It’s really interesting that the destruction of the cairn is so important to the plot, considering the historic precedent of not destroying or passing through known fairy-related sites in Ireland. Great video!
@@rebeccamurphy3516 There are Fairies with Vampiric features in Celtic mythology. One example is the *Baobhan Sith* from Scotland. Its a type of Fairy that seduces men in order to drain their blood. The *Abhartach* might be something similar, but much nastier.
he isn't a type of fairy but a sort of neamh-mairbh, which is an Irish idea of undead. I agree the themes in the movie of forgetting folklore at your own peril is super cool and interesting
@@allmyexesarefat2212 I like it when horror movies keep the origin of the monster vague. It keeps the audience intrigued and makes them speculate. Like how we are guessing what *The Abhartach* really is.
@16:30 I think the appearance of the Abhartach is based on the Irish 'bog body' phenomenon, basically bodies mummified in raised peat bogs. This could mean the vampire was originally a sacrifice, as many bog bodies discovered show signs of ritualized killing.
Came here to comment the same thing - I remember looking at the preserved bog man at the British Museum and this vampire does bear physical resemblances. Wonder if the look developed over time being buried & without blood?
At that point, I’d just fill that whole basement with concrete and build a community center or something on top of it and have it declared a landmark just to be safe.
@@torte519 if I can get away with it without unearthing him from those rocks I will, but I ain’t taking chances. But yeah, if I can, his left arm and leg are gonna be in Spain and his right are gonna be in Oakland.
@@torte519good way to die lmao “let’s just pull these rocks of this ancient entity to see if we can dismember it.. oh wait it’s killing me? Hunh never could’ve guessed this would happen”
I think you should be able to build a container to hold the Abhartach and the dirt and stones above it as well. Basically build a wood frame, and poor cement into it. Then once you have it completely wraped in concrete, with the dirt and stones in the same place as they were. I can't imagine it is going to rise up. I mean, they didn't try to encase it in concrete back then, so using the dirt, stones, and concret should be enough to completely hold it. It's strength is not enough it seems even without the dirt and stones on it, even just when it was fighting them, it didn't seem strong enough to break through a foot or two of rebar reenforced concrete anyway. But just in case, do both. Then take that entire concrete block, and do as you said, get the community to pay for a building to bury it under. And declare it a landmark as you said. But just take it slow, double and triple, and septuple check every measure, every step, just take it slow and careful with a dump trunk full of dirt and stones ready to dump through the hole above it down into that hole if it suddenly starts to move etc. And then move to the new world, and never come back to the town...
I’ve become so engulfed in this entire series of all the different vampires and werewolves of every type that I’m genuinely ecstatic for a new video. Thanks brother!
I forgot about this movie even though I liked it. I'm glad you covered a Celtic mythological creature and I wish there were more movies about Celtic history, real or myth.
Just a bit of trivia. Stoker got the idea for 'Dracula ' from a story from John Polidori, who wrote and published 'The Vampype' in 1819. Stoker wrote his 'Dracula ' in 1897.
I don’t think the “local Chieftain” is Native American. Back during the medieval period before the English conquered most of Ireland, the Irish weren’t united instead they were divided into clans each with their local leaders thus “chieftain”
Weird choice yes ... but as a normal human beeing i understood that he obviously didnt mean native americans when he says chieftain .. but it is most common image that people associate with that word and maybe he thought its funny or whatever...
What do you expect from the Americans they have no history or culture of their own they have zero knowledge of our celtic history except for what hollywood has shown them
Haven't seen the movie. But from your summary, I think Abhartach would get buried pretty quickly by the majority of the other vampires you've covered. Mainly because of his lackluster speed and strength. However I wouldn't be surprised this was just him at his worst, a severely weakened state. And that his "prime" would be an absolutely beastly on top of his healing and resistances to conventional vampire weaknesses.
I mean he got buried by a regular human village chief so maybe not so impressive in the past either. I can't imagine the progenitor of all vampires from underworld or blade getting wrecked by a normal village dude.
Pretty cool it can make you bleed to death by presence alone. Seems like a cool power that more leans to the magical vampire rather than strength alone.
@@patricknorris9334 thought that too. If we're being charitable to the Abhartach, you could say we don't know the context like maybe they had magic at their disposal or they off guarded him or something.
You seem to forget the humans have infinite blood in the movie plot ... So the passive blood draining does nothing to weaken them. Also the power did not work on the hero and his daddy .... Somehow.
I think the question of the strongest vampire depends on your definition of "strength". I would say this is the most resilient vampire because it literally cannot die and only be temporarily stopped, but I would say it is one of the weakest vampires because it is not physically strong any more so than a normal human from what we had seen in the movie.
CoolWritter1 :"Nothing can kill it; this vampire is invencible!!!" CoolWritter2: "Let's use grandpa's toe" CoolWriter3: "That did the trick!" Kawabunga 😂😂😂
Just because a stake doesn't work that doesn't mean you can't effectively kill one of these. You'd think they'd have at least dismembered the monster and buried the parts in separate holes so it has no way of being mobile. Thermite is worth a try too. Bury the ashes in molten steel.
