I'm glad someone else likes this movie. I was surprised to find so many reviews tearing it to shreds, but it's one of the few that's stuck in my mind in the past few years.
As for Karen Gillan? Well, fortunately for me, this was the first show in which I saw her, so I cannot typecast her, except as a gorgeous and talented lady.
The Lasser Glass in itself is a lovecraftian theme that is rarely done with subtlety or a narrow scope. A threat to humanity that is beyond humanity. Whether in our ability to understand it or as an inhuman monster. It is a threat but not on a broad scale. It's a trail that leaves a sinister scar across generations. The glazs isn't an object possessed or housing something. It IS the entity.
That's what I liked about the film. It was unexplained WHAT the mirror exactly was.
@@Ocrilat It's clear that it's.... not a mirror. it's.... something else. We can only perceive it as a mirror. If I should give a guess, I think it's a damage to 'our' reality that radiates out form that mirror. Perhaps it was made with something that contains this bit of 'reality fragmenting' substance. Hence why any level of exposure to being near it is enough to affect people. I doubt it's even an 'entity' as such cuz that'd be putting too much of a 'creature' to it. It merely IS, Hell if we took something like a canon-lovecraftian lore focus on it, the Mirror might very well hold a miniscule fragment of Azathoth within it. Just being near it is enough to cause mild effects, but actually LOOKING upon it is where those tendrils of insanity begins to worm their way inside your mind - quite like how actually hearing/seeing something lovecraftian in that universe is literally damaging to the mind and sanity of someone. The father and mother also only seem to get WORSE as they spend time infront of the mirror.
A purely scientific outlook could postulate a type of radiation that we dunno how to detect yet, what exactly it's made up of and how it functions specifically. Perhaps something in the whatever-substance-makes-up-the-mirror-itself contains this radiation.
@@kinagrill Agreed!
They actually did refer back to the temperature thing later in the movie. When she is desperately trying to get her brother to believe her she makes a point of saying that the temperature has risen 3 degrees since they started. He passes it off as all of her lights creating heat, but the point is that it is referenced. A small correction but it does serve to make u question her sanity and wonder whether or not it was her or her brother who actually deserved to be in the nuthouse.
I think both needed it. Tim is a lot more stable than Kaylie initially. A lot more precautions could have been taken to avoid that 'accidentally standing in the way of the anchor-axe thingy and then tamper-proof that with some sort of sensor so even trying to get past it will cause a likewise shock to the body and mind like with the timer-alarm of Kaylie's husband calling her.
I never noticed tho, but is there a certain timelength from that 'shock' to when the mirror can insert it's influence again?
I also wondered... why not just close your eyes and raise a gun and shoot, since you cannot say for sure if you're aiming correctly or not, thus you cannot be sure if you're actively aiming spot on or a little bit off?
Also a better timer thing would have been to have the mirror drop from a height if the timer goes out, and then also stop anyone from being able to directly touch it as well. Hence why I theorize Kaylie's been affected since childhood and that has lead to how she didn't want to destroy the image initially, but just prove that IT was the cause of her parents going crazy and such. and that Tim was innocent. She did a lot that could be considered 'smart', but equally much that at closer inspection by an outside source (aka. ME!) will show how flawed her approach is in terms of her own security.
I love that unlike most supernatural entities, it at affects adults MORE strongly than children because adults tend to repress more.
Well, at least her father only tried to kill his family this time, not half the universe.
Since Oculus, Mike Flanagan has been killing it with his shows/movies. Easily became one of my favorite writers
This is one of my favorite movies of all time. What would think of a sequel where Tim is in a asylum and they bring in the mirror to convince him that it is just glass and than shit goes down
Personally I always envisioned a sequel would be about the people or person who received kaylies videos.
I think this film is best without any prequels or sequels. It's a perfect film on its own. They'd probably end up spoiling the lore behind the mirror if they were to continue the story. And in my opinion, sometimes it's best to leave the lore unexplained. But don't get me wrong- if done right, I'd be very intrigued to learn more about it.
