Just a small point. When she's in the room with the angel, she asks for 'the power to forgive', not forgiveness.
Not a small point imho.
@@BLane-zf8uv Yeah, it’s a shame he got that wrong. It’s such a powerful moment. The culmination of her character development.
Also I'm pretty sure the bundle she lets go in the river is Solomon, not Jack. That actually made me wonder if it's meant to imply that Solomon was the one who killed Jack for a ritual. If you remember, when he was talking to her saying "look at us two," she replies "it isn't that weird" and gives him a look. Her pushing him out into the lake to give him a proper burial is her forgiving him for what he did.
@@person2200 holy shit u just blew my mind!!!
@@person2200 oh my can you elaborate!!! This is a awesome conclusion.
Very interesting to see an angel in a horror movie. Demons are all over the place in horror media, but you hardly see angels. Cool seeing how the presence of 1 angel in this movie scared away a whole group of demons.
Makes sense. In traditional theological hierarchy, demons are right at the bottom of the totem pole, with humans above them and angels above them.
But yeah, it is one of the best depictions of an angel in film: imposing.and terrifying but beautiful and serene at the same time
Angels have been described as terrifying to human eyes. Gabriel has no time for humans
@@femomanI thought humans were above angels. That was the main driver of Lucifer's rebellion and fall. Dude just wanted equality rather than servitude, which IMO is fair enough.
@@PongoXBongohe wanted to be above both humans and God. He didn’t want equality. His major sins were vanity and envy.
I agree , more film makers should show angels in occult/horror films.
I was so blown away by this film. Both actors demonstrated, you don’t need much to make a great story. Credit to both of them for such a creepy, moving story.

You don't need much to make a great story, but the work, concept, writing, and refinement is likely doubled, because a film like this is such a risk to falling off on so many points which can quickly make it a mediocre or bad movie.
They'll never learn, always trying to contact somebody from beyond the grave only to introduce a whole pack of demons into the world.
Actually no. The end of the movie she completes the ritual and meets a benevolent being. This movie is kinda pro occultism since it shows it working at the end.
big
@@sumtingwong8592 although i am catholic i appreciate how accurate they are to mysticism.
These people clearly don’t watch horror films.
cringe
There's so many horror movies I would never have known about or found out about if it wasn't for found flix!
He's definitely put me on to some good ones and help me avoid some bad ones 😂😂
Is this a good one or bad one?🙃
@@anderfu8273 slow burn, but a good one.
Lolllllll
Yeah. It's a good place to come to find new movies to watch, isn't it?
@@anderfu8273 This is a good one, very convincing about magic, the guy, the magician is a jerk and a but sexists, but overall, very good film.
The body she placed in the water was Mr.Solomon, also the favor she wanted was for herself to be granted the power to forgive, (i.e. those who killed her son.) Also she makes it clear that she knows Solomon wasn't her son's killer but it was teenagers foolishly playing around with the occult.
That’s what I thought too.
I'd like to think that the power of forgiveness to asked for wasn't just for her son's killer but also for herself because she partly blames herself for the death of her son.
Could it be that Mr Solomon killed her son in the occult ceremony that didnt go "right"? So she was there to just kill him at the opportune moment and then began to see that the occult promises were real. i mean why else would she hide the vengeance part from him? and when she asks for the ability to forgive, she then as you said, lets the body of Mr Solomon go and sink. Which happens to be his wish, to become invisible.
SO you telling me she coulda asked for the power of teleportation or something and she chose forgiveness? Lame ;P
This...would've been like a jumper, but able to actually kick some ass with MY martial arts skills,combat reflexes, strength, and power. Probably would fight crime...or just do whatever tf I want.
🖨️💯🧔🏽
Personally I always liked the part where she asks the angel her favor, and the angel smiles. It's like at first she was angry because of the ritual, but after Sophia's request, the angel was relieved. I might be trippin. Either way, this movie was way better than I expected!
when i saw the angel my jaw dropped crazy shit
Nice pfp and nice comment
I agree it was a very heartfelt moment. Though this might sound strange, but the angel creeped me out more than the demons.
@@thestinger5047 Yeah something about not really knowing how powerful the angel is after all the circles were completed. If just the presence of the angel is enough to ward off all those demons on her, it's horrifying to think of what reality bending powers it has at it's disposal. Could literally rebirth her into an entire different person or even entity if possible. The possibilities are endless, I love that so many ideas were included.
