Hello Sourcebrew, can you talk about Crocpond, a Lost Media cartoon please
"This film is cursed because the actor died 2 years after the film was finished" is the most backwards ass way of claiming something is cursed.
Guys guys I just realized Smiling Friends is cursed!! Gilbert Gottfried died 4 months after his cameo in the show!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯
(obvious satire)
Bermuda Triangle logic, where "the area surrounding it" is basically the entire Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea.
yeah i was thinking this lol, some of the stuff is a bit far fetched
"this actor died of a natural cause 40 years after the movie, its 100% cursed omg"
Well then STALKER is extremely cursed since everyone died of cancer, ignore the part they filmed inside the exclusion zone of Ukraine.
All those old Facebook posts saying “Send this message to the next 20 people or you die at midnight” would definitely fit this iceberg.
fr
Those messages were around long before Facebook.
Dude, before the internet people were literally were sending letters like that to your house!
Chain letters were the WORST. I had those “not really a friend” friends, so I got them too often.
Copy this comment to all your subscriptions or you will fall off 😂
that's not a curse, that's just filmmaking in the 70s before the horrific Twilight Zone movie accident forced the industry to set safety standards
Actually they were breaking the law during filming. If anyone had bothered to enforce the rules that already existed it never would've happened.
@@Jacob-Sophia hence safety, keyword, standards
I wonder if that scene from the Simpsons where they dump acid in the nuclear plant for the radioactive man movie is making fun of that cursed fact
@Jacob-Sophia are you really that slow?
@@whiteydiamond The comment stated that the accident happened because there were no safety standards to stop it. I explained that, no, there were standards in place that were simply ignored. Are _you_ stupid?
900 People gouged their eyes out and sent them to me after I smiled in public.
Exorcist isn't cursed. Friedkin just didn't give a damn about actor safety.
That could be said about a lot of these entries, and some of these aren't even "cursed" at all, just very mildly spooky
@@CinnamonGrrlErin1 oh for sure, there's a reason they list older productions.
@@CinnamonGrrlErin1Or all the actors had ridiculous substance abuse problems so it's unfortunately not a surprise they died young, suddenly, and tragically.
The King in Yellow is probably on here because there's a fictional play in the book called "The King in Yellow" that's said to drive people insane
Good I’m glad someone pointed this out. Some of these aren’t well-researched.
Steven Spielberg and Tobe Hooper actually did use human remains during the filming of Poltergeist, specifically the scene where Diane is swimming and a skeleton emerges from the water. The actress, JoBeth Williams, wasn't told that the skeleton was real until filming ended.
Yes they used human skeletons that were used at a local school.
That WPKEPKW thing has to be Rick Astley.
That or Joe Camel
@@AtomicRufflesI always thought it looked like adolf hitler 😭
Minky Momo changed its genre from "Magical Girl" to "Isekai" in its finale.
Basically first isekei and is considered cursed cause of quakes and tsunamis
Ok, I'm gonna be that person: Actually... Buddy Ebsen was not in "The Wizard of Oz". He was supposed to be in it, but, as you said, the silver paint sent him to the hospital. They ended up re-casting the role; the Tin Man was played by Jack Haley.
Thank you! I was sitting there like "wait..thats not right"
@@benamisai-kham5892 No problem! I love being able to be a smarty-pants. (-:
This is the cringiest most redditor thing ive read all day
@@Tywayyou’ll live
do NOT start a comment like this ever again. you are completely right, you just sound like a redditor 😭
So most of these are just coincidences that can be easily explained, but doing so would be really boring
a more lighthearted addition to the alleged macbeth curse:
in season 7 of rupaul’s drag race there was an episode called “shakesqueer” where the queens competed in two groups performing parodies of shakespeare plays. the production of “macb*tch” ended up being a total disaster, with multiple queens forgetting their lines, costumes falling apart, etc. a very entertaining episode lol
Chris-chan is perhaps more cursed than anything else on this iceberg...
The idea behind Killswitch of a game that deletes itself once you lose in it is actually pretty old; I remember even Hideo Kojima had been entertaining the idea in some interviews since at least 15 years back, so this is likely where the legend takes its inspiration from.
The idea of a self-erasing file has been a thing for decades. It can go as far back as self-erasing disks and CDs.
@@BeyondBaito Back to tapes, like in several spy shows.
