(The scene begins as we hear the opening of “Last Dance” by Donna Summer play in the foreground as we see Kyra Lee and Crosslyn Castillo getting ready to sing, going “Oooh!” Crosslyn sings the first lyric, then Kyra Lee. Then the two sing in harmony, “I need you… by me, beside me, to guide me, to hold me, to scold me.” Then Doug Yaun as Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock comes in singing “Because when I’m bad, I’m so, so, bad!” Then we see Eddie Brock transform into “Venom,” voiced by Eric Kurtzke, as “Venom” sings. So let’s dance! The Last Dance!” Crosslyn then sings “Let’s Dance, the last dance!” Kyra Lee then sings “Let’s Dance, this last dance.” Then the three sing “Tonight!” “Venom” then sings the rest of the song, joined by Kyra Lee and Crosslyn Castillo, until the final shout of “Tonight” as Kyra Lee holds the note at the end of the word “Tonight” and glass begins to break. Cut to the lights as the bulbs break, Cut to Venom as he cries in pain before exploding. Cut to Kyra as she still holds the note, and the lenses don’t just break, they shatter into a billion pieces, leaving the audio the only thing available.)

Don’t Cut! KYRA, WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!
Kyra Lee Of The Lacustrian Pod (Audio only):
Well, what did you expect from me, James Faraci, The Last Of The Americans? Asking a mermaid to sing is not bad in human theory but when a moment has one of us holding a note for a while, it has been known by my kind to shatter anything. The bottom of the oceans is littered with boats, bodies, and all sorts of stuff from Mermaids singing. Fun Fact about that “Titanic” event that happened over a century ago. My mom sang the notes that allowed the iceberg to remain strong against that ship.
TLOTA (Audio only):
Oh goodie!
Crosslyn Castillo (Audio only):
JESUS, MARY, JOSEPH, AND HIS TECHNOCOLOR DREAMCOAT! SHE DISINTEGRATED VENOM AND EDDIE BROCK!
Steve Kidd (Audio only):
Hey James, I have one question. WHO THE HELL HELD THAT NOTE LONG ENOUGH TO SHATTER THE GLASS ON MY RIDE’S CAR?!
TLOTA (Audio only):
Steve Kidd, meet the two new team members. Crosslyn, I’m sure Rowdy told you what happened.
Steve Kidd (Audio only):
Oh yeah, you were possessed by a mermaid’s spirit, and then you and two others in the same situation nearly killed my friend!
TLOTA (Audio only):
And this is…
Kyra Lee of The Lacustrian Pod (Audio only):
I am Kyra Lee of The Lacustrian pod. I am a recompense for what happened to James and his former other half.
Steve Kidd (Audio only):
I’m sorry, but what?
About Author
You’re kinder on this movie than Movie Curiosities was. Curiosity Inc. felt the villains were pretty much the weakest part of the movie, and found it hard to really get interested in the villains.
Anyway, I’ve never got around to seeing any of the “Venom” movies because I had a hard time grasping how the character works without Spider-Man. In the comics, his origin and initial motivations are tied to Spider-Man: if Spider-Man didn’t exist, then Venom wouldn’t have existed, at least not in the form we know. But it seems that the Venom movies had enough of an audience for there to be three movies in the first place, making them the closest thing to a success the ‘Spider-Manless Spider-Man movies’ ever had.
I might end up seeing these movies sooner or later out of curiosity. As for the Multiverse in the MCU, I’m not one of those who’s against it, but I do think it could have been handled a lot better.
