Demonic entity socialization plan... up until she becomes a streamer or smthn. Imagine how much money she can make online if her singing works through speakers.
Fun fact about sirens in mythology, singing about sex ISN'T what they do, they sing about desire in general. If you desire knowledge above all they will sing about having knowledge, if you DO desire sex they will sing about it, if you desire mac and cheese above all else they'll even sing about having it
I love thinking about someone being like "she can't enchant me, I'm gay/asexual" and then she starts singing about the world's biggest ball of yarn and dude is in the water drowning to get to her
They're still smarter than the nazis in The Devil's Rock (2011). They summon a succubus, realize Hell is real, and are immediately dumb enough to go "How can we weaponize this? Surely there won't be any consequences for our hubris."
@@al145In Greek mythology, a siren is actually a bird-woman hybrid. It didn't start being conflated with a mermaid until many centuries later, so it's actually more accurate to the myth.
Some old guys in Greece thousands of years ago: Hey, don't mess with the monster ladies on the islands. A lot of people nowadays, men and women alike, holding flowers and chocolates, trudging into the water: Okay, but hear me out.

The Siren character was very unique. When she sang she could see inside of you in a way that other people cannot. She saw who that man was down to his deepest self without any filters or being able to hide anything. She fell in love with him because of what she saw. They should really do a follow up story to this.
Fun fact: this movie is inspired by a short film made in the popular horror movie V/H/S. People liked it so much, the creator made a whole movie about it. It's a great movie, really creepy, even though the series has a history of having weirdo main characters that makes it hard to feel bad for them when they die.
I’m jealous of this guy getting a siren/demon girlfriend, some people have all the luck. She has wings, could you imagine all the cool stuff she could do, like carry me over traffic or help me reach a very high shelf without a stool. Some dudes could only dream of such a girlfriend.
As a Missourian, I can assure you all that Humansville is real and nothing suspicious happens there at all and if you think otherwise you're just paranoid.
I have 4 types of epilepsy and absence seizures is one of them. I used to get scolded and told off so much in school. the teachers would even constantly tell my parents i was pretty much useless because i would be "zoning" out for upto 20 times a day. After a quick check up and many tests, doctors confirmed i was having around 20-25 absence seizures a day lasting to 10 seconds upto an entire minute. the teachers immediately swallowed all their words. always make sure to check on excessive zoning out. Might be more than simply boredom!
Similar story, I have JME and my teachers would always tell my parents that I was spacey or a space cadet/would zone out. Come to find I was having absence seizures for years before the first grand Mal ever happened. I wouldn't remember any of it, completely lapsed minutes. Couldn't pick things up in the morning, hold a pencil, plus the absence were defining features of the disorder. Seizure free since 2010 but still on meds, too scared to wean off and have seizures again.
I have an aunt who has absent seizures lasting upwards of 5 minutes at times. Really bizarre as she completely gone and when she comes around it's like she holding her breath underwater and just came back to the surface
Honestly, she's aint that bad. At least she will listen very attentively to me ranting about some incredibly obscure history topics (no understanding required).

I mean, assuming i'm single at the time, a supernatural wife guaranteed not to cheat isn't the worst thing i could be getting stuck with. The real challange would be teaching her not to eat people, and assuming she understands english, it shouldn't be that hard.
Why would you encourage her not to eat people? You should instead direct her to eat only CERTAIN people, namely people who are a threat to you or (if you're kinda evil) are standing in your way to something you want. That way, you have a lifelong mate who is also basically a supernatural bodyguard, loyal assassin, and corpse disposal system.
On the siren having wings. I think you might have the wing evolution backwards. Sirens in terms of lore were beautiful women, often depicted with wings, who would use their songs to cause ships to crash. In some lore, those who failed to get a ship to crash would then throw themselves into the sea, where they presumably drowned. So we're talking pretty women with wings who moved to the seas, not pretty women who became mermaids first and THEN developed wings. My theory behind the whole "sirens being in the sea" comes from words of different languages sounding similar. The Greek word for "Siren" (Seirḗn) is very similar to the Latin word for Mermaid, "Syreni". I strongly believe that there was some sort of bleed-over on one end or the other and that's why the traditional feathered sirens aren't quite as commonly depicted. Whoever made this movie, I believe, was trying to combine the sea siren (mermaid) with the Greek Siren (flying beautiful woman).
Nah, u just have a theory that differs, which in the grand scheme of things is absolute SHITE . On the other hand Roanoke is absolute. So go theorize and research that!!
18000000% agree that there had to be a conflation of the Greek with the Latin The mermaid/fishy aspect is pretty recent in the grand scheme of things, and can be attributed to a medieval bestiary in the 13th century. Which is made even more interesting by the likelihood that the medieval bestiary writer/illustrator likely saw these two separate creatures with similar behaviors and was like "screw it, they're practically the same thing anyways, they can share a page" and just made them be the same creature. Throughout history it's been a sliding scale of mostly bird to woman, with the further back you go being more bird than woman, but as time goes on it became more woman until it was literally just women. The original version was a bird with a woman's head, then they gave the bird a set of yitties, then arms, whole torso, women with bird legs, women with bird feet, and finally just unclothed women. The unclothed women thing only really came around in the romantic era of painting if I remember right, before hand it was mainly bird women and the occasional mermaid. Anyways, bird women are great, we need more bird women depictions when referring to sirens, thanks for coming to my TED talk!!

