I think I may have answers for your unanswered questions. In my opinion the CG animation is the key to understanding what's happening here, I have a degree in computer animation and the level I see here is precisely what will be expected of you after your 2nd year as a student in the field. I think either the director, or someone in the family was just getting their degree. I believe the student skipped the classes on green screen and why it's used, I think that's the purpose of all the paper - he is using it for blocking - a CG EMR machine was supposed to be layered on top of the paper one, the sheets of paper are put on the walls for scale and so he can recreate the walls the way he envisioned them in 3dmax or maya. In post reality hit him hard - in order to put a CGI CT scan machine (on top of the paper white one), behind a doctor (in white coat), you will have to manually edit each individual frame - which is a nightmare - and you'll also have to put a lot of work in it, not just lightly retouch a frame messed up by the green screen filter. My guess is the sheer amount of work either scared the person responsible for the animation out of the project, or the "movie" had to be pushed out the door because of the 5 mil investment. My favorite IMDB review of all time resides under this movie by the way, the title is "This movie was not released, it escaped".
You're actually giving the filmmakers too much credit. Those 3D models I'm pretty sure are from a program called "Poser." At most, they bought that program saw there were free characters for it and used that.
It's eerily similar to the work of Kyle Edward Ball, the guy who did the recent theatrical "analog horror" film Skinamarink, and his "Bitesized Nightmares" TH-cam channel. Just long, uncomfortably quiet shots of very little happening.
Lucid nightmares are the worst. I know exactly what you mean. Shit literally keeps me up at night not wanting to go to bed sometimes.

After Last Season feels like a movie from an alternate dimension where something horrible has happened. Something cataclysmic, that changed the course of mankind. The event is never discussed, all mention of it forbidden, but still permeates through every scene. This movie was never meant for our world. It shouldn't be here.

