Dolly (2026)

This podcast episode delves into the cinematic experience surrounding the film "Dolly," a narrative that intertwines themes of horror and violence through the lens of a couple's ill-fated hiking expedition. The conversation unfolds as we recount the film's portrayal of a deranged figure, Dolly, who ensnares the protagonist in a disturbing role reversal, compelling her to regress to a state of infancy. Notably, we examine the film's execution, critiquing the lack of coherence and the prevalence of grotesque imagery that detracts from the intended horror. Throughout, we express our discontent with the decision-making of the characters, which is consistently portrayed as lacking in rationality, further compounding the film's shortcomings. Ultimately, we arrive at a profound consensus regarding the film's failure to deliver a satisfactory viewing experience, culminating in a rather unfavorable rating.

Speaker A:

Because Charles had recommended this movie a while back.

Speaker A:

He brought this movie up and I went perfection.

Speaker A:

I'm pretty sure he recommended this topic in order for me to pick this movie so that he could then vote for it and it all worked out.

Speaker B:

There's level to the corruption.

Speaker A:

That there are.

Speaker A:

Welcome to the what's every podcast where we fashion ourselves cinematic judge and Jerry.

Before we get into this movie and what we're doing here is we're into week four of Alex favorite month.

There's flavors through all the generations right now.

Speaker A:

So go check them out.

Speaker B:

They're delicious.

Speaker A:

They have really good energy made out of green coffee bean extract, a couple other things, but in my opinion, works much better than, you know, canned energy drinks.

Speaker A:

W. With that, let's jump into week four of movies featuring creepy dolls.

Speaker A:

And this one had that in spades.

Speaker A:

This one's called Dolly.

Speaker A:

,:

Speaker A:

It was written by Rod Blackhurst and Brandon Weevil, directed by Rod Blackhurst.

Speaker A:

It stars Fabian Threes, Russ Tiller, Michaelina Scorselli, Kate Cobb, Ethan Supply, Sean William Scott, Max the Impaler, and Eve Blackhurst, the Impaler.

Speaker A:

That's.

Speaker A:

That's who played Dolly was Max the Impaler.

Speaker A:

Apparently she is a wrestler of some sort.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

Anyway, there it is.

Speaker A:

This movie is about hold on.

Speaker A:

I lost it because I was looking at maxi and paler because I was curious.

Speaker A:

This movie's about a couple's hiking trip that turns fatal when they stumble onto the sacred ground of Dolly, a masked, deranged figure who captures the girlfriend and forces her to live as a baby.

Speaker A:

That feels slightly inaccurate.

Speaker B:

The sacred ground of Dolly.

Speaker A:

Yeah, say.

Speaker A:

I mean, I get it.

Speaker A:

There was like this, like, ritualistic looking thing anyway.

Speaker A:

This was my movie.

Speaker B:

Yeah, this is your problem.

Speaker A:

There is one reason and one reason only.

Speaker A:

This movie was on the list.

Speaker A:

That's not true.

Speaker A:

There were two, but the main reason was to.

Speaker A:

With Alec.

Speaker A:

The second reason was because this was.

Speaker A:

I knew it would get picked and it would help me win because Charles had recommended this movie a while back.

Speaker A:

He brought this movie up, and I went, perfection.

Speaker A:

I'm pretty sure he recommended this topic in order for me to pick this movie so that he could then vote for it.

Speaker A:

And it all worked out.

Speaker B:

There's level to the corruption.

Speaker A:

That there are.

Speaker A:

That there are.

Speaker A:

Yeah, Dolly.

Speaker A:

That's the only reason I picked this.

Speaker A:

And it's as bad as I thought it was going to be.

Speaker A:

It's not as creepy as I thought it was gonna be, but it was violent, like, and gruesome.

Speaker A:

Like, there was some gruesome.

Speaker A:

There was some that I was like, that's a little extra.

Speaker A:

But there was also some very.

Speaker A:

I was like, God damn.

