In the Fear Street trilogy, we follow a time hopping story all about a deadly curse that plagues the town of Shadyside. We're diving into everything about the movies, including breaking down the expansive story, what is truly behind the curse, how the killers work and explaining the ending along with how it adapts the original books that could clue us into the series going forward.

I'm still chuckling at the fact that Sunnyvale is about to probably get hit by a load of misfortune to make up for all the shit Shadysiders had to put up with for centuries.
You don’t even know bro😂
Looks like shady sides bout to get better
Oooooh yeah. Magic does have a cost.
But then shady side will become exactly like sunny vale, I think that would be kinda cool actually for the 4th movie, sorta like the whole history repeats itself theme through out the three movies
I know I will sound sadistic, but they (Sunnyvale) deserve it. From what we saw even from a young age they whould mistreat Shadysiders for no reason (they didn't even bother to meet them), I can only imagine Shelia or those other brats having to work in a Shadyside mall for extra money since the jobs in Sunnyvale probably went down the drain. Just imagine Shelia having to serve Ziggy at Mcdonalds or a trift store...
We also finally get a Netflix movie for teens where the "teenagers" don't look like early 20s Instagram models
In the words of Kennie JD 🎤🎵🎶25 year old teenager 🎶😝
Which makes it weird because there's active sexual tension and some sexual scenes... sorry but I don't particularly care for high schoolers getting down and dirty.
funny considering the lead actress of 2 of these movies, who played Dina, is in her late 20s being closer to 30 than 15.
Totally not looking at u Riverdale.
@@TheSCPStudio well the film targets teenagers so that's not really unexpected
I was so upset when Kate and Simon died, they were my favorite of the friends. Especially Simon. “We have to clear her air way”
Simon was my favorite character!! Poor Simon :(
@@damnitneilthenameisnuwanda7937 me too
YEAH SIMON WAS AMAZING HE WAS SO FUNNY AND LIKEABLE
Main reason i think sam should have died
Josh was the best character in the trilogy. I liked his lowkey character arc that they gave him of gaining more courage. Also, they would literally have not gotten through anything without his plans.
His sister was the worst character. Pure selfishness
@@greatgallade fr she's so unlikable in my opinion 😭
Glad there is some love for Josh. Such a smart, adorably nerdy kid! I'm so happy he survived.
@@greatgallade I hated Deena in the first movie but I ended up liking her in the third one
@@UnboxingAlyss Josh was my only fav Immediately liked him from the start
man that breadslicer scene really made me recoil at just how gruesome and shocking it was because up until that point we hadnt really seen someone important get doinked and I thought this movie would cheesily let them survive now that theyve atleast gotten this far and had so much character development. Boy was i wrong
Same! It was shocking in being a brutal kill and a shock to have a major character killed off. I originally thought that she would be able to turn it around on her attacker but he would reform but...
Golden chainsaw for sure
@@realrealwarpet haha yes lets hope James A Janisse covers this trilogy
@@SpiderElm Sounds like it will be sometime inbetween or after his re-do of the Friday the 13th Kill Counts either on Sundays or sometime in September or October. He mentioned them in his most recent livestream!
Yeah definitely that kill got a "oh NO WAY!" Reaction out of me
The fear street books were often extremely gory, especially the death scenes. They were nothing like the goosebumps series except that they were both technically horror for kids. But fear street was more for teenagers leaning towards young adults while goosebumps was more for 8 to 12.
yep. I loved the Fear Street books and they def were gory and fun. I still own most of the series
Yah I was surprised when he said he was expecting it to be "tame". I still remember some of the kills in "Trapped" which I read back in 5th grade. These books were nothing like goosebumps.....
@@phalti5510p million
That's the thing i was trying to figure out. I remember reading some that were gory, but surprised it was a kid's horror. I think you're right about it being aimed more toward teens though. I enjoyed them.
R. L. Stein I an interview for these movies said one of his favorite deaths he did was in a recent Fear Street book where a guy got covered in honey and oats while his kid watched him get eaten by horses. He's still out here with the brutal kills.
I'm still in shock from Kate's death. I loved her as a character, but goddamn her death was bloody gruesome and creative.
fr!! i loved her character and hated that she died, but the way she was killed was soo creative.
Yeah there's something great about seeing a cutie get mf sliced by an industrial bread slicer didn't think I'd watch that in my lieftime
@@JewishMcFly-pg3mc what a weird thing to say.
I agree. I felt bad for her death and Simon's, but they were necessary to keep the movie interesting. If they hadn't at a couple of likable characters that would have made the movie anticlimactic and boring. I was actually hoping for their deaths.
IKR ME AND MY FRIEND WERE LIKE NO THEY ARENT GONNA DO THAT AND THEN IT HAPPPENED
I feel this trilogy is very different from any other trilogy in that connected, it feels like one long 6 hour movie. And that's exactly how I watched it. I get how Netflix spread it out over three weeks, but the flow of it and payoffs from previous movie when watched all at once, makes for a way better and more satisfying experience.
100 p
what about Back to the Future?
100% agreed
I just spent today watching all 3 back to back, and I can say I FULLY agree with you.