The idea of a serial killer unknowingly chasing some people into a haunted building and then everyone having to deal with a ghost is an interesting premise.
that's the plot of an horror movie, almost positive about it. I mean it's a variation on the "House on the haunted hill" plot, where almost random people are invited to stay the night and a murder takes place, but they think it's a ghost.( depending on the version it can be, in the original it wasn't). Quite a good idea.
It's one of the children from St. Jude's I believe. When RLM gave them the check from the Nukie auction proceeds, they must've allowed one child to be with them on an episode as a little bonus.
I often use "money laundering scheme" as a joke when discussing bad movies, but in this instance I genuinely believe it to be the case. There is nothing that 5 million dollars could have conceivably went into, unless they blew it on an absurd amount of paper and cardboard; then there's the whole director choosing to operate under a fake name, and I can't imagine any other possibility.
For a comparison the movie Moon which came out the same year (2009) also cost 5 million and is an actual good movie. I'm sure a good chunk of that went to pay Sam Rockwell but there was still enough money to pay for passable special effects.
A money laundering movie would be rushed and slapped together but more coherent. It has to pass as a decent film. This sounds more like the creator bragging to hype up the film and make it seem more legitimate.
@@harizotoh7 This guy gets it. There is no actual PROOF the movie budget was 5 mil. What we've got is the "producer's" claim about it, as sort of "this is independent movie made with big budget for independent production". Never mind average indie flick can get you a fully professional production at about 2 mil range and you wouldn't be even able to tell it was cheaply made. I mean fuck, The Void was made for $ 82 500, so not even 100k. Good luck figuring that out when watching it. And The Void has an actual, elaborate hospital set, with lamps, equipment and what not.
Having seen _Nukie_ in the early 2000s, I giggled every time someone said _The Room_ was the worst movie ever. Then I saw _After Last Season_ in 2016 and now I giggle when people say _Nukie_ is the worst movie ever.
You can't walk in to a room with an MRI machine with any metal on you at all. No way in Hell would there ever be a freaking ceiling fan right above a MRI scanner.
My brother passed away yesterday and in dealing with the emotions, I’ve gone back to RLM videos to help distract. He was in the animation industry and loved film and he was the one who turned me to RLM. I’ve been a big fan since and even though no one will read this, I want to thank all the RLM guys for providing such wonderful and hilarious content. Last Xmas I bought him a “Dick the Birthday Boy” shirt and he laughed half-embarrassed and said, “Well I don’t know if I want to wear this in public!” His smile said it all though, he was happy. Miss you William!
We all get to be part of this crazy RLM family thanks to these guys and this wonderful community. I was also going through loss when I was turned onto RLM and I continue to go back to them to cheer me up. We all may be alone at times but at least we have things in common as humans. I hope you are healing 🖖
Based on the placement of the random white sheets of paper on other objects, I'm 90% sure the creator thought all contrasteed and blank white surfaces would work as a replacement for a green screen or markers for special effects..
I think the sheets of paper were put up as markers for all the CGI that the director thought could be put in post production, and the CGI company was like "You want us to do what now?"
I've obsessed over guessing why the director does so many things in this movie since I first saw it in a theater- what 10 years ago now. Like, I have had dreams about them building sets for some reason. I can't stop thinking about it from time to time. They seem to have had a printer because that shot of the outside of the building is clearly a piece of paper with the name of the company written over it probably in MSPaint that they printed and then filmed the piece of paper with a camera. There is also a scene where they are supposed to be reading a newspaper and they cut to a piece of printer paper that was obviously printed off a computer with what they wanted the article to be (I think it's an article about the killer). So, I always assumed they used all the paper for the sets just because they had a bunch of printer paper lieing around for the printer they had for some reason. That was the one major purchase they made next to whatever CGI program they're using. However, given the inserted text over pieces of paper CGI they did use maybe you're right. Maybe they intended to have more CGI in the movie. I honestly never considered that given how bad the movie is overall. Maybe the director doesn't even understand how keying works haha. Can you imagine? The director wanted a CGI MRI machine so they built one out of cardboard and paper so they could CGI one in later 😄
@@cornbredx [ Maybe the director doesn't even understand how keying works haha. ] - Exactly, I'm sure the director questioned "Why would I paint the walls green?"
Director Mark Region has cited The Sixth Sense and The Exorcist as inspirations for After Last Season. The film was shot on 35mm film, and principal photography took place over five or six days in one house with fake medical equipment made from cardboard. According to Region, the film had a budget of $5 million, with $30,000 to $40,000 spent on filming and the majority of the remaining amount spent on the film's computer animated neural visualization sequences.
@@dallasdandigitalproduction393 Aside from being shot on film this has less production value than something made by a high school kid for a class project.
28:47 Rich is so wholesome that upon noticing the onset of a psychotic episode, he creates a makeshift straight jacket for himself for his friends' protection.
I thought "that looks like Rich is in a mental asylum". now imagine if the final episode of the whole red letter media multiverse is Rich in a padded cell wearing a straight jacket laughing and we find out Mike, Jay, Mr Plinkett, Rem Lazar, and everything we've seen were just his insane delusions, they are not real, they are his imaginary friends.
@@pelgervampireduck In my mind, Rich is secretly the Joseph Jackson of RLM. Behind the scenes he's got the belt ready if Mike and Jay don't perform well.
I am trying to figure out why the baby doll is there. I looked up Baby Bink and it appears that the doll is a doll version of the baby from Baby’s Day Out. Why is the doll there?
Really glad to see Macaulay Culkin back on the show! He was a little quiet this time around, but I'm sure he was just stunned by Rich Evans' imposing presence.
