This movie is a damn masterpiece. It’s so freaky and well made. Toni Collette was robbed at the oscars. Her performance in this is nothing short of phenomenal. Alex Wolff also knocked it out of the park.
Paimon was originally meant to posses Annie's dad or brother, but both men killed themselves before he could do so. Presumably, they both realised what Annie's mom was trying to do, but were written off as mentally ill. The cult were stuck with what to do, so Annie's mom bullied her into having children. Annie on some level knows any children she has will be doomed (hence why she tried to have a miscarriage and tried to kill them when sleepwalking) and so kept Peter away but caved to letting Charlie know her grandma. As a result, Charlie was possessed as a baby by Paimon. TL;DR Charlie is Paimon. But Paimon doesn't want to be a girl, so the witches created this convoluted plan to put Paimon in Peter, which succeeds at the end. The tragedy with Annie is: 1. She genuinely loves her kids but wasn't raised in a loving home and struggles to be a good parent. Her violent behavior (trying to kill her kids) was her trying to 'save them' quite sincerely. 2. She said at the start that she 'is blamed'... and she is, but she was just like a doll in a doll house controlled by higher forces. Also At the dinner scene, Annie sees Peter sneering all the time because it’s Paimon. Just like when Peter has a regular face in class but his reflection is snarky/sneering.
I personally don't think that Annie's dad was supposed to be a target for possession, i think it kinda needs to be a sacrifice of your kid or you know grandkid... in the bloodline... I think the dad just couldn't take what was going on. But I don't have any evidence for that, I just feel like if you could put Paimon in your husband you can just remarry try again... like I just think a husband is not necessarily "enough of a sacrifice". But I also don't think she just married him as a sperm donor so to speak... or she would have already put Paimon into Annie's brother at a very young age, with less resistance... like with Charlie. So I think the whole idea of summoning Paimon only emerged when Annie's brother was already born and a bit older. (This is all just me theorising though, with no evidence at all.) I agree with the rest.
they cut 80% of the gore FX for Charlie's death as they felt it was too gratuitous. and the foley work was more of a wet squish initially, which made it sound like her head was obliterated but they replaced it with a blunt thud as her head needs to be intact when they find it on the road later, sans the jaw which got smashed obviously.
the shot of Annie's face going slack after Paimon enters her was done in 1 take. she nailed it first go and had little input from Ari on what being possessed is supposed to look like and that's her take on it, her face going limp. it was the last thing they ever filmed too! they saved that whole fire stunt for the final day. and I think the chat at Joan's house over tea, that was the first scene they ever did. so this movie wasn't shot chronologically. would have been difficult for Toni emotionally, to act out Annie's journey in a jumbled order.
Been wanting this reaction on your channel for a while and y’all delivered!! So fun to watch lmao. I also just realized the facial expression in Peter’s reflection in the glass when he’s in school…that’s what his face has looked like to everyone else! That’s why Annie said he’s been sneering and smug at her since Charlie’s death, which also makes her pop-off even more understandable bc that’s the face of a psychopath 😭 and her saying “I was trying to save you” in her dream with the paint thinner was bc she knew her mom was planning to help that demon possess any son Annie had, and she wanted to protect him from that fate!
on the fridge in the beginning there's a pic of Ellen feeding Charlie a bottle with blackened milk. it has dittany of Crete in it, the same herb Annie picks out of her tea, and it's in a labelled bottle in the box when Annie discovers the pics of Joan. it primes you for possession.
47:38 Paimon can only possess the most vulnerable host (most psychologically distressed). Joan used that paint thinner story against Annie and tricked her into thinking she was linked to the book so when Steve is set alight it's her breaking point as the guilt of *almost* doing to it to her family has now happened. her worst nightmare.
this is why the welcome mat was left out, it was deliberate. and the highlighted text in the book. they don't care if Annie finds out about the plot - it's even better. the epiphany primes her up for possession which they need to mutilate her in front of Peter.
46:04 she's gonna let him discover Steve like he let her discover Charlie. even down the "little fingernails" which is why she propped his up as it's one of the first details she noticed about Charlie's body too when recounting it to Joan.
