Well there are two types of scares, shock and tention, a jumpscare has shock value and isn't inherently bad, but on it's own it's only half of the equasion. A horror piece (film or game) needs both shock and tention to achieve good scares. Also jumpscares are obviously not the only way to achieve shock just the most convenient. A good example of a good use is when you raise the tention of the scene after the jumpscare instead of dispell it, that way it overloads the viewer and makes it less fleeting.
@@im2arrogant118 To me, horror is when what you're seeing makes you feel real emotions like dread or regret. Like when you see all the failed Ripley clones in Alien Resurrection or when Charlie dies in Hereditary and Peter goes home and waits for their mom's inevitable reaction.
@@reversalmushroom Regret isn't necessarily a 'scary' emotion and therefore doesn't fall under the same definition, but I get what you mean. Otherwise both examples fall under the tension category I mentioned. Shock is when an immediate reaction is elicited. Tension is when a feeling is being built up over time. Like I said, everything 'scary' falls under those 2 factors. Hereditary especially is incredibly adept at using tension, the scene you mentioned being a great example of it. I'm obviously simplifying my explanations here drastically as to not write a novel in a yt comment, but I hope I make enough sense.
The episode of Courage the Cowardly Dog where they parody The Exorcist and Muriel gets possessed is legitimately scarier than this movie, and that demon was defeated by a dog in a dress chanting "kick 'em in the dishpan, hoo hoo hoo".

@@SpinoRexy733 Oh, I agree 💯! The production company paid $400million simply for the right to THE EXORCIST to make a planned trilogy. This 1st film is getting terrible reviews and the box office numbers don't look promising. So they likely just threw away $400miilion!!
no it wouldnt lol sounds awful but idk if awful in a good way or bad way. they already tried something with sheen and it was terrible. the same thing would happen there
The biggest crime in this film is the total betrayal of Chris (Ellen Bs character) and Reagans relationship. After EVERYTHING they went through and the bond they made in the first film (even deeper in the book) it makes no sense to me that Chris would betray Reagan by going against her wishes to write that book. Furthermore such a massive thing is Chris' gratitude towards the two priests in The Exorcist, and then in this film she makes som joke about them upholding the patriarchy???
Interesting to see this comment (haven’t seen the new movie) because that’s something that also happened in the tv show, which I had thought they were retconning. I actually liked the tv show though
Of course they brought modern shit into this. I bet too that Angela is the black girl. As soon as I heard the choice clip in the trailer I knew the black girl would live cuz it’s impossible for her not to at this point in Hollywood. Wish none had to die but still thought it was funny I called it
You normies are still very clueless about the cul....al mar....m. its not modern...its good old mar.....st pro....da to flip over the natives society to take ov...er their coun....es. Ah ja..........so, so clueless......
Charlie mentioning the jumpscares where they're just talking or doing something mundane is definitely true, but I know exactly why they did it. Because the original did, but they missed the execution and the purpose. The original had scenes where the main character would be just lying down or talking to a doctor and they would subtly flash a frame of a demon, meant to represent that the demon who possessed them is present and make the viewer feel dread. But, of course, they didn't use a noise or overuse it. I actually love the Exorcist 3's big jumpscare of the movie, so I feel like there is a proper way to use them and this new one didn't know how.
This movie doesn't do it as strong as the original, but much of the flashing at least has to do with what they're discussing or relates somewhat to what's happening in the movie. And I think it keeps the viewer on edge and a little anxious, so long as they're willing to be invested in the movie they're watching. The flashing Imagery isn't used as good as the original, but a lot of this movie does what the original did well enough, and I think it's recieving too much flack for it
I saw Possum's review of it. "Why did the two priests that died to save your daughter didn't let you see the exorcism that would definitely traumatise you for life? Patriarchy". Patriarchy indeed, lol.
Please keep making content like this for people like me who will NEVER watch these movies but still like to be in the loop. These videos are better than the actual movie for me haha
My favorite bit of possession-related media to date is the Faith game series. You genuinely don't need millions of dollars to make a captivating horror experience.
