Excellent scene. You should have added the next scene at dusk where the biker is cleaning up the tent at the beach and the baby is still there, alone and clearly distraught. Before having kids I would have thought it was sad. After having kids it downright disturbed me.
I kept screaming at that lady the entire movie to go back and save that baby. I also wanted to make four million bears attack that guy when he left the baby
Same Retro, I’ve seen all sorts on the internet, real life awful stuff and it doesn’t shock or scare me. But that scene was really bad when they came back later, proper grim
This scene is so disturbing it is perfect. The alien has zero empathy at this point, as the movie goes on she gains empathy. You can see from the stress in her face as the movie goes on she gains emotion, it is beautiful.
This movie is likely about how men treat women and the disadvantaged. It’s a book too and it’s better. Michel Faber wrote it with his wife. We’re all human, if only the masses and violators towards women could reflect that.
The direction here is so perfect. The camera makes us completely passive observers on a horrifying series of events that unfold as they would in real life. There’s no handheld camera work or edits to make us part of the action, so you feel utterly powerless, and that’s all contrasted by this blank, emotionless character Scarlett plays in this part of the film.
It's interesting how it portrays her as a predatory animal dragging away its kill. No emotion, no higher reason for it all. It's just the universal urge to drives all life forward. Hunger
Yes, and that baby received an Oscar-shaped dummy in recognition of its nappy, err, happy performance! It also received significant insurance compensation for it's inconvenience and discomfort for appearing in such hostile conditions. Trust me as I used to have a job in infant insurance. I was a rusk assessor ...
The baby was one of two whose mother was part of the production team. The first child they sat there and the mother stepped away, but it didn't cry. So, they tried the second child and hey presto
Such a raw and disturbing scene. I read the book after I saw this movie and wasn't surprised that this scene wasn't in it. Don't think there's a way with words that could encompass this kind of ominous storytelling but props to Glazer for making the film adaptation his own and putting this in.
Good news friends - an untitled new feature film is scheduled for 2021. Under The Skin and Sexy Beast are a superb pair of films. I haven't seen Birth yet will have to give it a watch.

This scene made me so uncomfortable and unnerved . It's pure brutality . The insanely creepy doing adds to the scene . But the following scene with the baby byhimself on the beach left alone to die actually made me so upset I was thinking about wether I should warch the rest . I'm happy I did . This film is a masterpiece , no doubt
+Felix Carter Uh to be perfectly honest,people do expose their children to death in that manner.It is not just a move prop,it is a form of infanticide.
thats so funny i swear I felt the exact same way when I saw this scene the exact same way seriously when I saw this scene and then the baby alone topped it off but even before seeing the baby alone at night just this scene on the beach when the babies left by itself I wanted to turn off the movie and I sat there with the movie paused saying you know what I shouldn't even watch this s*** because I was so Disturbed and pissed off I eventually finished it anyway but I went through it a second time when I saw the scene at night with the baby sitting there crying alone then I actually did turn it off for a while and then finished it later on
the abandoned baby reminds me of those nature programs that show bird nests that have been abandoned or fledglings accidentally falling out too soon, only to be left by themselves while outside the nest doomed to die by whatever method befalls them. It makes you change your perspective seeing it happen to a human child.
This scene hit a little too close to home. About 3 years ago I watched my boyfriend try to save a woman from drowning at a CA beach and she did not survive. A few people tried to pull her out but the exhaustion hit them all so hard and the woman ended up dying after she was pulled out. Horrifying realistic scene. So glad I didn’t watch this with him because it would have been all too upsetting for him and it made my gut turn just like that day. The baby scene just made me cry :(
I was at the lake and saw from a distance a boy being pulled from the water. I ran towards him and then started CPR. He never regained consciousness. Paramedics said he had been dead about 10 minutes. He was 8 years old. Parents, watch your kids, make them wear life jackets, and stay sober. All the adults in that group were getting drunk and not being responsible.
3:07 - best shot. She's shot like a predatorial bird in a nature documentary. Slowly stalking over. No uneccessary movements and no losing focus of the eyes. The fur jacket and her hair subtly shifting in the wind adds to the effect.
@@jdlamb4212 so your words made it into the best shot? You're building it up into something it's not... it's a nearly motionless shot showing her completely static expression as the wind blows her hair. That's it
The worst part of this scene for me was when the biker guy came back and the baby was still crying, and even tried to stand up. What was so gut-wrenching about it is that babies can’t act, so that baby was genuinely so distraught it tried to get up.
Possibly the best scene in the film. The poor child just screaming with no idea what to do or how to fend for himself breaks my heart, being a father myself.
