PARTY PLEASER:
Melanie & Melvin travel back to the early 2000's to summarize the family-friendly cult-classic Disney Adult horror film The Haunted Mansion! From enjoying detailed sets to the generally fun aesthetic of a haunted house, the two kick off Halloween Month with excitement and laughs!
Topics:
- (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 33-minutes continuing their discussion on modesty (which started in the previous episode) and looking into two passages from 1 Corinthians for some biblical insight, further asserting the complexity and nuance to clothing, modesty, communication, and social interaction. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)
- Before getting into the movie, Melanie & Melvin describe their experience with The Haunted Mansion ride.
- The cast of normal characters in The Haunted Mansion feel straight out of an 80s or 90s dramedy where one of the parents is a workaholic and everyone else puts up with it. For a film released in 2003 this feels wildly outdated.
- Discussing the aesthetics of the mansion, from setting to atmosphere, and how it's ostensibly the best part of the entire film. Also, Melvin shares his frightening fascination with houses.
- There's never a part in the movie that outright "wows" but the middle where each character is exploring different parts of the mansion is definitely a high point.
- The transitions in The Haunted Mansion go hard.
- Melanie & Melvin discuss if ghosts are real, because it's October and that's what October's all about!
- Based upon a few criteria, Melvin wonders if an original cut of The Haunted Mansion contained a more poignant narrative wrestling with drama, romance, and racism that was trimmed for the sake of marketability.
