I honestly think the worst fate of a protagonist was in The Mist, he kills his entire family to save them from the horrors in the mist only to be saved a matter of seconds later.
If it makes you feel any better, I watched a dissection of that scene. The crazy lady was possessed by a demon. She would prophesize each terrible event before it happened and she prophesized the death of the child. It was only after that happened did the Mist begin to clear. You could see it in a few ways and perhaps in the way of fate, the Mist would never have cleared until the child died making the prophecy come true...still, a screwed up ending tho...
It seems unlikely that David Mills would've gotten a life sentence for killing John Doe. Crimes of passion aren't treated nearly as harshly as pre-meditated ones.
That's why that movie is so dumb. The killer gave you irrefutable evidence. Why not torture him until he tells you what happened to your girlfriend then kill him? What logical person would drink the Clearly stated drugged coffee? No one. The character still had his wits about him otherwise he wouldn't have been able to do as much detective work as he did. Dumb movie.
If you're familiar with "SE7EN", there's a hint that Mill's wife Tracy suffered far worse than merely death and post-mortem decapitation at John Doe's hands. He says to Mills, "I tried to play 'Husband'...I tried to TASTE the life of a simple man..." This suggests that John Doe probably spent the hours he held her captive raping and torturing her, possibly even performing an abortion of the fetus before satisfying his envy and killing her. Fincher once gave an interview where that was asked, and he was cagey with his answer. He wouldn't say Yay or Nay outright, but there are rumors that a quick shot was supposed to be included in Mill's mind (like the quick frame in which we see Tracy's face) where he sees John Doe molesting and torturing Tracy. This would have been just before Mills shoots Doe. One other thing, and this is something Fincher made absolutely clear in interviews about the movie: Mills was NOT ARRESTED nor was he ever TRIED FOR THE MURDER OF JOHN DOE. Fincher said that Mills was cleared of all charges under diminished capacity. Now, yes he likely spent time in a psychiatric facility, but he wasn't ever going to prison for killing the man who killed his wife then taunted him with the fact by delivering Mills' wife's head to him.
He’d have gotten VMS at worst because of the extenuating circumstances. No way he’d get life under that situation, and no criminal conviction is not an unlikely circumstance. It’s hard to imagine a jury that would convict if the evidence of the circumstances was allowed in.
I want to reread the book because I read the book when I was in like middle school and I remember it feeling a lot more undetermined versus the movie made me feel like he was crazy
@@AndrewParkins-v6b No, I think his mind was actually repaired at the end. However, with that, he is stuck with the memories that his wife murdered their three children, and he killed her to euthanize her since she was so insane that he didn't believe she could be saved (I mean, between her mad rants, she also begs him to "set [her] free," indicating that she had moments of clarity during which she was suffering). He blames himself for the deaths of his children, since his wife had an incident earlier, but instead of getting her help, he just moved the family, in the hope that a new location would be better for her. Without the self-deception maze of insanity, living with the guilt and loss was too much for him, so he pretended to be still crazy, which would force the hospital to lobotomize him, thus he would be at least free him from the trauma. When Teddy is being escorted away, he gives an apologetic look to "Chuck," showing he regrets sabotaging the experimental therapy, but he just can't handle the weight of the tragedies.
It’s always confused me how Tusk is said to be a “horror comedy”. It had some comical parts, but I found it to be incredibly disturbing. Sure, its premise sounds silly on paper, but when you move passed that and put yourself in that reality, it’s a really frightening idea. Thoroughly enjoyed the movie though.
I haven't seen a single viewer who thinks otherwise. The closest comparison has to be when shows like Family Guy and South Park show violence and cruelty for shock value- but those scenes aren't full on films.
People always have to categorize things. Some dork probably took notes of how many times he giggled and if it passed his arbitrary number, comedy was added to the genre
I couldn't take Tusk seriously. The concept of a man slowly descending into madness and/or turning into a monster is interesting but was done very poorly here. If it was played serious and focused more on the mental transformation it could have been good, but the attempts at comedy fell flat and dragged down any serious tone they were going for. Not to mention Johnyy Depp doing his worst Inspector Clouseau impression. It was so bad he didn't even want to be credited for the role.