I love the way this is shot, you almost feel like it’s happening before you just like her. Almost as if she’s trying to figure out why he’s going in after her. And the alien doesn’t even know why she would do that
This is the most shocking movie scene ever for me...its the stark coldness of it all...far worse than anything I have ever seen in a horror film. Its brilliant
I remember watching this film on my laptop (I had already been freaked out by it earlier) and this scene just made me shut it off. Highly disturbing. This film is truly brilliant in that aspect
I had to remind myself that it was just a movie, every second, going throughout this whole scene. However, what mentally destroyed me, was overthinking about any situation in which a baby could end up losing his/her parents. Drama aside, rocks + wild waves mean LEAVE THE BEACH. A friend of mine ended up with some broken toes 'cause she insisted in swim a little bit.
I agree, in fact I'll go one further and say that if you're a parent, you should try your best to avoid any unnecessarily hazardous / risky situation, like jumping out of planes, catching poisonous snakes, wrestling alligators, etc.
I remember the tragedy of this: a whole family wiped out due to the indifference of the main character, she even kills the surfer dude who tried to help them. That poor helpless child at the end...! :(((
She just wants a tasty snack. The meat in that guy makes a big pile of her planet's most valuable delicacy. Human meat. Melts in your mouth if you can afford it.
This scene can absolutely leave you scarred. It reminds me of the life-long burden I would have to face if I ever were to bring another life into this world. To not confidently be able to say that I will always be there to protect that child who would be left helpless and vulnerable without me. Realistically, this world is just too unpredictable for any such guarantees. I don't know how people go there. No biological clock could ever force me to close my eyes to that reality. This scene is the ultimate reminder.
Haven't seen the movie, but this scene is very disturbing 😢 How could the couple allow the dog to go into the water! How could the dad leave the baby alone!!
The thing that bugs me out is why the fuck would the father jump back into the sea (To die) after being saved when not only did a man put his life on the line to save his, he also left his fucking baby there for dead? Like what? You'd think he would've kept his sons safety as a priority above all else. Instead his actions not only leads to the death of his son but also leads to his rescuer being knocked out out and dumped in a black alien pool to be digested for his meat. Yeah, this movie is fucked, i just wished there was more unsettling stuff like that towards the end. (More context on who the motorcycle men are and why they knew her every move but then can't seem to find her when she goes running)
@@jeepmap1 youre a weird fucking dude. you commented the same shit on several comments. there is clearly a very young child in the scene who is crying. im assuming youre saying there is no baby in the scene because its a toddler, but bro youre fucking weird for that. correcting anyone who calls a toddler a baby in yt comments. get a life you weirdo.
@@jeepmap1 the opening shows a family with a baby with the father and mother. Than we see the dog in the sea and mother trying to save her. after that the father tries to save wife. they all die but baby is left back
This scene grips you. To see the man attempt to save his fellow man from drowning displayed a very human desire to care for someone else and actually reaching out to DO something. The good Samaritan was very much exhausted in his attempt to rescue the man, and in turn he laid there exposed. The alien showed no regard for the good Samaritan's woes. On top of that, the alien cared nothing at all for the crying baby. We as humans would reach out and care for complete strangers. I think the awesome and compelling force that drives humans is love. Immediately when I saw the good Samaritan running to the aid of the man, I wanted him to reach him in time. I thought about the daughter too. I wanted him to scream to the young girl to head for the rocks for safety. For an alien, I would think that a predator would be rather physically capable of dispensing it's prey. This alien could barely drag the fellow. A real predator would have consumed it's prey there on the spot. This is an intriguing story. The musical score could have been better. However, it did evoke a sense of creepiness.
but is it really love? don't we rather do it because of empathy? knowing how much it would suck to be in this situation and how great it would be if someone helped..
Tonester# is also think tho that this is the scene where she starts to develop a conscience. She sees humans helping each other at the risk of their own lives and she begins to wonder why she is doing these things? Her quest gets more and more difficult as she begins to wrestle with her humanity.
this disturbed me more than any other movie scene. the lack of cinematic music or dramatic editing perfectly portrayed the cold reality of tragic events like this.
