the decapitation scene was unbelievably terrifying, how peter just goes home and lies in bed waiting for her body to be found, it was such good writing displaying the feeling of an unfixable event
director is a genius, he scared us without any cheap jumpscares..
yea, hereditary was really good,now these so called "horror movies" are just depending on cheap jumpscares scattered throughout the film to make it less blant and boring
is it shown in this video bc i wanna know what happens but i also can't go thru that again xD
It's so insane because the accident was scary but the moments waiting to hear the parents screams was so much worse
I agree. I've never seen a scene like that before. All the grief and horror and regret in a perfect scene
That poor father didnt even have a chance
The father? What about Peter? The dude was born to be a pawn. Or even worse young Charlie born to die horribly.
The scene where she was trying to get him to burn the book and the realization that she was trying to manipulate him... Shit man, that's cold hearted but then again you couldn't really trust her the whole movie anyway.
He was annoyingly stupid though, I mean I am not a believer but if I see all this supernatural signs then I will work my brain instead of shutting it down..
@@gostavoadolfos2023 I don't know man if my wife was tripping out like that im taking my son and were gone

Maybe its hereditary. Maybe its Maybelline.
Wow, that took no time at all! Thank you!

This movie begs one of the most important questions to human life: "hey Annie are you okay?"

They try to summon Paimon, they get Michael Jackson instead. Now the kids are really in trouble
**insert Michael Jackson’s song** “Annie are you ok, are you ok, are you ok Annie you’ve been hit by, you’ve been struck by, a smooth criminal”
@@robynsegg HE WAS POSSESSED ALL ALONG! it all makes sense now!
Took a date to watch this movie at midnight...we haven't spoken since that day.
Javier Chavez I watched this on the first date with my now girlfriend all the while thinking she was hating it and I should have picked some fluff blockbuster.
Turns out she loves horror and I think I love her.
rhys瑞斯 sllllllooooooowwwww down buddy don’t tell her you love her yet. If you really do.
rhys瑞斯 even if u really love her don’t ever tell a girl that u really lover her cos that when she gon make u feel like u nothing and that’s when u gon start to feel like u buggin
Hungry kid from Africa well that’s kinda true if you do it too fast or if you smother her with your “love”. A lot of times when thats the case you’re doing that because your subconscious realizes that the girl isn’t so much in to you and you feel a panic to get her to feel the same as you. But it’s not actual love it’s more of infatuation or an obsession with having her for yourself and not being a fool. When you actually love someone they will have to care for and love you too because love isn’t so much of a overwhelming feeling or a burst of emotion like the sun exploding it’s more like the sun rising slowly but steadily and growing brighter and brighter. I know sounds cheesy as fuck but I’ve been through a lot of relationships where we were both just infatuated with each other and those relationships are hell. Always trying to force the other one to be something they aren’t trying to make them that person your brain got infatuated and obsessed with. Just be real as fuck and don’t jump in to saying you love them because a too nice chick will pretend she loves you to or think she does when she doesn’t, a mean chick will take advantage of it. But a good girl or the right one will most likely not be in a relationship with you because you’re not ready. The high school sweat heart thing is gone out the window with the 50’s and 60’s. Girls are a wild breed but so are young people in general. But who am I to stop you go tell those girls you love them and see what happens you got to live and learn and maybe you get lucky first or second shot. Good luck to you.
So, nothing clicked? I'll see myself out.
I was emotionally stressed for the 2 hours and 7 min run-time of this movie.
It hit me when I was trying to sleep
Same here. I have never felt such a physical reaction to a film since watching Alien as a teenager at a friend's house and walking (running) home in the early hours of the morning.
I was emotionally distressed for the 13 minutes of this CZcams video
I know what you mean....I am exhausted after watching it...
All my friends and I can confirm that the film did a great job of not only psychologically but also physically draining the viewer.
Before Peter smashes his face into his desk in school he raises his hand in a weird fashion. If you look closely his hand is in the same form as Paimon’s staff on the statue at the end. Super creepy!