Well in reality they would never allow him to live like that in a zoo😂. They either would have done surgery to get him as normal as possible or put him out of his misery. Honestly the ending pissed me off. Instead of killing him his girl and best friend put him in a zoo and feed him a fish😂 hell nah
Event Horizon... At the end, when Weir is holding Miller's head and showing him Hell and asking, "Do you see???" Mills replies, "Yes, I see." He accepts his sacrifice in order to save the last three members of his crew and detonates the explosives. Weir screams in anger and many people assume that he's angry because he doesn't get to take the rest of the crew. Here's my take on it... and it's somewhat consoling for me: Weir knows that the other three are out of reach. He knows he's going to take Mills and make him suffer. So why is he so angry? I believe that by choosing to sacrifice himself to save his crew, Mills can't go to Hell. Even though the engine section goes through the black hole into Hell, Mills doesn't go with them. Weir knows this, and is angry Mills found the loophole, and Mills dies without suffering.
Mills might have been arrested at the end of Se7en but i seriously doubt that hes gonna spend the rest of his days incarcerated. Sommerset and the cheif talked about how they are gonna take care of him. Still a terrible fate though no arguments there.
Thank you so much for pointing that out. I'm still so surprised by doofus people who think they would charge Mills with murdering the man who murdered his wife, then taunted Mills with the fact by delivering Tracy's head to him. Yeah, Mills is effectively destroyed by this, but he's not going to prison. Fincher actually said as much in an interview in which he was asked about that. He replied with something like: "I thought it was pretty clear when the chief and Somerset said things like 'taking care of him' and 'whatever he needs'. That doesn't sound like they're planning to lock him up forever, does it?" That was the flavor of Fincher's response to that question about Mills' ultimate fate.
@@keiththorpe9571you have such a low IQ that you think he wouldn't be charged for murdering someone, regardless of circumstances? Self defense is literally the only circumstance that will prevent a murder charge.
Came here to post this they were some of the most spectacularly immoral and incompetent scientists in fiction. And the girl never has to work again all things considered it's practically her best case scenario.
There's only monsters in that movie. The only good character there is Dren, mostly because she's a confused creature that didn't know what the hell is happening and why.
That's actually not how the plot of when evil lurks goes in all actuality Pedro is not a demon hunting cleaner and he constantly keeps ignoring the advice of everybody around him by acting impulsively because of his emotions which ultimately leads to all of those events occurring
I came here to say the same thing. The actual demon Hunter was the body that Pedro found at the start of the movie. He was killed by the brother of the rotten, compelled by the growing evil. When they tried to transport the rotten away from their village, they were selfishly trying to pass the burden onto another area, which only bought more time for the rot ten’s evil to grow. So instead of seeking out the proper steps to vanquish the rotten through ceremonial rites, their fears, selfish actions, and anger were what fed the evil in the end
And the daughter wasnt his - and and, everything would not have been fine if he'd "just killed the rotten to begin with". Either someone didn't actually watch the movie, or they barely paid attention to it
Arguably, Morgan freeman in seven seemed to be the main protagonist. Seeing time and again innocent victims lives shredded by the filth of NYC, that’s what got me anyway.
Did the writer actually watch When Evil Lurks? The brothers arent cleaners, they find a dead one in the woods and discover their neighbour has become possessed. You cant just kill them as you say, you have to do so in a very specific way with specialised equipment or the demon will be able to transfer itself out and be born in someone else. That whole section was a complete mess, what are you doing?
I'm not even sure they watched the trailer. I think they got the synopsis from someone else who wasn't able to read subtitles. Just watched this movie with my wife! Really excellent.