Shout-Outs to the "Persona 5 Collab Curse."
As the story goes, whenever a mobile game gets a Persona 5 series Collaboration Event, it often ends service about a year later.
hahaha nice
@@Matt-md5yt It's a much lighter "curse" compared to any of the examples explained in the video, as it didn't cause any direct human injury/death. It is, however, still an interesting chain of coincidences.
Also there's a decent amount of mobile games that weren't affected by the "curse."
This is a symptom of using a fad to try and get more players. They'll play the Persona 5 stuff, and then go to the next game with a Persona 5 collab, rather than staying around.
Certainly plausible. But it's funnier to think of it as a curse.
Happened with LLSIF at the very least
when you started talking about Sinatra's My Way I immediatly thought of covers by Elvis and Sid Vicious. they recorded their versions of the song not-so-long before their deaths. I think it suits the cursed vibe more than drunken karaoke rage
Minor nitpick: The 'White Album' didnt officially have that title. It was a self-titled album that just became known as the White Album because of the cover. Good video though.
There was a documentary made about the making of Fitzcarraldo and it came out around the same time. It was called Burden of Dreams. It's better than Fitzcarraldo. As the movie is about an obsessed maniac trying to achieve a Sisyphean task in the jungle, the documentary is about Herzog doing the same thing. It's very meta and most highly recommended.
Cursed media such as movies were the creepypastas before creepypastas
Urban legends through the ages
There’s some music with weird proximity to the deaths of their artists that could be included:
Alice In Chains - Dirt
Biggie Smalls - Ready to Die/Life After Death
Mayhem - Dawn Of The Black Hearts
Sublime self titled ended up being released posthumously since Bradley passed right before releasing it
2Pac - If i die 2Nite/I aint mad atcha
To be fair, Henry Cavil did have quite a bit of misfortune.
DC suits decided to remove him as Superman despite him being one of the best in the entire DCU and he was removed from The Witcher for bothering to want things to remain loyal to the books.
Wasn't he removed for Sex Pest allegations?
@@deearr420 if by "Sex Pest" you mean "he pestered some of the crew who happened to be members of the opposite sex about the faithfulness of the adaptation", then yes.
@WK-47 no, I mean flirting with underage girls, dating 19 year old women in his 30s and being generally accused of mistreating women but im certain you're being intentionally obtuse
Can't believe so many people were scared of Steve Buscemi staring at you with a red filter
Cursed RUclips videos are so funny to me because of the idea that multiple people died from watching these videos and that no law enforcement agency ever looked into this following the event.
Just sat down to do dishes, perfect timing, thanks source!
How do you do the dishes sitting down?
I have a elevated chair lol
@@myukiscottage9054life hack
@@myukiscottage9054I watched this entire video while doing the dishes! Lol
@@myukiscottage9054 I’m more confused now ??
Thank you for the reply ! 👍🏻
Not gonna lie, I really like Billie Holiday's rendition of Gloomy Sunday. It's a favorite of mine from Billie with how beautifully melancholic it is.
Emilie Autumn's version is haunting as well.
I wasn't expecting KMFDM to be on here as a cursed media, but yeah, there are some bad things indirectly connected to some of their songs. Screw the weird columbine simps who only like the music because the shooters listened to it
I'm a grower, they call me "The Iceberg"
I watched Rosemary’s Baby last year for the first time and I will never watch it again. 😅
They did make a movie about the making of Fitzcarraldo - Burden of Dreams. It is almost more famous than the actual movie. I am surprised that you missed that.
the scottish play curse happened during my school's production of it.
one guy died in a motorcycle accident while the other guy (who was part of the main cast) sustained major injuries
I also remember when SOG used to cover a lot these. Good times
Hey bro some advice please put chapters in your videos to each tier of the iceberg
Not enough "The Conqueror".
Also, there's this 2010 film called "Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer". It's another one of those inoffensive kid's films, this time based on a book series, that were made ever so often and promoted heavily at the time. These films would be heavily promoted, and since they were released during the summer would be seen by large numbers of families who just wanted something inoffensive to watch with the whole family. However, two of the cast members of the movie have died.
One of them was Cameron Boyce 😭💔
Can't believe "The Conqueror" isn't here
jolly ahh music in that displate advert followed by some of the most abhorrent media🤣
Burdon of Dreams was a documentary made based off behind the scenes footage of Herzog's Fitzcarraldo. The film's production portrayed in the doc is just as insane as you'd imagine.
