    IT'S SPOOKY TIME! To celebrate Hallloween, I wanted to take a look at a scary movie that wasn't intended to be scary: Baby Geniuses. I loved this movie when I was a kid, but watching it now, I am genuinely terrified. Come along and find out why Baby Geniuses is really a horror movie.

    i'm an english as a second language teacher and had to study a LOT of language acquisition science in school, and this movie was SO CLOSE to actually talking about something real! fun fact, babies actually have a truly insane capability for language and actively lose that capability as they age. a newborn can distinguish between more sounds than any adult on the planet, but by around 11 months will lose that ability and stop making those distinctions (i.e. a baby whose family speaks arabic as a native language would stop being able to distinguish between "p" and "b"). there is so, SO much more to talk about when it comes to children and their innate language skills (shoutout to my guy noam chomsky father of modern linguistic theory) and yet this movie just made shit up!!

    CUNEIFORM ISN'T A LANGUAGE! This hurt me so much, you can't "speak" cuneiform, it's the earliest form of writing and is essentially just complicated tally marks, you can't even really READ it, you're just like "oh these shapes mean there are 17 sheep in that flock" THAT'S the extent of what this system of writing can convey.

    The fantastic 70s/80s director Bob Clark (Black Christmas, Death Dream, Porky's, A Christmas Story - all fabulous films) was sadly reduced to making Baby Geniuses and Air Bud films late in his career, before dying in a car crash. He was a horror director early in his career - he invented the modern slasher two years before John Carpenter recycled many of his ides in Halloween - so he clearly had a warped sensibility.

    everytime kurtis says “folks” and then aggressively claps his hands, the circle of life continues and somewhere in the world a rainbow forms

      I have a mini existential crisis every time he claps and just lets it echo into the depths of my soul, but I recover from it in literal seconds so it's fine

    Oh god, that scene where Sly needed a disguise almost made me puke. The "call me" at the end made me have to cover my mouth to hold it down.

    17:57 I will admit, they chose a pretty good instrumental for this despite this movie being the strangest humanfiction I've ever seen and I would like to find it by itself.

    I remember watching that movie, there was some kids channel that played it all the time in the early 2000s. My mum walked in while it was on one day and was horrified by it, baby bunting was on the screen and mum didn't think it was actually a kids movie.

    I was so terrified by this movie when I first saw it on TV in 2004. The talking babies, terrifying baby mascot robot and just the uncanny valley of how the babies appeared when moving around.... just so wrong for kids, all of it!
