Honestly Luke is probably, other then Nell, the best and most tortured of the siblings. He tries so hard to forget and beat the ghosts of his pasts only for them to come back and drag him down. And if not the past, its people in his present, his siblings or the girl he met in therapy, that let him down or betray his trust so that he is left alone and frightened. I relate so much to his struggles and weakness.
Yeah! Also young like is soooo cute 🥰🥺
yep. Nell is the only person who's always believed in him and has never broken his trust, which makes her death even sadder
I agree the Twins are the most traumatized and most misunderstood by their siblings because the twins are the ones who saw the most ghosts who were attacked by the ghosts they were the only ones who actually knew what happened that night besides the dad and how Luke deals with his trauma and his family lack of support is the most relatable to me I definitely can relate to his struggles and grief the fact that he lost his twin his other half I think that was the final straw for him I think Nell was the only person holding him in place
He’s the one who betrayed his siblings. Over and over and over again.
@@babygirllynn2264Lack of support? Steve tried to help him out so many times and was betrayed so many times that he wasn’t even surprised or angry to find Luke stealing all of his shit. It takes a hell of a lot of betrayal to get to that point, where you aren’t even upset by the betrayal anymore.
Get over yourself. You have never dealt with an addict like that in your life. You have no idea what it’s like.

This whole show is a masterpiece.
Absolutely agree my favorite episode in the entire series episode 6 I love it for the camera work do you agree?
@@sunsetstore77 spoiler alert
@@annesatradahl5958 I don't think they read replies to comments but I will delete it. Thanks for telling me
It really is
Ikr! My fav is episode 4 cos I love luke and the monologue is just so incredibly well written it’s beautiful and it rlly makes u feel for Luke!
That runny egg eyes monologue is such an underrated part of the show. The writers go through so much emotion for one inconsequential character that has pretty much nothing to contribute to the story directly. And that actor kills it. Gut-wrenchingly brilliant.
All that childhood trauma and no one believing him, so heartbreaking, I felt so bad for Luke. This and the next two episodes are the best in the series...
Yes, the cinematography in episode 6 is just incredible. I still watch it in awe.
From experience: the rehab experience Luke goes through is accurate. You leave and want to come back, they already have your bed filled within the hour.
This show’s way of showing addiction is so well done. This is the episode that truly hooked me on the ghost and family dynamic throughout
As they should.
There are more than enough people in this world that are plagued by some sort of addiction, so if you actively struggle against the help that's offered to you, other (potentially more willing) people should get the opportunity that you refused.
@@arsenelupin9697 I think you’re missing the point that services like rehab are so far and few between. Not only that but they are thousands of dollars, money that many people in this situation do not have. I think Steve ends up paying for the rehab or Luke’s cut of the book something that normal people don’t just have.
As someone who lives where the show is based and has a sibling in the same situation, this is common. People leave to help their friends and find that they are now left with nowhere to go other to shelters/on the street where they are most likely to abuse.
The point of this episode is to empathize, Luke wants to help his friend stay clean, even if it means risking losing his bed. He makes her a makeshift rehab by attempting to get a hotel. Please understand that the lack of addiction centers in United States is horrible. If they were better funded, less expensive/free, and had more locations: addicts and family would not need to wait months for a bed
@@Fabina4190 Sure, but you cannot adjust the system to fit every single individual.
One person might leave because of reasons that aren't related to their addiction, but others might just want another hit.
The amount of money and manpower you'd need, to deal with every single scenario individually, would require a pretty big contribution from taxpayers and I'm definitely not in favor of that.
It's the same with healthcare in general.
Having some sort of public healthcare isn't necessarily a bad thing - even though it's usually incredibly lackluster - but one can't be expected to pay for other people's bad choices, like morbid obesity for example.
@@arsenelupin9697 didn’t think I’d be talking about this on cinema rules channel lol. I agree but at least a public healthcare system could take in people that want to get better. Many of these people are already using some sort of public welfare to get by along with stealing/family money, at least getting more centers could give them more of a place to go.
And yes, people do leave all the time to get high. That’s why you get kicked out of halfway houses and rehabs so quickly. It just sucks for the people who didn’t even use (like Luke in this situation) where if tested is still completely sober but now without room.
Including the family perspective. I'm always amazed to see people have such little compassion for family members of addicts. I guess it's hard to understand. When you've gone through decades of being lied to while trying to help get someone clean and off the streets and your heartbroken EVERY time then you tend not to believe and trust anymore. If you help and they get high then you're enabling and if you don't help and cut them off then you're considered heartless and uncaring.
This episode was especially both terrifying and heartbreaking
I cannot wait to watch your reactions to episode 5. Hands down the best episode of any series Netflix has ever done.