Speaker A:

If you want to make somebody feel creepy, crawly, and grossed out because of, like, violence and gore, this one gets there especially.

Speaker A:

There are some places, too, that I had to, like, really lean on my suspension of disbelief.

Speaker A:

Spoiler alert.

Speaker A:

Like, when Sean William Scott's character starts making a second appearance, I'm like, nah,.

Speaker B:

They just paid a lot of money for him and they had to get the screen time.

Speaker A:

Yeah, exactly, exactly.

Speaker A:

Because I was like, no, not a chance.

Speaker A:

Because, yeah, no, it just doesn't happen.

Speaker A:

But I appreciate the effort, I guess, in that level of, like, trying to make you uncomfortable from seeing his face look like the vampires out of a Blade movie.

Speaker A:

Like, I was like, yeah, dude, but peeled by a shovel, which was a weird weapon of choice.

Speaker B:

Effective, though.

Speaker A:

But, yeah, I was gonna say, but it.

Speaker A:

It was functional.

Speaker A:

You know, by the end, I was like, okay, if someone ever shovels work, we can.

Speaker A:

We can do some damage with shovels.

Speaker A:

But, yeah, ultimately,.

Speaker B:

I need.

Speaker B:

I needed to hear, oh, my God, he's got his shovel.

Speaker A:

No, it was more.

Speaker A:

I was talking to my TV when I was watching it, because it was more like when they.

Speaker A:

She walks up and Puts the thing in his mouth.

Speaker A:

I was like, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, don't, don't, don't.

Speaker A:

And then it was worse than I expected because I just expected her to stomp on it like she did with his leg.

Speaker A:

Then she like wedges it in there.

Speaker A:

And part I was like, no, no.

Speaker A:

Why?

Speaker A:

So, yeah, that was horrid.

Speaker A:

And you see that glimpse of it just like yank, snap and everything.

Speaker A:

Oh, terrible.

Speaker A:

But the leg thing.

Speaker A:

Okay, so here's my biggest problem with this movie outside of just this movie.

Speaker A:

The was he doing?

Speaker A:

Like she walks up with this shovel and he just lays there.

Speaker B:

Yeah, get going.

Speaker A:

Like, do something.

Speaker A:

Kick at it.

Speaker A:

Move your leg.

Speaker A:

Don't just stand there or lay there like, what are you trying to accomplish?

Speaker A:

Like, there's no way that anything good comes from this.

Speaker B:

Survival instincts at an all time low.

Speaker A:

Yeah, Horrible.

Speaker A:

Everyone in this movie, I'm like, what are we doing here?

Speaker A:

Like, yeah, off.

Speaker B:

My biggest issue, like before we even get to that issue.

Speaker A:

Sure.

Speaker B:

Was let's go for a scenic height in the Appalachian mountains.

Speaker A:

That's true.

Speaker B:

I'm pretty sure that's where they were.

Speaker B:

I wasn't paying much attention, but that looked like Appalachia.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Look like the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Speaker B:

It did look like a place that I will never be going.

Speaker B:

Like, don't be hiking there.

Speaker B:

First of all.

Speaker B:

That's rule number one.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

And like, what are you doing?

Speaker B:

And then second thing, you see all the creepy dolls.

Speaker A:

Word.

Speaker A:

That's.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

As soon as the first one pops up, hikes over.

Speaker A:

Yeah, let's go somewhere else.

Speaker A:

I'm there for a reason.

Speaker A:

The context.

Speaker A:

I'm like, I'm not proposing with that there.

Speaker A:

No, that'll ruin the mood.

Speaker B:

And then go off by ourselves.

Speaker B:

Right?

Speaker B:

You don't.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

If you have to go to Appalachia, you stay on the trail and you.

Speaker A:

Stay in Paris and you stay with the people.

Speaker B:

You do not go on bonfire yourself.

Speaker B:

And then, and then I see a life size doll.

Speaker B:

Look, they're obviously okay.

