2:16 Was Hot Fuzz. Actually a great movie and one of my favorite comedies. I think they were probably satirizing it as they satirize a lot of tropes in their films.
Some of these are well done, it's the opening/closing and moving-the-mirror scares which were over used. The fact the films started to do this without there being anything in the mirror afterward proves that it was over done, seeing as the audience actually came to expect the opposite. It's kind of a cheap way to build suspense now, rather than an actual scare.
Yes. Now everyone knows nothing happens when someone slams mirror shut and movie makers think it's genius to put the jump scare right after that trying to get you off guard, but that is getting old as well.
Best mirror scare has to be the Shaun of the Dead one. Although it is borrowing from a (then) tired old trope, it is perfect in that the 'scare' is a suggestion, and a whole lot more horrifying than cheesy transformation/reveal.
I'm surprised they didn't add Fatal Attraction to the list. The part when the wife wipes the bathroom mirror and she sees Glenn Close is standing behind her with a butcher knife.
What would be original is when you realise the vampire doesn't have a reflection. So you expect a jump scare when the mirror closes but nothing happens then the character turns around and there's a vampire.
darkr0bo Frankly the way the actors look at the viewers via the mirrors is kind of like the director saying, "Ha, bet you were expecting that stupid cliche again, huh? Well, screw that!"
I like the use of mirrors in horror films. The best thing in horror films is when a person walks into a room or something and there is the murderer or whatever in there, but it takes a few seconds for it to register with the viewer, know what I mean?
Yes, it's from the movie (and originally, comic book) V for Vendetta, it's where the whole meme got taken from. The protagonist is a sort of terrorist against a very oppressive regime, and he uses this mask to hide old burn wounds. Later on in the movie, he gives away many masks.
There's a film called 100 feet, about a woman stuck in a house, with about 6 of these mirror "scares" but nothing ever appears in them it just used for suspense - if anyone likes these scenes ;x]
I remember there being a tv advert for car repairs where the mechanic got in the car and looking in the rear mirror, and the girl from The Ring was in the back seat, to which he went 'No, the car will be ready in LESS than 7 days.' She gets grumpy and leaves him alone
@TheLuigiPriductions. That happens because just like your ears adjust to sound over time, your eyes can adjust to images over time. However, this only happens if your eyes are completely still.
NEVER LOOKING IN THE MIRROR AGAIN. the ring movie scared me so much, and its been 3 years since i've seen it. Emotional scar much? DID NOT NEED TO SEE IT AGAIN. I've had other "surprise" samara encounterings on the internet, like gifs, random pictures in google, etc.. I totally had it coming though since I clicked on mirror scare...
The reason why when I was in Shower I never close my eyes up to 5 or 4 second... Guess what ? I scared that when I open my eyes I will see something in front of me.
Something vampires never have to worry about.
But how do they do their hair?
I mean, shouldn't they be scared of seeing a reflection?
Lol😂
Its those pills they all keep taking!
OMFG YOU BROKE THE CODE

4:11 dez nuts ha got emmm 2015
I love it when they're looking in the mirror and they turn to do something, but their reflection does what the hell it wants... *like a boss!*
Always see them coming a mile away these days
Watch the movie "winchester house" they do it really well!
Alright, so the mirror scares have been COMPLETELY over done!
oh wow
Doesn't matter how many times it is used
It is still spooky
Notice how its all mainly female.
Turndown Yes. THAT'S SEXIST. 😂😂😂
Who cares?
Super Mario you mean feminist?
Sjk Rofl feminist does
Females like mirrors, I think.
I love how you included the subversions in here! It's fun to see how some movies have managed to play with this cliche.
This is how I feel ever time I look in the mirror
Why am I watching this at 1AM...
At 3 and 23 minutes
UnityQuest lol
UnityQuest me at 9P.M >:(
1:56AM central time
Me too
Thank goodness I'm a vampire.
Bodenlose Dosenhose vampires don't exist Bodenlose u is not a vampire
Jasper Cullen r/ woooooooooosh

The last one with the woman dropping the pills was the best and most creative. Didn't see that one coming. Nice video.
That moment you're denying the need to go to the washroom after this....