D u d e , you have a nice eye
I noticed this too, one of the craziest parts of the movie. Theres actually tons of these little easter egg finds in this one
I could tell you about 20 Easter eggs you never had a clue about, the hand was a easy one.
@@kygodragon4782 ooh! Pleease do 🙌
KygoDragon4 do you want a cookie? What did you gain by down playing what he noticed
I never got the vibe that Annie was a witch, just an innocent pawn in her mother's game.
She wore the cult necklace to her mothers funeral.
@@donniev8181 But did she know what it was or was it because it was her mother’s?
@@januarysson5633 but her mother was wearing the same necklace so she had to have her own; however I also am super confused about wether or not she had any idea what she was doing!
@@ScrapBaby83 That’s what is confusing. Did Annie wear her mother’s necklace or did she have her own? It seemed from Annie’s eulogy of her mother at the funeral when she spoke of her as having many secrets that she didn’t know about the cult.
@@januarysson5633 - I'm sure Annie was just a pawn. If I'm not mistaken, she said that symbol was the family crest. Something that was created long before her and her mother. She probably got it as a gift and just wore it.
Charlie getting decapitated was honestly one of the most fucked up scenes I have ever witnessed in film. All the marketing made it seem like she would be the main character, not Peter, which made her death that much more shocking. It's just wonderfully acted. The way Alex Wolfe just lays in his bed and cries, Toni Collette loses her shit, and the image of Charlie's head covered in fire ants. Fuck man that shit was nuts
Mehh
It really effected me one of the most shocking films of all time, Ari Aster took the horror film to new ground with this like when Jordan Peele did it with Get Out
The scene of Charlie’s head with the ants had me fucked up
I feel bad because I was hysterically laughing during that scene and most of the movie . Afterwards we watched We're the Millers but I still thought this movie was funnier.
There’s way more disturbing fucked up scenes than a kid getting their head popped off by a tree on accident… just saying.
I love the fact that the movie made me question if all the weird things that happened were real or if all the paranormal things were result of the family being mentally ill. Until the father (only "sane" character up to that point) literally went up in flames. Kind of destroyed my "it's a hereditary mental illness" theory I had at the beginning.
Well, it's possible that we're just seeing it through Annie's eyes: if she's mentally ill, then... Don't forget she almost set her children on fire while sleepwalking.
I felt like even watching him go up in flames the mother still could have lit him on fire. From an outside prospective if the cops woulf have shown up they would have assumed she did.
@@angelicalavender9573 I fully believed this was a horror movie about mental illness. Even, like you said, I thought Annie lit him on fire.
I felt exactly the same
@@1tbspjasmine but she had her back to him many feet away when he caught fire. And he and the son witnessed the glass move and there were just too many other things imo for it to have been just mental illness. Like her levitating and cutting off her own head and her and her mother's headless bodies bowing in the attic or treehouse rather.
The end really stuck with me. There's something about the juxtaposition of the really serene heavenly music and warm light, with the rotting head of Charlie and the decapitated corpses that just seared itself into my mind. Everything just falls into place in that final scene and it's also very reminiscent of Rosemary's Baby. And don't even get me started on the car sequence. That is one of the most disturbing things I have seen in a very long time, and it involves nothing supernatural, no demons, no stalkers, just humanity. You just feel the absolute dread Peter feels, and the complete denial, unable to look into the back seat, just trying to convince himself that it's okay, that nothing really happened.
that car scene was fuckkked uppp
@@danielvillalobos4265 OMG YES. That scene ALONE is worth the price of admission into this movie, the acting of the woman playing Annie is just WOW...and ofc there's peter, just that whole scene with him just there silent, not knowing what to do now. just...the whole thing sunk so deep, i swear it'll haunt me more than any other movie ever did.
It got me thinking about types of people and trauma. What would a person do if they had just killed someone like that? Well, we know hit and runs are super common. Hell, Beto O'Rourke hit someone and drove off, and he was already rich enough to dodge the consequences.
