My take on this movie has always been a little poetic. This girl, who was probably completely innocent, was tortured in an absolutely nightmarish fashion until she was burned alive. The amount of evil that was done to her CREATED something equally evil, regardless of her original innocence. And even then she wasn't given the peace of death, trapped in her own corpse able to feel every poke and prod, every autopsy, still unable to defend herself. How could anyone hold any love for humanity after what's been done to her?
I find your take on this movie to be fantastic and one of the best theories I’ve heard about it. That’s going to be in my mind the next time I watch this. So, thank you!
There's a similar tale coming from the granddaughter or something from a lady who was hunted down in either the Salem trials or the original trials across the pond. An older lady in a village was accused of witchcraft, mistreated, abused, bullied, and eventually sent to trial. At the trial she was actually found innocent and sent back to her village. The night she went back she was hunted down, beat nearly to death and hung in a tree by the village people. Legend has it that her last words as she was dragged up the tree were, "I wasn't a witch, but you've created one."
Saw someone else point it out why the son died in the comments and I had a similar thought So I’m typing it here. In the other comment it said the son died bc he interrupted the transformation. I believe Jane Doe was taking the fathers life force to bring herself back. Each thing that broke on the father healed Jane Doe, even when his eyes were going grey the color in her eyes were coming back. I think she would’ve left the son alone like the father asked her to but bc the son killed the father it went against her so she killed him.
@@pauldee1102 well yea that’s obvious lol it’s why I made the statement. I’m not placing blame I’m simply pointing out what actually happened and the lack of knowledge they had in the situation. I’m sure if the father thought that she would kill his son for stopping her transformation (or if he was aware a transformation was taking place at all) he wouldn’t have asked his son to do it.
@@pauldee1102 i think he was asking him to cut off his tongue like they did to her, but his son didn't do that and instead cut his misery short and killed him.
This movie always hit me as an amazing metaphor for female trauma. It’s often hidden and the nature of it doesn’t make sense to a lot of men who are used to externalizing their emotions. So, they literally cut her open even after she screams out over the radio. They needed to see it to believe her, which made it so they defiled her body further. Her putting them through it all was her version of saying, “You want to see it? Fine. I’ll make you experience it.” The father-son storyline also broke my heart. Such a great movie.
Thank you! I’ve never seen this but any reaction I’ve seen I do wonder what was the meaning behind this. This makes the most sense. I thought it would be she was alive the entire time but tortured to a point of comatose or made to seem dead…? and they were slowly killing her. But again, this synopsis makes a lot of sense
I love how you described this. That’s absolutely right on the most money. The next time I watch it I will certainly be watching it from your point of view. So, thank you! Lol
The fact that the actress for Jane Doe (Olwen Kelly) just laid there for pretty much the entirety of the film is amazing. The dedication and the ability to not shift around or blink or flinch. I could never. I think my only question, is why was the girlfriend and son punished? Did he die because he interrupted the transfer of life? And why was the girlfriend down there? She had left and had had nothing to do with anything. Those things are really my only nitpick.
And I know she was supposed to come and pick him up, but why would JD let her in? Or was she outside the influence of the spirit bubble and just happened in?
You're pretty much correct... JD altered their perception of reality... None of the supernatural things actually happened. Each of them technically killed themselves and each other...
@@JessLoveyy I know he told her to come back, I’m more curious as to which direction she wandered down and why JD let her back in. She was obviously outside and then came inside during the whole living dead debacle. The previous family that had been killed were all contained within the house, the cops even said they looked like they were trying to get out, but his girlfriend was already out, meaning either JD purposely let her in or there is an area of effect JD’s magic ghost bubble has that anyone can just waltz into. I was curious as to how that works.
This is one of all time fav horror films. It's so eerie, creepy and unsettling. Fun fact: The director picked the actress for Jane Doe, because she had an extensive yoga background, and could control her breathing/movements/remain still. She's an Irish model/actor...
I have a niece that’s a forensic pathologist and she’s certainly entertained us with some startling stories. She never tells us the name of the person and she never jokes about it. However, sometimes her stories are actually funny and some are just very sweet too.
Dudes, I lost it when you showed the woman who said "That motherf*cker back there is not real" and left the plane. Damn, I wish you two were my brothers lmaa. You guys have me rolling every time I watch your videos XD
Honestly, I'm curious if she would have let the son go if he didn't kill his father. She was getting better and was stopped before it was completed. Thus, giving her reason to go after the son next. Since she did actually move this time (as she hadn't throughout the entire movie and just through hallucinations), she must have healed significantly from what was taken.
