That's weird you guys say this, I thought I had dreamt it too. I had a very foggy memory of it. It wasn't until someone mentioned it again that I looked it up
I just recently started to remember watching this movie as a kid and how it felt fever dream-ish I am astonished at how many people share my exact experience with this movie
Dude im literally at work doing my normal work things and a vague super random memory of a weird movie with a monkey popped into my head. Started googling and sure enough it was real. Have no recollection of the story just remember watching it when i was a kid and it being weird as shit. At least i think this is the movie
@@nejifps5814 dude what the hell kids channel was playing this weird ass movie to all these toddlers? Was it like ABC Family or something? Do either of you have any idea what channels you might have been watching back then? I want to find who's responsible and make them watch it.
@@ChadDidNothingWrong no not on a kids channel it was a dvd/vhs that my parents rented or some shit because i remember watching it repeatedly in a short period of time
In a strange way then, it's as if the intended audience was always going to be the adult versions of the children from the 90s. Hell of a long-term return on that one.
I had my grandma take me to see this in theaters when I was 7, I thought it looked like a funny monkey movie. Watched it recently and I really love it, knowing what I know now. It left scars when I was child though haha
As weird as this movie is, I can’t help but find myself actually enjoying it I mean, sure, it has some plot holes (that are now deleted scenes), but the stop-motion animation is very well done and the concept of the story is pretty interesting
This movie melted my mind when I was a kid! I used to catch parts of this movie on tv and it hypnotized me by how strange and nonsensical it was. I've never actually seen the whole thing and I forgot what it was called but now I'm going to see how it holds up.
@@CrazyFanaticMan Yes, this movie def holds up. It has developed a cult like following and honestly, this movie is one of my favorites. Yes it’s a little dark and twisted but it’s such a unique perspective on what a coma could be and the down town scenes are extremely immersive. This movie was just ahead of it’s time and that’s why it didn’t do so well.
Now that whenever I hear that line in the song, "gotta keep 'em separated," I can't get this trailer out of my thoughts. It's been 15 years and I still associate the two.
No there is a version where a one of the toy monkeys inflates in the car and causes him to lose control of the car and it crashes with me and his future wife inside.
I can’t believe that for so many years I tried to find this movie and when I ask to people if they knew a movie like this and they looked at me like I was crazy, so I began to think that I might be crazy but it turns out to be real 😂😂 and seeing so many people in the comment section telling their similar stories about watching this movie as a child (I was probably 5-6 at that time) and being haunted by it makes me feel better and not finally not alone. Love you all guys, I think we have some kind of connection with this 😅
for me, this is one of the best but wackiest works of Henry Selick, is a mind-bending adventure full of madness, fun, humor and with a abstract touch in his scenery, is almost a painting in the most bizarre style than a movie, for that is so original, a carnival of colors and feelings, in the middle of the nightmarish surroundings of the human mind, a crazy yet unforgettable film.
Ahh, that weird short period between the end of the 90s and 9/11. It actually almost felt like the new decade would be as exciting and promising as we'd hoped for rather than the disaster it turned out to be. The bizarre nature of this film (I haven't seen it btw) is probably a reflection of the zeitgeist of that short period.
Never knew this was directed by Tim Burton. I was always disturbed while watching it as a child, but still facilitated by the creativity. Now it all makes sense. Still a creepy film.
Stop motion master Henry Selick was the one who directed the Nightmare Before Christmas, while Tim Burton was the one who came up with the idea but he couldn't direct it since he was busy with other projects.
Tim Burton is the creator of a Nightmare Before Christmas however he, in fact, did NOT direct it. Henry Selick is the director of it and of this fever dream of a film
This movie needs a serious remake, they kinda wasted the idea of a cartoon character being born from harmful thoughts or repressed desires embodied, just a movie about a guy being trapped in his own psych is interesting on its own
I remember watching this movie all the time as a kid but can’t remember what it’s about or anything from the movie and even come back and watching this trailer I’m still like ?????
