The secret sauce to good horror is characters you care about
That is who do the old movies good
Not really. In a lot of great horror you are rooting for the villain.
Are you really caring about the characters in The Thing? Or are you enjoying the atmosphere, tension and suspense or the incredible transformation set pieces more.
Do you really feel for the gecko brothers? Or are you enjoying the spectacle and coolness of the antics in the Titty twister?
Sure, sympathetic characters are important sometimed but it's not top of any horror fans list of what they love about the genre.
Yes is better the tension but with people You care about is more impact the dead of the character like also in black christmas they are characters that You caresnd don't want yo die.is better the tension I now but with people You care is a plus that mame the movie better
@Chase Miller I disagree, homeboy, I disagree. John Carpenter and Rob Bottin is what make The Thing great. Kurt Russell is a distant third. Also the decisions the characters make are really plot developments more than character developments. But you are right I should have used the example of slashers but all my favourite ones do have some great characters.
It depends on what type. I feel an explotation horror film would suffer from having likeable characters.
Does it sound like we are listening through a phone, as a reference to the killer using a phone, does that mean we are the Sorority girls and Scaredy Matt is the killer(/killers?) 😱
I'm just glad ya mentioned this - I was fuckin about listening to spotify and was wondering if I'd fucked up firefox somehow.
I was wondering why youtube was playing through my monitor speakers, but it wasn't. Spoooooky!
@@Kerbtree I did exactly the same thing.
Yeah, something weird happened with the sound. Can still hear that sweet sweet content though, and I’d rather hear that than a dissertation about whatever audio tech is going on
I think his mic is under his scarf and it it is effecting the sound
At least his skull is finally free of the tyranny of Eyeballs.
omg yes
Lord Oculon sees all
Have you considered starting a fire to stay warm?
The ending of Black Christmas (2019) puts this comment in a whole new light 🤣
Between the sound quality and the way each cut seems to start a little too late, this one might be worth a reupload. It's a really good vid too
Nah, sometimes things are a lil bad and thats okay.
I was going to say, what happened to the mic
Yeah, good vid, bad audio.
@@sholem_bond
It’s under his scarf, which is a big brain moment.
I would agree, if not for the background music. Now it just feels like Lofi Mil-Dread.
I thought the audio was a bit at first but when it just kept going I grew increasingly unsure.
The radio sound is clearly a filter, which makes it harder to tell if the poor cutting is intentional. If it is, then our confusion is clearly intentional as well.
it's the hypothermia
RIP Sweaty Matt
You were too good for this world.

fiff
Eff
The sound quality made me think you were doing a "phoning it in" joke
I think he put his mic on under the scarf
@@DarkExcalibur42 not just the sound of the mic though, they sound cuts out all of the time. Something obviously went wrong with the processing, I hope he can salvage it for a re-upload.
@@Adrian_of_Arcane_Lore the music sounds just fine though
Ngl I thought I was losing my mind
Next video: hey scaredy-cats, it’s me, skelley matt
“Subtlety” never works. “Subtlety” is how you get people claiming bioshock supports randian economics or meninists stanning Tyler Durden and joker.
Sorry but wasn't Tyler Durden big anticapitalist boi? Or did I miss something in that movie?
@@vladimir8891 Durden's big deal was being a violent macho fascist that was anti- other people with power. Part of that was doing a bunch of anticapitalist stuff, part of that was training a death cult to worship him.
@Blaire Sovereign and wasn’t the entire game just a nonstop showcase of how that led to a lawless hellhole full of murderous mutants and violent factions?
@Blaire Sovereign ...who is casted as the bad guy. Thus, bioshock is anti-libertarian.
Well I guess Mein Kampf also worked so who knows anymore
Not fun fact at all: here in France, a rapist who kinda admitted his crime is now minister of... guess what? Justice. Yeah.
Anger is a euphemism to describe what some of us feel...
ALL of the US politicians are rapists, one of them who was stupid enough to admit it is the president
Yeah, and Macron is the ultimate consequence of having a liberal France.
I hope the yellow vests burn the country to ashes and stablish a new Commune de Paris.
France is my mother's land, and I have been many times there, I feel it personal somehow, comrade...
"anger is a euphemism" is goddamn incredible. Can I steal that?
Insinuating that France is a country smh
@Samuel Clayhills Yeah... You're right It's more like one of those doorways to hell
RIP in peace, Scaredy Matt.
A real Christmas tragedy, during what is most definitely Christmas time.
Imagine actually thinking this clusterfuck is good
How do you feel about Bone Tomahawk?
The actress who played Jesse went to high school with me! Big kudos to Brittney for taking her acting further than 90% of our theater department lmao.