Have you seen the show "Hannibal" with Mads Mikkelsen and Hugh Dancy? It's not really horror, more like thriller and gore, but you might like it. Their relationship is something else.
@@thedepressedfatguy4070it was not her fault as she was trapped and sacrificed that way. honestly. neither is at fault. she was protecting herself and they were doing their job. it’s just unfortunate.
The cop singing genuinely creeps the fuck out of me 😳😩 I was watching you guys reaction in bed last night - in the pitch black - and had to close the video half way through cuz this movie creeps me out so bad!
this movie was actually a big surprise for me i found it during a search for horror movie and i stunbble on it i wasn't expecting much i just watch it cause i was bored and a bit tired so i was like ok a horror movie that's not gonna be good but it's alright cause i was tired idk maybe 15 minutes later i was totally awake and "captivated" if i can say bc that was so different but in a really good way this movie is really really good i was on the edge of my seats the last 30 minutes
I watched this 4 times because it's scary good like the witchcraft twist and the ending is way creepier and good. I remember the time when we watched it with my grandma because she loves scary movies too much but this one made her throw up and scared coming from a Mexican family, we don't deal with witchcraft or la brujas or la santeria.
i've been following multiple horror reaction channels for months now and i've noticed out of all my notifications, I get the most excited when your channel posts a new video
I first watched this movie. When it was free on RUclips at 2 am. And let me tell you I was terrified and paranoid the whole night. Glad y’all are watching it now ❤😂
I'm so glad both of you enjoyed this. Such an original story. And father and son so believable. Which made it more scary. I hated peek a boo with bell ringer corpses!!! Yikes!! Thank you!!!
Splendid reaction. This movie delivers thrills and more. TAOJD was one of the best 2010 horror movies. And it is horrifying stuff, isn't it, dearies? The claustrophobic, remote and eerie setting is perfect. Have to say, I have rarely felt genuine chills, and the hairs on my neck reaching outward, during a scary flick ... but when the man started singing that "Let the Sun Shine In" song behind the cellar door, that did it for me. (Oh, and the little bell dinging also got to me, LOL.) I remember that song in reruns of "The Flintstones" on cable TV in an episode when the little kids were suddenly able somehow to sing perfectly. This particular song pops up every once in a while in cinema; I remember a 2004 John Waters movie, "A Dirty Shame", that used it. Anyway, thanks for sharing your experience! You guys are awesone. You use those brief comedy "inserts" from videos and movies sparingly, which is good--- you're not relying on them like other RUclips hosts do. Keep up the good work.
I wish y’all knew how much I appreciate your channel. I’m a horror fanatic! I’m retired so I watch about 4 or 5 horror movies a day. All kinds of horror movies. I loved this movie. It was different and interesting and kept me guessing. And while Emile Hirsh is a cutie I think Brian Cox is a studly older gentleman. I enjoyed y’alls reactions and commentary as always. Keep up the great work!
Movie recommendation for you to react to: LIGHTS OUT (2016), simple but efficient horror movie to leave you tense from start to finish, you will enjoy.
Honestly i normally watch horror movies when i'm writing or doing art (for background noise) but this one I was so horrified and captivated the entire time, i loved every moment of it. this to me is an amazing horror movie.