From what I can see here (I've never actually watched the movie) he seemed to be deep in its gravitic drive's housing, which would be the last place to be opened to space, meaning he probably did go to hell for his heroism.
If you ever do a top 10 list of horror movies that needed and deserved at least one sequel, but didn't get it, I would put Event Horizon at the top of that list. That movie cried out for a sequel, but it never happened.
It got horrible reviews on every platform. That might have something to do with it not getting a sequel. Also just cuz it's a classic, don't make it good
Like someone Said below, Pedro for 'When Evil Lurks' WASNT a hunter, he so happened to stumble on the possesed man. And it WASNT his daughter that died but his ex-wife daughter from another marriage.
The brother weren't demon hunters/cleaners in evil lurks. That's literally the reason why shit went bad. They have no clue how to deal with a rotten. They find a dead cleaner's body literally at the start of the movie and have no clue who he was or what any of his equipment was.
It is very probable that Mills would not get jail time at all. Though would go through a rather harsh court case. The temporary insanity defense would likely get him out of jail. "The temporary insanity defense is rare. It is typically used for circumstances where events leading up to the criminal act had a direct impact on the crime itself. Examples include: - Victims of emotional, sexual, or physical abuse - Family members seeking revenge for their victimized loved one - Victims of cults or other psychological tactics - People with unmedicated paranoid schizophrenia"
In Event Horizon, Miller may not have "spent an eternity being tortured." It was a different dimension the ship was pulled into, so maybe time still passes like it does here. Guess we'll never know!
To me, Vanishing is the most heartbreaking of all on this list. Some of the others, for some reason, were either too predictable or just not as upsetting as they were supposed to be.
I Love Ash in Evil Dead. Does seem grossly unfair really Mills got ultimate punishment when the killer is that Sadistic & had already been unveiled as such. Midnight Meat Train was Amazing, sad, very sad culmination though. Was actually SO traumatised by Tusk I actually can't watch any scenes from it, certainly not because it was bad just heartbreaking 😭
I think you may have misspoke about the bit with Event Horizon he does use an explosive to destroy the compartment where he and the possessed Weir reside instantly killing them (although the entity probably could just possess another physical body, if given the opportunity). Miller physically dies, thus being spared from being trapped in the Hell dimension.
I'd like to think that due to Millers sacrifice in Event Horizon, there was enough data recorded from the experiment that the scientists of that universe were able to figure out what not to do and utilize the drive system safely.
I'd query a couple of these; for example in Se7en I think it's pretty unlikely Mills suffered any lasting legal consequences given the circumstances in which the shooting took place, especially with a respected police veteran eyewitness in his corner. It's far more likely Doe's death would be played down to the public ("died while trying to escape police custody", for example) and Mills would be sent for psychiatric evaluation before being pensioned off somewhere quiet. I seem to remember Fincher himself confirming this in an interview one time, though I can't be sure. Also, in the case of Shutter Island, while it isn't exactly a happy ending, at least Andrew gets exactly what he wants: oblivion. He makes the conscious decision to not have to go on thinking because he can't stand to live with himself. Like I said, not a happy outcome, but about the best he could have hoped for, and certainly not the worst fate in the history of horror cinema...
You completely got when evil lurks wrong... Pedro shouldnt kill the rotten ever. Thats the whole point... And Demon didnt distract him to make him late for the birth, demon is born BECAUSE PEDRO KILLED THE ROTTEN. The daughter wasnt his. She was his ex wifes. Thats why he didn't want to chase the dog but had to because new husband wanted to kill the dog (the demon). Again... YOU SHOULDNT KILL POSSESSED ONES. There is a ritual to be performed by specific people of faith
2:38 Yeah no….he wouldn’t spend the rest of his days behind bars. It would be near impossible to find a jury willing to convict him of murder given the circumstances. Guy got like 5 years probation at the worst.