Where is the methy JeSsE
Just watching these short scenes of her I'm like "OMG that's me!!!"
And why should I believe you?
@@SavouryGalette i’m not doxxing myself for your benefit :^)
@@TheLetsRead No, seriously, why should I believe you? Because I don't. Like, at all.
Just because a movie is feminist, that doesn't make it good. This movie is really, really not good. I say that as a feminist. Why would anyone watch this pile of shit when they could watch Promising Young Woman, a good feminist movie?
the audio cuts off for the first like half-second of a few cuts.
loved the Shaun cameo
X for JASON
You: tells me about triggers that would ruin my day before getting into the video
Me: enjoying the last day of my week with my family before I go home to the other side of the country, not having to worry about PTSD symptoms
: ) : ) : )
Me and my partner went into this movie mostly without context. It goes amazingly off the rails in a way that sorts of corny and self-aware, I can sort of see why it got badly rated if people didn't get it and didn't revel in the campiness. It seems kind of absurd but after spending a bit of time talking to weird-ass misogynistic goofs on the internet the subject matter of the film begins to seem tragically realistic, even if the satire of the film is incredibly on the nose. Overall I can see why it bombed, but the movie is a good candidate to be a cult classic (no pun intended)
In what universe?
Why are campy movies with absolutely shit writing and directing praised meanwhile other movies that try to do something are critiqued for being too "artsy"
What is this world I live in
@@whatno3145 I wouldn't call this movie "artsy" because that would be an insult to art.
& It would personally offend me if someone else called it that, because I am an artist lol.
@@theendisthebeginningistheend no no, this movie is the "campy" bit I'm talking about.
i like how this video sounds like it was recorded on an old timey radio

We are gathered here today to remember Matt. Who died doing what he loved, committing to a bit that probably wasn’t worth it. But was it worth it? I think I speak for all of us when I say “meh.”
Defend garbage like this? Surely he's missed
a long time ago, about 20 years, I went to a documentary about girls who were raped at their campus, it was usually a few boys that did all of it. There was a girl who was fighting to get some sort of help and she ended up dragging the mattress on which she was raped to every class, to explain how this trauma remained with her and how much it weighed. There were very few people in the theater, the actual girls of the film had come with it and they were so young, they could have been my daughters. It made me cry to listen to them. I honestly don't know if its any better yet but what you described kind of reminded me of that. Now I'll seek this one out.
PLEASE hell comes to frog town, i am begging you
My sister was attacked by a collage guy and because of the fact she told him over text "she likes it rough" they automatically took his side. But the context was he coheresed her to talk about it. So he could justify it later
Christmas DEFEATED
You thought (slime) that the bit would be worth it, but ALAS you forgot to put your mic above your scarf
Just did not like this movie version at all.
But it is has female empowerment so therefore it is a good horror film. Obviously.
That wasn’t my sticking point. Everyone reacted either super heavy handed OR just skipped processing steps as it galloped along. I feel the message was short circuited by a lot of poor film making choices...
@@j.r.cilliangreen4083I Agree 💯%. You have pinpointed the problem with this film perfectly👍👌. I was just summarising Matt's review but with added sarcasm.
@@VasManHorrorLivesMatter 😂👍
Why is the audio so wonky in this video? Other than being so low it feels like it cuts off a lot.
6 months and no one answered your question. I assume the mic is pinned underneath the big, warm scarf. Thus the muffled audio.
Hey Matt, this is a great vid, but your mic is not picking your voice up well with the time appropriate scarves. The audio is really quiet
I'm sensitive to rape and all this movie seems to have going for it is dealing with rape in a dumb hamfisted allegory
Yeah it sounds great
The movie was 💩 and I should know, I watched a lot of bad movies. It's not terrible because of the subject matter, but how terribly it was executed. It's worse than 'Black Xmas'.
I would say please do Hell Comes to Frogtown but I'm fairly certain the copyright owners are very litigious with it.
It's weird you didn't comment on the audio quality within the video itself. Usually you address that kind of thing
Yes! I watched this movie last week and I LOVED it. I liked the demon blood as a metaphor because it felt like a great example for the way that misogyny is ingrained in structures and cultures and is passed down from generation to generation. Like it was literally ingrained in the statue of the founder of the frat by the founder of the frat. I also liked how they showed how even the good guy could be swayed by the power too as a counter to the "not all men" thing bc we saw a bunch of examples of different good guys thru out the movie but that guy was the best bc he kept trying to do right thing, and after he was mind controlled he understood that he may be a liability to their movement but he still tried to his best to make amends and keep fighting with them.
