In the mystery sci-fi thriller What Lies Below, a socially awkward teen meets her Mom's new beau, a man whose charm, intelligence, and beauty seems too perfect to be human. There's a lot of questions left by the inconclusive and vague ending, so we'll be tackling every one we can! We're breaking down the story, including who John really is and his master plan, along with explaining the abrupt ending and what it means.

he could smell her genetic makeup just from smelling her shirt, but couldn't guess the mom's age?
YEEEEESSSSSSS!
@callmecatalyst The Room? I haven’t seen trolls 2, tbf
@@eileensnow6153 oh god you have to watch trolls 2. it's arguably just as bad as the room if not worse. the funniest thing is the movie is called trolls 2 when the main monsters are called goblins.
@callmecatalyst AWWWWWWMAIIIGAAAHD...
It can be logical actualy. People have two ages - the genetic one and the year they were born. There are Telemers in your cells (telemers are kinda like the genetic clock of your body - the shorter they are - the older you are) and You may be in your 20s but if you do stuff that shorten them - like smoking, drinking, sugar , all that good stuff - your body ages beyod your "actual" age. But its true in reverse too - if you take care of yourself your body may be 10 years and more younger than your "real" age.
Him licking the period blood is the moment when this movie jumped the shark.
legit first fucking comment I read
💀
hur hur shark week
@@kremit_wick9372 I saved you some time then.
I’ve overheard ladies talk about this subject and I almost died
I personally think that John isn't an alien or extra terrestrial but infact a species that has lived on earth in secret living in deep under water caves. Which explains the goddess bracelets and talking about earth changing.
Subterralien?
I actually thought he was some fish man/mermaid being too. It would explain why he wants to do all the scientific research with the ocean in order to “save it”
@@lizzard3434 yeah, the movie implied that he's some fish person that specifically lives in fresh water.
Maybe even related to the Lamprey which he keeps, also like the lamprey their species is acting like parasites to survive.
@@lizzard3434 i agree and i think the girls at the end were being turned into them to try and rebirth the race
John is that creature that he’s fascinated with. It attaches to a host and can adapt. Surviving fir 300 years. He gave her that fertility bracelet to prepares her to have a baby by him. Such a creepy movie. Grosses me out
I was expecting a steamy thriller where the daughter hooks up with her moms secretly deranged boyfriend and instead left with creepy alien guy who is not just a guy but in fact 5 guys
"I'm 5 guys burgers and fries" -TFS
Literally same ! Lol
Aka upgrade! Lmao
that's very telling of your character lol
That’s what I thought to
"He removes his shirt and sucks the sweat from it"
Uh WAH?
Yeah dude that part is SO GROSS. HOW was that not her red flag?!?
foundflix glossed over it like it was nothing lol
@@dude59974 Yeah. You'd think she'd at least want to follow up on that in some way
@@nathan8750 Yeah that's why I had to comment it. You can't gloss over that! 😂
🤢🤮
As soon as he explained his work with helping freshwater creatures adapt quickly I fucking knew this man was a lamprey in a skin suit.
So is that what he was? I'm still confused.
@@mrsx7944old civilization creatures or alien
So he’s not an alien?
They look more like sisters than mother and daughter. Also, either I’m crazy, or they are definitely blondes... not redheads.
Exactly! How are they redheads?
The daughter's actress is actually 27 which could be the reason they look more like sisters and yeah they are definitely blondes not redheads.
It's more like orange. But I think it is considered red from a scientific standpoint
I think the daughter mentioned at the start of the film that her mom dyed her hair and that it was originally red. The daughter’s hair is clearly blonde but since she shares the same genes as the mom she technically has the same genetic mutation.
Same here
As somebody who deals with Centipedes nearly on a daily basis, I just have to mention that they are spiteful bastards that would never protect something as sentimental as their own children. Still, they’re fine so long as you don’t try to pick them up.
That description though 😂😂😂
😂😂"spiteful bastards"😂💔
They're super super quick too. And don't get crushed when i try and step on em. Just run off
Nice... I have about 191 centipedes they are actually pretty domesticated...
They always protect eachother and save the structures they all live in... these are from the Amazon and like... super big
@@grimgrom3355 holy shit, you're raising demons, what do you feed them? Pieces of your soul?
The way your jokes have improved from years ago is so underrated 😂 you’ve gotten so much funnier
Lol yeah
And yet he is still the same person.
@Marc Wood no, I’m just saying he’s gotten funnier
Haha yea
agreed!!!!, although hes been pretty funny regardless