Army of darkness ended with Ashe going back in time. He is back at working at S-mart where the deadite came thru because ash didn’t say the saying correct again. So he blast the deadite with a Winchester which is the true ending to the movie. The alternate ended that came only out in UK had him used the potion. So yeah the real Ended isn’t the UK ending
Yes. I watched it recently and when that ending came up I was like what the hell is this? I had to Google it because I had always seen the S-Mart "Hail to the king, baby" ending. The other one is an alternate ending. I thought I was going crazy at first. Like, did I even watch the right movie??? 😂😂😂
Hate to be this guy but the info you guys have on "When Evil Lurks" is pretty off base. Pedro and his bro aren't cleaners, the girl who dies isn't his daughter (she's the daughter of his ex wife and new husband) and Pedro is the cause of the Beast being born, its not born because he was locked out of a room. Lastly he needed to kill the rotten in a specific way, if he'd had just killed it right off the bat it would have gone just as bad. Basically every problem in that movie was exasperated / caused by Pedro lol. Anyways sorry for being annoying.
No,plz be that guy. That entire section made me so mad. They absolutely butchered the content of a great horror- either they didn't even watch it or barely paid attention. Either is unforgivable
Oohhh… so we’re not gonna talk about what Adrien Brody’s character, Clive, did to Bren in Splice??? Fine… but I’m putting a lot of blame on him since he planted the idea of coitus in Bren’s head! 🤣
Number 6 with rex is actually based on a dutch book I believe "het gouden ei" translates to the golden egg. The girl got kidnapped by the man and buried alive, rex wants to find out what happens to her and has been looking for her for 3 years. Eventually the killer aproaches him and says that the only way to find out what happend to saskia is to relive it, he has to suffer the same fate as her to find out. He gives in because he cant let it go and needs to know what happend to her so the killer knocks him out and he wakes up in a coffin under the ground realising what happend to saskia. The killer later kills himself by jumping of a balcony. This was a book for children btw
Regarding Se7en, there's _no way in Hell_ Brad Pitt's character is spending the rest of his life in jail No jury in the world would convict him after hearing he got the _severed head of his _*_pregnant_*_ wife_ airdropped to him by the killer, who then taunted him about it. Hell, that's if it even gets to go to court. This might be the strongest case of "temporary insanity" that i could think of. Will he suffer the rest of his life? Undoubtedly yes, you don't just walk that off. But will he do it from a jail cell? I highly doubt it. Christ that movie was a trip though, Jesus 😅
Tim’s fate in Oculus is made even worse by the fact that he took the fall for his parents’ deaths and was institutionalised for blaming the mirror. My man had only just been released after he had come to accept that there was no haunted mirror just for it to happen all over again. Depressing shit
For scenario number 2, he actually would not spend the rest of his life in prison. He would probably spend very little. He would be ordered to psychiatric help, though. That extreme circumstance would change the judgment.
4:46 Uhhhhhh No. That's not true at all. There are other pharmaceutical companies to turn to. Or the government. She absolutely had a choice and absolutely could have had it terminated.
Still think we really should have gotten a directors cut of Event Horizon since those images showing what the deleted scenes could have contained look like they would have made the film more than just a cult classic
Anyone thinking about watching "When Evil Lurks" should know its a good movie but extremely violent and there is on screen animal deaths depicted in it
Elsa from slice is not a hero lmao why am I not seeing this more? She was an abuser, narcissistic, and unethical. She put her own dna inside of the animal 😭😭😭. How can you say dren ruined her life when she literally created it and had her life terrible in a box and shacks lmao
so if you create something and it does a bad thing, then it is not its fault and it is yours. That is absurd. everyone is responsible for their own. And, Elsa and Clive were not "heroes", however they were the good guys, the positive side in the story. I do not see what they did necessarily unethical.
@@amhnumani she put her dna in something that was literally agenst the law. Watch the movie. The move she did even in our world is called unethical. If you add human to animal dna it’s called unethical
Pedro and his brother were just citizens trying to survive and save their families in WHEN EVIL LURKS. The gear they found belonged to a Cleaner who was murdered by the son of the possessed person (neighbor i think)
I honestly think the worst fate of a protagonist was in The Mist, he kills his entire family to save them from the horrors in the mist only to be saved a matter of seconds later.
oof, yea, remember that scene...
