The Numbers section has a mistake - I'm wrong about the other two episodes with the same count and gender breakdown. Child's Play 3 and TCM2 both have 8 kills each, not 10. Apologies for the error!
We'll let this slide just this once, lol
You Guys are incredible 😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
Its ok
The Mummy 1932!
Love you James
I love how Ron Perlman just got a random letter from a random film student and was like: "Yeah, I'll do it."
I mean he also accepted a voice acting role for an at the time indie game series only 3 years later, so he seems like the kind of big name to just appear somewhere
@@AmyCherryLMAOWait which one? That's super cool lol
@@haveagoodday7021 Fallout
He was in black ops 3 zombies and payday 2 as well.
Some actors just really fucking love acting - they'll say yes to anything. Ron Perlman is clearly one of those actors.
Ron Perlman is a fascinating actor. He's starred in at least two movies where almost the entire cast spoke a language other than English despite not being conversant in either Spanish or French. In 'Cronos' he was supposed to speak Spanish but it was changed because his attempts were unusable. in 'City of Lost Children' he learned his lines phonetically. That must be terrifying but he did it and he's amazing in both.
He's badass
Acting... Acting never changes.
Guillermo del Toro rarely disappoints, and this is no exception. I'm so glad James has the opportunity to cover these weird, lesser known films, especially this one, considering how it launched the career of one of the greatest directors of all time.
Agreed
Got that right.
James' channel is dying. 😂😂
Next week is INK
Lesser known in the US maybe. He said it won like 9 academy awards in Mexico.
Lovin' the weird stuff! del Toro is also amazing, I wish we got his third Hellboy movie, apparently they're making a fourth one without his input again.
Boo to making another Hellboy without del Toro. Blahhh, just let him to it right again!
James' channel is dying. 😂😂
The first two were very good, never watched the third and never wanted too, i heard bad things of it and making a fourth along that same route seems rather questionable
@@Kaiserreich2.0 It's a reboot really not a sequel. And it is more close to the comics, which is why people that haven't read them didn't like it as much. I loved it honestly.
@@Schnipps i'm not saying that you cannot enjoy or thats its a problem to be closer to the source material, i simply didnt like it very much
Del Toro is one of those directors I want to just hang out with and talk about movies for hours.
Also the line "Jesus walked on water just like a mosquito" is beyond brilliant.
This show is a great source of entertainment and comfort for my partner and I. It's become a kind of ritual of ours to watch the new video each weekend together and it's helped me to develop a greater appreciation of the horror genre (coming from someone who has mostly avoided them for the majority of my life).
I led with this because my partner just got back from a long weekend out of town, and the first thing he wanted to do when he got back was sit down with some food and watch the new Kill Count. You and the whole Dead Meat crew do such amazing work in terms of research and writing, we love every bit of it. So thank you James, and thanks to everyone else on the team for bringing such great videos each week. We're loving all the weird stuff during the strike, and honestly would be excited to see more things like this every so often even after the strike is over (we know they're probably a bit more work, especially when getting into foreign language films).
Once again, thanks for everything! We can't wait for next week!
Thank you so much for the lovely comment, Matthew. Made my night.
The "estoy estupido" bit is great because it should be "soy estupido", but using the wrong verb makes the joke funnier. If that was planned, fantastic. If not, it all worked out lol
It is funny that James should joke about getting "scarab powers". There is a direct reference to Cronos featured in Blue Beetle, when the grandma is flipping through channels she pauses on that exact scene. I was so excited when I saw that
I guess sometimes the new DC movies do something right.
@@MK-yy4rsit was a good movie
That's what I was thinking too
Can we all appreciate the pure professionalism and capacity to be feeling adults from Del Toro and Perlman?
Non-ironically, the first Hellboy movie is one of my top 20 favorite movies of all time.
If there was a new Hellboy movie tomorrow from Del Toro staring Perlman, I'd be first inline to see that.
You’re not alone James it also took me awhile to realize this was I vampire movie. I just assumed that it was a cannibalism film
This movie existed?
I thought it was about clocks
James' channel is dying. 😂😂
@@haiz768the fuck are you talking about
You think this was the only vampire movie he made?