I think episode 6 is the best. With the single shots that go on for like 10-15 minutes at times. You have to be an amazing actor to stay in character for 15 minutes every single one of them and not one break character a single time. That is a skill I doubt many actors have.
I'm with you ep 5 is amazing
Although I loved the episode... My ranking of top 3 would be 6,9 and 5 in that order
@@kingwacky184 I mean, live theater is a thing.
@@tophergerkey True but there is not a camera right in your face during live theater, a camera that you should not look in to. And in live theater I have seen many live theater shows and the acting in there is not top class. They speak in a way that make it not sound very believable and they often look out over the crowd. It is 2 completely different forms of acting.
I love all the kids but Luke & Nell are my favourites. The two of them didn't really stand a chance (of not being affected strongly) after being exposed to that trauma at such a young age. The scene where Luke is walking the street obsessively counting & the bowler hat man glides right up to his back genuinely breaks my heart. The drugs helped him run from his demons for a while but now being clean, his demons are front & centre. The show is just an amazingly intelligent piece of work & has aspects that most people can relate/emotionally connect to. Really glad you guys are covering the show!
It's rare to see so many layers to characters in Horror, but with this it's as much about the family drama as the scary stuff. The two things weave together seamlessly while the mosaic story-style puts all the pieces into place, both in the past and the present. Great reaction, guys. If there's one series I'd love to go back and watch fresh it's this one.
Well, given that the source material is even better, it really is no surprise that this show turned out to be good as well.
You have to actively try to ruin this story, in order to not make it work - like in the 1999 version ^^
I’ve watched it twice through (the first time and once with friends) and I’ve watched several reactions. I haven’t gotten tired of others reactions yet. Definitely one of my favorite series
@@kimberlyjeanne9456 me too. I always look forward to seeing certain episodes and moments play out.
@@arsenelupin9697 how often have we seen classic works completely butchered by directors who miss the point.
@@craigchalloner153 As I said, you'd have to actively try to ruin it.
All those horrible remakes and adaptations aren't a result of failed ambitions, but rather because of a "who cares"-attitude.
It's only about brand/name recognition, since that guarantees a bottom line in terms of profit.
Nobody actually tried to make a good movie with the 1999 version.
I don't often get properly emotional at TV shows, but this episode made me tear up when I watched it. Luke 😢
I’ve been so stressed and tired at work. These videos of you reacting to Hill House really keep me going. Thank you.
I like how Tom is piecing the mysteries together, and starting from this episode forward, five and six are two of the most iconic in television history.
You guys saw the Invisible Man... the actor playing Luke is the same that played Adrian in that, the abusive husband. Oliver Jackson Cohen
Another great episode. Luke is another favorite of mine. He and Nell are tied for my 2nd favorite. Him feeling the coldness and stiffness as if he's withdrawaling but he's actually feeling nell's rigor mortis just gets me every time. I feel so bad for him! And then young luke... That little boy is so adorable!! And grown up luke.... He's so good looking! Him and Theo I had a crush on. And liv too!
Agreed! I always like hearing others perspective because I always learn something new that really makes sense and have a reason to go back to this series. I looked at Luke’s cold and stiffness literally since he was beaten up and robbed of his jacket and shoes. But not necessarily because it’s a twin thing with nell, mike Flanagan is a genius when it comes to storytelling
@@Cheeemmmsss right? The sorry telling is so good... Couldn't agree more!! 🙂🙂
@@Cheeemmmsss I think that's why the episode was titled, "The Twin Thing" though. It was a hint to the audience - it could have been a number of reasons why he felt stiff and cold, but ultimately the repeated rubbing at this neck (the same spot where Nell's snapped) is a dead giveaway. It was absolutely "a twin thing".
Luke was having a withdrawal from his sister.
For the first time in his life he was without her. Really without her.
Luke always breaks my heart. Specially little Luke, i feel so protective of him
This episode has some really good character development. Definitely one of my favourite episodes. It also has more of an in-your-face type haunting. Another great reaction 👍
I love this episode. So many layers of addiction, grief, and facing your fears. I didn’t know Tom was a twin! The clapping duel at the beginning was priceless. 🤣
I also saw the bowling hat man as a metaphor for Luke's addiction.
It's also the house trying to get through to him.
With Nell dead there it has a deeper connection to him than ever before.
The ghosts are nothing but a symptom of the true monster of this series - the house itself.
It's a shame they left it such a mystery as to how it became that way.
You two are honing in on the themes of this show so well. Yes, Luke finally confronts his fear/demons when he turns around and Olivia has headlights for eyes. The dog barking at him is also a reflection of the house drawing him back. And again this show points out the true life horror of addiction/recovery and of turning our backs on our returning veterans.
