- Finally, we can say we understand the references to Monty Python and the Holy Grail; been hearing them all my life and I just didn't know where they were coming from!

Shortly after this movie came out I was in the Army stationed in Germany. I took a leave and went to visit England. At Customs I was chatting with the Customs agent and could see that he had a sense of humor like my own. He asked what my reason for entering England was (standard question at customs) and I replied "I'm just looking for Castle Anthrax." He looked at me for a moment, smiled and said "We all are mate.".
That’s fantastic!
And yes. We all are. 🤣
AMAZING!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Funny
“Reason for your visit, Sir?”
*”I SEEK THE HOLY GRAIL!”*
Hilarious
In the event you missed it, the ending is a literal COP OUT.
🥁
Monty Python sketches would often end with the police coming in and arresting everyone.
@@daryllyew62 Or Graham Chapman walking in as an army colonel telling them to stop because the sketch has gotten "too silly," which was because they couldn't think of a good way to end the sketch.
Also, the army they used for that scene were kids and university students that they paid the equivalent to $20 to do the scene.
@@Razgriz85 And how many of us would have paid them to be in that scene?
" Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony." - Dennis
"I mean, if I was to run around claiming I was emperor just because some moistened bint threw a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!"
They definitely got the thesaurus out for 'king', 'wet', 'woman', 'throw' and 'sword'
He HAS got a point . . .
"Just cause some moistened bink, hands you a sword..."
@@Superman679 "bint"
The killer rabbit bit is based in reality. There are tons of medieval tapestries that for some reason depict rabbits as monsters killing people.
Look up "marginalia". Basically, Medieval doodles in the margins of books.
As are the insults that the French taunters hurl at Arthur. Those were period correct taunts. Hamsters were kept as food animals and procreated very quickly so they were constantly mating and elderberries were often used to make wine as grapes weren't as common as they are now so if you smelled of elderberries you were a drunk. So he called King Arthur's mother a slut and his father a drunk.
@@ronweber1402 That rant would have been written by Terry Jones, then.
@@Serai3 Yes. He was also responsible for period correct costuming.
I believe it was supposed to be a representation of cowardice. The Knight in armor running away from a rabbit seems to evoke that feel.
Funny thing about the coconuts is that they used them instead of horses simply because they didn't have enough money in the budget to afford real horses for the film. The result was using coconuts which in itself became one of the best running gags of the movie :)
The only scene with a horse was the "Pictures for schools, take 8"; "Famous Historian."
But you're right, budget.
You have the facts...backwards.
The coconuts are actually an old time radio thing before there was television people would listen to radio plays and they would use coconuts to simulate the sound of a horse galloping that and the fact they had zero budget for actual horses is where the pythons got the idea you can find footage of them talking about it
The "no hose' thing that lead to the coconuts was actually more than just a lack of budget for horses. Graham Chapman (who played Arthur, among others) was a raging alcoholic, frequently unable to function at all...plus he was terrified of horses.
@@FleasOfCamels Another one of the unintended happy coincidences was the "chain mail". They wore real head coifs, but everything else was just grey wool sweaters/pants because it kept them the driest and warmest in that cold and soggy U.K. weather.
Monty Factoid: The ad campaign for the Opening Premier was simply brilliant:
"Ticket holders will given a free horse"
Attendees were given 2 half coconuts.
I remember an interview of one of the cast members a few years ago. Apparently the castle where Lancelot killed a bunch of wedding guests was a tourist attraction and they couldn't close it off. The best part is how he explained talking to tourists coming into the castle,
Him; Excuse me but we're trying to film a movie here. Did you want to play a part?
Tourist; no we really need to get going.
Him; we'll buy you lunch.
Tourist; Oh all right then!
So apparently most of the wedding guests were tourists who got paid a sandwich for their role.
I havent heard that before, hope its true cause thats awesome.
@@zeallust8542 It was a random interview on youtube. I do remember it was Terry Jones giving the interview.
"You wanna be murdered by John Cleese? Here's a sandwich."
