What KNOCK AT THE CABIN Is Really About

- Knock at the Cabin asks an impossible question: Would you sacrifice someone you love to save the world?
But surprisingly, the movie becomes less about this question and more about belief. Is the choice real? In this video, I consider what the movie says about these questions and compare it to Paul Tremblay’s book which this movie is adapted from. M. Night Shyamalan made some significant changes which alter the story’s meaning.

The four can actually represent other forms of the horsemen: redmond is war due to his angry nature, adrianne represents famine due to being a cook, sabrina is pestilence since she's a nurse and Leonard is death due to him making sure the others r dead, he has a pale shirt and he's the last one to die like how death is meant to be the last horseman to appear before hell comes a calling.
I thought the same
I was thinking that too
M.Night Shyamalan's little cameo when he inserted himself in the TV advert for the chicken deep fryer was spot on. In each one of his movies, he makes a small appearance. So he's a writer, director and an actor.
He got it from Alfred Hitchcock. He always did cameos as well.
for some reason, he was perfect for that particular extra role 😹 other directors do cameos in the movies as well, like tarantino, but they often don't fit the cameo role.
M.Night Shyamalan ego to force himself in ruins the movies
This was a great movie, to be honest.
I love the fact there was no twist. It just was what it was.
I liked it for this reason too. Shymalan got shit for years always using a twist so this is diff. Meanwhile folks are clearly complaining theres no twist 🤷🏽♂️ cant please everyone!
i loved that the twist scene was checking the 4 guys documents and seeing that everything was true about them. like an anti plot twist
@@AdlejandroP An anti gay movie.
An anti gay movie.
i dont understand what people like about the movie? the story is boring
Shyamalan kind of removes the hope for me, now they live the rest of their lives knowing that a God that demands the sacrifice of people you love and has the willingness to eliminate every human being for simply not killing someone you love is real. Where is the hope in that world? They mention that this has happened before to other families, this will almost certainly happen again, and again.
The god of this world is Satan. It says as much in the Bible and every other religious text on the planet. This world is a flawed copy destined to be destroyed.
Yeah, that's what ruined the movie for me. It was well acted, interesting & beautiful but I hate the "message". What a dismal reality where a creator WANTS you to hurt people! It's so vulgar and twisted. If "God" is not about life and love and light, I have no interest in the concept at all
@@tonyabrookes9931 god isnt real, but if he is, hes bad
God is absolutely real, and we all we be held accountable for every careless word uttered or typed in a movie comment section or face to face

Wow! The book is so much better, so much more nuanced. I like the open-ended ending. It was an OK movie, but it could have been so much more impactful if M. Night didn't make any changes from the book.
Totally agree!
OUTSTANDING video!! I really enjoyed your analysis and thoughts! VERY well done!!!
It's abundantly clear in the film the dichotomy of the superior morality of all the characters acting under duress, compared to the maliciously capricious supernatural orchestrator of events.
It was a forced and false responsibility foisted upon them that wasn't actually theirs. The agency behind events can only be construed as evil.
Even worse, its an evil agency that forces people to hurt other people, rather than take what it wants, or go directly to the people it wants dead. And the unspoken? This won't be the last time. Its just until the next time.
I have never believed the common explanation for the story of Abraham and Isaac. Believers focus on explaining the sacredness of the submission to murdering your child and various. Old Testament Yaweh was a bloodthirsty god, after all. But I see it differently. In a time period where human sacrifice was accepted, even expected, where we are told children are being sacrificed in the valley of Moloch, a god who tells his worshippers to NOT sacrifice a human is the outlier. I believe this parable was meant to combat human sacrifice. It cleverly does not demonize the sacrificer, like presumably important priests who might dislike that, but it introduces an alternative, even allowing the worshippers to feel morally superior to all the primitives still practicing human sacrifice. It highlights this god to be different than others. In the original context, it might have acted like advertisement to draw people to prefer this alternative.
Worst. Critic. Ever.
