The scariest part of this movie is how pelle probably only became friends with those dudes for the sole purpose of sacrificing them. Sometimes it be ya own homies
It was helpful that they made them assholes. Especially the one who peed on the ancestral tree like who does that. He never even said sorry
@@megmur1766 TRUE. If the guys were just a little likeable I might have actually felt bad
@@megmur1766 Yep. Maybe that's one of the reasons why he chose them. The one guy writing his thesis wasn't so bad though.
@@katwebbxo nah he was invasive and went against their wishes. So actually he was worse to me. Bc he was the most informed and to me it made him the most offensive. Dude who peed on the tree was just ignorant.
@@megmur1766 Yeah I think that's fair. It bothered me too when I first watched it that he didn't tell them what was going on when they asked. To me, the others were just more annoying and remind me of certain people I can't stand lol.
Love the guy in the middle, he just seems so empathetic to Dani and understanding and also constantly dissing Christian and the things he said😂
Appreciate the kind words! Christian was the worst 😂 - Rob
The guy on the middle was always kind of respecting women in movies from the bunch of reactions I've seen. These guys are not the type of white guys I thought they would when I first came on the channel lmao thought they'd be the ding dong athletes type.. they proved me wrong (in a good way)
@@manofmovies29 ^
Meanwhile Dani was plenty happy to fuckin murder him, after he was drugged and raped.
Yeah, Christian’s the real “bad” guy here. 🙄
@@manofmovies29 I know, I was happy to see that they were so weirded out by Scott Pilgrim dating a 17-year old and not acting like it was normal. Happy to see that they seem educated and aren’t ignorant.
You really have to hand it to Rob for going absolutely stone faced whenever someone's either making a spot on prediction or says something that is hilariously off, so as not to give away the plot, that takes some discipline lol
I love Rob
I also love rob! 😍
Y'all are legit the ONLY reactors to notice Pelle peeking through that cabin after they blow drugs in Christian's face! Nobody else saw that!
Omg I didn’t know
timestamp?
@@andyseinfeld1954 50:31 it’s a super quick moment. You can see him through the slats to the left of the lady in the back.
I didn't see that either!
Man I seen that and my heart dropped because he had a sinister look on his face for the first time in the movie
I think it was easy for Pelle to see that Dani was in a mental state to be seduced into the cult. She had just suffered a massive trauma by losing her parents and her sister. She didn’t appear to have any other family or good friends. Her boyfriend wasn’t into her any more. She didn’t seem excited about school or a career.
So I think at the end, Dani did want to stay with the cult. They showed her empathy and seemed happy to have her there. She also had nothing to go home to. So, since she made the decision to stay, she chose Christian to be sacrificed. She didn’t want to anger the cult members by choosing one of them to die, plus it was a way to burn away all of her old life.
And that final act, pushed her into insanity.
The last lines of the screenplay read (regarding Dani).
“A smile finally breaks onto Dani’s face. She has surrendered to a joy known only by the insane. She has lost herself completely and she is finally free. It is horrible and it is beautiful.”
Wow the last lines tie together the ending perfectly
Thank you for sharing that
She didn’t want to anger the cult members? I don’t agree
“I would not be erect.” idk why but that absolutely killed me
which minute
@@nabeelking3310 46:46
He was drugged tho
@@Diarrheagod I didn’t say he wasn’t
@@angel-xi6ie I didn’t say u said he wasn’t
Worst thing about being cooked alive in a bear carcass: the fat in the carcass would heat up and melt before getting to you, thus instead of being burned, you would essentially be melted in hot fat. 10/10 in worst ways to go.
Omg why’d you think of this 😩🤣😭
I think you'd end up frying
And well that they are in a bear carcass. Alive. And not being able to Move, Talk, or do anything.
Um. No. You would be burned. You don’t get turned to liquid just because the fat has liquified. That isn’t how that works.
Either way you are being cooked to death. Idk how which one is worse
The freakiest and coolest thing about this movie is how nobody lies about their culture. The entire time Pele tells half truths, but none of them ever lies when asked outright, only when covering up the murders. It truly shows that they see nothing wrong with their ways of thinking. That, and how it is never complete night time. Having the sun constantly shining with brightness and tranquility amongst a cult is so aesthetically different to the entire horror genre, I think it's part of what really made this movie stand out.
See thats what i like most about this movie. They didnt use a cult, that would give you a big bad to hate. This is just their culture, they have lived like this for centuries. It makes it harder to pick someone to hate on.
