18:01 "I'm a big strong guy who can use my phone to call the police and get stronger guys" made me laugh so hard I had to pause the video. Eric is nobody's fool.
Exactly and she's in a bad neighborhood looks homeless can't produce any evidence she should be thier like I'm sorry but it really was crazy to me they just assumed they'd believe her regardless of it being Detroit
There was almost ZERO marketing for this movie, and I just randomly decided to go to the theatres and picked this movie completely blind. It was just a fun fun movie. Justin Long's character is so god damn good. I remember when Tess first went into the basement and grabbed toilet paper, I had no filter and just yelled out "JESUS GRAB MORE THAN ONE!"
@willvr4 Per Wikipedia: "Barbarian has been characterized as having themes related to sexual abuse and trauma, and, owing to the book by which Cregger was inspired, themes of different forms of misogyny. Writing for Film School Rejects, Aurora Amidon asserted that the film is essentially about "the ripple effects of abuse", concerning the characters of AJ and Frank-who, in the habit of harming women for their own pleasure, are cut from the same cloth.[14]" This movie is deeper than you realize.
@@kathrynhoward4196 It can still be fun. Did you enjoy it, or not? Fight Club and Seven are both dark and serious, but also fun. 2 things can be true at once.
God it's so funny when Justin Long is like "I'm saving you" after throwing her off the tower, I love everything with his characterization. I really was starting to think they were setting up some kind of redemption for him and honestly I'm so glad they didn't.
Always interesting to have an antagonist who's both scary and also sympathetic. I felt so sad for the "mother" but she would've most likely kept Tess trapped.
Calvin was on fire, I think with this reaction. The Tire Fireman. Also, you'd think ERic would trust the police less for someone who talks about fighting and going to jail that one time. Their reaction was not all that farfetched to me lol. The most famous case of it is Jeffrey Dahmer's victim running to the police and being released back to him.
I get Andre living in that abandoned neighborhood. People treat houseless people terribly, they discriminate against them, and even attack and hurt them. Living in a place where people don't go is probably way safer. He knows how to avoid the monster (or monsters because he said there were worst ones in that house). He probably lived a pretty quiet and safe life there.
@25:14 I love his reasoning for going down there and it is such a great contrast to Tess's reasoning. Like in a way they're both dual protagonists but the way they both go through life are vastly different. She chose to go down there (despite all our screaming at her not to) to try and help someone. He chose to go down there out of some idiotic sense of self-preservation caused by his own toxic actions. It's really good storytelling.
4:22 there actually is a romantic comedy with the 2 people that were double-booked in the same Air Bnb. It’s a Netflix movie called “Love in the Villa”.
As someone who lives in a city with a large homeless problem, I can verify police will ignore everything homeless people say, and will never actually help them.
LMAO. That's just stupid fam. Can You provide any eveidence where law enforcement completely disregards straigt up murder against the homeless? Can we stop just making shit up? LOL
People will say this is okay like we’re not almost all a medical emergency or layoff away from homelessness. You’re only worth as much as you’re contributing to the wallets of the oligarchs.
@BrianLikesBeans Until we stop ritualistically looking down on others as a society, it will be very tough to change that without a complete economic collapse.... which is not ideal
Less about being black and more about the fact she hadn't showered in weeks, was crawling around a dirty hole where she had to live in her own deficate, and couldn't produce any evidence
I love these guys how can you make someone laugh so much in a movie like that The "don´t go down there, don´t go down THERE, don´t go DOWN there" was great
This was written and directed by one of the members of the sketch comedy group The Whitest Kids U Know. I don't know why sketch comedy guys are so good at making horror movies but I'm glad they are.
Random thought: supposedly Japanese phones can’t turn off the shutter sound on their phones, to combat people taking creep pics/upskirts, stuff like that.
Y’all were me with Tess like she has so many chances in the beginning. Keith is a stranger! I don’t even think I will go down there for a family member to be honest😂
This movie is incredible and that scene mid way through was amazing on how it took our expectations on what this movie would be about and flipping it on its head.
I gave AJ the benefit of the doubt until the Bar Scene (22:12). AJ blatantly admitted to it. She said no, he ignored her and kept going. That is textbook he's guilty and I was hoping his "friend" was working for her lawyer.
I saw this movie in theaters, it was amazing!! The twist might be off-putting but man it was so well done. I don't think the rest of the movie holds up but it delivers amazingly and Justin long is at its finest. Man it was so hilarious!!
I love that the Director, Zach Cregger, is from the comedy sketch group "Whitest Kids You Know". Which always gets me when he cameos in this movie because it puts me in the headspace that I'm watching a funny video now.
Imagine watching this at midnight alone in your room having no clue what this movie is about. I can say it was a lot more scarier than watching it here
It occurred to me during this reaction while "Mama" was definitely incredibly tall, but maybe her strength was more from adrenaline trying to protect her "babies." It would also fit with how Tess killed her Mama wasn't in panic mode.
Yo I LOVED this movie. Saw it in a practically empty theater by myself on a Tuesday afternoon, all I knew going in was Airbnb horror movie with bill skarguard and man did this movie blow me away lol it ended up being one of my favorite new horror movies of last year I think mostly because I just didn’t see it coming lol
51:37 Yes -- I had Comcast come and check out the connection in my house without warning. Truck just pulled up one day. The guy wanted wi-fi measurements inside and outside, etc. Also, my gas meter is inside the house in the basement, so yes, utility workers will come inside to check it. If you are not home, they will leave a card and you can report it yourself online or by mail, but they only do that for so long then they really want to physically check it. Also, the water meter used to be inside the house too, but it got moved outside the house at some point when I was a kid. The gas meter will be moving outside when the gas company gets around to it.
Aaron is Ray Stantz lol "Get her!" lol Calvin is Peter too "That's your plan? Get her?" Eric is Winston, not for anything in the video, just a badass. These hooligans are fun!
Always the best to watch Blindwave during October. :) Pretty decent horror movie overall, but I really hope you guys get around to Hereditary eventually. It's one of the most disturbing and haunting pieces of filmmaking out there!
4:22 I THOUGHT THE SAME! 😂 7:53 comments I make so I don't get scared 😅 "This is my needels" lmaooo I live for you guys just being upset at random things like the toilet cap 😂 31:00 honestly I was waiting for that at the end 31:17 feel that 🤓😂
Sherlock taught me that ripping a hand from the socket is in human range, so arm might be. Than she split the head with the fall she survived and everything flew out the window
I finally watched this movie a couple days ago at first I thought Tess was very smart. Until she decided not to abandon Keith after propping the Basement door open. I thought that was more than enough from Tess. Maybe shout "bye Keith" from the top of the steps. After this reaction I realize Tess is too good a person, she couldn't leave them behind.
This movie and The Descent are 2 good movies to go into blind. I've seen some reactors who put "Mama" in the thumbnail which totally ruins the surprise.🤦♂️

