The ending of that movie though, like the ramifications of them investigating the crimes and knowing now that they've made it worse, that sticks with you long after the movies over. That's what I love about that movie.
@@RictusHolloweye A real WTF moment would have been if the stoner would have taken his shirt off and gone for a swim. The reason the actor, Franz Kranz, didn't go for a swim in the movie is that, In real life, the dude was more jacked than Chris Hemsworth at that time, and it would have ruined the look of the character. But man, I wouda loved to have seen that,lol.
I almost turned it off during the opening montage because what’s the point after that? The entire movie was laid out during the opening credits. How did anyone manage to not see the killer running all backwards like Meryl Streep in Death Becomes Her”? Who is bankrolling the “omigod best ending ever! Best twist ever!” narrative all over the Internet? It’s like James Charles ass: everywhere.
I called it… because I knew it was basically the same trope we’ve seen before of “insane, murderous split personality”. Yes, there’s variation in whether it’s the person being insane, if the personality is a ghost possessing their body, or - as in Malignant - some pseudoscience bs, but it’s the same core trope. The protagonist’s body is the same one doing the murders.
The beating scene in the black phone hit hard for me because I've been beaten like that when I was a boy but I tried defending myself so they grabbed my hand lifting it holding me up and continued beating me as I flailed around. Honestly, it was the worst beating I ever got. It came from my mom's ex-boyfriend.
I’ve said it before. And I’ll continue to say it. I HATE “funny games”. Both films. The rewind pissed me off so much that I almost screamed at the screen in the movie theater.
Curtis - I screamed in anger and actually threw my slipper *at* our television (1997 version, on videotape)...my Hubs was shocked into silence by my uncharacteristic reaction (I never even bothered with the remake, though I love Naomi Watts). Normally other than a making a face or comment, I didn't let horror movies get under my skin like that...but Haneke broke *that* for me. 😒
I've only seen the USA version,and it was so in poor taste, even for horror, that I will never watch the original one. That movie made Lars Von Trier look like Walt Disney.
@@TheTurkaderr - Haneke said (in an interview) he made the movie to 'provoke'...and he achieved *that,* no doubt. I truly dislike the original, didn't waste any time on the remake...and Mr. Von Trier 'tries my patience', as well.
I think what I loved about the OG Texas Chainsaw is the lack of blood and gore. It’s such a horrifying and brutal premise,but the lack of gore makes it a lot more tolerable
People tend to remember the movie as being much bloodier than it actually was. That's how it got on the "Video Nasties" list. The goriest thing in the movie is the "artwork" at the beginning of the movie, made from various dug up corpses.
While I don't mind gore at all, the LESS it is used, the more creative the scares have to be. Films like the TCM and the original Alien have surprisingly little gore, but the terror and suspense is infinitesimal.
@@rottendamians so true, so true! That "Hitchcockian" suspense just isn't being done much any more. It's all shock for shock's sake, or simple "the whole family can see it" BS, and nothing like what these movies were made to be anymore.
You guys have been on a real roll lately! After a few weeks of seemingly the same mainstream and overly indulged cult favs being featured (this one still has a few but includes some great hidden gems), this channel has produced some excellent lists this last week or so that have shined a spotlight on lesser known classics. Thanks, WCH crew, for the great content!
Gabriel was literally operating backwards through all the scenes and had the same dreadful wig as Madison. Are we also going to ignore Exorcist 3: Legion nurse scene with the shears tho
When what culture horror includes Malignant, on a video of 'obvious twists hinted at from the beginning' and then also in a video saying, "Anyone who says they saw it coming is lying" 🤔
@@HJ-si7hd Exactly, it's literally even in the title of the film! I still don't believe anyone that says they were shocked by the twist (or that they enjoyed Malignant, for that matter)
No one could know the 'twist' in Malignant? Dude, it's literally laid out in the first five minutes of the movie, the entire parasitic twin plot was shown under the beginning credits via medical documents, it wasn't surprising at all.
Can I add The Babysitter to this list? While I knew they were up to something, I didn't expect it to happen so suddenly after the spin the bottle scene 🤷🏻♂️🤣
@@vistathon don't let me put you off, it had its moments. It's just that they didn't really have anywhere to go after the first one, so they went in the dumbest direction possible. Still might be worth checking out if you enjoyed the first one, though🤷♂ but don't be expecting great things...