At 55:06 - "I bet no one else has ever died like that." Actually, that was another Viking ritual torture, to be burned alive in a bear. The bear skin constricts as it burns, squishing the person inside, as they are being cooked. So which aspect kills him? The burning? The asphyxiation because of smoke inhalation? The crushing of his organs? It's hard to say which comes first, but I am sure that all of it is painful.
through this reaction i’m going through the comments reading all the comments you’ve written 😂
my favorite part is Rob giving the Jim Halpert stare at the camara everytime Zuff says something dumb 🤣
Omg glad someone else said it. 🤣 Rob is me any time I watch their reactions. I say this with love. Every reaction I find myself talking to Zuff through the screen yelling, “just watch and stop trying to predict what’s gonna happen!” Or, “Zuff, pay attention you keep missing key scenes.”
It’s so good
@@itss_nattyj same!!! But that’s also why I love seeing Zuff’s reactions too lmaooo their dynamic as a group is awesome.
@@zavs350 Agreed. After watching their recent Q&A, I understood their friendship and each person better, and I now have a better appreciation for all of them.
At 55:32 - They gave Mark the jester hat because... towards the beginning of their stay in Harga, the kids were dancing to "Skin the Fool." Mark was the fool who refused to understand how badly he behaved, urinating on their sacred tree. They skinned him, and he was burned wearing the fool's cap.
A lot of people don't understand why Dani gave in. It's as Pele said- the cult is a family and they share everything: pain, happiness, death, pleasure.. everything. That's why they vocalize Dani's cries with her, and the family members burning to death. To them, they literally feel each other's emotions as though they were all one. That level of intimacy and support is odd to see, it's extreme. But when you realize that it is the opposite of being alone, you can understand why is it better.
She finally felt held
Damn, the cult actually got you to believe that shit. You’re a prime candidate for recruit.
She was in a very fragile mental state making her a prime target to be love bombed by a cult. In the end she went insane. She broke because of the amount of trauma she had endured. There’s only so much a human mind can take before it breaks. It’s simple psychology
@@SnailHatanright. What a moron.
Nobody notices that after Christian eats the Pune pie, he takes a sip of his drink which is notably darker than everyone else’s because there’s period blood in it lol
I did!!! And it always bugs me that its never mentioned 😂
Yum yum
Something that’s worth pointing out is the movie only showed 4 out of the 9 days of the festival… it’s not over
…this comment sent shivers down my spine
all 3 of you were visibly sooo fucking stressed this entire movie😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💀
At 58:02 - "It's weird how it wasn't explained..." Upon many watches, the audience can observe that Terri hooked herself and her parents up to the car exhaust to die of carbon monoxide poisoning in a murder/suicide of herself and her parents. She was on a supreme downswing of her bipolar situation, where she was "going to the darkness and taking their parents with her."
It's a moment you skipped over towards the beginning - it's one of the reasons that Dani was trying so hard to get in contact with her sister and parents. Terri's email terrified Dani. Dani (while in her apartment in college) tried to warn her parents that something was off about Terri's email, and she was scared. When she couldn't get in contact, she called Christian, who dismissed Dani's concern as "Terri is just acting out in a bid for attention."
The scene with Terri and her parents is dark and hard to see, but it is a recurring vision that Dani keeps having in her bad, traumatic drug trips: her sister with a hose taped to her mouth.
The screaming in unison was to show empathy (something Dani never got from Christian). So she really did feel a since of family and support.
No, it was to fake empathy. It’s a classic cult tactic.
As disturbing as this movie is, I think it's beautifully written and the cinematography is so good. Horror is one of my favorites genres so I really appreciate when it's done well. 💕
As much as I don’t like horror films this one is great but I am glad that your next movie reaction is parasite which is a masterpiece cannot wait for that one
The scissors in the baby's bed are probably to protect it from being taken by trolls and replaced with a changeling.
It’s funny because the director said this is just a really fucked up break up story.
I never watch scary movies and I found a spider sitting on my f*cking shoulder watching this. Like the spider was watching it with me, this movie is cursed.
48:25 They aren't mocking her, they're empathizing with her.
No, they aren’t. They are faking empathy. The fact that so many people like you actually believe their manipulations is fuckin terrifying.
simon wasn't alive in the blood eagle scene. his lungs were moving from christian's POV, to show us he was under drugs
"don't some of these european countries not get dark?" "that's alaska" hahahaha this was such an american take
Enjoyed the reaction- have to saying it's easier to notice things you brush past on the first watch. I'm not sure if you noticed, but around the few scenes after Connie isn't seen- you can hear a womans screams- about three times spread out. It's also hinted that she was trying to get away when Mark says "I saw Connie trying out for the sprinting Olympics earlier." Meaning she was seriously running- Pelle interrupts to keep them from asking more questions.