Great reaction!!!! Where’s Fast X gentleman?!! Lol
"Can underground rooms be listed as square footage?" is genuinely one of my favourite moments in this movie. It's so hilarious.
Justin Long plays the role so well. He's so hateable but so goofy. What an actor! Him measuring the room is so awful but so funny
I laughed so hed
i mean it’s a valid question. 😂
Genuinely one of the best laughs of any movie in 2022
18:01 "I'm a big strong guy who can use my phone to call the police and get stronger guys" made me laugh so hard I had to pause the video. Eric is nobody's fool.
Oh man, it's crazy to me that they thought the cops wouldn't ignore her like they did.. when I saw that scene I was like...yep... sounds about right.
Iykyk
The average police 911 response time in Detroit is over 40 mins.
Exactly and she's in a bad neighborhood looks homeless can't produce any evidence she should be thier like I'm sorry but it really was crazy to me they just assumed they'd believe her regardless of it being Detroit

I randomly came across it, just scrolling through my smart TV and was blown away
I think you missed the point of this movie if you thought it was "fun". It features some seriously dark shit.
@@kathrynhoward4196 The "point"? It's a horror movie, there's no deep message. It had a pretty unique plot, so yeah, it was fun. Dark or not.

Unfortunately with the cops thing, its a lot more common than you think. Its tragically one of the most accurate moments of the movie
This. She looks like a homeless black woman. The kind of person cops are least likely to listen to (including black cops).
Always interesting to have an antagonist who's both scary and also sympathetic. I felt so sad for the "mother" but she would've most likely kept Tess trapped.