Too bad she realized it too late. She could have helped the ones drowning. Instead she knocks out the good samaritan and I believe eats him later(no good deed goes unpunished). Lastly, she leaves a helpless terrified baby on the beach. Disgusting!
yeah i think i happened to be in a more detached mental state when i watched this movie the other day.. otherwise i would have probably turned it off. the dog, then the kid, then the dad, (and the surfer guy) and to top it off the helpless baby.. who actually was the most helpless.. it was just brutal. weirdly though, you don't actually hear about the baby being found in the news report. i think the news report was talking about the dad that died and washed up.. so why didn't the baby get found? it didn't go in the water supposedly. i wonder if maybe he was picked up later by the guy alien or even johansen (i doubt it but you never know)
A dark part of my imagination makes me imagine that an opportunistic child molestor saw the baby helpless on the beach trying to get away across the rocks and kidnapped it. ;( I can't watch this scene, seeing children in this state just tears at my soul.
im watching this movie right now as im speaking, ive paused the movie coz i just witnessed this scene. Im absolutely traumatised and had to take a break.. my heart is just fucked from this scene alone..
I too am watching it right now and paused it before the full scene ended. Seeing the baby screaming while she dragged the body away was too much for me as a new parent. I’m done with this film, I don’t need or want to see that kind of thing.
This is the best metaphor I've seen for the importance of love/empathy with detachment. If you see someone drowning and you can save him without harming you or others give him your hand. If it's not possible search other options. While helping if he tries to drag you into is suffering remove the hand. We are there to decrease the suffering not to increase the loss.
I feel like a bad person b/c after watching this scene I felt sad, but not deeply disturbed like others who watched this scene. Am I missing something?
I think the only way to make "peace" with this scene is to realize that this is an alien that does not have any empathy for humans in her current state of mind. So for her to not be affected by the plight of the crying baby is just natural to her, while horrifying to us.
Omg!! This is horrible. Three of my worst heartbreaking movie moments all happen in this one scene. •Dog is swept away (probably drowned) •Woman drowns trying to save the dog •Man drowns after going back to save his wife •Baby is left alone, abandoned and ignored. My heart is dead
I felt equally bad for the dog. Everyone talking about the baby, but damn, the dog was innocent too. why even be at the beach when the water is THAT wild?
Everyone’s saying this scene is brilliant but how did the guy in the switsuit die? He pulled them both out then straight up died straight away 30 seconds after walking
Yeah the scene with the baby crying its head off is pretty awful, but it's also the lady out in the middle of that powerful surf, helpless, getting slowly dragged out to sea along with their dog. Her husband on his way out (a second time) to his death as well. Just an overall awful scene.
Guys, does anybody know if them swimming and drowning is just brilliant seamless vfx? How the hell did they pull this scene off? 2:53 in particular it looks like she really get taken by the sea. Is it vfx? or do you think its like there’s a team of swimmers ready to pull them out, or they have a harness or something. It looks very realistic and i’ve always wondered how they managed to keep these actors safe. Those tides look seriously dangerous
I understand that pets are valued, but I'm trying to understand the logic of one parent alone jumping into raging water. Both??? And leaving the child alone? To save a dog???
I honestly can’t watch this scene. I’m only here to see the comments. I watched it before having a son, and thought it was pretty sad. Now, just the thought of this scene shakes me to my core. As disturbing as it is, you have to give Glazer props for filming something so powerful.
Aw, shit. The end of this scene and the one that follows up got to me so much. I swear, everytime I see babies and little children in situations like these, whether in a movie or not, I'm about to break into tears. Yeah, I am a pussy but fuck, I just can't handle seeing them cry.
@@mr.d.572 are you saying Im not human? cause I feel somewhat irritated by the cries and screams and it ultimately produces laughter every time. like Im trying to feel the "right thing", but its so downright pathetic that I start finding it funny.
we all agree that scene is disturbing. What really bothers me it how it unfold. that lady went to the water to save her dog. Then husband abandon baby to save her. strange save him but still want to die and leave the baby. don't know what I should think of that. About the alien, alien doing what alien is suppose to do. But those human, dam... oops they were really damed. Some might find this scene great, some will really just find that scene really stupid. But we are all stupid sometimes.
I read an interview where they said the mother was always only a foot away from the child out of the shot. They used this baby in particular because he cried any time it’s mother put him down. Which some do!
I like how this scene just came out of nowhere and is legitimately disturbing, it felt legit real
yes, they hid cameras and use real people in this movie...sadly.
@@VitorMiguell They didn't use real people for this scene though... you do realise this, no?
@@VitorMiguell I don't mean to sound like I'm being a dick, but I don't think that's a real situation my man. There'd be a lot more stories about it than a paltry few CZcams vids looking into the meaning or the exact series of events behind the scene.

This scene was filmed on the pebble beach at Auchmithie, 4 miles north of Arbroath, on the East coast of Scotland.
I had to remind myself that it was just a movie, every second, going throughout this whole scene. However, what mentally destroyed me, was overthinking about any situation in which a baby could end up losing his/her parents.

That was a dangerous scene - any of the actors in the waves could’ve been seriously hurt!