When I used to have weekly bad movie nights, we couldn't finish this one. The emptiness genuinely unsettled and disturbed us, like it was a movie made by a goddam ghost (EDIT: I am shocked to learn the movie is actually about a ghost)
I can’t imagine seeing this without any sort of accompanying information or context- that honestly does seem like a fucking living nightmare because this movie is disturbingly stark- like cinema as an art form has never been stretched so far from anything resembling a narrative or any degree of visual stimulation - to quote Jay, “this is borderline experimental”
I was just thinking those sets look like a vague location you'd see in a nightmare. The lighting is odd, the objects are just shapes, and of course the things you can actually tell are supposed to be something just look off.
Can’t believe they remembered the life support aquarium but during the pantry riffing no one made the obvious callback to the Pepperoni Pizza Pie Peephole.
The life support aquarium BotW is a billion time funnier than the pepperoni pizza a pie peephole. The only funny thing about that joke was that they made the website with the peephole
I mean, Rich Evans is the main RLM handyman it seems. He did all the Wheels, the Plinketto board, the nice big table they're sitting at in this very video. I think he'd plan out a very adequate building.
Yeah and I'm sure he'd be able to make a solid nuclear reactor too if he's given proper blueprints and instructions. He's a smart guy with a thing for engineering. Heck he'd probably even be able to get hang of the clothes modeling too if given time.
You step into the elevator of the Richard Evans Building. You press the button for your floor. The Price is Right lose sound effect plays over the speakers. The elevator begins to descend. Too quickly. When it stops, you emerge into a lengthy corridor lined with blank VHS tapes...
I had exactly the same thought when they reached the discussion at the end of the video. I figured it was around 20 mins or so, and was really surpsired that I watched 40+ mins of this. Weird.
It’s because, like in the movie, you cannot form a thread of what’s going on, because the movie scenes were seeing don’t appear to be telling a story or related to each other in any tangible way. Time moves very quickly when things are happening but there’s nothing actually there for your brain to focus on. Alls you are experiencing in this video is the incendiary joy of listening to Rich Evans lose his mind over the film, which is fun. Time flies when you’re having fun. Sitting watching a really boring film that makes sense feels like a long time because you’re actually processing something, even if you hate it.
As a New Englander, I can tell you that we all have 3 pieces of paper taped to the siding of our homes. We've done it for hundreds of years, so we've become really good at keeping them attached all winter long, not "2 days" according to Mike. Also, books are not allowed in the living room. It's punishable by death, if the police were to discover it in the living room. It's a very serious offense.
As a Bostonian by birth, I can confirm this. Though I am disappointed you neglected to mention that cardboard is not an acceptable substitute for paper and comes with jail time
The sets and the bizarre camerawork are actually pretty unsettling in that liminal space way the kids love so much nowadays so maybe this guy was just ahead of his time. Also, the slow zoom-in at 28:47 of Rich Evans laughing maniacally with his arms tucked into his sleeves like a straitjacket is pure cinematic genius.
The reason why it is unsettling is because the movie is about regular people trapped in hell and the audience sees the phony world that the devil has constructed to keep them unaware of the illusion while he stalks them. Seeing these people casually talk about events and items that have no actual substance informs us that they are under a spell. Even the movie's title acronymn is ALS, which is Lou Gehigs disease. A disease that breaks a person's functions down little by little.
It's so weird because when you watch the film there is a LOT of small talk about time and space, where things are in relation to each other, whether going through a town is the same as going to it, while the actual geography actively refuses to make sense. It's not just that there's a grandma house ceiling fan in the background of the MRI room, the director cuts in a close-up to make sure that you can't possibly ignore it even if you want to! It feels impossible that it could be by accident and yet everyone who worked on the film insists it was unintentional.
If it was made in 1978 it would explain where the 5 million dollars went - the cutting edge cgi - and why there was no budget left for the rest of the movie 🍻
I don't know what it is but 0:21 just shows how these guys have been friends for so long and always will be. The classic Rich Evans laugh, Jay chuckling to himself, and Mike pouring a beer with a smile on his face (0:37) that's just so pure and seems to say I'm glad we're all here. Much love, hack frauds.
I remember watching this movie with some friends after I saw the RalphTheMovieMaker review and I'm so glad RLM finally watched it becuase I knew it would break Rich's brain. But the best part about this movie is the Director made a bunch of fake IMDB accounts to give the movie a higher score and reading through the fake reviews while we were watching and during the silent dream sequence my homie just got up silently and left the house for like 2 minutes and when he came back in he saw it was still going and walked right back out and texted me "NO!!"
From IMDB: "Mark Region is a real estate business manager in Tewkesbury, Massachusetts. He watched lots of movies, wrote screenplays and made short films as a hobby for years until his breakthrough in 2009 when he directed the feature film After Last Season." Did he just take all the paper from his real estate office?
This is what actually makes it seem fascinating! Sure, it probably sucks, but I love these weird movies that dare to take new paths instead of doing the conventional stuff on a low budget. This dares to be new.
At 1:16, Rich Evans gives us "Rorshark," which, granted, is no "Folding Chable," or "Gun Chunks," but is still an excellent Rich Evansism, and he gave it to us right away too.
Ever since I saw the DVD was on the Plinketto board, I jumped out of my seat and wished for you guys to watch it. I am so happy you are dedicating a whole Spotlight episode to this. 🙏🏻
Seriously. This movie was such an oddity. I remember when it came out it was a topic of discussion throughout Austin film circles. A lot of people were saying it was a money laundering scheme. So strange
YES! Me too. This movie is wild! It's worse than Plan 9 from Outer Space and The Room combined, and so incompetent you cant believe someone made this for real. It is my opinion- if this movie was made sincerely (which there is debate on)- there is no movie worse than this one. And to top it off it was released in movie theaters!

