The moment he took his mask off was so chilling. She and the audience realized at the same exact moment that he had no intention of her surviving the night
@@mr.l5783 Usually I would agree but him removing the mask as a sign that he's so determined on killing her that night so it's not a threat to him that she now knows what he looks like and could technically identify him for the police later makes him appear much more dangerous in my opinion.
That's my favourite thing about the movie, that dude could be your next door neighbour and you'd have no idea of his little 'hobby'. He just looks so unassuming. It's like when Michael Myers was unmasked in the original Halloween and he was revealed to be just a normal looking young man.
as a deaf person, i have avoided this movie like the plague. It took me too long to work up the nerve to watch a quiet place. I think horror movies that play into a lack of senses or work in a disability without being directly exploitative of said disability are severely overlooked and are just as, if not more, impactful to those who don't know what it's like to experience fear through that lens. While I still haven't seen Hush, I will FOREVER applaud it, and sing its praises for what impact it's had on cinema, and the conversation it opens up about not only deaf/hoh awareness, but also alternative film making (like mike's idea of a silent film? bro I would lose my mind. Or even a film that leans heavily into the silence, and only provides ambiance noises, active dialogue, shuffling, etc. Similar to A Violent Nature!!!) and the ability to include disabled people in horror narratives without being exploitative, dehumanizing or villainizing. Absolutely phenomenal.
I have a question, in the scene he shows at 7:54 wouldn’t you be able to feel the impacts of the girl hitting the door to get your attention? I feel like it would be obvious because houses carry vibration pretty well, especially when someone is banging on something but obviously I’m not deaf so I wanted to see your perspective.
This movie is so great, and it reminds me of the classic "Wait Until Dark," where Audrey Hepburn plays a blind woman whose home is invaded by robbers and she uses her disability and the things she's done to overcome it to fight back. It's even better as a stage play with some moments that make an audience just gasp at what happens.
I love Wait Until Dark. I was going to mention another movie about a blind protagonist who is being chased by a killer, the lesser-known Blind Terror aka See No Evil with Mia Farrow, but I don't think Evan is really into older films. 🐕🦺🦯😎
@@thectyptid00haven’t seen Mightnight Mass yet! Or House of Usher which is just a crime since I’m such a huge Poe fan. Gotta catch up on all this stuff
It's insanely impressive how Flannigan was able to make an incredible home invasion movie featuring a character that's mute and the with a small enough cast that you could count them on one hand.
Oh damn I'm early. Remember liking Hush when I saw it ages ago. But now with the benefit of hindsight, it seems even better. Using pieces of her life living with a disability to win the final showdown is badass. RIP Josh. One of the only intelligent horror movie side characters. Having it be her making noise distracting him for a second leading to his death is way more tragic.
I remember my brother randomly clicking on this movie on Netflix and we just stared at each other after it finished. Loved it. Also I'm delighted to see Flanagan only improved over time. I love all his work.
Also had to say that Midnight Mass and Haunting of Hill House were both excellent, though I preferred hill house for sure. My absolute biggest pet peeve about midnight mass was how they are dealing with a vampire, with all vampire like qualities, are literally becoming vampires, and the word "vampire" is not used a single time in the whole show. Maybe it's in a universe where vampire movies don't exists or something, but it really irritated me for some reason!
Same! Its one of my fave movies not just bc of the scares but the sound and ambience as well and I recommend it to others never knew he was the reason we even got it.
OMG Oculus is one of my FAVORITE movies of all time and idk why but I never realized that Mike Flanagan was the one that made it! I'm starting to realize most of my favorite horror movies are from him and I love it❤
i don’t remember why i watched this movie for the first time (not usually a horror fan) but im so glad i did, it’s one of my most favorite movies it’s so profound and captivating
this is by far one of my favorite movies of all time, the concept, the execution, the switch in sound design & the killer being so welcoming to the idea of it becoming a game. i still think its far and away one of THE most underrated movies of all time. the ideas it presents and the subtle jump scares that arent in your face but more make your neck hair stand up…. perfection.