The important thing, is that the kid didnt drive off in a panic. He deliberately buried the event as it happened, pushing his thoughts into a hole in his mind. Only someone who cares would do that, since they arent hiding the accident. They are only psychologically delaying the inevitable in preparation of the grief and hurt they caused. Maybe that's cowardice, but it sure as hell isnt evil.
Whats worse about the music at the end is if you look up the king of hell paimon you read that when he comes he is usually followed by a group of people playing music. Trumpets specifically. Just like in the music at the end. It's beautiful and dark. Like watching a sunrise in hell.
The same thing happens in the witch, the end is warm and with heavenly music while being a happy end for the source of horror of the family.
I love the pacing of movies like Hereditary & Midsommer. They take their time, slowly building to the horror & aren't filled with cheap jump scares. It harkens back to classics like Poltergeist where you're truly invested in the characters & the story is just as essential as the scares
i feel like sometimes it can be too drawled out and it becomes annoying 🥲 at least that’s what i felt during this movie
@@Gabyrinconavila some things aren't for everyone
@@youwereonceacreampie260 def agree but i did like this movie and i only felt like that maybe 2-3 times during the middle of it but i was getting really into it at the end !!

Edit: Thank you for the love guys. I still get creeped out by this movie 2 years after the comment and my viewing.
I just finished it and I'm starting to question if I could lowkey be possessed. Ugh what an effect. I wish I could unwatch it
Rachel E. That’s what happened to me. Then I remembered that I can knock Payman out
Poke'mon Trainer Chri$$$ 303 I did too. I felt like I was apart of a ritual. Had to pray afterwards. Felt dirty and wrong.
@@yakiralovesall it just gave me a boner
@@guywithdreads knock him out? Lol how so
The scene where the dad almost ran a red light was such a heart breaking scene for me I actually cried. It's like you could see his greif where he could've have just been in an accident and the worry of that happening with his son in the car just set him over the edge like it was just a subtle reminder that what happened was a horrible accident that could happen at any moment and there was so much stress on the family at that point to where the dad started protecting his son from his mother. Oof the feels I can't even explain
The most horrific moment happens offscreen. Peter drives home, shocked after Charlies' death, then walks upstairs and goes to bed. The next morning, he lays in bed and hears his parents chatting, and then the pained screams of his mother as she discovers Charlie's decapitated body still in the car. Toni Collette was phenomenal.
My question is: will there be any sort of afterlife reward for Annie, Charlie and Ellen, who paid with their heads to bring about Paimon's return?
If you can call burning in hell for all eternity a 'reward,' then yeah, they're absolutely gonna be rewarded.
Unfortunately for them, grandma sold their souls to the devil without asking for their permission on the matter, so she could give Paimon what he needed - a male body to inhabit.
Poor Charlie lost her soul so she could host Paimon while Granma set everything up with the cult.
Then Charlie loses her head so she can be the first of the three decapitated heads Paimon needs as part of the ritual for his ascension.
Then Annie hosts him a bit, until Peter is ready. She cuts off her own head to be number two.
The cult dug up granma to be the final severed head, and they're all in the treehouse for the final scene, where it all comes together and Paimon is served.
Now...well there's one of Satan's soldiers striding up and down upon the earth.
There's no possible way for that to be a good thing, I don't think.
The best way to deal with naked cultists in your house is with a shotgun and this movie amply demonstrates that.
And children are clearly as prone to demonic possession as they are to contract a common cold, for crying out loud.
That Scene was Something Else... Peter just laying in Bed Traumatized Waiting for the moment the Body is found... Disturbing
Lee Debo how could Annie finish severing her own head? Wouldn’t she be paralyzed after a certain portion of the spinal cord was severed?
@@TheRobWay1 it's a horror film about something that does not actually exist; the explanation is that she was simply possesed and not tied to the physical realm anymore
Mdi223 possessed yes, but superhuman? Next you’re going to tell me that she could fly ? Oh wait..
this movie messed me up. that ending creeped me out so bad.