It's absolutely amazing how you have this talent for taking lackluster movies that don't seem deeply thought-out, tie in actual biological processes, and make it seem like a cohesive movie with logical actions. Like, who would think the siren's song affects memories/make people "zone out" because auditory input ties into a part of the brain affecting memories and can induce seizures that make people not realize they were mentally checked out? I know I'm not saying this very coherently, long night. But just know it's appreciated that you can bring actual scientific facts up, and effortlessly weave it into B-level horror films, and seemingly give mediocre plots legitimacy. You have an amazing talent.
If i brought her to the family picnic, my entire family would just smile and say, "youre exactly the type hes been looking for. Welcome to the family."
5:10 Lol, I lived there, actually. Do not go there, it's a wasteland. I'm 90% sure they added a zero on the census, there's no way they have a thousand people.
Nah at least she isn't going to randomly divorce you out of nowhere, indoctrinate the children to hate you, then take all your money, and request child support.
I mean, there’s nothing special about human meat. You could probably wean her off of human and onto pork or something, though she probably needs to eat nose to tail.
To address the fact that the Siren is depicted with wings and resembles Succubi, in the old myths before Jason and the Argonauts movie altered their appearance, they were portrayed as winged women with powers similar to typical sirens, but they looked like harpies. As for the Succubi part, those creatures are said to entice and tempt men to cheat on their partners. So, I suppose between their enchanting powers and superstition, it's like you said: magic is just science that we don't understand yet.
She really did manage to pull off that 'something is weird about her, but not enough for anyone to care' character. Her acting made that whole scene. I'm not sure there would have been a Siren movie with anyone else in the part.
The end of this old have been the beginning of a horror sitcom of a married couple trying to desperately cling to normalcy and teach the siren/succubus to not murder everyone
I had something like this happen. Senses triggering memories thing and not the siren thing. But I was playing Dark Souls remastered with a buddy the other day. And hearing the Taurus Demon soundtrack caused a memory of my grandmother come to my room to see what I was doing. And she’s deaf in one ear so she didn’t hear the music till she was in my doorway. When She heard the music she started a little dance in doorway causing me to laugh then get crushed by the Taurus demon. Note my grandmother had passed nearly 2 months ago. So the memory had me smiling and almost full blown tears. I miss her greatly
Lilith is more of a progenitor of this kind of monsters. She isn't one specific type. She also has vampire powers and can sustain herself by drinking blood if I'm not wrong
Roanoke ace ally 💪 thanks so much for mentioning that not everyone has that desire. It’s small but it means a lot to have you, a guy whose entire channel is about breaking down the potential biology of things, a guy who is literally a biologist for a living, acknowledge that people like us exist :’) even if you weren’t thinking about us specifically, it still makes me really happy to hear