I just made my mon watch all 3 back to back… she freaking loved it
This really felt like a love letter to the adults who were R.L. Stine fans as kids, which is why I appreciated the adult content. It was nostalgic enough to bring me back to being terrified while reading one of his books under the covers, but definitely didn't feel like it was meant for a younger audience.
and they're the only ones who figured out the truth, since Sarah hundreds of years ago
Thank goodness someone commented on this, that took me OUT 😭 I thought I crossed into another dimension when it happened
i came here to do this haha
And they are the only ones in hundreds of years since Sarah discovered the truth hundreds of years ago.
And they're the only ones who figured out the truth, since Sarah hundreds of years ago
Jesus Christ, it was so well deserved
I was so confused why everyone gets stabbed in the stomach and run around like it was a flesh wound
They’re trying to stay alive lol. Adrenaline. It’s it said in times of stress most people don’t even realise they’ve been stabbed or shot because of all the adrenaline and fighT or flight reaction.
@@AndSoWeLaughed yup my friend got shot and didn’t even realize right awayx
@@67BudD how did they get shot
@@fearglitchdragon7237 prolly with a gun
@@amikkelll i know that, but what i meant was what caused them to get shot
“Put the hormones on hold, kids, there’s a Killer on the loose!”
Riverside in a nutshell
I think you mean Riverdale but yeah
I think you meant Riverdale
@@kenz2454 I did yes
also friday the 13th
It's important to note that adults do NOT step in at all during the events of this show.
Ziggy and Martin are both adults.....
There are a few adults-I think you mean parents-but as elaborated on-shadysiders have shit lives and once the curse is gone-it seems people start improving and situations start getting better for the characters at the end.
That is because they all got kidnapped by the two dudes in your profile picture.
When do they ever in RL Stine's works?
I think it would be similar to IT if anything: the curse is so overarching that the adults don't really care unless they've been directly affected or "touched" by it like Ziggy. Martin just went along with it cause he was pissed off and then he saw how much deep shit it was.
1978 was my favourite too! Not for the nostalgia though, I just thought all the emotional beats were the strongest in the second part, Cindy really carried all of them for me personally (conversations with Alice in the caves, her reconciliation with Ziggy, her memories of Tommy as she killed him, etc etc)
Just what I wanted to say!
I loved Cindy and her character development. I thought Ziggy was Cindy and was a little bit happy that she wouldn't die but then when she died I was like nooooo😭😭
Omg i thought this whole time he was saying Sydney in the video so couldn’t understand how they were setting up the survivor to be anyone but ziggy
Same
It’d be pretty cool if they made another movie solely for the killer’s backstories, I’d really be interested in the Grifter and that Babymask dude with the bat
That would be awesome
Billy barker is the baby face killer (his face was deformed)
I really wanna see Billy's story and ruby's although ruby basically just killed her boyfriend and friends at a party so technically its just "scream" lol but I think the trilogy was very well executed and the actress who played younger ziggy is definitely gonna be a well known actress throughout her life!
She is lol! its sadie sink!! she plays Max from Stranger Things
I think what would make Rubys story particularly interesting is that she's, presumably, the only one to break away from the curse long enough to end her own life and semi cap the death.
I wanna know about killers after Cyrus but before the Grifter in 1904. Like 3 centuries and the murder seems to happen every 13-18 years so there had to be about 20-22 killers in total so I wanna know about them too.
But yeah Billy’s story is a must. I also wanna hear about Humpty Dumpty killer.
@@hansikarose51 right, but OP means like, a Big star.
@Mr. Graves ok so.. each movie would have each killer just repeatedly killing people in the one fashion that they do. And all have the same backstory as to why they are killing.....
I love that the ending was a call back to Sarah saying that one day her and Hannah would live out their promise of being together in the daylight :’)))
Also to note that I just noticed while watching this is that the red moss is actually what Hannah had on her crown when they finally had their intimate moment in the woods. I was left wondering why they showed the crown being left behind especially since when they accuse them they don't use it as evidence but now it's bc the moss is what was on the Hannah's crown.
@@chococat2119 I noticed that too!! The parallels are so crazy and I love how it all comes together in the end🥺 they really paid attention to all the little details and I love it :’))
OMG YOURE RIGHT QWQ
@@frankieverse99 It's not confirmed in the movies but Emily Rudd and Leigh Jeniak stayed Cindy is a lesbian. Yes she did have a boyfriend but she she wanted to be perfect to beat the curse. The polo shirt represents her ideal, the facade she puts on and the red moss represents Sarah and Hannah's love, something people consider wrong or immoral. The immoral 'ruining' her facade.
I caught that on a rewatch!
At first it seems like younger horror, until you see the deaths. They get freaking graphic.
Right? I did not expect Kate to go out that graphically, if at all
@@fionahunter1669 And the kids in the church were graphic as hell
Kate’s death shocked me the most in the entire trilogy. Considering she had more of the final girl kickass characteristics
The kills looked so so good! They did a great job with this trilogy and the kills were definitely the best part
She was fighting and everything I saw that death and was like OK I’m in
1666, Solomon didn't give Sarah a knife, he gave her a case. Though I'm glad you caught the "blood will fall" point of the nose bleeds
Can you explain the “blood will fall,” point of nose bleed???
@@S0lidStewie "When she is near, blood will fall"
Blood falls from every Characters nose when they've been in contact with Sarahs bones.
Sam 94, Ziggy 78, Deena 94 (part 2)
They received a vision from Sarah when the blood falls on her bones & their touching them.
Alice gets her vision from touching the glob of ?souls?
