"zombie cat can be snuggly too, just in a gross way" - Matt Sloan 2019

[@plastickhero]

One look at Craig and you know there's a man who's had an intimate relationship with spirit gum.

[@GoatHeadWalletProdt]

Matt wearing the beard,wig, and glasses looks like Alan Moore

[@gabrielreyesjr7852]

YES

[@Zylork0122]

With only the wig, he looks like Jane Timm Baxter.

[@GoatHeadWalletProdt]

Zylork0122 R.I.P Jane Timm Baxter

[@whoknowswhocares885]

He looks like a drug addicted Santa

[@smallmanbigmouth2699]

That’s what I thought he was dressed as at first. Reminds me of Sal from Comic Pop’s Alan Moore get up, lol

[@smallmanbigmouth2699]

“The man has one continuous eyebrow!” ‘AND WHAT’S WRONG WITH THAT?!?’ -You couldn’t have seen that coming, and it was g-danged HILARIOUS!

[@porgyt7177]

Quick real-life Stryper story: I pulled ushering shifts at the Fox Theater in Atlanta. You had to usher for crap in order to be able to usher on nights of good shows. So in order to see Bob Dylan for free , I took the Stryper shift. Towards the end of the final set , the lead singer said : "oh, we better do this before we forget" Then the band grabbed boxes of little travel-sized Bibles and threw them into the crowd ( the bibles not the boxes).

[@mrtveenstra]

PorgyTirebiter MC Did you have to clean them up? Did most people take them home?

[@porgyt7177]

@@mrtveenstra Yes, there were plenty to be picked up after. I think we put them all in Lost and Found. I kept one in my glove compartment until my car exploded, after losing the muffler, while driving through the Outer Banks.

[@aestevalis0]

Outer Banks is a hell of a place for your car to explode. Hope you were at least near one of the few towns out there big enough to have an actual repair station.

[@bobloblaw5236]

Just got home, took off my shoes to relax, and saw that there was a new episode of Welcome To The Basement. I am indeed THRILLED. Hope you folks have a fun and spooky Halloween.

[@stevnated]

Dang Craig, you are so right! Emphatically hanging up the phone used to be so satisfying. Especially on a pay phone because those were indestructible.

[@shaggymcscraggy4251]

The very next person to call me is getting a "Thrill me !" haha

[@jasongonzalez9923]

You guys just ... Thrill Me

[@tfangel]

In my mind Night of the Creeps is part of a trilogy with Cronenberg's Shivers and Slither. It's also one of my favorite movies, just so fun, and it thrills me. ;)

[@tipsysprinkles206]

At 4:05 I was so hoping someone would chime in with, "Put your ass on my pillllllooooooow," lol.

[@jordanhunter1211]

one year later and this episode is still just as thrilling

[@deadpan80]

Gotta respect Dick Miller - the patron saint of "hey, I know that face" character actors

[@MagnaRyuuDesigns]

Also no "Mama's Family" joke for Brad-ster? That was Allan Kayser who played Bubba Higgins on "Mama's Family"

[@lapis591]

I was thinking the same thing when I saw him!

[@Jacob-Vivimord]

8:26 "Carry the tangent" Hahaha.

[@TheGreenandEnvious]

Nice little detail for the Luten bus to be a black cat 8:30

[@CannonRanger1]

Mission accomplished guys. You have fully encompassed the funniest bad movie of my teenage years. Bless you!

[@im0rtel]

guys keep doing the basement.. i love your show!

[@CriticalRoleHighlights]

3:43 Billy West! Yay!

[@dashhazard8526]

Blurp! Your it! God I miss playing tag as a kid...

[@KrustyFrank27]

This is actually the theatrical version.

[@vampricramen]

I loved the Gate as a kid and I still love it as an adult

[@JQXJQ]

I love this movie! It's like every horror cliche rolled into one gloriously campy package with a few legitimately creepy moments, AKA a great Halloween movie.

[@jgaines4]

The Lighthouse. Seen it?

[@ef6712]

Awesome! I am so happy you all chose this film. It is a fun one for the season. Happy Halloween! 😊🎃

[@rkgaustin]

Wow! @13:57 Suzanne Snyder who played high school girl Deb in 'Weird Science' just a year before this certainly matured quickly.

[@tecumsehcristero]

"Abba da babba" is my favorite line from the movie

[@DarthBleak]

I love that Rob Zombie album! I also love the story about how Tommy Lee came to play on the track Meet the Creeper

[@WickedlyWritten]

Seen it! Have you guys seen the movie Dutch (1991)? It's an underrated Thanksgiving dramedy with a whole lot of sass and a whole lot of heart. Ed O'Neill was perfectly cast as the working-class take-no-guff boyfriend.

[@JohnSmith-td7hd]

7:47 Is that police officer the same police officer in Mary Hartman Mary Hartman?! What if they exist in the same universe?