The whole tangent about memories and how a smell can trigger a memory is really cool. Every now and then I'll think back on a moment in my life and it will have the opposite effect instead of the smell triggering the memory the memory will trigger a smell even when the smell doesn't exist.
I saw the actress who played the Siren/succubus at a con! She seemed really sweet and is one of the only actors ive seen just go out and check out the con. Most people gave her space but whenever people came up to her she seemed really engaged.
@@JChang0114 possibly, but would be interesting to hear him give a more indepth analysis. Because whatever it is kinda doesn't make sense. In the movie he has a hard boiled egg that the monkey puts in his mouth, then gets dropped on the floor of the enclosure, and then is eaten. So where did it come from. Is it a zooonotic disease that was transferred from the monkey, was it something from the enclosures floor such as mixing with fecal matter? He also says that Frank, is the seventh person he has infected and each time he becomes more deadly and is able to kill faster each time, he describes a girl and ad elderly person, does this mean he can only infect people who have a suppressed immune system? I am just curious cause some things line up with the fever, some things line up with other diseases as well. He even mentions how ebola doesn't compare to what he is, but why. He also mentions wanting to be listed as one of the most deadly in medical journals alike. Does that mean he is a common virus that goes unnoticed, maybe mutated? I don't know but questions need answered.
I believe that it's a Marburg Virus since the relation to the monkeys, a sensitivity to being called the ebola virus (Marburg and Ebola belong to the same viral family, but Ebola is more famous), and it would cause the hemorrhagic fever as well
@@shawn1364I mean the character’s name is “Thrax” so most likely it’s anthrax. A serious fever is one of the listed symptoms, so that matches up. However Thrax is listed as a virus on the Wikipedia page, and anthrax is a bacteria, but that could just be Wikipedia being somewhat unreliable. Would be quite interesting for him to get really micro in the microbiology realm though
@wholesomesunbro1 The main character is also named “osmosis” but his role is pathogen-hunting as opposed to balancing the concentration of water-soluble solutions. 🤷♂️ Pretty sure the name “thrax” was intended just to sound cool, rather than being an indication of his disease name.

I visit New Orleans often, the last time I visited (1/2 years ago) I was walking with my friends down a sidewalk we’d walked TONS of times. This time, suddenly, I recalled as if it had just happened a memory from when I was really young and visiting New Orleans for the first time with my family. I wanna say it was the way the sun casted shadows from this tree that has been there since the memory(pre Katrina so this tree is sturdy), but I had to stop mid walk because the memory was so vivid and and my sister had to call me to catch up to our group. Everything just came together in perfect harmony to have me remember that exact section of the sidewalk that id all but assumed has been changed dozens of times since then especially after Katrina, but when i remembered I looked around and at least that piece of the sidewalk with the tree hadn’t changed in what had to be 20 years since that memory if not longer

15:01 As someone who experiences these..... I agree, its like real life lag happens. One moment a person can be chatting with ya and the next they've full on teleported to another position. There is no memory of the in between, no idea how much time has passed between the 2 points of where ya remember, ect. No day dream, not wondering mind, just a undetermined amount of time is lost. I've passed out and I remember the flash of memory and images that happened before I awoke again. But absents seizures..... its something else. One of the reasons I don't have a drivers license..... I'd hate for one to happen while I'm behind the wheel >.

The head split is a hard no
As a fellow cringe edgelord I love the blood. Watch Raw
Knowing what a lot of guys are like these days, I don't think they'd consider this to be a horror movie.
10/10 wife material.
I know the movie is called Siren but I more or less just thought she was a succubus. I mean she is called Lilith 😅
Fun fact, Tyrannosaurus rex had excellent vision, Jurassic Park was just wrong- their vision was certainly not based on movement. There’s a reason they dominated many evolutionary niches at various ages. Great video, as per usual! Still no fish dreams, just insane nosebleeds and weird pregnancy dreams where the baby gets dropped off in a Uber!
It's absolutely amazing how you have this talent for taking lackluster movies that don't seem deeply thought-out, tie in actual biological processes, and make it seem like a cohesive movie with logical actions. Like, who would think the siren's song affects memories/make people "zone out" because auditory input ties into a part of the brain affecting memories and can induce seizures that make people not realize they were mentally checked out? I know I'm not saying this very coherently, long night. But just know it's appreciated that you can bring actual scientific facts up, and effortlessly weave it into B-level horror films, and seemingly give mediocre plots legitimacy. You have an amazing talent.

Some people would consider the guy lucky.
I mean... He got his own yandere monster gf.
The siren reminds me of the creature from splice
Me: "LET'S PARTY!!!"
Friend: "But I'm tired."
Me: "Then have a nap, THEN COMMENCE WITH THE PARTY!!!"
If i brought her to the family picnic, my entire family would just smile and say, "youre exactly the type hes been looking for. Welcome to the family."
I'm pretty sure my family would only be surprised that I found someone slightly crazier than me.
Getting a hot Monster Wife for life seems like a pretty big win to me, not gonna lie.
don't succubi kill and eat their mates?