She sees the killers killing & the ones killed.
But her nose bleeds because she's right near the hand, doesn't look like she touched it till after her nose bleeds. Since she has to dig for it.
But she's the one that figers out the saying
@@luv2bevl1 oh wow makes sense that’s how you would know ur near the body of the “witch!”
Amending, that Deena is the 1st 1 to get a nose bleed on the bus (when she is near).
Thus making the crash happen. Thus causing Sam to touch the bones.
@Phoenix 𝙾𝚙𝚎𝚗 𝙼𝚢 PROFILE Yeah, that's definitely questionable.
But also know that the Mind can push the Body far when adrenal kicks in.
Anyone else notice at 40:09 the video plays the same audio twice lmao!
Came for this exact comment
@@1mariville lmao same
@@1mariville I did too lol just heard the edit mistake
me too lol
Just heard that and I was like “did I just hear that or did I hit my phone”
That Kate kill really threw me off. I did NOT expect any of them to die because of the nature of the genre. I was ecstatic for a second cuz they weren't cowards and killed 'em, but then I realized I like Kate and was like awe man wait a second
Lmaooo that was my reaction exactly
Same her death hurt me
Fear Street is basically Goosebumps meet Halloween
While I wouldn't dare speak for the master R.L., I'm sure he would love the everloving fuck out of your assessment.
I would say it's more like Stephen King took control of R.L.Stien and the books are the amazing combination of the two minds
@@brooklynnrichardson1149 👑 I think you dropped this
1978 is alot more like Friday the 13th part 2 Jason in that film had like the exact same sack for a mask in that one and its about a camp lol
I also thought it was interesting how the person who does the summoning isn’t automatically protected from the killers and can be put in harms way. When the young Nick summoned Tommy and Tommy almost ends up killing him.
Thing is he was protected. Nick got hurt but Tommy didn't kill him like he was killing other shadysiders
This was Nick’s first time cursing someone, so I think he didn’t entirely get the rules. I’m thinking the Goode picking names usually has ways to stay out of harm. It’s also possible Nick let himself get hurt to make himself even more of a hero in everyone’s eyes. Very few people were JUST injured that night, after all.
He only got hurt bc he was in the way. If you pay attention to 1978, the only people killed are Shadysiders. Kurt was only in the shower when Joan was killed, but Tommy completely ignored him. Tommy also didn't finish Nick off, though he could have. Not only is Nick protected, but so is all of Sunnyvale. Nick took the hit meant for Ziggy, bc he liked her. (Just not enough to support her or, you know, stop the curse.)
@@HeyElizabethPrice very true, I actually always wondered why he didnt kill Kurt, but now that actually makes sense.
@HeyElizabethPrice As much as it angered me that he didn't fully support her (mostly because I was rooting for her obvi), I honestly didn't expect much from him because of the feud between the Goods and Fiers in the books. I also found it interesting that they actually kept that little detail from the books where the Fier men (or the one doing the cursing at least) will have a love interest or important person in their life, but will *always* put their greed and the curse above anyone else.
Characters changing their names from "Fier" to "Fear" feels like someone going from "Eval" to "Evil."
To be fair, elsewhere in the series in a book set in some Conan-the-Barbarian-esque time we learn the "Fier" name is based off "Fire" & thematically the family is often killed by exactly that. So it's more like a family named Offal whose members often die from disemboweling, who change their name to Affal, then finally change it against to become the Awful Family.
well sarah fiers name basically sounds like fear, which is the opposite of what she is, just like solomon, nick & the rest of the goode’s name is basically good, but they are the opposite
Really enjoyed this trilogy! It’s like a rated R Goosebumps experience! Definitely a great introduction to horror for people curious about the genre while also having solid atmosphere and references for veteran Horror-Heads. Would love more of these "extended" movies going forward! Now to watch the vid lol!
I was thinking the same thing
Remember when my brother told me about the movies and he said this was behind it and I said the cop and my brother didn’t hear me
It's was!
In my opinion the trilogy was absolute garbage. But I blame myself for sitting through 6 hours of complete trash. One of the biggest issues was 1994 felt NOTHING like 94. Hell, it felt more like 2004 to be honest
@@DarkCloudNC why’d you watch all 3 if you hated the 1st one? And if that’s the biggest issue you had with the 1st one, I’d say that shows you’re just incredibly critical lol
I throughly enjoyed how the story was told. Anyone notice how the killings at first felt like someone’s nightmare and then you are hit really hard with how real they were?
Anyone else realize that the curse ends when Sam, a former Shadysider but now a Sunnyvaler, is targeted by the curse?
It didn’t end when sam came to sunnyvale if your talking about 1994 in 1666 her and deena just find a way up to nicks house
@@HoldHandsHerron I was talking about how Sam moved from Shadyside to Sunnyvale before the film.
My 1 sole question is how the f*** does Simon walk and run just fine after his achilles tendon gets clearly sliced without any real medical attention?
I never thought about that until it was pointed out here. Its a very good point
Also how is Deena just fine after getting stabbed in the stomach
@@sammie4306 thats adrenaline
@@craigborth8047 Makes sense
Not to mention so many characters get stabbed in the stomach only to continue for the rest of the movie like nothing happened.