Oh man, remembering that Jeffrey Dahmer victim is so heartbreaking. He was free. But the police made sure he wasn’t.
i'm seeing this comment containing blindwave's but its not there
did they delete it?
That story infuriates the fuck out of me.

Police never help anyone lol. The Supreme Court literally ruled that they are not responsible for protecting us or our safety

@BrianLikesBeans Until we stop ritualistically looking down on others as a society, it will be very tough to change that without a complete economic collapse.... which is not ideal
I'm not even halfway done with the movie and already seeing that neighborhood in the morning would have me on an airplane outta town.
Exactly like I've trusted a motel 6 in a dark Baltimore street more than anything in that house
"SQUARE UP, TESS! THIS IS YOUR TIME." I've been quoting that to myself for weeks 😂
Calvin whistling bluebird is everything
I thought that’s what I heard. Ladies and gentleman, we got em
i think the whole cop thing was definitely because 1. its a seedy part of town where a lot of drug addicts are, and 2. tessa is a black woman
Less about being black and more about the fact she hadn't showered in weeks, was crawling around a dirty hole where she had to live in her own deficate, and couldn't produce any evidence
You guys should watch “Trick r Treat” from 2007. It’s such a fun Halloween movie. It feels kinda like a comic book too!
This is such a good reaction movie, so glad you guys picked it! Can't wait to see the other movies you've picked for spooky season!
I love these guys how can you make someone laugh so much in a movie like that
The "don´t go down there, don´t go down THERE, don´t go DOWN there" was great
This was written and directed by one of the members of the sketch comedy group The Whitest Kids U Know. I don't know why sketch comedy guys are so good at making horror movies but I'm glad they are.
I feel bad for (I guess you can say) Mama...but I'm not sad she's gone.
First time I've seen someone think the cops were unrealistic in this movie, lmao
The number on the house is 476. Coincidently, this is the year Rome was invaded by the Barbarians.
Random thought: supposedly Japanese phones can’t turn off the shutter sound on their phones, to combat people taking creep pics/upskirts, stuff like that.
Y’all were me with Tess like she has so many chances in the beginning. Keith is a stranger! I don’t even think I will go down there for a family member to be honest😂
“Aaron, this is my needles!” 🤣The expression on Calvin’s face during the milk bottle scene was priceless!🤢🤣👏
Gonna keep a count for how many times Aaron asks “who is that?” before the movie has a chance to answer the question.
In Japan they are legally required to have the camera sound on. It's somehow enabled by their service providers and they cannot even turn it off.
And the reason why is very disturbing tbh
@@9709Nick i think they should have it here in the states and a loud sounds for video recording. its an actual problem for breaching privacy
4:29 Actually, there is a rom com movie with this trope, if I remember corectly it was "Love in the Villa"
Finally! Great suspense movie & fantastic reaction from the Wave Crew! That chase scene was 😱😱😱!
Eric: "It's got BOOBS!" 😂😂😂
Apparently that first part was just a regular day in detroit
like fourth time throuhg this and just realised. Barbarian.......the streat name is barbari......barbari inn
Me only now getting it
It's spelled Barbary, actually, according to the closed captioning on my TV.
I saw this in theater and that scene with skarsgard in the tunnel scared me to my core.
This movie is incredible and that scene mid way through was amazing on how it took our expectations on what this movie would be about and flipping it on its head.
20:42 - me in the theatre 😂
I gave AJ the benefit of the doubt until the Bar Scene (22:12). AJ blatantly admitted to it. She said no, he ignored her and kept going. That is textbook he's guilty and I was hoping his "friend" was working for her lawyer.
I saw this movie in theaters, it was amazing!! The twist might be off-putting but man it was so well done. I don't think the rest of the movie holds up but it delivers amazingly and Justin long is at its finest. Man it was so hilarious!!
Why were yall extra funny this reaction lol I'm over here dying
You guys need to watch X and Pearl. Crazy movies, lol
literally would never guess how this movie turns out, hidden gem for sure
I love that the Director, Zach Cregger, is from the comedy sketch group "Whitest Kids You Know".
Which always gets me when he cameos in this movie because it puts me in the headspace that I'm watching a funny video now.
I fucking love that they set up Justin Long to have a redemption and he just doesn't. He's such a piece of shit in this and I love it.
Am I weird in that I don't like it when characters are just irredeemable assholes? I hated that.
I haven't seen this. I was looking down and heard Calvin say fuck you Marcus. which is my name and it was the scariest shit. 😂😂
Imagine watching this at midnight alone in your room having no clue what this movie is about. I can say it was a lot more scarier than watching it here
One of my FAVES from last year! Felt so fresh and original.
“Aaron, this is my needles” 😂😂😂
In one of the very rare occurrences, Bill wasn't a villain.
One of the more creative horror movies ive scene! Justin Long had me rolling 😂
One of my favorite horror movies in recent memory!!
Eric please make them watch TUSK~!
It occurred to me during this reaction while "Mama" was definitely incredibly tall, but maybe her strength was more from adrenaline trying to protect her "babies." It would also fit with how Tess killed her Mama wasn't in panic mode.
I love how they called out the double standards if the roles were reversed but Eric was being a little more biased for whatever reason😂
I heard people describe this movie as the perfect resident evil movie and I can see why.
great start for u guys into the horror genere movies reactions .need more reactions like this one to the gener.
"Mama" trying to suckle A.J.: He'll just take a little convincing.
Yo I LOVED this movie. Saw it in a practically empty theater by myself on a Tuesday afternoon, all I knew going in was Airbnb horror movie with bill skarguard and man did this movie blow me away lol it ended up being one of my favorite new horror movies of last year I think mostly because I just didn’t see it coming lol

