Nocturnal animals might be one of the most underrated movies ever

Always look forward to these monthly videos from you! You describe what you’ve watched without giving too much away and keep the suspense up at the same time. Appreciate you 🫡 Btw, Children of Men has been one of my favorites for years now. Glad you got around to watching it. Brilliant film.

The Hunt is such a great movie, but I always find it hard to recommend because it’s so difficult to express why that subject matter ends up being so compelling.

I'm a really huge fan of yours, from Brazil! Thanks a lot for all your videos you produce with such a great content and suggestions! I try to follow all of them! Regards!

I watched Children of Men for the first time in June too! So sad and so stressful 😭 Another Round is a great film, so glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks for the wrap up, Emma! Hereditary is one of my favorite films and I watch it a couple of times a year. Like you say, it's very rewatchable. I finally saw Pearl this month, and I absolutely loved it. Looking forward to Maxxxine.

Lots of great stuff this month! Children of Men! Anything with Mads! The monolith that is Hereditary! The Queen’s Gambit blew me away. When it was over, I immediately tried to look up the true story behind it, only to find out that there wasn’t one! Totally had me fooled thinking it was a biopic.

Another Round is brilliant!! Such an honest take on alcohol. Got it in my collection 🍻 Got The Piano Teacher too

I've been following your content for years and I love it. Actually, I grew up without friends who enjoyed horror as much as I do, and as a girl, I'm pretty happy to have found you. You're amazing. 😊

So happy it’s that time of the month!! Love your recommendations. Love your taste in movies. Love how vague but intriguing your reviews are!! Huge fan from another continent! 💗

Nocturnal Animals is such a special film :) Great Wrap Up as always

Incendies and Nocturnal Animals are top of my watch list now when I next have movie time based on this video Emma. I have seen many of what you have been watching 👍

Some of these have been on my watch lost for quite some time. Your recommendations always bump them up a notch 🤓

It's so funny you mentioned films with Mads cuz I just rewatched Hannibal! 😂 I watched The Hunt because of your videos and now I'm gonna check out Another Round!! A Mads Marathon!!

I don’t think there’s a single monthly wrap-up I’ve missed

Love ur monthly recaps.. we definitely have the same taste in movies. I often tell ppl the only thing more boring than watching grass grow is watching a movie where everything works out in the end, everyone goes home happy, and the world is left in a perfect state. Life is messy, love is messy, family is messy, everything is messy. If u want a fairy tale go watch a Disney movie lol Beauty is in truth and in the embracing of life as is. I’m reminded of a quote in Alfonso Cuarons “Y Tu Mama Tambien” (fully recommend if u haven’t seen it)…. Life is like the surf, so give yourself away like the sea. We can’t control the ocean, the surf, all we can do is acknowledge its immense power and enjoy the moments we are gifted, bumps and all. Thank you for ur videos, they certainly add one of those waves in the surf of life, good entertainment, honest opinions, and a person who is passionate about something in this life, and u can’t help but find it a tiny bit infectious at times!

June was definitely a journey... Great recommendations Emma! Thank you so much

Cool, I watched Ghostwatch this month as well, hadn't heard of it. I saw it mentioned with regards Late Night With the Devil. Made me miss Parky. A good Mads Mikkelsen film to try is Adam's Apples. Not a horror, it's difficult to describe for me really, the tone, it's more of a comedy. I enjoyed it quite a bit. The Danes make such good films and watching that film really highlighted that gap in my knowledge, which still exists to be honest, but I have seen quite a few more since.

Grave of the Fireflies is the only movie to make me actually cry streams

Great round up! I wanted to rewatch Nocturnal Animals so badly that I just bought it when I couldn't find it streaming hahaha!!

Great review emma 😊

Wow you watched so many of my favourite films for the first time this month. Children of Men must be my all time favourite film. So great. I watch it pretty much every year. The Piano Teacher! Grave of the Fireflies! Was Incendies also a first time? If so add that to the list! Still holding out for In A Violent Nature!

Hey, the hunt is my favorite movie of all time. I'm glad to see some love for it.

Happy 4th of July Emma 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🛼🛼👼🏻👼🏾🧸🎠🌟🤠🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🌈

The Piano Teacher story I had you may find funny, many years ago, one summer me and my friends went out to the videoclub to rent The Pianist for a night of pizza and movie, a friend and me were responsible to get the movie, but The Pianist was all rented out, so... we saw The Piano Teacher close by obviously and thought, huh why not. Well, you can imagine the pizza movie night we had. We were banned from choosing movies again. ( I still find it an interesting weird character study lol)

Just watched Incendies , very emotional and well made . Yet another of your great recommendations that I never heard of before and ended up really liking .

I need to check out 'In A Violent Nature,' but I'm not sure what I'll make of it since it's kind of gotten mixed reviews. Also, I'm a little worried my expectations might be too high.