After I watched this the first time I went back and did a deep dive on Paimon. The beheadings and the music at the end in the treehouse and even the residue Annie found in her teacup when she was in Joan's house are explained and makes sense. It even explains the clucking sound Charlie makes. Depending on your POV it has a happy ending. Leigh got everything she wanted and it was a successful possession.
Annie went through total f*cking horror slicing her own head off and doesn't even get the sweet release of death. there's no Heaven for her spirit, she's now demon royalty and probably a princess. at least she's got coin tho 🤣
@@AnonymousSaiyan Leigh's Things and The Attic (when Peter looks up at her) are my favourite. I like the moment of her epiphany in Leigh's Things and how they make it seem like an awakening for Annie, where everything finally makes sense and it's kinda a beautiful moment but it's sickening at the same time. Colin Stetson nails that tone so so well.
Hereditary is one of the best Horror movies in the last 15 years. It combines real world horror we deal every day with the supernatural in a blend that is unmatched. Great reaction guys. Absolutely masterpiece of filmmaking
Ok. Great reaction video. But, you should never answer questions. Let the others find out. For example, when one of the guys asked if the girl's head was gone you answered yes. I know its trivial but you have to let them experience it. P.S. - Movie came out in 2018

While they were both difficult, Annie partly just wanted Charlie to be around her peers as she often secludes herself. Having her brother there in her mind would make that easier, since she doesn’t appear to have any friends.
100% I get why she sent her. But i also think she just wanted an empty house. She rushed them out and didn’t even make sure they had an epi-pen. Fault all around

Honestly I love this exact method of delivery for this movie specifically, I love watching this movie with people who haven't seen it before and sort of curating the experience. Most people don't intend to rewatch it (for any reason, including the obvious trauma lmao) so I make sure that I hint people towards the little details like the mother in the corner 46:27, that's the exact reaction I get.
If it makes you feel better, the miniature artist actually created these pieces specifically for this movie, knowing they were going to be destroyed. So you don't have to feel too bad! Lol
I loved y'all's reaction SO much!! Hereditary is my favorite horror film, and I love when others can appreciate just how great it is. This is the only movie I watched as an adult that I vividly remember following me home from the theater... it just seeps into your bones!😂 The dread Ari Aster was able to create is just a chef's kiss. Thanks for reacting,guys!🙌❤️
Literally same Kathy. When I saw this one in theaters it shook me for a few days. I have a younger sister and something about Peters character resonated with me I really was like…. Damn..
42:12 Joan's directions to Annie: "your whole family, every member needs to be in the house, your son, everyone" that's why the corpse is in the attic otherwise the seance wouldn't have been successful.
Fun fact: it’s hard to see but the audio is dubbed. The line from the original script is “every member needs to be in the room” but for filming they changed “room” to “house” since grandmas corpse is not in the room with them. Therefore it would not add up or make sense. If you look closely and read joans lips you can actually see her mouth the word “room” instead, while the voiceover says “house”. They just never reshot that scene since it’s such a small mishap.
This is the first time I’ve seen your channel. Great FILM to start with!! My first question is for Anthony… hey, Anthony. Did you co-Star in “Tucker & Dale vs Evil”? You could have been the stand in for Dale! That movie is hilarious!!! This was the first film this director did. The imagination of each of the shots were amazing and each shot meant something. I love that long shot at Charlie’s funeral. The camera is even with the casket, Toni Collette is doing an Oscar worthy performance, and as the casket is lowered, the camera stays on the same level as the casket as it is lowering. But then it keeps going down into a grave, giving you the perspective of what YOU would see (if you weren’t dead,) as you are being lowered into your grave. It becomes claustrophobic in the hard, gray, clay of your tomb. Brilliant shot! In one of the first expositions of the script, the husband asks Annie how are her diorama’s coming along. She said, “Oh, I’m working on the hospital (of when she was giving birth,) and then I’m going to work on the preschool (showing the time frame from when Charlie was born until she was possessed by Paimon for safe keeping.) One gaff they can’t get away with is the treehouse. At the beginning of the film, there is enough room in there for Charlie to sleep with a space heater. Later, there’s enough room for Annie to be comfortable in there with two space heaters. At the end, there is enough room for the statue with Charlie’s head on it, headless grandma, headless mom, lots of naked people hailing Paimon, Joanie and Peter. I call it the ever expanding treehouse of horrors. You guys were fun! I’m going to check out what else y’all have reacted to. As someone who used to be in the filming industry, I’ve got some great films on the scary side for ya’ll to check out. Do ya’ll do the pay-per-view thing, so we can pay you X amount of money and it guarantees that y’all will react to it? It’s a great tool and can raise your revenues. It’s just a thought! Thanks!!
