HI EVERYONE!! I plan to watch more horror movies in the locations where they're set! If you can think of any movies in locations you'd like to see, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!! It would be a huge help. THANK YOU FOR WATCHING WITH ME!! KAT:D
I'm sad it wasn't the shallows or crawl etc. Jaws is dated and how scared she gets other titles would have been more effective but the effort she puts in is next level
@@xDezxdisasterx Jaws is the very first blockbuster, features one of the greatest monologues in the history of film, and is one of the best movies ever made. It was nominated for four Oscars - back when that actually meant something - and won three of them. The only thing "dated" about Jaws are a couple shots of Bruce, but everything else - especially the acting - doesn't just hold up; it surpasses most performances these days. Both The Shallows and Crawl aren't great movies.
I love that Quint named his vessel "The Orca." Killer Whales are the only creature in the ocean that when a pod of them enters an area, all the sharks ( including Great Whites ) immediately leave.
I spent a month or so in the Florida Keys not long after this came out and the unfortunate consequence of this movie was the carnage as the boats went out with the tourists to bag themselves a set of shark jaws. Every afternoon the boats would arrive back with a few sharks. They'd land them then cut the jaws out, and set them out to dry on the dockside. I was only at one key, but it happened up and down the length of the islands for a few years. It wasn't confined to Florida either.
The brilliance of Jaws is the fact it's not a monster movie but a character study about three men facing their fears and insecurities. Chief Brody took a shot and overcame his fear of the water. Hooper learned he must take the plunge in order to get ahead. Quint discovered he's only half the man the though he was. In addition, Mayor Vaughn really anchors the scene on the ferry.
Two things about Quint's monologue. The story it tells really happened. An American warship late in the war had just delivered the atom bomb to be dropped on Japan. While redeploying they were sunk by a Japanese submarine. The did get a distress signal off but it was ignored or thought to be a ruse, and lax management missed the ship being overdue. They spent four days in the open sea adrift dying of exposure and being attacked by sharks until they were discovered and rescued. Out of 1100 on the ship at sinking, a little over 300 survived. Also, the actor playing Quint, Robert Shaw, himself a playwright as well as being a veteran British character and leading actor, rewrote the much longer monologue and pared it down to the form that's delivered on screen.
Totally off script - I don't think Speilberg & Co. had even heard of The Indianapolis until Shaw brought it up to them. Shaw wrote the monolog, giving us an actual war story and weight to the Quint character.
@@mousetreehouse6833 No. In script. Originally an idea by Howard Sackler while first adapting the book into a screenplay. Written and re-written at various times by Carl Gottlieb, Robert Zemekis, Bob Gale, and Paul Schrader. 10 different versions. Edited and rewritten again into its final form by Robert Shaw. The original idea to make Quint a survivor of the Indianapolis came from Sackler.
i remember hearing something about this, thanks for sharing, thats an awesome fact, even as a kid i was engrossed with that story, and normally as a kid i would of been bored by such normally lol
@AlWorth9738 Yes, it was. There are numerous interviews from multiple people attesting to its origin. Plus, this wasn't even the first take - the day before they tried to shoot it and Shaw thought he could do it drunk - he couldn't. They did it the next day with Shaw sober. It was totally scripted. That's just an objective fact.
@@jkorshak Robert Shaw also played at least one take while totally hammered. Shaw would often act after drinking, a good part of it is him completely sober, however there are a few moments where he smiles and he has a very glassy eyed look that were so perfect from when he was drunk that they had to use that footage.
Fun fact: the actress who plays the mother who loses her child went to the same island where this was filmed and went into a restaurant filled with Jaws props from the film, and told the waitress she was the mother in the film. The waitress told her to wait a moment and went into the back and the owner of the restaurant came out. Turns out the owner was the actor who played the little boy in Jaws. They had a nice little unexpected reunion.
@@nsasupporter7557 The scene where the Mother who lost her son the Shark was slapping Sheriff Brody........She kept Slapping him hard and it didn't look good on camera.....so they kept reshooting the scene in hopes they would get a good shot.....but she kept Slapping Roy Scheider, or sheriff Brody hard and it didn't look good on camera.....so they had over 20 or so takes of Roy Scheider getting slapped around for the shot....
I study media genres as part of my academic research, and I agree. Reaction videos are a fascinating genre already, and Kat's efforts to specialize are remarkable.
I'm wondering who's gonna do the first drive-in movie reaction. You could do new release movies, if you're willing to wait til it's released on video. Just need some audio cues to help sync.
