You’re such a comfort creator for me. I don’t watch half of these movies but I could watch your reviews over and over.
Same!
Too accurate lol
Literally this omg
same!! and we have such different taste too
I haven’t watched a horror movie in years I still watch her and spooky astronauts lol
last scene was crazy! Sydney Sweeney is scream queen GOLD
I usually feel like she falls flat acting wise but I actually believed here in this one 😅
@@AriannaGisame! I think she’s definitely improving as an actress.
sorry but you can’t be giving out scream queen titles after starring in ONE horror film.
@@TheMovieJunkiezEspecially when she wasn't even that good in the movie 😂
I liked this movie.
One guy said it was stupid and a waste of money. I thought the same as you about jump scares..
The ending saved it for me. It was average till the last five minutes. My jaw was on the floor and Sydney really acted her ass off.
Interesting.
I liked it until the 3rd act haha.
@@travisspazz1624 The film was PERFECT up until the end of the 'you will never leave' scene (excluding the horrible CGI). It was SUBTLE and beautifully shot horror. The subtlety I think was what made it so masterful. After that point it becomes generic and a bit of a bore to watch.
I hated it. Sydney is such a bad actress
@@user-nk5pv5np3v It was good enough at the beginning when all you needed was a pretty face to keep you interested in the movie. Beautiful girl, beautiful set design, beautiful cinematography. But once it got to the after the ‘you will never leave’ scene / the moment the film actually relied on sweeny’s acting then yes, it was horrible. As well as the other actors in the film. The pope was alright tbf. Scary old man.
So true, that final scene with Syndey screaming gave me CHILLS and made the movie for me. Also feel like movies with this type of horror are also so much more scarier for women because it's like something that is somewhat real - forced labor and pregnancy in general
EXACTLY!
Somewhat real? Try abortion bans - welcome to the US.
Well, yes. I suppose that we are forced to go through labor when giving birth to a child. But the reward is worth what little suffering women go through when bringing life into the world.
But forced pregnancy? We aren't living in, nor have we ever lived in, a script from handmaid's tale. Forced pregnancies are a ficticious jedi mind trick that only works when debating pro-choice and any perks pro choice claims to have for women.
Ok. The movie was bad
Seriously, and then you're the bad one even though you never asked for such a thing
The baby didn’t cry… it was just gibbering and giggling to itself… it was probably a demon…. Glad she smooshed it…
Yea I don’t think it was deformed at all. It was demonic and that’s why she killed it. She kept saying this was anti God’s will
I thought it was just breathing oddly and possibly deformed, seeing as how it was "supposedly" made with dna from a couple thousand years ago. But, I think she may have killed it regardless if it was healthy or not.
I think it was just deformed bc all the other babies in the jars were
I thought this too... There were several hints to it being demonic
I thought it was just breathing like a pug bc it was deformed
SPOILERS but wow I had a very different interpretation of what happened haha. I took the tooth falling out and her saying something along the lines of “this isn’t gods will” when the nail was peeling off to be signs that it was actually demonic. since what they’re doing would be sacrilege. and then I assumed it was like a satan baby and that’s why she killed it
you know to be honest your interpretation is probably what they intended the story to be haha I just took it all so literally and didn’t think there was anything demonic going on 🤣
I guess that’s a cool aspect of the movie that it can be up to interpretation bc tooth loss can be experienced during pregnancy as well as splitting/peeling nails! But I can see that being a sign of demonic activity too. I also got that impression that the baby was demonic bc I felt like I heard a deep voice…? I wasn’t a big fan of this movie but I did like that it was left ambiguous
@@so53190 yeah I thought it was making kinda evil grumblings once it was born lol. I didn’t love the movie either but I didn’t know that about the nails and everything so I agree that is kinda interesting how they did it!
Same! The last scene gave strong Rosemary's Baby vibes.