Shaun of the dead lmfao
Lol love that move
Mirror scare is genius.
Sad that it's already so overused.
Yes. Now everyone knows nothing happens when someone slams mirror shut and movie makers think it's genius to put the jump scare right after that trying to get you off guard, but that is getting old as well.
I don't think i'm gonna be looking in my mirror for a wile.
dance4ever2378 Me... fucking too
Best mirror scare has to be the Shaun of the Dead one. Although it is borrowing from a (then) tired old trope, it is perfect in that the 'scare' is a suggestion, and a whole lot more horrifying than cheesy transformation/reveal.
excellent, fantastic, much better than those directed pieces. Congratulations for compilation.
I like the ones where you think something's gonna pop up in the mirror, but then nothing happens. It's like the directors way of saying "April Fools!"
Its almost strange that nothing from Oculus really fit here. That whole movie was about a malevolent mirror.
this video was made in 2010. Oculus didn't come out until 2013.
3:20-3:24 is byfar the scariest I've seen, he somehow MAGICALLY was dressed with a shirt and tie within one turn of the mirror!!!
Mirror scares are the low blows of horror movies... they just sneak into your head, you don't THINK you're scared, until you see a mirror.
2:01 random black dude in a pimp coat popping in made me lol
Jake Branthe That is the candyman who is summoned by the girl
You know it's a horror movie if dramatic music plays when they discover someone or something.
По утрам обычно собственная физиономия пугает больше, чем та, которая может оказаться сзади.
But without the sound effects, it makes it scarier, because it builds suspense
2:48 lol
Johan Dale what's the title of that movie?
I Stan Legends the movie is "Ju-On: The Grudge"
Johan Dale that one actually kind of freaked me out
A recent horror movie had a woman taking pills while looking in the mirror, and her reflection starts suggesting she take more. Anyone know the title?
sportshistorybuff mirrors movie I think
Thanks!
I'm surprised they didn't add Fatal Attraction to the list. The part when the wife wipes the bathroom mirror and she sees Glenn Close is standing behind her with a butcher knife.
I know its a mirror scare compilation but SHIT it just gets me EVERY TIME!!
Mr James Bond is funny.
0:24 so this is where terri is after she leaves will
i love the clips at the end where you think somethings going to pop out and it doesnt
"I thought you saw me"
No you did not. You knew damn well what you were doing.
Glad I don't have one of those kind of mirrors.
Sabrina Naraine meto
2:15 Ahhh! Han Solo!
3:10-3:40 are just those moments that gets our hearts pumping, and yet nothing happened
2:33 is excellently done. It's like "What, there's no sc-OH CRAP!"
It is just over 2:15 am and a girl just passed by my window..I live on the thirteenth floor.
Jai Shetty burn that building to the fucking ground
1.The James Bond one was the scariest
2.You put James Bond but not Bloody Mary
3.Because of those movies I've only seen my face in photos........
What would be original is when you realise the vampire doesn't have a reflection.
So you expect a jump scare when the mirror closes but nothing happens then the character turns around and there's a vampire.
This is great. Thanks a ton uploader!
superb
SpoooOOOOooooky
That last one was really good. :D
Am I the only one watching at 3am and laughing through the entire video?
My nightmares are *way* worse.
Candyman aaaahhhhhhhhh
3:11 what am I missing?
In those moments it builds anticipation for a jump scare but fools the viewer instead
darkr0bo Frankly the way the actors look at the viewers via the mirrors is kind of like the director saying, "Ha, bet you were expecting that stupid cliche again, huh? Well, screw that!"
It was just a fake-out that might have been effective in the movie, but it was pointless to put it in a compilation...
3:17 The presence of the ghost was felt@@D4rkkn1ght1000
It wasn't a cliché at when Halloween was made though. That will always be one of the best horrors ever
i have to admit, the mirror scene from the Unborn where the little boy is behind the mirror scared the shit outta me
0:43- Where does it come from?
Patavium 1866 have you ever managed to know the name of that movie?
immelmanful stir of echoes? somebody said that under the guy who made almost full list of movies
0:47
Cersei
Lol we have the same thought
What do you mean?
