Was looking everywhere to see this scene again! I can't describe the feeling I got when I saw this scene in the cinema, this was truly incredible… No words.
I felt the same! In my country, we saw it in the hugest cinema line. There were only like 5 people in the room, including me and my friend. But we saw it in the theatre.
The music and strobe lighting being hypnotic in itself was the primary thing that drew me but what was particularly unsettling (Besides the tied-up model spinning about in bondage mummy gear) was the predatory dead-eyed glances both of the other girls sitting together gave Elle Fanning's character at different points. Also like how the scene ends with the screen panning left with Elle Fanning's enraptured face almost being absorbed to what she's staring at. Like a sweet fly being drawn to a honeyed spiderweb.
Yeah man - here I am commenting 7 years after yours, and, I just finally watched this recently, and this scene especially really stuck with me, especially because of the music - but also the strobe visuals here are amazing.
Oh, (EDIT!) SAME!!! I also shuttered when it went from that pool scene to the bathtub scene...Worst yet best transition in a film I have ever experienced.
this scene is just incredible, I rewatched it so many times....it's so damn hypnotizing the whole movie is great, it has so many beautiful shots and this threatening atmosphere is always lingering in the background...more movies like that pls and less superhero junk
The best scene of the movie together with the blood bath of Ruby later on. Everything about this scene is perfect : the music, he characters looking on at each other in the dark. Ruby already looks like a dangerous person : her reactions are scary, especially her fascination towards Jessy. This one seems to fall into a trap, mesmerized by the beauty of shiny neons...
The proxemics of these shots and cinematography itself made me not to trust Ruby despite how friendly she appeared at a first glance. How she is standing behind Jesse in a quite sneaky way, how you don't see any real expression until Jesse looks at her and then she puts on the happy excited facade. The way Gigi glares at Jesse while red flashes are going on, it's just scary. She genuinely looks like a psychopath. Loved every minute of this film.
I guess the figure represents the neon demon, with Ruby way in the back, then Sarah, then Gigi and Jessie being the closest to it, in the end she stepped towards it as if there is no going back
@@Lost_Hermetics Are Ruby and the other two girls witches? I love this movie and it really seems like they performed a magic ritual at the end with Jesse as their sacrifice.
@@LiirThropp2687 Exactly they are..as you mentioned it, our pure little soul has been sacrificed to this demon just as they asked her "are you food or are you sex?" and decided shes food/sacrifice since she rejected the gang sexually..
This honestly is one of my favorite Horror Scenes. Anytime I think of a horror scene that pulls me in, this is definitely one of them. It pulls me in and I feel like I'm being hypnotized. I think a lot of people feel like this. I love Jena Malone in this movie so much. She truly mastered this role.
0:40 Кто был в кинотеатре в этот момент поймёт меня - у всех просто привстала шишка, и тела покрылись муражками) Нереальный момент экстаза от внезапного бита музыки и этих стропоскопных вспышек
I admit feeling really upset about the film. Not because of the ending. I just had some problems with the film’s pacing I guess? But can’t deny that after days of seeing it, I can still remember scenes from it. This scene in particular , as well as the casting scene, stood out for me - not much or no dialogue at all. This one’s dark and foreboding while the other one’s light and bare but you can see glances and reactions that, for me, speak more of how these characters think and what their motivations are. I dread to say this but this film might need a second viewing.
I thought it was alright. Visuals were definitely the best part, but I wish more scenes looked like this one. Or at least they coulda had more bright, sensual lighting. Like old school Suspiria where every shot in the movie’s saturated to hell lol
Would love to visit similar parties, at least with the same music (slow, deep and dark. Ebsm I think?). Anyone who can point me in the right direction within Europe?
Reminds me of german techno/tech house. I've been to a few underground techno parties in berlin wich gave off a similar vibe. It's also this dark, hard hitting, industrial type of sound
No.... it's a Shibari show. My ex-girlfriend has done Shibari shows, and I'm just a huge fan of Shibari in general. That is what they look like. Usually their a lot less dramatic though.
Yes I know the Shibari, but it has a different meaning in the movie, there's no other people in that moment except the three girls and that creature. when they entered the club it was crowded. the real meaning of this scene is the irresistible attraction the dark and unknown world of fashion can have on a young and innocent girl; while she ignores the wolfs that it hides behind.