Dude, the part when you're reading the note and it starts getting super twisted and horrible and goes off the rails, and when you finish and realize you're a horrid little crawling demon yourself... that part was so shocking that I started laughing out loud like I had been possessed! XD Faith is such a great series
The 3rd exorcist is fantastic, and is only called exorcist 3 because the studio changed the name. It’s directed by the author of the exorcist book and is based off his other stuff
I heard leslie odom jr was a good actor in it, and i feel like i've been hearing that a lot... reviewers say "this movie is absolute garbage which is a shame because [mildly well-known actor] did extremely well and this could have been their huge breakthrough moment into true mainstream stardom and now they have to find something else"
I lost all interest and hope in Horror movies a fair while ago. Nobody knows how to make a good horror movie anymore. They just pump out absolute CRAP. It's actually so sad because I use to LOVE the genre.
I just watched this movie, and let me just say that I was with a group of friends who all get easily scared, but while this movie was playing we were all giggling at how goofy the characters and editing were. Out of the whole film we agreed that the only successfully executed jump scare was the one with the snake (small 2 min long clip at the beginning, with no plot connection). It felt like this movie was the farthest thing from a horror movie ever.
the original exorcist also did the image thing where the picture of pazuzu would pop up on screen, but ofc in that movie it made sense and was only for a second, but that was them trying to capture the same spookiness
i have to ask what you thought of the original exorcist. when i saw the original in theatres (it was a fathom event a few years ago) i left the theatre legitimately trembling. it’s a masterpiece of suspense building and very rarely relied on any jumpscares. it took its time and i loved it.
Well he did say the original was the iconic horror film, the film that started it all. Seems like he thinks it deserves it's accolades. Exorcist II was one of the worst movies ever made though. If this one is worse, then it must be lethally bad.
Charlie! I met you last night and asked for a picture! I wanted to say something that I didn’t get a chance to say! People love you and your content because you’re genuine, have a great moral compass, and a great sense of humor. You don’t have a massive editing team behind you or anything. It’s just you, your camera, and your personality. I really do love it. I think there’s proof of that in your follower count but I just wanted to be able to say thank you! Thanks for letting my boys and I take that picture what a special moment.
Hollywood is terrified of letting established and complete franchises rest on their laurels and take chances on new IPs. Hopefully this L will be a lesson to them. They have to learn eventually that people arent just gonna show up for a movie just because they know it. You have to put in effort and actually create something good and worth showing up for.
I watched it with a few friends and the only chills and frights we got were the ac in the theater being probably set to max and my best friend almost hitting my face when he stretched his arms
The reason they used those flashing images was because, in the original, there are interlaced frames of disturbing images used to create a subliminal feeling of dread. They happen so quickly that the viewer hardly has time to register it. At some point, after the original was released, censorship laws made it illegal to use subliminal imagery/messaging in any form of media. Thats why they have to make it more apparent this time around.
I saw the movie just now and i thought it wasn't too bad, an obvious cash grab to bring the mother back. I really liked the ending where the demons tricked the parents and how only one of them survived. I thought it was going to be way worse; it wasn't.
Calling the demon "nothing but a nuisance" is such a good descriptor for it, lmaoo. After the demon pokes out the ladies' eyes, it goes, "If you want to see your daughter again, just open your eyes! Hahaha". Like.. what do these demons even want?? What's the point?? They never tell us. So, part of me always finds it funny that these demons just terrorize these families purely for the fun of it. I can never take it seriously.
I think in theory demons are just corrupt souls turned evil by being tortured in hell, so once they get out and start using humans bodies as vessels, they’re out for vengeance. They’re angry and just want to punish really anybody even if they had nothing to do with their damnation
Imagine if Charlie gets baked asf then goes on the internet and find something that he finds hilarious then hits record and talks about it for 9 minutes
the reason i love SAW so much, is because the movie makes you get attatched and understand all the characters while contributing to the stories big ending, and they only die at the end after youve gotten attatched, not killed immidietetly after a quick exchange lol
I literally forgot they were making another Exorcist movie until this video. And tbh I'm still wondering why the studio thought another Exorcist movie was gonna do well
honestly I just saw it and i think it suffers the most from just not knowing what its suppose to be. It tries to be so many things, and fails at all of them. Honestly just hilarious the amount of money seen dropped into this film to see blumhouse who is used to not trying but with low risk, actually take a gamble and fail so spectacularly
It's sad that the industry has become so oversaturated and only choosing to invest in shows or movies that are already established IPs. I hear it's so bad that scriptwriters have been going backward for a while to turn their script into a published book so that it may hopefully be adapted on screen.