I used to live in an apartment part of the family funeral home when I was little. There is a smell I guess but I grew up with it so I’m used to it. Also lol “OMG it’s almost like a cup hole” 😂
This movie really needs either a sequel or a prequel, I've been begging for one for ages. It's such a good horror film, a perfect example of that genre, less of a thriller than I'm used to watching. There may not be a true, traditional "hell", or a separate realm/parallel universe made/designated for souls in this movie's world. Whoever prepared her body wanted to punish her as well as lock away her powers, so they decided to make her a kind of "hell" where she's forced to be immobile & eternally vulnerable to external harm, forever defenseless and abandoned/alone. And I tend to think that her trauma and anger and pain developed into a raw(er) will [think Violet from The Haunting of Bly Manor], magnifying her inherent abilities the more time passed until she, kinda like a virus or plague demon, was invited unknowingly yet with no clear consent from herself, into living persons' lives. In other words, she became less herself or less a person, and more traumatized, malignant will itself. One commentator here said that men externalize their feelings, and I think that their point about the men here violating her body paralleling men not understanding internalized female trauma may inform of men here doing that excavation to hide away from their own pain, because they are giving order to a human-made-object when they do so, channeling and ignoring their own feelings. Going by how well prepared her spiritual jail was made, I feel there's a strong chance *EDIT* --> A viewer could look at JD just being malicious for its own sake, even before she was condemned or ostracized--whether it's because she was treated as such by her community and condemned or she was actually already a horrible person who other horrible people condemned. OR they could look at how her toe twitched at the end, how she killed the son right after he stopped her from giving the curse to the father, how to essentially mind-fucked them in the mis-kill with the son's gf dying and her bringing the dead to creep after them, some viewers can create an idea of her targeting the living to resurrect herself. It depends on whether writers would want to genre-bend a little and introduce more lore: whether she was an active necromancer when living or just an ordinary magic user of whatever skill and control level who happened to become more of a necromancer after the years passed as a living corpse AND what necromancing (in the movie's world and history) entails/how necromancers work their magic. Is necromancy a neutral and scary power, or an inherently destructive one that needs the user to hurt others and choose to chip off their empathy to use it better? She could have become more sadistic with each passing decade, being locked in with her physical and emotional pain with no way out and thus fueling more of that vengeful desire. It can blur into a maliciousness to just cause pain to feel like she's in control, not really to target those who harmed her all those yrs ago, nor their descendants (since she is supposedly far from her original home, time and space wise). At first, I felt "Jane Doe" and the father shared different sorts of self-entrapment and suppressing inner turmoils in that the father intentionally suspended himself in a state of self-defying, silent grief (refusing to commiserate with his son about his mom his wife's pain and loss more and unwilling to admit or express that he needed his son so he wouldn't have to face both the grief and his emotional self-isolation), while JD was forcibly put into a suspended state of eternal pain by others afraid of her power. The father rejects going outside of his own house (in contrast to his son, who doesn't want to leave him alone, and abandon him but is planning to leave bc of emotional fatigue and his own way of moving on when his dad won't really commiserate). While the dead definitely has "reduced" himself in a sort of way, he has much more choice in the matter. While I definitely still think this has some truth to it, it wasn't until Cody suggested that the mother who killed herself also had shared/inversed traits with JD. The mother, as Cody said, dealt with her own pain silently while she was still alive, obviously severely depressed and having felt alone despite having her husband and son. The mom/wife tried all her life to live through her unwell mental health, implying much less choice. That the father rendered himself powerless in a way by choosing to not confront his loss or at least move more forward with it, while JD was tortured against her will and forced from a community's well of love (whatever they--those Salem inhabitants--refused to give her in means of grace and care). Of course, the differences are that the dad was alive while JD is suspended in a life-death limbo, with her body being dead-alive and her spirit still inhabiting it but unable to affect/observe the world as a living person could. Both mother and JD were locked in their own sort of "hells", with "hell" being that helpless internal pain. Mom, however, has more likely either found peace in oblivion, started over in a new life (reincarnation), or a set place for dead people's souls--whichever one decides to create for this world. When JD was transferring her curse to the dad after he pleaded with her to leave his son--aka, he was sacrificing himself to save said son--I was thinking that she had been always trying to get herself resurrected instead of what Cody said about her trying to put herself out of her misery and finally die, but Cody's thoughts better coincide with that theme of suspense I was thinking of. And she may have killed the son (or killed him quicker) because he stopped the process. The son killed the dad to "save" him from that fate, thus kinda abandoning her to the centuries-one she was trying to get rid of. And the son did it for obvious love. Something she has no access to now after all who she would have known is gone, and maybe she never had something like that in the 1st place. There is another sort of irony in that, since in that act of love, the son fulfilled both that self-"death" the father inflicted on himself AND he denied JD her own peace by ensuring his dad would not end up exactly like her and take her curse. So the son kinda "abandoned"/left her to suffer/enabled her imprisonment as well in protecting his dad after having cut her open in ht first place, despite him wanting to leave earlier (he still wished to continue when they were both safer in the morning, as he felt and continued when his dad refused). Not only did he disallow whatever kind of freedom she sought, his act mimics the abandonment her community performed, even though it was definitely him just trying to save his dad. Paradox.
Soo I love this movie. It was explained but what happened was the girl was tortured, and by some kind of magic became trapped in her own body and all that happened were ways of people trying to stop her. They couldn’t, so they buried her. And she was dormant. She doesn’t want people to operate on her because she can literally feel everything. She sent them multiple warnings like interfering with the radio and the storm.