Heck you could even put a layer of dirt and stones inside the molten steel to really be sure...yeah with modern tech and the fact these guys are a construction company I'm sure they could find a more permanent solution to this.
Hi Cogan Lollins! Great addition to a vast collection of movies on these creatures. I'd like You to explore the movie "Wolves" 2014, which portrays Lucas Till and Jason Momoa as Werewolves. Alongside this, I highly recommend the TV series "Sanctuary", where Vampires are a major part of the plot (werewolves are present too) and where one of the main characters (a vampire) drops some of the best references too his own kind. My best regards to You!
I liked them using a foreign folklore and very old interaction of a vampire. I do think the tall, thin, ghoulish humanoid design is a little less original, but I also watched Last Voyage of The Dermeter a couple weeks ago so that's probably fresh in my mind. But for a creature that's been dormant and extremely malnourished for 1000+ years, it's fitting. I do like it summons the blood of others in the surrounding area, like blood magic. If you've ever seen Overlord, the vampire Shalltear creates a flowing blood sphere composed of the blood of surrounding bodies and this reminded me of that.
after a 26 vampire movie marthon in October...i am drawn back this Dec 22, 2023 to get more Vampire thrills.. Thanks for heads up on what to watch next.
I recommend checking the film called, “Bitten” which is a 2008 Canadian black comedy vampire film directed by Harv Glazer. It stars Jason Mewes aka Jay from Jay and Silent Bob fame.
I think the Abhartach is a bit more dangerous than Dracula. Mainly because Dracula wasn't unkillable. From what we know, the Abhartach cannot be killed, only temporarily stopped. Also. There's a movie called The Revenant from 2009. I think its worth to make a video out of it.
This is actually a well constructed concept and creation of a great story into a film utilizing some Irish Celtic mythology and lore in conjunction with some modern day mythology and vampire lore. I liked this concept. Now as far as delivery of the movie and plot loopholes could have been better presented; but all in all, the movie was well worth watching and definitely belongs in one’s collection of vampire films. On a side note I have book recommendation for you all to read: it is called: Murcheston The Wolf’s Tale by David Holland. It is one of the best werewolf books ever. And I don’t say that lightly. It’s really good. Enjoy your videos and reviews guys. Keep up the great content! 👍🙏👍👍🙌🙌
The name in reference to a Pogues song drew me here, the story itself was to me reminiscent of the Clive Barker story Rawhead Rex from the Books of Blood
When the ultimate smartest thing, be to bury it under the asphalt in the road, and maybe have some of the stones under said asphalt,kind of like a multi layered road of settlement?
I just watched this movie for the first time last week. The bleeding effects/feeding was a bit weird for me after so many vampire movies with the whole neck bite thing going but it was good.
I wonder if it would be possible to stop the Abhartach by decapitating it if you moved it's head far enough away and secured it so it couldn't seek out the body.
Was looking to say the same! Confused me for a second until I realised he means the Irish chieftains not a Native American chieftain came over to steak it.
You should review a film from my homeland of Bohemia/the Czech Republic a film called Svatba upírů It's about young english noble visiting prague with his uncle. Later the young nobleman meets a beutifull noblewoman that he falls in love with but later discovers that she and her abusive "husband" the count are vampires and are part of secrect vampire noble society but power of love inside of our hero is strong so he desides to save the noblewoman and defeat the powerfull master vampire.
A cool film for sure and I'll definitely give it a watch. Two items that might make good videos are the X-Files episode Skins as it is about a Native American Werewolf not a Skinwalker but something else. And the film Wer which many that I know have thoroughly enjoyed it.
I didn't know your channel focused on Werewolves and Vampires, but that makes me like it even more! lol The first video I saw was the LoEGentleman and I thought your channel was just movie summary type stuff. I'm even more excited because I love vampire/werewolf type stuff.... Well, really any types of ancient legends of the night. Great stuff man! - leifo
Very interesting dissection of a unique vampire, but I will say that it’s a bit odd that you used the icon/imagery of a north American indigenous chief to represent an Irish chieftain.
Brings to mind the Viking legend of the Draugr, a vampire/zombie mix. Some legends say that a Draugr could not be destroyed, only defeated . The way to defeat it was to put in the ground and put a giant rock or similar on top of it. And I think Stoker got inspiration from lots of places.
Great video, but there's a pretty significant difference between a chieftain in Ireland and a Native American Chief. Unless that was the joke, in that case, my bad.
Should you find the time please do a vid on The Passage series from 2019. There’s only 1 season but it’s really good & a bit different from other vampire movies & shows 👍
I herd that a lot of times the Irish will divert roads around certain bushes and large rocks instead of remove them due to superstitions of angering the Fae. Would be better if you didn't place any icons at all, than a native American Chieftain, when talking about a Celtic Chieftain.
True they also had different slash take on vampires and they also used were 🐺🐾🐾🐺 and other some famous and some not creatures and monsters from other cultures and myths.