They also treat Dani different from the others- they welcome everyone, but tell Dani "Welcome Home". They try to introduce Dani the most to their customs, like the meat pie making, dancing, and the way they dress.
I have heard some say there's a theory that Pelle was the one who killed her family making it look like suicide, taking the parents with the sister. Since Dani says the message was very strange- and not like her. It would make her more likely to be vulnerable to join the cult, and make sure Christian couldn't break up with her before the trip. Pelle seems very fixated and happy about her coming- like it was part of his plan all along, even before she's invited.
At the same time it still could be her sister doing it. Her message to Dani I think was during it happening, everything is black- meaning the exhaust fumes were filling up the room and house. It likely was the last message she sent before dying right there.
I do think even if Dani didn't go, the events that happened would have still gone the way they did. Dani was very isolated and left alone a lot. Christian still would have 'mated' with the young girl, it just would have been more open from his end. Simon and Connie would have still freaked out, and made the village upset- resulting in their deaths. Josh still would have tried to get pictures- and have been killed. Mark still would have done something 'foolish' or disrespectful to their culture- and have been killed.
And Christian likely would have been chosen by one of the May Queens if it wasn't Dani. From their perspective he would have been a stranger, and easier to pick over the rest of the village members.
I am glad that none of the midsummer celebrations I've attended had ended up like this... 🤣🤣
Maybe it hasn't been 90 years yet since the last time lol
@@katwebbxo i have a theory about that. What if they only meant the feast happens every 90 years, but they do the murders every year? Because there has to be an annual may queen based on the photos we are shown. And we dont see any of the other may queens in the entire movie. It doesnt make sense that it would only happen once every 90 years if they have dozens of actual photographs and not jusr drawings of may queens? And the attestupe has to happen almost annually if not annually, people get killed at 72
@@adamsmasher9769 That's definitely possible. I've wondered about it too. Idk how many people live there but there's has to be somebody reaching that age more often than 90 years.
Crazy what different experiences people can have watching the same movie. I hated Mark so much he couldn't die soon enough. I seriously hated the main crew of guys waaaay more than the cult.
I lost my family not too long before I saw this so I was in Dani's head through the whole movie. Christian's cowardice was so much more evil than the cult.
When you are as traumatized as Dani is, every little thing he does/doesn't do is like another trauma on top of the other. I was so shell shocked by everything she was experiencing along with her that by the end I felt the same surreal feelings of intense relief at the end along with her.
Starting with when they were screaming in unison with her to surround her with sympathy&empathy. Even though everything they did was to manipulate her, I didn't care. It was so much safer with the cult than the people she came with at that point.
Also, did you notice the "horror movie formula"? The sacrifices according to the formula must be "The fool" (Mark) "the scholar" (Josh) "the harlot" (Connie. Because Pelle's brother was jealous that she started dating Simon instead of him, if you'll remember) and the alpha (Christian or Simon depending on how you look at it). The virgin (Dani) doesn't have to be sacrificed as long as she suffers.
I’m sorry about you losing your family I hope that with time you’ll heal ❤️❤️❤️ best wishes
@@seeker995 you're kind. 5 years later I am doing way better with a lot to look forward to-- and I didn't have to join a cult or anything.
I'm very sorry for your loss. I also felt for Dani throughout the whole movie and hated the group of guys except for Josh.
Hate is a reflection of a person because hate is something that comes from the inside. I personally felt sorry for them because they didn’t know how ignorant and stupid they were.
Omg yes the screeching music was way too loud in this movie 😭 like dam turn it down lol.
Now that I think of it, it’s purposely done like that to make u uncomfortable. Totally goes with the plot of the movie!
I saw this in theaters and… it was an experience lol
I saw it at the theater without knowing what the movie was about. It was definitely an experience. Especially with listening to peoples reactions. I usally don't like when people talk during movies, but I completely understood during this one.
i saw it with my mom and we had LOVED Hereditary so we were expecting something.. wild. didn’t disappoint. we ended up going again like a week or two after and brought my friend, i think she was weirded out lmfaoo
it's all part of the "good for her" cinematic universe
One of the things i love about this movie is that there isnt a cult, its a culture. Theres no one person manipulating everyone, this is just how they have lived for centuries
Yup. No narcissist leader, just s culture that’s *very* different than ours. There’s actually a lot of beautiful things about it too, the main one being how much of a collective unit it is. Yeah it’s kinda weird, but they experience Dani’s pain with her. Dani has been isolated like crazy in her life, and here’s the community that accepts her as she is and is willing to go through her emotions with her.