The anonymous names change by region it usually has something to do with historical events or frequency of a name. A quick google search says that John/Jane Doe started being used in the middle ages and the exact reason seems to be to vague for there to be much mention of possibilities. But the practice of a pseudo name for unknown people is much older. In modern times few countries use them in a legal sense but the US is uniquely behind the times in many ways, such as the British abolishing slavery and preparing to do so in their colonies being one of the reasons for the US revolution. A great example of another name taking over in this practice is John Smith which on the public level is used much more then John Doe and will probably fully replace it at some point.
My first video. I love y'all's energy; I got a minute in and was like "Oh, I'm going to love this channel." And immediately wanted to leave a comment and subscribe 💜
Apparently the reason why the son wasn't let go because he ended the healing process, so the witch ended up taking him to because he broke the deal. Aka putting him out of misery and the witch singing the lullaby
I remember randomly watching this movie when it got put on Netflix I went in completely blind not knowing anything about it. It is to this day one of my favorite horror movies especially in the supernatural category. With the way it ended I’m surprised we have gotten a second one 😭
5:59 The people who do autopsies are coroners or medical examiners, and they do not embalm the bodies. Their purpose is to find the cause of death via autopsy. Morticians embalm bodies, and only receive the body after a coroner or ME does an autopsy on it (if determined necessary). You need a medical license to be an ME/ Coroner so I’ve never come across an ME office at someones house, that would more likely be a mortician.
The answer to why we use john/Jane doe is in England they used it as a substitute for a legal name. It then morphed into a term used for the common man/woman. Also the term Jane doe didn't come about until the 1930s
I absolutely love you guys. Seriously one of my favorite reaction channels. Amazing personalities! Thank you for keeping me entertained during my work day. It helps the day go by faster! 😊
My favorite horror movie. I love all of the characters. Something about a burning vengeful feminine entity moves me. I know she’s the villain. But as someone who has experienced graphic violence there’s a point in healing that just feels like fury. She became an unstoppable evil by what they did to her. And the lovely dad taking the pain from her makes me think… almost like an analogy for hurting the innocent people around you after being hurt yourself. The only thing I hated about this movie was the cat dying 🤣 totally unnecessary. She’s the perfect horror villain without having to lift a finger. And props to the actress.
I didn’t see anyone comment this but as someone who’s worked in hospitals and close to morgues I can say that no the smell of bodies isn’t around. Morgues are cold to slow decomposition, and heavily ventilated. Plus the amount of cleaning also helps to stave off smells. So usually they just smell like bleach. If a smelly body comes in, deodorizers can be used, and it doesn’t really travel. Also I get people getting squeamish, but like im just thinking about an actual autopsy and it’s like ‘yeah about right’
Okay… I have seen this movie before. But apparently I blocked a lot of it out because watching you guys watch this freaked me out. Or maybe I was just hiding behind a pillow for those scenes 😂
I love this movie. A surprisingly good horror film that flew under a ton of people’s radar. I wonder if it was the inspiration for the game “The Mortuary Assistant” because it’s fairly similar.
I always felt like Autopsy of Jane Doe and Oculus could be matched up together. Both movies are about two family members dealing with something supernatural. They even hit some similar plot points. I personally preferred Jane Doe, though for its creepiness. Spoilers: Edit: I think you already point this out at 30:52 but, yes, in both Autopsy and Oculus a spouse accidentally gets involved and killed.
I ❤ you both Thank you so much for your channel. I watch along with you when I’m home alone to make me feel safer than watching alone 😂 But this one still really freaked me out 😱
Fun fact: The actress that played Jane Doe, was cast because she had an extensive background in yoga, and could remain motionless for long periods. So those close ups of her face and body was actually her and not a prop.
I love this film so much- it’s just so atmospheric & creepy!! Y’all need to react to The Exorcism of Emily Rose…. Such an underrated movie, and the vibes are very similar to Jane Doe. Love you guys!!❤
This is a good movie on a truly miniscule budget. Not to make you regret creating your channel, but I would add The Descent, The Thing, and Pandorum to your list.
