Chris: Om.

Chris: What's going on, everybody? This is the Grind syndicate.

Jordan: I'm Chris. The Grind syndicate.

Chris: No. Yeah. Messed that up.

Chris: We'll start that one over. What's going on, everybody? This is the Grindhouse syndicate. And I'm Chris. This is Jordan, and today we are covering 1998 science fiction horror movie The Faculty.

Jordan: Good stuff.

Chris: Yeah, it's a good movie.

Jordan: The Nostalgia.

Chris: All right, so before we get into it, got any cool horror movie news? Any cool stuff you've been keeping up? Got I got I guess I got some. So Universal Studios announced that they're going to be doing what's their theme this year is going to be Stranger Things.

Jordan: Again?

Chris: Yeah, I guess it's again, wasn't last year Stranger Things?

Jordan: Yeah, I believe it was.

Chris: I think it was. I mean, they did that with The Walking Dead, too, though.

Jordan: They were like yeah, but The Walking Dead was like horror.

Chris: Yeah.

Chris: Stranger things, not horror. I don't count that as horror Halloween.

Jordan: Horror Nights is supposed to be scary. I personally find Stranger Things as a.

Chris: Comedy with just strange things happening.

Jordan: Things happening. Yeah, that's a great timepiece. But definitely more on the comedy side. Last season. I guess like the main character guy, he was a lot scarier, but I just don't find that scary.

Chris: Yeah.

Chris: In my opinion. I don't know this officially, but they ripped off their villain is kind of.

Chris: A rip off of The Void.

Chris: If you haven't seen the void, check the void.

Jordan: Yeah, I actually remember you mentioning that to me. It was definitely like dead spot on.

Chris: Yeah.

Chris: The whole look, the voice, the kind of attitude, like everything about that is kind of a rip off of The Void.

Jordan: I can't believe that's not talked about more.

Chris: Well, I think Void is just not super well known. It's kind of known more of hardcore horror fans, but I guess it's not big enough. Like Stranger Things is such this colossal this colossal show that attracts more than just horror fans. And it just overshadows a movie like.

Chris: The Void, I guess.

Chris: Yeah.

Chris: How many people's watched The Void and been like the Void ripped off of stranger Things?

Jordan: Anybody who's seen The Void after Stranger Things came out last season? Not anybody. Anybody who's not in the know.

Chris: Yeah.

Chris: Another little bit of news is the writers and the actor strike has kind of completely I said kind of and then completely, but has completely put a stop on any of the production on Scream Seven. Doesn't break my heart. I think the screams are coming out too fast.

Jordan: Yeah, and that happens when they try to rush stuff through for money and then it ends up falling apart. I will say the last one was much better.

Chris: Oh, yeah.

Jordan: Much better than part five. But after besides everybody living, it's going to be hard to top that. Especially pushing it out that quick.

Chris: Yeah.

Chris: They don't even have a script yet.

Jordan: Yeah, they need to make movies around a good script, not decide to make a movie and then force a script. And I think that happens a lot with studios, and it really ***** stuff up.

Chris: Yeah.

Chris: And a big worry, too, is as soon as this strike is over, because they're estimating it's going to last a few months. As soon as the strike is over, they're going to pretty much rush production on Scream Seven, and we're going to end up with this very mediocre movie because it was kind of rushed through. And that's very much a possibility.

Jordan: Yeah, I