Also sophia takal is SO GOOD at portraying relationships between women. God, just that one moment when Fran puts her diva cup in right in front of Riley was such a sweet moment of intimacy between women that you don't see in most movies.
I'm genuinely surprised that there are people who liked this movie. I found it to be an incredibly shallow horror film with cliche jumps cares, boring characters and some pretty embarrassingly bad plot exposition scattered throughout its runtime. I just thought it was pretty disposable.
@@WoahLookAtThatFreak I'm not because people are stupid.
Things I want: Matt to watch Hausu. Things I need: Matt to watch Hausu.
Didn’t we DO Hausu? Or was that another channel? Hausu is the perfect kind of sincere insanity that I love love love in horror. It’s be great to see Scaredy Matt’s take on it.
AdequateEmily did a Hausu video 2 months ago, but apparently I was only one of about 600 people who watched it. What’s a real shame is that PewDiePie did a video about it, and that shit has 2 million views.
Hypothermia claims another victim :(
From Scaredy Phone Matt to Scaredy Skellington Matt! how spoopy
Hey, is this a satire? This movies sucks. And it like a kids writing and screaming all over the place.
Watch a movie called “Night of the Comet (1984)”
I would like to hear your analysis of it-if you deem it worthy of one
DMK forever!
Constella Espj Sammy and Reggie were the total badasses though. I saw this movie as a kid back when it cam out, but watching it 35 years later, it is awesome how they kick every bodies ass in the movie-with, the exception of the Mall Zombies, but even that is an awesome battle. Throwing shoes at armed people to draw their fire-Yeah, Sammie is my favorite character. I was really bummed out when I thought the Scientist woman had euthanized her.
Quite honestly the original is one of my favorite movies ever but I did think the second one that came out in the 2000s was pretty decent I never saw the new one but I thank you for the recommendation and shame on me are letting some of the things that other people have said about that movie get to me
Stay away from this crap it sucks
See ramboraph4lifes rant to see a REAL person with actual passion for movies
I never watched the original, but wasn't a big fan of this film. I saw a review that said "this film is basically T-shirt Feminism: The Movie, and I think it describes it pretty well. However, I got major respect for a lot of what the film has to say, and that it was specifically made PG-13 for teens to be able to see it in theaters.
@derpy alien I mean they aren't bashing white men. They're bashing college boys who assault women and get away with it. And if you think that's a bad thing please go up to a remote tower and never return.
TERRORVISION!!! YES! It deserves 90+minutes of analysis, however. I'm willing to wait if necessary. :)
Amen - that movie should be savored like a fine milk laced with LSD. Take your time and enjoy the insanity.
Do it!
Plz do Hell comes to Frog town!
I would literally clap my hands together, and bark like a seal to hear anyone try to approach Terrorvision intelligently.
I second terrorvision.
My face literally lit up - glowing like a little boy on Christmas morning - when Matt said “Terrorvision”. Oh please oh please Scaredy Matt let us discuss the insanity that is TERRORVISION
I'd kill for a hell comes to frog town video-only to prove to the people I know and love that I beg to watch it knows it isn't a joke and that it does, in fact, exist.
I think this video and the last one just help to demonstrate that the 2010s was a much better decade for horror than the 2000s.
The 2010s was a low point despite some gems and this movie proves not all movies on the last decade were gems
We are not babies. Unless this is sarcasm. This movie is trash for many reasons. Being a baby for disliking a horror movie is not disliking it when it is badly written and not scary. People who are babies are people who are being stupid.
I always stare off into that one snowflake that follows the contour of the roof haha
If you're cold, they're cold. Bring in your Matts.
PLEASE DO TERRORVISION
IT’S SO BAD YET IT’S SO GOOD
No, it's just bad.
RIP Matt.. I think someone fixing the audio on this would prove a worthy end.
Could you do a Cronenberg movie plz ?
It's a movie where a character coopting another's rape and forcing her to 'deal with it' so she can make a feminist point which would be laughed at in real life.
No, it isn't good. In fact, it's reprehensible because the character I mentioned before (Kris) is championed by the movie as a hero when she's no better than the enemies, maybe even worse.
Kinda sad there wasn’t a hell comes to frogtown video yet lmao 😂 that movies a ride.
I didn't expect the Shaun cameo.
Honestly Black Christmas kinda made me uncomfortable to watch. Like I got what it was going for and I really, REALLY wanted to like that because I really want to see a movie handle those things well, but the more the movie wore on the more it just felt like... Like, I dunno, the script maybe needed a second or third pass? Like, the characters were really what killed it for me.