It's a shame how many people won't even watch this just because it's old and a "small film". The budget for this was ridiculously small, even for the times. They had actually planned to use real horses until they realized that there was no way they could afford them. The coconuts were an improvisation. That's also one castle you're seeing over and over again. I think the most expensive thing in the whole film was the "sh*tty house with a rabbit's head" they had to build just so they could destroy it. Talk about making something from nothing. Brilliant.
two castles :) ... Doune and Stalker
HOW COULD SOMEONE NOT WATCH THIS?! IT SHOULD BE REQUIRED OF FILM ENTHUSIASTS 😂😂😂😂😂
Another really cool thing about the budget is that the financing came largely from bands like Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, and Jethro Tull. Studios wouldn't touch the film, as it was the Pythons' first effort and they were incredibly subversive, so the troupe resorted to pitching it to bands as a UK tax write-off. The whole film was done for slightly over $400 000 in 1974 US dollars (a little over $2.25 mil US in 2022). For comparison, John Carpenter's "Halloween" (1978) had roughly the same budget, and he didn't have to fund an army.
Back in the 80s, me and my friends would say "Run Away!!!" a lot when there was even a hint of danger.
we still say that today!
@@Purple_Buffalo Same! or randomly saying Ni!
@@yeolpirate Ni! Ni!
@@Purple_Buffalo We are no longer the knights who say Ni! We are now the knights who say ekki-ekki-ekki-pitang-zoom-boing!
@@yeolpirate I’ll take note of... it!
The key to Monty Python is that it is just silly. Sometimes it is accidentally clever or deep but it all starts from being just being silly. You are correct about this movie basically being written as a series of individual sketches linked by a vague and largely irrelevant narrative, rather than a story broken down into scenes.
More like the "flaw" is part of the conceit with everything playing out logically.
"The Life of Brian" or "The Meaning of Life" would be a good next step for Monty Python movies
Life of Brian is better
@@bradders9743 Brian is better as a film but Monty Pythons meaning of life is so... Fucked up 😆
Life of Brian before Meaning imo. Might also check out “And No For Something Completely Difference”
Since we are coming up to Easter Life of Brian would go good with the season. I watch it every year at Easter, sometimes at Christmas too.
@@keeperofthecheese Can I have your liver then?
Next: Monty Python’s Life of Brian
Longus digus? 😁
Yes it's a must
2 things. 1.) I wish you showed your reaction to the opening credits. 2.) I love how the ending is a literal cop-out.
Not everyone notices the opening credits, which is sad cause they are super funny
@@Cantmakeupmymindonaname "A m00se once bit my sister."
"what the curtains?" My favorite line of all time.
A classic in my family, as Monty Python has been a staple ever since my mom's childhood. A few times when my dad visited, he'd knock on the door, I'd ask "who is it?" and he would say, "it is I Roger, the Shrubber!"
For whatever the reason, one of my favorite bits is that quick exchange of, "who are you?!" "I'm your son." "Not you!"
They originated the style of never completing a joke, and that is now called "Pythonesque". No story is ever complete. If you can ever get a chance to watch the stage musical adaption "Spamalot", you'll have a blast.
Spamalot is awesome! :)
"And now for something completely different."
My university had the Spamalot musical one year while I was attending, but I missed it, and I kick myself every time I remember it.
I love Spamalot 😂😂😂 I sing “He’s not dead yet” all the time 😂😂😂😂
Spamalot is great. One of the groups near me has incredible stage actors and thats how I saw it. Small event, great actors, comfortable seats, it was awesome.
The wizard's name was not actually Tim, but John Cleese forgot his line and grabbed for the first name he could think of. It was so funny they decided to keep it in the film. :D
Oh wow 😂😂😂
Lol
One of very few ad libs they ever allowed, along with the line "he hasn't got shit all over him" which got a huge laugh on set, and was left in just because it was so funny.
That is hilarious
I think John Cleese debunked this. It was in the script.
"Bring out your dead!" was a real thing during plague times, men with carts would travel through towns collecting bodies to be disposed of. The black plague made Covid look tame in comparison, there were several huge outbreaks in Europe and Asia, the one in the movie is from the crusades era (around the year 1000) but the big one in the 1660's killed about a quarter of Europe's population so everyone would lose family and the dead carts would be on every street.
The black plague is seriously terrifying. Not the disease itself, but what it did. (That said, the symptoms are horrifying too, but its treatable now) Despite popular belief, the disease still exists and people still catch it from time to time.