@Genji Main I would hate being you, never feeling fear. Horror movies must be a complete bore, why even watch it?
@@djangounchained9387 he's just trying to flex his internet muscles
The ending was amazing
I'm with you. I went to bed so freaked out. I'm still thinking about it now and can't stop arrrgghhhh lol. Great movie. I can't wait to freak my neice and nephews out with it!! Hahaha
I watched this movie like 3 times. It still does not frighten me. The only part that was nasty was when she found charlies body in the car and they showed her head, but even that got old quick lol.
“Women...can’t live with em...can’t be legit vessel for King Paimon..”

@@danielvillalobos4265 Wrong, he's a strong male with an effeminate face. It is specifically stated that he is male.

Paimon was also known to ride a camel. That's what I thought the clucking noise was referencing.
I thought it sounded like a camel.
Joshua Hamilton that’s a clever observation.
So Charlie’s brother is riding her? Quite incest if you ask me
You are correct. Paimon is known to ride a camel so the clicking was sort of a tic.
What does the clicking sound have to do with a camel
Man I just watched this and I feel like i need to apologize to God right now
It's ok
I did
@@bohicainmuas2541 same here
There's a big open field surrounded by trees behind my house and every time I go out I don't look that way because I am absolutely convinced that once I do, I'll see some old ass lady surrounded by fire.

I would probably be the same way 😶
Lol
Imagine the casting call for that little girl. "Sorry your daughter is not creepy enough."
That could be taken as a compliment though lol
@@obseed3041 perhaps
@Dr. Buster Cheeks, Vaccinologist Stanford only a mother can love🤣🤣
@Dr. Buster Cheeks, Vaccinologist Stanford rude 😭
I follow her on tiktok, and i found out that he only booked her because she looked disturbing and how that made her doubt any roles she plays because it makes her think they just cast her beacuse how weird she looks
Tony Collette should've won an Oscar for her reaction to her daughters' death. That part was agonizing to watch, but in a good way. Because she MADE me feel what she was feeling.
As paimon is often depicted riding a camel it’s truly unsettling when you realize the clicking sound Charlie does is to mimic the sound of a camels strut
except it isnt
@@ahabduennschitz7670 Yeah. I thought the click was just some weird birdlike quirk.
Nah that's a stretch
They didn’t use the actual seal of Paimon, which was disappointing. I guess the people on set were a little bit too superstitious…
Oh my god it is-
Being brought up in a Catholic household and also being a believer, that last scene, with the statue of Paimon and Charlie's head, looked eerily similar to what Jesus looks like, but in a demented form. It creeped the fck out of me and honestly was the one thing that stuck to me.
Same -- I felt attacked in a way- In a weird way 👁👁
It's reminiscent of society today, preaching tolerance and acceptance while welcoming degeneracy and evil.
Ngl, the whole time I was just thinking to myself “call a priest” like seriously
@@bannaxe7338 ding ding ding ding.
Remember that in your bones.
@@samuelcaballero9966 how could a priest even deal with that though? Pretty sure kings of hell are outside their pay grade
Ah man I love this movie. Charlie's death was one of the most shocking out-of-nowhere deaths I've ever seen. Right up there with Eddard Stark. I think I might watch it again soon. Thanks for the video! Your love of your craft is evident as ever! 👍
Well that's unfair. You could assume Ned would die, he's played by Sean Bean!
Really? I knew the whole family was going to die from the moment Annie wanted to leave Joanie's seance with her grandson and Joanie said "I'll be right back Louis!" The seance gone wrong with Annie and her family proved it. That family is too fucked up for anything to go right.
R.I.P. Eddard. I was so sad when Charlie died 😢
I felt so bad fr Charlie...but got to pity the older brother too. He thought he was doing the right thing driving his sister to the hospital
I was caught off guard by that and at first I didnt think she was decapitated so when they showed the scene with her head laying on the road full of bugs i was genuinely shocked and felt kinda sick at first
Definitely one of my favorites. I was definitely shocked when Charlie died, I wasn't expecting it at all. But just goes to show that you can make a successful horror movie without jumpscares.
