Maybe it’s just me, but the illusion of shooting day for night is immediately lost when the pilot is wearing sunglasses the whole time.
Yes, but it made it night for him at all times! Way to get into character!
Never heard of the song "Sunglasses At Night?"
@@dubuyajay9964 Corey Hart. That pilot ain’t no Corey Hart.
and the shadows...
It isn't just you. That is a dead give away.
You shouldn't doubt yourself King.
You're 6 foot to me homie.
"Tom has spared no expense..."
Neither did John Hammond, and we all know how well that ended.
I know right!?
😂😂😂
Life finds a way.
That movie is so stupid if people can shoot whales they can shoot dinosaurs.I'm in hippie environmentally friendly dinosaur city so I can't shoot anything because I'm too little to do something.Where the **** am I going with this?
He spared expenses with Nedry. 🙄🖥️🌴🦕🦖
As someone who's a sucker for "whodunit, murder mystery dinner parties" this movie does seem like something I would enjoy a little unironically.
You need to lay off the chardonnay. 😂
You’d like it. I saw this movie in the early 1980’s and I specifically remember two clues that tell you it was Michael Gambon’s character. The most important clue was that he tried to flee as soon as he learned that he was being hunted - before any evidence of there even being a werewolf. He was the only ‘guest’ that didn’t need evidence since he KNEW there was a werewolf present… himself. So he was immediately aware that HE was the one being hunted. This part was left out of Mark’s review.
The second clue came when Gambon’s character tried passing around the silver candlestick, knowing that it was actually harmless due to the lack of wolfbane pollen present. As a werewolf, he would likely know this.
There is another more subtle clue when they are discussing their backstories. His behavior was different from the others. While the others were defiantly defending their past behavior, or even bragging about it; Gambon’s character is more cagey and elusive.
It’s worth a watch and clever at times.
Murder By Death (1976) and Clue (1985) are two of my favorite spoofs of this genre.
On a side note, I love that Mr. Hammer Alumnus Himself, Peter Cushing, starred in The Beast Must Die (1974) and Sir Alec Guinness was in Murder By Death.
If there’s even a slight nod to a Star Wars “Degrees of Separation,” my brain will find it!
💚🤣🤣💚
@Ethan PowelsAnd that's ok. What ever makes you happy 😉
In my last year of high school I had a girlfriend who was part of a clique who were really eccentric. They were a mix of goth and hipster with steampunk thrown in for bizarre measure lol. Anyway they would get together to do those murder mystery dinner party games like two or three times a week. They also did Live Action Roleplaying. Both much more fun than they ought to be. Would love to do this again.
Tom is apparently a big game hunter, but I'm guessing he went to college for botany, had a side-gig as a Leather Dom to pay his tuition, and eventually made his fortune in silversmithing. He then looked for a career where he could use all his skills, and the only match was werewolf hunter.
Peter Cushing knows, like, A LOT about werewolves. Seriously.
Well, he fought everything from mummies to Dracula (the latter like 5 times, and even as his own great-grandson) so he should know. :)
He should invest in vintage 🎤 microphones because the software he uses to give his voice effects does not match the original
He apparently also knows a little about Death Stars and rebel scum...
Peter Cushing has more exprience to blow up planets.
Can you imagine having to plan your life around a few days a month because of something out of your control??!! Madness
I see what you did there.
Nice.😂
Lol
Thank God I'm a man!
hahahahahahahahahah, brilliant.
Hahahahaha!!!
I love how much more frequently we get videos from Mark than when I first subbed. Truly one of the hidden gems of TH-cam
Yes but they’re no where near as good as they used to be. He used to make clever in-depth reviews that were hilarious (back when the show was called bad movies). Now he resorts to basically narrating the movie and making a few comments here and there about what happens that are not funny.
"He is not just a Leather Daddy, he is a leather King." LOL
I for one never suspected that Grand Moff Tarkin and Ernst Stavro Blofeld were werewolves.