5:10 Lol, I lived there, actually. Do not go there, it's a wasteland. I'm 90% sure they added a zero on the census, there's no way they have a thousand people.
Jeepers Creepers is Florida Man got it. Dammit that makes too much sense.
Nah at least she isn't going to randomly divorce you out of nowhere, indoctrinate the children to hate you, then take all your money, and request child support.
My thinking. Bro cashed a jackpot
Lmao, go outside dude
I mean, there’s nothing special about human meat. You could probably wean her off of human and onto pork or something, though she probably needs to eat nose to tail.
you good, dude?
Pffft, pay the damn child support!
To address the fact that the Siren is depicted with wings and resembles Succubi, in the old myths before Jason and the Argonauts movie altered their appearance, they were portrayed as winged women with powers similar to typical sirens, but they looked like harpies. As for the Succubi part, those creatures are said to entice and tempt men to cheat on their partners. So, I suppose between their enchanting powers and superstition, it's like you said: magic is just science that we don't understand yet.
“A dune worm” 🤣
Hey , at least they have psychedelic fluid
aren't their teeth and scales also basically razor sharp glass shards?
@@thedarkgenious7967 thats what the shield is for ;v
Hannah Fierman was so good in "V/H/S" someone cast her as a vampire/siren/crazy beech again? Cool
She really did manage to pull off that 'something is weird about her, but not enough for anyone to care' character. Her acting made that whole scene. I'm not sure there would have been a Siren movie with anyone else in the part.
Hey at least she's giving you a *nice* song to listen to.
Tali is the BEST girl.

Had no idea V/H/S got spinoffs, but very glad to see this was the part of it that got one. It was probably the only segment that deserved one.
Yea Siren was the best of the 2 spinoffs. No surprise it came from the best V/H/S of the series too. Still waiting for Beyond which is soon.

The end of this old have been the beginning of a horror sitcom of a married couple trying to desperately cling to normalcy and teach the siren/succubus to not murder everyone
I had something like this happen. Senses triggering memories thing and not the siren thing.
But I was playing Dark Souls remastered with a buddy the other day. And hearing the Taurus Demon soundtrack caused a memory of my grandmother come to my room to see what I was doing. And she’s deaf in one ear so she didn’t hear the music till she was in my doorway. When She heard the music she started a little dance in doorway causing me to laugh then get crushed by the Taurus demon.
Note my grandmother had passed nearly 2 months ago. So the memory had me smiling and almost full blown tears. I miss her greatly
I can fix her i swear
Pretty sure Lilith is a succubus. Not a siren.
Lilith is more of a progenitor of this kind of monsters. She isn't one specific type. She also has vampire powers and can sustain herself by drinking blood if I'm not wrong
Who is lilith??

Roanoke ace ally 💪 thanks so much for mentioning that not everyone has that desire. It’s small but it means a lot to have you, a guy whose entire channel is about breaking down the potential biology of things, a guy who is literally a biologist for a living, acknowledge that people like us exist :’) even if you weren’t thinking about us specifically, it still makes me really happy to hear
Probably better than the chick from 'Ruin'
Oh yes.
Hey jacksonville native here I love that you mentioned us lol its hell here
Yes Humansville Missouri is real place. Very human in design & desighned by human for Humans to live. Full of humans & a lots of fun. YOU should visit with family, friends, Associates, Acquaintances, Strangers as well as Hitchhikers. the more the merrier as WE Humans say. Don't forget your skin suit at home.
i lost my skin suit do by any chance sell and ship spares so that i may visit this very human location?
But mine is at the Cleaners!
You don't have one? Don't worry at Humansville Missouri we don't Judge Fellow Humans
All the single women reading the men's comment about how they'd wife up a siren must be wondering "it cant be that easy. What am I doing wrong then?"
They just got to actually treat a man well. Its not rocket science. Even a kinda ugly chick can get a hot dude if she is just nice and loyal.
Turn into a flying mythical monogamous beast with huge teeth and a tail, easy
11:30 no man. You just need to relax a bit. Meditate and chill. You’ve been doing so much so fast. You need to decompress.
The whole tangent about memories and how a smell can trigger a memory is really cool. Every now and then I'll think back on a moment in my life and it will have the opposite effect instead of the smell triggering the memory the memory will trigger a smell even when the smell doesn't exist.
Everything in vhs and siren suggest lily would have been okay with either guy she encountered but their rejection of her is what turned her violent.
I saw the actress who played the Siren/succubus at a con! She seemed really sweet and is one of the only actors ive seen just go out and check out the con. Most people gave her space but whenever people came up to her she seemed really engaged.
Finally caught when it's posted. But another video where I request you to cover the "red death" virus from Osmosis Jones.
Red Death was probably some viral hemorrhagic fever.
@@JChang0114 possibly, but would be interesting to hear him give a more indepth analysis. Because whatever it is kinda doesn't make sense. In the movie he has a hard boiled egg that the monkey puts in his mouth, then gets dropped on the floor of the enclosure, and then is eaten. So where did it come from. Is it a zooonotic disease that was transferred from the monkey, was it something from the enclosures floor such as mixing with fecal matter? He also says that Frank, is the seventh person he has infected and each time he becomes more deadly and is able to kill faster each time, he describes a girl and ad elderly person, does this mean he can only infect people who have a suppressed immune system? I am just curious cause some things line up with the fever, some things line up with other diseases as well. He even mentions how ebola doesn't compare to what he is, but why. He also mentions wanting to be listed as one of the most deadly in medical journals alike. Does that mean he is a common virus that goes unnoticed, maybe mutated? I don't know but questions need answered.
I believe that it's a Marburg Virus since the relation to the monkeys, a sensitivity to being called the ebola virus (Marburg and Ebola belong to the same viral family, but Ebola is more famous), and it would cause the hemorrhagic fever as well
@@shawn1364I mean the character’s name is “Thrax” so most likely it’s anthrax. A serious fever is one of the listed symptoms, so that matches up. However Thrax is listed as a virus on the Wikipedia page, and anthrax is a bacteria, but that could just be Wikipedia being somewhat unreliable. Would be quite interesting for him to get really micro in the microbiology realm though
@wholesomesunbro1 The main character is also named “osmosis” but his role is pathogen-hunting as opposed to balancing the concentration of water-soluble solutions. 🤷♂️
Pretty sure the name “thrax” was intended just to sound cool, rather than being an indication of his disease name.