I remember when I was around 11 or 12 and my mom finding out that I had spent $100 in in-app purchases, she found out when she was trying to check for notifications for a family communication app out of all the ways she could have found out. All the while I thought it was charging my bank account that my parents were keeping for savings.
17:53 even at $400 I don't think they could get their money back on the next two. as someone who likes to laugh at horror movies as entertainment (and also for thrill, depending on the quality), it offended me that this was neither GOOD nor bad enough to be fun to watch. It's just so boring, and I don't think i can respect this franchise anymore.
I've noticed similar concepts with the writing of this movie and for other shows/movies : the writers are doing whatever they want with 0 explanation. It's purely to move the story forward.
The name thing at least has actual mythological foundation. In a lot of older beliefs if you learn somethings True Name and speak it, it gives you a significant amount of power over the being. Even with humans those beliefs state that if you learn the name of someones soul you can control them
I ordered the gamer supps samples straight away, it's so cool they just send samples for free like gamer supps must be good or else there is no way they are not losing money for sending samples for free with free shipping
The funniest thing about this movie was the fact that the marketing was actually good, but they'd do it even during the day. Myself watching an NFL game with my 2 year old sitting next to me and all of a sudden she screams at the TV. xD WHAT WERE THEY THINKING.
Exorcist III is incredible tbh. The 2nd sucks but the 3rd is equally scary & well written as the first, even though it’s only loosely related to the first (Father Dyer & Kinderman)
The jump scares weren’t really jumpscares per se, they were tryna replicate pazuzus face popping up throughout the original movie. They didn’t do it well regardless but that’s what that was about.
If you're as tired of possession movies as Charlie is. Like him I'd recommend the movie "talk to me". It's really well made, the stakes feel like they matter and it's an accurate description of how powerless we'll be if a spirit in limbo is inside us.
@@771shadowolf Yes, but the main reason why people are tired of possession movies isn't the concept itself. Its because most of them are piles of garbage; so a good one would be a breath of fresh air.
I almost went to see this cause it seemed good, first "horror" movie in a long time. Friends I was making plans to go with went without me one weekend lmao...
13:25 that’s Rumplestiltskin and it’s actually a smart implication for a movie about exorcising demons. In biblical context, saying the creature’s name means you have power over it (think back to genesis when Adam was naming all the animals). That’s also why demons don’t say their name because they don’t want to give away their power to their victims.
This makes me sad man...my mom is a HUGE fan of the OG movie and is super excited to see this with her friend soon. I hope she isn't too disappointed:(
To be fair to the movie, a demon’s intention is not to kill someone. I think it makes sense that the demon would instead force the people to choose which girl will die, and allow them to suffer with that knowledge the rest of their lives
I couldn’t finish this vid it’s so unsurprising but sad that the legacy of every film has to be watered down for profit. Miss the days of a one-off banger
I think... from how you described it. Charle... the demon wanted the parents to damn themselves by making a selfish choice and thus earn a soul for hell by tainting it? *shrug* I guess that would be a win in the demon's book, considering they might have gotten bored with the whole possession.
You know a movie is bad when Charlie refuses to Moist Meter it and just trashes it in its own video instead.

Oh, I agree 💯! The production company paid $400million simply for the right to THE EXORCIST to make a planned trilogy. This 1st film is getting terrible reviews and the box office numbers don't look promising. So they likely just threw away $400miilion!!
That's hilarious. I would do that too If i were in her Position.
Probably donate the Money elsewhere tho
A movie about Hugh Neutron would unironically do amazing, probably.
Agreed.
no it wouldnt lol
sounds awful but idk if awful in a good way or bad way.
they already tried something with sheen and it was terrible. the same thing would happen there

Imagining getting the Exorcist rights and doing this with it lmao
0:33 nah I I bought a small island nation once it cost more.