Like, rape survivor says she does not want to perform in a skimpy outfit with her rapist in the audience. And instead of saying "Hey, that's okay," her friends pressure her into it, a thing that she is so clearly uncomfortable with that she freezes up for a moment. Rape survivor says she wants you to take down the video of that performance for both legal and personal reasons, but her friends argue with her on that, too. And, you know, the person who is most pressuring her rape-survivor friend is the one who we are told is exceedingly rich but also the most activist.
And while I liked the boyfriend character getting turned into an asshole the way he was, having the same thing done to a guy who mere seconds ago was actively participating in a plan to (for the metaphor of the story) was actively trying to stop toxic masculinity. And the act of trying to put an end to toxic masculinity and empower his female friends is what makes him into an evil man?
Like I loved the actors, and I felt like the structure of the movie was fine. I didn't particularly care for the climactic action scene but that's entirely because I'm really into a well-done action scene and if I judge it by the standard of typical action scenes today, it was good. But I think the movie just... Really kinda felt superficial and uninterested in its own subject matter.
Which I entirely blame on the fact that the film went from "Writer-Director is asked to make the movie" to "Released in theaters" in 11 months so that a lot of the stuff that should have been picked up on another couple script passes never got the chance.
Loyalty to the bit, even to sweaty death 1985. RIP mate.
For all the comments about the audio, it lends it a certain DIY public radio charm that I wouldn't mind seeing in future videos. It also doesn't diminish the general quality of your insights and performance as well as the editing. You're doing a bang-up job this Christmas season.
I think the problem with me is that the music is crystal clear
RIP Scardey Matt. Remember, Winter is coming and you'll turn back alive as soon as Canada freezes! Thumpty Thump Thump, Thumpty Thump Thump look at Mattey go! Thumpty Thump Thump, Thumpty Thump Thump, Look at GrumbleTum Go!
oh no who got all these babies in my internet
edit: OMG JESSIE SO PURE
Hey slime daddy, I think a video on the 2015 movie bloodsucking bastards would be a lot of fun. Pls consider
OH NO! THE EYEBALLS GOT HIM!!
Snow muffles sound, it's a fact!
I hope Terrorvision's next.
Happy late birthday, Herr Sweatster!
Looking forward to checking this one out. I heard on NPR Blumhouse gave the director like three weeks to make this movie so it being the slightest bit okay is an amazing feat.
Please review Terrorvision. The most amazing screensaver ever shown in theaters.
I had a week to make a movie oh look one frame is not a complete mess Citizen Kane eat your fucking heart out
I never thought the girls were in any danger. They kicked the shit outta the killers over and over again.
Strong female characters! 💪😂
So if The holidays are over does that mean 2020 can be over too? Can we please just say it’s 2021 now and get this year over with?
Bold choice to replace microphone with tin can and string
Great videos ^^
Do the walrus one pleeeease :D
Hey maybe it was an awkward edit but your definition of toxic masculinity at around 3 minutes in is a bit problematic. Toxic masculinity is not inherently toxic aspects of masculinity, its toxic and harmful traits that are ascribed to masculinity by greater society the difference is subtle but important because one implies a deep level of biological essentialism while the other does not. Men are not inherently grabby assholes who repress their feelings, lash out violently and disrespect women, that is just something we are told, either explicitly or subtextually most of our lives.
I think you might be the one engaging in bioessentialism- not saying that as a diss, sorry it sound kinda rude. But masculinity is a cultural trait distributed among people of all genders, not something essential in men
This is the most cursed audio yet
is the audio weird?
Yeah.
Nick Snrub cool it’s not my laptop then
Maybe his mic is under his scarf?
4:26
Guess we can sorta. Officially declare this part realistic now, too?
I’ll watch it just to see Imogen Poots. For real celebrity crush.
omg please do Terror Vision
Oh thought slime, it's always been Christmas. And it always will be
Interesting take! I'll check it out. Everyone I heard talk about it said it was too "woke" and in your face about it but hell the original Black Christmas was way more woke and socially conscious than the 2006 remake on a lot of levels. Plus I want to see that actress from 28 weeks later in this newer remake. I really liked your other 2 Black Christmas reviews too. Have you every seen "When a Stranger Calls" with Carol Cane 1980? There's another similar classic horror stalker treat for ya! Thanks for doing this!
