Rem = REM sleep, specifically referencing the act of Dreaming. Le = The Zar = Tsar, or Czar meaning Leader, or even King. Rem Lezar is the King of Dreams.

Years ago Mike and Jay realized they had the same imaginary friend. After a magical night of sculpting him out of Star Wars figurines and leftover sandwich meats, Rich Evans came to life and now brings joy to us all!

Rem Lezar feels like the strangest adaptation of a H.P Lovecraft story ever. Two children have the same dream and immediately decide "WE MUST BUILD HIM".

Is nobody going to bring up that Rem Lezar is also the cop at the end.... which adds a whole new layer of symbolism and confusion to the plot...

Rem Lezar sounds like the name of a director whose movies constantly show up on Best of the Worst.

Rem Lezar will return in Avengers: Endgame

It would have been funnier if Rem Lazar ended with a cop showing up and Rem is sitting there with two mannequin children

It's taken me 4 re-watches to notice the joke at 45:16 where they compliment the shirt Mike is wearing, which is the exact same shirt they mocked Jay for wearing in the previous episode.

If Rich Evans were born in pre-industrial times, then instead of an internet superstar he would be a shaman.

I hope one day we get to see "How to Sell Thousands of Dollars Worth of Plants from Home, Even if Your House is Surrounded by Huge Discount Stores and Home Improvement Stores"

Just realized Courtney Kernaghan who played the girl passed away in 2017 at 40 years...and on a obituary site Rem Lezar posted: "The highest point of imagination is love." 😢

Imagine Freddy Kruegar trapped in a Rem Lezar dream.

Rem Lazar was already a BOTW all-timer, and then THAT happened.

On one hand I'm happy Rem Lezar was such a great time. On the other hand i've got 1000 plants just sitting here in my house next to the Walmart so I'm a little sad you skipped it.

I hate when I go to the park to hook up with dudes and they keep telling me "Hey I just came here to worship Satan".

"The power of imagination brought down the tow- I mean, I guess that's kinda true." Jay's line at 41:38 is terribly underappreciated.

The how-to video on plants sounds like something out of a cartoon. You know, like when a character needs to know how to do something for a very specific situation, and immediately stumbles across a how-to book on that exact subject, complete with a title that describes the exact situation they're in.

I'm increasingly convinced that Mike was never a child - a cloud made from the disappointment and cynicism of a million wasted lives combined with Rich's imaginary friend, thus his tormentor came into being.

Rich calling the World Trade Centre plotline in Rem Lazar is forever my favourite redlettermedia moment

The actor who played Rem Lezar also played the policeman at the end. It's the only double-casting in the film. Much like the rest of the film, I have no idea what to make of that.

On IMBD under the trivia for this it says “Rem Lazar is responsible for 9/11” 😂😂😂

“Part of the joy that I get from this boy” sounds like an unfortunate lyric from The Nightman Cometh episode of Its Always Sunny

Gotta say, Rem Lazar has a pretty solid singing voice

Is there a word for “wholesome that doesn’t know it’s creepy”?

9/11 was a remjob

Josh is the one who chose rem lazar instead of some random ass selling plants video He's the hero we didn't know we needed

Mike's reaction at 40:53 is so guttural and genuine. It never fails to make me laugh

"You're being a cynic, Jay: this is magical." EPIC.

god I love it when Mike says "You're being a cynic Jay, this is magical."

"How come we can't get away from 9/11" - Rich Evans, 2016

Between not voting for Rem Lazar and voting for Shark Exorcist Mike should loose his voting privileges.

I can't say how many times I've come back to this specific episode. It's such a comfort watch

"Rem Lazar is coming" killed me. The only downside was that Rich made the joke so I didn't get to hear him laugh hysterically about it

Rem Lazar could have been an amazing horror film about two psychic kids who create a tulpa from their shared visions and give form to a malevolent entity who craves more and more power. At the end it is destroyed on 9/11.