Roy Scheider developed a trick to the iconic reaction of seeing the shark. He knew he couldn't use words or his voice, or any dramatic movement to sell terror as that wasn't in the script. So he played the scenes around it holding his jaw and cheek bones in a more tightened expression and he would even work himself up a bit so that he had more color in his face. Then the moment he saw the shark he just softened his eye focus off into the distance and relaxed every single muscle in his face. He realized that when you encounter true terror your body just drops control and that was the best way to convey that. Roy relayed this information to Jeff Daniels when Jeff was working on his role in speed. Jeff's character was about to be blown up and he couldn't figure out how to express that specific look so he called up Roy and asked him what he did on Jaws.
This is commitment. Sitting in a floaty, wearing a wet suit, bitten by bugs and dosing yourself in bug spray for 2 HOURS. Thanks for everything you do Kat!
Taking reacts to a whole new level Kat 👏🏼 I’m glad you seemed to miss the fact that the dogs owner was calling him and he was no where to be found…let’s pretend he ran home shall we. Also “fisherman …it’s what’s for dinner”🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kat, you're taking reaction videos to a whole new level. and when everyone else starts doing it, we'll all know who started the whole thing. so THANK YOU
Out here in Rhode Island in the summer once a year at night they have a viewing of JAWS outside where people can go out on the water in inner-tubes. It’s great.
Robert Shaw(Quint)'s monologue about the USS Indianapolis is one of my very favorite moments in movie history. Perfection. Thank you @KatWatchesHorror for reaction to one of the OGs, you are hilarious as always.
0:24 This is my third time watching this reaction and I just saw your shark for the first time in the upper left as you are saying "There are no sharks in here." LOL Good one.
I was living in Kuwait when I first saw the movie. The next day with my parents and one of my friends went to the beach. It was low tide, so I was stepping through the tidal pools. Always looking at the next one to see if it had sea urchins in it. Then I stopped at sand shark. Maybe 3 to 4 feet. That day I discovered that Jesus could walk on water but I could run on it.
You asked, “How did they make that?“. The tiger shark for the scene on the dock, where they caught the wrong shark, was a real tiger shark, dead and rotting under the sun and hot lights. The only movie magic was the cast pretending they weren’t getting sick from the smell.
Yes, the local fishermen on Martha's Vineyard failed to catch a shark big enough, so stuntman Teddy Grossman (the red rowboat victim) was sent down to Florida to hire fishermen there. They caught the tiger shark and flew it in a private plane back to the Vineyard. They nicknamed it Oscar.
@@reactormator Yeah I had to check my copy of The Jaws Log. Apparantely the tiger shark scene was due to be filmed starting on the Monday (in mid May 1974) but by the end of the previous week the local fishermen had only delivered some small blue sharks so on the Friday Teddy Grossman and an old Hollywood boat advisor called Freddie Zendar in desperation flew down to Sarasota, Florida. They hired local guys who caught the tiger shark and brought it to them at nightfall on the Saturday, and wanted more money than agreed. It was flown to the Vineyard on the Sunday. Zendar flew with the crate in a small private plane while Grossman had to take a commercial airline back. It was all ready to start filming on the Monday, right on schedule. ✌
I really appreciate the timing of the sun going down and the men bonding in the boat at night! Not to mention, while floating on water at night. Now that's one brave woman!👍🏼🇨🇦
There's something to watching these types of movies outdoors that really adds an ambiance to it. A few years back I went to Film on the Rocks out here in Colorado and they were showing the classic Twister at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. By the time the cows started flying, a huuuuge t-cell storm moved in over Denver, so behind the screen was just black gnarly cloths with flashes of lightning. We eventually caught the outskirts of it and a little wind/rain really set the mood for the climax of the movie.
When I was in college, the dorms did a screening of Jaws in the pool. People who had seen the movie watched from the sides (and laughed our butts off!) as the people who'd never seen it before screamed. The first time Bruce jumps out of the water to scare Brody, a few people touched the butts of some people in the inner tubes. I had to go change my pants I laughed so hard!
Jaws was an unexpected masterpiece of a movie. While the crew were working on it, they thought it was gonna fail due to the difficulties they faced while making it. The shark animatronics not working due to the saltwater of the ocean damaging the inner workings among other things. As a result of the shark animatronics not working, Spielberg had go work around showing the shark without actually showing it and it worked out beautifully!
@carn9507 "Kind of a shame this film gave sharks a bad rep for decades" Sharks already had a bad rep well before Jaws. That's what the mayor in Jaws literally says "you yell shark, and we've got a panic on our hands". Jaws actually created a massive boom in interest in sharks, and this lead to far more knowledge and understanding.