My new favorite hobby is getting baked and watching this show.
You never disappoint, Mark.
Me too. Rifftrax is great too
Right on
Can we all just take a second to appreciate the expert chaptering in this video? A different chapter per topic, all with descriptive names for easy surfing. That's true dedication to one's craft. AND he subtitled the whole thing manually, so you know it's right.
This has taken more than a second.
I have this movie on a DVD released by Dark Sky. There's a pretty informative commentary track by the director, Paul Annett. There are two nuggets that have stuck with me: Peter Cushing and Charles Gray did not know how to play chess. Annett relays anecdote of one of the actors asking Peter Cushing for advice on acting. Cushing simply replied, "When you are done with your line, close your mouth."
Ha, those are the two I'd most expect to know how to play chess.
@@The_Kentuckian Yes, I was taken a back. Peter Cushing and Charles Grey did not know how to play chess. I like chess. I am a middling player, but I do like the symmetry of chess.
Man I'd love for someone to remake this with Idris Elba as Tom. I feel it's a great concept they never followed up on and a super bad ass and progressive role for a black protagonist in a 70's movie, the dude's basically Batman meets James Bond meets Van Helsing
...meets an Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy graduate.
I reckon Clooney or Pitt would be better
Make sure to explain Tom's obsession with werewolves.
Instead of killing himself, he should have accepted this new way of hunting. He could go on to hunt other monsters.
Idc if it’s a black or white guy just a good actor
Coming this summer to McDonalds, the Mark McNugget meal. With each meal you get one of several assorted map feathers. Collect them all!

Mark inserting himself into the scenes and the stuff he says is sooooo damn funny!! Thanks for the amazing content!
Best part
It is so funny
Yeah my favorite was the one from that movie "Invisible Child". You know how many times I would be making a pizza in my kitchen and my friends (stoned as can be) would be like "yeah that's cool TJ, is that pizza almost done?" 🤣
@@LSSJTHORthat one was hilarious lol I like the one in the attack of the ugly bird where he’s showing naked pictures of himself the most 😂
So glad you mentioned that you were gonna season the leg cause honestly, you almost lost me there.
I seriously cant understand why mark doesnt have WAAAAY more subs...what in the actual fudge...the world has gone mad best movie review channel other than rlm....and i mean that
18:30 SPOILERS: The werewolf was Dumbledore! Yes, that's the actor, Michael Gambon, who played Dumbledore in 'Harry Potter' after Richard Harris died.
No shit
9:55 - the man knows his guns about as well as he knows comfortable sleeping attire... he grabs a scoped rifle for indoor self defense, guaranteed to deafen himself in the off-chance that he somehow manages to aim at someone. Obviously this guy is one of those jackpot lottery winners you hear about that somehow go broke within a few years.
like givingbackzach?
Who else hits the “Like” button before you even watch the video because you know it’s going to be great?
Guilty as charged.
Not me. Some are good, some are OK, some are bad.
I *always* hit like before pressing play, I'm liable to forget otherwise. If I don't like what I see, I'll remove the like or give a dislike.
I will now,lol.Mark cracks me up.
@@mikehunt4986 back when the show was called bad movies…the good times
It has Peter Cushing so hey, can't be all bad...one hopes. Cushing was a truly great actor.
That entire , ' Of course you should try eating human flesh if you get the chance. ' speech was... ...quite a topic before dinner. Yeesh.
Reminds me of that dude that lost his leg in an accident and since it was recovered and not that damaged he decided to serve it as tacos to some friends
Mark: "Hey guys, welcome back toooooo the show."
Me: Yes!
If I had a nickel for everytime I've held a dinner party in order to find a werewolf, I'd have 15 cents. Three times seemed like enough.
You must tell us all about it, Sir.
@@dubuyajay9964 ...over dinner, no less
Good grief - this brings back memories. Saw this film in the cinema years ago when it first came out. My memory tells me I rather enjoyed it then. After all it had the legendary Peter Cushing and Charles Grey in it.