Even with a surfboard it wouldn´t look very inviting
Even though it's still an alien doing something strange it's all still nature doing its thing.
"The most terrifying fact about the universe is not that it is hostile but that it is indifferent" - Kubrick
That’s my favourite beach for snorkelling/diving 😁 will definitely keep clear of creepybreeks the alien next time 😂😂
God this film is bizarre!! I like it!
The alien has never experienced any sort of act of kindness. Her species is not capable of kindness. It took her a bit but she eventually understands.
Too bad she realized it too late. She could have helped the ones drowning. Instead she knocks out the good samaritan and I believe eats him later(no good deed goes unpunished). Lastly, she leaves a helpless terrified baby on the beach. Disgusting!
yeah i think i happened to be in a more detached mental state when i watched this movie the other day.. otherwise i would have probably turned it off. the dog, then the kid, then the dad, (and the surfer guy) and to top it off the helpless baby.. who actually was the most helpless.. it was just brutal. weirdly though, you don't actually hear about the baby being found in the news report. i think the news report was talking about the dad that died and washed up.. so why didn't the baby get found? it didn't go in the water supposedly. i wonder if maybe he was picked up later by the guy alien or even johansen (i doubt it but you never know)
A dark part of my imagination makes me imagine that an opportunistic child molestor saw the baby helpless on the beach trying to get away across the rocks and kidnapped it. ;( I can't watch this scene, seeing children in this state just tears at my soul.
It's so sad when it tries to stand up but fails and just sits down and looks around
It looks so helpless. :( Imagine how terrified it would be. Such loneliness and despair. You just have to remind yourself that it isn't real.
Michael Berry yeah but then again i think: this child didnt know how to act. for this scene, it probably was helpless and upset
But, neither was it abandoned. In reality right now it has aged quite a few years and has a normal, happy life.
I think this is the scene where she begins to think that humans aren't all evil, why am I killing them? She begins to develop a conscience.
she has a weird way of showing it
Esse filme é incrível. Ele fala de uma interação entre dois Mundos. Pouquíssimos entendem.
Reason #2,934,382 to never set foot in the ocean.
The alien, waves or the baby?
Learning experience: don’t go to a wavy isolated beach. Or this could happen
Minus the alien abduction obviously but you never know
This one scene terrorizes more than all of the Scream Annabelle Paranormal Activity movies combined.
Most horrific , disturbing and realistic scene of all the 'scary' movies out there 👏🏼
I feel like a lot of people forget the daughter/Mother (?) that tried to save the dog because they wonder why the father leaves the baby 🤔🤔
im watching this movie right now as im speaking, ive paused the movie coz i just witnessed this scene. Im absolutely traumatised and had to take a break.. my heart is just fucked from this scene alone..
I too am watching it right now and paused it before the full scene ended. Seeing the baby screaming while she dragged the body away was too much for me as a new parent. I’m done with this film, I don’t need or want to see that kind of thing.
the scene left me filled with fury
This scene was really disturbing and I thought it summed up the darkness of the film in a way , brilliant film
This is the best metaphor I've seen for the importance of love/empathy with detachment. If you see someone drowning and you can save him without harming you or others give him your hand. If it's not possible search other options. While helping if he tries to drag you into is suffering remove the hand. We are there to decrease the suffering not to increase the loss.
I Watched this film last night, strange but good, in an artistic sense, a lot of statements were said in this film.
Alien: this fool rlly boutta drown for another species
Its a great way to illustrate that the aliens couldn't care less about humans. The baby (now an orphan) isn't even worthy of attention.
not even a snack
I feel like a bad person b/c after watching this scene I felt sad, but not deeply disturbed like others who watched this scene. Am I missing something?
It's profoundly mean spirited.
I think the only way to make "peace" with this scene is to realize that this is an alien that does not have any empathy for humans in her current state of mind. So for her to not be affected by the plight of the crying baby is just natural to her, while horrifying to us.
@@mr.d.572 yep
Mh. I was wondering too. I have completely forgotten about this scene.
The stone on the head is mean though. Makes me wanna kick her.
Omg!! This is horrible. Three of my worst heartbreaking movie moments all happen in this one scene.
•Dog is swept away (probably drowned)
•Woman drowns trying to save the dog
•Man drowns after going back to save his wife
•Baby is left alone, abandoned and ignored.
My heart is dead
The thing that makes this even worse is that the baby almost sounds like it's laughing
Yooooo the most disturbing part is when the dude comes back and the baby is about to drown
i'm just at a complete loss at how they achieved this scene.