Didn't like it at all myself (I found it to be a pretty dull, all-style-no-substance Wicker Man ripoff with unlikeable and dumb characters and an insanely bloated runtime), but I will admit that the cliff-jumping/giant hammers scene was totally unexpected and absolutely fucking brutal! It almost made me cut the rest of that shitty movie some slack, it was so good. Not quite, but almost...
Hereditary will always be the ultimate WTF moment to me. Because you're already trying to wrap your mind around the fact that the kid WENT TO BED after his sister was DECAPITATED, then the sounds of the mom in utter shock and agony. THEN THEY SHOW HER FUCKING HEAD! And, I have a phobia about ants and spiders in large groups, like when they're pulsating in groups with each other, so the ants all over her head was worse for me than the gore of her face. He was a genius for putting the ants on her head, it would not have been as effective if it were just bare or had flies or something else. Ants made it so much worse. And also sort of reminded me of the drone-like feel of the other members of the cult in the last scene of the movie and how they were surrounding the house and yard .Like they've already begun the process of capturing the family, and now they have Charlie, her soul, her body...her head! lol
Malignant, Hereditary, Don't Look Now, Funny Games, Barbarian, Texas Chainsaw... this channel has certainly had it's moneys worth out of these movies. I'm pretty sure Ari Aster works in the office with them or something!
I actually thought it would include The Ring’s jump scare, when the mother of the first victim talks about her daughter. And we suddenly cut to a shot of her corpse.
Malignant’s ending is sooooo easy to spot. Anytime you see the killers hands you see that the thumbs are on the wrong sides. And given you already have seen the beginning where they show the parasite on the protagonists back, you can immediately connect who is doing the killing.
For months after that movie, I'd wander around the house and randomly utter " It's time to cut out the cancer !! ", I just loved the over the top batshit of that movie!! I did a movie two years ago with Madison Wolfe, who plays the youngest version of the lead character, and the movie had just come out a while before and I was just babbling to her how much I loved it.
I really liked Malignant, it was different, wasn't the typical horror movie, i didn't pay attention to the opening so it did kinda surprise me it was a parasitic twin, the part that threw me was when he was going down the fire escape, thats when i realized he was walking backwards that was pretty cool
"If anyone says they saw Malignant's big plot twist coming, they're lying." Are you out of your mind? I never knew it was supposed to be a twist! They SHOW Gabriel in the opening scene!
saying that people are lying if they said they saw Malignant's twist coming, while also saying the movie was poorly written is hilarious. I went on a date to see it and we both got incredibly close to guessing the twist lol. They give it away in the opening credits and leading up to the twist it becomes more obvious if youre paying attention to stuff.
Umm....I figured out the plot twist in "Malignant" and I'm not lying! LOL Just watch the opening scene. We know there's a parasitic twin (although that's not at all how parasitic twins work) strapped to her back. Read the paperwork they show during the beginning credits. It gives it all away.
I called malignant's ending about half way through.....though I didn't think that I was actually right. It was the way Gabriel ran away and leapt down the fire escape that gave it away for me
Same and the opening was so telling. I was saying I thought it would be a split personality but knowing it was supposed to be body horror I thought Basket case… naturally
Starting to skip to the end to make sure Gabriel Sheenan didn't write the article, then skipping back, so I don't waste my time. I don't want Ellie to feel bad about it, she is doing the best she can with shit writing, I'm sure.
I mean…the intro to Malignant features information about conjoined twins and procedures…and she goes dark when she gets hit in the head multiple times…and Gabriel was mentioned as her imaginary friend… I will say that the reveal is still bombastic and well shot. It’s fairly well set up, though.
In addition to the main reveal twist in MALIGNANT, you're also led to believe it's having what is looking to be an incredibly downbeat ending, until they pull the rug out from under you again and you realize she has trapped Gabriel back inside her mind. It really saves the movie, because I was ready to break my tv if that movie had ended on that note.