Honestly I think it’s super cool and admirable that you guys are still making Kill Counts with the extremely stringent guidelines you have to stay supportive of the strikes. With the two massive breaks you guys have had to make over the last couple of years I WAs genuinely worried were in for another one. So it’s such a relief as a fan that you guys are doing everything you can to press on.
It may sound dumb but this videos are legitimately THE thing I can look forward to most every week. They kind of mean a lot to me, which I hope doesn’t sound weird or sad lol
I'm loving weird era Dead Meat. It's fun to see other media covered and some lesser known films. I'm pumped for Ice Nine Kills next week!
Fr! It's rlly bringing me back to the channel :)
Wait James is doing ice nine kills
Channel has always covered lesser known films.
@zashimi1345 I know, but it can be a worry covering these kind of films that people won't watch/appreciate the videos like they do the bigger/more mainstream stuff, so I'm showing my appreciation.
@@slaytahharwood417 Yep and I'm super excited about it, I fucking love Ice Nine Kills
6:43 Ron Perlman and Guillermo Del Toro actually worked together eight times, they worked together on the 2014 animated movie "The Book of Life" where Perlman played the villain and Del Toro was the producer. Just letting you know.
Guilhermo Del Toro has to be one of the most fascinating directors out of there. The man went from this mexican gem to gives us masterpieces like Blade 2, Hellboy, Pan’s Labyrynth, and The Shape of Water
And Pacific Rim, which is just good stupid action fun. Plus, he's absolutely adorable in the BTS of Pacific Rim.
@@erinfinn2273 I forgot he made the first one which had Idris Elba as one of the main characters, that was a fun action movie, to this day here’s hoping Del Toro and Perlman finally make Hellboy 3
All of his movies are exceptional except Shape of Water imo, that movie was a swing and a miss with alot of oscar bait.
i know who guillermo del toro is but i'm just not familiar with his work except that horrible pinnochio movie he made boy did it suck i mean the stop-motion animation was good but the screenplay was not
If you haven't seen it, he also did an animated movie called Book Of Life, which is about El Día de Muertos. Fun movie.
Nobody can convince me that Ron Pearlman is not a shaved caveman
Neanderthal
Funny enough he plays a very convincing caveman in Quest for Fire
Bro, he looked cursed without the goatee
I love how you can see Del Toro's style in all of his films yet they can be so different from each other. Like we have this tragic, somber take on vampires, you get metal vampire action in Blade 2, you get 50s giant bug movie feelings with Mimic, straight up kaiju vs mech in Pacific Rim, and so many more
Yeah, and The Strain is a vampire contagion/plague series (with some cool creature design elements built upon from his Blade 2 vampires). Love how Del Toro addressed the European vampire mythos in all kinds of way! ^^
"Estoy estúpido"
This is so much funnier than it would've been if you had used the correct verb 😂
I've always loved Del Toro. It was always my personal opinion that if there was ever another Gremlins movie that we should have Del Toro on it
“Yes, we can be our own sponsor! It’s just good BUSINESS!” had me on the floor laughing. Love the Business Guy accent and love you guys!
It's easier to tell thanks to hindsight, but I feel like the alchemist dying by a stake like object in the chest was a hint about Cronos being a vampire film.
That and the dead guy hanging upside down to be drained of blood.
@@user-se7dj6he3e he said he didn't even realize it was a vampire film until towards the end
sorry@@Forgottensnapdragoni don't even know why i said that i should have read the whole comment so i deleted my comment😅😥
@@user-se7dj6he3e it's okay😄
God I still remember watching the first series of Friday the 13 kill count when I was in high school. James and Chelsea please know that both of your playful energetic love of horror has made me embrace this culture so much. I know I’m just a random CZcams comment but I love you guys with all my heart 💕
James saying "BUSINESS!" will never get old.
I know the non-movie stuff you've been doing has been weird and challenging to navigate, but you've done an excellent job. You've really gotten creative with your choices and it's been a blast to watch. Thanks for all your effort. We love you bunches!
Covering non major studio films is cool. Getting to see different films I wouldn't normally know about is sweet. INK music videos on a Kill Count = awesome. I can't wait!!!