Maybe to someone as small minded as you. Attempting to make sense of something that by the standards you use don’t make sense, doesn’t make any sense. You’re applying human morality to a supreme being.
They apparently tought this version of ending is more optimistic, how an idea of that the supreme being demands a blood sacrifice on a whim and will kill everyone if not satisfied optimistic? I largely prefer Tremblay's ending.
Notice how they are all medical people. Is the a Call Back to the Doctor who made a Colony out of an AA Group? They also lived in the Woods.
Just a curiosity but am I the only one who was totally hurt by the tsunami and astounded by how real it seemed so much that it almost made me cry
Have you seen The Impossible
@@TheMysteryDriver I seen it but it wasn't a pov experience... The knock at the cabin tsunami was way to realistic in my opinion
Tremblay's novel ending decided to ground itself in reality. No supernatural beings here. The movie delves the audience deep into magical thinking. Anything is possible. It's the difference between Nolan's Dark Knight and Snyder's Man of Steel. If you recall, a whole lot more people died in Snyder's Metropolis than in Nolan's Gotham. The novel's ending was far more merciful to humanity as the movie's ending puts us in reality where humans are so tiny and helpless against these omnipotent supernatural powers.
The novel just ends it on a vague note. Not definitive if it is real or not.
A thoughtful analysis; thank you
Superb film analysis of a superb Motion Picture! AAAAA+
Thank you. This movie was pretty thematically obvious.... at least I thought so walking out of the theater.... but in all the weeks of searching, you are the first person to lay out the theme with admiration for it's application. Big big thanks for that.
i loved all the characters and the actors performance's, specially the lil girl, and leonard
Well, I was going to subscribe to your channel just because of the great job you did on the breakdown of video. But wouldn't you know it... I'm already subscribed, wonder why your videos don't pop up in my feed as much as I think the should. Yes, the bell is clicked. Damn you youtube (in my dramatic movie voice)!
Best review about this movie, here on CZcams!
Thank you! 🙏
It’s about hubris. Plain and simple. The gay couple thought their lives together and happiness was more important than anything. Yes, it was shaped through their life experiences, like most of us. But they thought they were being targeted, that others didn’t matter, rather than being selfless and giving to something bigger than yourself.
Sooo much better than "Old"😂😂And I probably would have believed them easier if I had seen all that news on some OTHER tv, or even the car radio...this movie was great, and I loved the way it was filmed, how the camera sorta clenched sometimes, it was kinda brilliant
Just saw the movie and it reminded me a lot of Frailty! Awesome movies both! Many interpretations are possible.
I think I would have preferred the ambiguous ending.
My issue is that the movie still obfuscates reality: I left the theater discussing it with a friend and came to the conclusion that the movie doesn't clear up whether or not Armageddon is occurring, that these four are actually the four horsemen (even if some characters say they are). There's no way of truly knowing whether what these four say is legitimate or simply their collective delusion.
That was his purpose, to make you ponder your exact comment
@@roberthorry621 Agreed. That was part of the point to inspire thoughtful moments and conversations. Overall I felt the film did not build real suspense and didn't inspire enough thought after watching. I love the idea and may read the book at some point
Why? After the planes start falling from the skies, you still think it's fake news? I had doubts during the tsunami and epidemic seen on tv but did you see the plane crash near the cabin?
The book made more sense to me. No human would be in their right mind after going through the ordeal from the movie: getting invaded, human sacrifices, talks of world ending, emotional flashback to abuse, and above all “sacrificing” their loved one. The amount of trauma, “should’ve” moments, resentment and guilt btw wen & Andrew (bc where’s that dialogue of “sorry hun you’re one daddy short”), and the loneliness of you have literally no one to tell this to.. he might as well be in living hell
Cool vid
Been seening tailers for this movie but it didn't intrigue me enough to watch it
The twist is that its not a movie.. its showing us whats gonna happen in real life.... dun dunn dunnnn 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫
I had a strange theory the film was about The Trinity (understood as the Triune God of Christianity) and how it self sacrificed in order to save even those whose hated love itself. I might be crazy, but there is some dialogue in the film to support this towards the end when Andrew is telling Eric people don’t deserve anything because they destroy everything, to me it sounds like an inner monologue that God would have in eternity when God decided to intervene by sacrificing one of himself , the son, the second member of The Trinity. The sacrifice had a real cost that altered the course of destiny and history for all eternity. Many interpretations possible! Loved this movie, works in so many levels.