"Don't just say that, actually follow through with it ...." Mark is one funny dude, I always look forward to his video inserts...
Tom’s job is clearly “designer of super boss leather clothes” and he deserves the mansion and helicopters and everything else based on what we see.
Yup. Glad to see Hugo Boss put their World War II days behind them.
Well that's me relieved to discover this movie and it's werewolf break actually exists. I remember watching it years ago but I'd pretty much convinced myself that I'd imagined it during a drunken session of late night TV
LOL, I do believe my drunken mind has created a few actual "werewolf breaks" at times. Thank goodness, I needed the break.
@@Brian_Grant "Is the werewolf the drunken man sleeping on the couch? Perhaps adding new meaning to the term, 'hair of the dog?'". 🥴🐺🍺🥃
"Mark McNuggets" needs to be on a shirt now. Any true fan is going to rock that.
Also, my wife and I call your show "Double Dub-M's" for W.M.W.M.
I'll see myself out.
How it say 23 hours ago? Get wrecked
Calvin Lockhart had some killer outfits in this movie almost as cool as the one he had as King Willie in Predator 2.
I unironically love this movie. It's just so unselfconsciously "out there" in a way that films don't seem able to do anymore, but then I'm a fan of that kind of movie - stuff like "Psychomania" - that's just batshit crazy and runs with it.
The whole "detective" / "werewolf break" thing feels tacked-on, though, as if the producer decided to add a marketing gimmick in post, but there's a certain William Castle type schlocky charm to it. For some reason I can never seem to remember who the werewolf actually is - presumably because of the fake-out with there being two of them - but that helps a lot with the re-watchability.
Anyway, you've got to love all the 70s "wakka wakka" music and blaxploitation vibes - and it has one of those wonderfully downbeat endings that were seemingly a requirement in 1970s genre flicks, with (SPOILER ALERT) a nice bit of karma for Mr Big Game Hunter: his final kill being himself. Sheer poetry :)
Psychomania was a blast the first two times I watched it. "What are we waiting for?"
@@VonWenk I only realized fairly recently that "Psychomania" was written by the same guys who wrote "Horror Express" - another one of those crazy one-off 1970s horror films that I grew up loving. Very different film, but equally crazy and memorable in its way :)
@@blatherskite3009 I had no idea Horror Express and Psychomania shared writers. I do enjoy both of them, especially Horror Express.
I love this movie as well, the Werewolf is a bit shit but the premise is good and so is the cast. Psychomania is so much fun, not heard anyone talk about that movie ever. It is weird as hell but I can't help but love it.
'I unironically love this movie.'
You could have just said "i love this movie'.
I love when Mark is like "oh my god, look at his hands"
The funniest part is that I never see the werewolf doing something bad lmao, like they didnt even say or show why the werewolf is such a big problem or why the rich guy want it dead. They never show a flashback where the werewolf kill his parents or kill some villagers or 'something'. And its never explained why or how the rich guy got all those people in there against their will and how/why he suspect the werewolf was among them. And I mean, yea, it killed the security guy, but he shot it first, so it was self defense tbh. And the old guy in his room was probably killed by the werewolf wife, who btw got infected completely by accident, so it wasnt it either. And the dog, well, the dog attacked first too.
I think I'd try hunting the leprechaun. I'd get to be in Ireland and when you managed to catch one, it has to grant you a wish. Win-win.
Leave Hornswoggle alone! What did he ever do to you? 😂
@@unterdessen8822 Aw man, it reminds me, I used to watch that kids' tv show when I was young, in the early 90s. "L'ilôt de Lili" (Lili's Small Island). The host of the show had dwarfism. The concept was similar to Mister Rogers in that every day, new kids were invited on Lili's island while Lolo (the dwarf) was... I don't know actually.
Anyway, 20 years later, I see his face on the news - Paul Cagelet. Arrested. Possession and distribution of child material. My childhood was a lie!!!
