I think at some point, complete destruction of the house and doors could have led to something different. There was a lot of open flame and tools to bust down doors to keep them open. Also, I would not care about a time paradox. Open the stall to my past self to save myself
You dont even need to save "yourself" you (well not you but someone who is you without the last 24 hours or so) is guaranteed to show up so no matter what happens there would be a "you" still alive.
@@JellyFilledEmpanada exactly, one could argue that you potentially doom yourself by changing events that happend. If you don’t intervene you know for a fact that that version of you will end up where you are now, but you don’t know what would happen if you change what happend
Question: was it not possible for them to get back out the car, find some sort of pay phone, or ask someone if they can use their phone, and then proceed to call yourself to warn future you of the unforeseen danger
@@TheNasaOK Essentially it was the creation of the first loop in a 'time loop'. Or the millionth loop... There is no way for her to know which.
The point remains that she should have tried to break the loop, i would certainly like for my future self to would warn me if i'm about to enter unknowingly into house of horrors.
@@alaric_ exactly why would u not warn yourself its such a stupid move
I think the town is under the influence of the inventors house. The father & daughter were doomed once they were within the towns borders. It could be what caused their car to breakdown. The house has shown it can teleport and control spatial movement. The mud from the painting makes me believe it can take you to different placed not inside the house and the behavior of the waitress is very suspicious. Thanks for the video, love your work.
The movie is a lot like the movie triangle. Both involve crazy time loops that seem to always end in the same outcome.
@@lunaballuna i love that movie
I respect Karen having the guts to propose climbing through the window by herself, because I sure as hell would not separate from the group with all the freaky shit happening
There's a difference between being brave and being stupid q
There had barely been any freaky shit at that point though. I'm sure Karen wouldn't have offered if that window was later down the line xD
@@Milloeuf Huh? Josie bleeding to death without any plausible reason it was fake is enough freaky shit for me.
@@herroyung857 I guess so, even if they didn't have time to really inspect that she was actually wounded. It's not the first time hosts of Escape Rooms would play a dying character.
@@Milloeuf I mean, there's acting dead and being dead. You can't keep up a solid performance for more than about 50 seconds because you need to breathe. And yes humans can go longer than that without breathing but it requires a lot of training and prep.
The loop starts as soon as you enter the town / diner. Everyone seems to have a character who has visited the room and is caught in the loop (the host at the beginning frantically asking how they got in, the waitress at the diner warning them not to go) and a character who isn't caught in the loop or their past self (the host just normally hosting the escape room, the waitress coming out of the bathroom) just how there's a Karen that's aware of the escape room and one who hasn't gotten there yet.
It starts with the contract. By the time she was in the bathroom they had already made the decision to go to the escape room that’s why the loop interaction was possible
I would've tried to break the loop as soon as I had a chance. I don't care about paradoxes; I'd just want to change something.
@@RobertMcBride-is-cool that's if the house or universe will actually allow it to happen in the first place... it would appear the entire town/any and all people that interacted with the house, are all "inside" the house. What's to say interacting with a perceived past version of yourself will actually just kill them or have them disappear while you're still trapped regardless.
That's lowkey brilliant
@@dustgraystone9448 Since its clear "we" are a 2nd or who knows version its safe to assume the world around us and everyone in it is a pocket dimension of some sort like a Save file in a matrix type world and clearly the first version of me didnt make it out cuz if they did my bet is you (2nd) wont even happen at the first place.
So knowing we are another loop just go to town , go wild , do what ever even if its just to say F U to the demon and start punching people left and right cuz it really doesnt matter.
I mean sure you can try and drag it out as long as possible to see if future you manages to give you an advantage or a possible way out but as i see it there is none:
1.Demon can kill you at anytime he wants
2.the timer was just a petty prank
3.If future you managed to break free "you" wouldnt BE since the cicle was broken already
It boils down to do we know if we are the first loop or not.
If we are not the first then fuck it do what ever.

Reality is a no escape room.

@@edmundpope6415
Depends on how you look at it. A lot of viewers are just here to watch a free shorter version of the horror movies without being jumpscared every second.