there's a reason the anger issues of andrew were given a side story, and even more so when there was a connection between him and redmond. both premises were not really helpful for the plot of the movie if you think about it - andrew's hate towards others was unnecesasry to push a conflict between him and eric in making the choice; it's a natural occurrence that two persons would tend to disagree on a choice to make sure they are making the right decision. yet somehow these premises were given an ample amount of focus. and i would love to know why. it might help answer the question of whether there was really an impending apocalypse
or is Redmon secretly gay and resentful of an ex boyfriend with a child?
Or you are just thinking about it too much 😂it's a movie with a plot
Yes, I'm sure 700 planes magically fell from the sky at once because Redmond was a homophobe...😉
@@douglasharbert3340 this movie is anti gay. Wake up
Great work! The most thought provoking movie of the year!
Absolutely.
How? What's so thought-provoking about this?
The premise of faith,sacrifice, and love have been done so much better in other movies.
@@ytkdns absolutely agree with you. The movie, even though visually great, doesn't have a solid storyline and the ending leaves you in a state of not being able to grasp what the story was actually about. Unfortunately, not his best work.
@@DeannaL420 name other movies that have tied sacrifice , faith etc better?
There is a foreshadowing the minute the little girl is playing with the grasshoppers. There are different "home invaders " tied to the attributes of the 4 horseman of the apocalypse. Each one is a real human with real problems like you and I. The dilemma of the dads are palpable.
Lastly, was this preplanned , a cult , or was it really the sovereign choice of the two parents that possibly made detrimental choices for man kind?? Thought provoking for me. If you didn't like it , cool..I am not in highschool debate club.
Analysis level :: perfect !
Thank you! 🙏
Great video!
I think the movie ending is much more acceptable/marketable to the general public than the book ending.
The concept and foundation was good, execution by director was a 5/10 for me.
Sounds right to me 😆
Don't know if you said, but their 4 shirt colours are the four colours of the horses in the book of revelation.
I'm here because I am one of those people who watch everything about the film they just watched and enjoyed.
👍👍👍👍👍 as always!
Thank you! 🙏
What is it really about?
"Wen has two daddies."
The social engineers in Hollyweird enlisted M Night Shyamalan this time to direct a thrilling cinematic celebration of gay marriage.
In this story, two queer men show the hetero normative class once and for all that they are as good as them, maybe even better.
And what is the surprise twist ending to the film that Shyamalan is known for?
Perhaps it's that those who cannot reproduce in order to perpetuate the species will at least rescue it for those who can with an act of super moral bravery and courageous self sacrifice.
The only point I see is, all of the world events could have happened or not happened, whether any of these characters ended up doing anything, including prior to this, then connecting together.
Also, haven't people already started dying so then it doesn't matter if anyone sacrifices themselves.
I think there is another explanation that most of us don't know, maybe psychological, that these are attacking emotions, but who is having them...?
Was someone else's mind "split"...?
But I think only a certain eye sees the real message here, whether this was the intended interpretation of the book or Hollywood micromanaging.
I love watching NPCs in the art world (writers are no exception) succumb to TDS. It pays the bills.
not bad for an M. Night Shyamalan movie. I walked away prouder he didn't do some stupidity than over the movie itself. I enjoyed it.
Did you read the book? M Night butchered it. His movie goes against the theme of the book and was so much worse than the book. I actually like about half his movies but this one ticked me off.
@@MadisonEstes I agree. I lasted about 20 minutes and I had to turn it off. I didn't care about a single one of the characters or if there was a twist or what each person represented. It was just boring.