I only just unlocked the films name in my memory after seeing someone sculpt a man-couch! I honestly thought I dreamt up this film, saw it as a kid a few times but my adult mind thought it was my obsession with stuff like invader zim etc and the mummy that mixed together.
Its funny how abunch of us have this dream like - was this real, memory of this movie 😆 I remember liking it...possibly loving it! It wasn't the type of movie/character I was use to seeing Brandon Fraiser play in. Deff going to watch it tonight!
Am I the only one who actually realised that the plot of Pixar’s Soul basically is the plot of this movie but just told infinitely better? Think about it: a guy who is just about to achieve his dreams in life (Cartoonist/musician) suddenly ends up in a coma and gets transported to a world where souls wait before they either live or die. Then he meets this quirky new character who eventually ends up in the main character’s body back on Earth and goes through shenanigans in the process. I hope I’m not the only person who realises all these similarities.
This was one of my favorites movies as a kid , I watched when I was in elementary I think so th movie was getting a little old for that time I was a weird kid and this is the proff
i saw this movie as a kid, years later as an adult i started having these flashes of some parts of this movie, told my friends about it and they said i was imagining things but i was sure i saw it in a movie, i have been searching for it for more than a year Glad i finally found it
dude this shit use to scare tf out of me for some reason. i just remembered it recently and i was sure that it was just some vivid dream or something, but its actually real
My mom and I saw this at Hemet Cinema when it first came out. There was literally one other person in the theater there with us. I enjoyed this film, as dumb as it was.
I always thought I accidentally took acid as a kid but nope… here I am twenty years later with this flashback in my head and googling “weird monkey movie.” At first I thought it was the mask…
*FUCK ME WHAT A HILARIOUS MEMORY!* I remember we were at high school living at a random house we rented just to hang out with friends, we rented this movie on VHS, go chips and soda and we were ready to watch the latest movie released, as soon as it started, one of our friends said: "*WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT! A COW IN A SYNTHESIS IMAGE THAT MOVES!"* we died laughing our asses and we just had to stop the movie because it was terrible, luckily we had a bunch of other movies and we ended up watching Blair Witch 2 that was released a year earlier I guess, I miss those times!
Wait a sec here: • A guy on the brink of success dies unexpectedly and ends up in limbo • He comes across a troublemaker who's been there for a long time and teams up for him to get back. • Troublemaker ends up getting sent back instead and into the guy's body. • Guy trys to get his body back before the event of his achievement. Does that sound like the plot of a certain recently released Pixar movie?
It's as if there's tons of different parts in the trailer and in the movie -the way he gets into the coma -when was he in a telephone booth? -the cartoons in the beginning of monkeybone and stu, falling from a building man i would love to see all those deleted scenes...
Bro I use to watch this on dvd yes dvd LAMO we didn’t have internet yet this was a weird movie. But I remember this such a weird fever dream I am 14 now 😭
Alv cuando era niño soñaba con un limbo muy parecido a este y ahora me entero que es una pelicula real. ya no se ni que pensar me despertaron un trauma xd
i literally remember watching this as a little kid and having a gay awakening at the scene with the monkey and the cat girl, and also distinctly remembering it as a whole fever dream cuz i coulda sworn the monkey wasn't animated
![Gunna - one of wun [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/w_JtBYqMgk8/mqdefault.jpg)
imagine watching this multiple times as a toddler who hasn't even gone to school yet, i have so many horrid memories of this
dude, i dont know why I ever watched this as a kid
And multiple times too lol
Same here bro, completely forgot about this movie until my mum reminded me of it earlier today 😂 need to watch it again
exactly my life. this was my favourite movie as a 3 year old why?
Dude same here. I just found this by googling “weird monkey movie with his organs falling out at the end”
I was sure I had hallucinated this in some sort of fever dream but it turns out its real. wow.
