Sir, great T-Shirt.
When Insidious Chapter 2 is James Wans "worst" movie, you know he's an awesome director.
Exactly!
Right? Lmfaooo i loved that movie 😂
Its not really bad or worse...its just his other works are more impressive
"Directed by James Wan" will always excite me.
Malignant should be proof to the studios you can go off on a new, non franchise idea and make it work well. Cool, original story
@@AntLeonardi01 It could be both.
Malignant was awful, such a shitty ending, went from a 6 to a 3 real fast
Anthony Leonardi@ I'm a fan since The Conjuring. However, I didn't find malignant that good...like it was okay but one of Janes' kinda mediocre movies imo
@@AntLeonardi01 I didn’t see it as that at all and I still loved the movie, it was dumb gory fun with a dope unexpected action sequence towards the end. I don’t think people need some bullshit deeper understanding to like something
Dead Silence is a movie that creeped me out when I was little. Really underrated
Yeah I'd have dead silence at least in my top 3.
there is a movie from his college years with his friends & roommate back in SAW series they was making call>> THE COLLECTOR/2009...most the movie shot in dark , but is scary & gory, i bought it on bluray yearssss ago, u can see James wan his works & camera works entire movie ..there is a killer in that movie , always f*n freaks' me out,
Very very underrated movie I'm still scaryed of that movie neva finish I'm 23 now
I love it and rewatch it quite often
Dead silence definitely underrated, I agree
tysm for that tangent. SO MANY PEOPLE NEEDED TO HEAR THAT. i can’t tell you how much it bothers me that people keep yelling “SPOILER ALERT” whenever i tell them the name of a film
Death sentence is an extremely underrated revenge flick.
James Wan has my respect for how he made Aquaman work in live action.
Frl
I like how he did the Conjuring Verse.
The first Insidious came out when I was still working at a theater and we used to watch all the new stuff on Wednesdays after we got off. Only 1 of my coworkers wanted to watch it with me so it was just the 2 of us in an empty theater. Still to this day one of the scariest and most fun horror movies I've ever seen.
Sounds fun! Just watched black Adam the other day and was just me and my mom so made it better cuz we could b loud and talk sh it etc lol
"Beware the stare of Mary Shaw. She had no children only dolls. And if you see her in your dreams, be sure to never ever scream or she'll rip your tongue out at the seam." Glad to see Dead Silence make it on the list, I really enjoy that movie.
The "Conjuring 2" is one of my favorite horror sequels of all time. I actually prefer it over the first just because I got so attached to the character's and didn't wanna see them get hurt. Phenomenal sequel. 🤟🤘✌️👌
Conjuring 2 is a better movie, Conjuring 3 however was boring
I agree 100% after 2 it started going downhill. Can't believe how bad the nun movie was it pissed me off so bad considering how great conjuring 2 was
@@Gregbaltzer Agreed. I hate the conjuring 3
@@woodyhorton8537ngl the nun character absolutely terrified me after the Conjuring 2, it’s one of the only horror movie characters i’ve ever had nightmares about. i started to watch The Nun last night to face my fear and hopefully enjoy a good scary movie, but i lost interest around the part where Irene finds that the priest went missing in the middle of the night and ended up in the coffin underground. the acting was bad, the characters are silly, they show the Nun too much to the point where it takes away the mystery and creepiness from the character…idk, maybe i’ll finish it, but i am grateful the movie seems to be so bad that i’m not really afraid of that character anymore lol
@@sierramobley8962 I agree 100 percent the nun seemed nerfed and overpowered at the same time somehow. Like they didn't even know its name and still no one died or had more than an inconvienience like getting buried alive or have zombies chase for a few even tho it's on the screen most of the movie creeping around like some scooby doo villian bending space and time but still doing nothing... I still don't know what it's goal was in that whole movie (never possessed anyone) but then again it's probably cuz i was bored and likely just wasn't paying as much attention but yea it sucked so bad that i barely even remember the ending lol conjuring 2 on the other hand was damn near perfect and like u said the nun was creepy af and only lost because she knew its name. I wouldn't even bother finishing the nun if i were u its literally just whatever to the point i still can't even think what it was even tho i've seen it a few times from what i remember its the girl who's not quite a nun yet getting ahold of christs blood or something like that like and using it which sounds like an rpg quest
I loved that twist ending of Dead Silence
I do too
It’s a great twist
It's jaw dropping.
One day you should do Leigh Whannel, once he has more movies under his belt though
Upgrade and The Invisible Man are great movies.
Leigh is arguably a better director. He just needs to make more movies.
Dude, you spoke so much truth throughout this video, on so many levels. You are awesome!
"Opinions are like assholes, but YOU DON'T NEED TO BE ONE!"