When I saw that he was specifically selecting redheads, it occurred to me that red hair is a recessive gene, even moreso than blond (which is why it's so rare), and is often accompanied by other recessive physical traits (blue or green eyes, pale skin). My theory is that if the aliens' goal is to further their genetic line, it would make sense to find partners with more recessive genes, so that the alien genes play a greater role in the development of the offspring.
That’s actually...a pretty good and logical theory
@@NoOne-pj9bo Thanks. Usually it sucks when no one gives you a compliment.
@@illusion-xiii aw don't worry bro, I'm proud of you for your theory, seems pretty smart too n I believe you
I highly doubt the writer of this movie thought that hard about it. They probably just wrote this screenplay and added it because they like redheads. Good theory tho.
Wow
Remember ladies! If a man WAAAAY out of your league suddenly wants to go fast paced with you, he’s probably a serial killer. ;)
For men too
Or a lizard man
That moment of "She messages her friend to come over".
You just instantly know the friend is going to get oofed.
Also, who falls asleep while their friend is confronting your parent(s) without even walkng your friend out or staying up to ask what happened?
That scene made no sense at all.
"...he then licks the blood from his hands.."
I SCREAMED!!
That had to be a weird scene to film..
Me too!!!!
Too bad she didn’t practice witchcraft or voodoo then she could control him
my stomach felt queasy. 🤢
I gasped 😂😂😂
"16 year old"
She looks 30.
I'll never understand why they don't just use actors/actresses the age they are supposed to be.
Just looked her up because I thought the same thing... the actress is 27 🤦🏽♀️
It’s hard to employ actors under 18, but you’d think they could find 18-22 actors. 🤷🏻♀️
usually because they're more work restrictions with minors
TY! First thing I noticed in the car with her mom haha
A movie called Chad just vomited onto the scene that has a 43 yr old woman playing a 13 ry old boy.
If I had a 16-year-old daughter and my boyfriend gave her a fertility bracelet I’d tell him to leave and never come back
Edit: ty for all the likes u guys on the dumb comment i made while stoned yall xD
HELL YEAH!
THATS definitely a huge red flag 💀😂
I'd be like " . . . Yeah, NO GTFO "
All he wants to do is watch the Ravens game nothing will happen.
@@captainpalsy2092 why don't you take a seat?
No kidding! Right?!!
My first instinct would be: to protect my daughter.
Not: I hope you're ok with us getting married & we're pregnant. Seriously?!!
eh she was under some kind of hormone trance from him, so she wasn't in the right state of mind.
I've never actually seen someone throw a dish rag over their shoulder anywhere other than on television.
I tried once. Smacked myself in the face.
Because normal people don't like it when there shoulders are wet.
I’ve done it with rags I use at a horse barn I ride at. Easier than carrying it when you’ve got to worry about holding shampoo bottles, saddles, horses, etc...
🤣🤣🤣🤣CNN blackmail so true!!! Real life ppl never do that,!
"he removes his shirt and sucks down the sweat from it"
IS THIS A THING???
Only for aliens.
Gross right lol
Nope. Ewwww.
Fbttcbbr
some dude in the comments said they do it in India
I can't believe I'm now old enough that Mena Suvari can now play a mom to a teenager...
Well she totally looks the same age as the daughter who's 27 in real life by the way
I knew she looked familiar
I really don't understand why they casted someone who looks their age.
Same with Reese Witherspoon it’s weird seeing her play a mom to teenagers too
@@latia7139 Which movie is that, with Reese Witherspoon?
*Your best friend comes over to help you with a potential dangerous person & she goes to argue with him & you listen for a while before you go to bed*
Sure makes perfect sense...
I think there was something in the food she ate that made her sleep off
THANK YOU! The movie overall is just "ok" but reasonably interesting at parts but that moment was basically on par with teens deciding now's the time dip and pull while Jason's around.
“Not to be confused with ‘What Lies Beneath’ from TWENTY YEARS AGO”..... checks my pulse.
Marjorie, I know right? I think the earlier one was better
@@kittiekat8920 much
I just can't believe it's been 20 years! Makes me feel so old LOLLL. I used to watch this DVD over and over on a rainy day. Loved the story.
@@marjoriesinverts same. I remember when What Lies Beneath was fresh out the box new. EXCELLENT movie.
She should have called the cops when he was drinking his sweat like it's lemonade.😳🤢 That's a crime right there😂😂💔
If he was sucking his sweat , doesn't sweat have salt in it???
@@judymcgaugh6480 true 😂
yeeeesss, him n his succulent sweat weird asf
I think I gasped and had my jaw dropped for a good 30 seconds when he licked her blood in the boat. I would be so fckn horrified, immediate NOPE, and would have gotten the fck out of there.