That’s exactly what I thought which is why I knew she was going to kill it at the end, I thought it was the Antichrist more than Jesus reborn
the jumpscare thing is so real there was no need and it just pissed me off honestly
Why does everyone hate jump scares so much? Seriously I feel like it’s just trendy to hate jump scares. They can be fun, especially if they’re done right. As long as the movie doesn’t rely on them, I don’t see what the big deal is
@@jonahjames8915 no i totally agree but imo they weren’t fun in the movie they were just pointless and the majority of them were fake outs
The ending felt like more of a social commentary on bodily autonomy. Cecilia did not consent to having a baby in the first place, so she terminated it. If Cecilia kills the baby because of a deformity, the subtext is less impactful. Bodily autonomy is empowering. Eugenics not so much.
I'm not a mom and have no plans to be, but i also cried during the labor scene - so, so, so good.
😮
Not a mom also, but I'm so impress at women that goes through labor, etc I would be traumatized by this film!
Well I'm a dad three times over holding my wife's hand all three deliveries and movies are hilarious.
I think a lot of people put sydney sweeney as just a pretty face without giving her a chance, and im so glad they're getting to see how phenomenal she is! Been a fan of hers for about 5 or 6 years and im glad shes getting the recognition she deserves 👏
All of this!! Hopefully she will start being taken more seriously.
I haven’t seen too many things she has been in but she was amazing in Reality. She was good in White Lotus too but I hated her character 😂 which I realize she wasnt supposed to be likeable.
No I think she's sooooo talented. Those people obviously haven't seen any of her work.
I first saw her as a kid giving a phenomenal performance in HBO’s _Sharp Objects._
0 out of 5 stars for me. Nothing entertaining or redeeming out of this one.
[Spoiler Alert] I think from the get-go she really doesn't like the baby and there's this scene where she told the priest that this isn't right. If you look at the ending, i think she didn't even looked at the baby until when she's about to crash it. My take was she is not feeling sad about the baby, rather angry and the last scene was an emotional catharsis for her letting go of the injustice and anger she felt
Totally agree. I actually gasped when she went to the rock. I think the movie has some really radical feminist politics that ppl are overlooking. The ending is so chilling because it’s ambiguous whether the child is the 2nd coming or the anti-Christ. The way it pants seems so creepy and animal like, but at the same time Jesus was known not to cry at his birth. Realistically would Jesus not be panting like that after being born if he wasn’t crying? The baby seems to be red (like a devil) but that could also just be blood or something. Either way we can be pretty sure that she couldnt be 100% on what the baby was which makes her decision a really radical display of self-determination imo (not necessarily in a good way)
I mean, given what she went through, why would she want the baby? She never wanted a baby, she has no idea what is wrong with that baby. Now no one can take her baby, the baby isn't in pain, and she can leave
I did not hate this movie, but it was underwhelming. I thought it would be more crazy, but it was quite tame. The story is pretty straightforward. The cast is all good especially what Sydney Sweeney put herself through. Good producer and actor.
It was boring
Agree, I was so underwhelmed. Story was very meh to me.
The first time I saw Sidney in anything was when she played Eden in Handmaids Tale so her playing a nun for me wasn't a big leap.
I didn’t care for the movie BUT Sweeney’s acting was amazing! That last scene omg
Agreed - I finished it like I want Sweeney in a better horror movie cuz she def has it.
I think people forget Sweeney played a “nun-like” role in handmaid’s tale and killed it. Recent years she’s been in excessively sexual roles in my opinion. Maybe this will change that a bit for her career.
Ever since the bathroom scene in Euphoria I have been waiting for Sydney Sweeney to become a scream queen and she IS delivering (pun intended)
i was absolutely obsessed with this movie
Same. I literally got up with my mouth agape 😮 and the theatre attendant was like "have a good night". Like girl I'm about to think about that head smashing scene for days
@@Natg6 ME WHEN IT ENDED
Wow, I'm totally down for this. I know I knock "mom horror", but when it's THIS visceral, I'm absolutely here for it.