So yeah, I swore I'd hunt every one of them as a payback.
@@fatkart7641 Wow. That should be the plot of the next Terminator movie. I mean, the story is already better than T3-6. "SKYNET sends a Terminator back in time to save Fat Kart's childhood by eradicating the world's entire little people population. Including the African pygmy tribes." But you know, that your side would be the villains in this, right? 🤣
@@unterdessen8822 I can live with that. Now tell me how much you need and make that movie happen! :D
@@fatkart7641 Aw, I'm not Hollywood. My ideas would be much shittier, if I was.
"So if anything happens I'll be ready AND fashionable in the blink of an eye" lmao
There used to be choose your own ending movies. Some theaters had these clunky remotes on the arms of the chairs. The audience would vote for what they wanted to see next. I'm assuming this movie was shown in those types of theaters.
And you know he's done this whole dinner party/werewolf thing a lot, bc you can tell his wife has had enough after he says, "Someone here is a werewolf."
"Clue?"
In the sprit of mental health month I just wanted to say it's people like Mark that definitely need to be added to the heros of the world list. The laughs Mark brings me help so much no matter how shitty the day is I can turn to some of my favorite TH-camrs who have consistently for years brought joy to so many and know ill get to laugh. And for free too, mad respect man u deserve every cent you make.
May you and all my favorite youtubers have great secuss for as long as possible ❤️ I hope you Mark and all the others are happy and if you're not i hope you're seeking help because you absolutely matter.
Well said and I totally agree.
I guess we all need to be a little crazy sometimes to enjoy Mark's zany reviews ;)
@@steveharvey2102 🤪 it definitely helps haha 😄
I've been binge watching fanboyflicks for the last week after recently stumbling over it. Love it.
I don't see Santa and the Icecream Bunny (1972) . An absolute must do if it hasn't been done yet.
I hate the fact that Mark doesn’t have like 1mil subs. His channel is seriously so good.
I've actually seen this movie before watching the review, and I like it.
The cast is really good (Hammer legend Peter Cushing, Anton Driffing, Charles Gray, Calvin Lockhart) and if you keep attention from the get-go, you can actually pinpoint who's the werewolf: couldn't be the professor and Tom's GF because they bot made an appearance when the werewolf had its dinner with the pilot; Davina appeared soon after so she couldn't be either (she was also very pissed when they served her blooded raw meat); the Cannibal was always quite happy with touching silver and he also kisses it, so he's excluded; the old man and the mustaches guy were the only ones remaining the but the former was killed. Also Mustaches was the one suggesting holding silver to prove they're not werewolf because he had his hands covered.
So, as I said, everything stack up.
You forgot to mention Michael Gambon
You and RLM are keeping my interest in TH-cam alive
the fact that both charles gray (james bond, rocky horror) and peter cushing (star wars) were both in this film kind of blows my mind.
Why does Mr. Hairywrists sleep with his face covered by his blankets?
I have to admit I do have an absolute soft spot for these kind of movies.
I mean the rich guys crazy leather outfits alone make it worth it.
I actually liked The Beast Must Die when I watched it, especially the werewolf break and the lead character being Black and not a stereotype. Stupid and ineffective, but not a stereotype.
He did things backwards it feels like lol
The local tv station where I grew up played this movie as a late-late-show movie for years at Hallowe'en. I am embarrassed to say I have seen this film far more times than I can count when I was a kid.🎃
That gimmick concept is actually interesting. It fell short but still. They could have had actual clues put in, and even done several versions, like Clue. I know the budget wouldn't allow it but if all limitations were gone.
Oh wow, I once caught this movie randomly on TV and never forgotten it. Such a weirdly entertaining movie
Remember watching this with my sis in the 80s.
Man I love when there's a new vid alert from Mark.
Don't forget Mark... never get rid of "welcome back TO the show"
It's the best.
That last skit "Would you eat a part of me as a burger" made me laugh out loud. Good show, sir, good show.
