00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.240
Welcome to my vertical obsession. I'm your host, Megan, and

2
00:00:03.279 --> 00:00:05.799
today we are talking about Love You Too Death on

3
00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:10.400
Drama Box and it stars Kristin Kendall as Brooke Ellison

4
00:00:10.560 --> 00:00:15.560
and Kayla and Ben Armstrong as Nate Slash Nathan and

5
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:19.280
The synopsis for this one is rebelling against her perfect life.

6
00:00:19.399 --> 00:00:23.239
High school senior cheerleader Brooke falls into a hot and

7
00:00:23.320 --> 00:00:27.399
heavy romance with transfer student and new QB Nate. Everything

8
00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:30.559
seems perfect until she discovers that Nate has a very

9
00:00:30.640 --> 00:00:34.880
dark side. So diving into the characters, we have Brooke,

10
00:00:35.079 --> 00:00:39.280
who is trusting, sweet, oblivious, and also very fierce. She

11
00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:42.119
was way too trusting of Nate far too many times,

12
00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:45.640
especially when her gut would tell her to question him

13
00:00:45.799 --> 00:00:48.679
and things. She wanted to believe that she was worrying

14
00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:52.159
for nothing or just overreacting. She wanted to believe Nate

15
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:55.000
was the sweet guy who cared deeply for her. She

16
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:59.079
was oblivious to the red flags he kept throwing up

17
00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:02.840
so many reds oh many, even her friend mentioned it.

18
00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:06.200
He is a walking red fleck. She tried to end

19
00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:09.159
it after he nearly beat a man to death for talking.

20
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:12.439
Slash kind of harassing her in a bar, but then

21
00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:15.519
stayed with him. And this relationship between the two of

22
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:19.799
them kind of gave me vibes of an abusive relationship

23
00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:23.159
because he had kind of manipulated her to stay with him.

24
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:27.400
While he wasn't physically abusive to her, he was still very,

25
00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:30.959
very controlling, So I think that also added to why

26
00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:35.319
she didn't see or rather didn't Questionate more. His charm

27
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:38.359
was able to fool her. She still had her doubts,

28
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:41.200
but she just wanted to believe it wasn't true. When

29
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:44.000
the truth did come out, she was ready to fight back.

30
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:46.439
She risked her life to save her friend Oggi and

31
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:49.640
refused to let him kill her too. She fought to

32
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:52.519
take him down, but he was a bit stronger. Thankfully,

33
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:55.200
she was able to save Aggie and her father was

34
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:59.799
able to save her. And with Nate, he was crazy, psycho,

35
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:04.000
so obsessive and murderous. He said he did these things

36
00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:07.040
in the name of love and wanting nothing to break

37
00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:09.360
him and Brooke out, but it was really his way

38
00:02:09.400 --> 00:02:12.520
of controlling everything. It wasn't really about Brooke, but his

39
00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:15.599
need to control things that could have been due to

40
00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:17.960
something in his past. But we really didn't get much

41
00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:21.120
about his life other than his relationship with Kayla, and

42
00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:24.319
this could have been triggered by that relationship. He did

43
00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:27.520
mention that she cheated and that she stopped loving him,

44
00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:29.840
so he killed her, and that might have brought up

45
00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:32.919
this whole If nothing can keep us apart and no

46
00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:35.960
one for Brooke to love, that he'll be the only

47
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:38.719
one she needs. So he ends up taking things too

48
00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:41.039
far because he needs to keep Brook no matter what

49
00:02:41.159 --> 00:02:44.000
the cause. He wants to be the knight in shining armor,

50
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:46.599
but in reality he's the one to save the girl

51
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:48.439
from the danger he'd put her in, kind of like

52
00:02:48.479 --> 00:02:52.039
Another example is he's putting out the fire that he

53
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:55.319
started in the first place. He believes Brooke wouldn't want

54
00:02:55.560 --> 00:02:58.680
him if he wasn't around to save her. That also

55
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:01.159
means he doesn't want her to be with anyone else,

56
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:03.680
and in the end, if she wasn't with him, he'd

57
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:06.479
kill her, just as he killed Kayla. Turns into a

58
00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:09.479
if I can't have her, no one else can, so

59
00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:13.080
he has that mentality and ends up killing her or

60
00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:15.960
wanting to kill her so that way no one else

61
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:18.159
can be with her. No one else can have her

62
00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:21.039
because he can't, so I found the story to be

63
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:25.479
a little dark and twisted. It was definitely a stalker

64
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:28.479
type series for sure, and I really kind of love

65
00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:31.199
that they've kind of started to add some of these