@@lyndoncmp5751 "Speaking on BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs on Sunday, Spielberg responded to a question asking how he would feel if he was on a desert island surrounded by shark-infested waters. “That’s one of the things I still fear-not to get eaten by a shark, but that sharks are somehow mad at me for the feeding frenzy of crazy sport fishermen that happened after 1975,” Spielberg tells BBC Radio 4’s Lauren Laverne. “I truly, and to this day, regret the decimation of the shark population because of the book and the film.” Jaws spearheaded a “collective testosterone rush” among fishers in the East Coast of the United States, leading thousands to hunt sharks for sport, as George Burgess, former director of the Florida Program for Shark Research, told the BBC in 2015. In the years following the film’s release, the number of large sharks in the waters east of North America declined by about 50 percent." Not sure all them fishermen were that understanding. :P
The attack on Chrissie Watkins at the beginning consisted of actress Susan Backlinie in a rig with ropes attached to her hips on either side, and one down on her leg. The guide ropes were run off to a team of big guys who pulled her around with all their might. She was of course informed about how this was all going to work, and did a little light practicing, but Steven left off how strong they would be pulling. He told the crew to really lay into the ropes and so her screams were the first take sudden shock reaction to being dragged uncontrollably.
Amazing reaction, Kat! This is one of the big ones, the film that created the modern Summer Blockbuster. My wife and I used to throw 'Jaws on the Water' parties, invited friends over, set up a projector outside and watched the film on the side of the house while swimming in our pool. Tons of fun.
LOVE your reactions, Kat! 🙂 The line, "You're gonna need a bigger boat," was an adlib by actor Roy Schneider (Chief Brody) as he was genuinely shocked at seeing the size for the first time. Spielberg loves it, and decided to leave it in, and it has become one of the best known lines in Hollywood history. I think it was made even better by the many times Brody kept ...repeating it! LOL. Can't wait for the next one. But, I THINK I saw something swimming around behind your "boat" a few times too. 🤔☺️😉
“If something were to touch my butt right now, everything would go sideways.” - Kat 2023 Definitely words to live by. How does this channel not have at least 500k subscribers? This is gold and so is Kat. Hilarious and entertaining. Best reaction channel in existence.
Years ago I saw Jaws while floating in the middle of Lake Travis in Texas. Diver swam around below us, grabbing our feet, during the movie. It was hilarious.
It's OK Kat, you were never in any real danger. Any potential predator would have been too confused by the combination of swimwear and a tuque to do anything.
@@blairhaffly1777 Yup, French Canadian to be more precise. We're a special breed, the rudeness of the French part sometimes cancels out the politeness of the Canadian part. Didn't mean to throw anyone off by not calling it a beanie. 😁
THIS is now the BEST reaction channel ever! This lady has balls!! First she watches Blair Witch in the 'forest' at night, then JAWS in the 'water'.....too good! Too fun!! I'm subscribed now. Can't wait for the next reaction. Keep smiling🙂👍
I will NEVER forget Chief Brody chumming the water, and the shark coming up next to his arm. I still remember everyone going to the beach when this came out in the summer of 1976 and looking around for sharks. This movie was inspired by a Bull Shark attacking a coastal New Jersey town.
“Now that’s a good sized boat to not get eaten in! Not like these other dingies.” Oh, how wrong you were at the time. And I enjoyed every second :) 😅thanks for the reaction!
I agree with everyone else that this is an incredibly original way to do reactions. There are so many reactors out there and it’s a real challenge to stand out!
First Blair Witch, and now a Jaws reaction on the water?! You're a one of a kind reactor. Great reaction! 👍🏿👍🏿 You're more proof that Jaws has aged very well like a fine wine.
This was a great reaction! I'm glad I found it. Your sense of humor made it extra fun. Your bold choice of being on the water, at dusk and then in the dark, was awesome! I'm not sure if I felt more empathy for Quint being devoured alive by sharks, or you by mosquitos. I give your reaction a 10 mosquitos out of 10!
Just when I though Kat couldn’t be anymore lovable she continues to raise the bar. I don’t think anyone has ever reacted to the Blair Witch Project or Jaws the way she has. You are awesome Kat and we love you for making these reaction videos so much fun. Thank you for reacting to one of my favorite films. It’s really scary because we hear about shark attacks all the time. Despite being extremely rare, it plays into our primal fear of being hunted by a predator. No one was safe in this movie, not even dogs and kids. Even though that shark which the crew nicknamed Bruce is reference to Steven Spielberg’s lawyer was always malfunctioning, it’s still so much scarier and more convincing than all the other shark films that have been made since. Quint’s monologue about his experiences on the U.S.S. Indianapolis during World War II is still so haunting, especially since that really did happen. Can’t wait to see what other films you get to react to. Thank you Kat! Take care ✌🏼
17:58 yes, some sharks do in fact bite boats, if the sharks are big enough. They often take exploratory bites of things they don't fully recognize, in a "can I eats it?" frame of mind. That's usually what most shark "attacks" on humans are, a single bite, enough to tell the shark we aren't tasty.