The biggest crime in this film is the total betrayal of Chris (Ellen Bs character) and Reagans relationship. After EVERYTHING they went through and the bond they made in the first film (even deeper in the book) it makes no sense to me that Chris would betray Reagan by going against her wishes to write that book. Furthermore such a massive thing is Chris' gratitude towards the two priests in The Exorcist, and then in this film she makes som joke about them upholding the patriarchy???
"the patriarchy"? Oh now I'm ABSOLUTELY ELATED this movie flopped.
Interesting to see this comment (haven’t seen the new movie) because that’s something that also happened in the tv show, which I had thought they were retconning. I actually liked the tv show though
Of course they brought modern shit into this. I bet too that Angela is the black girl. As soon as I heard the choice clip in the trailer I knew the black girl would live cuz it’s impossible for her not to at this point in Hollywood. Wish none had to die but still thought it was funny I called it
You normies are still very clueless about the cul....al mar....m. its not modern...its good old mar.....st pro....da to flip over the natives society to take ov...er their coun....es. Ah ja..........so, so clueless......
I thought the different believes systems was strange. Idk feels like a weird rule
Charlie mentioning the jumpscares where they're just talking or doing something mundane is definitely true, but I know exactly why they did it. Because the original did, but they missed the execution and the purpose. The original had scenes where the main character would be just lying down or talking to a doctor and they would subtly flash a frame of a demon, meant to represent that the demon who possessed them is present and make the viewer feel dread. But, of course, they didn't use a noise or overuse it. I actually love the Exorcist 3's big jumpscare of the movie, so I feel like there is a proper way to use them and this new one didn't know how.
To quote Adum from his Oldboy review "Why are you showing it if the whole point of showing it isn't there!? Why!?"
This movie doesn't do it as strong as the original, but much of the flashing at least has to do with what they're discussing or relates somewhat to what's happening in the movie. And I think it keeps the viewer on edge and a little anxious, so long as they're willing to be invested in the movie they're watching. The flashing Imagery isn't used as good as the original, but a lot of this movie does what the original did well enough, and I think it's recieving too much flack for it
"good news is its over pretty fast"
Oh so its only an hour or hour and a half?
"Its 2 hours long"
WHAT?
I saw Possum's review of it. "Why did the two priests that died to save your daughter didn't let you see the exorcism that would definitely traumatise you for life? Patriarchy". Patriarchy indeed, lol.

My favorite bit of possession-related media to date is the Faith game series. You genuinely don't need millions of dollars to make a captivating horror experience.
Dude, the part when you're reading the note and it starts getting super twisted and horrible and goes off the rails, and when you finish and realize you're a horrid little crawling demon yourself... that part was so shocking that I started laughing out loud like I had been possessed! XD Faith is such a great series
Father Clarke locking himself in the basement with the demon and talking about how this is God’s work to the detective was actually insane.
I can't believe he said this about Iran
No free shipping to the EU for gamer Supps
The 3rd exorcist is fantastic, and is only called exorcist 3 because the studio changed the name. It’s directed by the author of the exorcist book and is based off his other stuff
It’s really great!
Yes. The original, and 3 are both great and those are the only two exorcist movies you need.
is that the one that has the greatest jump scare in any movie? The one in the hospital hallway
@@Slothhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhyes it's that one
Exorcist 3 is probably my favorite of the series. Definitely in contention atleast.
Bless you for your sacrifice Charlie. As if I needed anymore reason to not watch the dumpster fire I knew this movie was gonna be
Bruh I did the house based on this movie at HHN and I was like wtf is happening?
I could tell from the spam of goofy commercials that this movie was going to be cheeks, lmao.
Movie's actually great I don't know what movie everyone else saw.
I heard leslie odom jr was a good actor in it, and i feel like i've been hearing that a lot... reviewers say "this movie is absolute garbage which is a shame because [mildly well-known actor] did extremely well and this could have been their huge breakthrough moment into true mainstream stardom and now they have to find something else"
I lost all interest and hope in Horror movies a fair while ago.
Nobody knows how to make a good horror movie anymore.
They just pump out absolute CRAP.
