- What does Kanye think of your Kanye?
- I don't think he likes it, but.
(both laughing)
- Have you ever, have you interacted?
Have you talked about it?
- No, no. (Josh laughing)
(upbeat jazzy music)
- Hey guys, welcome to "Stir crazy."
The only talk show that comes with free candy corn.
You know my guest today from "SNL"
and two new Halloweenerific films,
"Scare Me" and "Vampires Versus the Bronx."
It's Chris Redd. - Boom!
Hey, what's up man?
I had a whole, that was a whole little,
you know, Halloween boo fit,
for the real ones out there.
You know what I'm saying? (Josh laughing)
- Are you a Halloween guy, Chris?
Is this your holiday?
- Yeah, man, I do, I love Halloween.
I think last year was maybe my laziest Halloween
where I didn't prepare for it.
So I just wore some vampire fangs and a Cassius Clay jacket
and I was a vampire Muhammad Ali.
Just the laziest. (Josh laughing)
- That's the way to do it.
You just combine, you just take two different things
and be like, "No, don't you get it, see?"
- Yeah, "I bite and I box," I would say that all night.
(Josh laughing)
It was just the dumbest, dumbest thing I've ever done.
- Congratulations on your two new films,
you got "Scare Me" and "Vampires Versus the Bronx."
Two very appropriate films for the season.
Can we officially anoint you,
are you the new master of horror?
Are you the guy?
- I mean, I'm working my way to it, man.
Horror comedy.
I'm trying to just get my foothold in horror comedy.
You know what I mean?
A little bit of whoo, haha!
I like that. (Josh laughing)
I like that mix a lot, man. I really do.
- It's funny, as we get older,
I question whether iconic horror villains
were actually scary or are they lame?
Let me run through a couple of famous horror villains.
You tell me if they're lame or actually legit scary.
(upbeat jazzy music)
The number one guy, Dracula. Is Dracula legit scary?
Or is he a little bit lame?
- Dracula can be scary.
It also can be lame.
So you take a really well done, scary Dracula,
who's manipulative, and working in the world,
and can figure out his way through sunlight.
Then you also got Sesame Street's.
(laughing)
Dracula, who's like, that is a friendly man,
who likes to count! (both laughing)
- Yeah.
What about Frankenstein?
Frankenstein, I don't know,
Frankenstein seems like too much of an idiot to scare me.
He seems, he's like a moron.
- Yeah, I wouldn't be scared of Frankenstein
if I was a good amount of distance away.
You know what I'm saying?
Because he's not fast. - No.
- He's not a fast man and he's still trying to,
"I could live!"
He's too big, he can't catch me.
- But I feel like a lot of them have that similar problem.
Like Jason, again, Jason seems scary if he gets to you,
but how fast is Jason?
- Jason's not really that quick, Jason.
And also he lets you know he's coming.
Like, "she she she she, ka ka ka ka."
- What about Freddy Krueger? Freddy, is Freddy scary?
- Freddy Krueger, yes.
Freddy Krueger's scary.
He's scary 'cause he can attack you in your sleep!
You got to go to sleep.
That was terrifying as a kid,
I could be awake like, "Uh oh, Freddy gonna get you!"
- The Leprechaun, is the Leprechaun scary?
- The Leprechauns scared the shit out of me
when I was a kid because my family is from Mississippi.
So we would go down there all the time.
And my cousin let us watch "The Leprechaun"
when I was like eight years old.
And every time that Leprechaun would jump out,
he would jump out.
And he helped terrify me of that movie,
which made me watch all those movies
until I wasn't scared anymore.
So Leprechaun is not scary. - No.
- 'Cause I'll kick that mothafucka, but.
(both laughing)
But I have to acknowledge that it did scare me as a child.
- I've got some random "Would you rather"
questions for you, Chris?
You ready? (upbeat jazzy music)
Would you rather never perform standup again
or never watch pornography again?
- Never watch pornography again.
- [Josh] You're giving it up.
- Because I would give it up.
'Cause I love stand up to too damn much.
And if you're successful enough, you can live in a porn.
(both laughing)
- You can live the life instead of watching it.
Yeah, there you go!
Would you rather have the ability to turn water into wine
or read Lorne Michaels' diary?
- I would rather turn water into wine.
'Cause then I could get people drunk, like Lorne,
and just ask for the diary. (laughs)
Like hacks, baby! Drop it! (Josh laughing)
- These are too easy for you.
Would you rather lose control of your bladder
or your bowels during a live sketch on "SNL?"
- Well, what makes me wanna say bowels
is because you might catch it all.
'Cause bladder, everybody gonna see bladder happening.
That's just happening.
- There's nothing to catch.
- Bowels! Yeah.
You could have like a one line, or two liner,
you know what I mean?