I think the most interesting thing about the director was that he made dozens of fake IMDB accounts to give his movie a higher score and wrote literal essays on how great his movie was
Now you gotta do "The Time Machine (I Bought at a Garage Sale)" It's the only other "movie" (that I'm aware of) which is as clinically insane, and comes the closest to the mood/tone/vibe of "After Last Season."
@@mistertagomago7974I Googled the sucker, turns out the title is actually "The Time Machine (I _Found_ at a _Yardsale),"_ which may be why you had difficulty searching for it.
This movie is a triumph building upon decades of film history. The cutaways to random chairs and walls are clearly influenced by the "pillow shots" of master director Yasujiro Ozu, pure visual poetry meant to envelope the viewer in a time and place. The innumerable pieces of paper taped to everything, far from an incredibly cheap attempt at set decoration, are deliberately minimalist and stage-like, a la Lars von Trier's Dogville. And the plot, yes, though intentionally obtuse, is a clear echo of the time-twisting narrative and unreliable narrators of L'Année dernière à Marienbad. Not surprised at all these frauds didn't understand it.
26:38 It should be noted that the piece of paper "taped" to the pantry doorway is in fact, a piece of paper with a black paperclip hanging on a nail (or tack!) that was already hammered into the door. (It's where Grandma had the "In god we trust" sign) The fact this scene alone uses a paperclip instead of tape MUST be intentional, only adding to the intricacy of the movie.
We're probably six months away from being able to instruct AI, “Make me a dime-store version of Dead Ringers set in New England” and it will shit out something ten times better than After Last Season.
After watching this I'm so sad they didn't land on this in the Jack Quaid Plinketto episode. I feel like this movie would have melted any guest's mind. This makes Demon Cop look like cinema.
@@DeflatingAtheism I've seen both _Robot in the Family_ and _After Last Season._ Also _Nukie_ and _Rollergator._ _Robot in the Family_ is worse than _Nukie_ because it's basically a more annoying _Nukie._ _Rollergator_ is marginally better than _Nukie_ because it's annoying like _Robot in the Family,_ but lacks the level of stupidity in _Nukie_ and _Robot._ _Robot in the Family_ is like the worst parts of _Rollergator_ and _Nukie_ combined. _After Last Season_ is worse than all three of them. Combined.
And their emotional support dummy, which always has a beer even after Mike fucked up that Rick Baker original one of a kind Gremlins 2 The New Batch crowd shot background Gremlin, a bold choice on Baby Bink’s part
We are ALL eagerly awaiting the Rich Eviano fashion line!!! Also, pretty sure the “FBI” on the “impressive FBI jacket” was haphazardly applied yellow tape lol.
The way the ghost describes his existence (especially the part about basically being able to imagine having arms and doing things with them) sounds a bit like the experience of amputees. Maybe the idea is that a ghost is someone whose whole body is amputated?
Found it, the full quote: “After Last Season is a different type of film. The psycho-thriller blends science fiction, mystery and murder, with a lot of psychological twists thrown in. I don’t really know what it is, whether it’s the way it was filmed or the way scenes and situations are played out, but the movie as a whole is so entrancing.”
From the moment I first watched RLM I knew they were actually what I was looking for. I scoured youtube for movie review content and never quiet found what I was looking for. Then, when Stuckmann name dropped them on one of his videos, I gave RLM a go. I've been hooked ever since and watch everything they create. I felt a bit bad about getting something that I loved so much for absulotely free. So, i'm going to thier patroen and giving them as much cash I can afford. The same I throw at Netflix or Amazon or any other crap i'm paying for. I'm also referring them as much as possible. So if you see a spike in views from The Netherlands, then that was me yo! . You guys are awesome, thanks!
6:35 Fun fact: MRI machines actually make a very loud clicking noise. So this was totally accurate. The way they filmed it however, I still find myself agreeing with Rich's: WHAT?
"I'm having a difficult time moving that chair."
"The bag is too heavy, I can't hold onto it."