@@robertphillips213True, although the shark attacks the book was based on occured in New Jersey and two of the deaths happened in a fresh water stream, which is why many believe the rogue shark was a bull shark, not a great white.
A "log" might be a few hundred snakes crossing a river together. Usually poisonous ones. Swimming across, see a log, hug it to catch your breath, which scares them, and before you can scream enough venom to kill an elephant.
I'm about 30 seconds into the video & the shopped in shark behind her is cracking me up! Great job, Kat. 🦈😍 Also, I haven't read through all the comments, but just in case; there are a lot of BTS stories about how the mechanical shark was always screwed up & didn't work right. There is a play out called The Shark Is Broken & it stars Ian Shaw playing his father, Robert Shaw (Quint). It looks like a fantastic play & I wish I was in NY to be able to go see it. There are some videos & interviews out there about it. I recommend any Jaws fans seek it out. Oh yeah, Ian is practically a clone of his father. It's a little eerie.
The first time I saw Jaws it was at a sleepover at my friend's house when we were about 9 or 10 and we knew it would be on TV that night. We watched it in his bedroom and huddled on our chairs watching with the lights out as his blue carpet seemed to become the ocean, full of dangers. I admire your dedication! 🦈
Years ago i watched Jaws while floating in a tube on Lake Travis in Austin TX. It was an event put on by the Alamo Drafthouse theater. They had scuba divers that would swim under and grab your feet! 😢 We had shark gazpacho to eat, too.
Truly 1 of a kind, with the greatest smile ever. The, "IF something were to touch my butt" line was so you, and only 1 of the reasons your my favorite reactor on UA-cam. Kudos to you Katt, love your channel.
Kat, I sincerely admire you... Not for watching this movie on the water, but for doing it at nightfall in a place full of mosquitos with a spot on you for us to see your reactions... It would have drive me insane in less than half an hour (or get me intoxicated with the spray of the dozens of anti-bugs canister I'd have spend). And you really didn't have to do that. Hope you had a nice experience anyway !
I was very interested in seeing Kat's reaction to Quint and I was not disappointed. His character is one of a kind. Once again, Kat goes above and beyond the call.
Honestly this is revolutionary stuff in the UA-cam reactor genre!!! Everyone loves the simple in your room or living room way of reacting cause thats pretty much the way most people watch movies but i think its more scarier to be in the element kf the movie itself. Awesome
This is the best and most original way to react to a classic movie. I've said it before and I'll say it again, this is the best horror movie reaction channel. Thanks for sharing these videos.
Kat, you are without doubt the star of internet reactors. Oh my girl your FACE when that shark came out of the water!!! It was the absolute highlight of my day 🎉
Talk about taking dedication to a whole new level. Such a Kat thing to do. Only she could make such dedication to her fans in what I think we can all agree an interesting but amazing way. Proud of how far your channel has grown Kat!😊
How underrated is it? We can't actually see the like/dislike ratio anymore for some stupid reason, so you can't really know. All you know is that it's presently smallish, which is not the same as it being disliked.
@@Corn_Pone_Flicks, I have no idea what you're on about, "how underrated is it?" huh? " so you can't really know", know what? I'm saying the channel is underrated based on personal opinion. I feel she produces amazing content, so what I'm saying is I feel she should have WAY more subs. Underrated means "not rated or valued high enough", it has nothing to do with number of dislikes.
You keep upping the bar for reactors! I had nightmares for years as a child when I saw it in the theater when I was a kid, fully expected to die by shark! Your dedication to us is friggin awesome. I can't wait to see what you do next!
My favorite thing about this reactions (aside creativity) you did it at the right time of day and seeing it get darker as the story gets more suspenseful was perfect.
Well, these just keep on getting better. I've just binged all of your videos after stumbling over the 28 Days Later one, truly hilarious. The Hereditary one is possibly my favourite as you turned a deeply upsetting film into a laugh riot. My suggestion for a movie is REC, a Spanish horror film that scared the leaping Jesus out of me. I would love to see you do that one in some sort of abandoned tower block, has potential to be a classic reaction. Edit: I've just watched the Grudge one. Holy hell, that is now my favourite!
This girl is already my favorite reactor to horror films but the effort she put into these last couple of videos is legendary. I would love for her to react to all the greatest film of all time (not just horror) I'd pay for that.
