    Many reactors won't touch this film because of the content. You did a great job, here. It must have been hell editing this. Kudos to you, for taking this film on...

    This is one of the very few movies that have to this day stayed with me. It is a truly scary movie. I saw it in the early 90's on tv one night and man oh man, it's scary. Modern writers and directors these days can learn from this one. These days the jump scare is so over used. Jump scares only scare you for a sedond and then you forget about it.

    I was watching it tonight. Then I saw your reaction and decided to check it out. I enjoyed this reaction.
    Me and my dad were sitting in the kitchen. We heard footsteps running up the ramp to the front deck. Then the front door burst open. Then a cold rush of air comes through the kitchen. Then the side door in the laundry room that was locked blew open hard. The interesting thing is the front door was open from the burst of air but the glass screen door was closed and locked. It sounded like someone ran up the deck and then through the house. Dad before he passed said he saw a woman sitting with me. He said she was in her thirties. He said one time when I dozed off in the living room chair he heard a voice from inside my torso say: I want out. I live alone now. I died last year. Doctors brought me back. I was gone long enough to cause brain damage but none happened. Also have an unknown muscle condition that creates toxins in me. The doctors said I have enough in me at times to kill five people but for whatever reason it's not bothering me. I know there's something after this life, I've seen it. I know I sound crazy but I've been to places that I don't believe anybody's supposed to go. I was given a task when I was gone. I was unconscious for over a month on life support. I can't tell you what I did but once I completed it I woke up from life support. I had a 3% chance of surviving life support. 11% chance of surviving the open heart surgery. And no chance to survive the type of heart attack I had. The doctors said it was unheard of to be dead as long as I was and not suffer any type of brain damage.
    I know when I got back I knew nothing in this world mattered. I know that when you leave this world you take love kindness and forgiveness and leave the rest. And the Egyptians the warning they had on the tombs about being negative in the afterlife is important. There are Gates just like people think about gates to heaven gates to hell. Everybody has to stand before those Gates. And there's a test that you have to pass. if you pass the gates open. if you don't pass the test you'll wish you had. It's an easy test. I can't tell you what it is you'll have to figure that out for yourself. but a warning , there is trickery before the gates. And I'll give you a hint. do not judge other people. concentrate on yourself when standing before the gates. Take only those things I told you to take. Heed the warnings.
    I know there's something else beyond this life. When I was told that I died I didn't believe no one. the doctors told me the medical records show that I died twice. Strange thing about my afterlife experience I had a moment of deja vu. I remembered the first time I made a mistake and I woke up in the hospital room just to find myself back where the afterlife dream or whatever began.
    Anyways. I've written about 86 pages in notes as to what all happened. I could write a book about it all. It happened a year ago in August 2023.

    always remember its not about sexual need in that kind of violent attack (between people) its about power and dominance. Also, parapsychologists are trained to be sceptics first and disprove any phenomenon by all logical possible means before they consider anything paranormal thats why they didnt believe her at first. There is a remake coming...i hope they dont ruin it.

      You are right. Although, there's one thing I was realizing when I was editing this, that I didn't touch on in the reaction. She experienced so much misogyny and abuse in her life, starting with her father. I feel like if you take out all the horror elements, the theme of this movie is about Carla finding her strength after a lifetime of abuse and misogyny.

    Born in 84, "renting" movies at your local Blockbuster was a thing of times. I've loved horror movies since childhood and ive seen most of them and as much as i enjoy horror, its rare that any actually scare me, especially modern horror. Newer horror is lacking that movie magic we see in 60s, 70s, 80s. I was 12 years old and my dad and i were at Blockbuster and i askec him to pick a really scary movie and this was the one he picked: this movie scared the crap out of me. When i was done watching ( by myself) i was so creeped out,i was so nervous even taking a shower. That makes this a good horror movie :) and that music and that pounding.

    Not sure if you know, but Quentin Tarantino used the "attack music" from this film in Inglourious Basterds". Love this movie. Nice reaction 🍸

      Hey thanks for the comment! Which part of the movie is this attack music in? Now that you said it, I thought of that siren music in Kill Bill, and it's pretty similar to this attack music too.

    1991's The Haunted is an excellent TV movie with very similar scary vibe and atmosphere as The Entity .... one of those horror movie where the scary vibe sticks with you for sometime after the movie ends ...

    One of my favourite movies and as you say the silence with no music and that thumping is more scarier than any horror or paranormal film I’ve seen, also based on a true story in California I think then she moved to Chicago and it followed her but the attacks became less frequent and less severe If I remember correctly

    The real woman, Doris Bither, was attacked and raped by an unseen poltergeist back in 1974 or 75. She was, or still a single mother. She experienced the attacks, but they vanished later in life. There's a small biography about her case that happened in California.

    I don't understand why you thought this movie wouldn't scare you. Horror movies from the 80s and back are the ones that are really scary, even the mechanical special effects look more real for obvious reasons. Today's horror movies really suck, today's horror movies consist only of a series of jump scares and CGI effects that look totally fake, but without a solid story, as they are just cliché scenes.

    • @mikewatchesstuff
      @mikewatchesstuff  5 месяцев назад

      Because I grew up in the 80's, and movies that I have seen from that time don't tend to scare me anymore: The Shining, Poltergeist, The Exorcist, Demons 1 & 2, Night of the Demons, Hellraiser, Nightmare on Elm Street, The Fog, George Romero's zombie movies, etc. Sure, they scared the crap out of me as a kid, but they don't now. There's also some horror movies from the 80's that I didn't see until I was an adult, and those didn't scare me either. I hope that gives you an idea of why I said that. If anything it's more a testament to how good this movie was, to still scare someone who has a mid-amount of desensitization to horror.
      And yeah, for sure there's a lot of more recent horror movies that are crap, but there's some good ones out there too.

    There's a story somewhere here on RUclips, where a female anonymous person claimed they had a sleepover at their home with their best female friend, and anyhow the friend claimed she felt very uneasy in her best friend's home like something was there. Anyhow, I guess she was going to sleep in the guest room, anyhow the home owner went off to bed already, and the friend went to take a shower, and I guess something possibly demonic when she got out was waiting for her, then she was like in a trance and had no will anymore of her own, and it had her relax, then raped her in the guest room. After the assault took place, of course all the fear set in, and she ran to her homeowner friend in the other room. She had to go to the hospital, because she was bleeding really bad down below, because of the damage it caused from the rape. I don't know where that story is on here now, as it was being narrated on here. Of course, probably not a real story, but creepy even for fiction. Anyhow, seeing this on here reminds me of that story on here.

    The best horror movies have a great script, good acting and a compelling story which was true but elements were added or changed, this incident has been played down by the academics and outright dismissed by some because of the lack of what they consider ‘good evidence’.