😂"I don't speak Spanish "I know let's go eat "😂😂😂
I love seeing a movie including Ron Perlman right now especially, since he’s such a strong supporter of the strikes :D
I remember seeing this movie returned all the time when I worked at a library. Last year I finally watched only knowing who the director was. It blew me away! Gullermo NEVER disappoints.
Mentioning Gorgio Romero's Martin really makes me want to see a Kill Count on that considering it's a very different type of vampire movie than what most people assume to be a vampire movie.
"the transfiguration" from 2016 is another very unique vampire movie!
Same. One of my favorite movies of all time
Lol lol Every time James says "Business!"
It's like Clarence Williams saying "the shit!"
😂😂😂
Oh my gosh I hope this is implying we'll get more coverage of Del Toro. I adore his films
Me too dude ,his horror has more feels for sure
i would love a whole guillermo del toro series of his horror movies. he has so many good ones
Weird Era for Dead Meat. However, you guys are knocking it out of the park. You and your team should be very proud!!
Gracias James and the Dead Meat gang!! Love seeing you cover Latino horror, its super underrated. And GDT's Cronos is def a highlight. Un fuerte abrazo!!
1. I am really into the ‘weird era’ of Dead Meat already, can’t wait for more!
2. Haven’t even watched the vid but I’m sold when I saw the thumbnail and my first thought was ‘wtf is that Ron Perlman??’
If this movie were set in the modern day, Jesús would've taken photos of the notes like a high school student taking notes in class.
I love Ron Perlman he was just on The Fighter And The Kid Podcast and talked in detail about this movie and Meeting Guillermo Del Toro and their relationship and how this movie set up his role of Hellboy
He's also done a lot of voicework you know, don't forget that
Brendan schaub is a racist.
I was expecting Zoran to say during the sponsor, A ThanksKilling 4 Kill Count and laugh maniacally as Business Janes cowered
It's nice to see Dead Meat cover a Del Toro movie
Will James get around to covering Crimson Peak, Mimic, Shape of Water, or Hellboy someday?
If he wants more vampire stuff from Del Toro maybe he should cover the strain the book series or maybe the TV show I haven't decided yet
@@matthewpuddock1976 The book is great, but the tv series was meh. I fucking hated Zach.
I'd definitely love to see Mimic. Just the first one though
I've emailed the request line for Mimic
I have a feeling I might be known around here and the Dead Meat reddit as "that Crimson Peak person" but at the same time, it would be a great one to cover if only because of the behind the scenes of that entire house set that was built for it!
Thank you so much for doing the Ice Nine Kills videos. I love your cameos in those videos. Can't wait!!
The Tales of Arcadia franchise will always be my favorite del Toro works because they’re half the reason I gave most of the others a try.
wait guillermo del toro made that i had no idea
Yeah, his name is literally in the title
sorry@@twinswords79dualblade84 i didn't know that cause i never watched the show
@@user-se7dj6he3e If you are curious, I highly recommend it! It’s all on Netflix.
It’s called Tales of Arcadia (3 shows and a final movie)
Guillermito and Ron are always an amazing duo. 🧡
Like Burton and Depp
Its so weird having been around for the beginning of dead meat when it was small all the way to how huge it is now especially with the writers strike causing it to feel like small and weird deadmeat era again. Love how far weve come
I am laughing like a lunatic in my bathroom today.
I’m really loving these different kill counts!
I loved the allusion that James made to Klaus Nomi, when he referred to the Clown that was present at the party that Jesús attended as "Clocks Nomi", hehe.
I've watched Cronos a long time ago and loved it! Really digging seeing being covered in a kill count. It's one of those obscure movies that once you watch it, you star seeing references to it in many other medias, just like Suspiria.
I still believe that the way Dio got his powers in Jojo's Bizarre Adventures is a reference to Cronos, for example =P
It reminds me of the scarab Jolyne is given with the stand arrow in it too.
i have never seen or even heard of this movie until i saw this video
Oh nice! I remember catching part of this on cable as a teenager and being so intrigued, but I couldn't track down the name. Thanks for helping me rediscover it!