Spielberg can do horror very well. I think you should do his War of the Worlds movie, it's pretty underrated. Also, the original author of the Jaws book came to regret writing it because he felt it contributed to fear of sharks and people overhunting them to the point that several species became endangered, so he became a shark conservationist to make up for it.
Had a few close encounters with sharks, cage diving off South Africa and also northern waters in Australia. Those creatures are pure muscle, incredible power. How Mick Fanning managed to punch a Great White and survive is pretty astonishing.
sitting out there in a lake after dark i wouldnt be thinking about Jaws. id be thinking of the ending of the first Friday the 13th movie. this was a great reaction! this is taking it to a whole new level. thats what you call dedication! Thank You Kat!

Apparantely the tiger shark scene was due to be filmed starting on the Monday (in mid May 1974) but by the end of the previous week the local fishermen had only delivered some small blue sharks so on the Friday Teddy Grossman and an old Hollywood boat advisor called Freddie Zendar in desperation flew down to Sarasota, Florida. They hired local guys who caught the tiger shark and brought it to them at nightfall on the Saturday, and wanted more money than agreed. It was flown to the Vineyard on the Sunday. Zendar flew with the crate in a small private plane while Grossman had to take a commercial airline back. It was all ready to start filming on the Monday, right on schedule.

I really appreciate the timing of the sun going down and the men bonding in the boat at night! Not to mention, while floating on water at night. Now that's one brave woman!👍🏼🇨🇦
There's something to watching these types of movies outdoors that really adds an ambiance to it. A few years back I went to Film on the Rocks out here in Colorado and they were showing the classic Twister at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. By the time the cows started flying, a huuuuge t-cell storm moved in over Denver, so behind the screen was just black gnarly cloths with flashes of lightning. We eventually caught the outskirts of it and a little wind/rain really set the mood for the climax of the movie.
24:50 That's one of my all-time favorite shots, with John Williams score to accompany it....CLASSIC!!!🦈🦈🦈
When I was in college, the dorms did a screening of Jaws in the pool. People who had seen the movie watched from the sides (and laughed our butts off!) as the people who'd never seen it before screamed. The first time Bruce jumps out of the water to scare Brody, a few people touched the butts of some people in the inner tubes. I had to go change my pants I laughed so hard!
"Fishermen. It's what's for dinner." Love it!
You’ve opened a whole new way to do reactions. You’re a pioneer! This is awesome and you’re reactions are always so good/funny!
Yeah this is the next generation, I wouldn't be surprised to see more reactors copy this format in the next 6-12 months
I love how it pulled back to show Kat in her pool float when she was saying "None of these teeny teeny boats".
😂😂 I also saw this & laughed at that part as well, I figured someone would mention this, lol!
Jaws was an unexpected masterpiece of a movie. While the crew were working on it, they thought it was gonna fail due to the difficulties they faced while making it. The shark animatronics not working due to the saltwater of the ocean damaging the inner workings among other things.
As a result of the shark animatronics not working, Spielberg had go work around showing the shark without actually showing it and it worked out beautifully!
Kind of a shame this film gave sharks a bad rep for decades. Yet, dolphins are often seen as super friendly but they can be vicious as heck. :O
One of the famous anecdotes is the crew excitedly yelling over the radio "The shark is working! The shark is working! The boat is sinking!"
@carn9507
"Kind of a shame this film gave sharks a bad rep for decades"
Sharks already had a bad rep well before Jaws. That's what the mayor in Jaws literally says "you yell shark, and we've got a panic on our hands".
Jaws actually created a massive boom in interest in sharks, and this lead to far more knowledge and understanding.
@@lyndoncmp5751 "Speaking on BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs on Sunday, Spielberg responded to a question asking how he would feel if he was on a desert island surrounded by shark-infested waters.
“That’s one of the things I still fear-not to get eaten by a shark, but that sharks are somehow mad at me for the feeding frenzy of crazy sport fishermen that happened after 1975,” Spielberg tells BBC Radio 4’s Lauren Laverne. “I truly, and to this day, regret the decimation of the shark population because of the book and the film.”
Jaws spearheaded a “collective testosterone rush” among fishers in the East Coast of the United States, leading thousands to hunt sharks for sport, as George Burgess, former director of the Florida Program for Shark Research, told the BBC in 2015. In the years following the film’s release, the number of large sharks in the waters east of North America declined by about 50 percent."
Not sure all them fishermen were that understanding. :P
The attack on Chrissie Watkins at the beginning consisted of actress Susan Backlinie in a rig with ropes attached to her hips on either side, and one down on her leg. The guide ropes were run off to a team of big guys who pulled her around with all their might. She was of course informed about how this was all going to work, and did a little light practicing, but Steven left off how strong they would be pulling. He told the crew to really lay into the ropes and so her screams were the first take sudden shock reaction to being dragged uncontrollably.