Jodi Barrett ME TOO! this movie would creep me out but I vaguely remember it, I thought maybe I had dreamt it.
tbh it seems like the creators had a fever dream too
That's weird you guys say this, I thought I had dreamt it too. I had a very foggy memory of it. It wasn't until someone mentioned it again that I looked it up
You thought u dreamed about a orangutan pervert? What kind of dreams do u have?
Jodi Barrett yoo thats so cool i have such vague memories of this too i could never properly remember
I just recently started to remember watching this movie as a kid and how it felt fever dream-ish
I am astonished at how many people share my exact experience with this movie

@@ChadDidNothingWrong no not on a kids channel it was a dvd/vhs that my parents rented or some shit because i remember watching it repeatedly in a short period of time
Yes I watched it in the theaters and eventually my mom said ok honey it’s time to go 😂😂😂
This movie felt like it couldn't decide between being an adult comedy or a kid's movie
I watched it as a kid
Show me the- adult comedy, kids movie..
SHOW ME THE WHATEVER THIS MOVIE IS
Yeah a lot of live action/animated hybrids are like that
Like Osmosis Jones for example
In a strange way then, it's as if the intended audience was always going to be the adult versions of the children from the 90s. Hell of a long-term return on that one.
Yeah, I love movies like that!
The trailer makes it seem like a LOL Comedy
but in reality, I found this movie more creepy than funny
Yap
Creepiest shit I saw as a child
That's why it is dark comedy not everyone would see it as funny.
I had my grandma take me to see this in theaters when I was 7, I thought it looked like a funny monkey movie. Watched it recently and I really love it, knowing what I know now.
It left scars when I was child though haha
Now I gotta watch it again
I had nightmares because of this movie as a kid.
That was the point of the movieb
Same, this movie triggered my first nightmare 😆
Bro when I watched this as a kid, I remembered it as being horrifyingly weird and obscure
Yes, that’s accurate. Especially, from a kids perspective. Nowadays, the movie holds its own and is appreciated by many people.
Fun Fact: Stephen King was actually planning on starring in this film. But couldn't make it so, Jon Bruno had to take his place
As weird as this movie is, I can’t help but find myself actually enjoying it
I mean, sure, it has some plot holes (that are now deleted scenes), but the stop-motion animation is very well done and the concept of the story is pretty interesting
This movie melted my mind when I was a kid! I used to catch parts of this movie on tv and it hypnotized me by how strange and nonsensical it was. I've never actually seen the whole thing and I forgot what it was called but now I'm going to see how it holds up.
So, does it hold up?
@@CrazyFanaticMan Yes, this movie def holds up. It has developed a cult like following and honestly, this movie is one of my favorites. Yes it’s a little dark and twisted but it’s such a unique perspective on what a coma could be and the down town scenes are extremely immersive.

Lol I would watch this all the time when I was little. XD
Now that whenever I hear that line in the song, "gotta keep 'em separated," I can't get this trailer out of my thoughts. It's been 15 years and I still associate the two.
Lol, same here.
Kristian Pahe after reading this comment now never will I
childhood trauma
This movie is every kids first acid trip
I used to love this movie so much as a kid
the version I watched he gets into a car crash a pipe doesn't fall on him
I think you're thinking of Coolworld.
No there is a version where a one of the toy monkeys inflates in the car and causes him to lose control of the car and it crashes with me and his future wife inside.
Why is that ??? I watched the one with the car crash as well.
@@criscasares7595 it's the Mandela effect there was no car crash.
Troy Baker holly crap
Miss Brendon Fraser. He is such a Canadian talented man
Monkeybone, lil nicky & bubble boy are so quintessentially 90s and I miss it so much
None of those are 90s movies
@@ZachCK Was just about to say that
I think what he meant was that these movies felt like they belong in the 90s.Even though these were released and made in the 2000s.
I can’t believe that for so many years I tried to find this movie and when I ask to people if they knew a movie like this and they looked at me like I was crazy, so I began to think that I might be crazy but it turns out to be real 😂😂 and seeing so many people in the comment section telling their similar stories about watching this movie as a child (I was probably 5-6 at that time) and being haunted by it makes me feel better and not finally not alone. Love you all guys, I think we have some kind of connection with this 😅
This movie was like a really bad fever dream. It freaked the hell out out of me when I was a kid and it still kinda does.