FINALLY a woman reviewing this yessssss🙌🙌 the boys just don’t seem to get this one
There's far too many women reviewing films , everything made by a woman is amazing (obviously not)
Regardless of that, this film was alright, nothing special, and
Certainly nothing original or scary in it
@@ryansweeney1661 loll butthurt much 😂
@@siobhan98
Butt hurt , no that is your gay friends I'm afraid
Yeah believe it or not lots more men think the way I do ,
Just many to afraid to say it
But I will , you'd love my butt to hurt wouldn't you, being a nice little gay boy for you to push around
Have a nice weekend, no need to waste more time on men like me
@@ryansweeney1661 hahahhahahahha this made my day thank you 😂
@@ryansweeney1661 im going to refrain from roasting you on the grammar in the 3rd stanza of your little poem here because ryan im genuinely so curious about how you got all that from just my CZcams profile 😂 also most men don’t think like what? (Genuinely asking)
Don't forget the Father gets a call on his mobile when in the car, but yes I like that it has an overall 'timeless' quality to it!
And god that final scene was insane and intense 😱
ah you’re right!
Yeah like honestly up until that point in the movie I had no idea when it was set
What's kind of cool and disturbing about that one cell phone moment is that it adds to the isolation the WOMEN specifically face at the convent.
The priest being the one who is seen with a cell phone, while everyone else feels almost like they're in a technology-free world furthers the theme of the women being removed of their rights, stripped from access to the world.
@@PossessedbyHorror And Sydney's luggage was definitely not modern!
I had no idea the final scene was the first take-it was amazing
I loved this movie, and wouldn’t have seen it if you haven’t mentioned in on Insta.
Looking forward to the next video! Hopefully more review weeks too ❤
I don't usually watch horror movies but i always watch your videos. I love when you do spoilers because you do such a good job at explaining everything that i feel like i watch them through you! 💞
Wish the movie went for it as far as not leaving many plot points out. If you're gonna show the infanticide then show how the fertilization worked, the "red nuns" and their purpose, sister Isabell, whether this baby was demonic/healthy etc. I was left with a lot of questions.
Correct. Story is simply undeveloped, many plot holes and ridiculous premise to start with.
Thats why I came to see anything on youtube about it - because I was so confused with some parts of the movie.
This movie was a mess. That pivot from supernatural to scifi made no sense. I never saw her feeling conflicted between her faith and being used as a carrier for Clone Jesus. She became a nun, that takes a lot of commitment.
The ending scene would've been amazing in another movie. In Immaculate; it's just silly.
I feel like the insemination, the baby, or Isabelle didnt need to be over explained. IVF exists, theres so many ways to create pregnancy that doesnt require sex. I feel like the baby being demonic vs malformed is purposefully meant to be interpreted by the viewer. Isabelle wanted to be the person who would get pregnant. Insemination doesnt mean itll stick. Im sure they tried on almost all of the nuns, the older nun who called her Saint Cecilia had the crosses on her feet. Implying that she was a potential surrogate who got pregnant and tried to escape. The pregnancy probably failed. Isabelle was just on board and wanted it to be her.
The red nuns were completely unnecessary tho
@@orlandogodoy3233i dont feel like she was ever conflicted. If anything the movie showed that shes more dedicated than the others. She frequently had to reiterate that she was sure she wanted to be a nun and then its revealed shes not running from anything. Her convent just shut down. She states that her reason for becoming a nun was that she literally was dead when she was 13 in an accident.
Excited for Longlegs and Cuckoo 🔥
I was really excited to hear your thoughts on Immaculate! I literally went into this movie completely blind. Didn't see a trailer, didn't read what it was about, didn't look up a poster, not even knowing what genre it was. I only went to it because my dad wanted to see it so I just went along with it. Let's just say, it definitely messed me and my brother up so bad because we were so shocked after what we just saw 😂
I was waiting for this review all week! I loved this movie the ending was incredible and disturbing when the movie ended in the theater I was just so greatful it was still light out 😂 but I love how excited you were for the spoilers and I’m so happy it was for more than half the video!
I was admittedly nervous about you seeing this because of the last few scenes, specifically, because it goes to those incredibly dark places.
And I agree the ending is what made it so good rather than just a serviceable horror film. Sydney acted her heart out. Great work from her.
I needed a review of a mother watching this so thank you
I really loved this movie! The last like 15 minutes were crazy but so good. Wasn’t expecting that level of gore either but it worked so well.
As someone with religious trauma, the part when her water breaks and she stops, looks down, and says god d*mn it then runs off to continue her chaos spree was so funny to me. 😂
I was so curious about this one, but I'm also a mom so I always wait to hear your takes on new horror movies! I definitely can't handle situations a lot of things the way I could before. This is going to be a Skip for me.