I remember first watching this and thinking it was very well done. Excellent and resourceful final girl and the hearing disability adds to that dread but equally rewarding with how bad ass she's able to overcome the masked man. I think You're Next though takes the cake for my favorite home invasion movie. Love the improv and the natural chemistry the larger cast has in that movie. Great video as always ❤
Obviously you either do Hill House as a series of videos, or go all in on one huge video essay. I know neither is really what you usually do, but it’s Hill House. It’s special, and deserves that special treatment.
Almost lost my big brother to bacterial meningitis, I’d never wish it on anyone. They didn’t think he would make it… I was 13, he was 15 & he was paralyzed on the left side of his body. And he worked his ass off to make sure that he overcame it. And he did. Within a year. Now, he works out & does parkour, is extremely fit & healthy & you’d never guess that he died 3 times when he was 5 & was in basically, a comatose state when he was in the ICU for months while he was sick. I was so scared. But he’s a hell of a warrior & we are both survivors. More than once for both of us & I loved this movie & had no idea that Maddie was deaf & mute bc of bacterial meningitis, that makes me respect her even more than I already did haha🩵🥰👊🏻
Yes! So happy to see you covering this movie. This was my introduction to Mike Flanagan and I’ve been a die hard ever since. I’m so glad it’s available again at least digitally and look forward to seeing it get a physical release soon. Btw, agree on Hill House, one of the most amazing narratives ever created.
I do love how more movies in the recent 5ish years, maybe ten now, have included protagonists with real world disabilities that are just as capable and durable as able bodied ones. It used to be, if your character was Asthmatic or wheelchair bound, you were the first one plucked off (and in my case it would be true) but now that's not the case because you've got someone who has to compensate more depending on their personal physicality so they're already prepared to be at a disadvantage when that disadvantage happens. Plus, real world representation let's goooo! Look at how many doors this opens for a deaf/mute/blind/amputee/whatever kind of person. They're not the perpetual victim, they're people, and they can kick ass just as hard. If not harder.
I saw this on a whim with my wife and it was one of the greatest and tensest movies we have seen in awhile! I can’t wait for the Haunting of Hill House video, Flannigan is one of my favorite directors!
Flanagan is GOAT!!! This was the first film of his I ever saw and haven't missed or been disappointed in his work since. And I'm so psyched for Kate having one of the sequences in the next VHS!
This is one movie to terrify me each time I watch it. I was 69% hearing impaired my entire life. Now I'm losing my hearing (75% and 85%) and my fears are only amplified.
Damn, Mike Flanagan's done a lot. Hope you get to Doctor Sleep one day. It's the only one of his films I've seen. Both versions. And its the best kind of horror in that I was totally invested in its drama and got quite emotional during a lot of it.
This video dropped at an EXCELLENT time! My friend just watched Hush for the first time, so I'm excited to throw your video essay their way :) As a fellow Mike Flanagan Fanatic ™, I love how you talk about how filmmaking style. Look forward to more of his stuff being analyzed by you!
I love the ambience because not everyone who is Deaf cant hear. Like everthing its a spectrum and obviously the more they cant hear the more some strain to puck up even the slightest audio or stop to pick up even the smallest movement.
This was the first movie I saw by Mike Flanagan and Kate Siegel (not making the connection with Ouija, Origin of Evil and Oculus until later). I loved it and have been a fan of them both ever since!
I love Mike Flanagan so much, his storytelling is always so masterful and I love that he implements it through horror. There's so much poetic nuance to The Haunting series, and though I wasn't such a big fan of Midnight Mass's constant monologuing and extremely slow pace, I could see how much passion he put into his magnum opus. He is for me the way Hayao Miyazaki is to Ghibli filmography.
I don't rewatch a lot of modern horror. Be it that older films have me in a nostalgia chokehold, or I just don;t find as much rewatchablity in newer films, I find Hush to be so enjoyable I rewatch it every other year or so. Just a gem many have slept on. And I don't know why, besides the obvious home invasion connection, but the ~vibes~ remind me of You're Next.