There is nothing that 5 million dollars could have conceivably went into, unless they blew it on an absurd amount of paper and cardboard; then there's the whole director choosing to operate under a fake name, and I can't imagine any other possibility.
Most of that 5 million was for the CGI.
@@Zissou42 I don't completely buy that, unless the guy was outright swindled
For a comparison the movie Moon which came out the same year (2009) also cost 5 million and is an actual good movie. I'm sure a good chunk of that went to pay Sam Rockwell but there was still enough money to pay for passable special effects.
A money laundering movie would be rushed and slapped together but more coherent. It has to pass as a decent film. This sounds more like the creator bragging to hype up the film and make it seem more legitimate.
@@harizotoh7 This guy gets it. There is no actual PROOF the movie budget was 5 mil. What we've got is the "producer's" claim about it, as sort of "this is independent movie made with big budget for independent production". Never mind average indie flick can get you a fully professional production at about 2 mil range and you wouldn't be even able to tell it was cheaply made. I mean fuck, The Void was made for $ 82 500, so not even 100k. Good luck figuring that out when watching it. And The Void has an actual, elaborate hospital set, with lamps, equipment and what not.
I just want to thank Mrs. Grimble's kindergarten class on the wonderful production design on After Last Season.
@Kolton You don't get it guys... Those paper sheets are actually save points
“How did they know where to go?”
Followed the paper trail, obviously.
29:00 The image of Rich laughing like a madman with the sleeves of his shirt rolled like a straight jacket is so cinematic.
More cinematic than After Last Season.
I could easily picture him in a white paper padded cell.
His flat refusal to simply accept this movie is everything
I watched that part 3 times in a row 😆
This is like if someone took someone’s play through of The Sims and turned it into a movie.
Sims actions make more sense
Oh my god it really is. Sims 1 too, back when it was truly chaotic
I have to applaud Tommy Wiseau for his amazing dedication to writing and production value
He did pour a lot of money into it after all.
What's line?
Say whatever you want about The Room but at least it looked like it was made by someone who's seen what a real movie looks like at least once
Having seen _Nukie_ in the early 2000s, I giggled every time someone said _The Room_ was the worst movie ever. Then I saw _After Last Season_ in 2016 and now I giggle when people say _Nukie_ is the worst movie ever.
@@Bacteriophagebs Thankfully there will always be something worse than than the worst you've seen.
Grandmas ceiling fan in the MRI room made me have a full blown mike stoklasa laughing meltdown that I've yet to recover from
The best part was when they cut to a shot of it and it wasn't Mike fucking around.
I mean the second they turn on any rating of MRI that things coming off the ceiling in a fairly spectacular fashion oh God here I go again
You can't walk in to a room with an MRI machine with any metal on you at all. No way in Hell would there ever be a freaking ceiling fan right above a MRI scanner.
The magnet is always on. You can’t bring any metal near an MRI at any time. That ceiling fan should be glued to the MRI.
My brother passed away yesterday and in dealing with the emotions, I’ve gone back to RLM videos to help distract. He was in the animation industry and loved film and he was the one who turned me to RLM. I’ve been a big fan since and even though no one will read this, I want to thank all the RLM guys for providing such wonderful and hilarious content.
Last Xmas I bought him a “Dick the Birthday Boy” shirt and he laughed half-embarrassed and said, “Well I don’t know if I want to wear this in public!” His smile said it all though, he was happy. Miss you William!
Sorry for your loss
I'm so sorry for your loss, glad to hear RLM could bring you some nice memories and possibly some smiles at this time
I'm so sorry you lost your brother. Sounds like he'd be happy that you're watching something he loved to help.
Thank you all for your kind words, I truly appreciate it 🥲
We all get to be part of this crazy RLM family thanks to these guys and this wonderful community.
I was also going through loss when I was turned onto RLM and I continue to go back to them to cheer me up.
We all may be alone at times but at least we have things in common as humans.
I hope you are healing 🖖
I'm glad Rich brought his granddaughter to work, it warms my heart when kids spend time with their elders
She is not real. Like this Rich Evans, people are talking about... just a figment of our imagination! :)
Judging by the blank look that's not Rich's granddaughter that's the film's director.
That's just Jay Bauman
@@twalt Hm, and I wondered why I was so attracted to a hack fraud figure! :)
this implies Rich has had sex at least once
Based on the placement of the random white sheets of paper on other objects, I'm 90% sure the creator thought all contrasteed and blank white surfaces would work as a replacement for a green screen or markers for special effects..
holy crap this might actually be it
Are you saying the paper is actually a portal? D:
That was my thought as well. Then he found out he was very very much mistaken and just... didn't fix it at all lol.
I seriously doubt the director was that competent
Until the house.
What if the random shots of things were actually shots of the ghost? So much rewatch value!
Genius
I actually thought of that theory! 😆
The trailer voiceover was all I needed to know this was going to be a ride.
Was that a Scottish accent or just a really excited man
@@deadaccount1342 Yes.
@@Sigillimus 🤣
@@deadaccount1342 I think it was an attempt at Werner Herzog?
His accent is a rough German, sounding more like Schwarzenegger.
I think the sheets of paper were put up as markers for all the CGI that the director thought could be put in post production, and the CGI company was like "You want us to do what now?"
I've obsessed over guessing why the director does so many things in this movie since I first saw it in a theater- what 10 years ago now. Like, I have had dreams about them building sets for some reason. I can't stop thinking about it from time to time.
They seem to have had a printer because that shot of the outside of the building is clearly a piece of paper with the name of the company written over it probably in MSPaint that they printed and then filmed the piece of paper with a camera. There is also a scene where they are supposed to be reading a newspaper and they cut to a piece of printer paper that was obviously printed off a computer with what they wanted the article to be (I think it's an article about the killer). So, I always assumed they used all the paper for the sets just because they had a bunch of printer paper lieing around for the printer they had for some reason. That was the one major purchase they made next to whatever CGI program they're using.
However, given the inserted text over pieces of paper CGI they did use maybe you're right. Maybe they intended to have more CGI in the movie. I honestly never considered that given how bad the movie is overall. Maybe the director doesn't even understand how keying works haha.
Can you imagine? The director wanted a CGI MRI machine so they built one out of cardboard and paper so they could CGI one in later 😄
"I marked all the editing spots with paper. Just color it in so I can use it as a bluescreen. What's so hard about that?"
@@cornbredx ..........