Thank you for doing the spoiler section, I cant watch jumpscare movies due to my CPTSD, but i really wanted to know the ending. Much appreciated.
I saw this movie this week and was waiting to hear your thoughts on it! 😇
THE FIRST OMEN REVIEW WHENNN!?!??? ❤
i LOVED this movie! I saw it and i was one of the only people in the entire theater! i was terrified!
It reminded me so much of the original Suspiria! Fun fact: During the montage scene of life at the convent, they borrow the theme from a giallo film called The Red Queen Kills Seven Times!!
I saw Sting early due to AMC Scream Unseen, and oh my god was it bad. It wasn’t scary, everything felt bland and generic, and it just wasn’t entertaining.
But I really enjoyed both Immaculate and Late Night With the Devil, neither are perfect, but both were very well executed, and were engaging stories. Both could have stepped on the brakes and been a little more slow burn, but they both did a great job of not fully giving the game away until the climax.
i loved the parallels between this movie and real life, the struggle and fight women have to face to have control over their own bodies is true horror
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
@@robkatzberg38why is that funny?
Yeah, you don't even need it to be supernatural
I don't know if it's just me, but recently I haven't been getting notifications for your new uploads, even though I'm subscribed with the bell. The videos don't even show up in my feed. Good thing I follow you on Instagram, otherwise I wouldn't have known that you've posted this.
I was by myself in the cinema when I saw it which made the experience even better for me ❤ Sydney's acting was amazing. It was a solid 4 stars for me
I loved this movie so much and will def purchase it when it comes out to add to my horror movie collection ✨
*spolier* I was disappointed they didn’t go anywhere with the red nuns or anything. Same with the beginning, but I guess that’s to show that place was bad?
I think it was to underline it was a kind of cult more than anything
@@PossessedbyHorrorI can see that, makes more sense!
Im gonna skip the spoiler part, since I didnt watch it yet.
Thanks for the recomendation.
I can't wait for this movie to release on streaming, I'm Autistic and can't watch horror films in the cinema as Jumpscares are too overstimulating for me on such loud speakers, but I've been anticipating this movie for ages and am so excited to finally watch it. Thankyou for the review!
Just saw it, and I really liked it. Also liked your review :)
Period wise, we did see a cell phone actually, but I didn't pick up what model it was.
I think the reason this movie is so popular is because not only is it a fantastic homage to Italian horror but it really leans into all the crazy Rosemary's Baby vibes as well.
What disturbed me most was that there was even equipment inside the convent whereby you could watch the development of the fetus on the screen. Presumably there was need to use it on the nuns fairly often.
As for the ending, I won't say it was really that surprising. Sydney was faced with Rosemary's choice at the end of Polanski's film. It could only end either one way or the other. In any case, the ending was left unambiguous since we didn't see what happened. Maybe she changed her mind at the last moment and missed, and that left open the possibility of a sequel.
Awesome review.
8/10 beautiful setting that's how you write a girl boss. Once she started walking on her feet it was wicked.
I have a growing issue when reviewers who have been reviewing and researching horror movies for years and years rate a movie predictable but for the majority of people it's not. So if you say it's not good because it's predictable I think that's a little biased.
I’d love to see you talk about the books behind you relating to death
I've been looking forward to seeing this & happy to hear it's worthwhile. I really do like Sydney Sweeny. She's been good in everything I've seen her in. And she's quite versatile bc she's done well no matter what the genre.
I just saw and loved immaculate! I actually was mid about it until the end, and then I realized why it has so much hype. That was a crazy unexpected ending. I’d also like to warn you that The First Omen is similar to immaculate but has particularly traumatizing birth scenes, one in particular was a lot more severe/body horror heavy. I think that was the scariest scene in the whole movie actually. Just a warning if you’re planning on seeing that film, it’s very very similar to this one though
Yes, if Immaculate was borderline too far, she’ll need to be prepared for the insanity of The First Omen. Personally, I loved it because it focused so much on tension building and the feeling of not knowing what’s real or not, plus the way it was shot added to the unsettling atmosphere so much. It really hits those triggers of forced pregnancy and powerlessness though.