A year later and I still want to find out how to sell thousands of dollars of plants from home even if im surrounded by home improvement and discount stores

Little Boy: "That's not it, that's the Empire State Building. But the building my Dad showed me is much taller, and there's two of them." Mike: _"OH GOD!"_

Mike seems pretty sharp with his dosage knowledge for tranquilising women.

18:50 Video: “Satan represents vengeance...” Mike: “Absolutely.” *Jay and Rich emit identical cackles*

Watching this video again on September 11, in memoriam

Reposting someone else's comment since I don't see it here anymore: R.E.M. Rapid Eye Movement (Deep Sleep). La - spanish for 'the' and t'zar - King. Rem Lazar is the King of dreams.

that is an illegal amount of acetone

"You're being a cynic Jay, this is magical." LOL

Rich's ability to predict the contents of bad movies is uncanny

I'm convinced this is one of the best RLM videos, if not the best.

I've never observed more genuine terror then when Mike realized his joke about the Twin Towers was the actual plot.

Rem Lezar gives off the same vibes as The Night Man Cometh from It's Always Sunny.

Rich and Jay shouting "OH MY GOOOOOOOOD!" was the best thing I've ever seen and nothing will change my mind.

"How to Sell Thousands of Dollars Worth of Plants from Home, Even If Your House is Surrounded by Huge Discount Stores and Home Improvement Stores" sounds like a Don Caballero song title

40:55 Mike's Reaction when Rich's prophecy came real! Seriously someone needs to go back through ALL of their videos to find all the weird things associated with Rich! Remember Dick the Birthday boy? When that damn bear magically appeared in the film-hahah wasn't it dead too?

To be fair, Rem Lazar had a quite pleasing baritone singing voice. The doo-wop group was pretty good too. The kids were pretty horrible though.

34:41 might be the sweetest moment in Mike's and Rich's friendship

the absolutely visceral reaction mike has to the twin tower reveal is that of pure terror

Drunk Josh vs. contrarian Mike has to be de best thing ever in wheel of the worst lmfao

Rem Lezar would make a good horror movie. It's about a being that goes into children's dreams and tells gets them to build a vessel for it to inhabit in the corporeal world.

What’s even crazier about Rem Lezar is that the guy who played that floating head guy ended up being one of the creators of the first ever web series

Mike's shocked "Oh God!" as he realizes where Rem Lezar's medallion is hidden... what a perfect moment xD .

Friendly reminder that Rich build a whole table with only his hands and a pacman tshirt with no pants

Rem Lazar looks like he walked straight out of an ill conceived Stardust Crusaders Netflix adaptation.

31:18 For everyone coming back for Rem Lazar

Y'know, I wonder how many unique viewers this video has, I've seen this episode at least 5 - 10 times by now

Don't you guys know? Only Rem Lazar can defeat the demon Eloisecole.

Mike is wearing the shirt he made fun of jay for wearing Edit: they mentioned it and now I feel less observant

Not to downplay the majesty that is Rem Lezar, but I can't be the only one who REALLY wants to know what's the deal with "How to Sell Thousands of Dollars Worth of Plants from Home, Even if Your House is Surrounded by Huge Discount Stores and Home Improvement Stores". That just feels like classic BotW material

The “Catholic priest” doesn’t know that an upside down cross is the cross of Saint Peter, not a “satanic” cross.

The beginning of Rem Lezar sounds like a good idea for a horror movie. A couple kids decide to build their imaginary friend then it comes to life and murders people or something

I think the new goal of Wheel of the Worst should be to take all the footage and re-cut it to make a narrative story.

The Twin Towers are pictured on the front of the Rem Lezar VHS box, Rich must have subconsciously seen them.

47:18 is unironically a good tune.

Rem Lezar vs Bibleman. The Real Marvel Civil War

i'm shocked that mike said sysco was a rapper and not a starfleet captain

"Chickens gone wild" that should stay on the wheel till you land on it

'We're going to call you Mr Scissors from now on. Okay spin that wheel Josh.' Mike's dementia made him immediately forget the nickname he just came up with.

from Naked Ghost Video Facebook: Huge thanks to Red Letter Media for featuring "Law Enforcement Guide to Satanic Cults" on their latest Wheel of the Worst video! Good stuff, and no, that is not a real coffee stain.

