The Village it has a twist ending I couldn't pick up
When do you have time to watch all of these? Do not get me wrong, it is greatly appreciated as I feel like I never have time to breath. I wish I could switch places with you for a month.
The Endless Explained in 4 words: LSD in the beer.
Honestly I dont get it with this movie, it was just not good. It was so slow and boring, I dont understand why it has a 93% on rotten tomatoes, I would rate it 35 percent if I could.
@@lurker6918 I don't think you understand what 93% means. No one rated it 93% so saying you'd rate it 35% doesn't make sense.
93% means that 93% of reviewers gave it a positive review. Some of those positive reviews may have been slightly positive or may have been enthusiastically positive.
What you're really telling us is that you would agree with the 7% of reviewers that did not give this film a positive rating. That's fine.
When you look at Rotten Tomatoes Fresh Ratings, just be aware that it is no indication of how good or how bad a movie is other than the basic assumption that more people will agree if a movie is truly good or bad; but then a slightly better than mediocre movie that doesn't offend or annoy anyone at all could possibly skate by to a high RT Fresh rating while never being great at all.
@@johnsilvestri260 yes you are right and I was already aware of that, I just meant that if I could rate it, i would rate it in the lower range
R.I.P. Sonic you clearly didn’t know that, otherwise you wouldn’t have compared your rating of 35% to the RT rating of 93%. Changing the rating to 35% would mean you wanted to make 35% of people give it a positive review, which makes no sense at all
@@lurker6918 you okay there?
I'm like 95% sure they were in their own loop at the end with the empty tank comment.
*Possibly. Or they were back into their reality but since they've always been broke and "stuck on E", they're back to the loop of working a job, eating crappy food.*
actually not !! if you see in the last scene the younger brother was driving but at the beginning the elder one was!
They didn't make it out . They died when they crashed into the barrier. Notice the same creepy birds. And the younger brother never drives how does he know the tank is always on empty. The film when they left then trailer park showed them leaving over and over which was a sign of their future.
@@shawkdagod354 The whole point of the movie is that these brothers were already living a loop of working a shit job and making ends meet. At the end the older brother finally relents, literally breaking his own loop of control over the younger brother. Would make no sense to have these characters take an entire movie to go through personality-changing events, only to get stuck in a loop at the end.
SHAWK DAGOD very good point man i thought i was the only one thinking this
They collided with another car when they were escaping at the end. since they were still in the loop at that time, could that have been the accident that killed their mother. They collided with themselves. Does that make any sense to anybody? The timeless loop colliding with the outside world.
this is not a time travel
I did think that. Also right after that collision scene there’s a close up of that memorial they stopped at on the way into the camp. And you can clearly see a child’s drawing of a women and two boys by that vigil. Is it symbolic of full circle? Where their end meets their beginning, meets their end...
I need a massive blunt before I wrap my head around that.
This was one of the most clever, brilliant films I've ever seen. These guys...after Spring and Resolution and now this, they really can do no wrong. It was just incredible.
Yes yes yes yes yes! I went to school with Aaron. Such a talented dude.
I just watched it, it was great. Now I want to see their other movies
It was pretty good but there are much better/more clever movies out there if you like the sci fi time travel genre. Check out primer
jmd321321 I agree. Primer is awesome. But this is a very low budget film and it is extremely original!
its sucks for you* not overall
Any quote from H.P Lovecraft can make any movie into this kind of movie.
Trapped in a constant opiate withdrawal timeloop...MAN that's horror!
John Doe they better have Imodium and something to put on their endless raw ass from withdrawal shits forever. But I’m hoping there is a methadone clinic in them hills and valleys in and around the cult compound. 😂
Opiate addiction is about as close as you can get to experiencing an actual time loop. Everyday is a repeat of the previous one. Wake up sick, beg, borrow or steal enough cash for dope, gas & cigs. Score. Get high or at least get your sick off. Go to sleep only to wake up and do it all over again. I was trapped in that loop for 15 years. Suboxone/therapy was my push start van escape.