I LOVED this trilogy I felt like they did a thorough job of connecting everything and explaining/showing all the little details that came full circle. I felt like every moment was important to absorb to piece everything together and things moved quickly because of that (didn't think the story dragged). As others have mentioned I'd love for the other notable serial killers that were prominently featured on screen to have their stories told but only if they're told in order and open and shut such that they don't create holes in the trilogy. However, wouldn't mind seeing the domino effect each has after the other as far as how it impacted the residences like Ruby Lane clearly did with her mom.
I’ve been meaning to watch these movies from what it looks like in this comment section it was actually surprisingly good I did however watch the first 15 minutes of the first part of the fear street series wasn’t bad at all reason why I’m so hesitant to watch it is because I’m very picky with horror movies nowadays because they’re not made the same as they used to be. It doesn’t have to be a movie made in the 70s or 80s but very low quality horror movies that are just made for scares and get people to buy tickets just because of money resulting in a horrible movie is what does it to me. BUTTT BUTTT!! This common section looks promising and a lot of the comments are very reassuring definitely will give this a try
@@IsaiahGuerrieri go in with an open mind. I go into every horror movie assuming the worst because this genre is plagued with bad movies. But I was beyond surprised with what we got
Bro foundflix sliidddddeee bro
it was an awful trilogy
@@IsaiahGuerrieri t m
We need more horror trilogies like this good plot, great pacing, and that twist *chefs kiss*
And without having to wait 5-8 years to finish.
@@cortesjose209 fr this only took like 2-3 to finish the trilogy
American horror story needs to take notes. This was really well done. I love horror movies/shows that show character development and have an actual good plot.
I'm a huge AHS fan and I have to agree. They have had some good seasons (1984, Cult), but some really bad ones (Hotel, Roanoake). They are much more campy, though. I do appreciate them for what they are. It's like when everyone compared AHS to Hill House. I love both, for different reasons. Same holds true for this. This was far better in quality, characterization, plot, and score, but there are things I like about AHS, too (depending on the season).
No
I think its a bit easier making a horror trilogy than a full show like AHS you need alot more filler for television same with the scream series but I do think you are correct
Well American horror story is based off of American tragedies or American horror stories if you will, also it’s a show and not a movie you can’t compare them
@@UnboxingAlyss I love roanoake... i just really like the style
I've personally never seen the trilogy for myself, but after watching this, it really is reminiscent of the Goosebumps books I read as a kid.
My wife smiled and recognized the story but did spoil it. It was a great watch, good slasher film and its been awhile.
You god damit it's you
So.... We meet again.
R. L Stine also made goosebumps.
The Fear Street books were R.L. Stine's series that was for a slightly older audience than Goosebumps if I remember correctly. I read both book series as a kid. Goosebumps was for like elementary-middle schoolers, and Fear Street was for middle school-high schoolers.
Them being the only ones to find out the truth since Sarah hundreds of years ago was so important it was said twice
Or it was just a honest editing mistake. 🙄
@@jonathanporter5223 It's just a joke dude.
I thought that something was changed in the Matrix and Agents were after me.
@@jonathanporter5223 Oh sorry, I didn’t realize this was a no sense of humor allowed thread. My bad.
Foundflix repeats the line “and they’re are the only ones to find out since Sarah hundreds of years ago” I wonder why
Mistake in editing probably
@@PSL416 Definitely a double take he forgot to edit out. Oh well.
Was looking for this comment. Thought I was bugging out or something. 😂😂
@@depressantdrugRight, i was bout to say aw hell nah! Witch, I rebuke thee!
Yeah that was weird
I felt the series as a whole was *chefs kiss* The twists, the kills, the suspense. Loved it.
Respect to them for also killing off main characters. A lot of horror movies in this style tend to keep the good guys alive for the entire film. It takes balls to do that and they pulled it off.
I mean I guess but a lot of the worst horror movies I know tend to kill everyone. Then, when the last person seems to have finished the threat, it comes back at the last second and kills her.
I hope the rest of the ghosts get their own stories in the series. Like that creepy mask wearing kid with the baseball bat *shudders* 😳
Yes, like I was hoping to find out that one as well.
I was kind of disappointed we didn't get more from my little buddy there
I have heard that the director would be interested in making more, but wants to do one about the Milkman.
i think we need more of the grifter
Same! His story seems sad. He was “deformed” and was bullied, but was never known to retaliate :(
My favorite of the trilogy is 1978 too, which is odd for me cause I never liked summer camp horror, but the supernatural side of this won me over. And I kinda fell in love with Tommy Slater and his super sad story, and the fact that’s it’s one of my fear, that my boyfriend turns on me
Tommy is really the only one of the Goode family’s sacrifices that you get to see what happen to, and he seems like he really was a good person. If he hadn’t been the one who was cursed, he probably would have died protecting other people. You kind of find out about Ruby Lane and Pastor Miller, and the both also seem like good people. Nurse Lane said her daughter was a sweet girl with the voice of an angel. Pastor Miller only had a few scenes, but one of them shows him basically playing the the children in town and he seemed to really enjoy amusing them.
That pastor scene with the thudding he was doing really got my skin crawling
Cyrus was by far the most unsettling killer. Not just the fact that his murder victims were specifically only the children, but how brutally he killed them before gouging out his own eyes and just standing there, muttering and banging the table with his hook.
Ruby and that little boy was the scariest to me. Omg it gave me chills. I really hope they make a show explaining how they became killers. Like episodes dedicated to each killer and their life leading up to the killings.