Carry On!
Steve didn't turn his back on Luke though. Steve invited Luke back into his life and home. Programs generally train the recovering addict to not expect to be trusted for long time and that earning your family's trust back takes long term actions. Convincing the family member that you've changed with an intense conversation is a big no-no.
After years of being burned, Steve would be silly to trust two freshly recovering addicts who just came out of rehab. Besides, Steve was being perceptive: she IS slick (like most addicts). Luke set himself up to fail by not following what the program should have taught him about this (the rejection of his claims that both of them were trustworthy was used as an excuse to relapse), which is why programs try to dissuade recovering addicts from expecting trust right away.
"...our backs on our returning veterans."
Also I wouldn't call an addict who competed his program a veteran. The war to stay sober isn't over by a long shot at that point. Interesting comment btw.
it's giving me Stephen King's IT with the power of 7 and the head (dead) lights.
@@mikedimples I didn't mean Luke as the returning veteran, I was talking about the blind vet. It always struck me that he ended up an addict was due to a lack of support he received when he got back from the war. I do understand Steve's attitude - "Luke, you're my brother, but...."
Visually this is probably my favorite episode. Especially everything done with the tall man. ESPECIALLY the scene at 16:06, the way he floats is just so smooth in a very creepy way.
This episode makes me cry everytime I watch it. 😢💕 His performance was brilliant. And the bent neck lady episode makes you feel so many emotions. It leaves you speechless. Your gonna love it guys!
Mike Flanagan is amazing and underrated creator. You should watch 'Oculus' and 'Hush'.
The way I still get jump scares even though I know that there is going to be a jump scare T_T
The next episode is heartbreaking and also illuminating. Ya'll made me rewatch it the past 2 days. I think watching Steve and Shirley come to the reality of their childhood memories is also a great moment. Never cried and was afraid at the same time.
I know, this got me wanting to rewatch the series!
I had to take a break after this episode because it was so sad. Any other breaks I took were from being absolutely terrified 😬 such a good show the way they tie everything together and make you feel for each of these complex characters
I CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT EPISODE...
Most scarythings on this show is how they
describe things not showing like story about dead husband, grandma or blind guy.
this is my favourite episode, even when it breaks my heart. luke is so sweet and sad, I love him, and the actor is amazing too.
Its known as psychometry, its the ability to touch things and see visions.
This show is a masterpiece honestly. It just keeps getting better too! So excited for you guys
9.40 haha i love how you both had surrendered to the fact the tall entity was going to bend down and your fright just left your body for numbness
This is my favorite episode in this series. I felt so sad for Luke
Great reactions once again lads! Episode 5 is my favourite of the season, so looking forward to seeing you checking that out next.
Luke's episode is one of my favourites. Definitely top 3
And given how amazing this show is it says a lot
"You're supposed to help these people." Yes, but if you leave, you forfeit a bed. That's on the addict.
yeah they got to help the people who stayed/want help.
can we talk about how great the music in this show is???
i definatley need the soundtrack.
Also, you guys are now the rabbit hole and there’s no way out. It just gets wilder from here!!!
Such a great show! I'd be interested to know your thoughts on Bly Manor (also created by Mike Flanagan and featuring several of the same actors) and which of the two shows you prefer. ??
The show is brilliant. And yes, there are metaphors, but, as we've seen, there are literal ghosts. Don't focus so much on, is this a metaphor for blank. Just take in what you're seeing.
I actually bought this show on Blu-ray. I have Netflix, I can watch it when I want, but this show deserved my money and this is something I want to keep for life.
Luke became my favorite character the more we saw of him... that episode 4 was also my favorite:)
omggg i can’t wait to see you guys react to the next ep.
Great episode this, next one is gonna be even better :)
How have you commented 3 months ago?
Time traveling commentor?
@@wonderboy13579 Yes.
14:30 we almost witness tom breaking down if it wasn't for Shawn distracting him asking him questions xD
Luke and Steve are my favorites, Luke's actor killed it in this episode , he put so much emotion in his performanse.
I’m one of 7 siblings. The counting thing makes me cry every time
but they included their parents so you'd have to count even higher.
I know you've already watched them by this point in time, but MAN are you guys going to love episode five & six. Can't wait to watch the reaction!
I love the yellow comfort pillow
This whole show is brilliant and I love to hear your take on it.
I love how you analyze it, and how you pay attention to cuts, cinematography, and how characters (even) minor mirror the main characters, how everything is important. 42 minutes of TV are there for a reason and I love that you get that, the text and subtext. (certain fandoms still don't get it and their show's been on for 15 years).
Watching you two get scared is the best.