I saw them on the same day and I honestly enjoyed immaculate way more then late night with the devil, and not just bc of the AI issue (though that takes LNWtD's rewatchibility down for me).
I really wanna see Sydney Sweeney go down the Mia Goth path
Unfortunately this entire movie was ruined for me because I was sandwiched between 2 of the WORST couples in the history of movie goers. The 2 teenage girls next to me WOULD NOT get off their damn phones the ENTIRE movie ON FULL BRIGHTNESS. AND EVERY LITTLE THING that happened they would gasp and loudly start talking/laughing, THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE MOVIE. Theres a scene where a bird hits a window and the 2 gorls were CACKLING and screaming as if it was the scariest/funnest thing to ever happen. And then during the quiet scenes of the movies they would just loudly start talking at the screen and saying things like "THERES SOMEONE BEHIND HER. BET. THERES A JUMPSCARE COMING. BET." THROUGHOUT THE WHOLEEEE MOVIEEEE. AND THEN the couple to the other side of me were these 2 old people who would NOT stop narrating the whole damn movie. There's a scene in the movie were Sidneys character throws up a tooth and the old lady next to me goes "omg! She threw up a tooth!" And then during another scene she goes "Shes walking barefoot!!" And during another scene she goes "OMG! HER WATER BROKE!" AT FULL VOLUME. LIKE WE GET IT. WE'RE WATCHING THE MOVIE TOO. WE'RE NOT BLIND. YOU DONT NEED TO NARRATE THE WHOLE MOVIE FOR US. OMGGGG It was the WORST movie experience of my life. I couldn't even focus on the damn movie. What happened to movie theater etiquette????? I was SO angry. Also at the end of the movie when sidney is doing you know what, the people I was sandwiched between were laughing uncontrollably over sidney sweenys scream.... it was insufferable.
i could believe sydney as a nun cause the first time i ever saw her was in handmaids tale and she was basically a nun like child bride in that role
I honestly didn’t have too high of hopes going into this film especially as the whole nun/church tropes have been done to death at this point, however I was very pleasantly surprised with some of the choices this movie made. The music was amazing especially since they incorporated a lot of it into the movie instead of feeling that it had a soundtrack thrown on top of it. I, admittedly had not seen any of Sydney’s previous works but she was amazing in this. And the ending, I didn’t know how they were going to pull it off, I will say it was a bold choice to do what they did. Like you though, I’m glad they did it tastefully
this is such perfect timing since I just got home from seeing this! I was literally thinking to myself as I watched this, "hmm,, I wonder if Sarah will watch/review this." I absolutely loved this film! The final half went so hard omfg! Sydney is a phenomenal actress and she really shines in this! One of my favorite up and coming scream queens for sure! I hope she does more horror stuff in the future :))
Its an interesting twist on Rosemary's Baby. I admire it didnt shy away from the gore. The villain was a bit hammy. I loved the score though.
I sort of saw it as the same thing, in a way. In Rosemary's Baby, her deciding to stay with the baby was her deciding to take control of that situation with HER baby. In Immaculate, same thing, we're seeing a woman take control of the situation
Just seen the movie, your review made me love this film 10 times more ❤
I did the same I watched the movie without even seeing the trailers. I hated the jump scares. But movie was okay. I enjoyed it.
I am looking forward to watching this because I think Sydney Sweeney is an excellent actress
People did say it was predictable but I surely thought it was demonic/antichrist etc. so the reveal of what was actually going on was pleasantly surprising
Hey!! I know you mainly do horror reviews but I would love a thriller review of Your Lucky Day, I just watched it and it was so captivating kept me on the edge of my seat the whole movie and would love to hear your take on it!
This movie definitely has its moments, I really liked how story driven it was instead of “jumpscare here and there”, my friends and I really enjoyed it
Am going to see the omen tomorrow and the trailer for that looks pretty similar, am surprised these movies would come out so close together!
I would love to hear your thoughts on the book Delicate Condition. It deals with pregnancy but in a way I think you would really appreciate. If you're skeptical, reading the authors note before reading the book might also be good as a way to see what the book is going for before actually getting into it.