The twist. The ones that are already imbalanced are immune.
@@deusdeaconReviews What they should do is make a connected universe and have other unrelated objects of whatnot be of note. Perhaps the Burial Spot of the ACTUAL lilith (adam's first and very flawed wife according to... some parts of christianity/judaism... I think?) has always held some sort of sexual or prostitution locale to it (from a tribalistic depravity-hut, to a bordello, etc. etc.), then maybe set it into a victorian period era with like a boarding school for girls where things begin to go truely bad, since that perversion, over time, will grow more and more extreme, what was before pleasurable has become mere Ennui (sorry for more french, it's just a perfect word for it).
Or use something like Art Pieces tied to murders/disappearances - everyone seem able to point out remarkable resemblances between the missing people are the people in the art pieces and the fact they hadn't actually noticed the person in the painting prior to the disapperance (most of them very artfully horrific or just very unsettling in an undefinable way), but beyond that no one seems to go and suspect 'monster art' of course. Just small hints here and there. Maybe twisted versions return in horrific horror-scares and it's never clearly defined if it's all just hallucinations or if there's actually something to the whole art gallery being lovecraftian. Don't put a legit this/that notation. It's up to the viewer to judge. All clues should be at least in part be dismissive but at the same time confirmative so even the viewer (us) can say for sure if the events in the movie are lovecraftian or just.... hallucinatory episodes caused by 'insert reason that will be mentioned in-movie as a plausible explanation..... kinda like how the original Total Recall to this day still have people arguing both narratives as an ending as the true one.
Or a space ship exploring a black hole due to 'reasons'.... maybe it's unique, perhaps a signal has been detected from it, maybe a big silver orb with sigil-like iconography edge into it is hovering just at the edge of the Black Hole's primary gravitational pull.... whatever.
All of it just having a focus around the effects of that black hole, getting too close to it, experiencing time being distorted, realising they've been approaching the blackhole even further, even after having made a full 180 toget away from it, etc. tons of sensory manipulation for both the characters but also the viewers. Like Event Horizon mixed with that Star Trek Voyager episode where Voyager gets too close to a black hole and they cannot seem to get away from it because what they see and what is sensed is mirrored by the event horizon of the black hole's bending of light, etc. etc.
The one problem I do have is that I'm pretty sure that anchor would have destroyed the mirror too. I'm no nautical expert, but I know anchors are REALLY heavy, and I doubt a woman's neck would be enough to stop the force of that thing smashing that mirror into little bitty pieces...sure she'd still be VERY dead, but so would the mirror.
IAmTheUnison RIGHT!!?????
Not to mention the additional barbell weights added to the side.
100% decapitation right there.
not to mention the fact that she attached a bunch of weights to the anchor as well. that thing was going through her, the mirror, the drywall, the studs and the drywall of the next room as well.
@@kevinboudreaux7860 totally. Her head would pop like a grape and the mirror would be destroyed. The mechanism for the anchor might even destroy itself with all that weight.
All the self-mutilation in this movie made me cringe so hard, the fingernails, the teeth, the lightbulb, god it just makes me shrivel up inside.
Me, too.
When they saw themselves messing with the cameras unwillingly, that's when I would've given up immediately. It's like constantly dreaming about getting out of bed only to wake up again, you have no chance.
I would have activated the anchor right then and there.
I just discovered your channel the other day when your review for House On Haunted Hill showed up in my recommended. Been binge watching all your videos since. New subscriber gained!
In recent years, CinemaSins has gone downhill (update: it’s not that they’ve gone downhill, but that I’ve grown out of them), even to the point of pointing out nonexistent plot holes.
CinemaSins has always been this way. They always pointed out non-existent problems or knit-picks to pad their totals.
they base most of their 'sins' on the fact that in order to see it as a sin, you'd have to not pay any attention to the movie
Don’t forget the overdone apple joke!
longliverocknroll5 Exactly. It’s not necessarily a bad concept, but he’s just not the best at executing it, especially in more recent videos. I understand that it’s for comedy, but it gets pretty repetitive.