It's actually so sad because I use to LOVE the genre.
I just watched this movie, and let me just say that I was with a group of friends who all get easily scared, but while this movie was playing we were all giggling at how goofy the characters and editing were. Out of the whole film we agreed that the only successfully executed jump scare was the one with the snake (small 2 min long clip at the beginning, with no plot connection). It felt like this movie was the farthest thing from a horror movie ever.
I don't know, the ending scene of the girl dying made my heart race, that shits terrifying if you think about the concept.
So it’s just like the original exorcist boring not scary Bs
the original exorcist also did the image thing where the picture of pazuzu would pop up on screen, but ofc in that movie it made sense and was only for a second, but that was them trying to capture the same spookiness
For sure. It would only happen when Pazuzus influence was peaking or creeping in.
That image of Pazuzu still haunts my nightmares.
This should make anyone feel better if they've ever spent on something they shouldn't have.
i have to ask what you thought of the original exorcist. when i saw the original in theatres (it was a fathom event a few years ago) i left the theatre legitimately trembling. it’s a masterpiece of suspense building and very rarely relied on any jumpscares. it took its time and i loved it.
Well he did say the original was the iconic horror film, the film that started it all. Seems like he thinks it deserves it's accolades. Exorcist II was one of the worst movies ever made though. If this one is worse, then it must be lethally bad.
@@avian_donn3369 Exorcist II at least has some really nice cinematography and a score by Ennio Morricone. More than you can say about this.
Charlie! I met you last night and asked for a picture! I wanted to say something that I didn’t get a chance to say! People love you and your content because you’re genuine, have a great moral compass, and a great sense of humor. You don’t have a massive editing team behind you or anything. It’s just you, your camera, and your personality. I really do love it. I think there’s proof of that in your follower count but I just wanted to be able to say thank you!

Hollywood is terrified of letting established and complete franchises rest on their laurels and take chances on new IPs. Hopefully this L will be a lesson to them. They have to learn eventually that people arent just gonna show up for a movie just because they know it. You have to put in effort and actually create something good and worth showing up for.
Hollywood taking massive Ls because of lazy nostalgia bait is hilarious to me, lol.
It's like Hollywood is out of ideas, so it just recycles old ones.
They should be afraid of all the money they're losing on big budget movies, yet they greenlight that shit all the time.
“don’t have to pay a shipping price” yes you do don’t waste your time 💀
I watched it with a few friends and the only chills and frights we got were the ac in the theater being probably set to max and my best friend almost hitting my face when he stretched his arms
3:10 don’t save your time, you’ll pay $4.20 for shipping on free samples
ong cringe he lied
The reason they used those flashing images was because, in the original, there are interlaced frames of disturbing images used to create a subliminal feeling of dread. They happen so quickly that the viewer hardly has time to register it.
At some point, after the original was released, censorship laws made it illegal to use subliminal imagery/messaging in any form of media. Thats why they have to make it more apparent this time around.
He
The result in the 1rst one was amazing!!!
Please point to said laws.
@@arglebargle5531 google exists homie, stop being lazy and do it yourself
This is just a flat out lie.
I saw the movie just now and i thought it wasn't too bad, an obvious cash grab to bring the mother back. I really liked the ending where the demons tricked the parents and how only one of them survived. I thought it was going to be way worse; it wasn't.
What it sounds like is that the movie was so bad that the antagonist walked out of the theater.
Calling the demon "nothing but a nuisance" is such a good descriptor for it, lmaoo.
After the demon pokes out the ladies' eyes, it goes, "If you want to see your daughter again, just open your eyes! Hahaha".
Like.. what do these demons even want?? What's the point?? They never tell us. So, part of me always finds it funny that these demons just terrorize these families purely for the fun of it. I can never take it seriously.
They just wanted to do a little trolling, a few goofs and pranks.
Lmao Imagine one of them is about to get exorcised and they go "it's just a prank bro"
The worst kind of villains are the ones that do it for shit's and giggles.
@@SpinoRexy733 That demon was going through its Joker arc, lol.