Amazing reaction, Kat! This is one of the big ones, the film that created the modern Summer Blockbuster.
My wife and I used to throw 'Jaws on the Water' parties, invited friends over, set up a projector outside and watched the film on the side of the house while swimming in our pool. Tons of fun.
She has my respect! what she does is so creative and also very original with her ideas! Keep it up Kat! ❤
LOVE your reactions, Kat! 🙂
The line, "You're gonna need a bigger boat," was an adlib by actor Roy Schneider (Chief Brody) as he was genuinely shocked at seeing the size for the first time. Spielberg loves it, and decided to leave it in, and it has become one of the best known lines in Hollywood history. I think it was made even better by the many times Brody kept ...repeating it! LOL.
Can't wait for the next one. But, I THINK I saw something swimming around behind your "boat" a few times too. 🤔☺️😉
OK, I'm loving your creativity in these newer videos. Blair Witch in the woods, Jaws on the water. 😊 So great!
“If something were to touch my butt right now, everything would go sideways.” - Kat 2023
Definitely words to live by.
How does this channel not have at least 500k subscribers? This is gold and so is Kat. Hilarious and entertaining. Best reaction channel in existence.
Years ago I saw Jaws while floating in the middle of Lake Travis in Texas. Diver swam around below us, grabbing our feet, during the movie. It was hilarious.
so proud of Kat's devotion to mix it up with these location based reactions
It's OK Kat, you were never in any real danger. Any potential predator would have been too confused by the combination of swimwear and a tuque to do anything.
Canadian?
@@blairhaffly1777 Yup, French Canadian to be more precise. We're a special breed, the rudeness of the French part sometimes cancels out the politeness of the Canadian part. Didn't mean to throw anyone off by not calling it a beanie. 😁
@@Jay_delachance Sorry but your French side must be slipping, no rudeness perceived. I like the word tuque, only learned it recently.
I actually recently learned the word “tuque” from another Canadian reactor (Neil reacts)…and now I know how to spell it, lol.
@@TheLisa-Al-GaibI learned it from Bob and Doug McKenzie. (SCTV)
THIS is now the BEST reaction channel ever! This lady has balls!! First she watches Blair Witch in the 'forest' at night, then JAWS in the 'water'.....too good! Too fun!! I'm subscribed now. Can't wait for the next reaction. Keep smiling🙂👍
I will NEVER forget Chief Brody chumming the water, and the shark coming up next to his arm. I still remember everyone going to the beach when this came out in the summer of 1976 and looking around for sharks. This movie was inspired by a Bull Shark attacking a coastal New Jersey town.
“Now that’s a good sized boat to not get eaten in! Not like these other dingies.” Oh, how wrong you were at the time. And I enjoyed every second :) 😅thanks for the reaction!
i am absolutely loving this new way your watching films. next is grave encounters in an abandoned asylum.
I loved Grave Encounters! Still one of my favorite horror movies.
I agree with everyone else that this is an incredibly original way to do reactions. There are so many reactors out there and it’s a real challenge to stand out!
Loved this! Next do Tremors sitting in a dirt sheepyard… with sheep!
These on location reviews with an environment that matches the film is kinda awesome! Here's hoping you do more of these!
First Blair Witch, and now a Jaws reaction on the water?! You're a one of a kind reactor. Great reaction! 👍🏿👍🏿 You're more proof that Jaws has aged very well like a fine wine.
This was a great reaction!
I'm glad I found it.
Your sense of humor made it extra fun.
Your bold choice of being on the water, at dusk and then in the dark, was awesome!
I'm not sure if I felt more empathy for Quint being devoured alive by sharks, or you by mosquitos.
I give your reaction a 10 mosquitos out of 10!
Lordy yes! I was terrified a Junebug was gonna fly into her mouth! Ever happen to you? Not fun.
So fun you did this! I've watched jaws on my floaty was great. Lake of course 😆 . On the ocean nope nope nopity nope. Great job.
Just when I though Kat couldn’t be anymore lovable she continues to raise the bar. I don’t think anyone has ever reacted to the Blair Witch Project or Jaws the way she has. You are awesome Kat and we love you for making these reaction videos so much fun.
Thank you for reacting to one of my favorite films. It’s really scary because we hear about shark attacks all the time. Despite being extremely rare, it plays into our primal fear of being hunted by a predator. No one was safe in this movie, not even dogs and kids. Even though that shark which the crew nicknamed Bruce is reference to Steven Spielberg’s lawyer was always malfunctioning, it’s still so much scarier and more convincing than all the other shark films that have been made since. Quint’s monologue about his experiences on the U.S.S. Indianapolis during World War II is still so haunting, especially since that really did happen.