Covid was hardly a pandemic in comparison to what the black plague did to europe.
"As the horrendous black beast lunged forward, escape for Arthur, and his knights seemed hopeless, when suddenly, the animator suffered a fatal heart attack. The cartoon peril was no more..."
SAVED BY THE FOURTH WALL!!!
😂😂😂
The whole castle anthrax scene was so hilarious. "I can handle them single handedly.There's only a hundred and fifty of them."
Love Carol's frustrated "Oh shit!" at the end.
@@Orlor Sir Gallahad: "I bet you're gay." Sir Lancelot: "No I'm not!" Funny, 'cause in the stage musical, he is.
@@rickardroach9075 - I love Cleese's pause before he denies it like he was really offended by it. Perfect comedic timing.
"Bring out your dead" was referring to the days when plagues would kill off scores of people daily. The dead were carted off to mass graves as a public service. And the "She's a witch" scene points out the bizarre logic that sages, soothsayers, and 'learned men' used to explain the world around them. -- As always, what makes Python so wonderful is how willing they are to poke fun at the truth.
I've been watching a lot of movie reaction videos lately and I'm always amazed hearing younger people expressing how surprised they are at how good a movie is from the 70's. They always say 'I can't believe a movie this good was made in the 1970's!" What they don't understand is that the 1970's was probably the best decade overall for movies.
Both the 70's and 80's were the golden age of comedies.
@@robstoll7542 The 80s sucked for movies, because it was all capitalist garbage.
@@annaclarafenyo8185 I considered mocking you, but your sophmoric statement did that for me.
@@robstoll7542 "Sophomoric", keep thinking that, bootlicker. 80s comedies were 'Police Academy' and 'Private Benjamin', they were lousy compared to the Monty Python and Mel Brooks of the 70s. Monty had "Fish Called Wanda" which was okay, and Brooks had "Spaceballs" which was mediocre, they were both declining, likely due to drug-use. The good comedies returned in the 90s, with Bean/Johnny English, and Ben Stiller's 90s movies.
@@annaclarafenyo8185 lol
Monty Python's Flying Circus was their television show before this. The show was multiple skits in each episode which leads into the episodic nature of this film. This movie was financed by George Harrison and members of Pink Floyd among other musicians who were fans of the show.
Flying Circus was a huge hit in the US at a time when very few British TV shows - let alone sketch comedy shows - made an impact over there. It just goes to show that we humans love surreal nonsense. Flying Circus was also a hit in many other countries, particularly Germany, to the extent that the guys even converted some of their sketches into German for that audience and performed the entire skits in German.
and How to Irritate People came before that.
Wasn't the George Harrison thing for Life of Brian?
@@RoseOfNight I stand corrected, thank you.
@@jeffmartin1026 Yes, George Harrison did step in with a loan to complete Life of Brian, when asked why he said, "I just wanted to see it." After that, Harrison created his own studio, Handmade Films, and executive produced Terry Gilliam's first post-Python movie, Time Bandits.

Monty Python and The Holy Grail is an expression of pure joy on film you can enjoy for life. It's borne the test of time and inspired countless people. A true classic.
A Møøse once bit my sister... No realli! She was Karving her initials on the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given her by Svenge
"He's alive!"... "Well yeah, he ran away." My thoughts exactly.
As funny as it seems, running away is one of the most effective strategies. Bruce Lee used to teach it as a basic of his martial arts system - never fight if you can avoid it.
I love watching people stare at the credits waiting for the ending 😂
Lmao 🤣 I did the same
I like to imagine 90% of the films budget was spent on Tims pyrotechnics
I had heard that they spent so much money on Tim the Enchanter's needless explosions that they couldn't afford horses which is where the coconuts came from. Such a good trade. Also the cheer of "RUN AWAY!!" is amazing.
"The ferocity of the French taunting took them totally by surprise..." I have been laughing at this movie for decades and it never disappoints. ---- Ni !!!!
Really my only hope is that they watch Life of Brian next.
Yeah, they kinda have to.
Life of Brian is even better.
Sir Robin's minstrel (Neil Innes) also did a mockumentary with Eric Idle called "The Rutles", which is a spoof of the story of The Beatles, which includes a load of songs he wrote which are recognisably close to actual Beatles songs, but different enough to be songs in their own right.