66
00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:36.039
different themes and stories to the vertical categories. So I

67
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:39.360
know there are definitely stalker movies out there, and for me,

68
00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:43.599
those ones are ones that I will watch versus a

69
00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:47.639
horror movie because I find the stalker genre to be

70
00:03:47.879 --> 00:03:51.520
less scary than horror movies. It's still very creepy and

71
00:03:52.039 --> 00:03:55.319
very twisted, but that's about as far as I go

72
00:03:55.360 --> 00:03:57.520
when it comes to like scary movies. I will not

73
00:03:57.599 --> 00:03:59.960
do horror, but darker ones I enjoy from time to time,

74
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:02.599
and it depends on the story, because, like I know

75
00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:05.759
what you did last summer, While it's teens getting murder

76
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:09.639
and kind of in the horror genre, I also find

77
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:12.400
that it ease a little bit in the stocker genre too.

78
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:15.960
Getting back to the series, we got Nate who fell

79
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:19.120
for Brock and wouldn't let anyone else have her, and

80
00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:21.920
those that try to keep them apart were gotten rid of.

81
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:25.439
He was possessive and obsessed. He kind of reminded me

82
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:29.560
of Mark Wahlberg's character from the movie Fear and Brooke

83
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:32.000
kind of reminded me of Reese Witherspoon's character from the

84
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:34.639
movie Fear. I kind of felt that this was very

85
00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:39.000
on brand for that movie. The similarities between them I

86
00:04:39.079 --> 00:04:42.759
found for so interesting. And I know there's a lot

87
00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:46.319
more to Fear, but I just it really gave me

88
00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:49.519
the sense that it was similar to that movie. And

89
00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:52.560
I know I had slightly brought this up in the

90
00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:55.120
last one. I did Bound to the Rebel Wolf, and

91
00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:57.399
I didn't say because I was like, I did want

92
00:04:57.399 --> 00:05:00.720
to ruin the the analogy I was making for this one,

93
00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:02.519
so I was like, but this was the one I

94
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:05.560
was using. So as I said, you know, in Fear,

95
00:05:05.639 --> 00:05:08.480
Mark's character falls for Reese's character and would do anything

96
00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:11.199
to keep them together, which is the theme of this series.

97
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:13.639
And I also may mention that there are probably other

98
00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:16.240
series out there that are very similar to this, but

99
00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:18.839
that's the one that popped in my head the most

100
00:05:19.120 --> 00:05:23.160
because that's one of the movies that I like because

101
00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:26.240
I am a fan of Alissa Milano, so she's in that,

102
00:05:26.360 --> 00:05:28.560
so I've watched it from her, watched it for her,

103
00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:32.240
and I really enjoyed the whole movie because it really

104
00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:36.360
gives this whole small town girl falls for bad boy

105
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:39.720
who turns out to be crazy and fights back to

106
00:05:40.120 --> 00:05:43.079
save her friends and her family. And I really loved that,

107
00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:45.959
even though it was a very star is genre film,

108
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:48.879
but I still very much enjoyed it. And the ending

109
00:05:49.079 --> 00:05:52.600
was the just Desserts. So this series was one that

110
00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:55.839
gave off very creepy vibes and he kind of wondered

111
00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:58.160
if Nate was going to get away with everything that

112
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:02.079
he had done. Also, no one was more suspicious sooner,

113
00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:06.040
which was very strange. I mean, yes, there were questioning,

114
00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:10.319
and Aggie and Brooks other friends live also kind of

115
00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:14.560
we're questioning a bit, but there really wasn't too many

116
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:18.800
questions until later on. And I'm just like, he's done

117
00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:22.920
some suspicious things and no one's questioning it. He's also

118
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:27.040
very acting, very suspicious. And then again I pointed out

119
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:30.319
how stalker series and movies like this, they aren't very

120
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:32.920
scary at least to me. Might be to some other

121
00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:35.800
people or they might be triggering to other people too

122
00:06:36.199 --> 00:06:39.240
that I can understand, but for me personally, they aren't

123
00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:42.399
very scary. They aren't quite horror movies, but they do

124
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:45.399
still have like jump scares and freaking moments. It all

125
00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:50.279
depends on how it goes and what level of scary

126
00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:52.680
they go. Now I know the two off the top

127
00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:55.240
of my head. Actually there's three that I know off

128
00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:57.240
the top of my head, which a swim fan, Fear

129
00:06:57.439 --> 00:07:01.600
and abandon, And for me, they weren't much scary in

130
00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:04.319
the sense of horror, but in kind of like a

131
00:07:04.399 --> 00:07:08.879
psychological freaky scary, because you're like, there are people out

132
00:07:08.920 --> 00:07:12.319
there that do exist like this. You may not see

133
00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:15.079
them daily, but there are people who exist who are

134
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:19.480
this obsessed with someone or will do something like this

135
00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:22.759
to be with someone. So it's kind of more that

136
00:07:22.959 --> 00:07:27.879
scary versus jumping out and killing kids or some sort

137
00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:31.800
of crazy, blood filled death that some horror movies do.