Yes
Just wait til you find out about the movies the vids are based on
I've been to Chinese escape rooms where its literally a two story apartment condo and the first floor is the reception area and the second floor is the lobby. When we started they handcuffed us to a metal bar and then locked us inside a closed room. I literally thought we were done but the escape room turned out to be fine.
I would have immediatly been like "Shit well, time to die I guess..."
Oof maybe you should've take the "how to survive" video more seriously then XD
@Zeka Nova what the fuck
I’m in nyc. There’s one where we start off locked in a jail cell
Uhhhh.. what…
Problem is, once things goes too supernatural, it's pretty much impossible to actually win. When there are no loopholes or alike to abuse you are done for.
Especially with something that can trap you in a time loop and teleport you around.
Chance is they lost the moment they signed the contract, not knowing what was written on it it's hard to tell, but at least lots of lore actually revolves around even supernatural beings needing some kind of agreement before they can affect you.
My guess on supernatural beings needing some form of agreement from mortals is may be a rule set by the supernatural beings among themselfes otherwise they`ll just ruin the world too quickly if there is not limit
💯
I think the future Karen could’ve helped her previous self in the bathroom and possibly saved the others. She could’ve said thru the stall “if you’re going to the escape room, don’t let anyone get separated.” Or hell “Josie has the master key” lol
@@Vanlifecrisis except the loop is diffrent every time just the diffrences are subte so this isnt working on butterfly time physics or every loop would be EXACTLY the same.
Fabulous job as always Nerd Explains! From what I can tell, there is nothing that can be done to change the time loop. The loop of Karen and Michael is much larger than that of Tyler and Melanie’s. However, it is almost impossible to say when exactly the loop starts and stops. I would be curious if someone did a deep dive of the other paintings in the house. Obviously the house/inventor has serious control or hallucinogenic abilities that allow not only control of the house but the manipulation of scenes/senarios outside of the home (i.e. the diner, their car, the river with the tree painting). I don’t believe they have left the house at all. Everyone there in the diner, the waitress, are all in time loops of their own. I don’t believe coming in contact with your future time loop self would stop anything, maybe minus that particular time loop itself. There is something up with Andrew. He knows too much. So either he has been through his own loop enough times and is aware of the situation that is happening, but chooses to stay quiet, or he is deeper involved. It just doesn’t make sense why he and Michael split up for any reason. It doesn’t look like they were forcibly separated, and it honestly seems like he is well aware of what is going on versus the others that are possibly hallucinating throughout a lot of it. Something is just off in his case. I would be curious if he is just another victim or maybe he is the inventor? It’s a stretch, but could be explained with the fact that we don’t ever see him die or a body. I think there is only one safe bet to avoid this situation. When your gut is literally screaming at you that something is wrong, you should listen to it. I am not exactly sure what father walks into this house and thinks his daughter is safe signing a contract that is hand written and drinking a dry iced chi latte. The bars on the inside of windows is a HARD NO! Not to mention Karen is literally glued to that phone, and she doesn’t think to google this “escape room” especially after the waitress makes comments about disappearances and all that. Really? I would never just show up to an abandoned looking house and think to myself there isn’t anything out of the ordinary while the doors are locked? Where did they get the money to set up an elaborate escape room in this dusty house, especially since it was only advertised in the local paper? I am sort of surprised that no one thought to maybe inflict some pain to see if it was possible to “wake up.” I mean it’s worth a try once they realized they were in the time loop. Notes from this: 1. Trust your gut! 2. Be observant! 3. You are fantastic Nerd Explains!
I hope you used text to speech

Imagine having to fix the same car over and over again, the mechanic is in the true nightmare O-O
I would read this but it’s to long I’m lazy and the person that typed this needs help
I genuinely want to see the sequel to this if they have one. I'm super interested on how the whole loop thing works and where it goes from here.
Glad to see the numbers are doing well here. I remember when I first found and started watching Nerd Explains people were dogging him calling him a rip off of other movie explaination channels but I always found him unique and quite funny, happy to know more see it that way
He's on a whole other level than Cinema Summary.
@@Grintock nah they are both equally at the top of this genre.
@@hadi8699 I don't mean in subscriber numbers or views. I mean Nerd Explains looks at situations a lot more realistically and thinks of solutions the characters could reasonably know. Cinema Summary ignores that characters can panick, lack expert knowledge or that they reasonably don't expect supernatural events. Pretty easy to beat situations if you assume the characters would have perfect knowledge of everything happening to them. What Nerd Explains does is a lot more difficult.