@@bebophippie1781 I turned it also off after 20 minutes but that was because unexpectedly i found myself in the middle of a gay interest movie.
Great review as usual
... as soon as they said they meet online I thought of those conspiracy Qanon lunatics ..
Yes! The twist for me was how many people can be convinced of a divine purpose, and would rather die for the feeling of meaning than live with consequences of their actions.
Movie about sacrifices at the altar, sound like what the Aztec would do to please their gods. More heinous, they were given a choice which of their love ones would die and which would live with the guilt. The Aztec were more kinder.
But it's not just faith of one family, if we believe divine intervention four people were driven mad, forced to abandoned people they loved ones and brutaly murder each other for sake of saving humanity.
Who is that @15:03 - 15:05 not even my voice recognition could understand what his name was … obviously I’ve never seen that movie or tv series

Ethan Tremblay wrote this??
I agreed w Trem after seeing the movie. I was like, welp this God seems like a horrific individual
And i thought It was a reboot or spin off the cabin in the woods.
so bad for me, who thought ending will be like some Lovecraftian cosmic horror or something twisted conspiracy like consequences.
I did keep accidentally calling this movie “cabin in the woods” haha
Are there spoilers in this video?
Yes - I give a warning before spoiling the ending but if you want to watch this movie, would recommend doing that first
The idea of killing a family member as a sacrifice, is very disturbing imo.
I think the book ending makes more sense.
It’s about the Book Of Revelation the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse and the coming mass depopulation of earth
I love the crackhead energy in this film.
The colors they wear signify each horseman’s color
Yeah, you know the four horsemen in the Bible… Malice, Nurturing, Healing, and Guidance. How tf are 3 of the 4 horseman gonna embody positive traits. I swear I HATE Shyamalan
Not even close
Batman: correct. The elite are saying that if we don’t kill our way of life, ( they ) will destroy the world. Sick
It's always so funny watching people try and run from the inevitable!
Like that's gonna help ?
Just turn around and face it ! It will be better and quicker and less painful .
Like running from that wave? Yeh sure you gonna outrun that? 🤣
Not with that attitude.
#DaveBautista TOP ACTOR!!✌🏽👑🔥🇵🇭🇬🇷🇺🇸
You said the best word here, angry ancient gods that only satisfy their angryness with blood. This is what I understood since I've been studying biblical sciences, mythology all over the Old Testament, and the new too. A world divided thanks to all these religions that separate us. When you start seeing the parallels of the Bible stories with the sumerian, Canaan, Persian, Babylonian, Greek, Roman myths of my, we don't have any idea how God the true one is.
And we have each time a disaster happens religious people saying is doomsday and that the prophecies and so on. And this world should be called mythology world, cause this happened in ancient times, each phenomenon or disaster explained creating gods. Here an ex-pentecostal and Hebrew roots talking. Open your eyes folks.
the movie is pretty black-and-white in the end. they actually stopped the apocalypse. there is nothing whatsoever in the movie that remotely suggests that the apocalypse wasn't ending or that it would continue, or that the apocalypse wasn't real. they actually stopped it.
It's about the power of love😅
It's about an improv class that took some bad acid
I'm going to read the book, but I can say for a fact I didn't like the movie. There wasn't enough details to make it suspenseful for me, as I was able to read the whole movie within the first 20 minutes. Maybe he could have added the bits and pieces of the visions, left the TV on the news station so we could see disasters in real time or something to put pressure on the family.
I mean people want a definite answer. The Bible is based on faith I think the horsemen are asking the family to have faith.I think the whole movie is purposely ambiguous to question and test faith.
The bit of homophobia brought up made me think there would be a preachy ending or twist. Glad there wasn't, although if their decision was too late, i would've found funny. Not a bad movie at all, loved the Cannon beach shout out.