I was laughing so much watching you're reactions! I love that the ending is a literally "Cop Out". This movie is so amazing to just blurt out lines and hear them back from random people. I'm always happy to find my fellow Monty Python people.
As soon as I see Lancelot running from far off, I start laughing uncontrollably. Gets me every time.
27:34 The French guys in the castle saying "You English K-nigets", is the way the French Soldiers are trying to pronounce "Knights"
Life of Brian next please! I personally think it's their masterpiece.
The Sorcerer was supposed to have some convoluted name but Cleese forgot it and just made up Tim, and the others went for it.
The ending is literally a cop out.
LIFE OF BRIAN is a perfect follow up!
Neil Innes was the bard, he and Sir Robin did a mockumentry about the Beatles called the Rutles. He wrote some great Beatles parody songs for it.
They also released a Rutles album
My favourite is the bit where the animator "Terry Gilliam" had a heart attack, I died of laughter.
Let's hope it doesn't happen to me since I am also a stop-motion animator...........oh......wait.........aaaahhhhhrrrrggg! 'dead'.
I watched a print of this film at a revival theater, and the soundtrack was missing. The organizers were STUNNED when we filled in the entire soundtrack ourselves.
I just love watching the confusion of people reacting to Monty Python and the Holly Grail for the first time LOL!! You should try LIFE OF BRIAN from the same guys, it's as silly and funny but easier to follow.
Same 😂😂😂
7:39 "It's a fair cop" = "Okay, ya got me."
Fun fact: The score is 100% library cues. Somebody complied all the sources and put 'em online years ago; I think there might even be an official release, but it might get confused with _The Album of the Soundtrack of the Trailer of the Film of Monty Python and the Holy Grail_ which is a comedy album rather than a soundtrack album.
The "epic overture" is here: czcams.com/video/PHDycUXzNs0/video.html
I saw Holy Grail in a theatre around 1983(ish); I have the record (cassette) they released which has a ton of original material. My brother asked literally a week ago if there was any sense keeping any of our cassettes and that was the only one we kept. I should burn it to CD (but my cassette/record to CD burner machine broke a year ago). Also, if you like horror type movies and found Parasite interesting there was a movie call The Host (2006) made by the same director as Parasite. I watched it years ago - has Doona Bae in it as the failed archer (and the child was Go Ah-Sung who was in "A Brand New Life" and another Bong Joon-Ho movie "Snowpeircer").
I actually saw the The Host when I was a kid and I loved that movie, I still have to watch parasite at some point!
My favorite Monty Python movie. Seen it many times.
The direct spiritual successor to this is Terry Gilliam's "Time Bandits." Gilliam was a member of the Python troupe.
I think Gilliam was the Bridge Keeper and a few other short parts.
I love any Gilliam movie, and Time Bandits is excellent, but I'm also a huge fan of "Erik The Viking"... few people know about that one unfortunately. Directed by Terry Jones, starring Tim Robbins... definitely worth checking out :-)
The only American member, born in Minnesota. He will be 81 this year. Let's hope we don't lose any of these guys anytime soon. RIP Terry Jones & Graham Chapman.
@@FluxNomad678 Also the animator (who died)
Not quite. The spiritual successor to this film was "Jabberwocky", Gilliams first solo directed film.
Terry Gilliam was the animator, and the first coconut guy. He went on to direct many movies, all brilliant. (Except they are a bit dark and cynical.) He seems to have a fixation on the loss of fantasy due to modernization, which is a wonderful theme. "The Fisher King" is his most approachable, featuring Robin Williams in a fantastic performance. Jeff Bridges also shines. "Brazil" is 1984 on acid.
Thanks for a laugh filled reaction to this low budget masterpiece. We need that.
The most quotable movie of all time!
A school performed this whole thing on stage. Amazing to me that they got away with every scene...
Lmao 🤣
_"...it is a silly place..."_
Hi Curtis and Sebastian Von Pumperfist! I LOOOVE this movie! Monty Python were the masters of insane random silliness. I love how the movie ends with a literal cop-out.
*The ending is so Monty Python.* That's if you seen their British TV series.
...and they were forced to eat Robin's minstrals. And there was much rejoicing.
😂😂😂😂😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣
“She turned me into a newt!”
“A newt?”