Can’t wait to see what other films you get to react to. Thank you Kat! Take care ✌🏼
It's so nice to watch someone that actually puts a lot of effort into reaction videos. these have been so much fun to watch
I’ve watched dozens of Jaws reactions, and this one was far and away the best.
17:58 yes, some sharks do in fact bite boats, if the sharks are big enough. They often take exploratory bites of things they don't fully recognize, in a "can I eats it?" frame of mind. That's usually what most shark "attacks" on humans are, a single bite, enough to tell the shark we aren't tasty.
I can confidently say I've never seen any reactor do this before. I think you're on to something special here.
Best beware of those pesky freshwater log sharks!!! 😁😁
Great reaction as always, love the "on location" shtick. 😊😊
Not to mention those Squalus Mosquitos!
There ARE fresh water sharks. Mostly, they keep to the Mississippi and warmer waters but yeah, there are sharks that can and do live in big rivers.
Bull sharks have been found in the great lakes.
@@robertphillips213True, although the shark attacks the book was based on occured in New Jersey and two of the deaths happened in a fresh water stream, which is why many believe the rogue shark was a bull shark, not a great white.
A "log" might be a few hundred snakes crossing a river together. Usually poisonous ones. Swimming across, see a log, hug it to catch your breath, which scares them, and before you can scream enough venom to kill an elephant.
I love that you’re filming in such fun locations. I literally made popcorn.
I’d love to see you watch Midsomer in a field of flowers 💐
Everyone assumes the shark bit the leg off of that guy in the pond, but it actually bit the guy off of that leg.
I'm about 30 seconds into the video & the shopped in shark behind her is cracking me up! Great job, Kat. 🦈😍 Also, I haven't read through all the comments, but just in case; there are a lot of BTS stories about how the mechanical shark was always screwed up & didn't work right. There is a play out called The Shark Is Broken & it stars Ian Shaw playing his father, Robert Shaw (Quint). It looks like a fantastic play & I wish I was in NY to be able to go see it. There are some videos & interviews out there about it. I recommend any Jaws fans seek it out. Oh yeah, Ian is practically a clone of his father. It's a little eerie.
I’m dying to see the behind the scenes of how you set this up 🤣 Loving these “on the scene” reactions!
Oh man I didn't even think about that ...that would be pretty cool
TONS of Patreon exclusives that I'd happily pay for!
Kat, you're a champ. I've never seen anyone look behind them more during a horror reaction. 😂
Yessss!!! Kat is going to need a bigger boat. Lol.
🤣🤣
I've been planning that comment for days and you beat me to it, my life is over.
@Sandy-dd4le I am so sorry, Sandy.
We're gonna need a bigger float.
The first time I saw Jaws it was at a sleepover at my friend's house when we were about 9 or 10 and we knew it would be on TV that night. We watched it in his bedroom and huddled on our chairs watching with the lights out as his blue carpet seemed to become the ocean, full of dangers. I admire your dedication! 🦈
Years ago i watched Jaws while floating in a tube on Lake Travis in Austin TX. It was an event put on by the Alamo Drafthouse theater. They had scuba divers that would swim under and grab your feet! 😢 We had shark gazpacho to eat, too.
28:20 ICONIC 😂🦈💯
I’m so glad you reacted to my favorite movie & on the water? That’s commitment!!!
Truly 1 of a kind, with the greatest smile ever. The, "IF something were to touch my butt" line was so you, and only 1 of the reasons your my favorite reactor on UA-cam. Kudos to you Katt, love your channel.
Kat, I sincerely admire you... Not for watching this movie on the water, but for doing it at nightfall in a place full of mosquitos with a spot on you for us to see your reactions... It would have drive me insane in less than half an hour (or get me intoxicated with the spray of the dozens of anti-bugs canister I'd have spend). And you really didn't have to do that. Hope you had a nice experience anyway !
I was very interested in seeing Kat's reaction to Quint and I was not disappointed. His character is one of a kind. Once again, Kat goes above and beyond the call.
Fun fact Bull sharks have been found in the Mississippi river as far as Iowa.
Honestly this is revolutionary stuff in the UA-cam reactor genre!!! Everyone loves the simple in your room or living room way of reacting cause thats pretty much the way most people watch movies but i think its more scarier to be in the element kf the movie itself. Awesome
“We’ve got bigger fish to fry, ma’am.” 😂 Love it!
This is the best and most original way to react to a classic movie. I've said it before and I'll say it again, this is the best horror movie reaction channel. Thanks for sharing these videos.