Definitely. Watched that with my brother years ago and that was the biggest wtf we ever had on our faces
I think that was in another one of their videos
If it makes you feel any better, I watched a dissection of that scene. The crazy lady was possessed by a demon. She would prophesize each terrible event before it happened and she prophesized the death of the child. It was only after that happened did the Mist begin to clear.

Well...he survived so yay
It seems unlikely that David Mills would've gotten a life sentence for killing John Doe. Crimes of passion aren't treated nearly as harshly as pre-meditated ones.
Very true.
Also, he's a police detective. He's unlikely to spend much time behind bars at all.
Depends on the crime of passion but yes.
@@katherineheasley6196 yeah this movie would have been instantly refuted modern day lol, cops dont get shit for killing someone

Such a great movie, with such a gut-wrenching ending!
In Event Horizon, Miller may not have "spent an eternity being tortured." It was a different dimension the ship was pulled into, so maybe time still passes like it does here. Guess we'll never know!
To me, Vanishing is the most heartbreaking of all on this list. Some of the others, for some reason, were either too predictable or just not as upsetting as they were supposed to be.
I Love Ash in Evil Dead. Does seem grossly unfair really Mills got ultimate punishment when the killer is that Sadistic & had already been unveiled as such. Midnight Meat Train was Amazing, sad, very sad culmination though. Was actually SO traumatised by Tusk I actually can't watch any scenes from it, certainly not because it was bad just heartbreaking 😭
Thanks for including The Midnight Meat Train. Great movie!
"Stay back! Doe has the upper hand here." Yeah powerful words. He literally lead them to fulfill his desires
Laurence Fishburne is a real one. Sacrifices himeself to save Neo in the apt building, sacrifices himself to hell to save his crew
Great video,amazing job.
At #2, I thought what could be worse? But...
🥉
That Army of Darkness ending was sort of used at the ending of season 3. Was looking forward to a Season 4.
I think you may have misspoke about the bit with Event Horizon he does use an explosive to destroy the compartment where he and the possessed Weir reside instantly killing them (although the entity probably could just possess another physical body, if given the opportunity). Miller physically dies, thus being spared from being trapped in the Hell dimension.
5:43 This is The Vanishing with Jeff Bridges
There was an American remake with Sandra Bullock. This is discussing the original
Plot twist. After being told he has to take the Killers Place in the Midnight Meat Train. Leon just does not do as he is told.
Honestly, that original ending to army of darkness would have been such a hilarious end to the trilogy. 😂
I'd like to think that due to Millers sacrifice in Event Horizon, there was enough data recorded from the experiment that the scientists of that universe were able to figure out what not to do and utilize the drive system safely.
I approve of this video concept. Well done!
Midnight Meat Train is my favorite on this list
It wasn't Wallace's femurs that were used to make the tusks, it was his tibiae.
I'd query a couple of these; for example in Se7en I think it's pretty unlikely Mills suffered any lasting legal consequences given the circumstances in which the shooting took place, especially with a respected police veteran eyewitness in his corner. It's far more likely Doe's death would be played down to the public ("died while trying to escape police custody", for example) and Mills would be sent for psychiatric evaluation before being pensioned off somewhere quiet. I seem to remember Fincher himself confirming this in an interview one time, though I can't be sure. Also, in the case of Shutter Island, while it isn't exactly a happy ending, at least Andrew gets exactly what he wants: oblivion. He makes the conscious decision to not have to go on thinking because he can't stand to live with himself. Like I said, not a happy outcome, but about the best he could have hoped for, and certainly not the worst fate in the history of horror cinema...
Event Horizon, one of my all time fave movies. Sci fi/horror.
Same mine too.