You understand cinema sins was always a satire type deal
Karen Gillian also played Nebula in Guardians of The Galaxy 1 and 2
hah that's what I was thinking! XD
And well Avengers Infinity War
Seriously?
Dang.
She’s also in the new Jumanji movie
Oh my gosh I never even realise that!
Whoa, before this review I always thought Kaylie's husband died. All of your reviews for this H.P Lovecraft Month were great, but ever since you teased Oculus in your intro I have been eagerly waiting for you to review it. I wanted to see how you would tie it to H.P Lovecraft, and I can happily say it was worth the wait. Great review
+Greed70 Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video
I thought Katee Sackoff as Marie was the creepiest part of the whole movie. Not really when she's full blown crazy. But when her paranoia is escalating and she's becoming more and more unstable and neglectful of her own personal health and her family duties. That scene where she's looking at her self in the mirror revealing that gaping wound is so fucking well done, I love it.
Mike Flanagan is a director to watch out for. So far he has delivered three solid psychological thrillers (this film, Absentia and Hush). He understands the importance of tension and holding back on spoon-feeding the audience. To him, we are on a need-to-know basis and we only find out enough to make us think, but never to truly CONFIRM.
Plus, you are right by saying the Lasserglass (I fucking LOVE that name) is Lovecraftian to it's core. Additionally, a lot of Lovecraft's stories concentrated on the mental health of its characters and by the end, that health has deteriorated beyond recognition or has taken an enormous blow that will never be reconciled.
Also lets not forget that the lasser glass appears in absentia, so i like to think flanagans films take place in the same universe.
Indeed. Though I wonder how Hush would play into that notion.
The main character is the same women who plays marisol, but thats flimsy at best.
Eh, it'll do.
I felt absentia would have been better with just a bit more mythos. Here in oculus there are so many details (however vague) that we can use to construct a wonderful backstory and expanded universe. I think the monster in absentia was much more interesting in concept than the lasser glass but they didn’t really do anything with it. I know they were going for an “is it or isn’t it” theme but that only works if the movie is appealing to our fear of insanity. If you’re going to have a monster commit to the monster
wait. the anchor does that? it would still smash the shit out of the mirror.
Oh Danny Boi you seem to be one of the only people who remarked about this flaw in the movie.
"Which I present to you... without context. You're welcome." That part killed me 😂😂💀💀
Do you know what's that is from?
@@lesleedean3350 A British comedy series called A Touch of Cloth. She's in series 3 i think?
@@happycamper4315 thank you so much
17:02 I think the movie is about schizophrenia and how perceptions are affected; in the end the guy screams it was the mirror like he's manic obsessive.
well the "its all in his head" idea is not what the filmmaker intended also "manic obsessives" or bi-polar disorder is not like that at all.
I still believe that this ambiguity (Tim's schizophrenic obsessions vs mirror's mind-control manipulation) is a basic concept of the whole movie. Maybe there's more to read between the movie's lines (or maybe I'm reading too much into it)...
Oculus is a Lovecraftian story, and a good one?
Really? 😂😂😂
I must be in the minority here. A haunted mirror just doesn’t seem very Lovecraftian to me.
Well I did explain why I believe it is in the video, but I'm not sure why you're "in the minority" as far as i can tell I'm one person and your one person, we disagree yeah but I'm not sure why my opinion has more inherent value then yours ?
Deusdaecon Reviews It’s just the impression the movie left me with, that’s all. Maybe it’ll click with me after a second viewing.
What bothered me most about this movie is that, no matter what the kids may have said about the mirror, it's pretty obvious that the father had tortured the mother to death, so how the heck did Tim get committed for self defense? Even though the cops took him away, I think he must have been committed because he had trouble adjusting, and so he was dismissed (because his insurance refused to keep paying) for some other reason. Nothing else really makes any sense at all.
As to Tim and Kaylee disagreeing on the memories, I always just assumed that was because of the therapist brainwashing him to disbelief himself.