I really liked Malignant, even though I knew about the twist because it was spoiled by this very channel...I just had trouble with the final rampage because it depicted the Gabriel character as being supernaturally fast, agile and deadly.....and an entire precinct full of armed cops as a bunch of complete goofs who were so inept that they'd need instructions to put their pants on, THEN their shoes. And it was unnecessary because by that point we'd already seen the sort of mass violence that Gabriel was capable of. We didn't need an almost computer game type shoot out sequence as well.
That one of my favorite scenes of any movie. Soon as she starts shaking in the cell till gabriel runs out the door. The chair is hilarious, he had better aim than Tom Brady with that thing
Reece - My unbeloved stepfather was of a similar vein...glad Ellie warned us about this scene in advance, or I'd have had a *very* not-so-good reaction upon viewing it. 😒
@@CynAnne1 glad you didn't see it out of the blue if it got me bad it would have been 10000% worse for you, I'm sorry your stepfather was an evil b*stard
Good job on this one! Only thing that would make it better for me is when the clips are showing, the name of the movie stayed showing. I get so caught up in the clips i forget the name of the movie sometimes 😅
Leatherface's original appearance is my favourite character reveal/jumpscare in horror cinema history. It might even be my favourite scene in a horror movie full stop
Without a doubt, TCM's scene - I would rank that one higher just for it's unforgettable chill it gave me the first time. Right behind the #1 choice, which is absolutely correct!!!
the scenes where you're not sure if you're watching things that have already happened or are going to happen in the future really messed with me. The boats in the canal, with the wife. I was like, " okay, are these flashbacks, or flash forwards ? Who's dead here ? "
I loved The Invisible Man but that knife seen just seemed so fake and implausible to me, like the way the knife gets slid into her hand, I don’t know I didn’t find it realistic 🤷🏻♂️
Spot on. I was bored with both "Malignant" and "Hereditary" up until the scenes you discussed. Watched them both again and while "Malignant" was still pretty boring throughout, "Hereditary" definitely was not!
'Invisible Man' was not as good as they make it out to be. It was better than expected, because the bar was set low before it came out. It's enjoyable the first time, but I'm not sure if there is any replay value yet, as there has been no desire to revisit it.
I thought the Invisible Man restaurant scene was a major plot hole for the film, because of how the knife conveniently teleported into her hand a 1/2 second after he cut her sister's throat.
My parents were watching Hereditary in the living room, and I knew exactly when *that* scene happened. My stepdad screaming "HOLY F#&K!" was dead give away.
I hated the 2020 Invisible Man and the ending twist of Funny Games just pissed me off. I get that they wanted to make a statement about horror movies in general, but it's so unreasonably lazy to just have the villain "rewind the movie" to undo their fuck up. It's such a stupid, out of nowhere cop-out.
Seeing people call the belt beating in Black Phone domestic abuse is very accurate but also quite jarring as beatings like this were par for the course for a lot of Gen X.
@karl_alan Noo fracking way! Is that how this how this big blue marble Gaya works?! I would've never guessed! Yeah it was stupid dude, everything about it.
No lawnmower scene from Sinister or Megan's body from Megan is Missing? Hereditary is so overrated and is always appearing on these lists. Midsommar was amazing though.
'Malignant,' much like 'Leprechaun' and 'Get Out,' is not a horror movie. It's a comedy lampooning horror. 'Hereditary' is just slow. Her head popping off was hilarious, especially given how annoying the character was. They should have made the clucking noise then.
Malignant's twist didn't come out of nowhere. At the beginning you know they were trying to cut something off a little girl's back to stop violent tendencies that the girl clearly was not in control of. You know early that Madison was adopted and didn't remember much of her childhood. The fact Gabriel had been sewn up into her head may have been a surprise, but I suspected an incomplete separation or teratoma pretty early. The movie just went too far. How do you smush a second brain and FACE into one skull and not have a huge deformed melon head? How is it that Madison never reached where the blood was coming from and felt around? Or anyone else for that matter? How did the fact her head had opened up not caused further serious complications?
okay Malignant's twist is completely given away by the intro sequence! and then the bleeding? and the face? the backward elbows? it was really obvious what was gonna happen. i don't understand why you guys love this movie so much. it's pretty bad.