@@Grintock this honestly. I remember watching cinema summery and going why would I ever assume that's what going right now unless I knew I was in a movie more than a few times.
@@Grintock yeah but at the same time I watch them cuz they are incredibly entertaining and less for me to build my survival skills. But yeah nerd does have better 'tactics'
I always like to defend the characters for their ignorance and naivety in these sorts of videos. People always say there are clear red flags and better decisions should've been made, but that's not always the case. So here's my defense for this film:
1. Michael not contacting friends and loved ones about the plan change isn't unusual. Who does that? It's not a major change. They aren't going from Chicago to Los Angelos, they are just visiting a different source of entertainment in the same town.
2. Firstly, the metal bars installed over the interior of the back windows in the main entryway: It's very possible these are props, installed to give the escape room a more realistic feeling.
3. Grabbing the customer IS kind of odd, but could be attributed to overly enthusiastic acting. Considering that the waitress at the diner also played along with the 'act', it's clear this place is at least somewhat known, and may be a source of pride in the area. This would give more credit to the receptionist being overly passionate about the pride of the town.
4. Lack of payment ahead of time IS really suspicious.
5. People don't expect their tea to be laced. They've heard about the existence of the escape room from the diner woman, so they are more prone to believe that this is actually a legit escape room.
6. Cell phones not being allowed is actually understandable. Not all escape rooms allow phones, either because they could be used as a light source, ruining the atmosphere, or mabe because they don't want you to take pictures of quizzes and mysteries and create a legit walkthrough.
7. If the contracts ARE illegible, that's a concern. But are they really illegible? If they aren't, I haven't been to an escape room, and I didn't know how long the contracts should be, so if it's their first escape room, the length of the contracts itself wouldn't have triggered red flags. Also , I doubt the contents of the contract would prevent the antagonist from murdering you since he's not planning on abiding by it in the first place. This was actually a mistake from the antagonist side, as he could've easily provided a more legitimate contract paper and had them sign it just as easily, and got a few more picky nerds like Nerd Explains because of the legitimacy of the contract.
8. No emergency exits: I've never been to an escape room before, so I didn't know there should be emergency exits in each room. I know there should be easy ways in and out, but I figured they'd be disguised on the inside so that they don't break the ambience of the place. I thought these would be easily opened from outside, so if anything happened, a staff could open that door and let the customers out. We must remember that not everyone has experience with escape rooms. I haven't seen the movie, but the dad and daughter only came to this escape room as a replacement for the original plan, so they aren't huge enthusiasts unless that was otherwise mentioned. In which case, they too wouldn't notice the lack of escape rooms as odd, and assume it's hidden from the inside, like I did. It's also possible that this was a privately owned escape room, and possibly illegal, but not necessarily malicious.
9. I agree that they should've knocked down the starting room door somehow after they found that the safe word doesn't work. But I also believe that it'd be one of the strongest doors in the whole place, so after trying my best, I may give up and go through the rooms.
10. Going to extremes like destroying lamps and furniture would be a good idea if we were sure there was really a murderer after us, but if we are uncertain, we wouldn't want to risk having to pay for all the damage. Maybe that's what was written in the contract, and that's what they were going for. "Any damage done to objects in the escape rooms are to be repaid by threefold of the original price of the said object" or the like. We don't know, we didn't read the contract. Since we don't know, we wouldn't be willing to try that.
11. If Karen thought it was Josie calling her, it reinforces the possibility that Josie getting stabbed was just an act, and that there isn't really a murderer. In this case, it would be expected that "Josie"'s strange behavior is another part of the act and that following her would lead to more clues to escape the escape rooms.
12. Since the group was told Josie is okay, I wouldn't have used the grandfather's clock to ram the door. If the others did, it would make me concerned about the contents of the contract, as I mentioned in 10. Since this is the case, I wouldn't force previous doors to remain open, in fear of violating something in the contract.
13. Grabbing a weapon upon hearing the growling is a good idea, but it is a secondary priority. Given how terrifying the situation must be, most people wouldn't have the mind to think about grabbing a weapon. It's also comes with a risk as well, as the 'murderer' may remember the locations of everything and figure out someone was there.
