Child's Play & Phantasm 2 (Air Date: 10/11/97)
🕑 Added 2023-03-26 02:38:36 +0000 UTCHappy Splatterday, Patreon Pals! I'm helping JB with his 21st Century Cult Classic night w/ Bubba Ho-Tep & Donnie Darko in Oklahoma City, but wanted to be sure I got Monstervision out to ya'll before it got too late.
The only salvageable tape I can find of this episode is missing the first two lines, but just to be sure you don't miss out on a single word of J.B.'s genius, here they are in his favorite form...the written word.
Below that is a pic of JB Ho-Teppin it up at tonight's show, and then the all important time codes.
Hope to see some of you after the show tonight!

Oh yeah and I used to love when they traded censored scenes with new extended scenes not in the theatrical version like Fast Times or The Funhouse
@8:41 actually I think vintage censorship aged really well, I find it fun to hear alternate censored dialogue, and sometimes we even get a whole new soundtrack and name of the director as in the case of Fuller’s/Fulci’s 7 Doors of Death/Beyond lol
"one day he's telling bad jokes by the watercooler" sing it JB! also thank goodness someone is wiling to admit Phantasm don't make a lick of sense because what the Hell
Totally had a great time listening to joe bob and darcy talk and giggle through 'Leprechaun 3'. it was the first time ive ever got a chance to be there and now im craving more! so wish i was in oklahoma city for the show , such a good time
Greatly appreciate the love and detail being devoted to restoring / saving this work .
Phantasm 2 is the episode that made me want to make horror movies! I was HAUNTED by the ending - I remember where I was sitting when the Tall Man said "No, it's not" and everything went to hell. After that I started getting more and more into how films worked, and now I work in entertainment and make scary movies. I owe the Monstervision episode of Phantasm 2 my career!
Celluloid Sickness
Love that transition at 21:15 to the howling coyote, then pan over to Joe Bob with his head tilted back. I don't think I've ever heard anyone aside from JB here pronounce Dourif as "Door-eef," lol.
Excellent way to wake up! Thank you. Finished our Romero sat night at home with Martin and Knightriders and are moving on to Child's Play again now this a.m. w/the time stamps. Trying to make it to the Colonial for Bubba Ho-Tep and Rock n Roll High School. The wife would probably leave me for Bruce Campbell and has NEVER watched Bubba Ho-Tep - need to change that pronto.
More popcorn? I quite like the idea of trying the popcorn at every venue...for science. And I really like popcorn.
I remember watching this wpisode LIVE! And I should be there with y'all in OKC tonight. Had tickets and all. Stuff came up and I couldn't come. Next time though!
🤠🍿👍. Awesome...love it! 🙌
Ok so you need to scan all those scripts. K thx
That is dead-ication. JB is rocking some Elvis Worthy Threads. If your dressed as Ann Margret in Viva Las Vegas 🥰🥰🥰😋