Speaker B:

They don't need my help.

Speaker B:

They're doing perfectly fine.

Speaker B:

Just gonna turn around, walk back, grab my soon to be fiance and say, you know what, this bad idea.

Speaker A:

We're gonna.

Speaker A:

It's time for us to go.

Speaker B:

Yeah, we're gonna go.

Speaker B:

I'll propose to you at McDonald's or something.

Speaker A:

Like, yeah, we'll find a nice restaurant and a bottle of wine.

Speaker A:

Movie over.

Speaker B:

There we go.

Speaker B:

But it just a terrible decision making on everybody's part.

Speaker B:

Oh, and then this movie was just like the only Way I could really describe it was because I watched this without Oshi and she was mad at first.

Speaker B:

I told her, like, this was disgusting.

Speaker B:

Like.

Speaker B:

Yeah, on so many levels.

Speaker B:

It was just gross.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Like, we did Barbarian and that had some disgusting and gross parts in it.

Speaker B:

Yeah, this was just all gross.

Speaker A:

Yeah, it was.

Speaker B:

It wasn't very scary.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

It was just like I was sitting there doing for most of it, like.

Speaker B:

Like, it was you.

Speaker B:

Gross.

Speaker B:

Disgusting.

Speaker B:

Why?

Speaker B:

Why?

Speaker B:

Why did someone say this would make a great movie?

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Like Richard Blackweave or whatever his name was.

Speaker B:

Like, what the.

Speaker B:

Dude.

Speaker A:

It's because I believe it started on the Shutter Network, which is an AMC product and they just make everything.

Speaker B:

Yeah, apparently.

Speaker B:

But this was stupid and it was gross.

Speaker A:

It was.

Speaker B:

I was like, there because the.

Speaker B:

The movie poster that, like, not what we have posted here, but, like, the actual one that shows it.

Speaker B:

That looks terrifying.

Speaker A:

Yes.

Speaker B:

Right.

Speaker B:

Be.

Speaker B:

And we don't get an image like that.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

In the movie.

Speaker B:

And if.

Speaker B:

If you take that image of what's on the poster and kind of build the movie around that you have something incredibly terrifying ready and waiting.

Speaker B:

And we got this.

Speaker B:

And I was like, ew.

Speaker B:

Like, yeah.

Speaker B:

The point where she's throwing her around and, like, rips her ear and it's just dangling.

Speaker A:

Dangling.

Speaker B:

And then they spend an awfully long time, like, focusing on her stitching this back up.

Speaker B:

Like.

Speaker A:

Yeah, well.

Speaker A:

And you know what's the worst part?

Speaker A:

We've talked about a few.

Speaker A:

The biting or nipple off.

Speaker A:

Like, that was.

Speaker A:

Dude, what the.

Speaker A:

What are we watching right now?

Speaker B:

Why do we need that?

Speaker A:

We don't.

Speaker B:

And see that.

Speaker B:

It's just like, it's one more disgusting thing.

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Where I was like, you.

Speaker B:

And you know it's coming.

Speaker A:

Like, oh, yeah.

Speaker B:

You know it's gonna happen, but it's just still like, I can't.

Speaker B:

I can't stop it.

Speaker B:

Like, ah, well.

Speaker A:

And I think that's like, this movie.

Speaker A:

You're right.

Speaker A:

This movie wasn't scary.

Speaker A:

It made me uncomfortable.

Speaker A:

Like, there were like, the whole.

Speaker A:

That whole, like, trying to feed her scene.

Speaker A:

No, I'm good.

Speaker A:

Like that.

Speaker A:

I.

Speaker A:

That was the wor.

Speaker A:

Like, I was so, like.

Speaker A:

And the part where she gives her the bottle and you can tell that it's, like, chunky and there's no.

Speaker A:

They're out in the middle of nowhere.

Speaker A:

Like, there's no way that that's good.

Speaker A:

And she's drinking it and like, I'm starting to get gag reflex right now just thinking about it.

