    For those of you who can’t access the explicit version or the movie: Mia’s mom overdosed on sleeping pills and locked herself in the bedroom. Mia thinks it was an accident, and the ghost possessing Riley tells her it wasn’t suicide. Mia’s dad reads her the suicide note that he’d kept hidden.

    It's amazing how a couple of CZcamsrs made this movie on a $4 million dollar budget and it made $90 million at the box office. I love it when smaller passion projects like this get the love they deserve and make it big.
    This movie is a better drug PSA than most actual PSA's. Mia is grieving, finds a drug that takes away the pain however briefly and she gets addicted to it. It starts to ruin her life and hurt her friends and instead of abandoning the drug she starts relying on it more and more until it takes her life. Her lying to the moms face " i know you wouldnt do anything to hurt him" when she is planning to stab Riley in the next few minutes is clear as fucking day parallel to how drug addicts treat the people who love them.

      I 100% agree. Dealing with addicts is so much like this. They tell you whatever you want to hear in the moment, I think they believe it themselves at some point. But then they go back to the drug and hurt everyone around them. It's sad. Sometimes they do get and stay clean though. I just don't trust them until I know they're clean for an extended amount of time.

      That’s why “CZcamsr” doesn’t mean “hacky video maker”. They were bonafide artists before the film so it’s no surprise at all they were capable of a financially successful debut. Who better to make a film than someone who does it habitually on a much smaller scale. This won’t be so weird going forward and this notion of a “CZcamsr” directing something lucrative on screen will seem more logical as this generation is the first when CZcams came about right when those skills could be honed. You’ll see a lot more of this as this era of younger content creator (compared to prototypical ages of directorial debuts) shifts slowly into bigger budgets cross platform. Plenty of unicorns serve as proof of concept like Bo burnham Or even a more traditional Hollywood studio backed approach like Trachtenberg.

      The fact that Mia has lost her mother is what enables the spirit to lure her in and possess Riley... I wonder what the metaphor is there. Do you suppose it could be referring to how substances like alcohol and drugs can be addictive for people who've suffered some tragedy and/or are just generally depressed, because it can put a Band-Aid on the pain they're feeling?

      @@Cat-uo4vwnot rlly. Seeing as the movie starts off with that exact same thing with it being cold with her dad and making her dad seem like a unloving parent and then warming up when she gets to her friends house, and how the movie ends. It’s safe to assume the movie is mostly from Mia’s POV and that she’s the “main character”. That being said everyone looking cold is most likely how Mia feels herself especially with her seemingly still having feelings for her ex boyfriend her best friend is dating. After she grabs the hand and everyone comes to life that’s most likely her achieving that “high” and starting to have a good time with everyone. It most likely isn’t about her making a fool of herself as everyone else seemed to also do it as well at some point in the movie meaning they genuinely were having a good time with it. It also doesn’t rlly work with all the parallels with possession being equal to drugs either. All in all it was probably just Mia feeling out of place, especially since we know it’s not how the others are feeling as the dad who is also shown as cold is proven to be extremely loving and just doesn’t know how to move forward after the death of Mia’s mom.

    The entire movie is already a clever metaphor for drug addiction but what really adds to the punch is that EVERYONE was fine doing the drug recreationally at first until suddenly one of them wasn't. And folks were so worried about one character that they completely missed the fact that Mia was ALSO spiraling until it was too late.

    I loved this movie, how it focused on characters, narrative and atmosphere rather than purely the gore, effects and jumpscares though it also has effective visuals. It gets us really invested in the characters, make them sympathetic, and immediately introduces a strong narrative with Mia and her relationships with others. The way it also speaks to really emotional themes like drug abuse and grief, yet also manages to be very relatable and funny, and actually portrays Gen-Z not as stereotype assholes but as these awkward teens who are realistically flawed. Leaving the movie theatre I just felt invigorated, and really stunned honestly, was not expecting this film to be this good, at least for me personally. How the hell a movie can do a fresh twist on an Exorcism is insane.

  • @Wolfbane382
    @Wolfbane382 Před 6 měsíci +187

    I honestly love this movie. And after seeing it, I got to thinking about the hand itself. I can't help but wonder if it's an alternate version of The Hand of Glory. For those of you who don't know, The Hand of Glory is a cursed object made by drying/pickling the hand of a murderer who was hung at the gallows. Another version of it is the hand is made into a candle, using the fat of a man who was also convicted of murder and hung from the gallows. Much like The Black Flame candle from Hocus Pocus.
    Unlike in the movie, The Hand of Glory is said to do three different things. In its candle form, it will only light up for the person who's holding it as well as make people who see it go completely motionless. While in its dried/pickled form, it's said to unlock any door the holder comes across. There are other stories, one being about the hand being used for a robbery in Spital Inn in North Stainmore in 1797.
    After asking a friend of mine about the idea of using a hand to talk to the dead, I was told that yes it is very possible. It's a form of Nercomancy and during the olden days, the Norse would use the skulls of loved ones to speak to them. So that might be where the idea of the hand in the movie came from.

    I like the metaphor for drug addiction. The characters don't see the danger of what they're dealing with until it's too late, and from then on it becomes incredibly difficult to get rid of. The idea that if you spend too much time possessed, the spirits will "want to stay" is like how it becomes more difficult to quit using drugs the longer you're on them. And when Cole says that the spirits get weaker the longer they're in your body, you could say that's a parallel to the way your body detoxes once you quit - it gradually flushes the drugs out of your system. Even the scene where Jade talks to Haley outside of school wanting to try the possession "game" again comes across like a drug deal. Awesome film!