14. I have no defense for Melanie getting separated from the group.
15. Totally agree with Melanie and the maze. Once you start teleporting, you KNOW something's up, and you have to take drastic measures.
16. When you are panicked and in a hurry to climb the ladder, you try to climb it as fast as you can, not necessarily the safest way. This means her arms were focus on going up instead of hanging on. This makes it very hard to hang on when her foothold suddenly breaks.
17. Once I realized the doors close even when members are separated, I too would start jamming doors.
18. I'd also be suspicious of how Andrew found Karen, but I'd have suspected that he's actually a part of the staff here. Remember that everyone who's alive haven't actually seen one of their own die with their own eyes, so there's still the possibility that this is all just a really twisted, realistic horror escape room in their minds.
19. Michael was clearly not in his right mind with the painting. He was probably still entranced by it somewhat when he got into the painting, perhaps in some sort of hypnotic daze. He probably couldn't help it.
I'd say you are pretty spot on
Though will add a few things from someone that has done quite a few escape rooms (in Australia not the US so laws will be similar but not exactly the same)
Contract, never signed one in my life, if they had me sign some kind of wavier I would be suspicious that its dangerous, otherwise the exchange is under general goods and services law of 'they provide service and you pay them for it' all legal responsibilities are on them to make sure its safe, and that anything they don't want you to do is told by them up front, but not once have I ever had to sign anything
Payment, depends some you pay afterwards some you pay before, I would say most have had us pay afterwards as the rule but with large discounts for booking in advance which does require payment up front, I'd say its a lot like restaurant rules you normally pay after as you may not enjoy it and ask to finish early which means they need to refund you etc, I'm guessing the business logic is just better to do it afterwards since people will argue about payment less once they have 'eaten the whole meal'
Never been to an escape room without an emergency exit that has a sign, and the door being unlocked, also pretty sure every singe time I have been the attendant has always made it very clear along with the standard introduction and the "nothing needs to be disassembled, if it is supposed to come apart it will be clear" lines, where the emergency exit is, and that it is not part of the game (there was one where we were all locked in separate cells at the start and had to figure out how to get out, thats prob the closest to no emergency exit access but was clear we could ask to be removed, and I suspect that they had a remote emergency unlocking as well)
Phones, never been to one where they took our phones, normally they ask that you leave them in an individual locker that they provide for bags and other personal belongings etc, but never require it, the rules are normally more "Please don't use phones, if we see you using phones than we will dock you points, and it ruins the fun for everyone else playing with you and yourself"
Also have been 'grabbed' by attendant before, but was generally pretty understandable (for example being blindfolded and lead to the room), I wouldn't find it that odd, and think I would think what you said that they were just being a bit more over the top given that the escape room is much more than most other escape rooms
I am yet however to have one where I teleport or time is weird, or they drug me
@@Park501 I am from the US, and the only thing you have that is different is the contract signing part. That's probably because of how our legal system differs from yours.
These videos always seem to rely on the fact that you know you’re in a horror movie and are constantly debilitatingly paranoid with experience or at least some research put it into the specific gimmick of the movie that most ppl wouldn’t normally have but because you’re in a horror movie it works out
All of you need help
@@bonelesscommunism4031 I know. Rebutting against that assumption is is just my way of enjoying these videos.
I was definitely not expecting a time loop paradox in this movie, Quite the plot twist!
Right! I like it, it's pretty interesting. For a movie of course. I cannot think about somehow getting caught in a situation like this in real life. I'd just break down and cry lol
@@jermaenjoyer Very similar here. Hell I'd not separate from others when things start going wrong. Let's grab weapons, perhaps deconstruct the house, and just wait in one, safe looking room. (not the one where Melanie got stuck!)
If you collaborated with Cinema Summary, you guys would be unstoppable and would find ways to get out of any perilous situation in a movie.

Why u changed the photo?

@@Zam-Buk_Gaming Nobody cares if you don't like it.