Speaker A:

I get like.

Speaker A:

I had to, like, turn my Head away from it because I was gonna gag.

Speaker A:

I was like, this is horrid.

Speaker A:

And it not in, like, okay, that's entertainingly horrible.

Speaker A:

No, it was.

Speaker A:

I was.

Speaker A:

This is.

Speaker A:

It's gross.

Speaker A:

Yeah, this is gross.

Speaker A:

And that part made me.

Speaker A:

I was like, oh, no, no, no.

Speaker A:

See, I would rather you just take the shovel and yeah.

Speaker A:

Cave my face in with it, then make me drink sour milk and then your titty milk.

Speaker A:

I'm out.

Speaker A:

Like, that's just amount.

Speaker A:

That was horrible.

Speaker A:

Horrible.

Speaker B:

And it, like, doesn't get any better.

Speaker B:

Just continue from there.

Speaker B:

Just keeps going down.

Speaker B:

It's just like.

Speaker A:

Yeah, just gory.

Speaker B:

This is a short movie.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Like, it was very short.

Speaker B:

Very.

Speaker B:

I have never watched a four hour long.

Speaker B:

Hour long movie.

Speaker A:

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker B:

It was.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Dragging.

Speaker B:

It was uncomfortable the entire time.

Speaker B:

Gross.

Speaker B:

Disgusting.

Speaker B:

It's like, come on, we.

Speaker B:

We got to be able to do better.

Speaker A:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker B:

In terms of filmmaking.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Like, somebody somewhere has to just be like, hey, you know what?

Speaker B:

No, you're not getting your budget for this.

Speaker A:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker A:

That's the problem with the shutter network these days is they just went too far with it because they made some creepy.

Speaker A:

But this isn't it.

Speaker A:

This one was like, it's just gross.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

There was nothing.

Speaker A:

And then there was, like, really bad effects to it too.

Speaker A:

Like, and most of it was fine.

Speaker A:

Like, I understand that you're on a.

Speaker A:

You're on a limited budget, right?

Speaker A:

But like, so, like, what they did to Sean William Scott's face and even her ear, I was like, okay, I can tell it's.

Speaker A:

It's a prosthetic, but that's fine.

Speaker A:

But the punch through the dad's chest or whatever.

Speaker A:

I was like, first of all, no.

Speaker A:

Because then this woman is invincible at that.

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

You know what I mean?

Speaker A:

Like the way she picks up Sean William Scott at the beginning and holds him with like, chokes him out pretty much.

Speaker A:

I was like, okay, fine.

Speaker A:

I. I fully believe that there's a woman that can be that strong.

Speaker A:

What I don't believe is there's a woman that can punch me through a man's chest that slowly, like.

Speaker A:

Because you see it, like, start to, like, rip apart from the front in the shot that they show.

Speaker A:

And then it.

Speaker A:

I was like, no, you'd have to like that.

Speaker A:

Would you need like some sort of carving device?

Speaker A:

And that pocket knife, isn't it?

Speaker A:

And then the graphics go really shitty because that's like the only computer animation that's in there.

Speaker A:

And then looks through the hole, like that's supposed to Make.

Speaker A:

I was like, this movie sucks.

Speaker A:

I was like, this is stupid.

Speaker A:

It's not entertaining.

Speaker A:

It's just shock and awe with, like, gross.

Speaker A:

Like, it's a good word that you.

Speaker A:

It's gross.

Speaker B:

Well, then, like, at the same time, that's happening a little bit before that.

Speaker B:

Right?

Speaker B:

You have, again, no survival instincts.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

From any one of all.

Speaker B:

I'll say.

Speaker B:

The main characters.

Speaker B:

Right.

Speaker B:

Or the people to root for.

Speaker B:

Because wait until you're out of the house right, before you go ahead and try and pull a fast one on, you know, Jones, McGee.

Speaker B:

Like, wait.

Speaker B:

Yeah, just step one.

