAKER_02

He was crazy. How he stands there with that smile.

SPEAKER_03

That was I'm not gonna lie, that first song that they played at the door, fuck, I don't let him.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, no, you'd see fucking uh stack. He was like bobbing his head.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, smoke was wiser and was like, no, get out of here. Because he he had it for other reasons where he was like, What? They don't have a problem now, but let's say they do have a problem, then then these three white people have a problem in a black establishment.

SPEAKER_02

Somebody steps on their foot. That was brilliant reasoning.

SPEAKER_03

No, we're not gonna fucking risk that. There's no point to that. When he said that, I'm like, that makes sense.

SPEAKER_01

Did Remedy when uh he was like, you know, let us in, whatever. And they're like, oh fuck you. And then he's like, Well, how'd she get in?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And look, I'm not gonna lie, I feel like that wasn't even manipulation. I felt like he was just like, I was like, What the fuck, dude? Is it just me? Put the vampire shit aside. What the fuck?

SPEAKER_02

WTF dog. Which I think that was pretty funny.

SPEAKER_03

I also like how Annie stepped in and was like, she's family.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, Mary Mary Mary's uh character. That's uh actual thing. It's the one drop rule. As long as you got one drop of blackness in you, you're considered black.

SPEAKER_03

True. So that's that's why he wanted to uh twenty one in me, it's gonna make everybody black.

SPEAKER_01

That's why uh stack wanted to keep her away. He was like, I got you a nice white husband and some fucking land or whatever, go back to our fucking. Arkansas because she's in she's in danger. Like if anybody knows that.

SPEAKER_02

No, that's the uh that's the ultimate uh white supremacist rule. Anybody you have any drop, one drop, you're black. That's funny.

SPEAKER_01

One drop, you're white.

SPEAKER_02

People like Officer Tatum say I'm biracial, my kids are biracial, not him, not him. His kids are biracial, and they get mad at him. Like, no, you're black. He goes, That that comes from white supremacy.

SPEAKER_01

Also, don't call me fucking biracial. Say mixed. I'm not fucking logical. You're bi. You're bi. Did I mention I'm biracial?

SPEAKER_03

Wait. What if what if you that'd be so funny if we just started calling biracial people bi?

SPEAKER_02

I'm not gonna call you biracial. I'm just gonna call you bi from now on.

SPEAKER_03

That'd be so funny. But yeah, logic really does mention that in like every other and his dad's like half.

SPEAKER_01

Motherfucker ain't biracial. He's like he's he's like trira. Yeah, triracial. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

That was like that's the true meaning of mixed. Bro's quasi-racial.

SPEAKER_01

Quasi-racial. That's a band name. Quasimoto. There you go. We are quasi-racial.

SPEAKER_03

One, two, three, four. Literally in one of his songs, Logic goes, did I mention I'm mixed like Obama?

SPEAKER_01

He's not. So okay, but he's half of Obama.

SPEAKER_02

But here hear me out. Hear me out. You and Eric and anybody else starts the band quasi-racial, and the first song you come out playing has to be uh Duhast by Rammstein. That would be the greatest opening. Oh my god, you don't know Rammstein?

SPEAKER_03

You just said the craziest mix of songs.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, he I can't believe you guys don't know that.

SPEAKER_03

Have you heard of La Ham by by Brockstein? And I'm like, what the fuck? Du Hast, that's not any better.

unknown

Dude.

SPEAKER_02

Who's Eifen? Who's Ethan?

SPEAKER_03

Nine.

SPEAKER_02

Well, but that's what that's what makes it so funny. They're a German band to have you guys play qua uh quasi-racial play.

SPEAKER_01

It's it's it's time. It is time. Fuck off. It's time, you sleepy heads.

SPEAKER_03

I just don't know the I don't know the reference.

SPEAKER_01

I'm trying to think of any more last minute things about this movie that I can think of.

SPEAKER_03

I think it was overall a really, really good one.

SPEAKER_01

Sad about a really great one from the sad about Smoke's daughter dying, little baby, but he got to be with her and um he did die after he took off his you know whatever mojo bag.

SPEAKER_02

Um clearly he wanted to.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, so he he definitely wanted to, he definitely did die.

SPEAKER_02

Um oh clearly he believed in the power of the mojo bag.

SPEAKER_01

What's his name? Uh Preacher Boy, he's based off of uh Buddy. He's based off of a musician.

SPEAKER_03

Well, yeah, buddy guy.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, the guy who played him is the actual like dude.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, he's an actual musician, which is cool.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, cool.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I think it's Buddy Guy.

