Honestly, someone mentioned something about how if the pool was like a wishing well, they accidentally "wished" for the dad to be healed by throwing coins in the pool, and that's what made the entity demand a sacrifice. They didn't need some backstory from random lady #1. The wishing well thing would've had this flick make more sense, while giving people paranoia about tossing valuables in water.
I've seen the video where that was mentioned and yes, that'd have made for a more fun premise to the whole thing. It's a ubiquitous belief, it's pretty much been harmless for a long time and it's easily adapted into the pool premise. It's just enough to keep you going through one movie and it's a bit fresher than just "let's throw all the ideas together".
Right. If the original mom wished for her son to be healed & their storyline was needed to be included we should’ve seen the sick boy in the pool at least once… the logic man.. 😂
Least curious doctor of all time. “Oh cool, you no longer have the devastating disease, with no known cure. Lol, talk to ya later! I’m late for yoga class.”
Wait, if someone with MS made such a miraculous recovery, wouldn’t the doctor be a bit more suspicious? Or want to investigate so they can get rich publishing the case?
@@KleinesSteinthey would still probably want to investigate anyway given that neurological diseases are generally pretty dam hard to recover from like that
Gotta love plot holes in garbage horror movies lmao. Bonus points for the dad going missing at the end and no police show up to investigate why the family randomly decided to fill their pool in with cement. I’d love to hear that conversation with the police. “My husband sacrificed himself to save our son” “…..you mean he died in the pool and you filled it in without telling anyone?” “It was so our son could survive”
@@urusaiinu publishing can lead to research grants, this of course is contingent on luck and a good publication (prestigious journal and/or interesting case) but a miraculous MS recovery would probably be good enough for that, and probably would have multiple opportunities for follow up research and the funding for that, if not for the sake of knowledge then because some pharma company wants to know what the fuck is going on so they can profit of it
As a NH Realtor we don't need to tell anyone about it being haunted, used to be a drug lab, or murder unless they ask the question. Then, by law, we must tell them what we know. If we lie about it, we can face consequences that may result in our license being suspended, and we won't be able to work again as a Realtor.
@joak9992 2 more tips: if you have a well for your water source, check the water for any chemicals or bacteria, you can get that done easily by a professional. Second tip: Any houses 1978 or older must have paperwork provided for anything related to lead. If they can not provide that, you need to look elsewhere or get a professional to check for lead.
"I swear to God if this ends with Gavin beating you up with a wiffle ball back because he's not afraid of you like that pennywise punk" 9:46 -neard explains Lol that made be laugh hard plus when he says he going drown the demon 😂 you should do more of the villain since it's so funny
many urban legends tend to have a clear-cut procedure or steps to be taken to trigger a summon or ritual. movies these days lack that, I miss the generic 'if you watch this bid tape, you will die' or if you are in the vicinity of someone who died to the curse, you are next, regardless of the time or place. personally, i wanna see more movies based on understanding the supernatural phenomenon and how to avoid it or stop it, rather than winging it.
One funny thing to point out is that it's impossible to suck in more air from the hose when you get too deep in water, something like 1 meter or so I believe. The water pressure at that depth is so strong that your diaphragm isn't strong enough to expand to inhale more air.
@@Byvenic scuba divers use pressurized air to breathe. The pressurized air counteracts the water pressures from diving so your lungs don't stay deflated from water pressure, and you can still breathe. You can also think of it like the air tank as forcefully injecting air into your mouth. If you tried to breathe from a scuba tank outside of water without a regulator (which increases or decreases the air flow depending on the surrounding pressure), you might blow up your lungs
@@varencilator Thanks. I thought it may have something to do with the pressurised tanks. It's interesting that it's only after a metre that you can't breathe in. I suppose it's like having that weight laying on your chest though.
When I saw the trailer, I was expecting the pool to lead to another realm, and the victims have to pool jump to find their way back home. When it got to the part where the dad suddenly healed from a pool that nabbed kids and a cat, I walked out of the theater 🤣 Nobody saw the red flags in the first place with that freaking pool. I already pieced together what was gonna happen around the middle.