So glad that you didn't give a list of lies and hyperbole about The Wizard of Oz like most RUclipsrs do- very refreshing
We are so back
The Crow remake is definitely cursed
"The Last Temptation of Christ" is actually fanfiction years before fanfiction was written by teenagers
No mention of gozu/cow head? It's probably one of the most famous tales of a cursed story ever
You are such a good iceberg content creator and your voice really resonates with me. Pls don't stop. No one I know parallels your style of video. Thank you
Really? I find him and his voice irritating. His GTA videos were infuriating to watch. He does no research for any of the entries on the iceberg. Just reads them off like a mindless drone.
That's very kind, thank you
MARS VOLTA MENTIONED????
Fuckin love those guys dude, the story behind Bedlam is fucking crazy (but it is for most of their albums tbh)
Hell yeah! Glad someone noticed
Thank you so much for a new video! Your content is amazing and I've been watching your content for about a year and a half ❤😊
You forgot the most terrifying curse of them all still hunting us to this day:
The Curse of Skibidi Toilet
Mikey Momo and Memphis Rap in the same tier is a combination I didn't expect but need.
thank you for keeping this format fresh
Yeah another banger video from sourcebrew 🤩🤩🤩
7:40 Heather O'Rourke died on February 1, 1988, not in 1987.
Should have had those “Send this to your friends or” things
To anyone whose curiosity was sparked by Antrum... It's not worth it at all imo. I watched it 2-3 years ago and thought it was incredibly underwhelming. If you're wondering, it's not just a mockumentary, they play the in-universe cursed film for 90% of the runtime, and it's an incoherent artsy horror film that does terrible job immitating the 70s aesthetic (not nearly gritty looking enough, obvious filters and isn't even shot like an old movie so I couldn't get immersed into this supposed obscure 70s movie at all). The movie itself is very slow, boring and, frankly, feels like a film student's school project at times.
The big in-universe revelation in the end, is that all throughout the movie there are satanic symbols incorporated into the film in a scratched-into-the-filmtape style, and some trivia by interviewees is given that the symbols represent some horrible demon, tied to many historical tragedies. It's a cool idea (if a little nonsensical, cuz why would they make a documentary about a supposed cursed film and show it in the same documentary), but the execution is very mid.
I remember watching antrum and really liking it, it was different from what I was used to watch so I had some fun, although I agree that has fallen very short to other movies of the same genre
Your videos always come in perfect timing
Just got home from a long day of work. And this popped up to my video recommendations, what a perfect timing 😊❤
Was it really that long though?
I've been waiting for this exact video
glad you did this iceberg Brew
perfectly timed right as i start super monotonous work :)
I'm so excited to watch this video! Love your work sourcebrew
26:40 She was trans, not a drag queen
I met Linda Blair back in 2017 . She was a guest at my local con and she was genuinely one of the nicest people you could meet.
one piece of cursed media I missed on the iceberg is 'Destati', a song composed by Yoko Shimomura for the Kingdom Hearts games. according to Shimomura, whenever they tried loading the chorus for use in other songs, something bad would happen; most notably the power to the entire building went out after an attempt to load the chorus. I've never heard of the Destati Curse striking after the release of Kingdom Hearts 1, though the full track wasn't used in any game until very recently. more of a funny curse than a serious curse.
Surprised that the painting "Man Proposes, God Disposes" didn't get featured. It's an 1864 painting of two polar bears mauling a camp (based on Franklin's lost expedition) that is said to be cursed according to urban legend (there are rumors that students who studied near that painting will fail their exams or even kill themselves).
the Japanese Kleenex ad is so creepy I could not sleep that night I first heard about it
I tested the berserk myth for myself. Found the machine once in an arcade and got the high score. Put my name in. Still alive tho 🤷♀️ for now
You wanna know something crazy? When I was in high school, one of my assignments in my English class was to write a parody of a piece of literature we had read that year, and I chose to write a parody of Macbeth where all the characters were famous RUclipsrs. This was in 2015, and since then, most of the RUclipsrs have become disgraced in some fashion, including Cry, Tobuscus, PewDiePie, the GameGrumps, and JonTron. I was also going to put LeafyIsHere in a future chapter but I never got around to it.