@@joshuawilt4918 I mean I was about the same, but it's pretty much supplemental at that point. It's a far safer and more manageable existence though by far. Then you develop pains from the abuse you've put your body through and you need it all over again. Been there! Am there! Lost 4 of my closest friends from fentanyl too so never going back there again. Only issue I have is I thought that this guy was coming off more tweakish type drugs like crack or meth, which yes most of us also have experience with.
You never actually explain the ending.
3:00
I think because a lot of it is open to interpretation. Justin and Aaron's films are very ambiguous, and often require more than one watch.
It's a summary of what the movie literally tells you.
What requires an explanation about this movie is why the creature is creating these time loops? What determines the length of the loop? Was this happening before our characters left the cult the first time? If so, why were they able to leave? Are the other characters stuck in loops all _choosing_ to stay?
An explanation of these sorts of details would be meaningful.
yeah.... i mean, there's literally a replay button so i dont want to rewrite the whole video but:
-creature loops those with issues as a metaphor for broken cycles
-it's been happening since before the cult ; hence why they formed
-the more stubborn they are, the longer they're stuck in the loop (the addicts); hence why the bros left since they resolved their issues
again, all in the video, but def open for interpretation
why did the guy who hung himself exist beside his old dead body when everyone else vanished and reset
Because he killed himself. When he shot himself it looks like that body stayed too
Saffron Sugar not only did he kill himself but the camp let the monster take them so there body seems to be in the monster after they die
@@emmalynch893 what do you think that monster was? Is it a Lovecraftian thing? God (Yahweh, Jehovah, ect)? The Devil or a Demon? A Pagan Deity? A Native American Deity (since it's in America..)?
@@wolfthornnholtzklau4913 honestly I’m not sure it could be one of those or it could be non of those. It could just be an unknown being to hard for the humans to imagine it explain
@@wolfthornnholtzklau4913 Some higher dimensional being with too much time (hue hue) on its hands.
The point is easy. One feels that he or she must watch the film again and again to find the meaning or discover something missed on previous viewings. This creates the interaction between the film and the viewer that the directors were after. A LOOP.

I see what you did there, because i see what you did there, I see what you did there, because i see what you did there, I see what you did there, because i see what you did there, I see what you did there, because i see what you did there
Clever...
Such arrogance to make a film without explaining it only to make a second film that you have to see to understand the 1st! Not me yo!
l0l
Fuck you
They were in a loop already, which is why they returned.
Totally outside of the box but in it at the same time. It's awesome you said that! SSDD
This really makes a clear reference into conformity and how easy it is to be stuck in it's bounds.
Ohohohohhh shit!
Yep. Remember how at the beginning when they stopped at their mom’s memorial site? The younger brother said “someone’s been here, this picture looks like it was just drawn” and the other brother said “no, we drew that when we were younger.”
@@Derek_Keenan yeah that's when they left the cult...10 years ago
Now we're all stuck in a loop trying to figure out the true ending.....that doesn't exist..........that doesn't exist........that doesn't exist...............
Paying really close attention to the resolution and the endless they both have strong connections to native American culture. To us it almost seems like the entity in the resolution is a Nûñnë'hï. Especially because of the power to send somebody back through a Time loop as if to warn them of events to come. Then in the endless when they are in the boat on the water pay close attention to the shadow as it deeply resembles a Thunderbird. The wave that follows around the boat when the entity leaves is like the downbeat of a giant set of wings buffeting the water and if you look at the shadow it looks exactly like the Indian drawings of the Thunderbird. I'm sorry if I'm going a little too in-depth but my wife is native American and I'm absolutely enthralled by the culture.
You got me curious about the culture myself
You'll notice if you look down by the lizards head that a fly also escapes the time loop right after the car comes through the barrier. This is not a fly, this is what the creature actually looks like when it enters into our world, it follows them wherever they go. The lizard didn't see it and hence try to eat it so maybe animals perceive it differently. The entity itself can escape if it wants too, the entity itself sent them the tape to begin with. Maybe it's always there messing with them as a fly on a wall somewhere. Though we can't be sure what the implication of the fly itself means, all I know is that it was no accident. They definitely wanted to show us that something else made it out of there and I think that a fly cannot outsmart the creature, I think more likely it is the creature.