I finally watched this movie just now. I don't like scary movies but I like good stories. My sis promised no jump scares, just mental screwing and she was right. I covered my mouth in gasp so many times and the actresses who plays the mom is SO talented. I felt her distress, panic and pain.
No jump scares? I jumped out of my seat when the mum started chasing Peter into the attic 🤣
@@andycarmichael8159 1 jump scare I guess?
watching the movie with headphones, charlie's fkn mouth clicks are the biggest jumpscares lmao
the grandma inside the room full of miniatures is a jumpscare
When a movie dares to show a decaying head of underaged girl, you know it went totally off the limit.
What? It's just a movie, art shouldn't be restricted.
@@unkouwnfigure2746
I respect the creative freedom of filmmakers.
Most of mainstream films won't dare to even show a child getting killed on-screen (some film like John Carpenter's Assault on Precinct 13 in the past nearly got x-rating for doing so), but Hereditary broke the taboo and proved it has nothing to hide.
I just thought that makes this film so special.
@@user-gm8ds7lc1t agreed
I think it was just a way to get a similar feeling that a jump scare would give, and it actually disgusted me.
It's just a head bro
I’m not even joking when I say that this movie terrified me. And not because of the contents of the film, but because I SWEAR I could hear Charlie’s tongue click outside of the movie.
I was hearing lots of strange noises that I usually shrug off, but this movie made me jump at all of them
Me too! I swear I heard it later that night while I was trying to sleep
I was imitating the tongue click everytime I heard it on the movie lol
It's the camel u fool!
Watching this movie with a bad TV with lighting was too scary
Ready for the mosh pit shaka brah
Ann Dowd's shining moment for me was the illustration of abject horror & terror on her face as her husband was immolated by Paimon, quickly transitioning to a smarmy satisfied look as Paimon possessed her body. She reminded me a lot of Shelly Duvall's performance in Kubrick's 'The Shining.'
Sorry I meant Tony Collette!
I personally think Shelly Duvall overacted in The Shining. To me, if she toned her acting down just a bit, what she was trying to convey would have been more believable for me.
@@btter710 given how many takes Kubrick demanded for each scene, for him to ultimately settle on the takes which comprise the movie, I’d say any “overacting” was probably purposeful, and by his direction
Ironically that you mentioned Ann Dowd...she is a FANTASTIC actress that I've always loved! She usually plays minor roles though and in t.v. shows. I wish she was in more movies.
I wouldn't call this an "explained" video as much as I'd call it literally just saying what the plot is.
A lot of people didnt get the plot, so i get why he had to explain it. It was a lot to take in and small details
I mean, he explained the plot. Sounds like an explained video to me. Fucking simpleton
That's why i watch this channel.
I don't get to watch movies often.
when i watched the movie i had no idea wtf the last scene was. tbh i didn't even know the head was charlie actual head. I thought it was some weird doll nor the hand gesture was some jesus hand sign that upside down. None of that was told in the movie.
Put a shirt on!
This just confirms my fears, never trust kids in movies! Btw love the new intro
Never trust kids in general.. have you seen Children of the Corn??
SMF F or trust the child, have you ever seen Child’s Play? Dolly Dearest?
@@yakiralovesall don't forget the new movie Protege movie
Kids are evil, be careful around them...
Toni Colette's performance in Hereditary was worthy of an Oscar. It may be of interest to some that the movie has been deemed the scariest horror film. A scientific study of people's heartbeats per minute while watching a variety of horror flicks has proven it to be # 1 at 115 bpm! A slow and steady building of tension.
I read that but I also read the same thing about Sinister. This movie didn't scare me really....it had very creepy imagery and stuff and was good but I just didn't get it keeping people up at night. To each his own though.
"Her husband, who is also her psychiatrist."
Demon possession is one thing, but a basic ignorance of real world ethics immediately kills my suspension of disbelief.