The daughter looks both 16 and 46 at the same time.
You didn't mention that the guy did a weird alien shake in the background before Libby confronted him at the edge of the lake, that's why he was dry. Also I think that Libby drove the car to the edge of the lake to use the lights to see into the lake better, not to leave.
He wasn't dry because of the shake, he was dry because it was another person all together.
@@velrex8140 That is a good idea but they very obviously show it wet in the background and then it shakes and then is dry.
Yeah, that alien shake was creepy AF
@@Rachael87254 but how does he magically shake the clothes he is wearing dry? i agree it was just a different version of him as shown late in the film
@@laurbster2680 you literally answered the question he’s a fucking alien 😭he shaked so fast he got dry
I think the intent of the family drama was to create a rift between mom and daughter, which would emphasize the mom not believing her daughter and that John is a “bad guy.” But because they make the mom and daughter close, the intent is moot. I think they couldn’t make up their mind how they wanted to define the mother-daughter relationship. Just my two cents.
I agree with this but I also think the portrayal is pretty accurate. I’m a daughter with a single parent mom and while I think she and I are very close there is also a lot of hurt from over the years so I do feel that this push and pull is realistic.
I agree. Plus, they never extend on the family drama, it’s just that one scene so it makes it seem like it was just thrown in. We get nothing else about the grandfather for the rest of the movie.
I thought about this and it would have been better if the riff came between the mom and daughter over John. Like the mom noticed that her daughter had a little crush; with the insecurity angles of the mom, the mom might slowly suspect or watch lib and John. I would have taken away the over-the-top creep factor for John, even play it where he comforts lib (appropriately) through her embarrassment for her period starting on the boat. That way you continue to show Lib is confused, and likes John even more despite him not showing her interest. It could even get to a point where Lib is the creep, and John explicitly states that he is marrying Mom and that Lib is too young and ahould find someone her age. Lib could have gotten mad at her mom for getting married (if they were hell bent on futher family dynamics, then have them be a recently widowed family).
Continue to follow Lib coming to terms her feelings about John as a new father figure vs her initial lust for him. Then when you think things are good have Lib do one more creep moment and keep the scene with John and the Mom. But now lib sees something wrong with John. Then start to pursue the pregnancy angle, but Lib is now reasonably standoffish, which makes the mom think it was about Lib finding out about the marriage and baby and not being able to move on.
Then have her in town and see the John double, now lib has more reason to actively try to get rid of John. As she gets further into investigation, the audience then sees that the mom was the subject of research, and the whole species thing can be shown. Not sure how to end it since they didn't give much in the original.
What’s funny is I thought the mom and daughter was going to end up being the aliens because they were acting hella weird and they both actually looked like aliens lol what a twist!
If you have seen it I would recommend Honeymoon 2014....
That would have been way more interesting!

This is definitely a case of “less is more.” Choosing to show bits of the monster & letting most of it being left to our own imagination was the right choice.