Same! It feel so good, like the angel likes that she actually wants to improve instead of lingering in the past
Asking which direction a room faces in a house you're considering buying isn't odd, it's a standard thing to want to know. It determines the amount of light you can expect the room to get, and in a country like Ireland, that would be pretty important.
man i know ask me about it my room face west i get 0 sunlight and in the winter my room is the coldest in house
It’s very important. It can make a huge difference. I wish I had asked more questions.
@@inhumanfeeling The apartment I ended up buying is basically a cave, all the windows face a blank brick wall, about a metre from the window. But then I live in Australia, so it's actually great, my place stays super cool in summer. In winter it's literally an icebox though.
@@inhumanfeeling i live in the desert and all my windows face north or south except for two or so, my office has a north facing window, and is somehow just the hottest room in the house lol
You would be amazed how many people in real state have never heard of it.
I thought the body she sent into the lake at the end was Solomon’s, not her sons. Like his physical body that she wrapped up to give a proper send off. Because if she’s able to ask for forgiveness from her angel, it shows that she’s already let her son go and accepted the grieving process.
I thought it was her son. She asked for forgiveness, and when she lied to the guy in the beginning he got a small cut and THEN lying about her son got him stabbed. And the forgiveness was for actually killing her son. But I wonder if it was him.
Ok nm ur right. The body is huge. It was him.
The body had to be Solomon's, she wouldn't have just left it behind. Remember he also wanted to be "invisible".
Yes, I also thought that was Solomon's body, sent off to his wish, to be invisible, and vanishing from the eye of the world.
100% correct. It was Solomon.
I really appreciate this movie for having a positive ending,when you think about it,mostly all of the modern horror movies end on a cliff hanger of sorts to set up the sequel,meaning that the evil has persisted and lived on. In this movie,evil doesn't win in the end,which resonated great with me for one reason or the other :)
@Aleksa Vuletic Honestly the fact the majority of these type of movies end badly irks me. Not every horror movie needs to have a sequel or a depressing ending just for the sake of it. Not to mention it feels like I wasted time if the main evil just shrugs away everything the cast does.
@@decidueyezealot8611 that was the idea of old horror. Nothing you do can stop a force like this.
It did though. The evil persisted. The monsters who killed her child lived on. You think murderers who kill for no reason will become the best of people once they are forgiven? It's bullshit. Bad people are always bad. Rotten to their core. The murderers did not learn their lesson and this forgiveness only allows them to go and hurt more people.
@@alien1299 Realistically, yeah lol. But I think by the rules of the movie, I think some kind of cosmic scale is implied. So I think you can walk away from the movie thinking that the people who killed her son will get theirs. Just the mother doesn't need to carry the soul stain of vengeance.
yep, modern movies and especially modern anime, all end on dark depressing notes, kill all the main characters off. Modern media in general! The world is getting darker and darker every day
I love how at the end she’s holding her hands to stop the bleeding but it also makes her hands in the prayer position. Loved that detail
Good eye, I never noticed that!
The bundle Sophia pushes in the river at the end, is Solomon's body. He died in the house, and, in a weird way she helped him posthumously accomplish his wish, which was to disappear. Also if she just left a dead body in the house, she might be charged with murder. At least that's my take on it. Frightening movie, especially considering the rituals it depicts are real.
Seriously? These rituals are real? All of them?
@@maasoomahabdul8872 The Abramelin ritual is very real. Although in film, the version is altered, for obvious reasons.
@@maasoomahabdul8872 Oh yeah. Aleister Crowley famously tried the ritual at least twice. He didn't finish it the first time but (according to him) finished it the second time.
@@maniatissa Why obvious reasons?
@@viralchallengeselfie7200 Because the filmakers are aware that there will always be ignorant idiots who will to copy and do the ritual (any ritual) for that matter. So, the details are altered or not shown in film.
I love this movie!
So, fun fact I don't recall you bringing up... Her name, Sofia/Sophia, is just as meaningful as Solomons. It's a reference to the idea of the divine feminine in Gnosticism. Also a reference to a very important Gnostic book called the Pistis Sophia.