Death Sentence is one of my favourite movies of all time. I can put it in and just sit there and be entertained from start to finish. Love John Goodman’s character. The grieving parents are portrayed very well and the challenging relationship with their surviving son. One of my favourite scenes is when Nick goes to buy the guns and the dad to dad conversation. Very tense.
I agree about the first and second act of the Conjuring being better than the final act. I feel that way about the Conjuring 2 as well. Favourite part of that movie is the scene with the crooked man
I've always loved Dead Silence. Regardless of it being a forgotten gem, it's always been one of my favourites.
Death sentence is one of my favorite movies. Sure the synopsis is cliche but it’s just done differently. This movie is so underrated. John Goodman killed the role he had.
Death Sentence was my favorite revenge movie since Death Wish. I was wondering how well Kevin Bacon would do in a role like this and stand against the great Charles Bronson. But I absolutely loved it. The way he started skittery because he didn’t know what he was doing but then he starts getting deeper and darker, I seriously didn’t know this was a James Wan movie until you mentioned it. Fantastic film!
Thank you for acknowledging that almost every James Wan film is better then "Saw." Awesome ranking!
Completely disagree
The 1st Saw is a 9/10. After number 2 is when the saw series quality really dies off.
Found you recently and just running all the videos you’ve made. I love James wan and from that list never heard of death sentence but definitely a movie I’m checking out this weekend. Thanks for the ranking !
Great ranking Cody! Dead Silence has always been super underrated to me so glad to see it get some love.
Checked out Malignant yesterday and it's probably in my top 3 alongside Conjuring 2 and Saw.
Keep up the great work 😃
Personally I love Dead Silence more than the first Saw.
Awesome channel brother. I watched your 50 best horror films video and found so many great movies such as Phantasm, The lost Boys, because of you. Thankyou so much. ❤️
So surprised by your Number one but i Love your choice. Sometimes it seems that people forgot this masterpiece. I loved it then when it came Out and i still love it
Hey man I’m a new subscriber I love your videos! I’ve been binge watching them. Love your take on Death Sentence very under rated movie I remember walking in my local video store over a decade ago and grab it off the shelf and anytime someone ask me for a movie to watch I always recommend this.
Totally agree about Death Sentence not getting enough love,it’s such an underrated movie.
Thank you so much for saying what I’ve been thinking. This list is perfect. Too many people don’t give the credit to Death Sentence that is due. Thank you for validating why I subscribe to your channel and trust your reviews more than most!
Death Sentence is my favorite James Wan movie, and one of my favorite movies too! It's brutal, sad and very intense. Very very underrated!
Great Ranking Cody!! Good to see someone give Death Sentence the praise it deserves!!
Wow, good job!.. When you got to number 2, I was beginning to worry Death Sentence wasn't on your list at all!!! But knowing it is your number 1 has made me so happy. I love this movie so much.
Cody! Thank you! I will be becoming a patreon which I NEVER do with ANY RUclipsR, but I just enjoy your videos so much and our similar passions for movies. I don’t know how you havnt shot through the roof yet! You get so many basic questions and I really want to be able to ask you some good ones!
Oohhh! I totally forgot that James Wan directed Death Sentence; what an incredible reveal at the end of this ranking! I recall watching it in the theatre, thinking: "this is a perfect Punisher readaptation!"
Great video as always! A full dead silence review would be awesome
100% agree with you with Death Sentence. I love that movie. It's criminally underrated.
Great ranking Codi. There's a real hidden gem starring Lyne Shaye called "Dead End". Highly recommended watch.
Yes!!!! Brilliant movie glorious cast and actually creepy and funny. A hidden classic in my opinion
Dead End is great! Such a unique concept.
Dead End Is an awesome horror film.
One of my favorite movies to watch during the holidays! It’s so good and Ray Wise and Lin Shaye were fantastic!
That movie was creeepppyyyy lol so underrated
I saw death sentence when I was younger it had me crying my eyes out, Imagine what any father watching this feels when watching death sentence. Agree with you I think death sentence is Wan’s best movie
Awesome ranking Cody, i’ve seen all Wan’s films except for Death Sentence. Now I’ll have to check it out thanks to ya!
Awesome Ranking Cody.Great choice for number 1 which is also my favorite.Love your channel
You are a fucking awesome RUclipsr man I love how honest you are with all you’re video. Great ranking man!!!!!!!
Mate do not stop being you...love these vids got me through this pandemic lol try graveyard disturbance from lamberto bava (deamons ect)
You and I have the same feels about The Conjuring 2! One of my favorite entities in a horror film is the Nun. She scared the crap out of me. However, the movie The Nun makes me want to cry cause it sucked so bad. I also thought Conjuring 2 had too much going on. Great list! I worry about spoilers over on my channel as well but at the end of the day there are going to be people who appreciate your content and people who don't. I think your attitude about it is spot on! 👌🏼
i’m thankful The Nun was garbage, it relieved me of the chokehold that character had on me lol i had nightmares about the nun character since i saw the Conjuring 2, it’s good to be free lol
First time seeing you on here and that mid video rant had me cracked up. I hit subscribe after that final f u. Hahahaha good stuff!