@@CYTRONBANDERS I could even make us some shirts
The fact that Mena Suvari is old enough to play a teenager's mother makes me feel old. It also doesn't help that she's hardly aged in 20 years.
I thought that’s who that was! It makes me feel old lol
Should I know her from something?
@@johnv6806 American Beauty
She has definitely aged naturally which is good
@@ariestarzga agree. You can definitely tell she's older but it's a natural older and not the weird Hollywood version of "older" . Glad she didn't get any crazy plastic surgery.
Sounds like John's anger about Michelle's age was directly connected to being unable to have more kids with her. Also, it seems his distress over the baby may be because the baby cannot breathe underwater until he gives it the blue orb.

The scariest thing is just how much I need these videos
I literally saw this THAT night before, looked for who explained it well, saw no one do it well, then u come thru like this 🤙🏾🐐 u're the best at this
I’ve legitimately been waiting for this, I watched the movie when it first came out on Netflix and almost immediately went straight to CZcams straight to your channel and all I got were a bunch of watered down explaining that left me almost more confused than I was to begin with.
7:13 "the critter that bit her" made me laugh and i dont know why
“What is briewing up in her gutty works” 😂 a king
I had to stop at 9 minutes because this looks good enough to watch. I always check these videos out before deciding to watch it. It's a big time saver.
Still awesome as always foundflix you’re doing great and I love your content
Didn't know what he was covering i just saw the notification and clicked
‘A BIG beefcake dude smolders his way out of the water’ XD
I hope you never stop making these kind of videos
I always find it off-putting when conventionally attractive 20-somethings get cast as “awkward teens” and all the filmmakers do to hide the actors’ good looks is give them a dorky haircut and glasses if they’re guys and baggy sweatshirts and minimal makeup if they’re girls.
So true😂
And tell them to act "sullen".
And in reality, the attractive women or men are hardly awkward
I mean, they can't cast someone too young for that role because it's kinda inappropriate.
She literally touched herself, it would very awkward to tell a real teenager to do that on camera or pretend to.
as soon as I finished this movie I was praying you would make sense of the terrible ending
Ayo keep pumping out vids bro I love them so much they get me through after a long day at school and work 😍😍😍
I really look forward to these videos ❤️ thanks FoundFlix
I appreciated the shout-out to "What Lies Beneath".😌
I love listening to your videos when I'm at work. I feel like I'm watching the movie with how well you explain them
I wish to express immense gratitude to your Chanel, it has helped me and still helping me through lockdown in my country, i binge watch your content and loved every single video , warm regards and lots of love from India.
Back here again to recommend an explained on Jacob’s Ladder👀
Jacob is dying the entire movie from a wound he got in war. He never actually makes it home. Hes experiencing battling his own demons and angels until he just accepts that hes going to die and chooses his son in a positive light as his last thought before leaving his body.
conrats on the 2M! Keep up the great work, sorry if I'm late!
Love all your reviews homie. Even movies I don’t like or I’ve seen I’ll still watch just because you make interesting and quality videos
"JACOB, KEEP YOUR SHIRT ON!!!"
"NO."

An ending explained of screamers from 95 or in the mouth of madness also from 1995 would be killer!
Screamers is such a classic movie. But I rather he cover In the Mouth of Madness. It was part of a trilogy, but I can't remember much else, except Sam Neil sitting in the movie theater laughing as he basically watches the whole movie on-screen. The Hellraiser series would be good too.

Good to see you man! Sick haircut!!
Was definitely confused at the end with this one. Glad you cleared that up along with a few things I missed.
Look, I love lampreys, I have loved them ever since I was a wee tot.
But "no other animal parasitises others in order to adapt" is, at best, incomprehensibly vague.
Lamprey eels suck blood. Some are filter-feeders, but the most famous ones are the blood-suckers.
They gain the same benefits from this as a leech does, there is nothing unique about it.
This does allow them to adapt, but in the same way as food allows any creature to adapt, that being allowing them to survive long enough to produce offspring.
They are very interesting animals, but what makes them unique is the combination of traits that they have, not the uniqueness of said traits.
A blood-sucking jawless fish that can migrate from saltwater to freshwater, and that has been relatively unchanged since before the Kellwasser event is not something to scoff at, but there is no need to make up vague attributes to it when it has so much to it already.
This is one of your funniest movie summaries ever. You’re so silly I love it 😂