And Hagia Sophia
@@DadsWatchingUA-cam Possibly; but to my understanding there isn't a gnostic connection to the Hagia Sophia. That's just the Greek for "holy wisdom". But naming her Sophia in the movie was definitely a conscious decision
It wasn't
@@thomas8552 There definitely isn’t a gnostic connection to the Hagia Sophia since that title is an orthodox theological title of Jesus along with Logos. In closer inspection however, the Hagia Sophia refers to the earth-dwelling energies of God, personified in the incarnate Jesus, by which we can experience the divine and achieve theosis. In this sense, Jesus is the Holy Wisdom of God which illuminates and redeems the human soul through the Holy Spirit, giving it a place in the divine Kingdom of Heaven. Though a strictly orthodox view, many similarities can be noted with the Pistis Sophia according to which Sophia is the syzygia of Christ and the essence of human souls which are redeemed by the Savior through Gnosis and returned to the Treasury of Light. I think the similarities between these two are the result of a common background in Greek philosophy. Also, I would be hesitant to describe gnostic Sophia as the “divine feminine” since that’s a new-age, dualistic and abstract term which fails to capture the immanent and lesser nature of Sophia. Nevertheless, I think the names of the two mains reflects Solomon’s god-given wisdom as well as the book “Wisdom of Solomon” which contains much talk of holy wisdom, eschatology, good and evil, all key themes in the esoteric background of the movie
I was just reading about Sophia when studying the nag hammadi library.
imagine having to choose between this ritual or just regular therapy, and still going with the ritual.
No comparison.
Therapy ain’t cheap tbf
@@Nandoswitharando she paid thousands to Solomon tho
All the gods he calls her before drowning her in the bathtub (& bringing her back) have resurrection stories in their mythology
This could honestly be a kinda sick series. Different people with different backstories asking for different things. Some succeed some fail. Various rituals and various gurus to help them and their different ways of guiding them through. Some are real, some are frauds, and like Solomon, some are flawed. Etc etc actually I wanna write these.
That would be such a good series
Go for it! I hope you started writing it already.
I love how the angel was both beautiful and intimidating
The most unrealistic part of this movie was an Irish rent firm trying to convince someone to NOT pay a year of rent in advance
LOL
The wikipedia page says that at the end she's giving Solomon a water funeral. In a way he gets his wish of being invisible
Edit: I should add this movie is one of my favorites. The end gets me every time
aw
that's cute until i remember the jerk off scene lol
Agree 💯. Watched this multiple times and was one of my fav films of the past few years.
The lady with two swords in the book is literally the two of swords in the tarot. Lady justice guarding the path to the island. The true self.
Please do an explained for "The Dead Center". It's a great movie, free on prime and I was surprised by how good the cinematography was. There are a lot of themes about depression and suicide and I think it's worthy of an explanation. It reminds me of saint Maud in many ways but definitely much more gore.
What's there to explain if its straight forward smfh
Thanks for stating where we can watch it for free, will check it out!
@@DensilGrant I think the movie itself was simple if taken literally but I think there was a lot to analyze about the themes it's trying to get across. Like for example the fire never being well explained or the characters suffering trauma having different interactions with the entity than others.
ua-cam.com/video/vaLCwbPgmDw/v-deo.html
@u know me heyy thats cruel lol!!! linking too something else entirely random... someone else's video for clickbait / views xD no one should click on it, its too some type of coffee or something lol!!! def not a video on "the dead center" but omg i looked up that movie n seems interesting!!! def gonna check it outttt !!!
I think if they went for a biblical angel design that would be so trippy and awesome. Like the one with the eyeballs and 4 heads
People act like the weird looking angels are the only ones that exist, and that's not true, every time God sends an angel messenger, it looks like a human.
there are biblical angels that are human but probably Adam-sized, like this one. so pretty accurate as well
That's a higher level of angel. Guardian Angel are more closer to human.
@@nerdycat2625 I didn’t say it was the only ine 😒 I just said it would be cool
@@conq1273 tbh though angels don’t look like any of those things anyway since they are spirits. how we see them is limited to our human perception, we wouldn’t be able to comprehend what they actually look like. 🤷♀. But it would cool and add to the horror aspect of the movie if they went for that weird design.
When will people learn that trying to contact your dead loved ones never ends well and it's usually never your dead loved ones that respond
Yeah, either leads you to learning an important life lesson and becoming a better person, or most likely, leads to suffering, death and destruction.