Bacterial meningitis is truly an awful condition. It’s really nice to see a medical condition in a horror setting that was clearly well researched. In this case she probably would be more likely to have complications from the infection, as the biggest risk groups are at less than one year and ages 16-21. While a 13 year old could absolutely get this infection, it may take the doctors extra time to come to the conclusion and with the speed of this particular infection that would be enough for potential serious consequences. There is a vaccine available, though it’s not routinely given. At least in Canada, it’s recommended if you are immunocompromised or have underlying conditions. There’s also certain geographical areas that carry higher risk (namely sub-Saharan Africa and certain areas of Saudi Arabia) and if traveling to them the vaccine may be recommended.
I actually went to school with a below knee amputee who lost his leg due to bacterial meningitis. He was 14 when I first met him and he was already an amputee. So yeah, incredibly realistic.
It's still pretty wild to me looking back and realizing that what Maddy is writing is literally the third series of Mike Flanagan's, after Haunting of Hill House and Bly Manor, aka Midnight Mass. The amount of 4D chess this man is playing...
Great vid yet again 👏 noone is more deserving of success on youtube than you Evan. I also agree with the last guy...Midnight Mass is a masterpiece of storytelling. 🧛♂️
Also, you've lost your mind if you think we wouldn't watch a 12 hour Hill House breakdown (though for your sake, I hope you work out a good run time without too much editing down)
at a sleepover in highschool i made my friends watch both sinister and hush, to my surprise hush freaked everyone out more... also to my surprise i lost movie recommendation rights..
06:06 i actually really like the conversation with the sister because it was so stiff and awkward. It's been a while since I watched the film and can't pinpoint why other than the reasons listed so what a shame... I have a reason to rewatch (somewhere as Netlfix took it off)
LOL HAMMERS. I now live in the south, no need for hammers when you have a 12 gauge, or a 308, SW 500, 45LC, 45ACP, 380, 9mm, 10mm, 22LR, Compound Bow, 556, 762 39, 50AE, so many toys, so many options so many for every room.
I went into hush going "this should be mildly entertaining to mock" but was shocked at how good and gripping this movie turned out to be. Not a 10/10 but a solid entry in a stale genre that i recomended to many people over the years
I really dont want this to be a gneder thing, but we have to acknowledge that BnEs are really terrifing especially from the womans POV. Chillas Art is a really good example of this. And HUSH reminds me of it. Of course, having someone invade your home to off you is terrifying for all. But we cant ignore that there are a lot of violent and brutal crimes when the vicitm is a woman. I think if it was reverse, I'd have the same amount of fear mainly because you vecomes something someone wants. If Hush as M/M OR W/W idk if the audience would ever really be that involved. The fact this is a supposed weaker being against a stringer one and winning makes it more engaging. If the vicitm was a man and lost wed be terrified because we are taught its not supposed to happen and when he wins its not that suprising unless the assalent was bigger or supernatural. What makes HUSH work so well is that we expect her to be really hurt or even offed tragically. When she makes it and its against someone whos SUPPOSED to be bigger stronger and has audio as the advantage we as the audience cheer. For me as someone who is a woman it adds more excitement when she wins. Its the same reason why at the end of GET OUT the audience is relieved when the main character makes it. And those who think im wrong should look at the history of Horror and thriller movies. Theres a reason why most of the vicitms are women and why we dont care as much when the lanky guys die and we care when the macho ones dont
I wonder if you've seen Open House, because based off this review I feel like maybe you'd enjoy it! Hush is another underrated goodie hidden on netflix.
The moment he took his mask off was so chilling. She and the audience realized at the same exact moment that he had no intention of her surviving the night
Love the fact he took his mask off was amazing. Not a masked killer, just a regular guy. Even creepier.
I actually prefer when they don’t remove their mask. The mystery and lack of humanity is creepier to me.
@@mr.l5783 Usually I would agree but him removing the mask as a sign that he's so determined on killing her that night so it's not a threat to him that she now knows what he looks like and could technically identify him for the police later makes him appear much more dangerous in my opinion.
@@mr.l5783 but him being a regular guy and not a monster is even creepier to me