This was the first time I’ve seen Serg clutch onto Cody’s shoulder. I loved it! In the State of Texas, the law is if you are not going to be embalmed, you have to be buried within 24 hours of clinical death. That’s what my mom did. And that is what I am going to do also after seeing this film! It’s in my top 3 horror films of all time. I had requested this film for Cody… now it’s your turn Surg… you asked for gore, here it is. “Stake Land”. It is the best vampire film that you’ve never seen. It’s not like any other of its kind. The acting, the score, the locations, the horrific evil gore. I can’t say enough about this film without giving anything away, except that you may want a bucket next to you. I will tell you this, though. Kelly McGillis, who was the female lead in “Top Gun” is in this. She should have been nominated for Best Supporting Actress in this film. It is best acting that I’ve ever seen. She needed to be in more scenes! (and I’m glad she came out as a lesbian. Good for her and good for our community!). PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE react to this. With love and prayers, hugs and kisses… Watson
the fact that i watched this with my kid nephew at my sisters house, i thought it would be a fun horror movie to watch BUT NVM I GUESS 😭😭😭 At least he had fun with me 😭😭😭
It took me three attemps to finish this movie not because I was scared watching a horror movie... But because of the fact that I can see stuff people would label as weird and not real 😂 and encountered stuff like witchcraft and possesions.
27:59 lmaooo 😅 Omg…Cody’s lil yelp right here made me laugh *SOOO* hard 😂 I’m really sorry that you’re trauma brought me laughter I totally get it though…this movie is pretty effin scary to me also. There are so many “oh F nah!” moments in this movie 😂😂😂😂
I this is the first video i see of y'alls and it's cuz you're one of the few big channels I've seen so this movie! I knew from the bumping into of y'all's , it was gone be good. And y'all DELIVERED!

Legend has it that her last words as she was dragged up the tree were, "I wasn't a witch, but you've created one."
You enjoy it when lots of humans die then? She could kill herself. Destroy her corpse. Her focus and control was that refined. Yet she chose not too.
They could have totally did this movie like the Fear Street movies. Starting in present day, and each movie going back and back...

one of the things that makes this movie extra creepy is that most of the film is just 2 people (and one corpse) ,the feeling of isolation
They should make a prequel of this movie to better know her back story and what happened to her previous victims.

And I get the symbolism behind stuff. But she is still the bad guy in this one She is a one now that deserves more than death.
I say she deserves more than death. Because anyone who kills and hurts people that had nothing to do with what happened to them deserves that.
No.

I'm so glad both of you enjoyed this. Such an original story. And father and son so believable. Which made it more scary. I hated peek a boo with bell ringer corpses!!! Yikes!! Thank you!!!
Feels illegal to be this early, but I'm SO hyped!! Love your videos so much!!!
I loved this movie as a teen! It was my guilty pleasure not gonna lie. The big reveal and the twist got me so damn bad!!
Yoooo i never got the subtext of the mom suffering in silence being analagous to jane doe. Amazing observation
Movie suggestion : The Dark and the wicked is such an underrated horror movie that came out in 2020. So well done, the plot, the acting, everything.
oh i had nightmares with this one
yesss its so good
I really enjoyed that movie.
Oh Lordy!!!! I had to stop and call my big sis when watching that movie!!! And I was 60 at the time lol
@@tracydecker-hn4sf i was terrified!
Splendid reaction. This movie delivers thrills and more. TAOJD was one of the best 2010 horror movies. And it is horrifying stuff, isn't it, dearies? The claustrophobic, remote and eerie setting is perfect. Have to say, I have rarely felt genuine chills, and the hairs on my neck reaching outward, during a scary flick ... but when the man started singing that "Let the Sun Shine In" song behind the cellar door, that did it for me. (Oh, and the little bell dinging also got to me, LOL.) I remember that song in reruns of "The Flintstones" on cable TV in an episode when the little kids were suddenly able somehow to sing perfectly. This particular song pops up every once in a while in cinema; I remember a 2004 John Waters movie, "A Dirty Shame", that used it. Anyway, thanks for sharing your experience! You guys are awesone. You use those brief comedy "inserts" from videos and movies sparingly, which is good--- you're not relying on them like other RUclips hosts do. Keep up the good work.
I wish y’all knew how much I appreciate your channel. I’m a horror fanatic! I’m retired so I watch about 4 or 5 horror movies a day. All kinds of horror movies. I loved this movie. It was different and interesting and kept me guessing. And while Emile Hirsh is a cutie I think Brian Cox is a studly older gentleman. I enjoyed y’alls reactions and commentary as always. Keep up the great work!
And that is why The Autopsy of Jane Doe is one of my favorite movies of all time.
Movie recommendation for you to react to: LIGHTS OUT (2016), simple but efficient horror movie to leave you tense from start to finish, you will enjoy.
The places this could've gone, but never did. This movie is so darn good I just want more from Jane the Bro Doe.