Compared to Goosebumps, the fear street books were NOT tame. There’s a handful of deaths in them that still are super memorable to me. The gateway was definitely already opened if you were reading Fear Street. Haha.
Yeah everybody was telling me they like the 1978 short. Even though it was the 1970s it definitely had a 1980s slasher vibe to it.
Technically it’s a 70s vibe cause the first slashers every created were black Christmas and Halloween which came out in 1974 and 1979 respectively-but there is elements of sleep away camp and Friday the 13th in there too so I’m speaking on technicalities here
@@CurtyTails Halloween was 78. But it still had a much more 80s feel than 70s. Huge Friday the 13th and Sleepaway Camp vibes.
@@codymclemore4816 How the crap do people get '80s vibes from it? It absolutely feels like the '70s.
@@alita8900 that's true lol it's basically just putting gen z in different time periods. 1978 felt the most authentic.
i just realized the attempt at bookends with the first knife attack being 'dodged' by a book, and Deena using a similar tactic at the very end of the trilogy.
The trilogy was actually interesting…I watched it with my parents who weren’t impressed until 1978…after the opening to 1978 they were hooked lmao
The third movie/entry was my favorite. I loved seeing the 1600s and how things happened.
I cried buckets when Sarah Fier was hung! She had been through so much. She deserved a happier ending.
@Phoenix 𝙾𝚙𝚎𝚗 𝙼𝚢 PROFILE Same!!
Dude I swear to god I was crying my gay little heart out at those last few scenes it was so heartbreaking i got legit chills when I finished the trilogy
The way they treated her at the end made me sick to my stomach… these movies really had a way of making you feel a bunch of different emotions.. good and bad… truly a masterpiece
Same! Sarah was so sweet & misunderstand. Solomon’s such a bastard for what he’s done
One day at Horrorland was really unsettling to read. It was a psychological thriller and I felt panic as soon as they lost their parents. I hope they make a movie about it
They have a TV version of it but a modern movie would be great
@@Tony_Pesta we all know the tv versions of things are mid. I also doubt they would be able to get the funding to truly convey how nerve wracking horrorland was but we can hope
two things i have noticed after watching the trilogy & then this: initially it seems merciful that nick doesn't want ziggy dead, but she lives the rest of her life in complete fear & isolation. there could have been much more he could've done to help & comfort her, instead he continues to be entitled & selfish & doing the bare minimum. practically psychological torture to leave the note "it's happening again"... why tell her if she's not in direct fire of the undead. they only care about getting that one person, so why tell ziggy?
second thing that intrigues me is ruby lane's self harm cuts she used to commit suicide. every other undead being had to be taken out by outside means or otherwise demanifested i assume. does this means that ruby was able to snap out of it at some level? whether she was was just horrified by the killing & wanted to end things or, thought that suicide might be the only way to end the killings because she otherwise knew she didn't have control for much longer?
much to think about.
For your first point, nick had a huge crush on ziggy so he kept her alive simply because he wanted her, she cut him off because despite him promising to her that he believes her about the curse, he reports that it was just a killer and has no mention of the curse. He always maintained his feelings for her keeping a track on where she lived but she didn’t want anything to do with him after he betrayed her trust.
For your 2nd point, it’s most likely Ruby lane wasn’t killed and therefore not completely engulfed in the curse. Similar to how Samantha could break free of possession slightly and how Ryan has a small glimpse of coming to reality when killing the girl at the beginning before being killed. As a result after the killings Ruby feeling that she has to stop herself decided to end her own life. With her mum seeing this which is what is her biggest drive to working as a nurse at camp and trying to find a stop to the curse. What’s really sad to know is that when the nurse found Tommy’s name on the rock she would’ve seen the most previous one was her daughter which most likely broke her and pushed her to try give Tommy a mercy killing
wtf is going on with yalls usernames & pics
In my opinion, these people were definitely the most pivotal part of uncovering Sarah's whole truth and story and need all the love they deserve:
Deena: She literally possesses Sarah Fier to learn the truth and kills Goode....I think that's enough said.
Sam: Was technically the one who found where Sarah's body was really buried.
Alice: Solved the whole nursery rhyme part about her hand and found it so that Deena and the others could reunite it with the body and go back to 1666 to learn the truth.
Christine(Ziggy) and Cindy: While Cindy did die, she was still the one who uncovered the whole cave and navigated her way through it in 1978. Ziggy basically told the whole events of 1978 and was the one who told Deena and Josh were the hand was.
Nick (no, this one doesn't need love): If you think about it, it was technically Nick who brought his own downfall by choosing to revive Ziggy in 1978, helping Deena and Josh learn the truth about the Goode Family
Very true.
I was waiting for this video ever since I finished the series, I love how you summarize movies and explaining the endings
As a avid book reader I don’t like how the Fiers are treated as innocents. In the books both families did bad things and that would have been the only thing I would change
If they had more then the 3 movies maybe they would have shown what the Fiers did afterwards.
Yeah, you kinda got the feeling halfway through the first movie that Sarah Fier was going to have been completely framed. This is not a complaint (aside from a level of predictability) but you could tell what socio-political bent the writing had, and with those leanings I doubted they’d play right into the old trope of the evil-witch-and-her-community-wrecking-ways.
I admittedly didn’t figure out it was the Sheriff until much later though…They got me good with he and Ziggy’s story. Makes me want to skim the books, even.