What a lot of good movies you watched this month!! And pleaaaaase could you make a video talking about your schedule in a day and how you organized your day to watch a lot of movies…. Like a day in my life but in depth so we can know how to do it if we want to watch movies 🙏🏻💜

Man Another Round is such a hard hitting movie. I cried a lot at the end, but it was more out of catharsis than anything. That last scene is so so good. Also please do a Longlegs Come With Me -- at this point I need to see it but I'm not normally a horror girlie and I am legitimately really freaked out by it 😅

Lots of great watches this month Em! I can't remember if I commented on your video, but I still plan to check out I Saw the TV Glow. I know you said it's a slow burn, but it sounds super interesting.

Omg yeeeey🙌🏾❤️❤️❤️

0:25 After Hours! Linda Fiorentino is in this film. She is an amazing actress that disappeared short after being in Men In Black...

Thanks for sharing your list of films you saw this month, Emma. "After Hours", I haven't seen that film since it first came out and yet I can still remember it well. Need to hide, the papier mâché artist has an idea. 😉

I watched Ghostwatch the night it originally aired. Absolutely loved it. I think it has only been shown on tv once since and that was recently.

Hi Emma - The soundtrack to Mysterious Skin is really good as is the cinematography. Sadly , the movie is a bit disappointing ultimately but still worth a watch.

The monthly wrap up is always so fun :) I think I might watch After Hours this week.

Thanks

Have you watched the British TV show Inside No. 9? If you haven't, it is a fantastic anthology show. Each season has six episodes and they are 30 minutes long. The each episode range from horror, thriller, drama, comedy, found footage, that's just a small selection of genres mentioned. It stars Steve Pemberton & Reece Sheersmith who write & star in each episode, creators of Psychoville & co-creators of The League of Gentlemen.

I wish you a Happy 4TH Of July. Excellent all around

In Hereditary, at the end in the tree house, it’s reminiscent of the nativity scene but the hell version in a sense. Also, the muffled noises in the opening credits is likely from the followers of Paimon chanting. These are some things I noticed when I rewatched it. That mysterious breath outside may also be from his vigilante followers.

If you like bad girls club you should watch baddies… it’s a new spin off by Natalia nunn as a director. It’s insane

YES FINALLY SOME NOCTURNAL ANIMALS LOVE! One of my favorite films, I'm actually reading the book it's based on right now.

OmG! Miracle Mile! WOOOOH!👏

Incendies is such a great film and also contains the most disturbing gasp I've ever heard in a movie. The context is disturbing but the gasp itself is on another level. Iykyk

Nice video

Everyone needs to see the contestant!!!! It is bonkers!

Some incredible watches. You REALLY need to check out Lilya 4-Ever and The broken circle breakdown....if you want to be destroyed.

children of men is spectacular and heartbreaking, glad you got to see!

You always surprise me! I would never expected you watching bad girls club 😂 I HATE that I LOVE that show 😢

Nocturnal animals is so anxiety inducing

I think too many had problems with High Tension cause they watched the English dubbed version which I cant imagine watching that version. Original language with English subs all the way always 😎👌

I could comment on many of these, but it’s interesting you have two movies by danish director Thomas Vinterberg on here. Have you seen ”The Celebration” from 1998 by him? I think i was his breakthrough, done in ”Dogma”-style. About a big celebration of an elderly father, and things doesn’t turn up as expected ... People still talk about that one. Disturbing, but not horror.

The Devil’s Bath? Why are people not talking about this one? It’s shocking.

I'm surprised you didn't mention Thom Yorke from Radiohead (since you love that band) when you initially talked about "Incendies". That scene when the music started playing, is one of the most memorable scenes in the movie. If you don't love Hereditary, we can't be friends lol I'm looking forward to Ari Aster's next noir-western-dark comedy film, "Eddington".

So if Mads is playing a teacher, watch the hell out. Also, is "Night Shyamalan" the whole last name? Combined?

Everything I watched on June 2024 -Sanjuro ❤️ -Stir of Echos -Woman in the Dunes ❤️ -Krampus -Midnight Run ❤️ -Glass Onion 🤢 -Anatomy of a Murderer ❤️ -The Plot Against America ❤️ -Flowers of Shanghai -Eve’s Bayou -Skinamarink -Little Women (2019) -Lady Bird -Serial Mom ❤️ -Inside Man -Jungle Fever (1991) -Perfect Days -Broker -Elvira, Mistress of the Dark -Sound of Metal -Black Sabbath -I Saw the Tv Glow -Uncle Buck -Werckmeister Harmonies ❤️ -Everybody Wants Some!! -All That Jazz -Fitzcarraldo ❤️ -Nosferatu (1979) ❤️ -The Housemaid -Ali: Fear Eats the Soul -Slacker -Square Dance -Take Shelter -Kinds of Kindness ❤️ -Godzilla vs Destoroyah

Thoughts on Nosferatu trailer???

Bag of lies or baghead? Which one you prefered? I have only Seen baghead.

I watched The Piano Teacher because of this I kept putting it off. Loss for words and the ending gives me no clarity. Ive been with someone that wanted crazy things like that and I had to cop out before anything.