@@dancer004 and thats the beauty of using a culture. You have to absorb it all and you can actually see ups and downs. Wifh a cult you would just have one big bad you could view as an enemy. Although, if you read swedish (i dont but some people who do have pointed this out) the books in front of pele actually have some nazi rhetoric on it and the big banner over the road on the way to the harga says to vote against immigration and to keep sweden white or something like that, so thats a BIIIG downside to the harga lol
That's ignoring the fact that they have a Priest class that are the only ones able to decipher "divine texts" from a prophet.
Congrats, you just got manipulated by the cult just like Dani. The real point of this movie…
(spoilers) i think the part where they were singing their moans and crying with Dani was to illustrate the lack of individuality inside the cult. they share even feelings. ofc that Dani, that lost her family and is estranged from her awful bf is more susceptible to the cult in her vulnerability. not having to feel all of that alone anymore in exchange for her free will. it's what cults do.
How was this a spoiler
Bro y’all HAVE to watch Mother! (2017) starring Jennifer Lawrence… that Movie is NUTS your reaction would be so good
“I’m excited to see this place burn to the fucking ground” 🤣 🤣 🤣
This is exactly how we celebrate the swedish holiday of Midsommar actually 😉
🤣
🤣🤣
Do y'all watch a virgin have her own first sex and do you copy the moan?
I really enjoyed y’all’s reaction! This movie is so disturbing, but I love it. If you ever get the chance to watch the director’s cut, I highly recommend it. It goes a little deeper into Christian & Dani’s relationship, and he looks like even more of a douche!😂 You guys need to watch Hereditary!🙌
i love the guy in the middle he is me i am him lmaoo
With the bright pastel colors and central focus, I thought this was a horror film in the style of Wes Anderson. 😆
THIS IS PERFECT!!! I was just about to look for something to sit down and watch while I eat pasta thank you lol
I think it may just be me but I'm having a hard time keeping up with whats going on in the movie because I can barely hear the audio...
Robs face during this entire movie is the funniest thing ever
HOW did this MANS find the face in the first scene on his first watch and i still dont see it
So, in the beginning of the movie Dani’s mom and sister die because her sister attached the hoses to the exhaust pipes of the car in the garage. The exhaust from the first tube filled the parents bedroom, killing them in their sleep. The 2nd, she attached to her face.
I found you yesterday (since it's after midnight now) through Parasite and clicked on this because I've seen it already XD Absolutely love your channel and I can't wait for you to watch Hereditary now. Hereditary is by Ari Aster the same director as this film and Hereditary was his directorial debut and is phenomenal. Midsommar came out the year afterward and Ari Aster called this the ultimate breakup movie. I will not say anything about Hereditary because it's best to go into it not knowing anything about it but it is one of my absolute favorite movies hands down. Hereditary and All About Evil with Natasha Lyonne are my recommendations for sure!
Great reaction guys! I like the guy in the middle, sorry forgot his name but he always seems so clued into what's going on! Love it ! Also more reactions to All of us are dead please!
What makes it horror? Loss of family, loss of agency, loss of self.
There’s this cult documentary that analyzes cult scenes and they used some clips including the congregation crying with Dany and the women, it almost removes her autonomy and her pain, and it makes it seem like they share it with her, but it’s to deceive and to make her feel as if she’s a part of them to ease the transition. Like when ppl all sing together at a concert, when it’s over you feel like you were part of something greater. Also the way they are crying starts to sound like a chant, it can become rhythmic and even induce a trance. 👀
i absolutely love midsommar, great reaction!!!🐻
Also im almost positive Maya is supposed to be 16 cause they talked about it a little bit and THATS why its so distturbing cause she a literal child.
16 isn't a child
@@strangeanimations58816 is still very very young to be doing it with an adult, yes 16 is a child
haven't even watched yet but this is my favourite movie so thank you guys
It's safe to say that Josh's thesis will never be published.
I love you guys! You are one of my fav reactors. You all have such soothing voices lol. So glad you are doing movies. I still gotta watch the Train to Busan reaction. Keep it up!