I can say that if it was just one non-dream bird smash I can always get behind that just because I've had an all glass wall of an office and had a bird incident and it really is unbelievably heart stopping when it happens
It's happened me twice while driving 😭Poor little guys
My upcoming horror list and hope u get to review some: in a violent nature, maxxxine, long legs, tarot, strangers chapter 1, exhuma, and cuckoo!!
I'd love to see you review Rosemary's baby.
Only April horror movie I'm looking forward to is Abigail 🧛🏼♀️ so I hope you review that one!
I definitely will be!
I could totally see Sweeney in a movie like this - she was in the Handmaiden’s Tale series.
I really enjoyed this movie. I love movies set in convents etc, I thought it looked beautiful too. The priest was a bit of a cheesy character but I thought this movie was crazy in the best possible way.
Adore your channel, your reviews and personality. Thank you for being a woman horror reviewer woman with obviously a woman’s point of view!! It is much appreciated from one woman to another!! We need more more more!!! ❤❤❤ I hope you’ve recovered from the ending. I LOVED this movie. I generally strongly dislike catholic religious horror (still recovering from years of catholic school for the rest of my days) but I loved this one. I can see how it was hard for you mama. That end scene was bbbrrruuuuutalll… but OSCAR performance!! Sydney Sweeney bringing home the gold there! ( in my dreams, I know) ❤ THANK you again for being such a great horror reviewer!! I appreciate you!!
There is a mobile phone, sonogram and Karyn type test result, so there is a bit of technology shown.
This movie made me cry and I don't have kids, but as a woman, it's so relatable. I also like how it makes us reflect as to whether Mary even wanted to be a mother. Religion is often from the patriarchal perspective, so it's nice that the movie looks at that perspective without being completely anti-religion.
Im seeing it asap
I’m really excited to watch this movie. Can anyone tell me how to watch this movie ?? Is it available
So I really liked this movie. It's also my favorite of the year so far. I believe the movie takes place on 2014, because we she looks at the article about her drowning you can see almost the entire date, which is 200? So since she was 12 when that happened I figure it hasn't been much more than 10 years since so some time in the mid to late 2010s.
ahh I missed that thank you!
I saw this movie as a suprise on easter monday, so that was fitting.
In genereal I really likes this review, but I was wondering about the jumped scares point, because I can't remeber one single jump scare, except the one cut from pitch black to sunny day, like a flashbang went of in the cinema.
Of couse I can't speak to the emotion that this would project on someone how expirenced a pregnatcy, but for me this was a kinda tame movie.
The whole part with the failed tries remindet me most of Alien 4.
I've read that Sydney Sweeney 'forced' the change of the ending to the one we got and if nothing else for that she deserves some respect, she avoided the vanilla happyending.
For me the highlights of the first half were Sassy Sister Isabelle and Zero-F#+*s given Sister Gwen. In the beginning I found Sydney's performance weak, but she showed up fot the 2nd half.
All in all better then I expected, but overall still a very by the number 'horror' movie.
Loved this movie. I thought I knew where it was going to go but that 3rd act…woo! I can’t stop thinking about it and I *love* the pro-choice themes of this movie.
Because of all the nun horror, I thought that film Cabrini was one too!
I wasn’t sure about Cuckoo but the trailer said “body horror gem”. And now I’m down
I didn't think she killed it because it was deformed and out of mercy towards the baby, but because she was convinced that that baby should not exist. In the scene when she is confessing with the priest, she says 'this is not God's work', to which he replies 'if it's not, then why isn't he doing anything to stop it?' and she remains silent. To me, this is the moment where she thought 'then I am going to stop it, THIS is what God put me here for, THIS is why he saved my life'. And since that moment she was determined to end with all that devilish work. That's why she burned down the lab and killed the three people responsible, because she didn't need to do all that just to escape, she had to stop it. And that's also why she killed the baby, to finally put an end to it. And the movie ends right there too.
