Remember Monster House? What a weird film. Produced by ImageMovers, it was a strange motion capture film about a house that could move. The plot was weird. The visuals were weird. And so was the directing. But digging into it a little further this Halloween I came to discover there were more details in the productions! Did you know Dan Harmon was involved to write the movie? Because it got overwritten? And now he denounces the film? What is going on?? Let's revisit this spooky piece with The Untold Underbellu og Monster House...

''How did the house handle previous Halloween nights? Why can't they just repeat whatever worked back then?'' My understanding is that the house only became such a serious threat THIS Halloween because Horace was usually there to keep it under control until this year. HE was what worked before, but now he's in the hospital, so there's nobody home to keep unsuspecting trick or treaters away from the house before it can lure them in and attack them.

The worst part is this: A normal human would have probably been killed by the fall. Constance has quite a bit of bulk on her, so the most the fall would do is badly injure her, maybe even paralyze her. And seeing as how her corpse is facing up when the kids find her, she had to watch as the cement fell on her, covering her from head to toe, unable to get back up because of the pain she was in. There's no telling how long Nebercracker was out cold, but he was probably out for a few hours, allowing for the cement to dry and suffocate his wife. So while the fall wouldn't have killed her, the suffocation she suffered definitely did her in.

You asked about previous Haloweens and why the house was targeting DJ. Well the answer to both is Nevercracker, he could have kept kids away previous years and his heart attack happened as he was yelling at DJ. Even though its obviously not his fault the house might hold a grudge against him.
@stuntboy0372 Жыл бұрын
It's actually shown in the movie that the house does hold a grudge against DJ. After Nevercracker is driven away in the ambulance, and the boys are looking back at the house, we get the shot through the window. And in the shot in the window, we can see the class crack in a way that it crosses over DJ's neck in the angle.

Monster House is a pretty unique oddity, even if it is a weird look from its motion capture animation, it certainly has a great stop motion look about it. It was certainly a surreal memory back in my childhood days. Also, the uncanny animation works as to help drive it's horror aesthetic; look at any character, and you'll recognise it for the film it comes from.

6:36 Q: How did the house handle other Halloween nights? A: Nebbercracker was there to keep Constance at bay and put up signs to threaten kids to stay away from him and the house. Constance hates the kids for the torment they put her through and definitely wasn’t going to listen to DJ, Chowder, or Jenny. Q: why was the house taunting CJ randomly if it only attacks people on its grounds? A: CJ was the child who caused Nebbercracker to have a heart attack and thus be taken away from her. This child had stolen away the one person who made her feel complete, so now she has a particular grudge towards him for what he had done. This is intensified by how the movie has imagery of the house’s window cracking through CJ after Nebbercracker was taken away to show she wants him dead. And later in the film, it was CJ who tried to get Nebbercracker to move on after Constance had just gotten him back. This one boy was taking away the only person she had left twice, hence her murderous intend towards them.

I thought the "padding" wasn't bad actually, there needed to be build up to actually going into the house when they're so scared of it. If they'd not exhausted other options by having such terrible excuses for authority figures then it would have felt like they weren't actually seeing it as a threat, you know? But the only adult who didn't ignore/laugh at them was too lost in his games to realise they were talking about real life and gave them a video game style solution, I didn't think that was a bad way of leading to the kids doing something as insane as actually going into the mouth of the monster willingly, and thats kind of the only way they could have had them explore the house freely instead of being eaten alive like the other victims. THAT would have been a plot hole, if they got eaten and then were just casually able to wander around, since that should mean the other victims ought to have been able to as well, you know? Alls things considered it reminded me of the ideas behind stories that adults look at and see kids endangered and kids look at and see themselves surviving danger, you know? Dumb mistakes are made that can only come from how young they are, but it works out in the end because they tried anyway

The house was handled in previous years by horace, as the movie says. It also shows how vindictive and defensive the spirit trapped within the house is towards children, and we see that it can recognise people and react to them like a human because it is a house possessed by horace's wife, as the movie shows, which is why it taunts the main character, and uses the basketball on the fat kid and the kite on Keith Richards.

This was done via stop animation? I thought it was just a weird type of CGI animation style? I'm in, some parts do feel like they may have used a little bit of CGI probably to polish it up around the edges. I wouldn't be surprised. But if this is truly mostly or if not all just stop motion animation, then God damn. I would have never guessed. I thought it was just a type of animation style to set the atmosphere and mood. Honestly in my opinion that is impressive. When to stop motion animation is good enough to the point where you don't even realize it stop motion animation, you just see it as almost cgi, I think that's pretty good. A group of people came together and made something that good by hand instead of just with computers. That kind of gives me more of an appreciation for it.

I enjoy Dazzs videos on films, but I keep noticing times where the questions hes pointing out as flaws in the content for not filling are...actually very much answered in the film? Like, it's happened before and now with this film, where there's very blatant answers to why the house has changed its behaviour that the characters bring up multiple times. It kind of feels like Dazz doesn't actually watch the films properly, maybe just skims it while doing something else and then works off of what he remembers from that I swear every video there's comments answering what he claims are potholes or bad crafting of the story 😔

The fact that you just said you haven’t watched Polar Express when you like these movies so much is mind-blowing. Pleeease watch that when you get in the festive mood

I remember seeing this in theatre at 6 and sadly it was so full we had to watch in the first row right off to one side I don't know how people can even pick those seats on purpose

Me and my sister loved this movie as kids and we’d watch it pretty regularly even when it wasn’t anywhere near Halloween. It’s definitely slept on.

1:11 I know this is kinda off topic to the video but is that the damn Trivia Murder Party 2 lobby music playing in the background

Honesty, Monster House was terrifying as a kid. I think I legit thought is was a full on slasher horror movie. Nowadays I say it's more eerie. Also regarding Polar Express. I cannot honestly say I've ever heard anyone *really* lump in the human character designs in with the visual effects and such when they praise the animation.

Wow I saw this as a child and this just unlocked a memory. The main kid character for some reason

Dang I seen this movie when I was like five or something and almost forgot about it until I seen the thumbnail and nostalgia blasted me!

Ahh... I used to love this movie as a kid and I still do. I remember once when I was in 1st or 2nd grade I drew the house (in monster form, like the thumbnail of this video) in one of my school books and the teacher was so creeped out she talked to my parents about it LMAO