If I was the. Critics I would give James Wan an Award for Best Picture For Saw, Best Horror Franchise, Best Soundtrack
The Malignant rant alone was worth it LOL! Dead Silence is a hidden gem! Love these rankings esp. where I disagree. Nice to see someone’s true opinion over what they are “supposed to” rank. Keep the awesome rankings coming! Yes Death Sentence is so damn awesome!!!
First saw dead silence when I was 7, it scared the crap out of me. My cousin and I occasionally bring it up
Thanks to u mentioning Death Sentence a couple of years ago I watched it and freakin loved it with out a doubt my favourite James Wann film also 👍🤘🔥
Death Sentence was awesome, it was awesome seeing kevin bacon playing a vengeful character!
The Conjuring 2 for me is definitely no 1 because it is very personal for me growing up in London in an old house, very much like the house in the movie. As a child I have quite a few memories of being scared in my own home that is so similar to certain parts in this movie, especially the strange noises and bangs in the middle of the night, the tv switching channels and the remote vanishing and reappearing somewhere else, and of course not forgetting the chair in the corner of the living room. For me, we had an old rocking armchair that creeped me out many times as a kid. It's an awesome movie!
I haven't watched Death Sentence in so many years. I used to love it. I never hear anyone talk about it, so I didn't expect that spot in your ranking!
I agree with your number 1 pick 100% my favorite James Wan movie as well, Such an underrated gem As soon as you mentioned it earlier on in the video I was like I hope he swerves people watching this and pick it as number 1 I love your channel keep it up the great content.
when i was young, dead silence really creeped me out and i loved it. the scene under the house was one of the best scares i remember from my childhood
Dead Silence is one creepy little movie that deserves more love, and talk about that cool twist! I'm glad you mentioned that.
The Conjuring is my favorite for obvious reasons, saw it in theaters on my 18th, but Insidious comes in right after. Best Friend and I went to see it in theaters when it released, totally blind. I believe we’d actually intended to see something else but decided to see Insidious last minute when we saw the poster. It was just the two of us in the pitch black theater with surround sound and we nearly jumped out of our skin, so I’ve always and will always have a special place in my heart for that one. It was one of my most fun theater experiences.
I think your top pick is excellent. Such an underrated film. Good ranking!!
I discovered james wan through Aquaman actually. I really love that film it's one of my favorite dc films as well and it got me to check out james wan's other work. Great video.
The video I didn't know I wanted, but the one I definitely needed!
Hell yeah! Death Sentence is amazing. One of my all time favorites too.
Here’s my ranking
Dead Silence - haven’t seen it in like 12 years. Didn’t like it at the time so I haven’t revisited it since.
Saw - Really don’t care for this entire franchise. Not for me.
Insidious 2 - Pretty much share the same thoughts as you
Malignant - a crazy fun ride but to me it was kinda messy. Felt like 3 or 4 different movies in one but overall a movie I like and will rewatch.
Aquaman - a fun over the top ride. Really liked Patrick Wilson’s character and a lot of the visuals. Again, same thoughts as you pretty much.
The Conjuring - a great horror but to me, as time went on, I just started to not like it as much. Still great nonetheless and one I revisit every October.
The Conjuring 2 - I liked the scares more, loved the Warrens relationships with the family and overall, just a more fun movie than the first imo.
Furious 7 - I loved how over the top this one is. As soon as The Rock Rockbottoms Jason Statham I knew that this movie was gonna be a blast. I wish this was the last installment since what comes after this movie...wasn’t...good.
Insidious - one of my favorite horror movies. Love the low quality, grainy look and feel the movie has, love the scares, love the score and music, the comedy and just overall love pretty much everything about this movie
Death Sentence - one of my all time favorite movies. I remember watching this for the first time years ago on cable tv and falling in love with it instantly. Just like you, the revenge action sub genre is one of my favorites
Would love if you reviewed Death Sentence so more people would know of its existence and give it a watch. Keep up the fun content man.
Lmaooooo I love the rant Cody. You’re so right! I HATE spoilers but that isn’t a spoiler and you have to take responsibility if you go around looking for details and get a spoiler
Death Sentence was a very good number one. If for nothing else then that parking garage scene being shot in one take alone. That movie is rarely talked about but when it is it’s praised and for good reason.
Digging your Iron Maiden shirt, Cody. I feel like I have to watch a few more James Wan films before I can properly judge him.
Great ranking. “Death Sentence” is absolutely badass and I agree that it doesn’t get the adoration and respect it deserves. Some truly iconic and brutal imagery along, surprisingly emotional moments and Charlie Clouser’s score shreds.