Removing the mask is super creepy. That means no survivors.
"She gets stabbed over and over again. If this were a Scream movie... she would be fine!" Fantastic Scream 6 dig.
That movie was terrible

The ASL is painful to watch in the movie. The Quiet Place did an incredible job! Hush fell short
If that scares you, then avoid this one. It plays on it expertly in this flick
This movie is so great, and it reminds me of the classic "Wait Until Dark," where Audrey Hepburn plays a blind woman whose home is invaded by robbers and she uses her disability and the things she's done to overcome it to fight back.

… How come I’ve never heard of that movie?! Looking it up and watching it now!
@@Raine-97 Because you're young? 🧐
a missed opportunity, the O.G. of Impaired vs. Invader
I love "Wait Until Dark"! I remember watching it late at night on TV when my grandma was babysitting me, long ago. I never forgot it!
❤
Mike Flanagan is the best because he gives me ample opportunities to enjoy Carla Gugino without having to resort to watching Zack Snyder movies
Love Mike and Carla, but Midnight Mass ruined Samantha Sloyan for me. Every time I see her, even in a good role, I think of Bev
@@thectyptid00haven’t seen Mightnight Mass yet! Or House of Usher which is just a crime since I’m such a huge Poe fan. Gotta catch up on all this stuff
@@thectyptid00 the most hated character. lol
And Flanagan utilizes Carla so much better than Snyder ever could ❤❤
Im only half deaf so this concept really intrigued me when i first watched it and now i hate being home alone as a result of this film
get that cool alarm system!
It's insanely impressive how Flannigan was able to make an incredible home invasion movie featuring a character that's mute and the with a small enough cast that you could count them on one hand.
Love when I caught this on Netflix a few years ago, randomly, w/out knowing anything about it. I didn't expect much... then the movie happened. 😯😲
Oh damn I'm early. Remember liking Hush when I saw it ages ago. But now with the benefit of hindsight, it seems even better.

The scream I scrumpt when I got the notification. Hush is my favorite Flanagan movie!

DUDE U GOTTA MAKE A VIDEO ON MIDNIGHT MASS, ITS AMAZING. ITS EASILY MY FAVORITE HORROR SERIES OF ALL TIME
YES
Yes please!!
The show where nothing happens.
@@armando5846 Did u get past the first episode, the show has a LOT going on
@@armando5846 Have you even made it past the first episode, so much stuff happens in the show it's not even funny

This is such a great UA-cam channel! Not just doing lists or movie recommendations but well thought out discussions on horror content. Love it!
I just found this channel and it’s criminally underrated
Another reason we need physical media. This movie is only digitally available which is sad.
Im pretty sure it's already gone from streaming
God this movie rocks!!! I’m happy to see you covering it 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks dude! Been so excited to talk about it
OMG Oculus is one of my FAVORITE movies of all time and idk why but I never realized that Mike Flanagan was the one that made it! I'm starting to realize most of my favorite horror movies are from him and I love it❤
If you like Flanagan's work please watch midnight mass ASAP!
It's my favorite show period.
So rich, so perfectly executed and unique!
Lol, you talked about midnight mass a bit.. PLEASE MAKE A VIDEO! Haha
i agree 100%!
i don’t remember why i watched this movie for the first time (not usually a horror fan) but im so glad i did, it’s one of my most favorite movies it’s so profound and captivating

Small thing, but the hammer joke around 0:30 is hilarious
Nice sneaky Elden Ring joke in there
i hated it...i am trying so hard to avoid any spoilers and didn't expect one here
I am late to the party, but I’d like to hear you talk about Hill House for 12 hours straight, for real.
I would happily watch 12 hours of you talking about hill house!!
Woooo, Flanagan is one of my faves as well.
Love your work, bro! Great review.
Midnight Mass is by far my favorite Flanigan product. I'll watch anything this guy makes.
This is one of the most under rated movies ever. I tell everyone about it
I would easily watch a 12 hour essay on The haunting of Hill House in this channel so please, make one.
You forgot about the film “Panic Room” another classic home invasion movie
Yes! So happy to see you covering this movie. This was my introduction to Mike Flanagan and I’ve been a die hard ever since. I’m so glad it’s available again at least digitally and look forward to seeing it get a physical release soon.
Btw, agree on Hill House, one of the most amazing narratives ever created.
Absolutely obsessed with Flanagan's work! I cannot wait for you to cover more!!
dude you're fueling my horror hyperfixation like oil on fire, i love it keep doing what you're doing!
Once again. Just want to comment that your content is great. We have a similar set of standards and I like your sense of humour 😊
Great work dude!!!!
I do love how more movies in the recent 5ish years, maybe ten now, have included protagonists with real world disabilities that are just as capable and durable as able bodied ones.

After watching Dr. Sleep that's now my favourite Mike Flanagan movie.
Flanagan is GOAT!!! This was the first film of his I ever saw and haven't missed or been disappointed in his work since. And I'm so psyched for Kate having one of the sequences in the next VHS!
Insane this channel doesn’t get more views. Expecting big changes in the future. Happy I found it.