Left for the spoilers yesterday and booked a ticket for a morning matinee today: definitely dont regret it!- now Im back for the spoilers😈
Hey next time there’s a movie that you’re really anticipating and the trailer starts, just close your eyes and bring your headphones. You don’t know how many spoilers I’ve avoided doing that! They will show too much and kill surprises!🤔
I’m soooo surprised this movie is so polarizing. I wasn’t going to see this movie at all, because I wrote it off as another basic, boring, religious horror. I watched a little bit of your review and decided to go see it. Was good timing too cause I went in the 2nd to last day they were showing it, and I was by myself. 😂 I was pleasantly surprised by this film, I thought it was super interesting and really good! Sydney was fantastic and the gore was awesome. Literally the only negative is the pointless jump scares. I really hope we get more work from Sydney in horror!
I fuckin loved this movie from start to finish like I was so invested. Sidney Sweeny gave such an amazing performance and that final act I fuckin loved. I didn’t have any complaints for this movie other than expecting the ppl wearing the red masks to show up more but that’s it. It was a 9.5/10 for me. I didn’t mind the jumpscares personally.
agree 100%, i loved it and the first two acts are kinda things we’ve seen before but they’re done very well regardless
Sydney Sweeney :)
Since my friend dragged me outta the house to see this, I had no idea what the plot was I just knew it had a nun. Im currently pregnant with an IVF baby and lemme tell you it was kinda bizarre seeing that haha
Would definitely watch it again. It was surprisingly good. Reminded me a bit of the 2018 Suspiria remake.
Did you also get to see the In A Violent Nature trailer??
I haven’t yet! is it a trailer I should watch or avoid? like does it show too much?
@@PossessedbyHorror if I’m being honest I have no clue if it gives things away because it’s so stylized, but I am so excited for it 💀It played for me before my showing of Immaculate along with Longlegs and Cuckoo (omg those will be insane, sad Cuckoo was pushed back)
Looks soooo good!!
I'm glad you were able to push your limits and feel good about it! I'm trying to do the same this year lol
i just got around to watching Inside (meaning i watched most of it behind my hands and barely saw the last 10 minutes) and perhaps i've seen enough baby theft for one year😅
Please share where you got that shirt!!! ❤
ABlackStar shop on Etsy!
This was a great movie! Sydney Sweeney’s acting was INCREDIBLE. She’s a fantastic very talented actress. She was so good that the movie would have not been the same without her. The scene of her screaming at the very end, damn that was 100% talent. And I thought the entire ending was a masterpiece
Can you review Mundane
I’m sure there was a phone on the car when they were taking her to the hospital. That’s how they found out about chicken blood.
I loved the film! And SS is amazing in it! I’m religious so it creeped the heck outta me.
When I saw this and THAT last scene you were the first person I thought of given your chats about how certain things in horror you can't watch anymore since becoming a Mom 🙈
😭 triggering even just from the description 😭 I have a special needs kiddo who obviously had something genetic going on at birth - 😮💨😮💨
I can definitely see how this movie would be upsetting if you had a special needs child. But I also think we get a lot of movies where the mother keeps the demon baby and loves it. And there is nothing wrong with loving your child no matter what, because they are your baby.
I just think that even if the baby was totally fine, I don't think the character would have wanted it.
@@carlycrays2831 true too 💔❤️🩹
I hope you’re watching the first omen as well!
so glad i saw this without knowing almost anything about it, such a good watch!
It was the director's first "Horror" movie. So I think he did fairly well. Sydney Sweeney was great in the movie and as a producer as well. I appreciate the "Nunsploitation" aspects but they didn't go as far as most of those movies had. It might have been too campy if they went that way too hard.
Finally watched it and **spoilers** I will say the dream sequence that follows her confession does seem to have a bit of merit to it when you realize that she is on a table with people around her touching her while she screams. While it likely in reality wasn’t her face being touched like it was so oddly in the dream, she does fall pregnant after passing out that night, so it could very well have been her mind typing to come up with an odd coping nightmare of what happened during her being unconscious.
i definitely got the feeling that it was a demon baby lol. what convinced me specifically was the pastor saying 'if God didn't want this, then why isn't he stopping us?' and then everyone dies to a symbol of God (the cross, the rosemary, the nail)
Also what i absolutely DID NOT expect was to hear Schedryk (carol of bells) fully in Ukrainian in that scene where she kills other nun with a cross