Oh, and for the record, I hope you're doing well, but I miss your new content.
20:25 That is kind of funny to think about though. What if the picture frame had hit the mirror and destroyed it? How ironically hilarious that would be! This eldritch instrument of darkness sowing the seeds of discord only to have karma come back to bite it in the ass. XD
I can't be the only one who finds that concept funny.
This was a good horror film for sure!
I love how this film is like a love-letter to Lovecraft's works, while being somewhat original.
Glad I found your channel. You should review Ernest Scared Stupid 👍🏻
I wonder how Sam and Dean Winchester handle the mirror?
Maybe it'll be in the new season coming out lol
i think the mirror ate the dog in the present but made them think that they let it go
I doubt that cause it would've been captured on camera that the dog disappeared and they opened an empty cage thinking there was a dog.
Brilliant video - just subscribed! I totally agree with the Lovecraftian interpretation, which is why I think the film works so well. Thanks SO much for addressing the 'why don't they just smash it?' comments. The whole point (I thought) was that the mirror was in control all along, defending itself through subtle manipulation. Also, I really liked your theory on whether the fiance was dead or alive - it's never confirmed, but I think you've got it right.
(Confession time - I did make one throwaway Weeping Angels gag in my own Oculus video. I just couldn't resist. Sorry Karen!)
references to dr who is fine, its more about the typecasting of actors was my issue, I saw your video by the way, great stuff, and the future predictions thing I never considered, Very interesting.
Love this review! If you ever do another Lovecraft month, I suggest A Cure For Wellness!
I met Karen Gillian briefly at a convention and she really does seem like a sweetie. I'm so glad her career is doing so well nowadays.
Kaleighs fatal flaw was describing her elaborate plan IN FRONT OF THE SENTIENT FUCKING MIRROR
I always though it was deliberate taunting, we’ve already established how Kayleigh underestimated it, so its just an extension of that for me
damnit, i can't use you as background for games, cause i actually want to hear what you have to say.
I've lost count how many times I've seen this review. Love this movie, Karen Gillan and Mike Flanagan.
Hey, @Deus, what with how far Mike Flanagan has come in terms of horror, like Oculus, The Haunting series, and Doctor Sleep, would you ever see/review Before I Wake by Mike Flanagan? Not a lot of people like it, but I like the premise of a kid who can manifest his dreams into reality, as well as his nightmares, particularly one of a creature he calls "The Canker Man."
I don't understand why so many women are so insecure about scars, and stretch marks. I mean, maybe I'm just weird or something, but it never makes a woman any less physically attractive having them. Be proud of your scars and stripes ladies.
this film completely loses me in the last act. the whole concept of the girl blocking that anchor is so unrealistic that it broke the film for me. she has about 40 lbs worth of weights attached to that anchor which drops a good distance. even if she took the sharp end of the anchor, that amount of raw force would knock over an NFL player through the sheetrock and the mirror.
as far as the Cthulhu mythos, i consider the mirror to be an eye of nyarlathotep who was a manipulator and deceiver over-ruling humans.
Karen is a talented actress and it shows in this movie. Frankly, she looks a lot younger than her age which befits her in some of the movies she's starred into.
I think you should take a look at a movie called "Haunter" from also 2013.
(4:12) Yes. I can definitely agree. I fuckin' love that scene too. That scared me more than a loud, BOOOMMMM, when those glowing eyes popped up. That's how it's done.
A very intelligent review that brings a new perspective to this well executed horror movie!
It wasn't a bad movie, but it was so predictable!
on 3:05 were is that from?
I do think that Mirror is going to bight the big one eventually- it's just a question of how many people it can drag down beforehand.
With people already figuring out the rules of the thing, it's only a matter of time before someone comes along who just wants it dead and has the wits to make it so.
It may think it was being clever by tossing the brother back out into the world, but it's only a matter of time until it's destroyed by its own hubris.
Very glad they followed the Chekhovs anchor rule in this film.
