- Does this film handle this deep message well?
Here is some info about the channel:
Greeting ghouls and ghosts! Our names are Jason and Kali, and we are the horror couple of your dreams- or nightmares! Jason has been a film nut for over 30 years, and Kali has a hyper-fixation with horror and slashers. Together we spend most of our waking life watching films and obsessing over them. We record movie reviews and discussions weekly, and love watching and talking about both lesser known and popular films in the horror genre. Occasionally we also review comic books, video games, television series, and novels. Additionally, we also enjoy making short horror videos.

This is one of my favorites! I saw it as a little kid and it really stuck with me.
I think what you said about this movie that it should have been him going through a “what if” situation where he lived after the war and slowly things go bad because he is, in fact, dying…I think that’s exactly what’s happening to him. It’s like “A Wonderful Life” but backwards in a way. That’s how I took it. He got to see a glimpse of his life if he would have lived and then things go bad quick because he’s actually dying and transitioning. Just how I took it
Makes sense
Im team jason on this one
🤔
There's a fantastic quote in mash where Hawkeye was talking to the priest..... And he said war is worse than hell because bad people go to hell but war hurts everybody
War does hurt everyone
Hey guys. Sorry I've been gone so long I had to move houses.
Welcome back ❤️ how’s the new place?
I saw this movie for the first time a couple years ago. I really enjoyed it and the horror elements really worked for me. I think the ending is a product of when it came out. Nowadays I don’t think they would have ended it quite that way.
And agreed… war is the worst. I’ve personally seen how it can tear a person apart and it’s really sad, not to mention the impact on whole cultures and countries. I’m not much into action movies, but I love a good war movie because it’s horrific no matter if it’s a horror movie or not. Just a reminder those things and worse are happening every day. Which is not nice to think about, but needs to be known.
ALSO, I think you both make good points when it comes to trigger warnings. I think it would be nice if there were more warnings for people who are sensitive to certain subjects. They shouldn’t be excluded or have to avoid a whole genre or type of media. We already have ratings so slap on some extra warnings for those who might want to know what they’re getting into. Just do it in a way that doesn’t spoil it for those of us who have dark souls. lol However! I do think you have to be responsible for your own mental health and if you come across something that is upsetting to you, then you shouldn’t be upset with anyone but yourself. Don’t hate on an art form because it displayed something you found disturbing.
Good thoughts. Thank you
Born on the 4th of Jul was gut-wrenching & a true story.F the V N war.
I'm against trigger warnings because they are already telling people they can't handle what they are about to experience. People need to take personal responsibility. I also believe in exposure therapy so that's where I'm coming from.
👍🏻
1000% understand why people love this. I understand how necessary a story it is to tell. And I get the visual benchmarks this movie set. But all that said. I had this movie spoiled for me. Even if it hadn't been spoiled I think I would have deduced it early. So the movie just never hit for me. So it's a weird Exorcist situation. Where I totally get the appeal and influence. But bored by the actual experience.
We all have those movies
Like orig JL, Rambo, & Manchurian Candidate, esp the orig.
Here's the thing about trigger warnings: Who cares? If they don't apply to you, just ignore them. Is that so hard? There is absolutely no reason to get so worked up over them. Do you not see the irony of getting upset about this? It's just a bit of text on the screen for a couple of seconds before the movie starts. Does it hurt your viewing experience? If so, maybe they should put trigger warnings before the trigger warnings...😉
Have not seen this movie in soo long! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! Absolutely love this channel 😌