Honestly i normally watch horror movies when i'm writing or doing art (for background noise) but this one I was so horrified and captivated the entire time, i loved every moment of it. this to me is an amazing horror movie.
I used to live in an apartment part of the family funeral home when I was little. There is a smell I guess but I grew up with it so I’m used to it.
Also lol “OMG it’s almost like a cup hole” 😂
Definitely a sour dull smell, there was a funeral home next door to my highschool. Made lunch time hard
This movie really needs either a sequel or a prequel, I've been begging for one for ages. It's such a good horror film, a perfect example of that genre, less of a thriller than I'm used to watching. There may not be a true, traditional "hell", or a separate realm/parallel universe made/designated for souls in this movie's world. Whoever prepared her body wanted to punish her as well as lock away her powers, so they decided to make her a kind of "hell" where she's forced to be immobile & eternally vulnerable to external harm, forever defenseless and abandoned/alone. And I tend to think that her trauma and anger and pain developed into a raw(er) will [think Violet from The Haunting of Bly Manor], magnifying her inherent abilities the more time passed until she, kinda like a virus or plague demon, was invited unknowingly yet with no clear consent from herself, into living persons' lives. In other words, she became less herself or less a person, and more traumatized, malignant will itself. One commentator here said that men externalize their feelings, and I think that their point about the men here violating her body paralleling men not understanding internalized female trauma may inform of men here doing that excavation to hide away from their own pain, because they are giving order to a human-made-object when they do so, channeling and ignoring their own feelings.
Going by how well prepared her spiritual jail was made, I feel there's a strong chance
*EDIT* --> A viewer could look at JD just being malicious for its own sake, even before she was condemned or ostracized--whether it's because she was treated as such by her community and condemned or she was actually already a horrible person who other horrible people condemned. OR they could look at how her toe twitched at the end, how she killed the son right after he stopped her from giving the curse to the father, how to essentially mind-fucked them in the mis-kill with the son's gf dying and her bringing the dead to creep after them, some viewers can create an idea of her targeting the living to resurrect herself. It depends on whether writers would want to genre-bend a little and introduce more lore: whether she was an active necromancer when living or just an ordinary magic user of whatever skill and control level who happened to become more of a necromancer after the years passed as a living corpse AND what necromancing (in the movie's world and history) entails/how necromancers work their magic. Is necromancy a neutral and scary power, or an inherently destructive one that needs the user to hurt others and choose to chip off their empathy to use it better? She could have become more sadistic with each passing decade, being locked in with her physical and emotional pain with no way out and thus fueling more of that vengeful desire. It can blur into a maliciousness to just cause pain to feel like she's in control, not really to target those who harmed her all those yrs ago, nor their descendants (since she is supposedly far from her original home, time and space wise).
At first, I felt "Jane Doe" and the father shared different sorts of self-entrapment and suppressing inner turmoils in that the father intentionally suspended himself in a state of self-defying, silent grief (refusing to commiserate with his son about his mom his wife's pain and loss more and unwilling to admit or express that he needed his son so he wouldn't have to face both the grief and his emotional self-isolation), while JD was forcibly put into a suspended state of eternal pain by others afraid of her power. The father rejects going outside of his own house (in contrast to his son, who doesn't want to leave him alone, and abandon him but is planning to leave bc of emotional fatigue and his own way of moving on when his dad won't really commiserate). While the dead definitely has "reduced" himself in a sort of way, he has much more choice in the matter. While I definitely still think this has some truth to it, it wasn't until Cody suggested that the mother who killed herself also had shared/inversed traits with JD. The mother, as Cody said, dealt with her own pain silently while she was still alive, obviously severely depressed and having felt alone despite having her husband and son. The mom/wife tried all her life to live through her unwell mental health, implying much less choice. That the father rendered himself powerless in a way by choosing to not confront his loss or at least move more forward with it, while JD was tortured against her will and forced from a community's well of love (whatever they--those Salem inhabitants--refused to give her in means of grace and care). Of course, the differences are that the dad was alive while JD is suspended in a life-death limbo, with her body being dead-alive and her spirit still inhabiting it but unable to affect/observe the world as a living person could. Both mother and JD were locked in their own sort of "hells", with "hell" being that helpless internal pain. Mom, however, has more likely either found peace in oblivion, started over in a new life (reincarnation), or a set place for dead people's souls--whichever one decides to create for this world.