Luke is my favourites, o feel so bad for him and Oliver Jackson Cohen is a great fucking actor, episode 9 and 4 are my favourites
this episode always makes me cry
What did Shawn ask Tom @ 10:55? I ran it back so many times and still don't know what he said and CC said "diabetes". The guy who played Luke is brilliant.
I think he asked "so can you feel her periods?" Lol
this episode always breaks my heart
For what it's worth, I think the reason Luke doesn't "just explain" his current situation and ask his siblings for help is because - and he repeatedly mentions - "they never believe me." Between his disregarded fears as a child and his repeated failures and betrayals of their trust as an adult, Luke feels like there's no point in trying to explain or ask for help, because it'll fall on deaf ears. :(
You guys really don't know how much I enjoy watching you reacting to Hill House😂👌🏽
Man, I’m loving seeing your reactions! Next episode is my favorite but this whole series is fantastic
Episode 5 please get ready coz my mind is still blown
DEAR GOD I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT EPISODE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn you guys are brilliant-- especially your theories at the beginning of the video. I haven't seen any other reactor pick up on things like that
The ghost that Luke sees with the bowler hat low key gave me The Gentlemen vibes from that ep of Buffy! Creepy 😬
I cannot wait for episode 5&6. This show is way more than a "scary" show. I still can't watch the 5th and the last couple of episodes and not sob. And the way the 6th episode is shot is just astounding.
Each episode just builds and draws you deeper and deeper in. 😉 if you know you know.
I’m honestly so glad you guys shared another hill house review, your reactions are so real and makes me feel like I’m watching it again for the first time
Such an amazing show.
My Favorite TV Show Series/Seasons:
1. True Detective, Season 1
2. Haunting of Hill House
3. Chernobyl
You guys would probably love the show Hannibal. It's a good murder and mystery series with some emotional moments and amazing character development. If you're a fan of Hannibal Lecter, you will love this show.
Luke and Nell are my favorite characters, you end up being even more invested in them after their individual episodes but honestly, all the characters/actors breathe so much life into this story
It's a terrific episode (well, most of them are), but the next episode is going to blow your lovely adorable minds. It haunted me for days.
I am so excited for you to see the ending.
this is based my favourite horror story. keep watch behind the characters. i know sean saw a ghost behind theo once. lots of that happens and the statues move as well, they change position
Really loving these reactions - excited for you to see episode six, some of the best technical filmmaking I've seen on TV in a long time
Can't wait for next episode The bent neck lady
The next episode is so so good.
Once you guys are done, if you use Reddit, there is a user u/count_to_seven who is tied to the show and has posted backstories for the main ghosts, even the dogs are explained.
The Disney+ dig had me 🤣😂🤣😂
''this was the most emotional episode''
oh sweet summer chile
these make my day
I'm loving the new logo intro guys!! Also thank you for watching these films and programmes. there is now way I'd be able to watch something like this as a full episode on my own without having nightmares so I'm glad I get to experience it vicariously through you boys!
To me the man with the hat is the scariest ghost of them all, maybe because I have had similar problems myself
its pretty wild how well the actor who plays Luke suppresses his thick Scottish accent
great series, great review series. Highlight is your reactions! awesome
Looking forward to your enjoyment of the exposition. Nappies at the ready ;)
these videos are the only thing i have to look forward to atm thank you guys so much fr
I’m so happy you’re doing this.
guys you are in for a treat In the next episode
Really love your discussions and commentaries! I can't wait for y'all to finish this series! XD
I actually watched these on patreon, but I do still enjoy re-watching. 😆 Luke is my favorite as well. His acting is so well done. 👏 Everyone is amazing in fact.
4:33 lol, you’re still looking in the background…but did you notice the ghost in the background of that very scene? (Actually, there might have been two.)
But one is the long blonde hair girl ghost…and you can see her at 4:40 on the right.
She’s one of the creepiest ghosts. Especially in the cellar…with the mold. She pops up A LOT down there.
Next episode is perfect and the ep after that is really a masterpiece. I cried a lot after watching
So excited for your guys’ reactions to the next 2 episodes!
The next episode is insane. You'll love it.
Oh boy. You guys aren't even READY for next episode...
i’m always excited about your reactions to this now
I really liked the Luke character (and good looking too!) I thought Steven and Luke doing American accents was really well done.
get ready for next episode....it's a big one.
The man in the bowler hat will have his own story - just listen for it...
I'm not big into watching ppl watch stuff but Haunting of Hill House is probably one of my most favorite shows on Netflix. I can watch it multiple times. And it has been really fun to watch y'all S T R E S S out. Thanks for that! Will you be doing Bly Manor after?
The next couple episodes are the best! Enjoy guys! I'll be watching with ya. This was such a great season
Can't wait for you guys to get to the next episode. Episode 5 is THE BEST.