I think the diner is the point of the loop. The second you enter is the second you start. I think if you "escape" by the "master key" you meant some condition to the escape to meet the "Help the people escape" I think the master key is just a normal key. I feel like the rule of 1 hour is actually in that hour you have to save everyone in the room with you or you're stuck in the loop. Tyler is the perfect example. You saw him dying, the existence of the loop, him being taken away, and him hearing/seeing things. His condition is like 'Don't leave the group' which you have to watch so you know what to fix for the next loop
Honestly, the lack of advertising at the location would probably send me out, especially the entry is locked/doesn't answer immediatly after knocking
I say it was the moment they entered the dinner the house was able to trance and fixate it’s victims with a video and painting. If their first escape lead to the diner bathroom it means it to is part of the game. He used a news paper not because he wanted to but because the house wanted him to and it explains why he chose/stuck with the escape house immediately.
The bathroom stall scene reminds me of an old point-and-click escape room flash game called M.O.T.A.S. I wonder if it was inspired by that? For reference, you need to take a space suit from one of two doors but one is jammed shut anyways. It turns out later that you go back in time to that point and hold the first closet shut from inside in order to prevent a time paradox as your past self takes the second suit that you were forced to take earlier. Given it was one of the early “escape room” games I wouldn’t be surprised if it was directly inspired
I figured it out. The entire town was lured one by one to that escape room. All of the town is stuck in a paradox and they try to get visitors to get them out. That’s why the diner lady looked nervous but happy to help at the same time. If their past self is dead but their current self is alive, that means someone else has to rescue them.
So the riddle is that you must prevent anyone from dying in your visit to the room or risk going back in time to rescue them without being seen.
The paradox is that your future self put you in the situation to begin with so you have to remember so you can prevent a repeat and risk getting stuck in a loop.
How do you save Andrew who gets randomly dragged away in a sewer.
Plus we never saw Andrew and the father decide to split , plus we never got an answer of how Andrew knew where the girl was as the narrator pointed out.
May be its just plot holes by the writers but as long as Andrew is part of the group there is no saving him or you cuz he is like a "wild card"

Have you thought about doing a round table D&D style 'How to Beat' game night series with other creators e.g. Cinema Summary. You could get a Dungeon Master to create scenarios etc... Would be fun to watch a group of 'How to Beat' youtubers or even yourself and some Nerds beating scenarios in real-time!
Maybe socially distanced for now!

The only thing that makes my week “how to beat videos with nerd explains” just hits different.
My craziest escape room story has got to be this one in Belarus called contraband. The quest itself is pretty similar to a lot of other quests I've done. The real scary part was at the start. You see, instead of just walking into the room by yourself, one of my friend's parents just told us to wait near this regular-looking apartment building. Keep in mind, it was around ~8-10 pm, in the middle of winter. Barely any people around, very cold, very dark.
Not sure how long we waited but it was around 10 minutes. Suddenly, a van pulls up to us and two people get out and yell at us to "Get into the car!". The van ride lasted around 10 minutes from what I remember and things weren't looking great when we got to the "quest location". Obviously, we were blindfolded so all I felt was stepping out into the cold outside, then being brought onto what they said was a train. They told us to remove our coats, the lights turned off, we got handcuffed to a large bench and it finally began. From the moment we got picked up to when our group made it to the second room, I wasn't 100% sure this was an intentional part of the quest.
As I said, the escape room itself was nothing too special, but it was a very memorable experience.
I still can't believe that I love watching these types of videos while it's pitch black outside, I wacted all the "SAW" videos in one night with no breaks between them.
Keep doing what you're doing Nerd Explains.

Out of the hundreds of channels I'm subbed to I don't think I get excited over any more than nerd explains.
Hey, Nerd Explain, the reason for the no cell phone thing has nothing to do with No Escape Room being a horror (although might as well be a normally is the common theme in horrors with either broken cells or no services etc). Cell phones aren't normally allowed in escape rooms in real life due to cellphones can be used to ruin the fun and excitement of the escape room. Its even explained in Escape Room (2019). I actually looked it up because confiscating cellphones is a common thing in the Escape Room theme movies I seen and decided to see what they said in Escape Room (2019) about why cellphones aren't allowed is true
Escape Room(2019) is the sequel to this or no?

@@ohreally69 Yeah, I know, I saw them. They are pretty good.
I think there is one big hint you missed - that they were asked to ditch their phones at the start. This implies that their phones *were* useful somehow and could have enabled them to break the game. Your first advice to hold on to them is good.