OK guys so what happened was when they left and head on collision, the other car was them as kids and it caught fire the people from the camp Pulled them out and raised them in yhe cult and it started all over again.
No, I watched the movie and that is not what happened
I loved Coherence and definitely felt the same vibe with The Endless. It was such a good flick!
I love your videos- Keep it up!
Nice job with this video! I Love your content!
Another great video thanks! Def gonna watch this somehow
just discovered your channel, Love it 👍🏽🔥💥
Absolutely loved your explanation. Subscribing!
What’s going on with the guy in the tent with the 5 second loop? Why is his loop so much shorter than everyone else’s? He’s been there for over 100 years holy shit would that suck
I'm pretty sure that the ending was basically showing us that they had been stuck in like a 5 year loop of being losers in that city, it was not the first time that they escaped and come back to the cult, it had been happening over and over again.
but the monster lives in the woods
That doesn't really work. They mention their first time being at the cult they were young.
Yes, you are right. I feel the same way, but the two brothers are stuck in another loop of more than 5 years outside the camp. The younger one figured it out before the older one. So he played along and wanted to escape as well. So, they could open their hearts out and talk about how they loved each other in the escape. When they argue about gas empty, the older brother is upset and said "You figure it out". How could the younger one know it's always empty?
They did leave before, and they returned. But, they got stuck in the another loop. They used the old cell phones when they were in the city. So the film is telling their second return.
I felt like the movie is telling that people never really leave the cult. They just go in and out. The endless cycle.
They left, returned, and got stuck in another loop. In the trailer with flowers on the table, there is an old video recorder playing 2 times, the old brother saying "It'll just take forever". The first one is the current one, and the second one is the previous. And before that, the younger brother picked up 2 photos dropping from the sky. One is that he stared up to the sky. Another is the trailer. So, the younger one probably figured it out that they are in a loop, after he came to the trailer and met his brother. How else could the photo indicate his destination if it didn't happen before? In the end, he chose to escape with his brother so that they could finally open their hearts, talk about how they loved each other, and have their bonding moment again. And again in the next time.
Their loop is probably as long as the camp, or even longer. Their deja vu is not strong as those cycling in loop many times. But, they are about to have deja vu after they cycle 2-3 more times. That's why the younger brother knew that gas gauge always indicates empty. Both of them figure it out in the end that they are in loop, just not the camp loop.
I don't think they were stuck in a loop like the others, the others couldn't leave there own area they had like bubbles they were trapped in, they showed them on the map and the crazy guy drew them. He couldn't go get the gun on his own because he couldn't leave his bubble. But i think the point was that the brothers were stuck in there own loop in life, the younger brother was sick of having to live with his older brother in charge and always making bad decisions and the whole ending was about letting the younger brother call the shots even if he makes bad decisions. The gas tank thing showed that, he knows its empty and was just making a bad decision and the older brother was ok with it...even though there gonna run out gas.
Love your vids Arturo!
You had me at Coherence, I'm gonna watch this movie then watch your video 😂
Watch Resolution first!
His video doesn't add anything the movie doesn't flat out tell you. It's just click bait.
Coherence was really a cool movie.
Netflix added this movie and thanks for the Easter egg mention about the two friends in the cabin.
This was a really great recommendation.
Love your vids man keep it up
Ive been watching and making movies for a long time. Id like to say whoever made this movie or wrote the screenplay I'd have to say, the way I stayed in the story, the whole way through just shows how good they edited and wrote this movie. It has little to do with directing. Actors act. The story is ALWAYS what makes a great movie. Or we would watch Marvel or Dc movies everyday because most of those superhero movies are redundant.
The Twelve Monkeys explored a time-loop...
Willis survived a world-wide plague, then is sent back in time to prevent the plague, or at least bring back a 'pristine' sample of the virus.
His course of action in the past sets up conditions seen early in the film; a man shot and dying at an airport, a young boy witnessing the death just before the plague.
The man is the time-traveller, the boy is WIllis at a younger age.
The boy becomes the man, is sent back, dies, the boy sees it...infinite loop!
Sad part is that Willis, boy or man, has no knowledge of the loop!