@@cornbredx [ Maybe the director doesn't even understand how keying works haha. ] - Exactly, I'm sure the director questioned "Why would I paint the walls green?"
TBF, you could luma-key the paper. I doubt this is what they had in mind though!
Director Mark Region has cited The Sixth Sense and The Exorcist as inspirations for After Last Season. The film was shot on 35mm film, and principal photography took place over five or six days in one house with fake medical equipment made from cardboard. According to Region, the film had a budget of $5 million, with $30,000 to $40,000 spent on filming and the majority of the remaining amount spent on the film's computer animated neural visualization sequences.
Cocaine and hookers
That dude got ripped off. The UHF cgi scene was probably half as expensive, but twice as a good.
Dude. NO way!! There's no way someone spent $5m on this. I REFUSE to believe they spent even 1/5 of that on the final product
@@dallasdandigitalproduction393 Aside from being shot on film this has less production value than something made by a high school kid for a class project.
Did he also own the company that did the cgi? Is this a Producer’s situation?
28:47 Rich is so wholesome that upon noticing the onset of a psychotic episode, he creates a makeshift straight jacket for himself for his friends' protection.
*Joker theme starts playing*
@Edward Hannah replace the jokers laugh with Rich Evan's
I thought "that looks like Rich is in a mental asylum". now imagine if the final episode of the whole red letter media multiverse is Rich in a padded cell wearing a straight jacket laughing and we find out Mike, Jay, Mr Plinkett, Rem Lazar, and everything we've seen were just his insane delusions, they are not real, they are his imaginary friends.
@@pelgervampireduck In my mind, Rich is secretly the Joseph Jackson of RLM. Behind the scenes he's got the belt ready if Mike and Jay don't perform well.
Rich’s most heroic act was to shield his friends from is own psychotic break from watching pure, pure shit.
The ceiling fan light in the MRI room is amazing
The fact that one of the bulbs is burnt out just makes it better.
That and the radio clock thats just a radio and clock taped together LOL
MRI rooms are well known for having large flimsy rotating metal ceiling fixtures near the huge electromagnet
The shoes randomly in shot is just the icing on the cake