“I got better.”
Great reaction! You seem to really enjoy this movie. There are two other Monty Python movies, which would be awesome to see you react. The next one is Life of Brian which is the best one, it pokes fun at the story of Jesus. The last movie is The Meaning of Life , which is a series of skits inspired from various stages in people’s life, it’s the more shocking and over the top of the three.
The director of Holy Grail, Terry Gilliam also did Time Bandits, Brazil, 12 Monkeys, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and The Imaginarium of Doctor Panassus. All very interesting and weird movies which you might want to check out.
You guys should watch
The Evil Dead (1981)
Evil Dead 2 (1987)
Predator (1987)
After suffering a fatal heart attack, animator Terry Gilliam would go on to direct some wonderful movies. Best. Leo.
The puzzled look at the end... THAT IS the shared experience we ALL had the first time...
For those of us who grew up in that era and watched the British Comedy Troupe - Monty Python's Flying Circus weekly episodes on some broadcast PBS station late on a Saturday night, we totally get the absurdity & baked in humor of this movie...
And hopefully you saw the opening credits, as good as the rest of the movie.
In 1976 we saw this as the second feature with a children's musical movie called "The Blue Bird" with Elizabeth Taylor. At the part of the Knight being dismembered half the theater suddenly got up and left.
"Look, there's the man from scene 24." - Arthur King of The Britons.
😂😂😂😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣
I'm 66 years old and have used this line about a zillion times in business or personal life "well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know."
I was raised on this movie, been watching it since I was six, and only at 35 have I realised that when they're saying Ni to Arthur, he's miming his horse going crazy from it.
I remember playing the pc game for Monty Python and the Holy Grail as a kid on my dad's computer. XD
It seems to be hard to find episodes of the classic TV series "Monty Python's Flying Circus" these days, but many of their best sketches are re-enacted in the compilation film "And Now For Something Completely Different." It's Monty Python's first movie and well worth watching.
I'm happy to see you guys laughing and enjoying this movie. Difficult to watch your faces after Requiem For A Dream
"Sir Robin is Batman" - I see what you did there... : )
18:02 i literally had problems breathing cause I laughed so damn hard at this scene... brillant xD
I love how the ending is quite literally a cop out.
"Pie Jesu Domine...Dona Eis Requiem THWACK!" 💯😜😂
“Jesus grant me rest”
Well you would want rest from smacking your head all the time!
This is such a great movie to drop on people because it's unassuming and that makes the first time seeing it so much better. I hurt myself laughing at it
"A dinky house" LOL It's a garden shed!! X-D The English keep their gardening equipment in it! The wooden rabbit is a reference to the Trojan Horse, used by the Greeks to enter the city of Troy.
The credits are a gig part of the opening
Life of Brian has got to be your next one, it's fantastic
great reaction
I saw this for the first time when I was about 17 in the early 90s. I am jealous of you seeing this for the first time! It's just so silly!!
(One of) my favourite moments,
"Who's that then?"
"Dunno, must be a king."
"Why?"
"'Cos he ain't got shit all over him."
And the entire "Castle Anthrax" and Sir Lancelot act is just SO FUNNY!
I love your reaction. This film is so silly, you can't stop laughing. (Watch it often enough, and you'll be quoting it to your mates in general conversation.)
The bring out your dead part was in reference to the Black Plague which took out 50 percent of the population of Europe.
The budget for this movie is about $27.50 and you can really see it in the Coconut Shells, cardboard castle cut out, and the Stuffed Animals playing the Super Villians.
Boys I've watched this several times with you . Best reaction from you Guys was the Death of the Historian , Curtis unable to laugh because of the Tea in his mouth , soon after Sir Robins minstrel singing of him running away from Danger . My absolute favorite was The loop of Lancealot running across the field to the Castle. I dont know if you notice the pun to his name and why he killed so many . His name implies the reason he does this Lance - a - Lot . Must of watched it with you guys over 10X. Guys please do Robo Cop 2 lots of action Robo has another Cyborg to battle . Excellent !
Nice pick again, amazing movie!
That's what I love about this movie, it breaks all the rules of film making, it doesn't make any sense but is so original. They use coconut halves instead of horses because their budget was too small to afford horses.