Watching Kill Count is honestly a great way to watch movies with behind the scenes extras
I thought I was the only one who knew this movie for a while as a tween having found it in an bin of old vhs tapes at my granny's house (yes, it felt very cursed but was very much blessed). As a person who watches stuff like Svengoolie, channels like yours helped me find my favorite community to engage about insane little details in all the horror content of the world and put cold little smile on my pale grim face. Now who wants to set up a go fund me to support an investigation and purchase of one of Guillermo's lost scarabs? Poor dude's dream of owning one was also in the kill count, damn
You should cover Emesis Blue. Absolutely FANTASTIC movie, the fact that it's made in Source Filmmaker and takes the cast of Team Fortress 2 and makes a gripping psychological horror/thriller movie still blows my mind.
He actually did!
i absolutely love this series. in a lot of ways i've grown up with it, because i started watching at 12 or 13, and i'm now in my first semester of college. i absolutely love horror in theory, but i'm also kind of a wimp and i'm prone to certain types of paranoid thinking, which can make it bad for my mental health to engage with it directly sometimes. this channel is absolutely incredible for giving me a safe avenue to continue engaging with horror media, and i probably would've never grown to love horror as much as i do without the kill count.
thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to love this genre as much as you do :)
Love seeing these videos for movies I never would've watched or even heard of otherwise!
Oh how i love your Sponsorsegments/Merchsegments their always bloody awesome, James!
Job well done. These have been some of the best kill counts
Love this channel for years I tell all my friends about Dead Meat and I love we finally get merch 😂
To future commenters, James’s patrons gets videos early that’s why there’s comments before the video came out
I know that already😵💫👍
@@alexanderhopkins7837 well then, they're not talking to you
...
This is making me realize that, unless there's a common conceptual ancestor in the vampire mythology or the study of alchemy, Mira from Killer Instinct 2013 is essentially a send-up to Cronos since she's a vampire who has an intro animation where she latches a _silver_ scarab to her hands, alchemy is a major facet of how some of the supernatural creatures in the setting exist, like Saberwulf the werewolf.
Honestly, I love that Cronos is being covered during Hispanic Heritage Month. Representation matters & Guillermo Del Toro is one of my favorite directors!
Any morning waking up to a new Dead Meat is a good morning! But now Im hooked on the MK story line, definitely loved that last one!
Cronos was fucking phenomenal for a first film. It cemented GDT as a master of his craft.
Thank you, James for covering this movie. I truly believe that this one and El Espinazo del Diablo (The Devil's Backbone) are the most underrated Del Toro's films. Truly believes these two movies served as foundation for what it is to me, his magnum opus, El Laberinto del Fauno (Panth's Labyrinth), which although not a traditional horror movie, I do believe it's where Del Toro really used everything he learned making those previous two movies and putting it into action on Panth's. Everything feels way more polished.
Nothing makes me happier than when I see a new Dead Meat episode has been uploaded
11:37 I always appreciate a Klaus Nomi reference.
Cronos was my very first Criterion Collection purchase. When they evetually released the Trilogia de Guillermo del Toro I immediately upgraded to the bluray, and it is now the prize of my collection. I am so excited to see his Pinocchio getting the same treatment in December
do not waste you're time with guillermo del toro's pinnochio film i saw that film and it sucked it was the worst pinnochio adaptation i have ever seen in my life and i still can't believe that, that movie won an oscar i mean what were they thinkin
@@user-se7dj6he3e You are either trolling or completely out of your mind. Considering the username, I presume the former. If you honestly think it is the worst Pinocchio adaptation then I question if you've ever actually watched literally any other adaptation, or any movie for that matter.
😡HOW DARE YOU@@jonathanstmartin I AM NOT TROLLING BECAUSE I HATE INTERNET TROLLS I AM NOT ONE OF THEM AND I NEVER WILL BE, I AM NOT OUT OF MY MIND I AM AS SANE AS I EVER WAS, I ALSO HAVE SEEN A LOT OF ADAPTAIONS OF PINOCCHIO AND I HAVE SEEN GUILLERMO DEL TORO'S VERSION AND IT WAS TERRIBLE THAT'S MY HONEST OPINION EVERYONE IS ALLOWED TO STATE THEIR HONEST OPINION AND THAT ONE WAS MINE AND I HAVE WATCHED A LOT OF MOVIES THANK YOU VERY MUCH YOU UNCULTURED SWINE😤SO BACK OFF
@@user-se7dj6he3e Yep. Definitely a troll. One with crap taste too.