How can you of all people say that this vampire is among the most powerful ? You haven't thought this through, have you ? Just because he can't be permanently killed doesn't make him powerful. Hell, given his almost human-like strength and speed, he is not even a major threat. He would be relatively easily dispatched even by a human (as seen in this movie). Then, to keep him "down", the next steps I would take are: 1) chop him up into (20) smaller pieces 2) each piece will be cast into CONCRETE, and then placed in a thick STEEL box, which will then be welded shut. 3) each box will be sent to different REMOTE and unpopulated parts of the world, where they would be burried DEEP in the ground, in small tombs cast in CONCRETE. 4) just for good measure, have a couple of boxes thrown in the middle of the oceans, with a weight attached to them, to make sure they sink and stay on the ocean floor. Maybe even have a scuba-diver dig a deep hole and bury a box somewhere deep underwater. 5) I just thought about throwing a piece in a volcano :) I'd like to see him put himself together after that ..
Bro the abortack is super weak, just cause it cant die doesn’t mean shit if you can just bury it in a hole and leave a ton of hgie rocks on it and it’ll be stuck forever
It’s interesting to see a vampire whose main danger comes just from his true immortality, rather than superhuman abilities. No strength, speed, flying, etc. Just a “normal” guy that you can’t kill no matter what. The blood absorption thing is the only part besides being immortal that feels truly supernatural. I also wonder if the black skin was him being burned at one point or if it’s just from centuries buried underground, being slowly deprived of blood and almost mummifying from the dirt.
there's also an interesting movie set in ireland and stars gemma arteton and saorise ronan as vampires hunted by a coven that see them as aberrations. movie's called 'byzantium' and came out back in 2012.
It’s really interesting that the destruction of the cairn is so important to the plot, considering the historic precedent of not destroying or passing through known fairy-related sites in Ireland. Great video!

Great flick, cheers for covering it mate. Also the Undertaker bit got me. Also any chance of doing From The Dark 2014
Another good one. I watched it again a few months ago.
The stakes have to be wooden some stories say the only sood that will kill them are either ash or gopher wood
ahh-ver-tach, sorry it sticks in my craw. also showing an icon of an native american due to the term 'chieftain' is... interesting.
Basically, his ancestor was the chief of the Irish tribes or one of the tribes.
90% of our myths are "do not fuck with the fairy's"
The other 10% is
"for godsake don't go into the woods!"

4) just for good measure, have a couple of boxes thrown in the middle of the oceans, with a weight attached to them, to make sure they sink and stay on the ocean floor. Maybe even have a scuba-diver dig a deep hole and bury a box somewhere deep underwater.
5) I just thought about throwing a piece in a volcano :)

Bro the abortack is super weak, just cause it cant die doesn’t mean shit if you can just bury it in a hole and leave a ton of hgie rocks on it and it’ll be stuck forever
I'll admit that this was an interesting new take on the vampire, even I didn't like it as much as I thought I would.
Very unique way of feeding too
He’s probably just in a weakened state and needs to feed more to be at its full power
Now that you mentioned warhammer I almost want you to do a video on the blood angels
Could you cover the werewolves from Bitten?
Love your videos! Keep up the great work
14:57 I don't know about that one chief Caine or Lilith from vampire the Masquerade can wash this thing no problem
Good shit happy holidays to you and everyone whomever is watching 🤘
PLAY SOME SKYNYRD!!! nah seriously, love your content
Can you cover American vampire comic and shiki anime and call of the night
It doesn't have to die it just needs to fit in like eight boxes that can be buried far far away
It’s interesting to see a vampire whose main danger comes just from his true immortality, rather than superhuman abilities. No strength, speed, flying, etc. Just a “normal” guy that you can’t kill no matter what. The blood absorption thing is the only part besides being immortal that feels truly supernatural. I also wonder if the black skin was him being burned at one point or if it’s just from centuries buried underground, being slowly deprived of blood and almost mummifying from the dirt.
Please make videos about the Legacy of Kain series!
Ooh will have to give this a watch. Vampires from Warhammer Fantasy perhaps?
Am I the only one that knows this as a Pogues song? RIP Shane. 😢
This is an awesome movie
I’ve always think vampires should be gory and gruesome
I know it’s an anime but why not review the Hellsing Ultimate’s OAVs
Great movie!
The werewolves from Cursed(2005) is a suggestion.
I bet they could encase it in cement
Can you please do a video on the werewolves from The Howling (1981).
It's skin is dark like that because it was starting to mummify from being in the ground for so long..
How the hell have I not heard about this.
15:04 I just can’t escape warhammer I mean I was building models while listening to this video
I lived in Ireland for 6 years. I guarantee this Vampire legend moved from blood to being sustained by Guinness and laughter!
there's also an interesting movie set in ireland and stars gemma arteton and saorise ronan as vampires hunted by a coven that see them as aberrations. movie's called 'byzantium' and came out back in 2012.
I FREAKIN' LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I haven't seen this ( typing from Ireland)
Jaysus you under a pile of rocks or wot 😂
@@upsidedown1986 😆 it on my list .
Same lad how the hell of I not heard of this.
They should cover the pile of rocks in concrete. Make it a huge concrete block under the house or barn wherever it was
Cogan have you ever considered covering cursed staring christina ricci and jesse eisenberg and also the us version of being human