*Monkeybone: Who are you?*
*Inkheart: I’m you, but more “Disney-like”*
for me, this is one of the best but wackiest works of Henry Selick, is a mind-bending adventure full of madness, fun, humor and with a abstract touch in his scenery, is almost a painting in the most bizarre style than a movie, for that is so original, a carnival of colors and feelings, in the middle of the nightmarish surroundings of the human mind, a crazy yet unforgettable film.
the mad exactly what I thought it's a fun wacky creepy movie
Well said! I ended up appreciating this movie the more I watched it. It def is creative and unique.
I really love this movie. One of my faves
yea me too
Ahh, that weird short period between the end of the 90s and 9/11.

I thought i was dreaming but it is real hahah
My late best friend introduced me to this movie and I have him to thank for it.
thumbs up if this ruined ur childhood
Pinky
Didn't ruin my childhood.
this movie made me who I am, I used to watch this WHENEVER I could when I was 4 years old, that was 7-8 years ago do the math
tim vapid ruined? Or enhanced? 🤔😉
No i dodnt scare i watched it as normally but some scenes in this movie i stilll remember and doesnt forget
I spent so long thinking I'd dreamt this shit 🤣🤣
This movie was so fucking weird
Aw man, this was my childhood. I love this movie
I had this as a DVD as a kid and when you put it in the computer I remember there would be this little game you could play
Imagine if Tommy Wiseau had a huge budget to work with. Monkeybone sequel? What? Chicken?
Never knew this was directed by Tim Burton. I was always disturbed while watching it as a child, but still facilitated by the creativity. Now it all makes sense. Still a creepy film.
Stop motion master Henry Selick was the one who directed the Nightmare Before Christmas, while Tim Burton was the one who came up with the idea but he couldn't direct it since he was busy with other projects.
Tim Burton is the creator of a Nightmare Before Christmas however he, in fact, did NOT direct it. Henry Selick is the director of it and of this fever dream of a film
No one but me remembers this movie and I feel like this was peak late 90s.
Everytime I went to blockbuster I would always want to rent this but never did
This must be the most craziest and weirdest movies directed by Henry Selick and Starring by Brendan Fraser.
0:12 I don't remember this bit of animation in the movie, damn trailers having the stuff the real movie doesn't have!
Funny- Rose Mcgowan was an extra in Encino Man, starring Brendan Fraser. And now she's starring alongside him.
harvey Weinstein lol
This movie needs a serious remake, they kinda wasted the idea of a cartoon character being born from harmful thoughts or repressed desires embodied, just a movie about a guy being trapped in his own psych is interesting on its own
this was one of the movies i used to watch all the time in high school.
I remember watching this movie all the time as a kid but can’t remember what it’s about or anything from the movie and even come back and watching this trailer I’m still like ?????
I think i blocked all that stuff out
I really liked this film and to be fair, I laughed at every single thing.
yea me too
I watched this when I was younger and could never remember the name of the movie, I've been trying to remember for years and only now just found it!
I only just unlocked the films name in my memory after seeing someone sculpt a man-couch! I honestly thought I dreamt up this film, saw it as a kid a few times but my adult mind thought it was my obsession with stuff like invader zim etc and the mummy that mixed together.

I’m 37 and Remember watching this as a kid. So trippy!
Each frame of this movie is a cursed image.
I watched this movie so many times as a kid lol.
Never heard of this film but this looks hilarious Brendan at his best 👏🏻😂
Alex Kack sent me here.
This is truly my finest moment.
0:41 "Hiya, boss!"
For years I thought this was a fever dream legit
Nostalgia Critic needs to review this.
Now i wanna search it but before i read the coments and find you XD
i search it becose i want made a mix trailer with the mummy of the same actor XDD
He just did
Wish granted
Film Brain's review was better
I too thought this was a fucking fever dream. It took me so long to find it lol

I hope I’m not the only person who realises all these similarities.