Either way, you're never going to see me doing no rituals like this.🤷🏾♂️
Well maybe because we humans are stubborn sometimes...
We end up being selfish, that we are blinded to not accept what is already done or what is real.
Emotions Blind our Rationality...
That's why its dangerous for too much emotions. It drives us to go aimlessly..in chaos.
These movies want you to think that.
Yup spirits,demons,and maybe even an angel could be like hmmm a host vessel time to run some game on humans with some smooth finesse
Yep. It was revenge she originally wanted. Lied Solomon and that's why they performed the purification ritual.
I saw this a when it first came out. It is pretty intense. Especially when the Angel finally appears.
The idea you have to walk through Hell to get to salvation
I have truly never seen another movie ending like this one. The idea of the main protagonist actually seeing a higher being is so cool to me, and the design was incredible. I wish more movies, especially suspense/thriller/horror dabbled in that kind of imagery, instead of copping out and pulling the "unimaginable cosmic horror" trope.
"Solomon has his own issues, he's a piece of slimy sh*t who abused his power- *NOW A WORD FROM TODAYS SPONSOR*" lol XD
I really like the way the focus down on the world in the house and the rest of the world kind of really does disappear outside the front door of the house. And I love the way they mimic later in the movie with the never ending loop leading back to the house. Such an artfully crafted atmospheric flick, one of a kind really.
Joseph Solomon killed her son.
It was strongly hinted at, her son was killed in a ritual and Joseph even asks her if she thinks he did it.
His last words to her was "I am..."
I think he was about to confess.
He dies a horrible death like she wished for and Joseph even says the ritual is working when he gets stabbed.
Lastly when she gets her wish she does a burial ritual with him..
Am I the only one that thinks this??
She asks to be
It's a nice theory. But it has no real support.
"I Am" is also what is said at the beginning of many rituals - it also could refer to what God in the story of the burning bush said to Moses initially
my oldest daughter passed away so I get the woman's desire, it's the hardest thing I've ever been through. but doing rituals like this welcomes all sorts of nonsense into your life. and I'm not willing to put my kids and partner in danger. especially when there's no guarantee you'll even be able to speak with your loved one.
I’m sorry for your loss.
I'm deeply sorry for your loss
Always remember
"Let the dead be dead, set them free and you'll set yourself free also"
And I'm sorry for your loss.
And you know they want you to accept it and find happiness. They're on their next adventure👌
You've experienced my biggest fears
"there is power in knowing that there are things outside of our reality" means specifically that in you as an individual knowing that reality isn't as "concrete" as everything around you believes.....it gives you the ability to work in realms other people have no idea exist, and thus limits their capability by default.
some people are so deathly afraid of that world it won't matter if they do know they wouldn't approach it even if it meant life or death.
This movie really resonates with me because it reminds a lot of how I overcame my PTSD and trauma as a victim of a violent mugging a few years ago.
In essence this is what ritual is about. It evokes our “demons” and forces them to conform to our Will. In occultism your PTSD would be given a name, evoked into the triangle. Made to swear allegiance to you on your sword, Then invoked into your body under your complete control. As a result your PTSD subsides and your regain control of your life. PTSD is a vague concept - give it a form and a voice (demon) within ritual and you can define, appreciate and control it. Cured.
🤣🤣🤣
I remember I was shocked after finding out that the Abramelin ritual is an actual ritual people do to try and get in direct contact with their guardian angel (not many though - when Aleister Crowley did it, it reportedly hadn't been performed in centuries). Sounds like hell. Even if you don't believe in the supernatural the ritual itself is rough. I see some confusion in the comments about the demon summoning. Summoning demons is done on purpose because it's a dark magic ritual that requires you to overcome the 12 biggest baddies in hell (including Lucifer). Supposedly, if you can't bind them then you become possessed or die. Personally, I don't believe in magic, but I still don't know why anyone would really want to risk it lol
I don't believe either in god nor in magic but if somebody would pay me a 10.000$ to do this ritual I would probably say no.
@Andy makes sense
@rollingstoun577 it takes 18 months, you'd be better off working at McDonald's
One thing I'm confused by, but maybe there's something in the movie itself that clarifies this. When Solomon pins her to the table and insists she tells the truth, she admits that she didn't want her son back, she wanted vengeance on the teen hooligans who murdered Jack doing their own satanic ritual.