wow zack, he made a great movie
Richard Blake also plays "The Knight King" in Game of Thrones 💡👍
Always the best to watch Blindwave during October. :)
Pretty decent horror movie overall, but I really hope you guys get around to Hereditary eventually. It's one of the most disturbing and haunting pieces of filmmaking out there!
3:59 I think that Get Out used the same soundeffect
You guys should really see Drag me to Hell.
4:22 I THOUGHT THE SAME! 😂
7:53 comments I make so I don't get scared 😅
"This is my needels" lmaooo I live for you guys just being upset at random things like the toilet cap 😂
31:00 honestly I was waiting for that at the end
31:17 feel that 🤓😂
Lmao not the “toilet seat being loose” ⚰️⚰️⚰️
2023 and we’re still under the impression police actually serve and protect. cute. 😂
Not a reaction I expected, but I love it!
Having pennywise play the nice helpful roommate maybe the best thing about this movie … it totally threw me off 😂
Sherlock taught me that ripping a hand from the socket is in human range, so arm might be. Than she split the head with the fall she survived and everything flew out the window
Not the barb I was hoping for this week but this is still good
They "creepy guy" is the Night King!
The twist is absolute insanity!
This is the fourth time I’ve watched the film and I just realized why the basement door locks like that 😂
I saw this movie in the theater It became an instant classic
That was some sweet whistling dude.
Me reading video notification: "Oh no..."
They shoulda turned down the lightin in the studio for the reaction. That red behind them is BRIGHT
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!!!!!
Georgina Campbell played Lyta-Zod (General Zod's grandmother) in the SyFy series Krypton.
I was not expecting where this movie took me
For sure gotta watch tusk
So Tork for them watching this.
41:58 because he got upset, and when you get upset, she gets upset.
Lol you should do Tusk on this channel if some of y'all haven't seen it. Such a trip of a movie.
Girls can rip my guy Bill said in the beginning lol love that foreshadowing
Calvin with the naruto OSTs
its funny how the guys said " the start or a romantic comedy" but for all women it was just a scary , uncertain and dangerous situation.
Zach Cregger is awesome. Gallon of PCP all day.
Hope his kids didn't lose their heads!
I finally watched this movie a couple days ago at first I thought Tess was very smart. Until she decided not to abandon Keith after propping the Basement door open. I thought that was more than enough from Tess. Maybe shout "bye Keith" from the top of the steps.

Would absoulety love to see a tusk reaction 😂
So glad you guys are reacting to this movie
Watched this and The Rental back to back. That's a 100% Nope on airbnbs.
"PUNCH HER IN THE TITTY" i can't 💀