I loved this film. Best gem to come out of my 31 days of horror 2019. I recommend it to everyone, and have seen it 3 times. I even rented their film, resolution, that ties into this one.
This movie is great! at 2:48 the wife mentioned looking for her husband Mike and that's the same guy who went to help his tweaker friend get clean.
Also at the very end when they push started their car and finally were headed towards the boundary, I expected them to crash into their mothers car when they were children and restart the whole 10yr loop again. I was really surprised when that didn't happen, I wonder if that is an alternate ending?
I was expecting the same ending and think it would have wrapped things up much cleaner.
@@TangoNevada yeah but they've making a third movie so no need to wrap it up just yet.
I have watched it a couple of times since my comment and understand why that didn't happen. Although it would have still been cool.
Basically that was just an illusion to scare the people into stopping their car. If you noticed, these blackbirds hit the portal and they fell over dead. That was an illusion caused by the entity.
The druggy guy handcuffed said DONT STOP, just get out of there. That's what they did.
It's a good theory but I heard it said the directors said no to that theory about that being their mothers cae
@@TangoNevada It was an illusion caused by the monster. The monster also showed these black birds hitting the wall and falling over dead. Cuz the monster didn't want them going through that portal and escaping.
this movie was so tight.. ty for the explanation bc i had a few theories in mind but this one seems to fit.
Wow, I never really post that much but bravo. Thanks for being smart and informed.
Here is my question: The character Benson who requested the blow job and gun seems very knowledgeable about his loop and the surrounding loops. His resets every 3 hours but when he respawns, he still has his memories. But when the tweaker and Mike respawn, they don't seem to have their memories as Mike calls out for the tweaker not to shoot him. Why don't these two retain their memories like everyone else in the film? This seemed like a flaw in the plot to me...
The two at the cabin DO have their memories. They're attempting to act out different scenarios to appease the entity. Everyone has knowledge of the loop, nobody is losing their memory. In fact, it's very likely Justin and Aaron are in a loop, doing the same, with full knowledge they are in a loop themselves. This is more hazy to demonstrate
@@Jake-uy6qwThis makes sense. Its like when you get in an argument with your partner and you watch the whole thing come crashing down around you with the same patterns of behavior but you struggle to stop it.
the explanation is good from a psychological stand point, but the issue is that the brothers are already in a loop ! Think about it they grew up there and then supposedly "left", they actually never really left - they just got in a longer loop. but their loop doesn't exist inside those bubbles that is why they were able to live normal life for a while and got a bit older. They did it already few times but not so many as the people from sect or the poor guy in tent.
Very bad take.
Hi, do you have a list of movies to watch that are Sci-fi horror movies like The Endless and movies like that...
Very awesome...
thanks for the explaination
I don't think you actually know what's going on in the movie. You don't break out of the cycle once you are in it, ever.
They could get out and they did, because they got out before the loops closed, and before since they were kids and were not aware of or couldn’t perceive the loops, they were not stuck as well.
Once you can perceive the loops and stay in long enough for when all of them close, then you can’t leave.
The wife escaped
There is a movie called Resolution that came out in 2013 which is directed by the same guys who directed the Endless movie. There is a part (in Endless) where one of the brothers (Justin) finds a house with guy handcuffed inside...that part of the movie is the plot for the movie Resolution. I haven't seen the movie Spring which they directed too, so maybe these 3 movies are tied together....
holy shit - it JUST hit me - they always knew resolution was a prequel...its called RESOLUTION - double meaning....dope.
Good analysis
You read my DM and went to go see this movie! I feel famous now!
It definitely didn't seem to me like the diety wanted anyone to escape the loop, considering that it intentionally disorients Justin and that it resets the hillbilly's loop early when he tries to cut it short with the gun. The guy with the 5 second loop certainly didn't even have an opportunity to make a change in his behavior that would set him free, and it seems that although they can change what they say and do sometimes, those in a loop are stuck on the same general path of what they do (the hillbilly has to leave for his run in the middle of talking to Justin, or Mike and the tweaker have to have the same conversation in the beginning of their loop over and over again). It definitely felt to me that it wasn't really trying to teach anyone a lesson and was simply trying to trap anyone it could (Mike's wife didn't really need to learn any lesson or make a grand change; she just got stuck).
hey i am new and i subbed to this cool channel
Great interpretation, kudos, I need to check out their other movies. Personally I enjoyed this movie a lot.