Soul definitely handled it better though.
My whole life I thought this movie was just a dream actually.... more like a fever dream and I freaked out when found out that this movie was real.
Yeah, it feels like this movie shouldn't be allowed to exist. It's so surreal and damn creepy.
That seems to be the overwhelming consensus lol
Miss when movies were this simple and good
yea me too
One of my favorite movies of all time
Happy 20th anniversary!!!
I remember my parents taking me to the movie theater to watch this movie what the fuck were they thinking
anyone remember little monsters?
That's my fav 80s movie!!
with labyrint the best of my records XD
Omg yes
This was one of my favorites movies as a kid , I watched when I was in elementary I think so th movie was getting a little old for that time I was a weird kid and this is the proff
i saw this movie as a kid, years later as an adult i started having these flashes of some parts of this movie,

Glad i finally found it
dude this shit use to scare tf out of me for some reason. i just remembered it recently and i was sure that it was just some vivid dream or something, but its actually real
0:29 So it wasn't enough for them to say "from the director of Nightmare Before Christmas", they actually went and used music from it in the trailer?
why not, danny elfman music is great
@@Charles12 Exactly; his music is too good to be associated with this movie
@@otaking3582 yeah that's true
This was pure nightmare fuel for me as a kid
This was my favorite movie when I was 12...
My mom and I saw this at Hemet Cinema when it first came out. There was literally one other person in the theater there with us. I enjoyed this film, as dumb as it was.
"DIVE! DIVE! DIVE!"
Loved this movie. Grew up and watched it while tripping. Honestly I think they made it to trip to😂
Monkeybone without context is the most cursed thing ever.
I always thought I accidentally took acid as a kid but nope… here I am twenty years later with this flashback in my head and googling “weird monkey movie.” At first I thought it was the mask…
This movie scared the hell out of me when i was smaller 😂😂
good movie I like this
I love this movie 😍😍
First time watching this movie after 21 years.
I was almost certain this was a fever dream
Song from 1:13 -1:50?
I could never remember this movie but now that I have. Im shocked but not shocked by the ratings of it. Still though, fever dream fuel!
Sprig: hiya boss 0:41

You and your highschool friends rented a house?!?!?!? Just to "hang out" at?!?!
Wait a sec here:
• A guy on the brink of success dies unexpectedly and ends up in limbo
• He comes across a troublemaker who's been there for a long time and teams up for him to get back.
• Troublemaker ends up getting sent back instead and into the guy's body.
• Guy trys to get his body back before the event of his achievement.
Does that sound like the plot of a certain recently released Pixar movie?
I love this movie
(2009) Trailer HD
And at illumination Mac Guff in Paris, France (Animation/Production)
This movie gave me nightmares as a kid
It's as if there's tons of different parts in the trailer and in the movie
-the way he gets into the coma
-when was he in a telephone booth?
-the cartoons in the beginning of monkeybone and stu, falling from a building
man i would love to see all those deleted scenes...
All of those scenes are included in the bonus features of the DVD
This movie scared me
This movie gave me nightmares when i was younger im pretty sure lol great movie tho
Bro I use to watch this on dvd yes dvd LAMO we didn’t have internet yet this was a weird movie. But I remember this such a weird fever dream I am 14 now 😭

They gave away the entire plot
Feels like a fever dream
One of those fever dream movies
This movie save my quarantine. 2020 anyone?
Omg I have seen this movie over 100 times and actually forgot it existed until seeing some random clip about Brendan Frasier. Fuck.
i literally remember watching this as a little kid and having a gay awakening at the scene with the monkey and the cat girl, and also distinctly remembering it as a whole fever dream cuz i coulda sworn the monkey wasn't animated
i unironically love this movie
yea me too
1:33 AW HELL NO!
I bought this on DVD.... YEAH THAT'S RIGHT. Fkn worth it too.
