What's up task force Trevor here
0:02
with another preview for movie club
0:04
this week? It's what I've been
0:06
talking about and so excited to
0:08
cover Disney Channel original movie Don't
0:10
look under the bed super fun
0:12
super nostalgic available now over at
0:14
red web pod.com We start in
0:16
Middleburg and my first note is it
0:19
might as well be called city town
0:21
or basicville Because it's Middleburg in the
0:23
middle of the country It's just your
0:25
average town and the movie opens up
0:27
with 14 year old Francis Bacon McCausland
0:29
as a creepy shadow of something is
0:32
reaching out for her while she sleeps all
0:34
the clocks in the house then suddenly
0:36
speed up until their alarms go off
0:38
and Francis and the family they're woken
0:40
up but Francis herself is startled awake
0:42
by a voice saying Franny commenting on how
0:45
darkest still is the families kind of
0:47
going about their business And they're beginning
0:49
their day and everyone watching relives the trauma
0:51
of waking up at 6 a.m. for school
0:53
at 7. Oh my god, yes. Huge flashback
0:55
for me. Well it turns out, it's only
0:58
4.30. Somehow the clock's freaked out and
1:00
Francis goes back to bed knowing that
1:02
there must be some sort of logical
1:04
explanation. I appreciate this out of her.
1:06
Meanwhile, we cut to a sharp toad monster
1:09
up on the roof, was cutting open a
1:11
bag of dog of dog treats to lure
1:13
the dog in. Next day, she's on her
1:15
way to school and Francis finds out her
1:17
friends and neighbors all experience the same odd
1:19
clock phenomenon. They all woke up early and
1:21
they also then realized that all
1:23
the neighborhood dogs are up on
1:25
their respective roofs. It's just a
1:27
neighborhood filled with roof dogs. And
1:29
Francis begins to theorize about magnetic
1:31
anomalies and practical theories. Again, I
1:33
really appreciate that Francis might be
1:35
the genesis of Red Web. We
1:37
don't know. That's true. There's a
1:39
little subconsciousness. Yeah, planting the seeds.
1:42
To speak to Francis's intelligence, I
1:44
mean, she skipped a grade. So,
1:46
you know, we find out shortly.
1:48
And so it's like, oh, okay,
1:50
this is a very bright young
1:52
lady. Absolutely. And they established that pretty
1:54
well. You know, she is a young lady
1:56
here and she's, her attention is pulled to
1:58
a strapping lad in blue. who's watching from
2:01
nearby, he's got some very 90s shades
2:03
on. Oh yeah, he does. Yeah, he
2:05
does. Yeah, he does. And those
2:07
are coming back. She looks for him,
2:10
she looks away, she comes back, he's
2:12
disappeared. Later on in class, a
2:14
mysterious figure with an evil laugh pumbles,
2:16
the teacher's car with eggs inside while
2:19
she's in the class with that
2:21
teacher. The boy in blue is now
2:23
wearing yellow and he's kind of
2:25
creeping behind the skeleton in the class
2:27
to watch and Francis once again sees
2:30
him before he then disappears. After
2:32
school, the teacher comes out, sees the
2:34
car, he's kind of like, who did
2:36
this? There's eggs all over my
2:38
wonderful open-top car, it's a beautiful car,
2:41
and he looks at Francis for some
2:43
reason, and it's clear that something
2:45
is up in Middleburg. So during this
2:47
moment, I was like, no, this beautiful,
2:50
like, old school, top-down, convertible car,
2:52
it's just being egged, and then when
2:54
I got like a close look,
2:56
I went, oh, they covered the seats.
2:58
They had like a seat cover. It
3:01
didn't look close up. I noticed
3:03
the blanket and I went, ugh. It
3:05
was like, it's a gross like blanket
3:07
seat cover thing on it. It
3:09
was like gross material, like really thick
3:12
itchy looking. But I was like, oh,
3:14
they covered it because it's less
3:16
clean up. You know, you want to
3:18
ruin ruin the car? This was meant
3:21
to be on a little bit
3:23
of a fuzzier TV, okay? Right, this
3:25
wasn't meant for the 4K remake. Yeah,
3:27
I mean, it didn't completely fill
3:29
out my 4K TV when I was
3:32
watching it. Oh, yeah. I mean,
3:34
it didn't completely fill out my 4K
3:36
TV when I was watching it. Oh
3:38
yeah, oh 100%. So while on
3:40
her way home, Francis is telling your
3:43
car man. We're not on Nickelodeon, so
3:45
this is the Disney equivalent, but
3:47
that car got slimed. Oh yeah, oh
3:49
100%. So while on her way home,
3:52
Francis is telling her friend all about
3:54
this disappearing boy, while he watches from
3:56
the. rooftop petting one of the dogs
3:58
again in some truly 90s sunglasses this
4:01
time I believe he was wearing brown
4:03
had kind of a fur coat going
4:05
on almost very dog like now her
4:07
friend leaves and she then sees the
4:10
boy creeping across the street and yet
4:12
another outfit very 90s and she calls
4:14
out to him and he says you
4:16
can see me and then a bus
4:19
drives by almost looks like it's gonna
4:21
hit him but he's gone At this
4:23
point we get some quick looks at
4:25
some amazing 90s wish fulfillment pranks. This
4:28
is stuff out of the kids dream.
4:30
The pool is completely turned a jello.
4:32
You got a kid whose legs are
4:34
dangling up out of it. The police
4:37
office is filled with bees. These school
4:39
buses are filled to the brim with
4:41
water like somebody opens the door and
4:43
just a pool of water pours out.
4:46
Oh, and the entire town is tagged
4:48
with the letter B. Who's behind? I
4:50
put this wacky madness. What is it?
4:52
This would be such a gem of
4:55
a throwback, man. It really is. As
4:57
a kid watching that and like, well,
4:59
these are like the most coolest elaborate
5:01
pranks like ever. Because like, even if
5:04
you don't do pranks, like you know
5:06
of them. You've thought of them. You
5:08
even thought maybe if I was do
5:10
a prank, it'd be like this. If
5:13
you're somewhat creative as a child. And
5:15
these are just like top tier man
5:17
jello that pool of jello but also
5:19
how did no one see it when
5:22
they dove in right right dove in
5:24
stuck that's a drown right there