You completely got when evil lurks wrong... Pedro shouldnt kill the rotten ever. Thats the whole point... And Demon didnt distract him to make him late for the birth, demon is born BECAUSE PEDRO KILLED THE ROTTEN. The daughter wasnt his. She was his ex wifes. Thats why he didn't want to chase the dog but had to because new husband wanted to kill the dog (the demon). Again... YOU SHOULDNT KILL POSSESSED ONES. There is a ritual to be performed by specific people of faith
What about what happens to Dr. John McCabe (David Warbeck) and Liza Merrill (Catriona MacColl) at the end of Lucio Fulci's "The Beyond" (1981)?
*We deserve a sequel to Event Horizon, both Fishburne & Neil have talked about the original being a favourite of their respective careers.*
Yup true.
They already made pt2......it's called"hellboy"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@revan-ix8uw Hellboy LITTERALLY has NOTHING to do with Event Horizon. Stupidest response I have ever seen.
The save your own skin sounds personal for the guy from the first jeepers creeper s movie
2:38 Yeah no….he wouldn’t spend the rest of his days behind bars. It would be near impossible to find a jury willing to convict him of murder given the circumstances. Guy got like 5 years probation at the worst.
Facts
Eternity in hell being tortured.... Humans spend a lifetime being tortured by Justin Bieber voice.
Mills prolly wasnt incarcerated. He had a traumatic mental break and Im pretty sure that the other cops had his back.
I love that The Vanishing is based on the Dutch boek "Het gouden ei". Great story and great ending.
Drag Me To Hell was the worst possible ending for anyone
Army of darkness ended with Ashe going back in time. He is back at working at S-mart where the deadite came thru because ash didn’t say the saying correct again. So he blast the deadite with a Winchester which is the true ending to the movie. The alternate ended that came only out in UK had him used the potion. So yeah the real
Ended isn’t the UK ending
Which Winchester: Sam, Dean or John?
Is the army of darkness one an alternative ending? That was not the ending in any of the versions I’ve watched
Yes. I watched it recently and when that ending came up I was like what the hell is this? I had to Google it because I had always seen the S-Mart "Hail to the king, baby" ending. The other one is an alternate ending. I thought I was going crazy at first. Like, did I even watch the right movie??? 😂😂😂
The Evil Dead alternative ending eventually became canon in the series.
I feel bad for Ash then
I didn't like Tusk at all, but it was totally unsettling.
Hate to be this guy but the info you guys have on "When Evil Lurks" is pretty off base. Pedro and his bro aren't cleaners, the girl who dies isn't his daughter (she's the daughter of his ex wife and new husband) and Pedro is the cause of the Beast being born, its not born because he was locked out of a room. Lastly he needed to kill the rotten in a specific way, if he'd had just killed it right off the bat it would have gone just as bad. Basically every problem in that movie was exasperated / caused by Pedro lol. Anyways sorry for being annoying.
No,plz be that guy. That entire section made me so mad. They absolutely butchered the content of a great horror- either they didn't even watch it or barely paid attention. Either is unforgivable
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 good list!
Did you guys even watch When Evil Lurks before giving that summary?
Jake from Jacob's Ladder. He had to fight literal hell to die properly. At least he does go to heaven in the end.
Love Ya Elly ❤
You have a way with words 😮
Keep up the Ghoul Reviews 🧛🏻🧌🧙♀️🧟
There is a “the vanishing “ kiefer Sutherland , Sandra bullock and Jeff bridges and the professor from Rosered
Event Horizon is a great 90s horror movie 😢 sadly we'll never get the real original gory version
so the last one just feels like an alternate universe for warhammer or doom, they literally used warp travel
Oohhh… so we’re not gonna talk about what Adrien Brody’s character, Clive, did to Bren in Splice??? Fine… but I’m putting a lot of blame on him since he planted the idea of coitus in Bren’s head! 🤣
Poor miller got taken into the warp. May the God Emperor deliver his loyal soul
Number 6 with rex is actually based on a dutch book I believe "het gouden ei" translates to the golden egg.