When you said tiny ships and you zoomed out to your donut raft I laughed my butt off! Great stuff!
Kat, you are without doubt the star of internet reactors. Oh my girl your FACE when that shark came out of the water!!! It was the absolute highlight of my day 🎉
Talk about taking dedication to a whole new level. Such a Kat thing to do. Only she could make such dedication to her fans in what I think we can all agree an interesting but amazing way. Proud of how far your channel has grown Kat!😊
29k subscribers is criminal for how underrated this channel is, that's the real horror here.
How underrated is it? We can't actually see the like/dislike ratio anymore for some stupid reason, so you can't really know. All you know is that it's presently smallish, which is not the same as it being disliked.
@@Corn_Pone_Flicks, I have no idea what you're on about, "how underrated is it?" huh? " so you can't really know", know what? I'm saying the channel is underrated based on personal opinion. I feel she produces amazing content, so what I'm saying is I feel she should have WAY more subs. Underrated means "not rated or valued high enough", it has nothing to do with number of dislikes.
Gonna watch The Thing from an abandoned research facility in Antarctica
Respect to you! Please react to a cabin in the woods in a cabin in the woods. 😂 That'd be epic!
I think that would really scared Kate bad ! 😂🇺🇸🇲🇽🇮🇹
19:16 I am cryyING! 😂😂😂
"This log is not OK" 🤣🤣🤣
Movie reactors: "Today we're gonna watch Jaws!"
Kat: "hold my floaty"
Once it turned dark, that water was scarying ME! You brave, brave soldier! I love your reactions so much ❣️
Now THIS is immersion! Probably the most innovative reaction I've seen yet! Very well done!
You keep upping the bar for reactors! I had nightmares for years as a child when I saw it in the theater when I was a kid, fully expected to die by shark! Your dedication to us is friggin awesome. I can't wait to see what you do next!
The worst part is, when you went back a day or so later, there was no sign on any "log" in the water.
I always feel like Kat needs a hug after doing one of these videos. I hope you know that we're here for you.
Kat has just changed the game for movie reactions😃
Mosquitos, that's the real horror of this reaction 😂 Thank you so much for your dedication,❤ your charisma ... Best reaction channel ever xx
If she had only sprayed herself, and not the air
Mosquitos, Black flies, Beavers and Snapping Turtles too. An irritated moose as well. Canada is a hellish place.
My favorite thing about this reactions (aside creativity) you did it at the right time of day and seeing it get darker as the story gets more suspenseful was perfect.
Now this, is how you do a Jaws reaction!
On fresh water, you should be watching LAKE PLACID (1999).
Just the idea of Betty White swearing like a sailor IN A HORROR FILM makes it worth while!
Watching scary movies in spooky settings are crazy and amazing.
Well, these just keep on getting better. I've just binged all of your videos after stumbling over the 28 Days Later one, truly hilarious. The Hereditary one is possibly my favourite as you turned a deeply upsetting film into a laugh riot. My suggestion for a movie is REC, a Spanish horror film that scared the leaping Jesus out of me. I would love to see you do that one in some sort of abandoned tower block, has potential to be a classic reaction. Edit: I've just watched the Grudge one. Holy hell, that is now my favourite!
This is brilliant. I love how you’re floating around the screen. 😊
This girl is already my favorite reactor to horror films but the effort she put into these last couple of videos is legendary. I would love for her to react to all the greatest film of all time (not just horror) I'd pay for that.
Spielberg can do horror very well. I think you should do his War of the Worlds movie, it's pretty underrated.
Also, the original author of the Jaws book came to regret writing it because he felt it contributed to fear of sharks and people overhunting them to the point that several species became endangered, so he became a shark conservationist to make up for it.
You're getting so creative in your presentations of these movie reviews. I love it!!
These videos get better and better. As a lifelong horror fan,you've easily become my favourite reactor. Brilliant stuff
Another homerun idea. A movie everyone typically reacts to, but now totally new. I love it.
Had a few close encounters with sharks, cage diving off South Africa and also northern waters in Australia. Those creatures are pure muscle, incredible power. How Mick Fanning managed to punch a Great White and survive is pretty astonishing.
Mosquitos also refer to Kat on a raft as "Plated dinner".
The real horror of this video is the mosquitos. Great reactions. Great video. Love JAWS.
It is always a great day to discover a new Kat reaction!!!
sitting out there in a lake after dark i wouldnt be thinking about Jaws. id be thinking of the ending of the first Friday the 13th movie. this was a great reaction! this is taking it to a whole new level. thats what you call dedication! Thank You Kat!
Great way to watch Jaws. It's even funnier about the mosquitos.