When JD was transferring her curse to the dad after he pleaded with her to leave his son--aka, he was sacrificing himself to save said son--I was thinking that she had been always trying to get herself resurrected instead of what Cody said about her trying to put herself out of her misery and finally die, but Cody's thoughts better coincide with that theme of suspense I was thinking of. And she may have killed the son (or killed him quicker) because he stopped the process. The son killed the dad to "save" him from that fate, thus kinda abandoning her to the centuries-one she was trying to get rid of. And the son did it for obvious love. Something she has no access to now after all who she would have known is gone, and maybe she never had something like that in the 1st place. There is another sort of irony in that, since in that act of love, the son fulfilled both that self-"death" the father inflicted on himself AND he denied JD her own peace by ensuring his dad would not end up exactly like her and take her curse. So the son kinda "abandoned"/left her to suffer/enabled her imprisonment as well in protecting his dad after having cut her open in ht first place, despite him wanting to leave earlier (he still wished to continue when they were both safer in the morning, as he felt and continued when his dad refused). Not only did he disallow whatever kind of freedom she sought, his act mimics the abandonment her community performed, even though it was definitely him just trying to save his dad. Paradox.
Soo I love this movie.
It was explained but what happened was the girl was tortured, and by some kind of magic became trapped in her own body and all that happened were ways of people trying to stop her. They couldn’t, so they buried her. And she was dormant. She doesn’t want people to operate on her because she can literally feel everything.
She sent them multiple warnings like interfering with the radio and the storm.
The anonymous names change by region it usually has something to do with historical events or frequency of a name. A quick google search says that John/Jane Doe started being used in the middle ages and the exact reason seems to be to vague for there to be much mention of possibilities. But the practice of a pseudo name for unknown people is much older.
In modern times few countries use them in a legal sense but the US is uniquely behind the times in many ways, such as the British abolishing slavery and preparing to do so in their colonies being one of the reasons for the US revolution.
A great example of another name taking over in this practice is John Smith which on the public level is used much more then John Doe and will probably fully replace it at some point.
Embalming doesn’t stop the decomposition process but in reality it just slows it down enough to hold a funeral service.
13:52 - Her lines must have been so difficult to learn.
No but she is amazing!!
My first video. I love y'all's energy; I got a minute in and was like "Oh, I'm going to love this channel." And immediately wanted to leave a comment and subscribe 💜
Apparently the reason why the son wasn't let go because he ended the healing process, so the witch ended up taking him to because he broke the deal. Aka putting him out of misery and the witch singing the lullaby
🎉
I remember randomly watching this movie when it got put on Netflix I went in completely blind not knowing anything about it. It is to this day one of my favorite horror movies especially in the supernatural category. With the way it ended I’m surprised we have gotten a second one 😭
5:59 The people who do autopsies are coroners or medical examiners, and they do not embalm the bodies. Their purpose is to find the cause of death via autopsy. Morticians embalm bodies, and only receive the body after a coroner or ME does an autopsy on it (if determined necessary). You need a medical license to be an ME/ Coroner so I’ve never come across an ME office at someones house, that would more likely be a mortician.
The answer to why we use john/Jane doe is in England they used it as a substitute for a legal name. It then morphed into a term used for the common man/woman. Also the term Jane doe didn't come about until the 1930s
I absolutely love you guys. Seriously one of my favorite reaction channels. Amazing personalities! Thank you for keeping me entertained during my work day. It helps the day go by faster! 😊
This was on Netflix a couples years ago and started auto playing after another horror film. A very clever movie! I Recommend it to everyone.
My favorite horror movie. I love all of the characters. Something about a burning vengeful feminine entity moves me. I know she’s the villain. But as someone who has experienced graphic violence there’s a point in healing that just feels like fury. She became an unstoppable evil by what they did to her. And the lovely dad taking the pain from her makes me think… almost like an analogy for hurting the innocent people around you after being hurt yourself. The only thing I hated about this movie was the cat dying 🤣 totally unnecessary. She’s the perfect horror villain without having to lift a finger. And props to the actress.
When I really started getting into horror movies this was one of the first movies I watched. It really freaked me out.