I yawned a lot - Most of the films have been mentioned on other lists quite a few times before. In fact, the only real noticeable difference was that Ellie was on screen through most of it.
That scene from Gonjiam where that girl starts spouting gibberish with the blacked out eyes. What made it worse was that she was right in your face with it.
The remote scene from Funny Games is still the worst movie scene I have ever watched in my life. Funny Games is the most pretentious piece of shit media on the planet , and this is from somebody who read Crash
I have a few issues with 'Summer of '84'. For one the identity of the killer. Spoilers: From the start the kids are suspecting one guy and it turns out they were right the entire time. Second, the killers kills one of the main characters at the end and tells the other one he will let him live for nor but will return for him when he's grown up, except everyone now knows he's the killer so there will be a national man hunt for him.
The trailer for Hereditary did it a HUGE disservice. They set it up to be this creepy, tongue-clicking girl who's terrorizing everyone. When the movie turned out to be an examination of grief and family dynamics in grief where Charlie is just staring blankly and being mildly weird only to get her head knocked off was so jarring, that I hated the movie for years. If they'd just pitched it as Toni Collette giving a masterclass in grief that something spooky is later tied to, I would have been onboard from the start.
I disagree with MALIGNANT, with the first few kills I clocked the twist coming. Gabriel literally walks backwards, arms are backwards, and has long dark hair... not hard to figure out.
“Summer of ‘84” is a _wild_ jumpscare, it’s like if “Stand By Me” suddenly shifted gears into “Don’t Breathe”.
so like if the dead body wasn't dead?
@@ellnats _tonally_ obviously…?
@@rossjones1530 yup
Perfect analogy
The ending of that movie though, like the ramifications of them investigating the crimes and knowing now that they've made it worse, that sticks with you long after the movies over. That's what I love about that movie.
The lawnmower scene in Sinister is the one that kinda gets me. It may not be entirely out of left field, but i definitely did not expect it 😂
Cabin in The Woods should be on here, when Chris Hemsworth uses the motor bike to jump, only to run into invisible wall.
Good call !! Definitely a wtf moment
They telegraphed that one with a bird flying into the wall earlier on.
@@RictusHolloweye Yeah, I was gonna say that, you knew they were in some weird place pretty much from the opening.

If anyone tells you they saw Malignant's ending coming, they're either lying, or they were paying attention to the opening sequence.
They probably paused and slow- moed the opening montage 😂
Yeah - I also called it. The scene where someone is getting stabbed in the bed also king of gives it away.

I thought the Invisible Man restaurant scene was a major plot hole for the film, because of how the knife conveniently teleported into her hand a 1/2 second after he cut her sister's throat.
The only way anyone could have seen Malignant’s plot twist coming is if you watched the opening credits and payed attention to the details
Malignant’s big twist is spoiled in the opening credits.
I saw malignant’s plot twist coming 30 minutes into the movie. Idk how ppl didn’t. The opening made it obvious that she had a conjoined twin.
The Invisible Man was a drama, not a horror.
My parents were watching Hereditary in the living room, and I knew exactly when *that* scene happened. My stepdad screaming "HOLY F#&K!" was dead give away.
I hated the 2020 Invisible Man and the ending twist of Funny Games just pissed me off. I get that they wanted to make a statement about horror movies in general, but it's so unreasonably lazy to just have the villain "rewind the movie" to undo their fuck up. It's such a stupid, out of nowhere cop-out.
Yay, it's Ellie!
The gimmick in "Funny Games" is stupid beyond belief. I can't believe how often it earns a place in Mojo Horror videos.
This is WhatCulture, but it's an honest mistake, since Culture has been gradually morphing into Mojo.
A face 2 the voice? I love it
Seeing people call the belt beating in Black Phone domestic abuse is very accurate but also quite jarring as beatings like this were par for the course for a lot of Gen X.
Nice video but dude, Georgie's arm at the beginning of It. Was definitely not expecting that
I kept wondering if their necklace was through or behind the mic cord.
Actually, the medical records in the opening of Malignant did kind of gives it away... As one of your channels previous countdowns states...
Malignant was just stupid. Stupid plot, stupid characters and stupid twist 😂. And I love James Wan!