This movie reminds me of 1408.
you’re not wrong there
completely agree about Karen Gillan only referred to as "Amy Pond". It's insulting to a talented actress who has a long and successful career ahead of her (I also have problems with CinemaSins as well, but that's beside the point)
+Trevor Long haven't seen the channel is it really that bad?
If you're going to watch CinemaSins, just don't go in expecting deeply thought-out reviews. The format is literally pointing everything wrong out in a movie. I enjoy them for the most part, though I think they've recently become too lengthy and rely too much on running gags.
I suggest trying a few of their earlier, shorter videos. They relied more on flawed logic and actual bloopers back then.
It's mehh, the guy sounds really dead inside.
I think the mirror traps the souls of it's victims
Did you ever did A review of the necronomicon movie with Jefferson combs starring as Hp lovecraft?
I'd recommend "Grave Encounters", as the final reveal could make it considered a Lovecraftian-level horror movie.
Hey tell me what you think about some of the SCP Foundation creatures
i think the thing Tim see at the beginning is the chain that their dad used to chain their mom to the wall
I always thought this was inspired by Stephen King's short story The Reaper's Image
there's many MANY haunted mirror stories, mirrors have always been slightly creepy to people so its only natural, but seeing the grim reaper in a mirror and what goes on in this film is quite different, in my opinion.
The Mirror of Dorian Gray
2 things: the ending doesn’t work because that much weight on the anchor would have smashed through her, the mirror and the wall. Second, I view the mirror as the eye of Nyaralthotep since the mirror feeds on and causes insanity just like the great old one himself
can't wait till the next H.P Lovercraft month
Thank you very much for this. I've actually intentionally avoided watching Oculus because of a misconception I had, having seen Mirrors and Mirrors 2, so I thought it was just another sequel to Mirrors. Good to see I was wrong, and I'm gonna watch it right now ^^
EDIT: Just finished watching and I was not let down. Very enjoyable and it even made me jump a couple times, which is hard to do to me since I grew up on horror.
Glad you enjoyed the film, Always happy when I can turn people on to films I think deserve more attention
Agreement. Might be my favorite as well
its an SCP Object :O call the agents!
24:37 Also, it's cool that she doesn't cast a shadow on the wall, next to the dad's shadow.
I definitely see the shadow
@@AlfonsoSRT Uh oh. That means you're possessed now. Sorry, dude.
Great review. I just saw this movie yesterday and searched out some discussions on it, and your is my favorite.
I agree, by the way, that it’s more interesting if Kaylie’s husband wasn’t there and isn’t dead. Because it means the mirror can do even more “world-building,” influencing cameras and showing both people the same visions.
anyone know where that scene with no context is from? asking for a friend.
A comedy show called A Touch of Cloth, specifically series three
This is my favorite horror film of recent years for sure. Nothing has genuinely creeped me out and freaked me out so badly since. Thank you for such a fabulous review! 🌹
This review actually made me appreciate the movie more. There were a lot of things I didn't understand about it. Flanagan has also directed one of my faves "Gerald's Game" and "Hush", starring his spouse, Kate Siegel, who also is in Netflix's "The Haunting of Hill House", which is an excellent series.
Don't forget Kate siegel is also in this film as marisol
seriously I don't know what movie scares the shit out of me more, simply because this movie implies your basically fighting a being who can keep you eternally locked in a dream, its like when your having a nightmare that you wake up from only to find out your in another nightmare, only to wake up and find yourself in another nightmare, only to wake up and find yourself in another nightmare etc.... you can't even be sure if you've left the house even if you give up on trying to destroy the thing and just want to run, the moment your eyes lock contact with it, you might as well be a fly caught in a spiders web. That is what horrifies me, you can't even fight it, you can never know truly if your awake......or asleep.....
Just discovered HP month and I have one thing to say.... I FU***NG LOVE IT!
excellent I'm glad you enjoy it, I've done 3 so far.