@@brosnshows there's a director's cut too, that's like 30 mins longer so u gotta pick!! between that and theatrical. they make u feel differently on the ending apparently.
I had nightmares for months after seeing this. Honestly the scariest part to me is the ending, it's just like okay, what now? You just have a king of hell and his cult on earth now?
I’ve watched all the reactions to hereditary, and you three are the least trusting of Joan from the start 😂 typically people grab hold of Joan like they’re drowning and she’s a life preserver. Also, all reactions to this video need to have about three reactors so you can collectively catch the details, otherwise this movie goes right over individual reactor’s heads
36:38 an entire deleted scene happened the minute before he sat down. he brought a psychiatrist over to assess Annie but she presented herself sanely enough that he just left. it's not even included on the Bluray. but you can read it in the screenplay, which is accurate enough to be a shooting script tbh.
The actress won no award. She wasn't even up for anything. They bypassed her. It's very rare for horror movies to win. Any kind of awards? The exorcist was one of the first in 1973, but people were up for Academy awards, including Linda Blair, who lost the award 2 Tatum o'neil, who was at that time, around 6 for the movie "Paper Moon."
watch Saw X if you want another piano wire moment!! u do need to see Saw I and II prior but yeah. they say III and IV are mandatory for the mid credits cameo in X to hit but if u just turn it off prior, they're safe to skip.
Great reaction. I'd heard of King Paimon somewhere before this. So ended up geeking out a little finding out about him. The lore this film uses is pretty much spot on. The book you see is even one of the few books containing lore of Paimon (12th century). All the symbols used are correct. Even the artwork you see of Paimon is a cope of the original art. Even things like the floating is correct. Paimon is the King of mischief, & if you read the text it says he can bend, or even break, the laws of physics. Floating, easy. Annie passing through the floor to get into the attic, easy. & the conjuring of riches. You could place a block of wood in front of him & he could turn it into anything, let's say gold. Although they just changed the title of the book. But they did change a couple of details for extra horror effect. King Paimon is actually 1 of 9 kings of Hell. So the thing about needing to face in a certain way is incorrect. The other change is the beheadings. His lore contains nothing about that. The reason it was included was the art work you see in the book. He has 3 heads hanging from his belt. So they changed that. But it adds a Lot of extra scare. Otherwise, no lore was changed. Hope that helps you sleep a little more soundly. Hope everyone is having a great week & much love to everyone from here in the UK
36:03 I'm pretty sure that was the only model they made. she got 1 take to do it. the deleted scene was a bit awkward that's why they cut most of it I think.
@andrewmoss3681 hahaha idk. I like the grey knights from the book " The emperors Gift". I know they do some pretty questionable things at times. But Hyperion bladebreaker made me a huge fan. The inquisition are complete tyrants from a lot of stories, and I'm not a huge fan. The only thing I like out of them is the deathwatch. I need to read more books. Do you have any suggestions?
@@brosnshows if you like your Grey Knights hunt out the Grey Knights omnibus, by Ben Counter. If you want something more, every day guard hunt out the Gaunt's Ghosts series, by Dan Abnett. That series is A*. For something a bit more comedy hunt out the Ciaphan Cain books, by Sandy Mitchell. Think 40k meets Blackadder. Sorry, I started collecting in '89 & you asked for a recommendation. We can't help but give several
@@brosnshows or a VERY weird thought. There is a fan art "Movie" of 1 of the 40k books. The entire film is about 2 hours 45. But the twist is that it's an animation to the official reading of large parts of the audiobook. It's called, Helsreach. It's the story of a Marine Chaplain & his revelations of his true purpose. It was such a good piece that Games Workshop hired him to work for them & is a much loved piece of film. If you guys fancied a bit of a random, sci fi change from the norm, I'd HIGHLY recommend watching it. & as dumb as this sounds. If you do you may want a box of tissues for when the tears start. No, that is not a joke
@andrewmoss3681 hell yeah!!! I just got into the series and completely fell in love with the lore. Space marines 2 were a big part of that( if you play we should link up). I wish I would've gotten into it sooner. I will definitely check out your recommendations! Thank you brother, and of course for THE EMPEROR!!!!