I thought the flashbacks and showing Andrews anger often was to show some struggles and anger them being gay caused … therefore making the choosing of the sacrifice easy since they’re already suspicious they’ve been targeted throughout their whole relationship, so why not now just remove the weight from their shoulders
It's about Toonami's 🤣🤣
👌
M. Night Shyamalan is my favorite movie director and producer, I absolutely adore him and will watch anything this man makes. All 100% of his movies and series are in my favorites list. So it pains me to say that the execution of this movie wasn't strong enough and this definitely is not his best work. I was very excited to watch this movie, but was a little disappointed, wasn't convinced with the plot, the ending was ambiguous and I was left with so many questions. And it has nothing to do with expecting a crazy twist in the end or anything. I love Split and Unbreakable which have almost no twists, but rather a different perspectives on the familiar stories, so it's not about the thrill or expectations. I just feel the story could have been exploited better. For example - whatever the 4 horseman represent - they are still humans, they were not some divine beings sent from above. So, let's say a person start seeing all this crazy visions - wouldn't psychiatrist be the first choice? Or at least therapist? Wouldn't they be put on medication instead of searching on internet for someone with similar visions? I understand they saw each other in the visions too, but how did they know they are real? Maybe other people were also hallucinations? Ok, now, let's say they found each other and convinced each other of the visions - why would they willingly sacrifice themselves? It's not like they served in the church their entire lives and learning about divine and biblical stories and God etc.. it's not like they were preparing they entire lives to sacrifice themselves. How can they just go and do it? Leave their kids behind? Can you imagine yourself in that position? Wouldn't you rather convince yourself that you are crazy and take a pill? Also, if they came in peace, why were they carrying weapons? They could have leave it outside and come inside to talk first. If Eric was all love and no anger - why wouldn't he stay instead of Andrew? Wouldn't it be better for the girl? Also, how are they going to leave knowing that if all this was true, their slow decisions have killed millions of people? Andrew was traumatized for years because of the fight in the bar, so what happens now then? Will he go straight to the mental hospital? And what is the movie actually about? Faith? Or punishment? Or sacrifice? Or family? Or love? Or rapture? Or belief system? I don't know...
I think part of the issue is that Shyamalan's sensibilities don't match with Paul Tremblay's story. But, he ends up leaving most of the story in tact, only changing the ending which gives the movie a bit of thematic identity crisis (like so many of the issues/questions you mention here).
@@OneTakeVids Good points. I think the original ending (have not read it for myself yet) plays well in print but not so much on film. Ultimately I feel M Night did a good job visually and the acting was outstanding in places. There were some moments that stuck with me I may watch it again for those
I’ve never heard tsunami pronounced like the Cartoon Network on purpose.
I doubt I will watch this. In the real world, I don’t go to my land in the woods without packing heat. All my neighbors out there have shooting ranges on their land. Some people show up at my place, they are getting shot real fast and that would be the end of the movie. There’s two guys in this and one looks like he was some sort of fighter. Uh, you take the people out with no hesitation. This must be California. This wouldn’t fly in Texas or Florida.
the word four horsemen was said in the movie was in the bible revelation
Didn’t rush to see it because I figured it’d be boring or massive let down like most of his movies. Finally saw it. Not a huge let down but as boring as I thought it’d be
Why do the 'horsemen' kill themselves?
And like this movie it shows that conspiracy theories are based on some sort of truth!!! Although I know a lot of people did not watch this movie just because of the fact there was a homosexual couple, I enjoyed the movie! It was better than some of his previous work!
tell to those people that the movie is anti gay couples!
Being thumbs up # 666, I feel like it means something🤣🤣🤣
This analysis is more worth the time spent than the movie itself. Watched it only due to the name of the director. I guess I won’t trust it next time
Is there hope for the rest of humanity? The family ultimately decides. Although in Revelation the decision is by God after two witnesses preach and 144,000 followers have assembled based on their shared visions.
Disappointed in the type of terminally-online bigoted audience you seem to attract, judging by this insane comment section. Can’t even enjoy a real discussion on the film’s themes because the fact gay people exist is too much for some people. I usually love your videos.
why am I never first?!??!