At around 7:21 when it shows rhe chain on the bedroom wall & you say that it's hard to know what that was, it was the anchoring point and chain used to restrain their mom in the past.
yes i know this was me speaking badly, i meant it’s hard to know what that was “from the audience perspective at this time in the movie” i didn’t convey my thought correctly
@@deusdeaconReviews ah. Thank you. That makes sense. It seemed odd.
Also, thank you as always for being so responsive, even on old videos. And thank you for your videos. I have been watching a lot of them lately, and beyond being very interesting, they have also opened my eyes quite a bit to videos or techniques I was not aware of.
Hey dude, just discovered your channel and I'm going through all your reviews pretty rapidly! Any chance you could review The Woman in Black with Daniel Radcliffe? It's one of my faves.
Unfortunately I can only take requests through my patreon page.

@@deusdeaconReviews oh sure thing, sorry man. I think you might like it though, if you haven't seen it
It’s based off a lovecraft movie. Based off the way he’s set up his universe anything is possible.
I like the Gundam collection
Hey Deek!
Thank you for your thorough review of one of my favourite horror films!
I was wondering if you've seen The Blackcoat's Daughter and what you think about it. For a long time Oculus was my favourite movie of the 2010's until i watched TBCD
........................ Am I the only one watching/listening to this while in the comment section, scrolling back up to the video every so often? ^^;; *Freaked out yet interested* UPDATE: Though to contradict my previous comment, I WON'T be watching the movie; I have ENOUGH issues with paranoia and panic, not sure if it's official or NOT, never been to a doctor to see; as it IS without bringing MIRROR who messes with your HEAD into things. O.o NOPE, I'm good ....... the review was good, though. :)
Every year i have a Lovecraft movie binge and your reviews are always included. Also....imagine occulus with a Jeffrey Combs cameo 😂
This film suffers from one insanely big flaw that actually ruins the ending for me. a 40 lb boat anchor with a 10 lb dumbell handle welded on and at least 60 lbs of weight on it free falling would end up with 110 lbs falling with enough force to send her straight through the mirror, drywall, studs and exterior brick. in short, the mirror could not survive that incident. However........
It serves as an amazing eye of the Crawling Chaos, the Blind, Voiceless, Mindless, Gargoyle whose soul is Nyarlethotep!
the powercable lady was nasty
Naaaaw, don't say that, I'm sure she's a loverly person to be around,
Wellto me this film was boring the horror was blame i rather watch other hp love craft movie like dagon or in the mouth of madness then this just boring i personally hate ghost movie fuck this crape
I think the fact Kaylie wants to do that experiment is the mirror's initial influencing of her to stop her from growing up and wanting to DESTROY it instead. Whereas the Brother has been through god-knows what kinds of therapies and medical treatments, so he might be more stable and, well, never been interested in the mirror. This also gives hints that Kaylie is clearly weakminded where as Tim, her brother, has been through tons of therapy and whatnot and has hardened up and whatnot, what with their mis-remembering of memories and such.
Kaylie is affected initially at childhood. Also, the fact they merely let that anchor be hanging like that without any protective measures to stop them from being in the way.... like, say, bolted-in-place plexiglass walls that keeps the area the anchor axe thingy can swing and the mirror itself - for with perhaps a tremor sensor set up so even if they were influenced to try and get inside, they'd get a similar shock to the system as with the timer alarms and such.
I even think it has a forget-me-now effect in people that's only be minor-exposed to it. Like those cops, anyone that might come and pick up the mirror post-ending for whatever reason, etc.
Nnnngh, I'm wondering who would be the type to create the mirror, Y'golonac or Nyralathotep...Grr, it's fucked up enough that I think both might have had a hand in it.
I couldn’t care less about Doctor Who. I just remember seeing this movie and asking “Who is THAT??”
If mirrors weren't common by Lovecraft's time, he absolutely would have written about the evils of the silver looking-glass
It's also interesting to consider, can the mirror just not effect the kids, thus why the mother of 1 of the victims killed her, and it seemed like they nearly went the same way, or does it just view them as weak so something it can play around with for it's own enjoyment? It seems to potentially effect them a bit with the voice in the phone, as it's not really been shown capable of doing standard ghost things, so that would imply it was doing some mind games, but maybe that is all it can manage for them.