I don't think he was her personal psychiatrist, but he was her husband, so naturally he would show his concern for her by steering her into things that would help her emotionally (like the grief group), and give her empathetic guidance (like after her mother's funeral, he told her what she felt was what she needed to feel, and to be herself). We saw no therapy sessions, just a supportive husband.
Might want to look up Lawrence Pazder, dude divorced his wife to marry his patient whom he wrote the book that set off the Satanic panic with.
Nowhere in the film does it tell us that he is HER psychiatrist. That's this narrator guy's assumption
I haven't seen the film, so I don't exactly know the relationship as both partner and therapist. But geezuz dude, if you think psychiatrists all absolutely offer NOTHING of their vocation to their relatives, you are living in the fantasy world, my friend. I speak with nearly 25 years experience....
CZA Exactly. The narrator not only fucks that up but adds absolutely nothing to our understanding of the film. Why some people's stuff is popular is completely beyond me
When i worked for a movie theater we had people leave this movie wanting refunds for it being too scary haha.
I wanted a refund coz it was so shit!! However, I'm too scared to watch Midsommar
@@melissawright1979 watch it I just did
@@vampdem0n614 It has people burning and I can't deal with that
@@melissawright1979 Karen
I love that
Recently became a big fan of the movie and this channel. The timing of this video is too perfect
Is worth noting that the seance Annie was taught is incorrectly made. She didn't learn how to prevent other spirits from joining and she never closed the seance. It means Paimon could easily join and stay with the family
that stuff isn’t real
@@JBoy5680 yeh it’s a movie brother 🤝
The seance was a ruse. Joan was tricking Annie into performing a ritual to invoke paimon was my understanding . Joan didn't even have a kid or grand kid.
There are two moments in this movie that really stuck with me.
Charlie's death and the discovery of her body was like a knife in the gut. I truly hesitated on keep watching a movie for the first time in my life.
And then the scene when Peter sits on the bed and then you see the mother behind. Oh boy. That scared the hell out of me. That's true horror. And without a single jumpscare.
A great horror movie.
I'm with you 100 percent. In my teen years i exposed myself to a lot of internet gore and horrifying movies (regret it now but oh well lol) including a movie called "a Serbian film" which i wont even describe. I would consider myself jaded and desensitized to movies But the decapitation scene, annie finding the body, and Annie's hysterical crying and screaming saying she "doesn't want to live" legitimately induced a minor anxiety attack in me. I had to take deep breathes. 🤷♂️
So true. And as someone who has lost a child myself I can tell you her reaction was 100% accurate. I lost my shit during that scene and at the funeral.
Since Toni Colette is so incredible in this and also one of the most famous cast members in the film, I feel like she overshadowed Alex Wolfe a bit. His performance was absolutely flawless, heartbreaking and just overall unbelievably amazing, especially for his age. People don’t seem to talk about it much, but I think he was just a s good as Toni in this film and one of the best actors I’ve seen in a very long time
I debated on seeing this movie for a while now I think I should have seen it, by the way is the thing from that movie “Mama” on the list?
Yeh you should still watch it and yes mama is on the list, thanks smiler :)
I just made a video essay on the complexity of this movie a few weeks ago.
Awesome dude!
H2Mass cool good for you.
I'll watch
I just ejaculated.
@@R3IsL that is the correct response
Took me two yrs to watch this and I think I could’ve waited longer. 😂
took me 5 years to watch, i was so anxious i put it off. i could’ve waited longer too
I just found it with a friend on netflix while we were having a dumb horror movie marathon, didn’t realize it was so popular or good. It surprisingly made me incredibly unsettled, the mom was the worst part, everything about her made me feel uncomfortable
Awesome movie, a hidden gem among the mundane recycled garbage running through the mainstream of today, loved this movie, definitely recommend if you like to be creeped out and fascinated and have knowledge on demonology and the occult
Love the video FCE!
Exactly. I agree to the last word with you.
Sadly i wasnt scared ugh
Saw it yesterday, couldnt sleep.