Cheers to this post, that is all 😅🤘🏼

Druk (Another Round) is one of those movies, where you'll get more out of it, if you live in a society that has a drinking culture like that. I live in Denmark, and every time I talk with international friends about drinking culture, they're always shocked at how normalised our rampant drinking is

Hereditary deserves 5 stars 🙃

Very shock u haven't seen Children of Men, its a classic, easily a top 3 dystopian film

I'm fairly new to your channel, and am curious if you've ever seen the movie Hard Candy? If you haven't, I highly recommend it!

@spookyastronauts unrelated to horror can you (or anyone) recommend a YT content creator that could guide me though the "Star Wars" franchise including Films, TV Series and Anime? I probably seen about 6 of the movies and only the first season of "The Mandalorian". Specifically which order should they be watched and what to avoid? Sorry to go off topic.

Your month DOES sound intense! Also I was wondering if you use any platform like Letterboxd but for series? Thanks!

Ohhh i shook you hadn't seen Children of men yet hahaha - still my favourite since early 2000s

I never comment but hey! I'd already read The Watchers before I watched the movie. I HATED the book. Like 4/10 being generous but I gave the movie 8/10 haha!

I watched 65 movies in June. There were a lot of turds and rewatches. For new movies that I watched for the first time I would say my favorites were The King Tide, In A Violent Nature, Lovely, Dark, and Deep, and What You Wish For. Runners up would be I Saw The TV Glow and The Watchers. The biggest turd was Under Paris.

Watch Tell Them You Love Me, very disturbing documentary on Netflix. In a Violent Nature was solid- had a meditative feel and the gore was amazing, just wish there were a couple more memorable kills (like yoga one). Also didn't love the ending.

High Tension is amazing until the ending 😑

Sometbing even crazier is The contestant is a true story ( or based on) 😭😭😭

The Watchers. Seen that movie hundreds of times. You should 100% watch In a violent Nature even if you end up not liking it. It was a great effort. Pontypool is so good. Miracle Mile was awesome. Also, I watched Hereditary and didn't like it. Maybe, if I'd seen it in 2018, but I found that women annoying as hell😏

The problem with Watchers is that it was only PG/PG-13 level scares which means no scares.

Twenty three

What a coincidence, I just saw after hours for the first time recently

you should definitely watch s**cide club and noriko's dinner table if you havent

The only movie I've never rewatched is Grave of the Fireflies. I'm an older sibling and it depressed me for weeks afterward.

How do you stay sane, Emma?

Have you heard of the new German supernatural horror film the devils bath?

I've looked around your content, excuse me if I'm wrong but I haven't seen you talk about "LongLegs". Are you interested in watching that movie?

OMG WHAT?? Emma likes THE BAG GIRLS CLUB?!!!! Yasssssssss omg Emma watch THE BADDIES!!! It’s practically the same girl s or the same concept but this is what they can’t show in reality Tv on cable this is the bad girls club but uncensored and explicit what they can’t show on TV

the twist of m nights the watchers is that.. SPOILERS ALERT ..there's no twist.

YESSSS to bad girls club

You're JUST seeing Cast Away?

I had a nervous breakdown when Tom Hanks loses "something'" in Castaway, I cried and cried and cried Emma, I don't think this is a spoiler but you decide. Remove it if you need to.

Timestamps

5:52 the 2020 one is better 11:26 its based off of a book? Hopefully its better than the movie. 15:20 more like ponty dump 16:38 best movie in this video so far 27:28 the worst movie on the list tbh

gotta be careful when talking about "reality" tv shows. They are not actually reality, none of them are. The reason for that is that there is a conflict of interest between entertainment and reality. As we all know, reality is actually quite boring a lot of the time. Unfortunately a tv show can't afford to have this occur, so almost nothing about a reality show is reality. They would not allow an entire episode to be non-entertaining, so they infuse drama, they force people to discuss things they otherwise wouldn't. So especially when a show is involving people with potential mental health issues, you should just be a little careful just straight up calling it a reality show. I know that's what it's considered, but it's just not accurate. TV producers aren't going to just stomach a stretch where they go multiple episodes with nothing particularly interesting happening. So in order to make money and bring attention they are going to lie and manipulate the show so that it IS entertaining no matter what. I know you don't mean anything malicious by calling it a reality show, I guess I'm just a little concerned that more and more of the population seems to genuinely think that it's just a house where they place cameras around and that's all of the manipulation that occurs. There are meetings, there are discussions about what to talk about and when. There are certainly times where the producers tell the participants what to do, how to do it and the only reason I know that is because of money. No one is going to be so into the art of a reality show that they are going to risk NOT garnering the audience's attention just to make a piece of art. Therefore, it's basically all fake or heavily heavily manipulated and some reality shows are just downright scripted. I'm sure this is a little more raw than something like the Bachelor, which is just completely a foregone conclusion and they just make every decision to get the most viewers, but it's still nowhere near actual reality.