As much as I try to give children the benefit of the doubt in horror movies, I can't do it here. That girl should have said fuck the boat and flew out of that pool like a goddamn bird, but now she's playing patticake with Georgie
So watched the movie myself, and liked it for what it was. A cheesy movie about a cursed pool. As for the little girl, I genuinely think it implied once in the water, she was doomed and would not have been able to escape unless someone helped her. And since her own mother arranged her sacrifice, there was no saving her. Even if she got out, her mother would have thrown her back in.
14:00 there are isolated groundwater pockets, so it doesnt necessarily have to be connected to the ground water around it. But then again i hear the other side of the country is lovely this time of year, so im getting the fuck out of there.
Ok I probably would do everything that little girl did. I’ve even fallen asleep on a floaty around midnight apparently by myself (my husband had been with me). Don’t sleep in the water, it’s not good for you
@@krishanubanerjee6955 mmmmm I'd say I half agree, people should be have the common sense to understand what types of things absolutely NEED antibiotics because sometimes doctors themselves can fall into that same trap of being reluctant to prescribe antibiotics Ultimately, people should listen to doctors but also shouldn't be discouraged from going for a 2nd opinion if they feel it's needed
So really nobody's gonna talk about the bloated corpse / ghost popping up to literally SAY "Polo!" during a game of Marco-Polo? During a horror movie that seems to be played more or less straight? Like, it's not Scary Movie, this movie is supposed to BE scary, and that's what they went with? That made it all the way through the scripting, rewriting, line-reading, rehearsal, shooting, editing, and early screening process and not a single person with ANY control over the movie heard one other adult human being say "hey, that's... stupid?" and legitimately consider it?
Good horror movies are a dime in a dozen. I rather like horror games and the problem started there: Idiot characters drive the plot, while you want to scream at their face after seeing ghosts or zombies. And the same now happens in movies, idiocy also drives the plot
Am I a bad person if I wanted the kid to just die at the end ? omfg Id sacrifice him and get a wish out of it or something, because with that sense of survival at that age no way he will make it to 18. Movie logic I got frustrated just as much as Nerd Explains did lol.
They don’t have to tell them about the girl getting sucked down the drain because THEY DONT KNOW all they know is she disappeared if they knew she was sucked down the drain it would defeat the purpose of the movie they would know the pool is haunted…
its probably my spoiled mind... but is hollywood running out of ideas that are fun and scary? what will follow is a entire year of swimming pool movies and cross overs ( tusk and this movie for starters) instead of the most needed creepy pasta movies, or scp related...it should be a decent paycheck for most directors and horrorfans get the tension :)
If the pool really needed sacrifices, why did we need to sacrifice the only other sibling of the terminally-ill? Something as obscure as a squirrel accidentally getting caught underneath the tarp would have sufficed as one, or perhaps I'm missing something!
I think my subtitle genie's drunk on liquor and edibles because Mr Nerd called the lil girl "Rebecca" but I got "Susie" and when he said the kids names, I got "Daughter X" and "Son X" wtf?
Could you please do a “how to beat” video on a movie called “attraction” or it’s second part? It has cool alien water benders and giant space ships capable of deep faking , controlling mass media and framing people for domestic terrorism. And it has a cool revolution and a government corruption scheme.(It also has a cool underwater scene).I am asking for the one hundred and twenty eighth time and will continue asking.
I would have loved it if in this move they whole thing was it if you swim in the pool because it's connected to ground water it has some accent pathagon in it that make people feel like there getting better form any illness but it's all a trick it's and one you swim you start hallucinating and having nightmares until eventually you lose all of your motor functions and drown and all of the demons there seeing are hallucinations and it's actually the pathogen slowing making them feel like they can't escape the water so it's there mind rationalising the lose of there motor functions
Wait... so all I need to do for a cure for anything bothering me is to sacrifice my children? Well then I need to go make some children... and learn how to swim.
Honestly I live in hope of finding a house that people died in so other people don't want to buy it, nothing like a cheap house for basically no downside. As long as its not because its in a super rough area that gets home invasions a lot of course.

I was actually considering going to watch this movie in a theater. Thank the lord I didn't because this film fucking sucks
This may be my favorite channel
Lol, the imagery of the girl dolphin jumping out of the pool, complete with dolphin sounds really gets me.
