    I loved the scene where Justin’s character finds the “dad/grandpa” and immediately goes to him not afraid. It’s interesting because he’s the “ monster” technically speaking even though he looks like an old man. I actually felt kind of bad for the “mother”.

      lmao Im gonna be the asshole here and say.. nahhh The mother is still "the monster" 🤣🤣 in reality, of course I understand what youre saying but at the same time the father can't rip off someones arm straight from their body or smash a head into bits LOL

      @pluckyduck11y 2 роки тому +12

      I think his character was sincerely willing to help. His moment of self-reflection was sincere, but it also requires courage to help someone else in that situation, which he totally lost after he saw the She-Hulk monster rip a grown man in half. Everybody can talk a good game about being brave until you see someone ripped in half. It does not excuse throwing the person you accidentally shot off a tower as bait though. He was exceptionally foul for that. I loved how he repeatedly fumbled with the gun too. Hilarious

      The Mother is the way she is because of the Father, he is the "barbarian". She appears a monster, but is ultimately a producr of his doing. It's actually kind of tragic.

      @@pluckyduck11y did you feel like the tower scene was kind of movie logic lol. I mean wasn't he also one of her potential babies. I'd have thought the mother would just look at him like "wtf bro" and then go drag him back home rather then jump off a tower. When he first threw her i didn't even have time to understand the correlation so i was shocked when it worked. Like damn you're evil but well played sir.

      yeah, this movie is about how constant victimisation can create a "monster"; all she wants is (firstly) revenge, and (secondly) love
      the film is clever because it shows Long's character, a rapist, sympathising with the actual monster, a rapist
      if there's anything missing for me, it's the purpose of Skarsgard's character

    @rynbliss 2 роки тому +51

    i think a really interesting thing about this movie is that by the end i found myself feeling sympathetic toward the being that was framed as the Monster. like yes shes killed who knows how many people but she is a product of many layers of incest mutation and certainly an insane amount of neglect. the way she protected tess from getting hurt by the fall and was gentle with her when she saw she was hurt, it nearly made me cry.
    also there was a moment there where it looked like aj was going to be redeemed but i dont think he deserved it so i was actually kinda glad when he died? like, men much better than you have died why do you get to survive this.

    I love how they revealed the truth of the allegations against the actor when we saw him try to spin and gaslight the girl who helped him after tossing her off the tower.
    In that moment, it is clear that he did assault his coworker and deluded himself into believing he didn’t.

  • @chrisbaker7583
    @chrisbaker7583 2 роки тому +8

    I admit I am a snob when it comes to horror. That being said, although I sincerely appreciated the story and thought the concept was creepy and full of potential, the movie
    Itself was ultimately a let down. The pacing was awful, as they spent more time developing characters than focusing on the actual horror. You get about 3 minutes of “horror” for every 20min of character development. I found myself feeling frustrated after the 3rd time something scary would happen, followed by an immediate hard cut to the beginning of a whole new sub plot. All that aside, the entire third act, especially the water tower scene, felt like a rushed mess. They were obviously trying to rush the exposition and explain everything in the laziest way possible (having the random homeless man show up and literally tell the entire story). The water tower scene was trash, and felt like the writers essentially gave up. She was shot and thrown off the water tower but they obvious couldn’t have her die so they were just like “fuck it” and she just walks away relatively unharmed from an insane fall. Overall just felt like they tried to do way too much and pack it all into the last 10min

  • @georgiaboy2023

    "None of the men in this film do the right thing"? Didn't the homeless black guy do the right thing? Twice? I guess he didn't want to go down into the dungeon but can you blame him? I don't think any sensible person would say he "didn't do the right thing".

    You said that none of the men seem to be able to do the right thing, but I’d argue that Keith does. He refuses to let her phone for another place to stay out in her car, he goes out to her car to get her stuff and he gives her the bed by taking the couch.

    I enjoyed this movie, but the discisions of these characters very nearly ruined it for me. I realize that bad decisions are a tried and true horror movie trope, but this movie takes it to another level completely! There were certain times when I thought this movie was almost a parody of horror movies, but it kept a serious and straight faced tone throughout. You can try to explain the commentary on gender rolls all you want, THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL ANY LONE PERSON VOLUNTARILY GOES BACK INTO THAT HOUSE AND THOSE UNDERGROUND PASSAGEWAYS AS MANY TIMES AS SHE DID!!

      Some people are just kind hearted, I understand a lot of people wouldn’t do it but she knew what living in those conditions was like. She saw someone get murdered by the Mother and wanted to help, the realistic part was the fact was that she was so hesitant and did the most logical thing while trying to help, except the part where she followed Keith into the tunnels

      This movie was retarded, they never explained how the house was double booked! She was trying to die the whole time. So was Keith, he just decided to walk down a dungeon hallway