Once they were inside the house, I think this fact is still useful - it tells them whatever is happening isn't completely magical and all powerful. They could have tried attracting outside help by starting a fire, say. Another idea is to use the projector to try to short out the electricity in the house.
Yeah but you forget its all supernatural and it the "rules" of the loop were super unclear so who knows what can work if it even works.

I think that the diner is an entry point. Perhaps the town is in a time loop as well as the three others in the house. Josie's shock proves that Michael and Karen aren't supposed to be there. Maybe at the time that Michael and Karen entered the house, the town had run out of victims or the ones sitting in the diner have decided not to go to the house locking everything in suspended animation until two more players joined the game.
its always a good day when nerd explains uploads
I feel like at the end the car box needed the earring key that Karen found earlier at the house
Time loops are always unbeatable. Seems like a horror movie fact. 🤷🏾♂️
This movie is genuinely terrifying.
I love your videos because I don’t like jump scares/really scary scenes, but I can appreciate the good writing/plot of horror movies. Your summaries and explanations are an easily digestible way of watching these movies without having to be scared.
Nerd explains is a certified legend
Just watched this tonight and was delighted to see you made a No Escape Room tutorial.
Karen should've just her own powers and summoned the manager to escape.
🤣🤣
So, it looks like town is in on the horror. As such, you are pretty much doomed the moment you enter the diner. Thems the breaks on going into a place where everyone wants you dead. Quite frankly, I wouldn't surprised if the townfolk doesn't just shoot you even if you "win" the game, in order to not face the popo.
Probably. The townspeople are usually the ones that are crazy as well.
Remember population 436? Or any of those moviea where the town goes along with the stupid illegal shit that the thing in the town is doing.
Interesting theory about the town being haunted and unfriendly - especially since there's at least another Silent Hill reference (in Silent Hill 2, James Sunderland also searches a filthy toilet with his bare hands for an item).
If there is any possible way the events can be linked to white supremacists I guarantee an overwhelming federal response.
For the love of God it's a full moon out an @Nerd explains and @How to beat anime!!! Both dropped videos today, was that planned? Well that doesn't matter it's here. Ok thank you both this is amazing!
I don't think there will ever be a sequel to this movie but I hope so! Death game movies with an escape room theme are my favorite niche at the moment! Great video
As someone else pointed out - escape rooms asking for everyone’s cellphones is actually par for the course.
I've done 6 different escape rooms and never had my cell phone taken. They just mention that their usage to solve the puzzles isn't allowed and that's that
I live in the Northeastern US… I’ve done escape rooms in 7 different states and have never had my phone taken from me. They’ve only asked that we not take pictures/video. One place even said that we could use the flashlights on our phones if we needed.
My first escape room never asked for my phone
They also did standard legal stuff
I've done so many escape rooms, that is never something they do. The rooms are meant to be challenges of wit, and they will tell you not to use your phones if you aren't meant to. But they aren't immersive experiences, and you're not meant to be like actually cut off from anything. The doors are generally unlocked, you're just not supposed to open them without finding the right way unless you give up (or need to use the bathroom).
I like how everyone is suddenly escape room enthusiasts in the comments.
😂 That Karen spent the movie looking to speak with the manager (Josie). 😂
Nerd please keep up these weekly videos they're so good
I think the second they entered the house they were done for. The Explanation in the beginning of the “game” says the town was having supernatural visions and they finally realized it was centered around this house. I think the surrounding areas are affected and work to lure people to the house, but I feel like once you cross the threshold of the house, you’re trapped. The bottles of hallucinogenic used by Shamans to connect with the world beyond is most likely what was in the “tea”. And the disturbing images in the beginning screen reel were directly related to all of their “hallucinations” (i.e. the tree and the river with the woman, the giant dog/wolf etc.) The message was “5 villagers came to investigate and you must save them to win.” I wonder if all 5 had followed the rules, and won together, if they would have been released from the houses grasp. Like they ARE said villagers. I’m not sure because that first phone call that sent what’s his name running was basically a self fulfilling prophecy and he wouldn’t have run if she hadn’t found his body and then told him to run. So maybe it’s hopeless.