@andrewmoss3681 I will definitely check this out as well. You saw the Amazon series coming out in December. They are doing a nice piece on the 40k universe. Same people who did love, death, and robots. Random episodes from popular video games it looks like.
24:12 I get it when people point out that Annie made Charlie go with Peter... but I also understand her perspective, Charlie is socially awkward and a loner, she needed to learn how to socialize. My criticism for Annie is not giving them EpiPens since she's obviously not there to supervise what Charlie is eating... on the other hand my criticism for Peter is, he lied by omission, he said that he wouldn't drink alcohol at the party, which is true, but he omitted the fact that he intended to smoke weed, which is worse than drinking alcohol, especially since he was gonna drive back home after the party... and even if Charlie didn't go to the party with him, it's still irresponsible behavior to drive while high. I know that Peter wanted to have fun at the party, but at that moment he needed to weigh his priorities, he needed to be a responsible older brother, but he failed, the moment he agreed to bring his sister to the party, he should have changed his plans about smoking weed, he should have saved it for another time. I'm not American so my opinion might be controversial to most Americans, but in my country it's normal for parents to ask their older children to babysit or keep an eye on their younger siblings, which means being a responsible older brother/sister. Lastly, I also criticize Charlie for being a 13-year-old who isn't responsible enough to check her own food for allergens, although I also blame her parents for infantilizing her as well... but yeah, a kid with severe food allergies needs to grow up quickly and learn how to be responsible for themselves in some ways, because what if no one else is there to supervise what they eat?... She's not a toddler, by the age of 13 she should have already known what foods to avoid.
Toni was watching Ari (the director) IRL as she cut through her neck instead of the actor for Peter. she was copying his rhythm for sawing back and forth.
Ahhh nobody has told you guys that the Peters friends and classmates were a part of the cult as well, including the girl he would end up trying to talk to at the party 😂
Holy shit 50:48 I’ve watched this movie like 5 times and I just realized now that shadow is Annie’s body floating into the treehouse Jesus fuck me Also wanna highlight the incredible score in this film. By Colin Stetson and so many of the sounds were created with a saxophone. He makes fantastic music and just dropped a new album last week. Top shit, would recommend.
@@brosnshows always have loved the thought behind this movie and how different it is compared to the rest and I’m glad you three noticed that too! Loved the video
I think there's plenty of blame on all sides of the situation. Annie did force Charlie to go to the party against her will, seemingly because she was feeling annoyed with Charlie that day and just wanted her out of the house for a few hours. And Annie didn't check to confirm that they were bringing an EpiPen with to the party - which, as the adult parent of two teens, is absolutely her responsibility to check. She's the one with the fully-developed frontal lobe, so that responsibility falls to her. On the other hand, Peter didn't pay any attention to his sister while at the party, told her to go eat cake without bothering to check if it had nuts in it, and then drove recklessly to the hospital while under the influence, rather than calling an ambulance. And then his trauma-induced shutdown made the whole situation worse, causing Annie to discover what had happened in the WORST possible way.
@@dlweiss he's the one that killed her. Annie is 100% blame free. But also that was the cult that orchestrated that. The only thing that he is absolutely to blame for is his reaction. She had to find her daughter's headless body without warning because he just went to bed. When she finally yelled at him I was feeling everything she was up until that moment
@@dlweiss and the fact that people think sending her to a party is enough to blame her for her death in comparison to driving the car past the poll that decapitated her is insane to me
I wouldn’t place blame on anyone. It was unfortunate circumstances and a horrible accident. But you would have to put culpability on Annie. I never understood why she forced him to take her to a party she didn’t want to go to that I would argue wasn’t age appropriate. Who sends their 12yr old to a party with what I’m guessing are 16-18yr olds? Especially since she suspects her son will either be drinking or getting hi. 🤦🏾♀️

This is the first time I’ve seen your channel. Great FILM to start with!! My first question is for Anthony… hey, Anthony. Did you co-Star in “Tucker & Dale vs Evil”? You could have been the stand in for Dale! That movie is hilarious!!!