I'm so happy Mike and Rich won the custody battle for Baby Bink
I saw his picture in the paper
I am trying to figure out why the baby doll is there. I looked up Baby Bink and it appears that the doll is a doll version of the baby from Baby’s Day Out. Why is the doll there?
@@yanno113it's the stand in doll prop from the actual movie that they bought.
Really glad to see Macaulay Culkin back on the show! He was a little quiet this time around, but I'm sure he was just stunned by Rich Evans' imposing presence.
When I used to have weekly bad movie nights, we couldn't finish this one. The emptiness genuinely unsettled and disturbed us, like it was a movie made by a goddam ghost
(EDIT: I am shocked to learn the movie is actually about a ghost)
Yeah I always thought it was somewhat unsettling because of how empty it is
it's like the movie equivalent of a liminal place
I can’t imagine seeing this without any sort of accompanying information or context- that honestly does seem like a fucking living nightmare because this movie is disturbingly stark- like cinema as an art form has never been stretched so far from anything resembling a narrative or any degree of visual stimulation - to quote Jay, “this is borderline experimental”
@@nickkiller-0710 literally thought “is this a movie from the backrooms?”
so skinamarink if it wasn't intentional
I was just thinking those sets look like a vague location you'd see in a nightmare. The lighting is odd, the objects are just shapes, and of course the things you can actually tell are supposed to be something just look off.
Can’t believe they remembered the life support aquarium but during the pantry riffing no one made the obvious callback to the Pepperoni Pizza Pie Peephole.
I thought about the Pepperoni Pizza Pie Peephole instantly as well!
The life support aquarium BotW is a billion time funnier than the pepperoni pizza a pie peephole. The only funny thing about that joke was that they made the website with the peephole
I mean, Rich Evans is the main RLM handyman it seems. He did all the Wheels, the Plinketto board, the nice big table they're sitting at in this very video. I think he'd plan out a very adequate building.
Yeah and I'm sure he'd be able to make a solid nuclear reactor too if he's given proper blueprints and instructions. He's a smart guy with a thing for engineering. Heck he'd probably even be able to get hang of the clothes modeling too if given time.
I'm afraid all of his buildings have crippling diabetes.
Let´s not leave out how nicely he have put all those papers in correct order as seen in this new webzone episode.
You step into the elevator of the Richard Evans Building. You press the button for your floor.
The Price is Right lose sound effect plays over the speakers. The elevator begins to descend. Too quickly. When it stops, you emerge into a lengthy corridor lined with blank VHS tapes...
@@pekinobo where can i find that?
This was one of the weirdest episodes, almost dreamlike. The whole thing felt like 15 minutes, not 40+.
Holy shit I actually thought it was 15 minutes lol
I had exactly the same thought when they reached the discussion at the end of the video. I figured it was around 20 mins or so, and was really surpsired that I watched 40+ mins of this. Weird.
It’s because, like in the movie, you cannot form a thread of what’s going on, because the movie scenes were seeing don’t appear to be telling a story or related to each other in any tangible way.
Time moves very quickly when things are happening but there’s nothing actually there for your brain to focus on.
Alls you are experiencing in this video is the incendiary joy of listening to Rich Evans lose his mind over the film, which is fun. Time flies when you’re having fun.
Sitting watching a really boring film that makes sense feels like a long time because you’re actually processing something, even if you hate it.
That is an accurate description of the movie itself. It sounds like a slog to sit through but it FLIES by simply for how insane it is.
Too accurate. When I realized I was halfway through I thought to myself "but I'm only 5 - 10 minutes in..?"
As a New Englander, I can tell you that we all have 3 pieces of paper taped to the siding of our homes. We've done it for hundreds of years, so we've become really good at keeping them attached all winter long, not "2 days" according to Mike.
Also, books are not allowed in the living room. It's punishable by death, if the police were to discover it in the living room. It's a very serious offense.
As a Bostonian by birth, I can confirm this. Though I am disappointed you neglected to mention that cardboard is not an acceptable substitute for paper and comes with jail time
The sets and the bizarre camerawork are actually pretty unsettling in that liminal space way the kids love so much nowadays so maybe this guy was just ahead of his time.
Also, the slow zoom-in at 28:47 of Rich Evans laughing maniacally with his arms tucked into his sleeves like a straitjacket is pure cinematic genius.
I was looking for a comment like that.
It really does look like some liminal space thing!
Ah, I see. This is a sort of proto-Pool Rooms: The Movie
The reason why it is unsettling is because the movie is about regular people trapped in hell and the audience sees the phony world that the devil has constructed to keep them unaware of the illusion while he stalks them. Seeing these people casually talk about events and items that have no actual substance informs us that they are under a spell. Even the movie's title acronymn is ALS, which is Lou Gehigs disease. A disease that breaks a person's functions down little by little.
It's so weird because when you watch the film there is a LOT of small talk about time and space, where things are in relation to each other, whether going through a town is the same as going to it, while the actual geography actively refuses to make sense. It's not just that there's a grandma house ceiling fan in the background of the MRI room, the director cuts in a close-up to make sure that you can't possibly ignore it even if you want to! It feels impossible that it could be by accident and yet everyone who worked on the film insists it was unintentional.
@@johnn.7849 needs more CGI water
Had to look up when this was made because it looks like it could have been made anytime between 1978 and now. Troublingly timeless
If it was made in 1978 it would explain where the 5 million dollars went - the cutting edge cgi - and why there was no budget left for the rest of the movie 🍻
I don't know why, but I've listened to this episode over 20 times by now.
"I can't handle this, Jay. What do I do?"
It’s like if David Lynch directed Total Recall, filmed at his grandmothers house and the prop department only had access to printer paper.
"The film is filled with 90's album covers" may be my favorite RLM joke ever.
It's so apt, lol
16:03 'Corporation' by Prorolis is the soundtrack of my teenage years
Looks like Jandek album covers.

