This is probably my favorite found footage movie. It's really believable. Not too much goofy shit going on. And it's impressive that almost anybody could potentially make a movie like this. It's so impressively minimalistic.

I really enjoyed both the third and fourth ones, they’re different again but worth checking out. I think the main reason people didn’t like 3 is the move away from found footage style and the humour, but it worked for me

Possible spoiler: This movie would make an excellent double feature along with Timecrimes.

Great List Nate! You got a lot of different opinions compared to what I've seen a general public say...and I respect it. If I'm to say my list currently... 10. Tarot (Never saw the trailer, so was anticipated, saw the movie, and besides two scenes where they seem like they're doing something, ultimately felt missed potential and was pretty mad at just seeing the film play in that terrible trope format that we've seen with Bye Bye Man, Ouija, to name a few. 9. Imaginary (Besides one good actor, and the subtle smiles that I actually thought was clever for the bear to imitate, this film was just terrible. The teen acting was some of the worst I've seen all year. Fairly generic, and those that say the final act is the best, yeah I'm on the other side for that one. I thought that was just the worst part of the film, especially with that fakeout! 8. Arcadian (Padded out with no directions that interested me, and when it headed with the guy going with the girl to her home, I almost just wanted to quit the film. I hated the direction it went into, and I think where the film goes there, goes down hard. 7. Madame Web (So bad it's good. But, for real. The fact this film had such a large budget and pushed out what it did was an embarrassment. I only appreciated the small parts where IT ACTUALLY TRIED TO GIVE THE CHARACTER'S, actual character, but yeah, it sucks. 6. Somewhere Quiet (My first introduction to a film distributed by Quiver, and it wasn't a good one. Well directed, but the style is just a way to play out a story that is not consistent at all, no payoff, and it physically triggered me how I'm pretty sure the film was just showing someone who has lost themselves and can never go back, without any reason to back up why/just something that I hate. Depression taking someone over, without any payoff, any reason, or any reason why they showed us what they showed us. 5. Blood For Dust (Well Acted I will say. But, this film just felt incredibly dull to watch. It was just boring, and watching it through the entire runtime was painful.) 4. Wages Of Fear (Netflix just bringing anything on their platform. Hated the characters, despised the ending, and thought it was just a massive waste of time. 3. Strangers Chapter 1 (I kid you not, I haven't been infuriated with characters like this FOR A VERY LONG TIME. I hated this so much.) 2. Megamind Vs. The Doom Syndicate (Takes all the passion and love in the original Megamind and just ruins every character in any way it possibly can, with some of the worst juvenile comedy I've heard out of animation.) 1. The Mouse Trap/Mickey's Mouse Trap (I don't hate this because this uses the Mickey IP. I hate this because the film is just horrendous. No creative kills, nothing done with its concept, terribly executed, a meta joke here and there, but then the movie decides to push its own plot into stupidly. And easily, the worst budget abuse I've ever seen done on a film. The film was granted 800,000$, and the film seems like they spent 50$ - 250$. I am not kidding, it looks that bad. So, not looking forward to this. They actually made Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey (THE FIRST ONE) look like a freaking tolerable slasher. Screw this movie.

I enjoyed it and the only problem I really had with it was that lost shot. Sigrid would have been reported missing within a few days of not returning home and her friend knew who she was with, a well known multi millionaire, but we can see a couple of years have passed and Christian has somehow gotten away with it.

I liked the film, and quite liked the slow burn of it leading to a very contrasting turn of events in the last 2/5th's of the film. I would say that more (even some!) explanation, or at least 'examination' of the phenomena could have been displayed by the authorities, and the lack of such felt me feeling isolated with just the experience of the family members. The title of the film is playful.... it's not about how society handles the situation so much (thus no scientist chats or media news), but more so the family and loved ones reaction. I do like and admire this new wave of 'the returned' and society 'surviving it', and I do now have a soft spot for this film,... but I think the Scandinavians a tad pretentious in their almost hand-off approach - it's almost like they made half a film and left the rest up to the viewer to ponder. Perhaps a sequal? but change to 3rd gear perhaps?

Nate, ever tought of make a review of Moulin Rouge (2001)?

Wow I logged into UA-cam seemingly the exactly same time you uploaded this video 😂..1st view..

Main criticism from people that don’t like it is that it’s kinda all over the place plot wise… I’ll watch it, I loved the original growing up, watched it a lotttt, and have a sandworm weaving it s way through my arm as a tattoo, but I’m not excited by the prospects of these belated “legacy” sequels in general, when I do watch them they never live up to the original, but I think I wanna rent this one and hopefully enjoy it. I like bill and Ted face the music, this seems to have got the originals vibe right in the same kinda way..

Nice review but maybe also start off with a “for people who haven’t watched this film, there’ll be spoilers ahead” 😊

I thought this was a really cute movie, had fun with it and I thought the lead did a good job

Character building by Niel Marshall is spot on here and Dog Soldiers, he creates small social scenes that show you they're human beings

Nice!! I watched this for the first time last year. I'd be interested to know what you think of the sequels-- haven't seen them yet and not sure if they're worth checking out

My man, good review of a great movie. Thanks

Love love love this movie!! Great vid

Another one of my favourites 😂 I like the whole series, all 4 of them- the third n fourth have different vibes and move away from the found footage style though both still incorporate it (the third especially has a different tone which I think is why a lot of people didn’t like it when it came out) I think the whole series is worth seeing and very entertaining, so long as you know the latter two are different in style etc

Damn how on earth does this have 11k views, and 9 likes. Absolutely criminal

It’s garbage n makes no sense at all

Even for 2024, its very disturbing but funny at the same time. The ending was disturbing but comical at the same time. The dog cracked me up.