People are gonna smell it, and it's gonna be nasty,
and it's not gonna feel great.
But if you may be able to get away with
no one seeing it.
It just depends on what kind of booboo
you're talking about that day. (Josh laughing)
(Chris laughing)
- I should've made the question more specific.
That's my fault.
(both laughing)
I'll get back to you on the size of the booboo.
Would you rather lose all of your teeth
or be completely hairless?
- Ha, I would rather be completely hairless
because I am damn near bald now, and-
- (laughs) And it's all right!
- It's a good life. - It's all right.
- Would you rather spend a day in the body
of Eddie Murphy or Kanye West?
- I think Kanye West. 'Cause I could do a lot in day.
(Josh laughing)
- Go on?
- Like enough tweets, you know what I mean?
I could, I could redirect history.
I could make a few more tweets
and make some big life decisions.
But when he wakes back as him,
he'd be like, "Yeah, man."
- Was your take on Kanye easy to come up with?
Were you surprised that Kanye took off as much as it did?
- I am a huge fan of Kanye.
I listened to everything that Kanye has done.
Do I agree with all the things outside of the music?
Of course not. (laughs)
- I don't know what you're talking about.
He's totally got all the right ideas.
- Oh, he has had a lot of ideas, for sure.
(Josh laughing)
I always had a version of him.
It was really cool to see people embrace the impression.
- What does Kanye think of your Kanye?
- I don't think he likes it, but.
(Josh laughing)
(both laughing)
- Have you interacted, have you talked about it?
- No, no. (Josh laughing)
But you know, I feel like I know when people like stuff
and don't like stuff.
(both laughing)
And so, you know, when he was trying to do,
he has said that he wanted Danny McBride
to play him in a movie.
And I was like, I guess he's not fond of my impression.
(both laughing)
- I always challenged folks on "Stir Crazy"
with a game of Quaranteam.
I'm gonna name a famous "SNL" character.
You tell me if you'd want them in the bunker there with you.
Would you wanna live with them right now?
(upbeat jazzy music)
Let's go with Eddie Murphy first.
Eddie Murphy's Gumby.
Would Gumby be a good person to have
in your apartment with you right now?
- Probably not, 'cause he would probably talk shit
about my whole life.
And wouldn't be pleased with anything.
And as fun as that would be for the first hour,
I think over time, it'd be like,
"Gumby, man, would you just chill?"
- "Chill the fuck out, Gumby, come on."
- "Chill out, fam!"
And my couch is Gumby green too.
So I think that at some point I would sit on him on accident
and that would cause a whole thing.
- What would Debbie Downer be too much of a downer
right now to have in quarantine?
- A hundred percent. You gotta maintain your energy, man.
You gotta maintain your energy.
And Debbie just always knows how to kill the mood.
- How, how about Stefan?
You certainly don't want to go out clubbing right now.
Would that be tough to have Stefan in there with you?
- I think it'd be tough.
I think Stefan would be a cool person to have in the house,
but I don't think he would stay
in the house enough for me to trust him.
You know what I mean?
He just seems like he's always trying to be in the know
and be where people are,
and that's the exact opposite of life I'm living.
(both laughing)
I couldn't knowing Stefan.
- What about Wayne and Garth?
They're great, but do they have the same musical tastes
as you, would that work?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. That would work.
'Cause they could teach me a lot about rock.
I could teach them a lot about hip hop.
We could probably collab
and make some real fun stuff together.
They look like they smoke hella weed.
So it would be good.
I think it'd be a good, that'd be a good combination.
- The Dick in the Box Guys?
Would that be? - Lonely Island!
Oh, as the Dick in the Box Guys?
- Yeah. - You know,
I don't have enough boxes in here.
So I feel like at one point they dicks'
just gonna be out and that's just awkward for everybody.
- Yeah, or every time you open an Amazon box,
what's in, ah, what's in there?
- Yeah, man, I don't need to play peek-a-boo
with your dick, man, put that away, bro.
(Josh laughing)
- There's enough. - Put that away!
- There's enough excitement going on right now
without that, we're good.
All right, Chris, since you're the new master of horror,
I have a challenge for you, all right.
We're gonna see if we can make any phrase,
any phrase, sound scary.
- Sounds good. (upbeat jazzy music)
I'm so tired.
I've been watching "Emily in Paris" all weekend.
- My childhood nickname was Joshy Washy!
- I know the Chipotle guy,
he hooks me up with all the guac I want.
- I'm sure you get this a lot,
your eyes really make that shirt pop!
- I love the feel of corduroy
and I'm not afraid to say it! (laughs)
- You win, Chris!
That was, can you make anything sound scary?
The answer is yes.
Well done.
- Yeah, man, nothing but terrified life I live.
You know what I'm saying? (laughs)
(upbeat jazzy music)