But then after he's stabbed, and she talks about her son some more, she says that he was taken from daycare one day, but they never found the body or tied it to anyone being responsible. The case was closed after three years, and Jake was tragically forgotten. So how did she know about the teen hooligans? Or, if that was another lie, why would she still be lying at that point, and who was she actually trying to get vengeance against?
I feel like I'm missing something, so if there's something in the movie that clarifies this, I'd appreciate the assist.
i saw a comment saying that it might be solomon who killed sophia's child in a previous ritual and thats why he died
@@alfin5818 hm, interesting, he asks her if she thinks it was him and she says no, and he says something along the lines of “always those stupid teens/they’re cursed now”, I didn’t think it was him, but it’s possible.
Man, I had my doubts but after I finished watching this movie, I have to say this has to be one of the best movies I have ever seen. And one of the most unforgettable performance ever by Steve Oram and Catherine Walker. Absolutely amazing.
Have to admit to being too scared to watch a lot of scary movies. Watching your channel opened up a lot of great movies. Ty.
I absolutely loved this movie. Stumbled upon it in the middle of the night. I couldn’t remember the name. Love this channel.
I've never heard of this movie but after watching your synopsis I was instantly reminded of 2006 Bug. I had to look through your catalog to see if you have done it and sadly no. I highly recommend an ending explained of "Bug"
Dude thank you so much for this. I swear NOBODY has done a deep dive into this gem. Nice to finally see it get some love.
This movie is one of my favorite horror movies of all time. It drips with intensity and atmosphere. Like Hereditary, I love how the movie is just as much about unpacking grief as it is delivering supernatural chills
I am SO happy you did this movie. There were some scenes that were difficult to sit through to say the least, not because of lack of quality, but the exact opposite. And the ending never fails to bring a tear to your eye, after ALL that, thinking it was all for naut, BAM there He is. It's beautiful. Another banger video, as usual. Never stop, we love you man💜
I just want to be another comment amongst the many. But can we agree that we are all. Happy for foundflix getting larger sponsors. It doesn't sound right to say I'll watch them no matter what but so far I'm just glad they are getting brand deals which support them. I'm so happy they are being expanded by sponsors after all these years!
Dude... This is a step down in sponsors. He had an actual film studio sponsor for a while.
No seriously he's been deserved sponsorships years ago when his quality content was first rolling in
Glad there's a decent movie where the ritual actually does what it's supposed to instead of just "HURR DURR DEMONS YOU DIE NOW" like 90% of horror/supernatural movies seem to do.
I find it interesting how during the final moments the injury to her hand sort of forces her hand into a prayer like position as she runs from the demons and encounters the angel
Yay! I've been waiting (and rooting) for this to be presented and explained by you for a long time! One of my favorite horrors with a slow buildup. The last moments are insane!
This depiction of an occult ritual in this film is the closest to a real ritual ever committed to film. Short of filming an actual ritual that is.
Perfect timing as always foundflix ♥️ love having you as part of my Sunday routine
Man, I really felt her anger, desperation and deep sadness. The hallmark of stellar acting and film making.
Finally, six years later, someone explained that film to me
I just watched this movie last Friday and was absolutely thrilled you have reviewed it, i love this movie. Thank you.
omg thanks for covering this! it's one of my favourite horror movies
I was listening to this while driving, so I didn't see the visuals and just heard the story. The first thing I noticed was their names. Solomon is a derivative of the Hebrew word "Shalom", meaning peace or Peaceful One. Joseph is derived from the Hebrew word Yosef, meaning "God will add" or "God will increase". So, "God will increase peace".
And that's exactly the gift Solomon ended up giving her (I'll have to watch the movie to see if he got his).
Sophia is a Greek word meaning Wisdom. It's actually more than a name - it's kind of an entity, embodying wisdom and skill. Add to that that King Solomon was basically the supreme king of wisdom in the Old Testament, and you've got a lot riding on the concept of wisdom.
I went ahead and looked up the name Howard, since they clearly thought out these names. It's derived from an old Normandy/Germanic word, Hugihard, meaning "Heart-brave".
They kinda spelled out the whole movie, just in their names. Now I want to watch this movie just for all the spiritual concepts they covered.