Though now that the goodwill groundwork is laid with this first trilogy, they might feel more open to subvert or play w/ those expectations without seeming regressive or old cliche on the opposite end.
What did Fier do in the book?
@@kinnyboy They falsely accused a mother and daughter of witchcraft. The father then cursed the family.
@@Boggsy. Don’t get me wrong I loved the Feat Street trilogy. Honestly even if it was terrible I would have enjoyed it cuz of how much I love the books.Just as a self proclaimed book nerd I prefer movies to follow the source material
This was an AMAZING trilogy, me and my roommate binged the whole thing in one sitting. It was a genuine experience both of us trying to piece together the mystery; screaming at the twists and cheering when we guessed right; not to mention all the characters were compelling & the gore effects were impressive. Finishing it, we loved pointing out all the foreshadowing and connections from the very beginning. There was never really a dull scene, unless you count the sex scenes which were kinda softcore porn i didn't really like, but otherwise it had a good mix of adult and young adult themes. I used to read these sorts of series as a kid and personally Goosebumps were for younger kids getting into horror while Fear Street was like the next level- relating more to teens growing into young adults. Which the movies really reflected.
I watched this as soon as it came out lol.I read R.L.Stine religiously when i was younger. I also couldn't help but notice that in the camp episode, shadyside had more people of color and wonder if that was an intentional or unintentional production choice. Either way I plan on owning this trilogy. It actually had me on the edge of my seat.
I loved reading the Fear Street Cheerleaders when I was a teen! The 3rd book is my fave!
I feel like they totally used that series as a big inspo for the first film especially the bus crash!
The Cheerleaders were my favorite Fear Streets too!!! I collected them all!
Yesssss
This series was sssoooo good. When I saw R.L. Stine's name but that it was a rated R horror trilogy? I was in! Kate's death was definitely the most shocking even above the childrens deaths. I loved that twist ending I never saw it coming.
Say cheese and die again was my favorite goosebumps book. They truly outdid themselves on this trilogy and i hope to see more!
i love how they made it into 3 movies instead of a series. imagine waiting for the seasons to come out
I love how the ending track, The Man Who Sold the World (both Nirvanas cover and David Bowie’s original) for both 1994 and 1978 hinted at the reveal at the end.
It's because that's the version that came out in that decade. That's why the Nirvana cover plays in 1994 and The David Bowie cover play in 1978
I love this trilogy, the only problem for me is that they kill good characters (like Kate or Cindy).
I absolutely LOVED Kate!
@@leahv5892 she was my favorite character from. The first movie but overall out of all the character I loved Alice since she got the most development.
If they dont kill good characters its a failure
Kate definitely gets the golden chainsaw for me
Kate and Josh deserved a happy ending😢
I would love to see another trilogy based off the 99 fear street trilogy of books. It's dedicated to a single house on fear street with a crazy history and a curse of its own. I loved reading it when I was younger. It has a very serious tone but it's easy for teens to relate to it.
Yoooooo fuck i wanna see that too!!!!!!
I love how the characters are immune from dying by getting stabbed.......
Adrenaline
The reason Ziggy didn’t die was because nick didn’t want her to. She was dead for like 2 hours but the devil brought her back

What if the R. L. Stine Cinematic Universe is a combination of Goosebumps stories and Fear Street stories all set in one universe of terror?
czcams.com/video/280U9-5v8I0/video.html This really felt like a love letter to the adults who were R.L. Stine fans as kids, which is why I appreciated the adult content. It was nostalgic enough to bring me back to being terrified while reading one of his books under the covers, but definitely didn't feel like it was meant for a younger audience.
I wouldn't touch the Goosebumps books as a kid because the covers scared me so much, but my favorite Fear Street books (out of the three or four I've read, lol) are The Runaway and The Prom Queen. I have my fingers crossed that they get adaptations some time soon!
I wonder how many people actually understand how much time and effort this video must have taken to make.....all I have to say is .... INCREDIBLE
This series is the first horror media in years that actually had me unsettled. The second part was my favorite, I love the ‘retro summer camp horror’ aesthetic. Makes me miss reading RL Stine’s book as a kid
I'll be honest I saw this was a trilogy and thought to myself "I can't wait till Foundflix does a video on this". Goosebumps for the win people!
My favorite goosebumps books were the ones with Slappy the dummy and the one with the evil sponge 🧽🤣
Yeah, it was "It Came From Beneath the Sink!" That book left me wanting more honestly.
I always liked a night in terror Tower and anything with monsters
@@AirQuotes yeah, "A Night in Terror Tower" was great, even despite it having a somewhat too happy ending in itself. And you've got a good slew of monster books, like "Please Don't Feed the Weirdo," "How to Kill a Monster," "The Girl Who Cried Monster," among a few others.
i was like really thinking these two EXACTLY i truly can’t believe u commented my exact thoughts 😭
@@kali9485 nice to meet you and pretty name you have too
The actor who plays Dina - her characters always get the crappy deal in life. I really like her as an actor.
I like how it isn’t afraid to get a bit gruesome. They know their audience well. Goosebumps always felt like a great entrance into the horror genre because it didn’t underestimate kids intelligence or bravery, and I like how this stayed true to the books.
