      My sister and I convinced my mom that Jerma killed someone with a meat grinder and became a RUclipsr shortly after. We showed her a few pictures and she kept commenting on he had "dead eyes". She was genuinely disturbed, and believes the story to this day.

      it irritated me how the dinner table isn't perfectly in the middle of the shot, but looking back, the fact that it's lob-sided towards jerma's side made it seemed like there's something off here and really emphasized how distant jerma is to the family.

    Lot of symbolism in this one. Probably some of the most noticeable work would have to be the contrast of a completely clean, white table compared to the near-silhouettes of every one of the Elbertsons. This is representing of the sins each family member has hidden away that only the light of being together at the table reveals. Also symbolic in this would have to be the reunion taking place on Easter. On Easter, Jesus Christ died on the cross for the sins of every man, woman and child so that they may be born again, and because of this Easter is generally known as a time for new beginnings and second chances, both of which the Elbertson family is getting here for the first time in a while, but sadly don’t take advantage of. Something to also consider would have to be the shirts that both Jerma and his brother Danny wear. They parallel the outfits of both Han Solo and Lando Calrissian of the Star Wars Original Trilogy, signifying of the comradery that they have always had, leading up to an eruption where Lando betrays Han and his friends for the empire, similar to but in reverse to when Danny high fives Dylan (whom Jerma hates) right in front of him. It leads the audience into a false sense of security, making them think Jerma will betray Danny to spite Dylan, and then throwing everyone’s expectations to the floor. Also more nods to Star Wars when Uncle Lou refers to the canned soup as “space food.” We need more intelligent work like this from you Jerma!

    this qualifies as a psychological horror experience

    I like how initially it's framed that Jerma is the loser of this family, until more and more cracks begin to show (notably with the father working at a dump and finding his suit there) that really, no one in this room is a winner.

    I’m so glad they never included the scene where Jeremy murdered his entire family

    i'm watching this in 144p and the stark lighting makes jerma look like he has big black empty eye sockets

    I'm not even joking when I say this, if this is staged, it deserves an Oscar. If I saw this at some arthouse movie festival, I would think this is an amazing movie. At about 17:46 I actually started to doubt that this wasn't real.

      I'm pretty sure it is staged. There's an unedited version of this btw

      It is staged, he has said before that he met these people 30 minutes before the stream.

    that "some viewers may find this disturbing" was not wrong