Love this film, I injured my vocal chords years ago and I lose my voice randomly all the time so this resonated with me so much
Haven't even watched this yet, Evan, but love Mike, Love Kate, Love RGP. Thumbs up immediately. Can't wait for your take on this.
I love the ambience because not everyone who is Deaf cant hear. Like everthing its a spectrum and obviously the more they cant hear the more some strain to puck up even the slightest audio or stop to pick up even the smallest movement.

watch it again.......
Loved this analysis. Thank you for your words on this beautiful movie.
We are really throwing around words like "masterclass" willy nilly these days.
I loved this movie! I've never been scared by supernatural horror stories at all, but home invaders *terrify* me. It was a good film.
My favorite home invasion films are Incident In A Ghost Land, You're Next, The Collector, and Don't Breathe.
I would love to hear your take on You're Next!
3:47 My sister has BM as an infant. It was absolutely terrifying for everybody. I'm so glad she's okay and a healthy sixteen year old today :)

So excited that this is getting a blu-ray release!!! This is the baddest Final Girl since Sidney Prescott, IMO.
Great content
I watched Hush when it first came on netflix I was so paranoid after
I did not notice the book title. Thats really awesome.
14:07 phenomenal reference, bravo
Also, you've lost your mind if you think we wouldn't watch a 12 hour Hill House breakdown (though for your sake, I hope you work out a good run time without too much editing down)
Don’t worry dude, I’ve met Mike and Kate! My hands are safe!
I absolutely loved this movie.
please do a video on all flanagan's stuff, especially midnight mass, would love to hear your thoughts!!
By all means, feel free to make a 12 hour Hill House video. I'd eat that shit up
at a sleepover in highschool i made my friends watch both sinister and hush, to my surprise hush freaked everyone out more... also to my surprise i lost movie recommendation rights..
one of my favorites!

If i hear a creak or a crash in another room... I just assume my cats are causing problems.
Do they though or is it something else lol
I hate how this was made purely for Netflix and Netflix removed it! Like wtf Netflix?!
The contract expired. It’s getting released on digital soon and then a bluray is coming
@@RocklinGraves that’s a relief

Fantastic review as always man! You just have to do hill house, that show is a fucking masterpiece.
and flanagan got the rights back from netflix for it so it’s getting a physical release this year!!
The Elden Ring reference caught me so off guard 😂 Well played sir
Please make a video on HILL HOUSE that’s twelve hours long!!!
Mattie is a surviver. Like ive said, these movies can only work for me if the protagonist is just that. I loved HUSH.

And HUSH reminds me of it. Of course, having someone invade your home to off you is terrifying for all. But we cant ignore that there are a lot of violent and brutal crimes when the vicitm is a woman.
I think if it was reverse, I'd have the same amount of fear mainly because you vecomes something someone wants. If Hush as M/M OR W/W idk if the audience would ever really be that involved. The fact this is a supposed weaker being against a stringer one and winning makes it more engaging. If the vicitm was a man and lost wed be terrified because we are taught its not supposed to happen and when he wins its not that suprising unless the assalent was bigger or supernatural. What makes HUSH work so well is that we expect her to be really hurt or even offed tragically. When she makes it and its against someone whos SUPPOSED to be bigger stronger and has audio as the advantage we as the audience cheer. For me as someone who is a woman it adds more excitement when she wins. Its the same reason why at the end of GET OUT the audience is relieved when the main character makes it.
And those who think im wrong should look at the history of Horror and thriller movies. Theres a reason why most of the vicitms are women and why we dont care as much when the lanky guys die and we care when the macho ones dont
It was crazy to see the actor for the killer after watching the Belko Experiment.
In that, he was a good guy. This film... no way.
Twelve hour long Hill House video sounds good to me
Have you seen the movie Mike Flanagan ripped off with Hush? Mischief Night (2013).
We don’t mind, make hill house 12 hours.
I would LOVE!!!!! a 12 hour video on Hill House hahaha
i can't speak for everyone, but for what it's worth, i'd definitely watch that 12 hour long hill house video. this one is great too, as always!
I wonder if you've seen Open House, because based off this review I feel like maybe you'd enjoy it! Hush is another underrated goodie hidden on netflix.