This was the first film this director did. The imagination of each of the shots were amazing and each shot meant something. I love that long shot at Charlie’s funeral. The camera is even with the casket, Toni Collette is doing an Oscar worthy performance, and as the casket is lowered, the camera stays on the same level as the casket as it is lowering. But then it keeps going down into a grave, giving you the perspective of what YOU would see (if you weren’t dead,) as you are being lowered into your grave. It becomes claustrophobic in the hard, gray, clay of your tomb. Brilliant shot! In one of the first expositions of the script, the husband asks Annie how are her diorama’s coming along. She said, “Oh, I’m working on the hospital (of when she was giving birth,) and then I’m going to work on the preschool (showing the time frame from when Charlie was born until she was possessed by Paimon for safe keeping.)
One gaff they can’t get away with is the treehouse. At the beginning of the film, there is enough room in there for Charlie to sleep with a space heater. Later, there’s enough room for Annie to be comfortable in there with two space heaters. At the end, there is enough room for the statue with Charlie’s head on it, headless grandma, headless mom, lots of naked people hailing Paimon, Joanie and Peter. I call it the ever expanding treehouse of horrors.
You guys were fun! I’m going to check out what else y’all have reacted to. As someone who used to be in the filming industry, I’ve got some great films on the scary side for ya’ll to check out. Do ya’ll do the pay-per-view thing, so we can pay you X amount of money and it guarantees that y’all will react to it? It’s a great tool and can raise your revenues. It’s just a thought! Thanks!!
I guess the logical follow-up would be director Ari Aster's totally different next film, _Midsommar_ .
We are 100% doin that
@@brosnshows there's a director's cut too, that's like 30 mins longer so u gotta pick!! between that and theatrical. they make u feel differently on the ending apparently.
Watch Midsommar next!
the best description I've read for this crazy shit was:
how can you show a sacrificial lamb story better than from the point of view of the lambs 👹
I had nightmares for months after seeing this. Honestly the scariest part to me is the ending, it's just like okay, what now? You just have a king of hell and his cult on earth now?
I’ve watched all the reactions to hereditary, and you three are the least trusting of Joan from the start 😂 typically people grab hold of Joan like they’re drowning and she’s a life preserver. Also, all reactions to this video need to have about three reactors so you can collectively catch the details, otherwise this movie goes right over individual reactor’s heads
36:38 an entire deleted scene happened the minute before he sat down. he brought a psychiatrist over to assess Annie but she presented herself sanely enough that he just left. it's not even included on the Bluray. but you can read it in the screenplay, which is accurate enough to be a shooting script tbh.
Boys, may I recommend some horror movies? THE ORHANAGE and MAMA. Those are underrated horror movies, and I think they should get more exposure.
On the list thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻
The actress won no award. She wasn't even up for anything. They bypassed her. It's very rare for horror movies to win. Any kind of awards? The exorcist was one of the first in 1973, but people were up for Academy awards, including Linda Blair, who lost the award 2 Tatum o'neil, who was at that time, around 6 for the movie "Paper Moon."
That’s such a damn shame..
watch Saw X if you want another piano wire moment!! u do need to see Saw I and II prior but yeah. they say III and IV are mandatory for the mid credits cameo in X to hit but if u just turn it off prior, they're safe to skip.
Amazing reaction ❤ love you guys 😊
Thanks for bein part of the fam🩶
Great reaction. I'd heard of King Paimon somewhere before this. So ended up geeking out a little finding out about him. The lore this film uses is pretty much spot on.
The book you see is even one of the few books containing lore of Paimon (12th century). All the symbols used are correct. Even the artwork you see of Paimon is a cope of the original art. Even things like the floating is correct. Paimon is the King of mischief, & if you read the text it says he can bend, or even break, the laws of physics. Floating, easy. Annie passing through the floor to get into the attic, easy. & the conjuring of riches. You could place a block of wood in front of him & he could turn it into anything, let's say gold. Although they just changed the title of the book.
