    Morals of the story:
    1) Talking mirrors are not your friend.
    2) Make friends that would notice if you disappeared for weeks.

    I love it! no dumb jump scares, no unnecessary blood or gore or any of those things. Its so cool to see something so psychologically chilling. Its kind of like an exaggeration of how getting too into something can be really dangerous and can make you loose track of life

  • @teamfore1201
    @teamfore1201 Před rokem +167

    It's actually very thrilling because it basically defines our society. Obsessing over our reflection that we loose track of what's important in our lives and then we perish without archiving anything or doing anything positive with our lives...good one, now I know I have to work on the toxic relationships I have with my reflection

    Reminds me of the Mirror of Erised in Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone, a mirror which shows its subject the deepest and most desperate desires of their hearts. More specifically, it echoes what Albus Dumbledore himself said about the mirror:
    "But remember this Harry, this mirror gives us neither knowledge, or truth. Men have wasted way in front of it...even gone mad."

    @ludwigtheholyblade79 Před rokem +85

    I never pick any free chairs, tables, mirrors, lamp shades, or other furniture items out from the lot...no matter how clean they look. There is always a sense of uneasiness tied with them that someone might have used them in an unholy manner.

    I honestly love this new take on the mirror horror, in which instead of it being a separate entity in the mirror, it causes a physical malfunction resulting to your demise from starvation and thirst, and even than, you can look at this in a metaphorical term.

    3:06 This scene is one of the best in the horror genre, it's simple, it's simple but it's extremely effective because, it's not a scream and that's it, it's taking the time to show what the mirror can do, it's certainly not a scene It traumatized you, but it's a scene you'll always remember.
    PD: The entire cast of this film is great, seriously the camera movement is good, the performances are good and above all the ending is very well thought out.
