    In A Classic Horror Story, a group of strangers stumble into a living nightmare where a deadly cult hunts them down. However there is a meta twist that changes everything we thought we knew up to that point. We're breaking down the story, the odd backstory of the cult involving the Mafia, as as explaining the ending and what it means.

    i did enjoy the meta jab of horror being dismissed as a genre with the dude just skimming through the movie and giving it a thumbs down, but everybody whipping their phone out during the beach scene felt so on the nose they may as well have worn joker make up

      They were the creepiest part of the movie.
      Because they’re not supernatural beings we can project our own shitty behavior onto.
      They’re us.
      Nothing to do with cell phones. That’s just more projection.

Not only is it a horribly predictable scene, it's also completely lacking in originality, practically pulled from the pages of a political cartoon, and just plain stupid. Having even one person at least *look* concerned could have done away with the unintentional comedy factor but the director just *had* to make a "statement" I guess

    It is also a common trope with women walking straight into the ocean at the end of a story within literature and media. It represents breaking away from society, either from cleansing themselves in the water or by giving up and coming to terms with never being able to have autonomy in this society by killing themselves. a great example of this is the ending of The Awakening.

They wound up right near the cabin he intended them to stay in. Fabrizio was the one who led Ricardo to the creepy Wicker Man-type hangings in the woods. Fabrizio purposefully lied about the direction the were going, making them go in circles and stay away from the beach. I liked this. Went into it completely blind on plot or synopsis, let alone watching a trailer. I feel this movie benefitted from not knowing anything about it before watching it.

That mafia and it actually being a film set ruined the entire good atmosphere they had from the beginning. I wanted it to be something like all of them find a way to destroy the brothers or something only to unleash an even worse nightmarish creature. Or something! Like a culttttttt. Ugh

    This movie's whole message is... Asinine. Yes, as a culture we (generally speaking) are desensitized to death, and pain. In media. I guarantee you that a person who consumes horror/action movies, games, and other alternative entertainment will piss themselves if a real murder was done in front of them.
    As for that girl as sea, people wouldn't just record, at least, not a majority. Give humans more credit then that, the message was alright, but very poorly done.

What does it say about us, what does the message from this movie say about us? Nothing, it's just for bored housewives to respond to with 'shocking'.

    The best "Your phones are desensitizing you to people in distress right in front of you" message was in _Black Mirror's_ "White Bear."
    Unfortunately, it's since become so much of a trope that we're almost calloused to the callousness of people merely watching the distress of others. The worst example of this in recent memory now sounds like a overdone movie premise: a woman in Philadelphia was raped on the subway while ten witnesses filmed, but did not intervene.

    So how did they just blink from the middle of the woods back to the cabin if it was real life.

    You should also review "The Nest", the other movie made by Roberto De Feo. It's really well made!

    The whole 'phones make us disconnected' jab at society is so overdone at this point I feel like. They seem like its such a profound statement when in reality it just seems more like an easy point to make thats already been done to death. Cool movie otherwise though

    There is a 1994 Italian film called dellamorte dellamore starring Rupert Everett. It's also known as the cemetery man. Very strange film, I'd love to know what your take is.

      Actually I'd love to know your take on a few Older films too. I like watching stuff from the forties and fifties when I can get my hands on it. Like murders in the zoo or the old dark house. Both are awesome

      I really enjoy your videos. I've been watching for a while and love to listen to you describe movies I've already seen while I'm working or to see if a movie is worth my time or not. I'm a tough sell on films nowadays and you are thorough enough but also don't talk it to death so I will still be able to enjoy a watch through myself if it's a good flick. Thanks for all you do.

      I like to alternate between you and Oliver Harper's retrospectives, I wonder if you know that channel? Logan's run is a perfect one to start off with. OH gives a bit more context around the films developments but that also means his vids can be very long and require more focus to enjoy sometimes.

    I really enjoy watching these videos because I'm not a fan of watching horror movies, but I really want to know the story. Thank you.
