Ready or Not (2019): The Horror Comedy That Gets Better Every Time You Watch It | feat. KT Baldassaro
Ready or Not 2 is in theaters — so we went back to where it all started. Brian, John, and filmmaker/critic KT Baldassaro (@MovieRuntime) dig into the 2019 original and make the case that it's one of the smartest, funniest, most satisfying horror comedies of the last decade. A bride. A devil-controlled game box. A mansion full of rich lunatics. Hide and seek to the death. What we cover: Why this is more satire than horror and why that makes it better — Samara Weaving's all-time performance and why she carries the whole film  Why Adam Brody's Daniel has the real character arc, not Alex  The old money vs new money class war hiding underneath the comedy  Whether the game box is actually random — or whether the devil picks who dies Alex as the true villain of the movie  Whether the sequel can possibly match the original's ending  CHAPTERS: 00:00 Cold open 00:20 Welcome and introducing KT Baldassaro 03:00 First impressions — horror or comedy? 08:30 Marrying into a family that wants to kill you 16:00 Breaking down the LaBelle family 26:00 Why Alex is actually the villain 36:00 The game box theory — is it random or rigged? 46:00 Practical effects on a $6M budget 54:00 Community reviews 01:05:00 Will the sequel ruin the franchise? 01:15:00 Final verdicts and where to find KT KT Baldassaro — filmmaker, critic, festival programmer Podcast: What If I Don't Like It? — search on any podcast app Follow her: @movieruntime on TikTok Listen to The Cinema Psychos Show on: Spotify: https://rebrand.ly/0v6eeno Apple: https://rebrand.ly/j5nrkp7  Amazon: https://rebrand.ly/5x5hzng Goodpods: https://rebrand.ly/picstv6 OR LISTEN ON YOUR FAVORITE PODCAST APP! https://cinemapsychosshow.com/follow   Follow The Cinema Psychos Show on Socials ❤️🔥: Discord: https://discord.gg/7GZ9uuTJ Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cinemapsychosshow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cinemapsychospod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cinemapsychospod Threads: https://www.threads.net/@cinemapsychospod   MAIN TITLE: “Red Alert”  AUTHOR: Jack Waldenmaier PUBLISHER: Music Bakery Publishing (BMI) WARNING: UNAUTHORIZED USE OF THE MUSIC CONTAINED IN THIS PRODUCTION IS SUBJECT TO CRIMINAL PROSECUTION.