apocaalypso its a great scene/song
apocaalypso I'm jealous you saw this in cinema
Usually big cities have theatres dedicated to art film and that's amazing. I feel lucky to be able to watch those kinds of films in a cinema

My favorite scene from one of my favorite movies

the staring is terrifying.
God damn, the soundtrack in this
Ikr it's amazing
So good. "C21st Giorgio Moroder" good.
Yeah man - here I am commenting 7 years after yours, and, I just finally watched this recently, and this scene especially really stuck with me, especially because of the music - but also the strobe visuals here are amazing.
i was so high watching this movie. best decision ever
Even at the end ?
yo same

Watch Only God Forgives
@@thepat-man5101 have watched and didnt like it that much. but wasn stoned watching it
i remember my jaw just dropping during this entire scene. it's so amazingly crafted, nicholas refn is a true visual artist
Crazy movie
Watching this scene in the cinema is a totally different experience, what a great movie
Love or hate him, Nicholas WInding Refn is an artist. The technique here is stunning AND it serves the characters, story, and themes.
this scene is just incredible, I rewatched it so many times....it's so damn hypnotizing
the whole movie is great, it has so many beautiful shots and this threatening atmosphere is always lingering in the background...more movies like that pls and less superhero junk
Slevin is one to be obeyed 👌
couldn't agree more !
This scene is so deep, so extra.. Ruby introduce the innocent, pure "Sacrifice" to the Demon she worships.
The best scene of the movie together with the blood bath of Ruby later on.

Somehow Jena Malone stole this through her reactions.... along with the rest of the movie
This movie is so underrated. One of my favorite horror movies of all time
It's not REALLY a horror movie.
@@arcticwolf6402yes it is a movie about jealous
For me, the cast in this movie was absolutely perfect down to every single role, maybe the most perfect I‘ve ever seen along with Tarantinos work
This movie is visually mind blowing
hypnotic art
every scene is very impressively beutiful
Just like you.
Damn son
Such a beautiful film. Idk why it got such a low rating. Nwr is a genius

Loved every minute of this film.
This movie deserves so much more credit. It's not afraid to do something different. Every actor in this is great and the way its shot is beautiful too
A harmless fly is being lured into the spider’s web
That scene absolutely blew me away in theatre
The way Bella and Abby stare at Elle
I guess the figure represents the neon demon, with Ruby way in the back, then Sarah, then Gigi and Jessie being the closest to it, in the end she stepped towards it as if there is no going back

Watching this a second time is so much more sinister.

There needs to be an epileptic trigger warning on this whole fantastic damn movie!