Speaker B:

Get out of the house.

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Like, you're not making it out on your own.

Speaker B:

We've already established this.

Speaker B:

Wait till you're outside all that space to run, all that space to roam, then go.

Speaker A:

Yeah, but it's just so.

Speaker B:

It's just like one bad decision after another topped with just.

Speaker B:

Again, gross.

Speaker B:

Gross, gross, gross, gross, gross.

Speaker B:

Nasty ass.

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

That was all it was.

Speaker B:

And so, yeah, I was sitting there watching it, going, what the.

Speaker A:

What the.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Like, what the hell am I watching this month?

Speaker B:

Because this is now.

Speaker B:

This is like three for three.

Speaker B:

I was like, bad movie.

Speaker B:

Didn't get scared then.

Speaker B:

It was absolute gross.

Speaker A:

Oh, yeah.

Speaker B:

Been a bad month for me.

Speaker B:

But not for the reason that everybody would expect it would be a bad month.

Speaker B:

It's been a bad month because I had to watch four shitty movies.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

That's what it ended up being.

Speaker B:

And just this one was like.

Speaker B:

I was.

Speaker B:

I was like.

Speaker B:

I was expecting more.

Speaker B:

Once again, I was expecting more.

Speaker B:

And it came in just so.

Speaker B:

Under the bar.

Speaker B:

Yeah, incredibly under the bar.

Speaker A:

Can we talk for a sec?

Speaker A:

Will you just leave the ring?

Speaker B:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker A:

Like, leave the ring.

Speaker A:

Who fucking cares?

Speaker A:

He's dead.

Speaker A:

And even if at the point.

Speaker A:

Like, at that point in time, especially early on, she thought he was dead.

Speaker A:

So to what end are you getting this ring?

Speaker A:

Like, what.

Speaker A:

What purpose does that serve?

Speaker A:

He doesn't fucking care anymore.

Speaker A:

He's dead.

Speaker A:

And you should probably just try to survive so that maybe his poor daughter has someone to raise him.

Speaker A:

Razor.

Speaker A:

Besides the aunt and uncle or whatever, you know what I mean?

Speaker A:

Like, the.

Speaker A:

Are we doing here?

Speaker A:

Like, Jesus, leave.

Speaker B:

Or if you really want the ring shovel.

Speaker B:

Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.

Speaker B:

For a good solid 20 minutes.

Speaker A:

Yeah, two.

Speaker A:

You can't swing that thing anymore.

Speaker A:

And then let's not try to pry it off the fat finger.

Speaker A:

Let's just fucking use the shovel to chop off the finger.

Speaker A:

Yeah, the diamond will be okay.

Speaker A:

The promise.

Speaker A:

I. I just.

Speaker A:

And Then the other one that I was laughing at is, like, when she hits her with the car.

Speaker A:

Why'd you stop?

Speaker B:

Yeah, keep going.

Speaker A:

I understand if you're in, like, a Subaru, that's a big woman, that'll do some damage.

Speaker A:

You're in a Ford Bronco that looks lifted.

Speaker A:

Run her head over a dozen times.

Speaker A:

Don't reverse forward.

Speaker A:

Reverse forward.

Speaker A:

Yeah, exactly.

Speaker A:

And don't, don't run her over.

Speaker A:

This woman's taking shovels to the head.

Speaker A:

Stabs in the side, stabs in the back.

Speaker A:

Beat downs.

Speaker A:

Gets up.

Speaker A:

It's like Jason in the doll mask.

Speaker A:

As a woman.

Speaker A:

Just run the.

Speaker A:

Don't stop.

Speaker A:

You got the advantage.

Speaker A:

Don't get out of the car after one hit.

Speaker A:

Back it up, run it forward, back it up till it's mush.

Speaker A:

Then go get your ring again.

Speaker A:

The ring will survive.

Speaker A:

The diamond will.

Speaker A:

Your ring might be a little bent, but you'll find the diamond.

Speaker A:

It's stronger than the tire.