138
00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:35.560
So I find that that that's the scarier nature of

139
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:39.160
a stalker film, And that's what this series kind of

140
00:07:39.199 --> 00:07:42.000
brought is that whole like, well, you have this Nate

141
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:46.360
character who will do anything to keep Brooke with him,

142
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:48.920
and the links that he will go to keep her

143
00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:52.759
by his side is very out there. It makes you

144
00:07:52.879 --> 00:07:56.720
kind of fearful that this is something that could happen.

145
00:07:57.120 --> 00:07:58.920
Did mention that this was kind of low key, a

146
00:07:58.959 --> 00:08:01.560
little freaky, but it's so enjoyable to watch. There was

147
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:03.639
a lot of suspense and there was also a lot

148
00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:06.439
of like, wait what moments type of thing. So I

149
00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:10.439
also have to commend Ben Armstrong who played Nate, because

150
00:08:10.480 --> 00:08:13.480
he really did a good job at playing Nate in

151
00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:17.680
this crazy psycho character. Like I said, he did a

152
00:08:17.759 --> 00:08:20.160
very good job. I was a little freaked out by

153
00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:23.600
the character very much so, and I was just like, Okay, wait,

154
00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:25.959
what are you gonna do? Because I mean some of

155
00:08:25.959 --> 00:08:28.120
the other ones that I've seen with him, he's been

156
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:32.159
the charming bad boy with the heart of goal and

157
00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:36.559
a softer side boyfriend, versus this role, which is he's

158
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:40.360
just bat shit crazy and he's just out there trying

159
00:08:40.399 --> 00:08:43.080
to kill people. So it was very fun to see this,

160
00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:46.399
and I love when you can see actors who play

161
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:50.519
these good roles turn and play a crazy, murderous or

162
00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:55.120
villain like this and do it very well. Sometimes actors

163
00:08:55.159 --> 00:08:59.000
get stuck in similar characters and they don't really get

164
00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:02.480
to explore or other types of characters. So like if

165
00:09:02.519 --> 00:09:05.120
you have like the good boy next door or the

166
00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:08.559
best friend, you don't always get to see them in

167
00:09:08.639 --> 00:09:12.960
another role of like the villain or the crazy psycho,

168
00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.279
which ends up being like type casting, i'd say for

169
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:20.639
some actors, and it's very sad when that happens. Others,

170
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:23.919
I don't think mind it because if it's similar roles

171
00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:26.080
and it keeps getting them work, then it works out.

172
00:09:26.120 --> 00:09:28.559
But I just know that sometimes it's nice to see

173
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:33.639
like arrange from actors. And Ben did fantastic playing this

174
00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:37.960
because he definitely freaked me out. The character is just

175
00:09:38.679 --> 00:09:41.639
so creepy and he just like really had a good

176
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:44.840
look of like I'm going to destroy people when he

177
00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:48.000
wasn't putting on this whole like I'm a charming good guy.

178
00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:50.879
So I got to comment, Ben, who're doing such a

179
00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:53.399
great job as Nate for sure. So some of the

180
00:09:53.399 --> 00:09:55.360
things that I had questioned was like how did Nate

181
00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:57.720
get on the football team? Like that was one question

182
00:09:57.759 --> 00:10:01.600
that I didn't quite understand. So he gets rid of

183
00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:05.080
Jimmy the quarterback, and then suddenly shows up and now

184
00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:07.679
he's the quarterback, even though I'm pretty sure the team

185
00:10:08.240 --> 00:10:12.679
was already like playing games and like Triace entready happened.