This movie reminds me of this one creepy pasta about a guy having to survive a house with a bunch of different weird rooms, + thinking he'd gotten out, but was actually still within its hold
Yes, thank you, I was wondering if anyone else thought that. It was called No End House if I remember correctly
You know you're having a hallucination when a mechanic writes no charge.
I like how he passively tries to find a way that being in a bathroom in a diner just off of a highway can be slightly bad
Hell yeah! Something to add to the list to watch later. I think Nerd Explains is one of my faourite CZcamsrs, if not _the_ top CZcamsr for me now.
They were definitely stuck in the loop (or some of them) when they sign the contract, if not sooner. I watched the movie after this and noticed there were clues to what they'd run into and even their deaths in the opening video shown to them, namely there was a distinct slide showing the boyfriend's death that looked like him. (I also think that the others, except maybe the father and daughter were already caught in the loop, if not they might all have already. Since there were no cars there, the detail with the film, the other guy knowing too much, acting weird, other things not mentioned in the video, etc). Edit: alternatively or additionally, they were stuck/"lost" when the first guy ran out (because of the story they were told by Josie and again, more things in the movie but not mentioned here).
Damn, a lot more Unbeaten ones than before. After getting passed all the funny movies where teens make dumb decisions and get killed we're left with a lot more complicated movies
If I was in a normal-ass house that's an escape room and it starts getting crazy and dangerous, screw puzzles, I'll go through a wall.
All those years of Dad training was for this moment
*starts fucking demolishing the house inside out*
I’m so glad I found you so early! It’s awesome to see this channel grow from it’s early stages of activity; I also enjoy listening to your monologue while I play games or write. Thank you for uploading!
He somes how keep pushing out quality content it’s just insane!
I love how the fog producers/dry ice in Melianie's tea from 6:24 and on have just gone overboard. Shooting mist three inches out of the cup.
Love your videos man! Makes my day when I get off work and see you have a vid up. I get ready to watch like I'm watching a movie lmao
Wow quick release! thanks for the awesome content as always
Awesome videos mate. We are all prepared for whats to come in life
People always wait way to long to arm themselves in these movies. As soon as I realized I was actually locked in there I'd be digging through the drywall with a broken table leg spear.
Seriously gave me chills. Good video
Also just wait in one spot for 12 hours. Your double should show up in that place and boom time paradox.
Cadaver room had surgical tools. Tools are weapons but, can still be used in other ways. A scalpel can be used to cut a hole in the drywall or plaster and even if there are gears and the like underneath they can use objects from around the house to disrupt the mechanisms. Also, skeleton key style locks are notoriously easy to pick open. There's no reason that they couldn't have taken apart the grandfather clock and fashioned the hands into improvised lock picks, even novices to lock picking can get lucky and unlock a lock.
Both cinema summary and dead meat took a break for a bit. Thank god you and your videos are just as good ❤️ Thanks for the content man
one of the paintings on the wall is "the crying boy" which is infamous for being cursed and actually producing physical tears even though it's just a painting. Nice subtle touch to the movie
The good things about these videos is they learn you how to survive and have fun
Geezus christ, this one is horrifying. I don't necessarily think that the cliffhanger ending is all that good, but at the very least this one is definitely unbeaten and as you pointed out it's impossible to tell when you were screwed.
Another nerd video is always a good day.
Congratulations on 1 million! Been watching you for a while great channel keep up the good work
I love watching videos that are summarizing movies like this. Even though the movie may be bad, I’m always intrigued by movies like these
0:06 probably cry
Same
Next video: how to beat antlers???
as someone who worked at an escape room 1. i hate these movies because they make actual customers VERY scared of actual escape rooms and makes them prone to over reacting and breaking things! 2. a lot of the tech in these rooms are very close to accurate! With the use of electromagnets, servos, light capturing tech, pressure switches, etc you can make an entire room work and move without the use of physical locks! Doors, drawers, hidden caches, puzzles, etc can all be activated without any help from the operator! not allowing cellphones or cell phone usage is common whether it be for googling answers, use of flashlights to break immersion, or customers taking pictures of solutions and posting them.
This seems a bit amusing to a certain degree. I don't think people would be participating in escape rooms without movies that draw attention to the existence of escape rooms. At the very least I don't think business would be nearly so good without them.