Kind of on the fence about the boyfriend. In the call when he says "thanks for the chat" kind of seems it was the mirror talking. Also, it was then able to manifest as him. But you're right, we only see one body being taken out. So dno
Yes, I like going back to some of your earlier stuff....It's Karen Gillian, what is there not to like about this movie.
The mirror didn’t step up its game because Marie got close to hitting it. Marie most likely threw the picture at the mirror but the mirror made her miss.
Where you at bruh! You haven't post any commentary in awhile
This movie was awesome and a little Doctor Who adds to anything
I have a theory about the time shenanigans in this movie. I think the mirror was able to effect both timelines because it was in the same house (even in the same spot in the house) during these events. If they had done this in a rented apartment somewhere, there would be no connection to the past with the kids. But if the entity is timeless (a true eldrich being), then it's possible it being in the same spot in the same house allowed it to connect the timelines in some way. That's why there is so much crossover between the two (at the end when the past and present are clearly effecting and interacting with eachother). Just a theory. But the only one that makes sense to me.
That movie EFFED UP my mind -- profoundly!
What if the mirror is a window into Cthulhus conciusness
I would hope not, because although called "the Cthulhu mythos" everything doesn't have to revolve around Cthulhu specifically
@@deusdeaconReviews I know it was just a idea. Since the mirror has no origin it could be a old one that's not been discovered yet well until now
Here's a thought what if the mirror was using them all the time which makes sense why it let them live. If it can prevent you from doing a simple action such as breaking it then it may as well been manipulating the sister into trying this whole endeavor to futility. Because let's face it messing with an item that can literaly control your actions is a bad idea especialy if the longer you look at it the more it affects you. What i would do is cover the mirror and call a couple of workers to destroy it while it is covered. If the mirror could get away from that then it would be impossible to destroy it.
Or have a couple of people take the mirror to a specific location that is lined with explosives but they don't know wait until they leave and blow that thing to hell
Ty Clapp
Yep, there are countless ways of dealing with it, though we can assume the mirror was using them the entire time i mean come on what would the cameras record two people who had traumatic experiences acting crazy especialy after one of them was released from the nut house. It was an excersize in stupidity, at least put the miror in a big brother house it would turn some heads and nobody would be able to blame you unless they admit the mirror was evil.
hey ik a movie u could watch id go to patreon but I got acc its called piranaconda and yes its what it sound like (it is also one of those so shit its fun movies
I think it's good that some directors are going with the what you don't see/what you can't understand horror.
Where you talk about the creepy image at 21:58 is it just me or that is what the mirror would see after the anchor hits her neck.
HOLY SHIT AS SOON AS THE WOMAN SHOWED UP AT LIKE 4 MINUTES IN IN THAT SCENE IT FIRST MAKES ITSELF HEARD SOMETHING SLAMMED IN MY ATTIC
It pisses me off how you only have 22k...
I absolutely love this movie! Its up there among the top 3 for me!
This film is fucking scary, the last one to truly scare me being The Exorcist, so hats off to the makers of this film
after seeing this review I just was thinking that the mirror is not really a mirror but some thing else all together remember how in lovecraft that the old ones where things that man kind can not make since of that there true forms is beyond are under standing what if the mirror is one of them and that all we see is a mirror and not what it really is or even more so that it is a part of them like one of there eyes made into a living thing
These blurry timelines confused me.
The dream at the start of the movie with Tim shooting kaylie is supposed to signify that Tim has taken responsibility for pulling the trigger on his father and no longer blames the mirror, it also foreshadows the end of the movie when Tim does actually kill Kaylie, surprised you didn't pick on that
+o0HAGGL0o I understood thats what they said it signified, It was more about the way it was framed and the foreshadowing was in the script but it was removed due to time constraints cause it didn't really add anything.
What's the name of the intro song🤯😊👌?