[@DrLipkin]

Are there any movies that you really liked the first time you watched them, and upon rewatch realized were bad? Equilibrium was that for me. The first time I watched it, I thought it was awesome. When I watched it again years later, I was actually full on laughing about how bad it was.

[@nanodisco]

Olivia Hussey! She's great in Turkey Shoot aka Blood Camp Thatcher... Also with Steve Railsback

[@fugithegreat]

Top notch riffing, guys!

[@MRFIXITZ]

I've seen this movie and I actually really enjoyed it. I love these B horror movies.

[@redsands1001]

Loved the gate as a kid

[@leradoms]

I got all excited because I thought Matt wasn't wearing a shirt

[@mergus]

Matt not wear a shirt? OhhhhHhHhHhH!

[@a1investigations433]

I'm thrilled you guys did this one. It's pretty okay!

[@ewanhodson9627]

Fun fact, Tom Atkins who appears as Detective Cameron in Night of the Creeps also appeared in the Ninth Configuration sans moustache.

[@blamesocietyfilms]

That fact is indeed fun.

[@MagnaRyuuDesigns]

Ted?

[@ewanhodson9627]

Magna Ryuu Whoops, should have put Tom, edited it now. Thanks.

[@rkgaustin]

Allan Kayser Bubba from 'Mama's Family', David "Dr." Paymer from like a million things, and of course Jason "Rusty" Lively from 'National Lampoon's European Vacation'!

[@amandao8194]

Seen it? Empire of the Ants, starring Joan Collins and Robert Pine (Chris Pine’s Father). So ridiculously silly that it is a must watch/mention! Just in time for Halloween 🎃🎃.

[@Goldenspiderducck]

A whole night of creeps?? You KNOW there’s gonna be some.....creepin ‘n’ peepin!!

[@korbeskorner]

Around the time of Night of the Creeps was another great horror movie called = THE WILLIES! check it out if you haven't already!

[@AdudenamedKemp]

Have you fellows seen Ordinary People? I highly recommend it; I've watched it at least 5 times by now. I know Craig likes his Judd Hirsch!

[@ChipWhitingtonIII]

Love the film, love you guys..... also, Jill Whitlow looks eerily like youtuber Megan Batoon.

[@smacksalad]

Answered the phone with a "Thrill me!" but two weeks ago :)

[@Rpena1448]

Man I miss Halloween as a kid. I remember one yr it was on a Saturday and it ended perfectly with SNICK on first then Monstervision marathon on TNT. I think I downed over half my candy haul that night with my cousin -.- lol

[@caffeineadvocate]

I'd like to propose a vote: Dick Miller for the basement hall of fame. May I get a second?

[@aestevalis0]

I second that.

[@preachercaine]

Woah, I just watched Brandons review of this film. Strange both of your channels picked the same movie and released your vids on the same day.

[@flahoo2807]

Have you seen Ghost dog, Way of the samurai? Its a film that is near and dear to my heart, scored by RZA from The wutang clan and directed by Jim Jarmusch. Easily one of my top 10 favorite films.

[@adgato75]

I thought it was pretty dumb. Do you actually like it , or ironically? I DID like that it showed how the code of the samurai was really just bullshit to control the samurai and keep the daimyos in power.

[@flahoo2807]

@@adgato75 It was a definetly flawed system in feudal japan, but I absolutely love the film for its simplicity. The mob is dying out, and as a result of their doings, their prime hitman who is deadly and untracable is now picking them off

[@flahoo2807]

@@adgato75 The interludes and the progression of the film are fantastic to me as well. Its a jarmusch film, so there is going to be some strange presentation overall, but it gives an artistic flair to the work.

[@adgato75]

@@flahoo2807 Well , I dislike Jarmusch in general , personally. I dunno , the film just seemed really corny in parts. I think it was on purpose , but it just didn't gel with me.

[@flahoo2807]

@@adgato75 Well that is understandable. Jarmusch does have some strange tropes in his films, but to me they are refreshing. Not to further this argument, but what in particular was corny to you? I havent heard any other takes on Ghost dog, and id love to know what scene you though was corny.

[@lyricsfromsweden]

For the next Halloween episodes I would recommend The Initiation. It's a surprisingly decent slasher film with creative cinematography and some hilarious extras!

[@MagnaRyuuDesigns]

You glossed over Tom Atkins being in this? How can you do that? It's Tom Freaking Atkins. man :D

[@themoviedealers]

Who?

[@PooNinja]

Bubba was from Raytown and where ever the creeps landed 😂

[@MagnaRyuuDesigns]

Yes! Someone else who knew that was Allan Kayser as Brad

[@Sabretoothsquirrel]

Seen it? The movie where Tom Cruise *didn't* play the hero but the villain and did it so good! Collateral?

[@jordanexmortis3249]

Hold Me Kill Me Kiss Me Thrill Me

[@michenry8]

literally nobody: Detective Cameron: THRILL ME!

[@volvolakaemma9209]

It's a Fred Dekker movie. Its not going to be worse. He is as good as Joe Dante in movie making and so Gremlins quality. Night of the creeps is one of my childhood favorites.