It's funny when there's a scary music but then there is nobody in the mirror XD
Not gonna lie, my heart jumped multiple times
2:48 wtf
Claudiu Ionuț It's from the original grudge movie.
Ok tanks
debkamal mullick japanese
debkamal mullick she's Japanese. The Grudge is a Japanese horror movie. Very famous in the west, though.
Afterrrr this viiideeeeoo i neverrr loook aaaatt miirrrrrorr

I like the use of mirrors in horror films. The best thing in horror films is when a person walks into a room or something and there is the murderer or whatever in there, but it takes a few seconds for it to register with the viewer, know what I mean?
Even the times when they close the cabinet and there's nothing there managed to become cliche
2:04 xena ?
from what film it's that ?
Chakraborty candyman
2:21 damn a reverse mirror jumpscare, very clever movie, very clever
That gave me good laugh. I loved the bit where the boy grabbed from mirror
Last mirror scene made me piss my pants
So hard. Its hilarious!
This was such a great video.
The one at 1:07 was executed REALLY well
Yes, it's from the movie (and originally, comic book) V for Vendetta, it's where the whole meme got taken from. The protagonist is a sort of terrorist against a very oppressive regime, and he uses this mask to hide old burn wounds. Later on in the movie, he gives away many masks.
Phantasm was terrifying
3:30 Daniel Craig be like fuck it I'm out.
There's a film called 100 feet, about a woman stuck in a house, with about 6 of these mirror "scares" but nothing ever appears in them it just used for suspense - if anyone likes these scenes ;x]
V for Vendetta! My favorite movie EVER!
when ever they look back they always dissappear
ive always had a Fear of mirrors I know that sounds silly but this video just proves my point haha
Why the hell is this so positively rated? Was bored to death waiting to see the meaning of this vid...
This is the reason why I cover my mirrors with blankets at night and this is the reason why I am deathly afraid of mirrors.
You left out the best one: Catherine Deneuve shutting the closet door in Polanski's Repulsion.
they are all so original!
LOL The Daniel Craig one, messy when he opens mirror, clean in a pressed suit when it's closed! I don't know why but I laughed so hard!
CANT WAIT TELL THIS COME OUT.BUT FOR NOW JUST WATCH THIS
How could you forget the horror movie Mirrors?! Its all about them in that one!
i don't know if i will look to a mirror ever again.
0:45 the girl in the background there is beautiful drop dead gorgeous but it’s a shame she was a horror character in some way.
i think i will never be able to look into a mirror again
Hollywood hasn't had an original idea in 20 years.
I remember there being a tv advert for car repairs where the mechanic got in the car and looking in the rear mirror, and the girl from The Ring was in the back seat, to which he went 'No, the car will be ready in LESS than 7 days.' She gets grumpy and leaves him alone
Whoever invented the mirror should get commission for this
October 20, 2018-- Whoever Published on Feb 7, 2010...You should put movie title so I know which movie there are from..
I love the candyman fart noise blood leaking.
Sometimes I wish people would stop doing that!!😱
@TheLuigiPriductions. That happens because just like your ears adjust to sound over time, your eyes can adjust to images over time. However, this only happens if your eyes are completely still.
After a minute of watching this in the dark, ima pause it and finish watching tomorrow afternoon lol
NEVER LOOKING IN THE MIRROR AGAIN.
the ring movie scared me so much, and its been 3 years since i've seen it. Emotional scar much? DID NOT NEED TO SEE IT AGAIN. I've had other "surprise" samara encounterings on the internet, like gifs, random pictures in google, etc..
I totally had it coming though since I clicked on mirror scare...
One of the reasons I never look at a mirror when I feel like someone's watching me (Even if its fake)
That was actually well managed 0:37, but i dont like jumpscares at all, they are stupid and repetitive.
Is that from chainsaw masacre btw?
some scary collection you got there bro
Im so disappointedtje amityville horror scene isnt in here
Hey, everyone needs a medicine cabinet.
The mirror scare is used to so much it has no meaning anymore
The reason why when I was in Shower I never close my eyes up to 5 or 4 second... Guess what ? I scared that when I open my eyes I will see something in front of me.
3:55 i actually didnt think that would happen and it gave me a laugh