This is actually a disturbing movie.. disturbing yet clarifying.. the true nature of the "industry" run by deviant, psychopathic Demon worshippers...
I thought Jessie’s death felt anti climatic bu I really enjoyed parts of this film
I thought it was alright. Visuals were definitely the best part, but I wish more scenes looked like this one. Or at least they coulda had more bright, sensual lighting. Like old school Suspiria where every shot in the movie’s saturated to hell lol
So much body language in this scene
I watch this once a day
I just watched this movie. You know you've found a treasure when you watch a movie 4 times back to back. And yeah this scene was the hook.
About this scene being the hook? AGREED! It is absolutely mesmerizing!
@@Tumbledweeb I should start a blog or find one dealing with just NWR. I just finished Copenhagen Cowboy and was or still am stunned.
@@amerikajin777 NWR?
I also don't know what Copenhagen Cowboy is either.
What we call art
Mike Bello me?
🍕🌭🍕🌭🍕🌭🍕🌭
Kinbaku I guess.
This is called a ritual.
This movie is visually stunning! 🤩
This Scene is incredibly well costructed. Sadly the Movie did not get the attention it deserves.
This scene might have given me epilepsy but I think it was worth it
PERFECTION
I'm addict from this scene. Hell yea.
This scene makes a better trailer than the official one
Loved this part!
1:55 Did anyone notice that the one next to Abbey Lee is not Bella Heathcote but is a freaking doll???
Traumatic
Holyshit you're right ! Never noticed before.
I don't think that was a doll, I think she was just out of focus for that shot.
No,thats bella she has the doll look
I liked this movie up until the last act, very effed up and bizarre lol. But I do love this scene and the music.
Would love to visit similar parties, at least with the same music (slow, deep and dark. Ebsm I think?). Anyone who can point me in the right direction within Europe?
Also wondering! Looks so cool!
Reminds me of german techno/tech house. I've been to a few underground techno parties in berlin wich gave off a similar vibe. It's also this dark, hard hitting, industrial type of sound
Classic Scene with techno thumping
Ya'll have to watch this scene on an OLED TV. It's something else really!
Incredible
RIP people with Epilepsy.
Why can't I stop watching this scene.
Awesome !
Fantastic movie, lucky I've seen it in the big screen.
I love this song
I ❤️ this song !
It's not a song, it's a track
?
@@superroxyt nobody sings anything in that track, so it's not a song
Ah lol okay . Understood. 😆
I love this track ! ❤️
I honestly did love the music Cliff Martinez is great
mesmerizing and creepy
I get that ill feeling of almost falling for an epileptic crisis while watching this but it is also so hypnotic that I want to watch it again.
What is the sound at the very beginning of the video? Just before the dance
More, more, more...more epiletic clip
I generally dislike Refn’s movies, but this scene is pretty epic
Theyre like witches in a coven luring jessie to join
SO sad sound ambiance ;-)
Perfeição.
in a world a world where, everyone MUST believe you are whateverso you claim to be.... WHAT A DANCE!!!
The stares!
Anyone knows how that kinda ritual pose is called?
😯Wow. I love❤the music🎶, but🤔who or what was that dancing?
I haven't seen so much red since I went to the ketchup factory.
huu alguien se tiro unos pasos en el barcito de Mass effect
Hello to all my epileptic friends.
you not need eyes to see
Didn’t get the point of this scene??!! Was the floating one the demon for real? If so, then what??
¿Acaso eso es Shibari?
What genre of music is that?
Dark Techno 👍
I think it felt a bit avant garde for people. But the thing is modeling and fashion photos are weird as well
C'est jouissif hein ?
I guess this is the "neon demon" and the others are like witches in a coven🤔
CINEMA
Japanese?
🔺=💀
hooo!! ami tambien me gusta la musica gay♥ Y love you Pupy
women go crazy jealous over younger prettier girls, the hatred is real! good movie.
Dont watch if propensity to sieze

2020.
It all makes sense now.
🍕🌭🍕🌭🍕🌭🍕🌭🍕🌭
can someone explain me the meaning of this scene?
Prey being given to predators.
Sebas Velazquez' it's called Shibari? It's Japanese rope tying, and it's very popular in fetish communities
Not a club show, the three girls bring the little one to their demon. Inside of them, the idea of a sacrifice is starting to build up.
No.... it's a Shibari show. My ex-girlfriend has done Shibari shows, and I'm just a huge fan of Shibari in general. That is what they look like. Usually their a lot less dramatic though.

LIRIK
If you want your life to be like this, don't work in a bank or play rock music. It should be obvious, but just in case.
dmt
masonic ritual, Torture, adrenochrome... They're showing us
Cool movie tho
🍕🌭🍕🌭🍕🌭🍕🌭
Ruby introduce the innocent, pure "Sacrifice" to the Demon she worships.
don't be silly.
The only good scene of this entire film lol
that was literally one of the most boring "dance" scenes ever. visually it was nice but repetitious.
still gave it a thumbs up in the end.
Lol what a nothing movie
2:17 is her being pulled into the world of the neon demon.