Thanks Cody! I consider myself a James Wan fan and I had no idea Death Sentence exists. I'll definitely check it out, it sounds awesome. Hopefully I'll get to watch Malignant soon.
Nice ranking! I’d love to see a Sam Raimi ranking eventually!
I'm guessing he'll do one after Doctor Strange 2.
Man, I love death sentence. Been trying to spread the word about this, blue ruin and the guest to everyone.
Love Death Sentence. Didn't have a car when it came out on DVD. So I walked an hour to the nearby Wal-Mart, bought it, walked back, and watched on repeat all night.
Dope video 🤙🏼
Charlie Clouser is one of the Very Best Composers For Saw Including others Klaus Badelt, Hans Zimmer, Steve Jablonsky, And Christopher Young
I saw Malignant yesterday... and the twist saw after a minute... when they show the socks from Gabrielle :D
I am someone who HATES ANYYY spoilers, and I totally agree! I don’t watch reviews because I recognize that it’s impossible to review a movie without saying something I would consider a spoiler. Sorry if you’ve received any hate regarding that. Stoked every time you make a video! But I always wait to watch them just in case.
Saw will likely always be my favorite James Wan movie. Also, I'm glad to come across another Dead Silence fan as I have never quite understood the negativity it receives.
Things I Love Death Sentence, Jigsaw, Saw, James Wan, Leigh Wannel, Punisher, And Punisher War Zone
I clicked on your directors ranking playlist and I saw a thing that said private video and I said oh yeah
THANK YOU CODY!
Great ranking, love his movies😀👌
Saw and Dead Silence started the all for mee👏
I think Dead Silence was also forgotten because it came out there same time as 300, which was obviously a big box office hit.
Man I felt like I was the only one who’s loves death sentence, I’m going to watch it tonight now. I agree with your rankings, James Wan is a fantastic director.
I’ve never heard of Death Sentence. Now I have something new I want to check out.
I am disappointed in myself for not knowing about Death Sentence! I will be watching it as soon as I get home! Great ranking, love James Wan!
Dude! I love to hear opinion. Keep doing you
Hell yes! Love the Iron Maiden shirt btw.
nice t-shirt bro, have you listened iron maiden`s new album senjutsu? awesome album imo
I agree with you on Death Sentence! I've always really liked it & thought it was underrated. My second honestly is probably Malignant, followed by Dead Silence. You're right tho, all of James Wan films have been good to great, I just happen to appreciate these 3 the most.
Hey Cody. Can you review Michael Mann movies like Heat, Collateral, Last of The Mohicans etc. Mann is my favourite director when i think about crime thrillers. This guy just got it.
I love the Iron Maiden shirt,can you do an album review of Senjitsu?It's solid not there best but it's Maiden!
Death Sentence for me has to be my number one. I just love the whole revenge flick and you really feel for Kevin Bacon's character and you just really want him to fuck up that gang. Great film!
Thanks for giving death sentence some love! The ending is very taxi driver
Nice ranking. Also nice Iron Maiden shirt. What are your thoughts on their new album?
Death sentence is my favorite film he made, also love aquaman
Oooooo Kevin Bacon. I haven't seen Death Sentence yet. Super excited to give it a watch.
I must add that this is basically a collection of my favourite horror movies. James Wan is amazing. Good list. Sweet stuff. Top notch.
You get a like from me because Dead Silence was one of the first horror films I saw, before Saw. I want to review this movie one day and I 100% agree that it is underrated. It's the first horror movie I engaged in.
Death sentence is my favorite James Wan movie too! I fucking love it. It’s badass!
Hey Cody the blue ray you have of death sentence does it have the unrated version or just the theatrical version?
So good to see death sentence at number 1. Such an awesome film
Interesting list but I do agree with most of the things that you said Cody, anyway can’t wait for those hellraiser reviews and the other reviews you got planned for the rest of the movies in 2021 like Halloween kills or antlers
Omfg I don't remember death sentence being a James Wan movie!!! That is such a great movie!!! I can totally agree with your whole list (except aquaman😅) love your horror content. Keep up the awesome work!👏🙌
I was pretty surprised at Insidious 2 being bottom of your list I really like that one n your rankings are usually pretty similar to my own
Love the characters of the first conjuring, but what really sucked me in is I always felt like they were legitimately in danger. Seemed like a lot of movies around the time you were never really worried for anyone. The Conjuring made me think anything could happen.
Also, Death Sentence had such a wonderful song in it, which is Pilot Speed - I'm Not Alright!!!
I completely agree with what you said about spoilers.
I Like Carry Elwes as an Actor In Princess Bride, Glory, Kiss The Girls, Saw 7: The Final Chapter Aka Saw 3D, Liar Liar, And New Years Eve