But they did change a couple of details for extra horror effect.
King Paimon is actually 1 of 9 kings of Hell. So the thing about needing to face in a certain way is incorrect.
The other change is the beheadings. His lore contains nothing about that. The reason it was included was the art work you see in the book. He has 3 heads hanging from his belt. So they changed that. But it adds a Lot of extra scare. Otherwise, no lore was changed.
Hope that helps you sleep a little more soundly.
Hope everyone is having a great week & much love to everyone from here in the UK
36:03 I'm pretty sure that was the only model they made. she got 1 take to do it. the deleted scene was a bit awkward that's why they cut most of it I think.
I think Joannie's doormat looks like spiders and slices of bread. Not pentagrams lol
I still have vivid nightmares about this movie.... Fucked me up real bad 😅. I've only watched it the one time.
Same girl this was the second and last time I’m ever going to watch it 🤣 but I had to make the boys watch
Same! Had me shook
I’ve watched it several times now but I didn’t watch it again after my first time for a few years. It left me with a eerie feeling for days lol
A 21st Century Horror Masterpiece!!
The dinner scene is so intense!
Hypeeeee
You guys should check out some under appreciated horror gems - saint maude, the dark and the wicked, you are not my mother
Hell yeah on the list now! Thank you!
The wailing vs Hereditary
We did the wailing!
Toni Collette, man
So underrated
I expecting the ‘Evil Dead (2013) reaction this month guys!!!
No doubt thank you for the rec!
18:11 I do the same thing to my friends 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Let’s gooooo 😎
My boy🙏🏻
37:49 the moment I realised u had already seen it 😉😉😉😉
Did I hear a 40k comment there? Calling the Inquisition & Grey Knights? Think new SUPER hips & his Eagle could do the job?
@andrewmoss3681 hahaha idk. I like the grey knights from the book " The emperors Gift". I know they do some pretty questionable things at times. But Hyperion bladebreaker made me a huge fan. The inquisition are complete tyrants from a lot of stories, and I'm not a huge fan. The only thing I like out of them is the deathwatch. I need to read more books. Do you have any suggestions?
@@brosnshows if you like your Grey Knights hunt out the Grey Knights omnibus, by Ben Counter. If you want something more, every day guard hunt out the Gaunt's Ghosts series, by Dan Abnett. That series is A*. For something a bit more comedy hunt out the Ciaphan Cain books, by Sandy Mitchell. Think 40k meets Blackadder. Sorry, I started collecting in '89 & you asked for a recommendation. We can't help but give several
@@brosnshows or a VERY weird thought. There is a fan art "Movie" of 1 of the 40k books. The entire film is about 2 hours 45. But the twist is that it's an animation to the official reading of large parts of the audiobook. It's called, Helsreach. It's the story of a Marine Chaplain & his revelations of his true purpose. It was such a good piece that Games Workshop hired him to work for them & is a much loved piece of film. If you guys fancied a bit of a random, sci fi change from the norm, I'd HIGHLY recommend watching it. & as dumb as this sounds. If you do you may want a box of tissues for when the tears start. No, that is not a joke
@andrewmoss3681 hell yeah!!! I just got into the series and completely fell in love with the lore. Space marines 2 were a big part of that( if you play we should link up). I wish I would've gotten into it sooner. I will definitely check out your recommendations! Thank you brother, and of course for THE EMPEROR!!!!
@andrewmoss3681 I will definitely check this out as well. You saw the Amazon series coming out in December. They are doing a nice piece on the 40k universe. Same people who did love, death, and robots. Random episodes from popular video games it looks like.