Just clicked the video, but I wanna say - this movie and The Ritual were, for quite some time, all I could recommend to people for Netflix gems and I'm super happy you've covered both of them now.
I absolutely fucking loved this movie. It was such a mind fuck from beginning to end, but I just couldn't stop watching.
You should seriously consider covering The Alchemists Cookbook. Very trippy movie much like this one.
@Tim Rice enjoy! It's a very well done indie style movie
I started watching that one
I think that a creepy perverted person in fiction is perceived as worse than an evil person because creeps are much more common to encounter in real life.
This movie is so slept on. Absolutely love it. 🥰
YOU FINALLY DID THIS MOVIE!!!!!!! Yes I love this movie.
^
if the circle actually brought everything that died in the area to that one place, there would be a shitton more bugs
FINALLY!! I’ve been waiting for you to do this one!!
I love watching recaps and “explained” videos to get caught up on movies and stories I wouldn’t otherwise have time to enjoy. I watched this movie twice after seeing this video. Couldn’t possibly recommend it more. Thank you for your due diligence. ❤
I find it more of a drama with a supernatural bent rather than an outright horror movie. There's something quite poignant and meditative especially the last final scenes.
Does anyone else recognize all of the Aleister Crowley references? He had to find the "perfect house" to do his ritual in and once it began he couldn't stop, or leave the house. He lasted a few weeks, but failed to complete the ritual. He probably got bored or lost motivation, but a lot of what he did is what the characters in this movie are doing.
Instead of drinking human blood, I'm pretty sure it was cat blood and some of his "followers" ended up getting really sick from it... which made me kinda happy, not gonna lie.
Apparently the group he was with was having a schism which drew him away
I’m so glad you did a video on this movie. I use to think about it a lot and how I tried piecing it together when it first came out. Granted when I first watched it I missed the first 10 mins. So I had play detective. Great explanation and break down as always!!!!
Okay, now that movie still resonates with me even after I watched it two years ago, once. That angel scene still freaks me out today. And I could never forget that scene for the rest of my life and it scared me at night, for two weeks after I watched this movie.
that’s why angels usually say to not fear them, because they are more scary than actual demons
Funny how with all the demon scares I was like "that's scary" but that angel scene😂 I still have this weird feeling when I think about it, it was super creepy
I loved this movie even though its slower than most.
@@revaipremium1332 the repulsion you feel toward the angel, in the form of 'creepy', are the parts of you that still need purification. The unpurified parts of your being cannot exist that closely to the presence of such a concentrated divine energy.
After watching this, for the first time, part night, I can see that I've spent the past seven+ years purifying aspects of myself. The appearance of the archangel was a climactic inspiration for me. I could feel that she was going to ask for the ability to forgive, rather than vengeance. I'd been working through a similar pattern myself.
@@acrj-alfasaus4825 Angels show us their true form which scares us as we aren't ready for it. Demons disguise as conventionally beautiful to deceive and harm us.
That was a really great breakdown. Thank you!
Thanks for finally covering this! I loved this movie! I wasn't expecting much, but was blown away. Definitely a slow burn type of film. I didn't think it would end the way it did, but it was definitely unique and memorable.
From what I can tell, this is suprisingly accurate for the ritual aspects. I was surprised for a Movie how well they researched this.
Granted movies always embellish.

I can't remember what but wasn't there some kinda inconsistency with the son. I think he says that Jim Carrey & the mom had met like 11 years ago, but it's never implied that he's a stepdad to the son, who's clearly 14-16.
Something like that. Classic of a movie tho, as silly as it got

Dude thank you so much for making this video, I’ve been trying to find this flick again for like three years.
When I was young my aunt wanted to get in contact with her dead sister, my mom. We were all summoned for the ritual but fortunately nothing happened. It turned out that the guy she had contacted was as fake as they come. Years later, when I think about it I realize how dumb and risky it would have been if the medium had been authentic. It is a simple math problem; what is the probability that you get to the soul you are searching given the endless amount of souls...the probability is so negligent no one should ever try.
Bruh. Wtf

I saw this film when it first was released and has stuck with me for years. They really did their homework on the hocus pocus aspect. I like to think the angel at the end was St. Michael. He has always been portrayed holding a gigantic sword and dressed as a warrior. Watched a terrific movie today full of nasty twists and turns , and would love to hear your review and comments - "The House on the Bayou" playing on Prime. You don't know which way this film is coming or going, but it is thrilling.