186
00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:14.559
So I was just like, how did he get on

187
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:16.840
the team? I guess you can assume that maybe he

188
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:18.799
talked to the coach and the coach was like, Uh,

189
00:10:19.120 --> 00:10:21.559
sure you can join. But I didn't think that was

190
00:10:21.639 --> 00:10:25.000
how it worked when it came to school sports like that,

191
00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:27.759
but I could be wrong. But also to the fact

192
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:30.559
that Jimmy went missing and no one questioned it. It's

193
00:10:30.600 --> 00:10:33.600
like the coach didn't question it. He didn't none of

194
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:36.919
the teachers questioned it. It's like it was mentioned once

195
00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:39.200
by the team being like, oh, he never showed up,

196
00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:42.240
especially after Nate joined the team, but was never a

197
00:10:42.279 --> 00:10:45.840
bigger deal that your classmate just disappeared. Because that's the

198
00:10:45.840 --> 00:10:47.759
other thing is like Nate joined the team got rid

199
00:10:47.799 --> 00:10:50.559
of Jimmy, no one noticed Jimmy was gone. I mean

200
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:53.039
they did, but it wasn't made a bigger deal in

201
00:10:53.080 --> 00:10:55.480
the series. And then when he was found dead, like

202
00:10:55.840 --> 00:10:59.279
that really wasn't mentioned either, Like it was mentioned by

203
00:10:59.279 --> 00:11:01.320
the Cup when he said that, oh, I talked to

204
00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:04.440
the boys on the football team, but otherwise it wasn't

205
00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:07.039
mentioned around school. No one freaked out about it. Do

206
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:09.360
you think if their classmate was found dead, they'd be

207
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:12.519
kind of freaked out. So that was one thing that

208
00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:14.879
I was just like, I feel like that should have

209
00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:17.279
been made a little bit big of a deal. And

210
00:11:17.320 --> 00:11:20.519
then move on to Reagan found with drugs, but no

211
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:23.679
one questions if it was planted or what happened, especially

212
00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:27.360
since Reagan the day before had shared a video of

213
00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:30.279
Nate and Brooke together and then suddenly she has drugs

214
00:11:30.279 --> 00:11:32.879
in her blocker. It's like and the look that Nate

215
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:36.759
gave Brook after it happened, it's like basically proving that

216
00:11:36.879 --> 00:11:39.200
he did it. Of course she asks him and he's like, well,

217
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:41.080
if you don't want to know the answer, then don't ask.

218
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:44.080
But other than that, it's just like no one's worried

219
00:11:44.200 --> 00:11:46.320
what's going on. So I was just like going, like,

220
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:49.480
how how did Nate do this? Because he did these

221
00:11:49.480 --> 00:11:51.600
things out in the open, it's like no one really

222
00:11:51.799 --> 00:11:54.919
questioned this. It's like Brooke friend did. But it wasn't

223
00:11:55.000 --> 00:11:57.799
until they broke and Nate went away to the cabin

224
00:11:57.960 --> 00:12:00.720
that they're started to worry a little bit. And I'm

225
00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:03.480
just like, how did he get away with this? Because

226
00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:07.759
he wasn't very anonymous and he didn't really do it

227
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:11.080
in the shadows. And maybe it's because since watching the

228
00:12:11.120 --> 00:12:13.320
series and you're knowing it's happening. It's a little bit

229
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:16.080
easier to see that it happened. But at the same time,

230
00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:18.960
I'm just like, I feel like it should have been

231
00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:21.200
more of a question, maybe not the fact that Nate

232
00:12:21.320 --> 00:12:23.480
did it, but at least more of a question. I

233
00:12:23.480 --> 00:12:25.759
feel like people kind of brush some of these things

234
00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:28.679
off and we're just a little bit too blind to it,

235
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:32.759
and it's just like okay. But then again, I guess

236
00:12:32.840 --> 00:12:35.840
if they do question it, or they start to question Nate,

237
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:39.639
it would kind of ruin the whole idea of the series.

238
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:43.200
But I still think that Jimmy's vanishing and death should

239
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:46.159
have been a little bit more talked about or freaked

240
00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:48.320
people out a little bit more. And then we have

241
00:12:48.519 --> 00:12:52.840
that final message, and that final message is now like

242
00:12:53.080 --> 00:12:56.480
did he survive? Is he still alive or was that

243
00:12:56.559 --> 00:12:59.240
like a time text message was that supposed to send

244
00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:02.519
out at a certain time or did he survive that gunshot?

245
00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:05.519
Because then that made me think and then I was like, ooh,

246
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:07.519
this kind of opens it up for a sequel, And

247
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:09.799
my brain was like, oh, well, maybe it could go

248
00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:12.480
one of two ways. One way is if they were

249
00:13:12.519 --> 00:13:14.840
to do a sequel. He moves on to a new school,

250
00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:17.279
takes on a new identity, finds a new girl, and

251
00:13:17.320 --> 00:13:20.039
it all starts over again until maybe he's caught. And

252
00:13:20.080 --> 00:13:22.879
then the other was that he comes back and ends

253
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:26.480
up going after and they won't have another final showdown.