It's not lens flares you see in the first movie. It's the effect that you get at the end of a length of film. It signifies that they are in a movie and the viewer is the one deciding their fate. So these two movies, even though they are linked together through two of the characters, are not quite set in the same universe.
The question is, are they really free of the loop or are they apart of a larger loop? This theme is the about free will vs Destiny. Are we truly free to make our decisions or has everything been mapped out already? They drop a couple of hints that the brothers loop may be bigger than everyone else’s.
Great film and worth your time watching...
I've seen this movie twice. At one point it's explained the loops vary in length. From the guy in the tent who's loop in 5 seconds to the guy who has to kill himself every 3 hours? He explains he has to do it himself or the entity will do it for him and it's far worse. We see this when the guy in the tent notices he is being watched and yells, leave! He explodes.
Now the end, they're all around the posts waiting for the 3rd moon, the brothers run down, and they're gone. Each spot has a bloody mess amongst clothes like they imploded.
Conclusion, the cult are in the longest loop in the movie, 10 years, and implode at the 3rd moon and exploding into death brings them back to the beginning where they can enjoy their time because their loop is so long.
non-popular movie you should do, 'circle' on netflix (not 'the circle' the emma watson it's a different movie)
The one on a spaceship and the shitty ending?
loved this movie, reminded me a lot of what westworld as a TV show is trying to show.. that even us are on loops... very deep .
Just watched last night....and WOW!
Ty so much.
I'll take the loop thank you.
Anyone know what was hal playing on an electronic piano, the campfire scene ?
huh. Just finished watching. Like you said, I feel like it's open to interpretation. I began thinking that perhaps the thing was a group of time loops that exist within another big time loop, hence how the package was able to make it to the car. I wondered if perhaps the time loops were a implied to be a real scientific phenomena, and therefore some group of beings that can't really be seen, stumbled upon the area and began just f'ing with people because, well they're they're invisible for some reason, and have tons of cameras and film I guess too and why not. If it was rorschach test, then I believe I saw nothing, or a squid, but I keep going back to nothing. The last scene appeared to be just like an apocalyptic end, which is a form of death and would parallel with what the deathcult was doing there originally, which was escape the end of times through ascension. In the end I kinda understood that the monster or deity is also in the loop and is also dies with the end of times, only to come back and eat everyone all over again. I'm still wondering if the monsters taking pictures is the same one eating everyone. ???
Eternal loop with memory of the last one. Maybe we too are in one.
Excellent
Watched it late at night and had some crazy dreams, good movies will do that to ya’😀
God works in mysterious ways. I’m in a crossroads of my life now, I’ve always dreamt to let everything go and travel the world. I feel life my life will be like everybody else’s life, repeating the same kind of life. I’m just afraid to do it, a fear of the unknown. The story is, I looked back at old 9gag posts that I’ve saved in my phone a few days before and came on a picture about movie must watch movies recommendation and lead me to this movie. I watched it just now and go straight to this video. I guess it’s a wake up call. My fear holding me back is I’m afraid that I’ll die in my travel but now I think that’s okay, I’ve lived a good life though I had so many sad memories. Thanks for explaining this movie. Wish me luck
I love this film. Wish they did more stuff and had more support. I dig their thought provoking ideas.
WOW!!! I didn't know these guys where the actors!!!
1:02 “Jack Shepard it”, does it reflects to the series Lost, when Jack wanted to go back to the island? :D
I thought it was very familiar but i didnt remember that movies name (Resolution that is). Also a very good one :) I have probably seen almost every good movie of this kind but i found a new gem for me in Infinity Chamber. Its getting hard to find stuff for me tho,glad i found this one
It's now on Netflix so it's finally easy to see.