Love that you covered this! She’s definitely an amalgamation of a few different creatures but when I first saw V.H.S. way back when I assumed she was similar to an Aswang or Manananggal (from the self-segmenting. Great video!

don't say that I won't be attracted to her, mates for life: check, can fight for herself: check, probably won't be upset if we go out for bloody steak: check, might be able to join in my world conquest power trip: check, she has wings so she can fly me over obstacles: check, 10/10 in my book.

I visit New Orleans often, the last time I visited (1/2 years ago) I was walking with my friends down a sidewalk we’d walked TONS of times. This time, suddenly, I recalled as if it had just happened a memory from when I was really young and visiting New Orleans for the first time with my family. I wanna say it was the way the sun casted shadows from this tree that has been there since the memory(pre Katrina so this tree is sturdy), but I had to stop mid walk because the memory was so vivid and and my sister had to call me to catch up to our group. Everything just came together in perfect harmony to have me remember that exact section of the sidewalk that id all but assumed has been changed dozens of times since then especially after Katrina, but when i remembered I looked around and at least that piece of the sidewalk with the tree hadn’t changed in what had to be 20 years since that memory if not longer
Sighs *unzips pants
Dude! Noooooo!
Don't do it! bro don't do it! Shit man down! MAN DOWN!
Oh hell naw
HELL YEAH
I think the amputees represent the idea of the loss of something (i.e. the soul), but that's just my half baked thought on the subject.

A note from a Jacksonville native: Jacksonville is among the most BORING places on earth. I’ve partied in hundreds of cities in dozens of countries across five continents, and nothing that can accurately be called a city was more boring.
Try Lake Butler, for boring. That town would win the "World's Most Boring" trophy every time. At least Jaxs has things to do, besides fing livestock and mudbogging

As someone who experiences these..... I agree, its like real life lag happens. One moment a person can be chatting with ya and the next they've full on teleported to another position. There is no memory of the in between, no idea how much time has passed between the 2 points of where ya remember, ect. No day dream, not wondering mind, just a undetermined amount of time is lost.
I've passed out and I remember the flash of memory and images that happened before I awoke again. But absents seizures..... its something else. One of the reasons I don't have a drivers license..... I'd hate for one to happen while I'm behind the wheel >.
Sorry to have to say this guys, but your bachelor party is not your last night of freedom. You've been committed since you proposed before you proposed was your last night of freedom
You lost your freedom the moment you started a relationship lol
based.
Or, hear me out, don't get into a relationship with a person if you still feel the urge for "freedom".
It's not a big deal, 99% of people have felt the urge to sow their wild oats. There's nothing wrong with exploring that until it's out of your system and then settling down with a person you love above all others
@@kimberlyrichardson5943 part of what you said is true and the other part of it's not great advice for anybody
Just because you can't physically see the damage done by having a high body count doesn't mean it doesn't do any damage
Nah, you're committed once you've entered a relationship with someone.