254
00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:28.879
So it's kind of like, oh, here's two ideas for

255
00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:30.840
like sequels. I was like, Oh, I could see it

256
00:13:30.879 --> 00:13:33.039
going either way, And I think if it was to

257
00:13:33.080 --> 00:13:35.480
go into a sequel that it would be fun, because

258
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:38.639
they definitely did open it up to a possibility that, oh,

259
00:13:38.759 --> 00:13:41.799
this could extend, there could be more, it could be

260
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:44.799
a sequel, And it's just like my brain is like

261
00:13:44.919 --> 00:13:46.960
going with like, oh, maybe this would be a good idea.

262
00:13:47.039 --> 00:13:48.919
Maybe this would be a good idea. So and I

263
00:13:48.960 --> 00:13:51.480
know that's kind of like how some horror movies do

264
00:13:51.600 --> 00:13:54.000
it is where they like have the killer or the

265
00:13:54.080 --> 00:13:56.480
villain dead in the end, or at least you think

266
00:13:56.480 --> 00:13:58.879
he's dead, but it turns out that they survived and

267
00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:01.840
now they're coming back for revenge or they're moving on

268
00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:05.279
to do places and killing more people. So I think

269
00:14:05.320 --> 00:14:08.879
it'd be fun to kind of explore that with this series,

270
00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:11.720
if possible. I think that'd be just a little little fun.

271
00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:14.279
I also didn't write it down, but as I'm talking

272
00:14:14.639 --> 00:14:17.000
and I should have mentioned it. One of the things

273
00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:20.000
that I didn't realize at first, but I kept going like,

274
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:23.240
is that the same actress was the fact that the

275
00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:26.039
actress who played Brook was the same actress who played

276
00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:28.960
Kayla just in a Wig. But it didn't dawn on

277
00:14:29.039 --> 00:14:31.840
me until like closer to the end of the series,

278
00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:33.480
and I was just like, I'm a little bit of

279
00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:36.840
a fool. I can notice little mistakes, but that I

280
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:39.360
was a little slow on the updake of that one.

281
00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:40.960
But I did kind of question it at the beginning.

282
00:14:41.000 --> 00:14:43.039
I was like, is it the same actress or does

283
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:45.639
it just look like her? It's like kind of questioning it.

284
00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:47.840
But I do love that they did that to make

285
00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:51.320
her more resemble Kayla, So that way it made more

286
00:14:51.399 --> 00:14:54.639
sense as to why Nate was drawn to Brook and

287
00:14:54.679 --> 00:14:57.440
why he clung to her, and also to why he

288
00:14:57.519 --> 00:15:00.159
called her Kayla from time to time, is because it

289
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:03.600
was the same actors playing that character, just they changed

290
00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:06.279
the hair to make her look different, to make the

291
00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:10.279
two characters look different but still similar. I love that,

292
00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:12.720
and I love that it did take a little bit

293
00:15:12.759 --> 00:15:14.879
for me to figure it out because makes it more

294
00:15:14.919 --> 00:15:18.120
interesting when you don't know if they're the same actor

295
00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:21.039
type of thing, and that you sit there going like, wow,

296
00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:23.279
they did get someone, so oh wait, no, it is

297
00:15:23.559 --> 00:15:26.159
the same actor, so type of thing. Not sure if

298
00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:28.600
that made all the sense that I thought it did,

299
00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:31.200
but I feel like you can get the gist of

300
00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:34.240
where I'm going with that. But anyways, so the rating

301
00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:35.840
I gave for this one was an a point too

302
00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:38.679
that I really enjoyed it. I loved how it was

303
00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:41.639
a little bit different than the normal and I love

304
00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:45.240
the like the creepy stalker vibe of it. So much

305
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:47.639
fun to watch. And I love that they've kind of

306
00:15:47.759 --> 00:15:50.559
started doing that a little bit because it's a step

307
00:15:50.600 --> 00:15:55.799
towards a more mainstream type category and genre when it

308
00:15:55.840 --> 00:15:59.399
comes to a series, I feel. But I would love

309
00:15:59.399 --> 00:16:01.600
to hear your thoughts on the series. Do you think

310
00:16:01.639 --> 00:16:04.320
that Brooks should have figured out things sooner? Do you

311
00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:06.720
think that Nate is still alive? And if there was

312
00:16:06.759 --> 00:16:09.159
a sequel, how do you think it may go. So

313
00:16:09.279 --> 00:16:12.480
this has been talking about Love You to Death on

314