"That's a rather tender subject. Another slice?"
Okay, so I don't know if anyone has said it yet, but here it is. The easiest mythological creature to go hunting for is the Loch Ness Monster. All you need is about $3.50 unless the monster tries asking for more, but you might be able to talk him down to $2.50
I think it’s cheaper ($0.85) if you are wearing traditional Scottish garb while standing close to the loch with Goldfish crackers.
Mark, I’m glad when you cut to playing Tom…
You played him as yourself. 😄👍🏼👍🏼
Avoiding complications.
You should totally make a series of just you adding yourself into movies I love Everytime you do a skit on one of your reviews
I love these little bits you've been doing where you insert yourself into the movie. Hilarious! Keep up the great work!
5:29 I would so fail the first "NOT A WEREWOLF" test. I'm lookin' at that steak and thinking; "DAMN that's perfectly cooked." My mom once made hamburgers for us two to enjoy during her visitation time, and she was like; "These hamburgers might be a little rare." The thing was still cold. THEY WERE AMAZING.
I watched this on Svengoolie, and was thoroughly entertained.
Also, getting pollen in your drink is how you get spontaneous fermentation going, and as we all know, spontaneous fermentation, (or "SPON FERM" as I call it) creates some very delicious happy accidents.
Alright, I've gotta go take a werewolf break... oh, I mean, a totally regular, normal, non-werewolf related break.
lol the sleeping in the nude/rude awakening tangent was spot on
19:48 Yes, the older guy Calvin Lockhard is grilling is Charles Gray, who was the Criminologist in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", was the third on-screen Blofeld in "Diamonds are Forever" (1971) and had a single scene in the previous Connery-as-Bond film "You Only Live Twice" (1967). Like Peter Cushing and Anton Diffring, Charles Gray needed to be in a better movie.
His whole career has been a strange journey.
@@hostofwords How strange was it?
Peter Cushing is so cool. I read, prob on Wikipedia, that Carrie Fischer felt funny saying “I recognized your foul stench when I was brought on board” bc he was such a sweet man, and actually a bit self-conscious about body odor! and subsequently he was really mindful of hygiene and Carrie said something like he always smelled fairly of lavender and fresh laundry! 🌿
I love the emphasis on "to". Great way to start yet another great vid! Seriously! Thanks!
What about the butler?!? He serves the dinner, but then he's forgotten? What, suddenly he's no longer a suspect? He's not even listed in the credits..
Not only an entertaining review, but I must also comment on your insertions - they are just getting better and better with each one you
These are always, always so good. I get so excited when I see a new video posted, and look forward to hearing you welcome us back to the show every time.
I love when you self-insert in the old movies, it's so good
I'm sad that I haven't seen most of these movies, but I'm glad you're here to give us all the rundown.
Actor Calin Lockhart by plays the lead, Tom, also played a character in the Poitier/Cosby film "Let's Do It Again" 1975 named BIGGIE SMALLS - He may be the inspiration for one of the most legendary rappers of all time.
A Rumour went round our school claiming that this was "THE MOST TERRIFYING FILM EVER MADE!". And so all my schoolmates went to the Town Hall where it was being screened. (Our local Cinema had recently burned down). The place was jam packed.
On an entirely unrelated note; I used to work at The Town Hall, after school, helping the projectionist. I was paid by Audience Numbers. I love this Film.
I see other content like this that’s nowhere near as good & gets more views..I hate how a channel as amazing as yours doesn’t get the recognition it deserves..thx for all your hard work 👍
Your channel pleases the elderly. I just discovered you, now I'm on a binge. Great stuff!
If the guns were filled with blanks, then why did he act like he was struck by a bullet? Lmao.
He played along to screw with the guests (who had no idea what was going on). After they scream and run to check on him, he starts laughing.
Every time when another skit pops up I remember how much I treasure this channel 🥺
i love how Mark is trying to convince the cast to cannibalize him, but only a little.