Mike heard the word "Sysco" and didn't make a Star Trek reference. The end times are truly near.

This might be the most rewatched "best of the worst" for me

Rem Lazar's singing voice is both soothing and wholesome

I go to a local horror movie convention and they have a screening room where they play old horror movies and random crazy shit. One of the screenings I sat in on was Rem Lezar. The guy screening it was super enthusiastic about sharing it's crazy with other people. Good times.

But actually though, disaster at the crossing deserved a vote for actually having the rare good intention and the budget to kill an actual bus with a train.

Every lead actor in Creating Rem Lezar looks like they're suffering from severe depression, even when they're singing. It's really upsetting.

“Mother-Baby Film Festival” Sounds like the doing of a certain Bluth Foundation

Anagrams for "Creating Rem Lezar": "Canalize Mr. Regret", "Recreating Mr. Zeal", "Malice Grazer Rent", "Miracle Grater Zen", "Crazier Angel Term", "Carrel Germane Zit"

Rem Lezar deserves a spot in the Wheel of the Worst Hall of Fame next to Surviving Edged Weapons.

Rem Lezar compelling the kids to construct him is like the Marker from Dead Space.

The rewatchability on these things is endless

Special guest star: Unnerving Pile of Acetone Canisters. 10/10

I don't know if anyone pointed this out already, but Scott Zakarin, who wrote, directed and produced Rem Lezar "created the web series platform when he introduced the first internet episodic website The Spot" - as per his Wiki page... So he's actually the father of all this, with web series like RLM creates and maybe in a parallel universe, Creating Rem Lezar led to a different RLM: Rem Lezar Media! There's the true conspiracy!

Mike's slowly coming unhinged. The first sign was when he cracked during Christy and started laughing maniacally. Now he legitimately believes false things are true: that Rem Lezar was not the best of the worst.

I love Jay's insinuation: "Rich, did you write this?"

9-11 was a Rem Job

How did they not notice that the cop is Rem Lezar??

" But The Best Of The Worst to me is School Bus Railroad Crossing." YOU'RE THE DEVIL'S SON!

39:13 is hands down my favorite RLM quote of all time

I don't practice Santeria. I just worship Rem Lezar

“True evil never dies.” No ones ever really gone.

"JOSH, THEY WERE KILLED IN A BUS ACCIDENT!!" I can't.

After re-watching this episode once again, I have to say: despite the abject weirdness of Rem Lazar, I can't help but feel that it's actually one of very few tapes that has been viewed on this show that feels *genuine*. I can't shake the feeling that those who made it had the best intentions at heart, and if you squint a little and ignore some of the stranger lyrical moments and weird plot elements, you can actually see something that feels kind of sweet and innocent. Also Rem Lazar's singing voice is honestly great, his baritone has a soothing and comforting quality. Perhaps I'm trying too hard NOT to be cynical, but the more I watch this episode, the more become convinced of my feelings.

We must give Satan a body. Get me a mannequin.

"He's walking like his neck's broken!" It's the singing. They got this kid to sing out of his range, and he has bad technique so he's stretching the larynx by tilting his chin up.

The boys singing a parody of bohemian rhapsody is one of the most beautiful things ever.

the train story is actually incredibly fascinating for a number of reasons. for one thing people rallied around the busdriver, as the crossing was notorious for the angularity of the country road which met it, the one that the bus was driving on. not to mention the temperature on the day of the accident fogging up the bus windows- it was colorado after all. he was acquitted. around twenty children died. craziest of all, the father of one fatally injured child and another who nearly met the same end, two of his eldest, still teenagers, died months later in a collision with a pickup truck running a red light. one of his sons was supposed to be on the bus the day of the crash, and on the day two of his brothers died he happened to have to take the bus rather than drive, not merely that, it was his first bus ride. a year after the accident the father donated to have the train crossing plowed and relocated onto a nearby road that intersected at a near right angle.