24:12 I get it when people point out that Annie made Charlie go with Peter... but I also understand her perspective, Charlie is socially awkward and a loner, she needed to learn how to socialize. My criticism for Annie is not giving them EpiPens since she's obviously not there to supervise what Charlie is eating... on the other hand my criticism for Peter is, he lied by omission, he said that he wouldn't drink alcohol at the party, which is true, but he omitted the fact that he intended to smoke weed, which is worse than drinking alcohol, especially since he was gonna drive back home after the party... and even if Charlie didn't go to the party with him, it's still irresponsible behavior to drive while high. I know that Peter wanted to have fun at the party, but at that moment he needed to weigh his priorities, he needed to be a responsible older brother, but he failed, the moment he agreed to bring his sister to the party, he should have changed his plans about smoking weed, he should have saved it for another time. I'm not American so my opinion might be controversial to most Americans, but in my country it's normal for parents to ask their older children to babysit or keep an eye on their younger siblings, which means being a responsible older brother/sister. Lastly, I also criticize Charlie for being a 13-year-old who isn't responsible enough to check her own food for allergens, although I also blame her parents for infantilizing her as well... but yeah, a kid with severe food allergies needs to grow up quickly and learn how to be responsible for themselves in some ways, because what if no one else is there to supervise what they eat?... She's not a toddler, by the age of 13 she should have already known what foods to avoid.
There's only two reactions to Joan, no in-between: complete trust and complete distrust.
Toni was watching Ari (the director) IRL as she cut through her neck instead of the actor for Peter. she was copying his rhythm for sawing back and forth.
Ahhh nobody has told you guys that the Peters friends and classmates were a part of the cult as well, including the girl he would end up trying to talk to at the party 😂
Holy shit 50:48 I’ve watched this movie like 5 times and I just realized now that shadow is Annie’s body floating into the treehouse Jesus fuck me
Also wanna highlight the incredible score in this film. By Colin Stetson and so many of the sounds were created with a saxophone. He makes fantastic music and just dropped a new album last week. Top shit, would recommend.
I didn’t notice till the comments pointed it out too. Insane.
Did you also notice Paimon’s theme playing while Annie is consoling Charlie? 👹
Not sure what it is about this one that intrigues me so much! Hope yall enjoy :)
What did you think?
@@brosnshows always have loved the thought behind this movie and how different it is compared to the rest and I’m glad you three noticed that too! Loved the video
when it says [clicking noise] does that subtitle (among other ones) not spoil the moment for u?
Definitely one of the more scary movies that have come out in modern times among the pile of crap horror movies
Totally agree. That’s why we need more recommendations for THIS type of horror
Is the VOD going to be up later? I have to start work😢
This will be up forever!! Come back and watch after work 🩶
@@brosnshows hell yeah thanks for the confirmation 😎 looking forward. Meatcanyon recommended this movie on one of his videos 😎
Not piano wire. The necklace with Paimon's sigil.
Na uh! Confined piano wire. You can even hear her rip off a string of piano wire in the scene before
Huh. Didn't catch that.
❤❤❤
🩶
I never understand people who are not on Annie's side
Continue that thought! Would love to hear your perspective
I think there's plenty of blame on all sides of the situation. Annie did force Charlie to go to the party against her will, seemingly because she was feeling annoyed with Charlie that day and just wanted her out of the house for a few hours. And Annie didn't check to confirm that they were bringing an EpiPen with to the party - which, as the adult parent of two teens, is absolutely her responsibility to check. She's the one with the fully-developed frontal lobe, so that responsibility falls to her.
On the other hand, Peter didn't pay any attention to his sister while at the party, told her to go eat cake without bothering to check if it had nuts in it, and then drove recklessly to the hospital while under the influence, rather than calling an ambulance. And then his trauma-induced shutdown made the whole situation worse, causing Annie to discover what had happened in the WORST possible way.
@@dlweiss he's the one that killed her. Annie is 100% blame free. But also that was the cult that orchestrated that. The only thing that he is absolutely to blame for is his reaction. She had to find her daughter's headless body without warning because he just went to bed. When she finally yelled at him I was feeling everything she was up until that moment
@@dlweiss and the fact that people think sending her to a party is enough to blame her for her death in comparison to driving the car past the poll that decapitated her is insane to me
I wouldn’t place blame on anyone. It was unfortunate circumstances and a horrible accident. But you would have to put culpability on Annie. I never understood why she forced him to take her to a party she didn’t want to go to that I would argue wasn’t age appropriate. Who sends their 12yr old to a party with what I’m guessing are 16-18yr olds? Especially since she suspects her son will either be drinking or getting hi. 🤦🏾♀️