I was watching a previous iceberg right before this lol
The Helter Skelter thing has been disproven a million times over. Manson had a vendetta with the former property owner and that's why they were targeted. Manson was insane but he denied that consistently being true for decades, it only really took shape due to the book published and movie produced around the time of the trial.
The bullet that was part of Brandon Lee's death was emptied so they wanted to use dummy bullets but director said no
Dude I don't know why i don't get notifications for your videos i have the bell on and my phone notifications enabled.
Wooo, thanks for a new iceberg video!Cursed media seems to be getting a revival recently.
wake up babe new sourcebrew iceberg video
@nohandlefound. I don't even watch this guy, I don't even remember subscribing to him
always a great day when you, parallel pipes and the kungfu panda posts an iceberg video
I was remember hearing about the death of George Reeve in the Simpsons episode 3 men and a comic book with the character of Dirk Ricter the actor who played Radioactive Man in the Simpsons being a direct reference to Mr. Reeve.
Of course the claims about the Japanese kleenex commercial are 100% fake so I'm not sure it belongs here. I also don't find it that creepy, I think the Oni baby is pretty cute lol
God really said, “Last chance, stand down.” to The Omen 😂💀
Yay new source brew on my birthday! Thank you for all your content ♥️
Happy birthday!
@@sourcebrew thank you! 🤩
This is a cool idea, keep up the good work Source. 😮😃
As an aside, love the addition of using Silent Hill 4 music.
I see you are also a true and honest CWC fan
Awesome video! I love this kind of creepy stuff.😁
As soon as I saw sourcebrew: LEEETTTSS GOOOOOOO
Saw Antrum. You're not missing much. A very try hard spooky film that Red Letter Media would have a field day with.
I don't think so tbh. It's just very mid - not nearly well made enough to give praise where its due, and not nearly bad enough to poke fun of. Cool concept, underwhleming execution. I don't think they'd have much to talk about.
44:00 The Mars Volta had a flash game come out about this I remember playing way back
@42:14 the lead actor Klaus Kinski was an unhinged lunatic... He even stole a real loaded gun during one of his notorious fits of rage and fired it into a tent in which some members of the cast and crew sat and played cards, grazing the arm of one of the crewmembers in the process.. thankfully no one was hurt or even died by that... Kinsky was a psycho in general and allegedly even r****d his mother, sister and daughter. There's also a documentary about the love hate relationship Director Werner Herzog had with Kinsky as those two were working together on a lot of Projects, it's called My Best Fiend .. it goes really in depth about their complicated relationship and it's worth a watch.
6:22 That's just D'Arby's stand, nothing to do with the movie.
That is funny you mention the hopes Diamond. I saw it for the first time after being in Gettysburg’s and having a paranormal experience in the Gettysburg hotel and taking a tour of the haunted objects museum there.
The mars volta mentioned 🗣🗣
I dunno, that last factoid on The Omen sounds made up. Not the person dying in the car accident, but the sign reading 66.6 km.
32:44 why does he look like a default character model from half life
I love how the further along we got in the iceberg, the more annoyed you got with the content
Fun fact in a 2000s anime called hetalia theres an episode were they make fun of the story of bubsy chair
Perfect to have as background while i do some shinyhunting nwn
another connection between The Beatles and Rosemary's Baby: the film was shot at the Dakota, and near the beginning a character falls to her death. The spot they had her land on was the same spot John Lennon would be killed.
Sorcebrew: Please make the Planet Sheen Iceberg 🧊
Now that would be cool
Yes
43:40 the best part about that is that he declined, yeah, but "because he needed Kinski for himself to finish the movie". It's a bizarre, although hilarious story.
I remember when ScareTheater did a video on wpkepkw. Nice video!
I know you youngsters like these iceberg videos but DAMN, 9:17 are we really gonna talk about Brandon Lee without saying he was Bruce Lee's SON ???
Finding out you love Persona was a SHOCKER I love persona so whenever someone I know also likes it I go crazy 😭
Fire vid bro keep it up man 💯
YES NEEDED THIS THANK YOU SOURCE 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Also The Exorcist did also have an actual serial killer cast in the movie as the X-Ray technician
I own a first edition copy of the King in Yellow. It looks just like the picture you showed. Can confirm reading it is very powerful. It's also made me love modern references to it. I'll have to check out True Detective.