SPEAKER_01

You know, was he the old guy? Yeah, you know he was getting bitches with that scar. That was kind of that was a cool ass scar, dude. Every dude wants that kind of scar.

SPEAKER_02

That was a gnarly scar.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, buddy guy.

SPEAKER_01

Shout out Buddy Guy, shout out Ryan Cooler for making this movie. It was great. Shout out Ludwig Gorenson for uh doing the music for this movie. Shout out to Preacher Boy's actor. Loved it. Can't remember his name. He's an actual artist. Um, he did not know how to play guitar.

SPEAKER_03

Born in 1936.

SPEAKER_01

Dang. Nice.

SPEAKER_02

So I wanted to come in really hot, sounding like I I hated this movie, but I didn't give it enough thought. So that's why I like it.

SPEAKER_01

Listen, I I like I like talking about movies that we like this good.

SPEAKER_02

This is a good, this is a really good movie. I'm so glad I got to do this movie.

SPEAKER_01

I'm fucking it's I've been wanting to do it, and then I'm just like, no, we should do a different movie.

SPEAKER_02

I'm a fan. I'm a fan.

SPEAKER_01

But you know, we did uh what's it called? 28 years later or whatever the fuck. So that was a new movie.

SPEAKER_02

Should we be um oh sorry why it was so loud. I was like, I've never heard it that loud before.

SPEAKER_03

No, a train decided to pass and it is like, what are you honking at?

SPEAKER_01

You're on a track. There's nothing in front of you.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, what are you surprised?

SPEAKER_01

What did somebody swerve in front of you? Just run the homeless people over.

SPEAKER_02

The homeless are climbing onto the tracks.

SPEAKER_01

No, they're move your tents. They're on the train.

SPEAKER_02

So the um what is the what is the other like my I think the closest thing to this I would probably say would be 30 days of night. Just pure viciousness, pure corrupted monsters. I I think that's the closest thing.

SPEAKER_03

Who was the the old dude again? Was it Slim?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. The old dude. The alcoholic motherfucker.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, they did him dirty.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Didn't he die being for the holographic? Like he jumped up there and he was like, Oh yeah!

SPEAKER_03

And he he cut his his arm vertically.

The Song At The Door

SPEAKER_01

Josh says there are roughly 67 different distinct types of vampires worldwide. Nice, that's crazy. That's a crazy amount of vampires. And one of those is the I am legend vampires. The Dawn Walkers.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, yeah, that's that's a vampire too.

SPEAKER_02

Um Yeah, I would definitely call that a vampire.

SPEAKER_03

That's closer to like the strain.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, okay. Although, didn't we determine in that movie that uh the doctor was the monster? He's out there kidnapping the population, bringing them to his lair, performing experiments on it. All they were doing was just living.

SPEAKER_03

Which they were they were still smart and they like and killing everybody at night.

SPEAKER_02

There was no anybody anymore. They were just like, Yeah, not anymore.

SPEAKER_03

Like you can't you can't they infected everybody, and then you can't be like, Well, he's the bad guy for kidnapping us.

SPEAKER_02

Humans infected everybody, yeah, yeah, cause because it was a cure. Humans were the monsters in the first place. We turned everybody into this.

SPEAKER_03

Well, yeah, we wanted to kill them. We turn them into monsters, and then they start turning us into monsters.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

But I still think it's a it's a stretch to be like, yeah, the human is the bad.

SPEAKER_01

In the movie, you never really see them. We turned them like because they're portrayed as like zombie-ish. You never see them rip anybody apart. People just nope get infected and are them. So that I think their main goal is just reproduction of, you know, which is very which is very vampire.

SPEAKER_02

So they they were willing to sacrifice themselves for one of their own, which is wait, but vampires almost a uniquely human trait.

SPEAKER_03

Don't vampires typically choose whether they're going to feed on someone versus turn them?

SPEAKER_01

You bite them, they turn, you suck them dry, they're dead. Gotcha.

SPEAKER_03

I had a point to that, but I forgot what it was.

SPEAKER_02

And it depends on like there's some there's some um there's some deviance, as Josh said, 66 different types. So if you go back to the 80s and the movie The Lost Boys, uh, it didn't even require him to get bit. He drank the uh one of the other vampires' blood.

SPEAKER_01

That's funny because I think that's like a Twilight, they have like venom that looks like cum. We don't care about it I know, it's just so funny. Yeah, if a vampire sparkles. It looked like metallic cum, and she was like dying, and she he's trying to turn him her into a vampire, so he's like biting her repeatedly, and then he just pulls out a fucking giant like turkey baster of a syringe and just stabs it into her chest, and he's like, what the fuck is that?