The end" the tanks on E its always like that idk you figure it out" i feel like they where hinting towards there really still in a loop
*The proverbial loop of working dead end jobs, being poor, and not being able to afford a full tank.*
would love it as TV show, and even commented while watching, this would make a great TV show!
Thanks, bro
My idea is that they did NOT break out of their loop. Allow me to explain. At the beginning of the movie Aaron receives a package with a tape in it. It happens to everyone in their loops as well. They all find tapes that the entity is speaking to them through. No one in the cult loop has sent this tape to them therefore it must have been the entity. In the car on the way to visit the cult Justin claims he is being tortured by Aaron singing the House of the Rising Sun over and over again. Mike also claims that he is being tortured by hearing Chris saying his greeting over and over again. I dont believe these guys ever made it out of their loop. I'm sure there's more subtle hints but tonight was my first night watching.
Sitting around a campfire every night with an endless supply of beer...count me in!
The dude in the tent was the worst. Definition of hell right there.
This is not "endless explained in 4 minuts", this is "a crazy guy says random useless comments about the movie he just watched with a small voice for 5 minuts straight"
I think the answers might also be when they talk to mystery conselor
Fun fact: the wife who couldn’t find her husband is actually the wife of Mike from the first movie (and part of the second one)
I was wondering about the mother's memoriam, where they said that the picture seemed to have held up well through the years, and it is shown again right before they exit the loop, at the end. Is the memoriam in a loop too?
I was thinking the same. When they stopped at their mom’s memorial site, the younger brother said “someone’s been here, this picture looks like it was just drawn” and the other brother said “no, we drew that when we were younger.”
good idea on a tv show!
you raise a question at the end. If you could live in a time loop or in real life with possibilities,what would you choose?. But I ask you...if you know that the loop existes, DOES IT MATTER?
The brothers didnt make it out.. you can see in the ending just as they approach the "border," you can see the shape of the next dome concave facing away from them, so when they hit they just entered another dome, most likely their own permanent loop.
Near the beginning of the film when the camera pans out and above showing them driving towards Camp Arcadia after stopping at their moms grave, the powerlines are along the driver's side. And at the end when they "make it out," the powerlines are again still on the driver's side...
Also when they stopped by their mom's grave, the photo looks brand new still because it is inside the loop, and when Justin looks left, then right, then left again the scenery has changed subletly with the addition of a large mountain peak added. And the murder of crows circling above is in the exact spot at the end as the beginning when they drove by. This means they were already inside a dome in that desert area road and did not escape.
I agree. Another thing that no one seems to mention is the birds. The birds crashing into the border, signalling their inability to cross. Yet when we see the brothers driving their car on empty, (clue) we see those birds, flying ahead of them in the distance.
I think, in a symbolic sense, they did break out of their loop, but another loop might await them in the distance. Life is basically an endless series of loops and it's tough (perhaps impossible) to never get caught in any of them. The question is only whether you'll like it or try to break out of it.
Ok, so whatever is causing the loops, it seems they have a thing for media.
They communicate through pictures, videos, music, and other recordings.
When the magician throws the ball up, it goes up above the frame of the movie, and when it comes back it drops back down as if it had been frozen in time just off frame.
The thing that was killing the cult and would've killed the brothers looked like it was a whirlwind of photographs and film reels.
I'm pretty sure this movie is saying something about it's medium, but I can't exactly put my finger on what.
Also, the younger brother I think can control whatever is going on, by the end of the movie, if not for the entire movie.
This is about independence and letting go of the past and/or old habits to do so.
One of the foundations of this is the cult, or the idea of one. Cult members most often want to relinquish control of their lives to a "higher power" who is often a false God.
Here are the biggest questions. Is this a positive deity using fear to motivate people out of their loops or a negative deity using fear to contain them in their "Endless" loops? If it is the second then are you the deity containing yourself in your loops (bad habits that you're destined to repeat).
Remember at the beginning of the movie there is a Lovecraft quote basically stating that the greatest fear is fear of the unknown. The comfort zones that we build maybe highly uncomfortable, BUT are more comfortable than stepping out of them because we don't know what's outside of those boundaries. One of the tells in this movie is those boundaries. You're reminded of them in almost every scene.