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

It'll be okay.

Speaker A:

It just, it was so bad.

Speaker A:

Bad choices all around.

Speaker A:

And most horror movies, people are making bad choices, but this one was like, I was like, what the.

Speaker B:

Just one after another of poor choices.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

And then after every poor choice, it got grosser.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

Oh, yeah.

Speaker B:

And so it's almost like you get extra punished for your poor choices in this specific horror movie.

Speaker B:

I don't even really call it a horror movie.

Speaker A:

I don't.

Speaker A:

It's more of a thriller.

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

A weird thriller.

Speaker A:

And then like.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

And there's just confute, like the dad part.

Speaker A:

Like, was that really her dad?

Speaker A:

Or was that some.

Speaker B:

Talking about his brother?

Speaker B:

But was that really his brother?

Speaker B:

And he had this weird old inbred family going on.

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Or was he just someone who, you know, got adopted into Dolly's family?

Speaker A:

Yeah, exactly.

Speaker A:

Like, I don't.

Speaker A:

We don't know.

Speaker A:

And it was like, so then I've got questions.

Speaker A:

And now I'm like, why do I, I don't want questions about.

Speaker B:

Yeah, I don't want to do any more.

Speaker B:

Brain power.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Trying to figure out this movie.

Speaker A:

This doesn't move.

Speaker A:

This movie doesn't deserve that kind of, that level of effort.

Speaker A:

So, speaking which, should we rate it?

Speaker B:

I think this is our shortest episode.

Speaker A:

It probably is, but, yeah, let's go.

Speaker B:

Ahead and rate it because I got nothing else.

Speaker A:

I don't either.

Speaker A:

There's not much to talk about here.

Speaker A:

There's no substances.

Speaker A:

It's a 0.5.

Speaker A:

I, I, I'm only giving it a zero because at least.

Speaker A:

Or not a zero.

Speaker A:

Because at least it had some, like, oh, me gore.

Speaker A:

Like, even as gross as it was, I was like, oh, they went there.

Speaker A:

Which I appreciate because I am a horror fan.

Speaker A:

I am a gore.

Speaker A:

Like, I like that.

Speaker A:

But that's it.

Speaker A:

The rest of it, it's bad.

Speaker A:

It's not scary.

Speaker A:

It makes me question.

Speaker A:

Here's the problem.

Speaker A:

It also makes me look at these.

Speaker A:

At people and go, okay, there are people out here that would do this, like, other than me and you, that, like, I'm telling you, I'm with you.

Speaker A:

I'd be walking through the woods, see a doll hanging from a tree, and go, ah, we're in the wrong woods.

Speaker B:

This is not where we're supposed to be right now.

Speaker A:

I made a mistake.

Speaker A:

You want to go get some dinner?

Speaker A:

Let's get out of here.

Speaker A:

Because it's.

Speaker A:

I'm out, dude.

Speaker A:

Like, I don't even like the idea of hiking up to a spot in the woods in general, but I certainly not doing it when we come across the bunch of dolls, you know, and it's.

Speaker A:

This is based off of, like, loosely based off, like, the island of the dolls.

Speaker A:

There's an actual little island that's, like, dolls hanging from trees.

Speaker B:

I've heard of it.

Speaker B:

Never going there.

Speaker A:

That.

Speaker A:

I'm out.

Speaker A:

But, yeah, this.

Speaker A:

This movie's not good.

Speaker A:

Just skip it.

Speaker A:

It's not worth watching.

Speaker A:

It is gross, weird fodder of, like, some twisted mind that just wanted to make a movie.

Speaker A:

And.

Speaker A:

Yeah, 0.5.

Speaker A:

I'll never watch it again, ever.

Speaker A:

Your turn.

Speaker B:

I'm gonna give it a zero.

Speaker A:

That's fair.

Speaker B:

It's just.

Speaker B:

It's just bad.

Speaker B:

I think it's one of the worst movies we've done on the podcast.