Agreed !! Extremely overrated
Thank you, I feel like I'm going crazy the way people keep praising this dog shit movie
@onionbubs386 Lol right?! I feel like people just straight lowered the bar on this one.
It's almost like different people have different tastes in art, and while some people really connect with something, others may not.
@karl_alan Noo fracking way! Is that how this how this big blue marble Gaya works?! I would've never guessed! Yeah it was stupid dude, everything about it.
Trouble with Invisible Man was that the best kill was spoiled by the trailer 🤦
The shark eating Samual Jackson's character in deep blue sea.
No lawnmower scene from Sinister or Megan's body from Megan is Missing?
Hereditary is so overrated and is always appearing on these lists. Midsommar was amazing though.
What do you mean you don't see Malignant's plot twist coming? The murder literally walks backwards the whole time, it's so on the nose 😭
Malignant was great but the movie is given away in the opening credits if you pay attention.
'Malignant,' much like 'Leprechaun' and 'Get Out,' is not a horror movie. It's a comedy lampooning horror.
'Hereditary' is just slow. Her head popping off was hilarious, especially given how annoying the character was. They should have made the clucking noise then.
Malignant's twist didn't come out of nowhere. At the beginning you know they were trying to cut something off a little girl's back to stop violent tendencies that the girl clearly was not in control of. You know early that Madison was adopted and didn't remember much of her childhood. The fact Gabriel had been sewn up into her head may have been a surprise, but I suspected an incomplete separation or teratoma pretty early. The movie just went too far. How do you smush a second brain and FACE into one skull and not have a huge deformed melon head? How is it that Madison never reached where the blood was coming from and felt around? Or anyone else for that matter? How did the fact her head had opened up not caused further serious complications?
Hellz yeah...that dwarf in DLN
Malignant is bae of 2022
okay Malignant's twist is completely given away by the intro sequence! and then the bleeding? and the face? the backward elbows? it was really obvious what was gonna happen. i don't understand why you guys love this movie so much. it's pretty bad.
I wish Ellie would read me horror stories for bedtime every single night. It would be a good life
Enter Leatherface? Does he buy be dinner first?🤤
No love for the ending of Pieces? That definitely came out of nowhere.
I yawned a lot - Most of the films have been mentioned on other lists quite a few times before. In fact, the only real noticeable difference was that Ellie was on screen through most of it.
Just because someone's short, doesn't mean they're a dwarf. Dwarfism is a specific medical condition.
That scene from Gonjiam where that girl starts spouting gibberish with the blacked out eyes. What made it worse was that she was right in your face with it.
Am I the only one who thought that movie wasn't even a tiny bit scary?
@@jonsnow3300 It doesn't really scare me, but I don't really get scared by horror movies anymore. To each their own, I guess.
The remote scene from Funny Games is still the worst movie scene I have ever watched in my life. Funny Games is the most pretentious piece of shit media on the planet , and this is from somebody who read Crash
I have a few issues with 'Summer of '84'. For one the identity of the killer.
Spoilers:
From the start the kids are suspecting one guy and it turns out they were right the entire time.
Second, the killers kills one of the main characters at the end and tells the other one he will let him live for nor but will return for him when he's grown up, except everyone now knows he's the killer so there will be a national man hunt for him.
The trailer for Hereditary did it a HUGE disservice. They set it up to be this creepy, tongue-clicking girl who's terrorizing everyone. When the movie turned out to be an examination of grief and family dynamics in grief where Charlie is just staring blankly and being mildly weird only to get her head knocked off was so jarring, that I hated the movie for years. If they'd just pitched it as Toni Collette giving a masterclass in grief that something spooky is later tied to, I would have been onboard from the start.
I for one welcome Ellie being on cam a lot more
Charlie’s death was based on an actual death but it was a grown man.
I disagree with MALIGNANT, with the first few kills I clocked the twist coming. Gabriel literally walks backwards, arms are backwards, and has long dark hair... not hard to figure out.
Malignant´s moment was shocking, but not scary at all.
#6 ~ Nope! That scene was garbage. Ruined the whole film.
In The Skin I Live in, you said the man the surgeon believes raped his daughter, no, the man who DID rape his daughter...
If I had a penny for every ‘protagonist’