You have been called upon to make it. Don't forget to include Local H, Stabbing Westward, Bullet LaVolta, and Mudhoney.

I remember watching this movie with some friends after I saw the RalphTheMovieMaker review and I'm so glad RLM finally watched it becuase I knew it would break Rich's brain. But the best part about this movie is the Director made a bunch of fake IMDB accounts to give the movie a higher score and reading through the fake reviews while we were watching and during the silent dream sequence my homie just got up silently and left the house for like 2 minutes and when he came back in he saw it was still going and walked right back out and texted me "NO!!"

Did he just take all the paper from his real estate office?
"Unique!" - Rich Evans
"It's a mystery." - Mike
"Oh my God it's over!" - Jay
It's like a live-action animatic. Like sketching out the movie you want to make using actors and vague, rudimentary sets.
This is what actually makes it seem fascinating! Sure, it probably sucks, but I love these weird movies that dare to take new paths instead of doing the conventional stuff on a low budget. This dares to be new.
Damn, Jack had a major glow up recently. He looks years younger. Even got some of his hair back.
Sir, that's just Richard Evans.
At 1:16, Rich Evans gives us "Rorshark," which, granted, is no "Folding Chable," or "Gun Chunks," but is still an excellent Rich Evansism, and he gave it to us right away too.
The random pieces of paper taped onto the walls and props of the RLM set while they're discussing the movie is just...perfection.
The pice of paper pizzeria pantry is now part of my vernacular. Jay laughing for those two minutes was sublime.
The rival pizza joint to the Pepperoni Pizza Pie Peephole

Rich desperately pleading for Jay to either help him understand or give him permission to leave was amazing.

Seriously. This movie was such an oddity. I remember when it came out it was a topic of discussion throughout Austin film circles. A lot of people were saying it was a money laundering scheme. So strange
YES! Me too. This movie is wild! It's worse than Plan 9 from Outer Space and The Room combined, and so incompetent you cant believe someone made this for real. It is my opinion- if this movie was made sincerely (which there is debate on)- there is no movie worse than this one. And to top it off it was released in movie theaters!

TOTAL Sarah thing to say
The piece of paper pantry segment is one of the funniest things this show has ever done.
you could even say it broke new ground
This movie is a triumph building upon decades of film history. The cutaways to random chairs and walls are clearly influenced by the "pillow shots" of master director Yasujiro Ozu, pure visual poetry meant to envelope the viewer in a time and place. The innumerable pieces of paper taped to everything, far from an incredibly cheap attempt at set decoration, are deliberately minimalist and stage-like, a la Lars von Trier's Dogville. And the plot, yes, though intentionally obtuse, is a clear echo of the time-twisting narrative and unreliable narrators of L'Année dernière à Marienbad. Not surprised at all these frauds didn't understand it.
Don't forget the incomparable editing similarly inspired by the French artiste Fuml De'Raetard
The Baby’s Day Out doll holding a beer throughout the video killed me.
The drunk doll had the most salient points throughout this whole review. Pretty hilarious, too. Can they please become a regularly occurring guest?!

@@Jake-gj2xd no, no, the OTHER drunk!
26:38 It should be noted that the piece of paper "taped" to the pantry doorway is in fact, a piece of paper with a black paperclip hanging on a nail (or tack!) that was already hammered into the door. (It's where Grandma had the "In god we trust" sign) The fact this scene alone uses a paperclip instead of tape MUST be intentional, only adding to the intricacy of the movie.
The mystery of the hidden lore of After Last Season goes deeper

Mike: "No, its written by MRI."

Michael Scott making a movie and dressing every set with paper would actually be a very funny gag.
Found it, the full quote:
“After Last Season is a different type of film. The psycho-thriller blends science fiction, mystery and murder, with a lot of psychological twists thrown in.
I don’t really know what it is, whether it’s the way it was filmed or the way scenes and situations are played out, but the movie as a whole is so entrancing.”