Yes please do the House on the Bayou, it was such a good movie!
hey bro love ur content keep up the awesome movie reviews
wow i love your channel and im glade you found a sponsor. i find watching your explanations fun and entertaining. I've watched so many horror movies that they have become boring and predictable. you have brought life back to horror movies for me. plus i can watch a good horror movie in 20 or 30 min instead of hour n half lol. keep going. I'm a huge fan i even subscribed which i don't normally do :).
Why is it always a house in the middle of nowhere with someone is tryingto contact the dead???
This is only tangentially related but this movie put my thoughts in this direction. Even as an atheist myself I have an immense respect for the kind of people who can perform these sorts of religious or spiritual rituals and meditations based only on faith, like those months you see that basically mummified themselves alive. I almost envy the security and calm that that sort of certainty and will must provide for you, even if I've never seen whatever people like that saw that let's them look into the dark and see something larger in it.
You do ending explanations so well! Please make a video on Dark Skies, that movie left me with so much!!
I love this channel ❤️ it's my very fave, I remember the day I found it and watched every movie breakdown I could find 😂 please do The Eyes Of My Mother, what a f'd up movie it was....I'd love to see a breakdown on it!
This movie is FANTASTIC! I think about it a lot because it has one of the scariest scenes in a horror movie I’ve personally ever seen: when the little boy spirit at the door confessed that it’s not really her son and he’s just trying to scare her. I have goosebumps just thinking about it.
For me that was a little bit nice moment because the demon was kinda honest with her and it just makes closer, things get clearer and so less scary.
i'm a little confused on one aspect- why did she always see her son holding the hand of an old lady? Is it supposed to imply something about how he died or maybe where he is in the after life?
Same here.... Who was that old woman and what was her purpose??
Such an underrated hidden gem that pretty much nobody I know has never heard of. One of the few modern horror films that proves you don't need jumpscares galore to make a great horror experience.
That's the first time you explain a movie, that I have already seen. GREAT JOB
Isn’t it probably Solomon’s body, that she pushes into the lake/swamp? Of course the overarching symbolism is that she’s made peace with her son’s death, but.. Solomon’s (real) body had to go somewhere!
never heard of this movie, but imma give it a watch then ill be back. thanks.
Yesss same with me. About to do this now.
This movie looks terrifying. Everyone has that "one thing" which they fear most, and demons is mine. Will have to muster up the courage to check this film out. I found out about the movie "Southbound" through your channel, which was definitely one of my favorite horror flicks of the past 5 years. Up there with Mandy and The Lighthouse. Cheers, and thanks for a super cool channel.
Before the Monday morning slog your videos are an absolute treat to finish my Sunday. Yea, I gotta go to work tomorrow but at least I'm not the folks in these horror films! lol
I absolutely love this movie. It is an intelligent movie, but doesnt come off presumptuous. Its also really deep from emotional, psychological, and religious stand points. And of course the process of grieving.
Please do an explained for "Marianne". It's a French horror series that's pretty trippy
Appreciate your great choices recently!! Thank you.
Yay! I was hoping you would review this movie!
I wonder if that giant angel in the room is Archangel Michael. He's known for carrying around a big sword. Although it looks female angels can take the shape any gender individual
If I'm not mistaken Alister Crowley did this ritual at his house in Loch Ness and didn't finish it.I know after that Jimmy Page bought that house because he was into that stuff.I'm not sure if Page still owns the house or not.
Thanks so much for doing this one!
I asked for this one forever ago! Glad it's finally happening.
Also that was Solomons body which she put in the water. P. S the angel smiled when she asked for forgiveness.
Why don't these people ever just get therapy? Seems a lot easier than trying to summon the dead
Literally my thought lol
🤣
It is very tricky how people would react to something that's so severe like losing one's child. I just cannot imagine what would I feel or how my mental health would be. It is good if people are around you who would suggest stuff like therapy but if one is alone(like isolated from the society,living only with the child) then things become tricky.
This is one of my favorite movies, thanks for the recap!
How did you not cover this movie before. Seen it years back and assumed that it is a must have on your lists