I think it's too demonic I had to stop watching 😂😂🚫
I didn’t find this movie scary just extremely disturbing the ending was off-putting for me and the scary part took a bit too long to get to for me
Same I agree, took way too long to develop
The ending was kinda meh, but the movie itself is super disturbing and chilling
Same here
This was the best movie I had seen in several years- except of course, rewatching classics from decades earlier. No other movie had stayed with me for so long, with its disturbingly brilliant imagery. Thanks for this video.
One of the greatest horror films ever. No overexaggerated music and jump scares. Its a well paced film.
I love how peter does what any of us would have done in that situation in the attic, which is jump out of the window
Yeah lol, I was thinking about the window all the time lol
great video love you’re videos man keep up the good work
Never noticed Charlie's head was on top of the mannequin at the very end, now I'm even more disturbed by this movie than I already was :|
This movie literally put me into a soft shock for like a day or two of how unsettling it was, no modern horror film has ever made me feel that way >.>
Thank you for covering this film!
I was waiting for you to do this, buddy!
Something to go back and look for...
after they return home from the funeral, if possible, turn up the volume and you can hear footsteps and noises coming from the attic. The family never notices this...the audience either, until now.
Also, some great attention to detail. At the end of the movie, you can see the maggots crawling around and within Ellen's body and when the camera pans to Annie's decapitated body, you can see her fingers twitch on her right hand. It's very slight but it is very noticeable once you see it. It's pretty amazing
I love how your explanations are no bullshit, straight to the point.
You aren't trying to practice stand up comedy material or trying to make me think you're some "special, creepy person" or that you're life experience is "SO UNIQUE" to everyone that may view your video.
You just talk about the topic you chose in a thorough, intelligent and detailed manner.
thank you
I’m sorry but while watching the film I was making fun of the dad the entire time.
“Steve you don’t deserve this”
“Steve noooooaaaaaaaugh”
“Steve, shoulda burned the book Steve.”
“S T E V E”
STOP😭😭😭
I've been waiting for this video!! I loved this movie and I couldn't wait to hear your thoughts!
Something I noticed with the imagery of this film. There was a few scenes where peters eyes were red. The first time was after he smoked weed/was in shock over the death of Charlie. Next was when Annie was in the treehouse with the red lighths from the heaters reflecting on his eyes. And the third when possessed Peter goes into the treehouse and his eyes become blood shot. Very cool details they put in this film.
This man has the most perfect voice to voice these horror movies I swear.
Finally i wanted you to make a video on this for the longest
I absolutely loved this movie, it was on my mind for days. The build up to the last act is intense, with the imagery being very disturbing. What I admired in its storytelling was that there were so many subtle things going on in the background that added to the overall horror.
I actually got sick and nauseous with fear and anxiety after watching this movie. I felt my head going hot and spinning around.
WOW. What an excellent synopsis.
I think this is one of those films that gets better on repeated viewings. I’m looking to watch it again.
STOP
DROP
AND
ROLL
LOL he didn't even move, which is a sort of an example of how he was inactive for a majority of the movie. I would've taken the boy and left the moment she made a diorama of the youngests accident scene, for the sake of the oldest child at the very least.
Kou Yang like Charlie’s head when it hit the pole lol
I love this channel! Keep up the exceptional work!!!
Thanks Zachary! :)
I’m so glad you did a video on this your voice is so perfect for it. I loved your video on the thing. My favourite horror movie 🎥
i LOVE the fact that there are no jump scares. instead we get these longer than usual engagements with the fear to make sure we wont forget the genius that went into making this film so damn frightening. jump scares are annoying and not scary. my only thing is i wish there were more frightening scenes in this.
Amazing video as always Nyat! (Sorry for the misspelling)
Thanks Paul! :)
I actually just watched this movie! Thank you, this is a great explanation.
yea thanks for explaining i wasnt about to look up this pagan stuff
This film is so underrated. Most people just aren’t willing to think enough to realIy how expertly crafted this movie really is.