[@FrankDad]

7:47, he didn’t put his arms up, that means he GETS BANNISHED TO THE BLACK HOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLEEEEEE

[@samuelwetz8378]

That rob zombie album in the background 🤣

[@angeluzerrare8170]

The one I watched had a different ending. As the teen couple kiss, the dog shows up and the girl gets down to pet it and it "blehs" her.

[@hpdanfan14]

When you were going to make a comparison of this movie, I was surprised you said Gremlins rather than Slither.

[@UnderdogRecords91]

WTTB and Brandon Tenold releasing reviews for the same movie within 2 hours of each other: Now that's a double feature.

[@catgirl923]

As someone who was actually in Kappa Delta sorority, it keeps catching me off guard when they say it. I had to look it up just to confirm that it was actually Kappa Delta Epsilon, which also really exists.

[@pcwkid76]

I have NO recollection of asking about the Tom Cruise Mummy film, but I'll take Matt's word for it. Also, I'm wondering what Lorenzo thought of those eye brows?

[@PokerJoker811]

That Dick Miller scene actually does bother me. It's a fine and acceptable movie bit, you pull out the gun and say "I've got your paperwork right here." That's all fine, but how do you get away with that scene when you're holding up an *armory*? You're trying to take a weapon, from place chock full of weapons, by force. Any competent desk clerk, especially in a movie, should be able to come back with the weapon they want and immediately discharge it.

[@JimmysALilGirl]

I saw this movie for the first time a few years ago on like Netflix or Prime or something. I thought it was okay for what it was. Also, it's Troma, not trauma. I made the same mistake for a decade or two, lol.

[@tecumsehcristero]

That's Dr Chalice from Halloween iii Season of the Witch

[@BeavisSaves]

Night of the Creeps, but you dont invite Aaron along? False advertising.

[@stormcloudsabound]

Too obvious.

[@brookegriggs438]

Have you all seen The Lighthouse?

[@saraphinn]

What a great movie, and Dick Miller to boot!

[@ummon995]

Oh another Halloween WTTB episode. Okay, guys. Thrill me.

[@Aramis419]

Is Matt's beard and wig the same gear from "Epic Tales from the Internet"?

[@Scallycowell]

During the screening, Matt went from God in The Apple to Meatloaf in Bloodrayne. A good choice.

[@paulmitchum8658]

Without the eyebrows, he's Edgar Wright. With them, he's Joe Dante.

[@badcatbad]

IMO, "Pandemonium" is one of the best horror parody movies ever. Seen it?

[@MarianneBrandon]

Craig might want to visit a counselor to talk through whatever trauma he suffered at the hands of frat boys. ;-)

[@jahigroe653]

.......fireball 🤣🤣

[@Dyrnwyn]

16:17 dealing with mammaries?

[@Kylechaneymultimedia]

"He's fully thrilled, fully"

[@sw3dishla8rat]

Stryker rules! Notice the kid is wearing a yellow with black plaid shirt....hmm striper I remember always wore yellow and black!

[@lucash8234]

I went on a Shandango today with The Current War. Seen it? I liked the cinematography and set design, my aunt thought it was the best movie ever made (she loves Benedict Cumberbatch).

[@rkgaustin]

I once visited Hyles Anderson christian college and there was graffiti on the men's room stall. Someone had written "Jesus is Lord!" and there were several other comments arguing if the bathroom wall was an appropriate place for Jesus' name to be written.

[@TheDoctorProfessor]

STRYPER RULES!

Is Craig supposed to be the drunk teetotaler form Super Sonic Man?

[@jonathanzuckerman520]

Bruce Solomon is in this,

[@samuelyeet6006]

What was the project in the basement? Its killing me, why were all the death slugs attracted to the base time

[@blamesocietyfilms]

Jars full of human brains

[@aestevalis0]

I do prefer the 90s IT over the new movie but I like Skarsgard's Pennywise a little bit more because his appearance is more in line with the book version.

[@Diafotismos]

You must watch the movie The Fanatic with John Travolta in the lead and directed by Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst. All people must watch The Fanatic! Watch The Fanatic! Do it!

[@NathanEHarvey]

Cabin in the Woods! (Written by Joss Whedon if you’re skeptical)

[@vampricramen]

Yes, and directed by Drew Goddard. Learn nothing else about before you see it.

[@chrisbarrett8377]

Is that supposed to make me more or less skeptical?

[@aestevalis0]

I haven't seen either of the DotDs in a long while. That being said, I vaguely remember the remake being better simply by dint of having a bigger budget. Acting was better in the original though, imo.

[@aestevalis0]

I know what Matt's costume is. Do you? Taste it.

[@MrOneofthousands1994]

I came here just to tell you that you misspelled "Basement."

[@blamesocietyfilms]

Ha ha. Fixed.

This is Stranger Things season 1-3 but also 4, watch out

Yo... The gate is exactly what I was thinking about this entire episode!