Plus it's kind of in the name. When trying to escape something...some people will panic a bit. Otherwise businesses should really just be calling them puzzle rooms. And just keep the entrance door open so there's just puzzle solving and no...escaping needed.
@@Flaris the door is left unlocked in all escape rooms as the goal of an escape room is to work your way through a narrative through puzzles and activities to solve a problem or question you are given before you enter the room. The escape room community is incredibly rich with conventions, blogs, enthusiasts, and mainstream coverage in news media so movies that demonize them are not a big draw.
Hi
Wat
Hello
@UC4MdorTZ0iMZr5zV4Fhhytg I’m like the 4th comment, this guy got first tho.
@@ascendedheavendio7652 Hey
konichiwa
Great video. Haven't watched it yet, but I'm sure it's good.
Each one of his videos is better than the last. It's rare you find a content creator generating such a high quality product on a consistent basis like that. The decimal point on the number of subscribers needs to be moved over to the right (no, I'm not affiliated with this channel in any way).
Nerd Explains makes every movie interesting
Its alwats a good day when Nerd Explains uploads
So true🍞🧀🥓🍞🍆🔥💀
The overall theme reminds me of 1408, which is also unbeatable.
Like in War Games, the only way to win is not to play the game.
i hate Raid and the ads but i have to give u props for that introduction. U got me in the first half ngl. ❤️
The town could be like Derry from Stephen King's IT, with everyone under the influence of the Inventor, just like most adults in Derry were more or less influenced by Pennywise's reality-altering abilities.
Just started watching your videos. Gotta say I love em. But it wasn’t until the General “Mad dog” Mattis quote that it hit home for me. USMC veteran appreciating that!!! 😊😊
Now do how to escape raid shadow from sponsoring you :)
ive watched a lot of horror in my life, and i cant believe im shaking in terror from a movie explanation, amazing movie and well done explaining
Should have said “but you won’t be able to escape this big bad scary raid shadow legends sponsorship”
Thank you for posting this type of content, idk why i like it but i do, on bad days ill be like “maybe nerd explains or cinema summary posted today, that would cheer me tf up”
I feel they could've lived by just reading the contract. Looks off then don't sign and leave. If for some reason you can't then im sure everyone else would probably decline as well.
“I don’t care if it’s an earring, toe ring or onion ring! If it looks like a key, I’m putting it in my pocket”
🤣 you just earned a sub and like, sir.
I did one escape room. It was themed around being kidnapped by a serial killer. We were all blindfolded and led into a room before being handcuffed to a bed.
People always joke about how "that wasn't an escape room" when I tell them about it. Is funny
If it involved puzzles than it is but with added flavour.
I personally wouldnt opt for the kidnaping in the menu.
Im there for the puzzles not to be blindfolded and draggen to an unknown location by strangers cuz you actually never know if the whole thing isnt just a front.
@@user-cr4cj1fl8z well the kidnapping was literally just
At the escape room facility, lined up in the hallway, given blind folds, led 10 feet through a door, handcuffed to something.
Huge fan keep up the great content!
Im gonna comment the thing for the video you just uploaded and turned comments off
AMOGUJS
Waiting for the day nerd explains releases: how to beat RAID on CZcams
1:24
I laughed way harder than I should've at this 😆
Honestly, the escape room would've been my last out of everything.
I would have loved going bowling.
@@mirandalynn19 Me too! I love bowling/duck pins, well and movies and mini golf.
Ayo the humor is pretty good and unexpected since U do it so subtly. Keep the good consistent content comin my guy.
You can survive by not showing up in the first place. Mind blowing :0
Or just get a reliable fucking car
Horror movie: Exists
Common sense: Alright imma head out.
“Notify our friends and/or loved ones of what we’ll be doing. You know, basic common sense stuff.”
Man, I don’t notify people whenever I’m about to go to an event or something. ‘Oh yeah, I’m going to go check out that haunted house I heard about. Might as well notify my dad or friends where I’m going to just because.’
Same for me 😂 I’d only do send that type of text to a homie if I’m really creeped out by where I’m going (which hasn’t happened)
Your car broke down in a remote area and you decide to venture away from your car and the public eye.
It's common sense in that situation, not so much in others.
I think that's what Nerd Explains meant.
@@indirectinsult thats absolutely what nerd explains meant