Did you ever watch Saulniers Hold The Dark? Terrible reviews but I didn’t hate it.

Character introduction with the mart fight is just top notch. I believe she's supposed to be a former "secret service" like team just because her former team had gun training. This FL did a very great job as the masculin female protagonist, the way she walks and talks is just badass.

Absolutely solid horror movie, it’s one of my go tos when I’m not sure what to watch but I want horror fun..

The claustrophobic feeling, along with the creatures, terrified me.

easy top 3 horror for me

He didn’t get it

I did love it! Yeah it follows some long used and well worn rom-com tropes, but it's really the first lesbian movie to do that, and that's exactly what I wanted! A lesbian rom-com that does the same stuff straight rom-coms have done for decades, but without falling into the same queer film tropes we're tired of. For once, it's NOT a coming out story, nobody's cheating on anyone, none of the love interests die in the end, they're not trying to hide their "secret love" or any of that crap. It's just a lesbian version of a straight rom-com and (sadly) that is what makes it so utterly refreshing! Because for whatever reason, Hollywood has just never bothered to do that before.

I thought the monster designs deserved a better movie but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

Digging your stuff

I found it "1hr 35mins of exhaling in exhaustive frustration" 😤 Having "tinnitus" myself, I understand the malady, but by the end of this tedious movie, I wish I'd have shot MYSELF in the head🙄

Loved it.

For me it was a hard watch

I have lately watched this movie and it was worth the time. Omg it is one of my rop 10 movies of all times ❤

It’s so good to see a movie about a child played by someone that age and not some 20 year old

Where to watch this😮thanks

I really don’t understand Blumhouse’s game plan the last few years-it seems to be to just release as many movies as possible, but they’ve gone to super low budget direct to streaming services type crap, and don’t seem to care about the quality of the product…are they just relying on the name making money for them? Just essentially scamming people with trash while they still have a brand some people haven’t figured out isn’t that great yet?… initially what they were doing with all the sequels and spin offs of all their franchises made a lot of sense as a business model-crap movies in general IMO, but it made sense…nowadays I just don’t know what they think they’re doing?…also interesting what you said about there but being a lot of horror in the movie- that seems to be a part if their plan nowadays too-really watered down, just jump scares no gore no tension etc (I don’t know this is the case but it’s what I’ve heard on review of a lot of their recent output…)

Perfect casting. I felt her awkwardness so much. The first scene said everything, when she was making her video to teach other people to have more confidence. You could see she was really trying to teach herself. I felt like giving her a big hug and telling her everything was going to be OK. I listened to an interview with Bo Burnham about casting and he said everyone he saw was pretending to be 'not confident' whereas the girl they cast played it the opposite way. She played it as a person who was naturally introverted but who was trying to act confidently.

The opening sequence was so bizarre

Catching up on your videos, Nate!

Great video sir! Im a new subscriber and am looking forward to enjoying more of your content. I was hoping this video would explain the ending, lol. I didnt fully understand what happpened at the end? Did the male lead "do" something (dont want to spoil anything for your other viewers) to the female antagonist prior to the beginning of this movie?

Nice one Nate! I think maybe seeing this on a big screen you would find it more harrowing... incredibly stylish (Tom Ford).. but yes.. yet another very expensive production about more rich white narcissists ultimately.

Just saw this today, rented it on amazon video. Such a delightful and heartfelt movie. Definately one of my favorites of the year.

Have you seen the movie Lamb from 2021 from A24? I just watched it and have mixed feelings lol

I loved this movie! Michael Shannon was so good in it

It’s exactly what you said- remake it in English for a lazy American audience. Most the time the audience watching these remakes have no idea they’re watching a remake anyway

This movie takes place over like 4-6 days, 1 event happens per day. The funniest example is when the family is dancing and Riley is talking to the neighbor. She doesn't meet up with them until nighttime, while they're STILL dancing after he's woken up in the morning. Like the conversation lasted 12 hours or something.

Gonna check out the channel, horror movies are my go to

I have watched this movie twice and I still don't like it? The actors are all awesome, but I just didn't like the story. Guess I just couldn't suspend belief. I'd rather watch the Exorcist.

Wait what, you thought his performance in Joker was weak? No way dude, he was awesome ❤

So basically this movie should be watched for the effects. So what is the bottom line on this movie, a multi generation demon curse?

Good review. Def agree about going into it blind - I did, though I'd heard about it years ago and kept meaning to watch it, I knew very little about it. I was familiar with some of Villeneuve's work so I knew to expect quality and he absolutely delivered here. A very hard watch at times but as you said, well worth it. I kept thinking about it for days afterwards, it haunted me. What the twins discover in the film shook me to the core - and that doesn't happen too often. It is powerful, heartbreaking and packs an awful punch.