2006 was based as fuck
No people not liking this movies are not babies just because an actual remake. Definition of a remake is a retelling of original story in an updated manner. Basic quick definition right there Black Christmas 1974 a mentally deranged person kills women in one sorority house only and makes phone calls after every kill. Then black christmas 2019 there's a story plot evolving around sexual assault committed by someone who was possessed by demon blood who then a group men possessed by demon blood goes all around campus killing women. That's not the same story as one mentally deranged person killing women in one sorority house only and making phone calls after every kill. This is why this movie failed this is why the movie gets all of the hate and criticism it gets and it's Justified. Because it's not a remake if you're going to call something a remake it has to have the same exact story as the original. So in order for black christmas 2019 to be a remake it would need to have a story about. A mentally deranged person killing women in one sorority house only and making phone calls after every kill. Then it would be a remake. But it has a story based around a sexual assault committed by someone who is possessed by demon blood then other men possessed by demon blood go all around campus and kill women. So clearly it has a different story and clearly it is not a remake. So people need to stop saying people are babies for calling this stuff out. When they are calling out the facts and criticizing it for the facts and giving it a hate for the facts. I mean 2:57 minutes in and you're completely describing a different movie that has nothing to do with the original black Christmas from 1974. As a person that makes videos you need to know what words mean please look up the definition of a remake and people believe this movie is a remake please look up the definition of a remake. Because nowhere in the story of the original Black Christmas 1974 was there any. Mention of demon blood coming out of a statue and processing men causing them to commit crimes against women. Then cousin said men who was possessed by demon blood to kill women all over campus. This is a whole new separate movie and it should have been called something else because it's not a remake of Black Christmas 1974. Because at 3:09 minutes and you trying to defend this movie as a black Christmas remake officially hurt my brain and killed brain cells.
There’s a Black Xmas 2019? How did I miss this?
You didn't miss anything. Trust me.
@@GrandpaMunster86 haha I love the original
Actually scaredy matt, when it's used as a method of execution, it's "swoten" not "sweated"
The audio is weird
I assume that's because it was so cold even the microphone was wearing several layers.
The next inscrutable time Christmas comes around, may I suggest 2017's "Better Watch Out"? Apologies if this has been suggested a bazillion times already
9 seconds ago? Maybe I should just do an "insert witty comment"
I really liked parts of the movie but as a survivor of sexual assault I found it kind exploitative of that subject, the way it presents survivors was kind of condescending. I guess it kind of feels like a movie about assault survivors but it’s not for them.
Could you describe to some one who hasn't seen the film how it was condescending?
I'd be interested to hear your thoughts in more detail as well, but I understand if you'd rather not.
@@xCorvus7x It frames her trauma in a way that she gets over things by "just being brave" it kind of feels like when a neutotypical person tells a depressed person to just think positively I guess.
@@emthejester yeah I feel that, tho I personally didn't feel like she was over it by the end of the movie, just that she was in fight or die final girl mode. I felt like the relationship between her and Kris was really interesting (how Kris was so focused on fighting back that she would forget about her friends well-being and how Riley bc of the violence she had experienced was much more focused on surviving and protecting her friends but wasn't able to fight like Kris was) but wish they hadn't tied a bow on it with "You're right, I should have been fighting this whole time"
tillyqtillyq it also made me very uncomfortable that kris frequently pushes her boundaries in a way that invalidates her response to her trauma but she’s never framed as a shitty friend for it ?
RIP Thought Nog
I would say 'Christmas Is Cancelled' but I don't want Matt Taibbi to get mad at me.
Great video, once again! You never fail to make me laugh.
The film did not say that these men were wrong. It did say that they were insane. And I appreciate your sympathy and recognition of right. I know many people would like to watch a film and not have this topic in it. Though too what women like to exist and live in the United States without the false God conservative church intervening and everything. The same women would have liked to have gone to school without being raped Or being taught lies. The school indoors their exclusion
PLEASE do Hell Comes to Frogtown !!!
This reminded me of all the bits I liked about this film.
Idk man, having never seen the original, I had to turn this one off after 5 minutes because the dialogue was so cringy. I'll try to give it another shot
Try giving the original a watch.
It's way better.
It could be because Matt is mid-move and can't fix/doesn't have internet to change atm? My timeline is messed up but I think it's about now?
Anyone else just space the fuck out and stare at that one snowflake that falls at the perfect angle to trace along the right side of the cabin roof. Like good video but damn im tired and that shit is satisfying.
Scarf is keeping the lapel mic nice and cozy
Black Christmas 2019 sounds really b a s e d.
It's not lol
Yeah it’s based.It’s based on the idea that men are evil and should be hated.
Sounds really l a m e.
This movie is a failure at being woke and is sexist and racist and just all out horrible. One of the main Characters hates men and constantly says it and it’s only white men making her racist and sexist. How can you like a character who’s personality is being a horrible person. The whole problem is the story being sexist.
Holy shit please do terrorvision
Hi Matt! Pls review The Ice Cream Man
Ohmigod, THIS.
Where did you watch this? I am in Canada and i can't find it on Vod.