The girl got kidnapped by the man and buried alive, rex wants to find out what happens to her and has been looking for her for 3 years. Eventually the killer aproaches him and says that the only way to find out what happend to saskia is to relive it, he has to suffer the same fate as her to find out. He gives in because he cant let it go and needs to know what happend to her so the killer knocks him out and he wakes up in a coffin under the ground realising what happend to saskia. The killer later kills himself by jumping of a balcony. This was a book for children btw
I knew "The Vanishing" version with Kiefer Sutherland and Jeff Bridges. Honestly, they actings are immaculate.
i like that the mirror is aware of laws enough to frame people
Regarding Se7en, there's _no way in Hell_ Brad Pitt's character is spending the rest of his life in jail
No jury in the world would convict him after hearing he got the _severed head of his _*_pregnant_*_ wife_ airdropped to him by the killer, who then taunted him about it.
Hell, that's if it even gets to go to court. This might be the strongest case of "temporary insanity" that i could think of.
Will he suffer the rest of his life? Undoubtedly yes, you don't just walk that off. But will he do it from a jail cell? I highly doubt it.
Christ that movie was a trip though, Jesus 😅
Tim’s fate in Oculus is made even worse by the fact that he took the fall for his parents’ deaths and was institutionalised for blaming the mirror. My man had only just been released after he had come to accept that there was no haunted mirror just for it to happen all over again. Depressing shit
A man of class i see.
What movie is the first scene from in the video? Its like first 5 seconds with the bunch people with glowing eyes.
I doubt mills will spend the rest of his life in prison
Event Horizon scarred me for life
No.7 Everything that happened to Elsa is because of her and her husband.
The Fly must be in this list
For scenario number 2, he actually would not spend the rest of his life in prison. He would probably spend very little. He would be ordered to psychiatric help, though. That extreme circumstance would change the judgment.
In my head Miller died in the explosion and was never taken to the hell dimension
4:46 Uhhhhhh No. That's not true at all. There are other pharmaceutical companies to turn to. Or the government. She absolutely had a choice and absolutely could have had it terminated.
Still think we really should have gotten a directors cut of Event Horizon since those images showing what the deleted scenes could have contained look like they would have made the film more than just a cult classic
Anyone thinking about watching "When Evil Lurks" should know its a good movie but extremely violent and there is on screen animal deaths depicted in it
Elsa from slice is not a hero lmao why am I not seeing this more? She was an abuser, narcissistic, and unethical. She put her own dna inside of the animal 😭😭😭. How can you say dren ruined her life when she literally created it and had her life terrible in a box and shacks lmao
so if you create something and it does a bad thing, then it is not its fault and it is yours. That is absurd. everyone is responsible for their own. And, Elsa and Clive were not "heroes", however they were the good guys, the positive side in the story. I do not see what they did necessarily unethical.
@@amhnumani she put her dna in something that was literally agenst the law. Watch the movie. The move she did even in our world is called unethical. If you add human to animal dna it’s called unethical
Here hero just refers to protagonist.
4:56 yeah Elsa stopped doing those and started making snowman instead😅😂
I seen Event Horizon in theaters when i was a teenager and that shit messed with my head.
You either can't read subtitles or you didn't watch when evil lurks at all.
If anyone found Ash during his potion induced slumber would they be able to wake him? Or would he still supernaturally sleep through it?
Pedro and his brother were just citizens trying to survive and save their families in WHEN EVIL LURKS. The gear they found belonged to a Cleaner who was murdered by the son of the possessed person (neighbor i think)
Lets not forget Midsommar shall we? 🙃🙃
Yea you can join the cult too 😅
2:40 What do you mean spend the rest of his days incarcerated. There's a 0% chance that happens.
Kind of surprised that the guy in Seven got arrested. Cops do that all the time in real life.
Wtf?? Why the hell do they feed him raw fish if they KNOW he's still human!?!?