“Old” was wack af so I don’t trust no more shamalamalamaredpajama movies

I thought the film was just pushing male homosexual Christianity as the most powerful form of love. Weird.
Tremlays version all the way.
This version was a joke. Totally massacred the message of the book. I've never been so disappointed in a book to movie adaptation in my life.
The Annihilation movie was a travesty that barely resembled the book.
I mean if there is a clear message, if it's just simple and not a twist, it cannot be both, if just a narrative,
Then this movie is saying that these people or people, who may have crazy ideas, should follow their plans through, because in the end, everyone feels good about everything they did, whether their actions mattered, or not.
So I guess, spread your craziness and it doesn't matter, if you kill yourself, because others won't, then it is their fault.
This just seems like a lazy director thinking he's creative and ignorantly being an, a h, and an author confused by his own beliefs about even his completed work.
Really, what a feeling of nihilism.
Maybe it is the author's journey, to just being able to stop trying to figure out the world, and being able to say f it, because whether it makes a difference, it ends up driving you crazy.
I guess I think maybe this is, whether the author knows it or not, the story of the psychological assault on his mind.
I would easily understand this.😊
Movies was entertaining
is it really an all loving omnibenevolent god if this god is willing to commit genocide again?
Nope. It's all about the grasshoppers - the world this story is set inside is the glass jar and the people are the grasshoppers.
All "Other gods" are cruel because they are Evil and want to be like the One and Only God, Who required His Own Son to shed HIS Blood for Forgiveness of Sin.
HOW do these Other gods" imitate the One True God?
They also require "Blood Sacrifices" but from OTHER living things including people !
Why why do screenwriters mess up good books. Kubrick ruined the shining turning it into something unrecognizable
I can't imagine buying into the conspiracy. Even if it seemed the will of their God, I would have to assume I was having a psychotic break. I would not decide to agree to sacrifice.
This movie is very dangerous, especially for homosexuals. The film leaves no doubt that homoparental families are dangerous for society and represent its decline and end. In turn and subliminally, he says that being homosexual is unhealthy and deviant. There are several scenes in the film that say this in a very hidden way. The entire succession of events and speeches in the film is completely against homosexual couples and the adoption of children. The latter being the main objective of the film to criticize. A well-made film, pleasing to the most conservative point of view and for the most inattentive, it is an inclusive film. Inclusive because it gave work to two homosexual actors but ultimately it was done to humiliate and do little for the inclusion and respect for the dignity of homosexual people and their family constitutions. This movie don´t have any plot twist because the only plot twist is the entire movie. The plot twist is that this movie is homophobic and anti gay, without being so obvious. But what remains in the viewer's subconscious? What remains is that these types of families must be frowned upon, persecuted and that they are an attack on the safety, well-being and progression of society as a whole. They therefore represent a danger that must be eliminated. But in the film they were intelligent. The rule was: only one of the couple could die and it had to die by the choice of one of the couple. None of the heterosexuals in the film physically killed the couple. The death here was symbolic and it was as if they had been killed or made to kill them. If there was a film about homosexuals doing things like this to heterosexuals, the film would immediately be despised and seen as made by mentally ill people who are an attack on morality, against God and against the normality of society. This Shyamalan film is simply a parody of the rights and achievements of homosexuals and is represented as being the sign of the end of times. This shit is revolutionary for the conservative people. Well done!
Yeah unfortunately the film adaptation seems to validate that “you should have listened to the conspiracy theorists” which is a terrifying endorsement in the trump and post-trump authoritarian resurgence
Your terminal case of TDS is noted ..😉
Cringe.
I'm honestly surprised that no one sees the parallels between this and the conversation surrounding climate change. Like, I get there's religious overtones and symbolism, but it being a global warming allegory is just so blatant.
I pledged a long time ago to never again get bamboozled and sucked in by anything Midnight Shamalamadingdong wrote produced or directed.
All his movies seem as if a group of 1st yr film students got together and each wrote a different part of a story, but no one was allowed to read what the others wrote.