I think in theory demons are just corrupt souls turned evil by being tortured in hell, so once they get out and start using humans bodies as vessels, they’re out for vengeance. They’re angry and just want to punish really anybody even if they had nothing to do with their damnation
Imagine if Charlie gets baked asf then goes on the internet and find something that he finds hilarious then hits record and talks about it for 9 minutes

12:25 so here in México there is a belief that if something moves in your house (possibly a demon) you have to cuss it out your house firmly 😂😅
You know its boring when you constantly zone out of even charlies description of the movie
honestly I just saw it and i think it suffers the most from just not knowing what its suppose to be. It tries to be so many things, and fails at all of them. Honestly just hilarious the amount of money seen dropped into this film to see blumhouse who is used to not trying but with low risk, actually take a gamble and fail so spectacularly
Well, the gamble was if the Exorcist franchise in name would be enough to sucker people into the theatres.
It's sad that the industry has become so oversaturated and only choosing to invest in shows or movies that are already established IPs. I hear it's so bad that scriptwriters have been going backward for a while to turn their script into a published book so that it may hopefully be adapted on screen.
And then their work gets bastardized to fit the strict criteria of making the most money, anyway, and the cycle continues.
They'd be better off making their story into a Garry's Mod map.
@@SpinoRexy733 The fact that you are 100% right is incredibly sad.
I liked the ending where love did what faith did not. That was a nice twist.
I remember when I was around 11 or 12 and my mom finding out that I had spent $100 in in-app purchases, she found out when she was trying to check for notifications for a family communication app out of all the ways she could have found out. All the while I thought it was charging my bank account that my parents were keeping for savings.
And they wonder why SAG is on strike, because this is one of the reasons, they waste millions on shows and movies that turns out to be terrible
They're not striking because the writers suck. Lol
SAG sucks. Good riddance
17:53 even at $400 I don't think they could get their money back on the next two. as someone who likes to laugh at horror movies as entertainment (and also for thrill, depending on the quality), it offended me that this was neither GOOD nor bad enough to be fun to watch. It's just so boring, and I don't think i can respect this franchise anymore.
Charlie should put these two instruments on his wall backdrop to serve as a constant reminder to what could have been
I've noticed similar concepts with the writing of this movie and for other shows/movies : the writers are doing whatever they want with 0 explanation. It's purely to move the story forward.
The name thing at least has actual mythological foundation. In a lot of older beliefs if you learn somethings True Name and speak it, it gives you a significant amount of power over the being. Even with humans those beliefs state that if you learn the name of someones soul you can control them
What's truly scary is someone actually said "yes this is our story, we're going with this"
I ordered the gamer supps samples straight away, it's so cool they just send samples for free like gamer supps must be good or else there is no way they are not losing money for sending samples for free with free shipping

I got a pocket trumpet in middle school. I was already a trumpet player, so I used the pocket trumpet for travelling
The jump scares weren’t really jumpscares per se, they were tryna replicate pazuzus face popping up throughout the original movie. They didn’t do it well regardless but that’s what that was about.

13:25 that’s Rumplestiltskin and it’s actually a smart implication for a movie about exorcising demons. In biblical context, saying the creature’s name means you have power over it (think back to genesis when Adam was naming all the animals). That’s also why demons don’t say their name because they don’t want to give away their power to their victims.
Also, demons can only possess a person if they allow it either consciously or unconsciously.
Everything needs TO BE UNDER A FRANCHISE TO EXIST.
Why.

I saw that Ice King Charlie meme and now I’m freaking out cause I swear parts of Charlie’s face are turning gray in this video
To be fair to the movie, a demon’s intention is not to kill someone. I think it makes sense that the demon would instead force the people to choose which girl will die, and allow them to suffer with that knowledge the rest of their lives
I couldn’t finish this vid it’s so unsurprising but sad that the legacy of every film has to be watered down for profit. Miss the days of a one-off banger
The demon when you speak to it sternly: OH NO MY WORST ENEMY! ASSERTIVENESS!
That quote by william friedkin that was taken down was hilarious.
I think... from how you described it. Charle... the demon wanted the parents to damn themselves by making a selfish choice and thus earn a soul for hell by tainting it? *shrug* I guess that would be a win in the demon's book, considering they might have gotten bored with the whole possession.