James’ house looks so nice In the ad for this video with Zorin! I think it’s so cool how James and Chelsea are making such a good living from their awesome work
I got out of the shower and sat down to wait for the new kill count to come out. Perfect timing for the mornings as always!
I think you guys have been doing a great job adjusting Kill Count to support the strikes. I'm sure it's been a lot of work and stress for you guys, but I hope when it's all said and done that you feel it was worth it, not just because of your union support, but also on a creative level. Being forced out of your comfort zone can really pay off.
These are honestly some of my favorite Kill Count episodes
Probably one of the best merch ads I’ve ever seen. Great kill count as usual!
Cronos got my heart beating. Seems like it has triggered all my senses in one go. No wonder everyone's hooked about it.
well the guy who stuck the cronos device to the right left side of his chest sure got his heart beating😂
I don't know why, but the friendship between Ron and Guillermo brings a tear to my eye. Dudes rock fr
Truly love the insane look James has when wearing the business! outfit
11:37 Clocks Nomi is a criminally underrated joke
Thank you!
"What are you… supposed to be from The Future, or something?"
Don't worry James you're doing an amazing job and I am really enjoying the weird stuff for sure!! 😊
Seeing a clip of Del Toro and Alien Baltan hugging in the intro of a Dead Meat video is one of the last things I expected to see, but here we are! Love it
Hey James! It’s been a while since I’ve watched your channel! Me and my brothers are a big fan of your vids!
Our favorite vids you did were the purge. Thank you for being our favorite spooky CZcamsr ❤❤
Golden scarab that bites people with its legs and turns them into vampires? Sounds like Del Toro was into JoJo's Bizarre Adventure
I’ll always watch a kill count no matter what. Love the kill counts
The “I was not going to jail” comment was so funny to me
Can't wait for the Blair witch project kill count it will be awesome!!!
if there's any people that die in The Blair Witch Project
"The spirit is willing, but the flesh is full of glass," that futurama reference was great to hear
Love your content keep up the great work
There’s actually a stand-alone sequel to Cronos! It’s not a Del Toro film, but ‘Somos Lo Que Hay/We are what we are” is still amazing! Highly recommended :)
Dang doing a rewrite every day for 8 years is what you call dedication,
I’m a huge fan of Del Toro movies so to see sort of his directorial debut is amazing to see! Thanks! I’m loving this weird era!
The “Business” was real NCP. Love it James!!!!
Ron perlman is peak human being, and played the embodiment of dead in adventure time and del torro is a peak director
What a pleasant surprise. Thank you everyone at DeadMeat.
12:25 When you're jamming to a song and somebody calls.
I get it from Perlman's point of view but as a kid whose dad had recorded the movie from TV I still love 'Ice Pirates' to this day. It's got surprisingly solid world building. In a galaxy where water is a commodity in itself it's shipped in giant blocks of ice that are shipped across space. Watch out for Ice Pirates though. It's a mish mash of all kinds of influences. They wear armour and fight with swords but everyone has lasers and ships that fly through space. It's both very much of it's time while also being kind of timeless. It is a parody and cheesy but I love it. It zips along, it's funny, cheap and amazing. If you watch this channel I feel like you're the audience that might appreciate it. Or I'm wrong. Still, check it out if you can find it.
Always need more of James's Mr BUSINESS character in the kill count. I love him 😂😂
I wonder if dead meat would ever make a kill count series for the blade movies. Makes sense since it they have some horror elements and vampires and whatnot
And Don’t forget that Perlman was previously on the Kill Count as Johner in Alien: Resurrection
Hooray weird era! You're absolutely nailing it; be confident in how much of a rock star you are!
There's no fucking WAY you just referenced Meet the Feebles. One of the most obscure references you've ever made. Props for the knowledge
I guess James forgot that Ron Pearlman was last seen on the kill count of Alien 4
Aww, cmon Ron, Ice Pirates is silly, but f*cking hilarious.
18:34 The tie's actually really good, for the past 100 years or so it'd been commonly accepted that yku should tie a bowtie slightly unevenly to show it's not pretied
Love this. This is what I was hoping for during the strike. This is a perfect movie to cover