Watch Knives Out!!!! Murder mystery
One of my all time fav movies so happy to see this when I refreshed my home page!!!
watched this movie once & never went back 😂😂
The hair in this reaction was top tier. You guys look beautiful, should bring it back ❤
Love how weird Midsommar is. The way it's filmed is amazing and the actors, especially Florence, are outstanding in this.
The Swedish "Get Out!"😮
I like the part when all the women are screaming with Dani. We all just want our pain acknowledged and to me, that looked like radical empathy. My sister was going through a deeply hard time this past Christmas and after seeing it in a movie, her, my mother, and I all did "primal screaming." You literally just do full-powered, loud as you can screams that come from deep inside the soul. It's like you're tapping into some function of early human biology that we rarely use anymore. Except this time into a pillow so the neighbors didn't think we were being murdered. It did help release the feelings but my mom and I were mostly doing it over and over so my sister didn't feel silly. She loved it so much, she took it back to her outpatient facility the next day and all the women in her ED program did primal screaming together, too. So, yea, to me, the part where all the women are yelling and moaning in pain along to Dani seems kind of nice. I actually didn't mind any of the dramatic empathy parts, as weird as it looked. However, the pube pies, face-wearing, and bear suits aren't exactly something I'd like to get in on.
was looking forward to this vid. hell yeah boys
Since after that movie Florence Pugh the May Queen now only cooks all her meals for movie sets. When she signed on with Marvel she put in her contract that she be in control of her meals and nutrition. This pagan magic, voodoo stuff is pretty real world.
I'm rewatching your old videos and i'm surprised how young you look here😂 it’s only been a year wtf. Love you guyss!
This movie really surprised me with his good it was, once the women all breathed together I knew she felt held.
Has Rob watched a lot of movies or have you guys just not watched enough movies? I feel like that’s the real question lol
Hahaha it’s definitely a bit of both! - Rob
yall should do black swan
Killing of a Sacred Deer!! You guys will have a trip on that.
Keep killin it. Y’all are clowns too hahah
Is hereditary next or WUT
Christian was indeed the worst boyfriend or person ever. If someone had to die, he was definitely top of the list. His friends were not cool either, the way they talked about Dani and the way they disrespected the community where they were guests.
this movie gave me anxiety, depression, panic attack and what not.....till date havent watched it till end
never again, I only watched it one time and it still haunts me
43:30 Maja is definitely no older than 16.
Pic looks like it's from a Scandinavian festival.
Idk why I’m watching this cause this movie traumatized tf outta me 😩
12:22 in this part of the movie the old guy says "welcome HOME" to Dani... yikes
React to hereditary please!!! Best horror/thriller film to date!!!
The details in this movie are crazy
come on now Rob dont look at me like that i’m shyyyy 😳
Another great movie that delves into differing cultures is the original 1973 version of The Wicker Man. If you haven't seen it yet I highly recommend it.
Yes, the original only! 👍
I think her sister bringing her parents with her was alot of people who do comit murder suicides do it because they dont want their parents to be the one who find them. They dont want their parents to suffer after they are gone. It doesnt make it right AT all but the thinking behind it kinda makes sense in a way.
Maja is supposed to be 15 they said
React to Hereditary next!
RIP Mark
Y’all should review Mandy it’s an amazing nic cage film
This movie is a true art form dare I say masterpiece
You guys should check out the Frida Kahlo movie I bet you would love it!! Seriously such a beautiful film 🍿
I wish the audio of the movie was clean so I could follow along. Don’t know what anyone’s saying.
Oh and also please watch not only Mandy, but also Hereditary, and the original Wickerman.
[Edit]: Also do The VVitch, and The Blair Witch Project.
Can you guys pleaseeeee react to the Scream movies? A new one just came out in January and Scream is pretty popular right now!
Rewatching this realizing Simon is Farleigh from 'Saltburn'. And again, the only one realizing at the start how fucked things are. 😆😆
...the truly terrifying thing is the possibility that these types of "rituals" may most probably be practiced by "the power that be" a.k.a. the 0.0000000001% that want the rest of us to eat ze bugs...
As a Swede I feel insulted by this movie. They made the weirdest mix of what would seem like traditions and made everything go Planet of the fricking Apes. I laughed and I was disgusted.
Omg you guys look like babies here!
How did he watch this 3 times? One was enough for me.
you guys should watch this new movie fresh. its a horror
Yeah you can see that in part where dude has Christian telling him its danys birthday oh really that dunmy lol
Jennifer’s body next
Me, who watched Norsemen S01E01: oh aeuttstup. of couse.
when's aouad ep 5