I really enjoyed it. I read a lot of the Fear Street books when I was a teenager and they were new. I loved a few of the easter eggs that were sprinkled through the trilogy, like the name Deena being a reference to one of the main characters in The Wrong Number (the book seen at the beginning of the 94 chapter).
I only got my hands on a handful of Fear Streets from garage sales and such when I was a kid- the library wouldn't stock them, or any content they deemed "satanic." I can't remember most of the titles of the ones I read, but I remember every word I read and all the nightmares they gave me. R L Stine gave me so much of my childhood ❤️
Yeah "One Day at Horrorland" was a wonderful and hilarious book.
Finally someone commenting about what REALLY matters
@@Totentanz2440 question question is what was was after the meeting and how are we question what do a qquuqq u ugly and I don’t know Ed d as V C ng N v C C
The only thing I remember from the episode of this book was the monster pouring the juice from his finger and wanting a glass for myself
And then the choose-your-own-adventure "Return to Horrorland"...that was a personal favorite, and probably the thing that got me into tabletop RPGs like D&D.
@@onijester56 That's awesome. A lot of people said that "Return to Horrorland" from the 2000s series was a downgrade from the first one. But I've never read that book, and have been trying to find it despite what they say. D&D is really mad fun honestly.
I really liked how they gave Sam a gender neutral name and for the first 15 minutes you thought Sam was a boy. Very exciting surprise to see the main characters being gay and it not being used as a personality trait!
I'm pretty sure there is a Sam in the books but they decided to use "Sam" as a woman in the movie instead.
Right! I absolutely loved this mini twist, and i think it was great to see the parallels between their relationship and Sarah Fier’s
Wasn't the book, Silent Night in the Fear Street books also have a major female character named Sam?
@@mikigirl18 I remember PAM being a major character in those not Sam. Though I remember the name Samatha Fraser being in the books. Also The family from 99 Fear Street:The First Evil had the last name of Fraser
I kinda got pissed at myself for that. I did assume "Sam" was the guy. I was kinda mad that I just assumed. :-/
NGL, while I figured out the Goode Family had something to do with the curse origins, the Camp episode made me think that while young Nick knew about it, he didn't want to be part of it and it was his brother carrying on the "tradition". So the truth did catch me off guard.
"And they are the ONLY ones that found out the truth since SARAH hundreds of years ago"
When he said that i felt it
Maybe that's why he said it twice 😁
Bro , for a second I thought I was hearing things. Had to replay it to see that the audio looped.
Love the fear street series. I didn’t expect it to be that brutal but good. 1978 is my favorite out of the "three." The ending… made me question if there might be more or just a never ending cycle with the book.
Dude I want Dead Meat to cover this trilogy so badly JUST to hear James go “oh tats naice” anytime Deena and Sam have a moment
Well you're in luck because he's covering it this Sunday! 👀
@@reddove13 YEAH BOIIIIIII
It going go to Wednesday
First one is finished XD
@Sherri T[A]P Me!! To Have [S]EX With Me I could see that, with the exception that Fear Street is very mature in comparison, and very cleverly fleshed out compared to most Goosebumps stories.
At 40:10 i thought i was stuck in the matrix😂💀
i actually really enjoyed this trilogy even though i normally hate netflix original movies
Netflix movies are usually abysmal
Same!!
Originally fox was supposed going to distribute these movies to theaters. After Disney bought fox the distribution went out the window and Netflix aquired the movies.
FoundFlix being a Talking Heads fan warms my soul. We all need More Songs about Buildings and Food.
Really enjoyed the trilogy. The beginning of the first reminded me a lot of Scream, probably my favorite horror trilogy (original 3).
Edit: Lol, the Casey reference.
Thanks for making this video! I thoroughly enjoyed all three installments of FEAR STREET... and, like you prompted, I'm hoping for a continuation of the series! 😱
Wait, they DIDN'T immediately try suffocating Sam and giving her mouth to mouth? Like yeah, it's rough, but you can do it with a plastic bag and you just need chest compressions and mouth to mouth to revive her?
The important part was it was a joint effort. Sam just didn’t ‘not fight’, she sacrificed herself.
@@vysharra ok we know... did u read the comment at all
Okay but Deena had to drown her, but when trying to save her, they stabbed her with a bunch of epipens and didn’t even try mouth to mouth until like way later? I was screaming at the screen like “THATS NOT HOW YOU FUCKING DO IT”
yeah, i was upset about it watching but it was nice to see the pills bit about their characters come back, felt fufilling in some ways
I would have a hard time believing the teenagers, who were addicts, knew CPR. Where I come from, people need to be certified to preform CPR. I would agree with you if Deena was a life guard or had some connection to learning CPR
I really liked this trilogy. Really interesting story.
“A mustache cop,” lol.
Definitely a must watch because it’s so good. Kates death definitely got me because it was so gruesome but original.
My Inner Gordon Ramsay: *Finally, some good fucking food!* these movies are just right.
I really enjoyed this movie, it was fresh and really liked the three parts and ending was great to me.
How was the ending great
@@nixonesport1998 how wasn’t it
@@nixonesport1998 ❄️
This gave me everything I would’ve asked for. I appreciated it so much, plus there was essentially no plot armor and everything made sense. I loved it.
Also, they kept upping the quality as it went along.
I'm confused as to why they go passed the characters in certain scenes but then try to kill them in others
@@andrewoid4711 The killers are specifically after Sam, so when they smear her blood on their bodies they go after them.