Then all the parts were given to a different person and they were told to make a movie out of alll the parts, but they weren't allowed to make any changes.
Will I be watching this?
Short answer: NO.
Long answer: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Damn I was expecting a twist ending to this comment, after the long rant "Will I be watching this? YES"
@@OneTakeVids LOL
The author is clearly on the left spectrum as politics goes. However, the 2nd amendment kinda saves the couple lol
You'd be surprised, then, to know just how many people on the left are adamantly pro-2nd amendment. The reason it's not so obvious is because they merely own guns as opposed to making them their entire identity.
Andrew kinda dumb, since there is also other gay people, that'd he would be condemning.
On top of the children, and people that aren't like Redman.
Why would two gay men hold the world's fate in their hands

@@Stable_Genius Bro, we've all been raised with epic battles of good vs. evil. You're old enough to remember. Even if you never had a father to teach you, somehow, you've read a thing or to about the subject. The sweet thing at the end of each story, is not who won, but the one who won was the right one. The side that would make you feel that justice is served and the rest of the time will be ruled upon the principles, rules and morals of the one who came up victorious. Now, do you remember which side always won? You may be damaged inside by the lack of a real family, looking other kids having fun with their fathers and found the occult attractive, but tell me anon, if this was the only time in your life that you had to be sincere with yourself, despite all the deth in your soul, do you really believe that you win in the end?

The little Asian actress stole the movie
Shyamalan is Hitchcock on steroids
Hey I hate to bash you a bit here but I actually think you may have missed the movie versions idea or premise. Ironically, I think it’s because your so sure your right, which is what this whole (movie version) story tips on. You gave examples of what you call facts at 2:25. “Is the climate warming too fast?” Both sides of that argument could give “facts” to prove they are the correct side, but obviously from the pic you inserted, you have already decided which you believe to call “facts”. I’m fairly certain you would elude to the other side as lies or misinformation. “Is COVID killing us”? Well COVID killed some for sure, but clearly most people who caught COVID survived, so is that statement fact or not? You could of qualify it and make it closer to true, like adding “…some of us”, but you don’t, I think because of your arrogance of thinking you know and your right. You said the 4 strangers feel like they do not have a choice. The leader Len clearly admits in a conversation on that exact topic in the movie that he made a choice to be there. It’s a story for the audience to think about what they believe and what would it take for you to change what you believe when the stakes are so high, among other things. Yet you seem to think you know exactly what the answers are. You literally could be a character in this movie. Kind of ironic don’t you think?
Was just thinking the same thing.
It's about family... .. doing child sacrifice. And ppl who want ppl to see it as necessary...for what they want ppl to accept an evil...as it being something good.
What a waste of time. How he keeps getting people to give him money to make movies is the real puzzle here.
The WORLD doesn't end, Humanity ends. Nature (the world) is going to be fine 😉
They didn't save anything lol
I thought they picked their family because they were the definition of the corruption of what a family is since they were a gay couple with an adopted little girl and that made sense to me until Batista said that God chose them because they were the perfect family and then I was really confused because they we're a distortion of what a family supposed to be so I figured the god they were talking about was really the devil all along and that was the twist
The problem is Shyamalan. He is insane. He shouldn't have pushed his religious belief onto a good story. He really thinks where God asks a couple to kill each other a "hopeful" ending? That's a horrifying ending. Who knows what this monster may ask for next? I like the book better. It is thematically sound and consistent.
The movie is anti gay couples. That´s simple. Shocking but is what it is...
Jewish Space Lasers.
This movie is unrealistic and stupid, all the proofs they gave to the family, and they still don't believe them.
The "proofs" sound like every day life. If you highlight them, it feels significant. This is how hucksters operate. But the truth is that bad events are just normal. People who want to believe Something Special is making bad events happen are reacting out of fear, trying to mentally control the fundamentally uncontrollable with a fake explanation. Our brains will always prefer an explanation, even if its wrong. Thats how the cults and scams get you.
Agreed @krishadyn5211