In the end, both brothers, through fear of their own loops, finally stepped through their lifelong boundaries out of those loops. The controlling (protective) brother faced his fear of his "weaker" brother not being able to handle his own life by giving up his control over him. At the same time, the controlled brother faced his fear of not being taken care by taking control away from his controlling "stronger" brother. But it could be they needed each other just at the right time to gain that consciousness. You'll notice that other couples (past, present, or future) in the movie couldn't help each other because their "timing" was off.
The overall theme may be that if the right two people connect with each other within the right timely overlap, they may have a better chance of helping each other break their loops, even though that can still take substantial time. But then time is relative (pun intended).
What did he say that the creature looked like to him? I played it back but it was still difficult to understand.
OMG what? I did NOT understand the message of the movie until you explained it to me. Was I also supposed to watch their earlier films before this one?
Answers are there throughout all 3 movies. Just been reading an article after only watching the first. It's a challenging mystery to make you think supposedly. I honestly might go watch the others, shame I literally only found this movie by chance looking through a site.

fucking love it/fear it, your concept of looking up into the sky and seeing bad cgi and knowing its real, at the same time.
Loved the movie, but there is 2 things that I don't understand.
- At the end the leader of the cult look back with a smile, meaning he is glad that the 2 brothers got out, at least it's how I understand it. But if he wanted to get them out, why not tell them everything the minute they came back ? I mean sure this whole adventure fixed the relionship between the 2 brothers but I don't think that was the goal of either the cult or the monster.
- In one of the loops we can see a guy looking at his own corpse when he hanged himself, I can't help but think this is dumb because if the corpses stayed from one time loop to another then that should be true for all loops and it's not the case. And I might add there should be thousands of corpses pilled up if that was the case.
You should do the new Netflix Cargo and also Kuso but definitely Cargo and Kuso
DMAN OF EVERYTHING cargo was great not a junior but a rent
OffAir Gaming I know I like it to
Saving you time and a headache avoid Kuso.
id go for the option for eternity, no loops needed.
great video but you did not explain the movie. where they in a loop the whole time since they were kids? Who sent the video to the brothers in the real world? What's in up with alternate space/time beyond the totem sticks? 😵 so many questions unanswered!! Thank God, for Google lol
That monster in the paper looks like The Darkness from the Cthulhu mythos.
*Yup, that's the point.*
I thought this was a very interesting movie that leaves a crowd to wonder. And to the person that posted this, I'm not going to be an ass but I think you were maybe too keen on judging, in the stead of enjoying. I thought the amount of mystery was on point, I sympathized with (some) the actors and actresses' but for me, it was certainly a change up. And as someone said in the comments, I hope these directors get more funding in the future. However, I thought they did a great fucking job!
Why do you think he didn’t take Mike back to his wife? His loop was a week? They could leave but they didn’t learn their lesson? Or is it that if you let the loop repeat you’re stuck? If that’s the case then why didn’t Justin get stuck in any of the loops that repeated while he was in one? My brain is hurting writing these questions. I just finished the movie.
Nice
id risk it for sure but i’d spend a few days in a loop just for practice lol
Ok so I haven’t seen Resolution and I guess that’s supposedly the prequel. But I loved this movie, it gives me the absolute creeps. Something about it that I can’t quite place my finger on, just makes you think a lot.
Good video.
Such an amazing movie
I loved this film. Best I watched in 2019.
There's something I don't get about this movie: Do you retain memories of your previous loops? I mean, people obviously do, but they don't seem to know they've been looped at the start of the loop?
This movie was just aaaah I loved it
I don't think it's real time loops I think it's actually computer simulations, that's why you have to die first before you get stuck there; the entity is killing off the original you, replacing you with a digital copy. For instance, a new person has to be there until the three full moons occur this could just be the upload time needed for copying a person's conciseness to the entity's 'database'
erin was so annoying. he insists that his brother controls his life and tells him how he makes him live a terrible one. just so he can have control? does bro not already have free will? did his brother not bring him back to the camp, let him stay longer, and even agree permanently? such an ungrateful bastard. half the time he was on screen i was just cringing.
Do Kung and the two strings please!