1:28 he really is from the Czech republic. He is Czech actor Kryštof Hádek.
damn, those boots :(
I felt equally bad for the dog. Everyone talking about the baby, but damn, the dog was innocent too. why even be at the beach when the water is THAT wild?
You're a psychopath if you consider a dog to be in any way close to being as important as a baby.
What baby, there is no baby in this scene
I’m commenting this years later - but this movie is the only one I saw in the cinema where people literally walked out. At this scene.
She look’s dead inside just to note that
We are dealing with something very, very inhuman here
what?
Ayer vi esta peli y desde ayer pienso en esta escena.para mi es brutal
Porque? Hay muchos niños huerfanos en el mundo…. Hay muchas madres/padres solteros 🤷♀️ Que vas hacer para cambiarlo?
Everyone’s saying this scene is brilliant but how did the guy in the switsuit die? He pulled them both out then straight up died straight away 30 seconds after walking
Most difficult scene to get through, ever. Almost stopped watching. Glad I stuck with it for the wild ending.
Poor doggy.
What makes this a very uncomfortable scene is how its based in reality. similar things have happened before.
Dying is so much easier than we want to credit it.
pAVEL ISNT DEAD HE WAS JUST SWIMMING
بجد هتجنن علفلم اريدو كامل بليز
Yeah the scene with the baby crying its head off is pretty awful, but it's also the lady out in the middle of that powerful surf, helpless, getting slowly dragged out to sea along with their dog. Her husband on his way out (a second time) to his death as well. Just an overall awful scene.
The poor baby😭
Guys, does anybody know if them swimming and drowning is just brilliant seamless vfx? How the hell did they pull this scene off? 2:53 in particular it looks like she really get taken by the sea. Is it vfx? or do you think its like there’s a team of swimmers ready to pull them out, or they have a harness or something. It looks very realistic and i’ve always wondered how they managed to keep these actors safe. Those tides look seriously dangerous
poor beebee
Chilling! Gave me the heebie-jeebies!
Same. Dogshit movie. Better laugh with it
The poor dog..........
Nooo, the dog! :(
Really? The dog? lmao
Yeah, I felt so sorry for that poor dog trying to swim back to shore he looked so helpless :( Oh and the baby was sad too.
zaphr89 Or sarcasm.
*****
Poe's law.
Not the baby
No entendi, por que le pego con una piedra?
Did she kill him with the rock or was he just rendered unconscious?
Unconscious. He has to stay alive for the meat gathering process to work because it takes time.
Skarlet gohanson ilov yuo
I don't think I could watch my dog being swept out to sea without going in myself. Don't think I could live with myself if I didn't try.
Did the dog make it?
yep
I understand that pets are valued, but I'm trying to understand the logic of one parent alone jumping into raging water. Both??? And leaving the child alone? To save a dog???
3:07.. chills
That baby can damn act xxxx
KINO+ brought me here :'/
I honestly can’t watch this scene. I’m only here to see the comments. I watched it before having a son, and thought it was pretty sad. Now, just the thought of this scene shakes me to my core. As disturbing as it is, you have to give Glazer props for filming something so powerful.
WHY DIDNT THE SWIMMER SAVE THE WIFE FIRST?'
Because he couldn't
That would have been ideal but it looked to me like she was too far out and In too Deep of water.
I feel bad for the baby.😢
DANGER DOLAN

What does this have to do with the movie...?
Aw, shit. The end of this scene and the one that follows up got to me so much. I swear, everytime I see babies and little children in situations like these, whether in a movie or not, I'm about to break into tears. Yeah, I am a pussy but fuck, I just can't handle seeing them cry.
That means you're human. You'd be surprised how many people aren't.
@@mr.d.572 are you saying Im not human? cause I feel somewhat irritated by the cries and screams and it ultimately produces laughter every time. like Im trying to feel the "right thing", but its so downright pathetic that I start finding it funny.
@@ThePitchblue
I'd say something is wrong there and you should be concerned about a lack of empathy.
we all agree that scene is disturbing. What really bothers me it how it unfold. that lady went to the water to save her dog. Then husband abandon baby to save her. strange save him but still want to die and leave the baby. don't know what I should think of that. About the alien, alien doing what alien is suppose to do. But those human, dam... oops they were really damed. Some might find this scene great, some will really just find that scene really stupid. But we are all stupid sometimes.
Poor kid. How did they shoot this scene without frightening this little child?
I read an interview where they said the mother was always only a foot away from the child out of the shot. They used this baby in particular because he cried any time it’s mother put him down. Which some do!
@@KevCraven Thank you for answering.
@@KevCraven
Wow! I was wondering about that myself 🤷♂️