I was hoping since she transferred everything to the dad, she would just sit up and walk off completely healed
I didn’t see anyone comment this but as someone who’s worked in hospitals and close to morgues I can say that no the smell of bodies isn’t around. Morgues are cold to slow decomposition, and heavily ventilated. Plus the amount of cleaning also helps to stave off smells. So usually they just smell like bleach. If a smelly body comes in, deodorizers can be used, and it doesn’t really travel. Also I get people getting squeamish, but like im just thinking about an actual autopsy and it’s like ‘yeah about right’
Seeing your reactions always make my day better :) I am glad I found you two. You are helping me through tough times right now. Thank you for it
Big ups for edit/censoring this as much as y'all did to get it onto yt
Okay… I have seen this movie before. But apparently I blocked a lot of it out because watching you guys watch this freaked me out. Or maybe I was just hiding behind a pillow for those scenes 😂
Very timely with The Mortuary's Assistant from Scary Sundays!
I love this movie. A surprisingly good horror film that flew under a ton of people’s radar.
I wonder if it was the inspiration for the game “The Mortuary Assistant” because it’s fairly similar.
I always felt like Autopsy of Jane Doe and Oculus could be matched up together. Both movies are about two family members dealing with something supernatural. They even hit some similar plot points. I personally preferred Jane Doe, though for its creepiness.
Spoilers:
Edit: I think you already point this out at 30:52 but, yes, in both Autopsy and Oculus a spouse accidentally gets involved and killed.
So no one could stop what happens with Jane let alone be able to know whats happened before its too late
these guys NEED to watch the spanish film 'the orphanage'
Drop the skincare routine 😂
That edit of the girl pointing at the mirror scared the bejeezus out of me 😅
You should totally look into the reason for the names John and Jane Doe. Fairly interesting
I ❤ you both
Thank you so much for your channel.
I watch along with you when I’m home alone to make me feel safer than watching alone 😂
But this one still really freaked me out 😱
Fun fact: The actress that played Jane Doe, was cast because she had an extensive background in yoga, and could remain motionless for long periods.
So those close ups of her face and body was actually her and not a prop.
I love this film so much- it’s just so atmospheric & creepy!! Y’all need to react to The Exorcism of Emily Rose…. Such an underrated movie, and the vibes are very similar to Jane Doe. Love you guys!!❤
This is a good movie on a truly miniscule budget. Not to make you regret creating your channel, but I would add The Descent, The Thing, and Pandorum to your list.
I'm so curious of what really happened. I hope they make a prequel too.
I F..... HATE YOUUUUU lmaooooooo bahaha omg when the lady on the plane came on i lost it!!!!!
An old friend of mine used to live above an old funeral home
Side note: lot of funeral directors in training (most of the time) live above funeral homes.
This was the first time I’ve seen Serg clutch onto Cody’s shoulder. I loved it!
In the State of Texas, the law is if you are not going to be embalmed, you have to be buried within 24 hours of clinical death. That’s what my mom did. And that is what I am going to do also after seeing this film! It’s in my top 3 horror films of all time.
I had requested this film for Cody… now it’s your turn Surg… you asked for gore, here it is. “Stake Land”. It is the best vampire film that you’ve never seen. It’s not like any other of its kind. The acting, the score, the locations, the horrific evil gore. I can’t say enough about this film without giving anything away, except that you may want a bucket next to you. I will tell you this, though. Kelly McGillis, who was the female lead in “Top Gun” is in this. She should have been nominated for Best Supporting Actress in this film. It is best acting that I’ve ever seen. She needed to be in more scenes! (and I’m glad she came out as a lesbian. Good for her and good for our community!). PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE react to this. With love and prayers, hugs and kisses… Watson
the fact that i watched this with my kid nephew at my sisters house, i thought it would be a fun horror movie to watch BUT NVM I GUESS 😭😭😭 At least he had fun with me 😭😭😭
12:09 - Cody knows so much about *so* much :)
He's like my mom.
I have been BEGGING people to react to this film. THANK YOU! I told you this is one that can make Cody squirm… how was it Mr.C!?
Lmao the false ending, I was like whaaaaaa😢😮
It took me three attemps to finish this movie not because I was scared watching a horror movie... But because of the fact that I can see stuff people would label as weird and not real 😂 and encountered stuff like witchcraft and possesions.
I watched this fir the first time it was like 10pm. It gets creepier and creepier as it slowly reveals what she is.
27:59 lmaooo 😅 Omg…Cody’s lil yelp right here made me laugh *SOOO* hard 😂 I’m really sorry that you’re trauma brought me laughter
I totally get it though…this movie is pretty effin scary to me also. There are so many “oh F nah!” moments in this movie 😂😂😂😂
not the lady on the plane meme im crying lmaoo
I this is the first video i see of y'alls and it's cuz you're one of the few big channels I've seen so this movie! I knew from the bumping into of y'all's , it was gone be good. And y'all DELIVERED!