The part that gets to me is how the werewolf is played by just about the single happiest dog ever committed to celluloid.
A bullet tip, a primer and a quarter load blank were responsible for the disaster on the set of "The Crow". Blanks are not to be taken lightly.
Loving the format bruh. Keep it up.
Broo!!!! I saw this in the hospital hopped up on pain meds, I had so much fun watching it and could never remember what it was called.
These are brilliant going back through them as well, and it will never not be funny when Mark puts himself in the movie
Mark, you would be super fun to have a beer with and just talk movies. And, for a big brother sighting DURING this video, I got a YT ad for Keto Chow that involves a werewolf. Creepy.
My favorite thing about Mark's videos is the green screen bits and he keeps doing more and more in each video
Oh, hi mark!
Woah! Jan (the Werewolf) was played by Michael Gambon, AKA; Dumbledore!!!!
This movie used to come on a lot on a late night show called Fritz the Night Owl. They used to also show Gamera versus Gyaos a lot on that late night show.
If I had unlimited resources, I wouldn't waste my time hunting anything. I'd commission a perfect, shot for shot remake of Predator with an all midget cast. That is my singular eccentric dream.
I think The Asylum film company would take like $50 to make this real, but you’d have to include Eric Roberts in the movie!
Just noticed that his machine gun is a Swiss-made Rexim-Favor. These were used as blasters in ALIEN and Star Wars.
Best show on TH-cam. Thanks Mark !
This a classic they didn't even bother with effects they just sat a dog at the table lol
Amazing that Mark has been in all these movies, but I've never noticed
2 things, but I'll bring up #2 at an undetermined date. First thing is that the way you describe this movie would be a decent TH-cam show(Edit: TH-camshow by the director or writer on a channel like Omelet). OK. I can't wait for #2. I love your bits when you talk within the still you cut out. I wish you did more of them... it's probably my favorite parts of watching your show(I have fallen asleep to playlists of your show just to listen to your snarkiness knowing that I have seen most of your episodes(I watched you and Brendon Tenold for 2×30ish hour solo trips from TX to CT and CT back to TX this past Thanksgiving 2021.) and they are the moments I look forward to most). You could incorporate them into more of your episodes but you would probably need to hire an editor just for those jokes. The plus side is that you can do more of the jokes, while still leaving the outro for outtakes. 😁
I love Werewolfs , and just got home at 2am from my shift at Domino's.
I also found the McRib at Circle K gas station.
Best. Night. This Week.
🤘🐺🍖🤘
Genuinely one of the funniest things I've ever seen on TH-cam
This channel is definitely in my top 5. Thanx Mark!
I remember watching this in my pre-teen years. Only saw it once. CityTV in Toronto had it as their Friday ‘Late, Great Movie’ And that’s pretty much the audience for this movie: pre-teens who can’t see an R flick in the theatre, but are allowed to stay up late on a non-school night.
Our "hero" reminds me of Jefferson Twilight the Blackula hunter from the Venture Bros.
I've always been impressed with the way you make yourself blend into the movie when you do your skits. It looks identical every time, how do you even get the lighting right?
Bennington was also the narrator in the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Great video once again Mark!!!
And Blofeld in the Bond film Diamonds Are Forever.
And Mocata in the excellent Hammer Horror flick The Devil Rides Out. Which is a really good film that hardly ever seems to get mentioned anywhere.
"This man has no neck!"
At 7:42 I was expecting you to say, "because it's the 70s!"
Ernst Stavro Blofeld - King Willy and Count Dracula all in the same movie? Wow, just wow.
Any party with Blofeld and Dr. Frankenstein is bound to go south at some point or another.
A VIDEO from MARK!? Possibly HUNDREDS of years OLD!?....
That's my best impression of The curse of oak Island mark edition
Loved your commentary on Curse of Oak Island. Next time do a monologue on Ancient Aliens.
I heard about Bill C-11 man. I'll keep watching your videos, giving them liked and comments as much as I can.