SPEAKER_03

It's my venom, and he just like fucking It's my uh uh uh don't worry about it. Venom. It's my venom. It's a vampire thing, you wouldn't understand.

SPEAKER_01

Anyways.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_01

It's not clocking to you, then I'm standing on business. Anyways.

SPEAKER_03

I I've I'm gonna ignore him. I've been a bit cringy recently, and I've been listening to a lot of Reddit stories, and it got me thinking we should well, I was going to find uh some really good survival-themed Reddit stories about people like getting lost in the wilderness or some shit. And read those and talk about those for an episode.

SPEAKER_01

Hey Alex, uh loser speech?

SPEAKER_03

See, I I knew I clocked it.

SPEAKER_01

Wow, because I was already thinking we should do a Halloween episode. It's a week till Halloween.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, you're gonna have to do a quick edit, quick turn down.

SPEAKER_01

I mean like yeah, if we record like when we're recording next week, I'll just have to fucking edit it on the Thursday. I can record yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, you'll have to edit that one the next day for the Friday release.

SPEAKER_01

That's not bad.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, that's I mean, I'd just do that.

SPEAKER_01

I'd do that shit anyways. I'm a I'm a slacker. What can I say? It's true. I'm horrible. If only I had somebody to help me. Well, you know. You know, bias-ass host. Somebody who would help me.

SPEAKER_03

I help you financially.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Somebody's gonna be able to do that. That's true.

SPEAKER_01

I don't need help. That financial help's good. It gets me these. Uh loser speech, Alex. You're a loser. You lost. Uh you didn't have a good idea. Actually, Alex, uh, you really did have a good idea. That definitely should be our next movie. It's not gonna be our next episode, though.

SPEAKER_03

I could agree with that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Dude, 30 days a night, great movie. Not gonna be our next episode.

SPEAKER_02

That would have been a great movie for a Halloween episode.

SPEAKER_01

Ah. There's only one day at Halloween episode.

SPEAKER_03

I'll find some I'll find some scary I'll find some paranormal stories.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

I'll find some scary Reddit stories. I'm gonna go full Redditor cringe, and I'm gonna regain my virginity uh by spending 40 hours on Reddit this time.

SPEAKER_01

We could do a thing where you like read and then I read all like the quotes if like somebody's talking.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, I I'll give you guys a script, like it's a play, or like it's a awesome.

SPEAKER_01

That's doing too much for work for you, Eric. You're not gonna do that shit.

SPEAKER_03

I'm not gonna do that. No. It's never gonna fucking happen. Who do you think you are? You'd be lucky, you'd be lucky if I copy pasted the words from the story into Discord for you guys. It's true.

SPEAKER_01

It's true. Alright, winner speech. Alright. Was that your winner speech?

SPEAKER_03

Well uh I've been thinking about this concept for like a week and a half now. The Reddit story thing. Um and I'm excited to uh become a virgin again. So I'll see you guys next week when I'm aga once again a virgin.

SPEAKER_02

And a geek.

SPEAKER_03

Nah, that transcends geek. Something about being a Redditor. Redditors don't like Redditors.

SPEAKER_02

So you're gonna become a Redditor.

SPEAKER_03

Well, I fear I low-key already have. Uh one of my favorite podcasts right now is Smosh Reads Reddit Stories. And I there's been a couple things in my life where I'm like, might be worth putting it on Reddit, but then I'm like, oh man, that it really feels like once you cross that line you can't come back from it.

SPEAKER_02

Well, I I tell you that is a fact. I haven't done it, but I know my life story.

SPEAKER_01

If you need some good like horror like Reddit stories, listen to Creepcast. Yeah, if anyone's got uh I'm cutting this out of the episodes so we don't like promote another episode, but you should you should listen to Creepcast.

SPEAKER_03

Alright. I I I know you like that podcast.

SPEAKER_01

I'll give you my favorite episodes and I'll yeah.

SPEAKER_03

It's a good it's a good one. I think I'm gonna go on like R slash paranormal stories or R slash no sleep is like the biggest one.

SPEAKER_01

R slash no sleep. Um those are all where it's like talking from somebody's perspective, like they're uploading it as like a journal.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I was gonna do like R slash I survived, but I worry that's just gonna be a lot of Go Josh just said one sympathy season point for Alex.

SPEAKER_02

Note it down, boys. Huh? I already ended it.

SPEAKER_03