The thing that very few people put together is that the end makes perfect sense... Its a literal 'Cop out' :D
Thank you so much for every video..... You guys are helping me through a tough time 💙💙💙🙏🙏🙏
How funny, I never get tired of seeing reactions from this film ending. Disappointed, confused😂😂😂
Such a bonkers film. When people ask me my favourite colour, I always quote this film, ‘blue…..no…yellow’😂
The bridge the black knight is protecting is literally a foot bridge over a ditch that's about 6ft across and 2 feet deep.
18:21 Every Skryim player's moment: Killing everyone on sight.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The best Dungeons & Dragons article I ever came across was "[Your Name] and the Holy Grail" in The Space Gamer magazine. The authors took many of the jokes from the movie and explained them in D&D terms. King Arthur had the power to summon an army once a year (the final scene); a character who seemingly died could "get better" one hit point at a time; if you obtained a pair of coconut halves, you could travel three times faster than simply traveling on foot (although technically you still were), etc. The Killer Rabbit is semi-officially known now as the "Vorpal Bunny" (after the D&D Vorpal Blade, which decapitates enemies, itself from Carroll's "Jabberwockey").
Despite the silliness, I think the general background, architecture, and sheer dirtiness depicted here is the most realistic version of the Dark Ages on film.
This movie is so damn funny, I remember my older cousins showing me this. Nearly pissed myself laughing as a kid lmao
there's an "original" ending where they reach a British department store called Harrods, and Arthur finds the Grail going around in it because it's said that you can find everything in there
You didn't show the opening credits... I hope you didn't miss them. It's worth going back to catch :) Great reaction, I'm having fun watching you guys watch things.
After this movie was made it was discovered coconuts spread from island to island by floating on the sea, so coconuts do in fact migrate
What? I've been encouraging you guys to do more comedies and then you do one of my favorite comedies? Okay, I'm late for dinner right now but I'll be back in a couple hours to watch this...
Edit: You're right, Python movies are like a bunch of sketches strung together. As a few other people have said, it's because they had a sketch show on the BBC, which is totally worth checking out. And that's the great thing about period pieces like this, you can't tell it was from 1975 because it was supposed to be 932 anyway. Except for the historian bits, but it's still hard to tell. So pleased you like it!
Watched a lot of reactions to Monty python lately but yours was closest to my own, thanks! 😂 I'm now waiting for you to watch "the life of Brian", "the meaning of life" and "and now for something completely different"
The life of Brian is my favourite
When Concorde got shot by the message arrow (pfffft! Message for you sir!) - that was my email sound for many years. I extracted it from a VHS tape of the movie.
Smacking the cat against the wall is a joke that repeats 2 or 3 times in the movie. Like it was just part of normal village life.
You may want to try Joe Versus The Volcano or Young Frankenstein.
I'm jealous that new generations have so many great movies to watch. 😊
Life of Brian is a must watch. 🤣
This movie is best seen with a bunch of people who have seen it andxquitung along with it.
George Harrison helped finance this.
I also like that the six Monty Python actor play most of the speaking roles. The dead animator is also the co-director and Patsy, the first guy using coconuts He actually did all the animation. The one American of the six. Terry Jones, the other co-director, was Sir Gawain who was testing to see if she was a witch. No one ever comments that he keeps lifting his face mask because the two bars on it run directly in front of his eyes.
The giant rabbit was based on the Trojan horse. The "btingvout your dead" but was based on the plague at that time. And the throwing of animals was based on early germ warfare. Dead diseased animals would be thrown into castles under siege to get everyone sick and easy to defeat.
You are correct. The script was written by the six members. Jihn Cleese and Graham Chapman were one team, Terry Jones and Michael Palin (the chaste) were another team. Eric Idle (who ran away) wrote on his own and Terry Gillium came up with the animated bots. Each wrote skits, as Monty Python and the Flying Circus was a skit comedy series. (Highly recommend it. Or at least And Now For Something Completely Different, the movie made almost entirely of reshot skits.) They then worked together to make the skits work with each other.
When I worked nights shifts at a company I won't mention, I used to roll a cart around to pick up test boards. I used to clang on it and yell "bring out your dead" 😂. About 3am
you guys should watch the opening credits to this
The lady who's rabbit they borrowed was soooo pissed when they returned it stained with stage blood.