Speaker B:

And we have done some absolute stinkers.

Speaker B:

Like, I can't remember that one.

Speaker B:

Birds or whatever.

Speaker A:

Oh, what was that?

Speaker B:

I think it's something called Birds.

Speaker B:

But that movie, Bird.

Speaker A:

Yeah, that was bad.

Speaker B:

That what?

Speaker B:

That was better than this Fair.

Speaker B:

Because they at least tried.

Speaker B:

Yeah, like, they tried.

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

This is just like.

Speaker B:

It almost feels like someone's trying to get a tax cut.

Speaker B:

So they made a movie, and they made it so bad that nobody would want to see it so that they don't make a profit off.

Speaker A:

Take a loss.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Take a loss on it so they can claim even less on their taxes.

Speaker A:

Woof.

Speaker B:

But it was just.

Speaker B:

It's just bad on every single level.

Speaker B:

It's gross, disgusting, awful.

Speaker B:

I have zero good redeeming qualities, really.

Speaker B:

For it.

Speaker B:

And so, yeah, I will never be watching this again.

Speaker B:

I'm Mad had to watch it once.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

And I'm mad that it, you know, is we're over 4 this month, JJ over 4 the bad.

Speaker B:

Not for the reason that gets us views.

Speaker A:

Yeah, I don't think it's getting any better either, but.

Speaker A:

Yeah, but yeah, so they said a six hundred thousand dollar budget.

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

So they're avoiding taxes.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Because five hundred thousand that's going to Sean the Stifler and the rest of that is just so they could take a loss because there's no way it made 600 gr.

Speaker A:

No, the.

Speaker A:

The domestic opening weekend was 400,473 000 total gross worldwide was 1 million.

Speaker A:

Just over a million.

Speaker A:

So they lost a lot of money.

Speaker A:

A lot of money.

Speaker A:

500000 With the Sean Williams got.

Speaker A:

That's funny.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

This movie sucks.

Speaker A:

Don't go see it.

Speaker A:

Alec, tell everybody where you can find us when we're avoiding dolls and human.

Speaker A:

About the Podcast

What's Our Verdict Reviews
Cinematic Judge and Jury
Out of the ashes of the internet a podcast was formed. Four friends from different backgrounds united to create a pod for the common man. Devoid of the tedium of critically acclaimed podcasts, these brave souls embarked on a holy mission, to bring the light-hearted attitude of discussing movies with friends to the podcasting scene. However, due to unforeseen budget cuts two of their number were lost to the void of the internet. Doomed for eternity to find nothing but cat videos and food challenges. The remaining heroes, JJ and Mattson searched far and wide for a suitable replacement but in the end settled for Alec. These two and a half heroes continue in their mission to bring an enjoyable conversation about movies and tv shows directly to you, our viewers. Join us wherever fine podcasts can be found and chime into the conversation to join our crew of misfits.
Come follow us on social media on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter all @whatsourverdict. You can also email us at hosts@whatsourverdict.com or visit us at our website www.whatsourverdict.com.

About your hosts

Mattson Heiner

Profile picture for Mattson Heiner
The Real Ginge everyone! Mattson loves to binge watch the latest tv shows, movies, and deep dive into plot points. Besides trying to be a movie critic he enjoys all things sports and a warm pan of brownies!

Alec Burgess

Profile picture for Alec Burgess
A connoisseur of all fine cinema, mediocre cinema, and even poor cinema you may think that Alec would have a better understanding of how movies work, and you'd be wrong. This self-styled man child believes that movies should not only be entertaining, but fun as well. Unburdened by things like reality he plans on continuing to live his best life while thumbing his nose at film critics. Enough of that noise, now let's get it!

JJ Crowder

Profile picture for JJ Crowder
JJ, The Man, The Myth, The Legend...ok that's actually only true for the amount of movies and tv shows he has seen and for calling his co-hosts by the wrong names during introductions. But for real, he has seen A LOT of movies and TV.