The details in this were pretty good. For instance, after the hospital scenes in 94, when the sheriff notices the blood down the street where the kids shot Ruby Lane, you can see he walks with a slight limp. Then in 86 we find out why. Pretty cool
“Oh no, she drowned! What should we try, the Epi-Pens or CPR?”
“Hm, try the Epi-Pens.”
“Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.”
Sam went through so much abuse in these movies lol the fact she's still standing at the end of even the first one is ridiculous.
But I adored this trilogy
I read allll the goosebumps books I could get my hands on and tons of the fear street books. I still have mine thankfully. My favorite goosebumps book is Ghost Beach freaked out 7-8-year-old me!
Would love to see a rated R version of all the goosebumps books & fear street books.
FYI, RL Stine wrote a horror book for adult audiences. Think it's called red rain.
Just watched it yesterday and I have some questions and thoughts.
Why didn't all the killers appear? Why only some. And how many killer were there? There seemed to be 3+ stones full of names on them, the names of the killers. But this can't be as there was alot of names per stone. The victims names aren't written so it wasn't them.
Why did the killers avoid some people are then kill others? The killer ran past Josh, Simon and Kate in the hospital and Josh in the woods, but killed the cops in the mall and the nurses in the hospital, as well as Sam's bf. Its not like these people had Sam's blood on them. Seems if you have plot armour, you won't get killed, even if you were fighting the killers minutes before.
Why doesn't bleeding on Sarah Fier's bones give more info and why didn't Ziggy get more info? Surely the one person who survived the killers would be a good asset to take down Goode, especially since he was so young.
If Nick wanted to be with Ziggy, why didn't he date her? He knew the killers wouldn't come after her, but he let live in fear anyway.
What happened to Nick Goode's brother, the mayor? Just because Nick died, doesn't mean his brother can't continue the legacy. I would've thought because their is still an heir, the curse wouldn't just dissappear.
The killer went after the cops and people at the mall because he just became possessed and there was no blood left so he could kill anyone. The killers went after Sam because she bled on the witch's bones and the killers, as mentioned in part 3, the killers went after Sam because she bled on the witch's bones cuz they had to stop her from uncovering the truth about the killers and Sarah. Simon,Kate and Josh were just standing there and they were not in front of the killers, which means that the killers will only attack people who stay in their way when the killers are trying to attack the person who bled on the witch's bones, in this case Sam. Even if they have no blood, the killers can kill them if they notice them and are in their way.
There weren't all killers appearing because Nick Goode probably thought that one or two killers were enough to kill people or they were set for the trap so they can kill someone who falls in their trap, see in part 1 when Ruby Lane was singing, Simon came to her to ask her If she needs help but she tricked him and tried to kill him. Or maybe the killers were killing someone else already.
I love your videos! I’ve been a fan for a while and it’s so helpful that you explain these cause sometimes I feel really stupid when I don’t understand a movie and when I watch your videos I don’t feel so stupid ❤️ I love everything about your channel!! Sending lots of love from a fan ❤️❤️
The first entry in the trilogy I felt was the weakest, mainly because of Deana. I don't mind the fact that they made her into a gaslighter in the beginning as that is an opportunity for character growth, but the movie never really addresses and brings it to a resolution so there is no real arc in her character. I will say though it is a refreshing change of pace to have the trilogy get a happy ending. I like that Deana patched things up with Sam, and that Josh (aka the best character) got to finally meet Queen of Air and Darkness....Although, if they make a sequel trilogy, I hope that they don't mess with her and josh's relationship.
The first movie is my second favorite of the three, but I agree with Deana and Sam to an extent that they were very selfish, Deana especially. Like she didn't care enough that her two best friends died, like Josh met them that day and he showed more care for them. Also agreed Josh is the mvp of this movie.
Didn't like deena up until the end felt Kate should have lived and she died
@Remi Angelina It is a good trilogy of movies but I sort of feel like it would have made for a better mini series or anthology series with each season presenting a different story arc
Deena>>Nick
@@multichannel4274 Lmao exactly, I hate Deena but I hate Nick Goode more. I was actually rooting for the guy after part 2
40:08 felt like I was having a stroke for a sec there
Same
I’ve been looking all over for this comment. Honestly foundflicks fans are pretty cool
@FoundFlix just cursed us all
I thought I was buggin 😅
I’ve been looking forward to seeing this set. I’ve read all the fear street books as a child and I still love them to this day so seeing this being made just made me happy
I remember going from RL's C.Y.A. goosebump series to Fear Street: The Girlfriend. To keep it spoiler-free, it was fucking jarring compared to any of the goosebumps stories.
Dude I LOVE Fear Street (especially part 2)
I wish they showed more of the killer fight scene. I think the sequels should focus more on the other murders. There were like 50 names on the wall, they could make a TV show with each episode making up one of the murders... Or something like that. I just want to have them go into more detail about the previous murders
I grew up reading every fear street book I could get my hands on! I must of read almost every single Fear Street book written by RL Stine except 9 books. This movie or should I actually say all 3 movies, where done very, very well. I absolutely loved it! Thankyou also for putting this on your list. 🥰💖👍 love your channel as always! Foudflix is the best! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I've been saving this video as a small treat for myself haha, a whole trilogy explained is a great way to wind down after a particularly tiring day 😊
Thank you so much! After seeing the movies back to back, makes total sense now!