Yes...they don't know movie viewing
I have a hard time explaining this to my friends
This is by far my favorite scary movie ever I’ve never felt scared creeped out etc while watching a movie but when I watched this I genuinely felt that. It just has a really good mix of scary disturbing sense without just jump scares.
Just the video I was waiting for my man
Great vid!
Thanks Roblox!
It's a 13 min video and it's only been up for 4 min. WTF the math doesn't add up.
I've got to be honest, when I saw the movie, I barely understand the film. I just didn't see the full picture of the overall story of the film, but this video made me understand more on the movie's story, themes and characters as a whole, thanks!!
I think I watched the whole movie with my mouth opened. This movie played the psychological atmosphere perfectly. I was very hesitant to turn off lights when going to bed afterwards.
Good content as always. Keep up the good research.
Thanks Gene :)
I realized the many demonic references in this movie. Alot of horror movies have origins from demonic spirits and will not be watching those again.
Ooooook?
Gabriel Byrne is an amazing actor, his part was brief but he still leaves an impact, just with his expressions
Superb video as always, could you do the film 'Dog soldiers'? not a big budget horror flick but it's a personal favorite
Hey Craig! Yes its on the to do list, cant wait to do the video on it, cheers :)
@@filmcomicsexplained great news, thanks for the reply! Keep up the great content
@@filmcomicsexplained so?
Toni Colette’s performance in this was just so good, i’m surprised she didn’t get any awards
She did but the big ones shunned her due to its obvious lurid nature
Peter's mole was too distracting lol
I think it looks good on him honestly. I've seen worse.
I found myself just staring at the mole the whole time
I was more disgusted by his persona. So much nothing of his outer appearance could have made it worse. Got what he deserved.

One of the things I liked about this film was that I was legit not sure if Annie was just hallucinating or if those things were really happening around them. Even when Peter was experiencing things I chalked it up to being a "hereditary" psychosis or somthing..until the 3rd half of the movie.
Toni Collette is an AMAZING actress!!!
This woman deserves an Oscar for all her work!
Im a massive horror fan and never get scared by movies but this one just made me feel messed up like it’s honestly such a disturbing movie which is definitely impressive
I still haven’t shaken the guttural discomfort this flick left me with... saw it months ago and the imagery and _feeling_ just sticks with me...
So what I've learned from this movie is...be careful with what family you marry into. Make sure that they're not part of some insane cult.
Noted 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This was indeed one of the best horror films I’ve seen. Best one of 2018 for sure.
One thing I really enjoyed about the movie is that you could only piece together what had actually happened to the family after watching the very end. One of those where to reflect on the plot, you have to start at the revelations at the end and work backwards, reinterpeting the earlier scenes that you saw.
Just finished it and all I gotta say is WOW. One of the few films which have been able to creep up on me. The horror is done exceptionally well, building this intense feeling in your stomach until you can’t take it anymore and are dying for some relief, and boy does it ever deliver. Legitimately scared the crap out of me and was heartbreaking at times.
5/5 recommend all the time
Don't know what I love more your voice or the way this is edited
That voice ♡
I love when they sound like that.
Im a big horror fan. I rarely get scared. This movie disturbed me and I loved it!
ME TOO!!
I love movies like this. The Director tried to share a feeling and disturb his viewers instead of just shocking them with some cheap jumpscares.
Awesome Movie that deserves more attention
You got any good recommendations of movies like this?
Love this analysis. (Subscribed) 👍
Joan's moving glass scene was the most terrific, and feel connected to that scene. It feels like a school teacher is teaching her student to connect with souls in the room.
i just watched this movie last night for the first time and all i was thinking was.... “wtf is going on”😂
The scene of Charlie's severed head traumatized me more than this pandemic ever could
You too the words out of my mouth Niyat. This movie is a breath of fresh air to the current jumpscare-ridden genre.
Years later and I still haven’t seen a movie that measure up to the true fear this movie insights when you see it. Great movie!
Finally! Another a great video
cheers billy!
Billy as always.
