Yeah I couldn’t sit and watch the girls’ be tortured

Oh no I haven’t finished the review oh no

Honestly Hereditary will always be that for me. It has to this day the single most shocking death in cinema to me as well as pure, unfiltered anguish of the family after it

@@camerongrondzki2716 The abrupt halting of everything right after the car scene felt like an eternity. One of the best moments in cinematic history!

Lake Mungo is a must watch for people like me that believe in the super natural and greater forces outside our control. I don't like murder or torture movies because I always carry a big iron on my hip and wonder why the victims didn't.

I came to say the same thing . It wasn’t safety glass and he kept pushing her to bang harder. It took 70 stitches and left significant scar I believe she sued after.

Oh my God. What an asshole. I work in film for a living and I've heard of some directors asking too much of actors, thankfully I'm an audio engineer so the worst I get is bad deadlines but Jesus, I hope she was compensated at the very least.

I remember seeing her in Deadly Class - her scar kinda went along with her badass character.

That's shitty. What an awful director.

I think there was something up with Beth to begin with as well that the rest of her family could see in her….although by the end she is also strangely aware of that part of herself too.

Actually to me that means she's not broken but she's finally better. Leave better. She used to prefer her fantasy and her sister even said she needed a reality check. Now it seems she's strong enough to finally make her fantasies into reality.

this is exactly what i thought too!! especially because the dolls faces looked exactly like theirs did.

Oh I didn't think of all this but yall are so right Where could we look to find out ?

I now feel like the dolls could actually be other girls (seen as dolls in her fantasy/reality daze) but the problem I have with that is this is supposed to be the aunts house. So either the killers got them even before the movie started and the drive was also not real (which is why one said to the other she wouldnt be able to handle the story in the news paper) Or it would seem as if the killers where squatters at the aunts place (maybe the aunt isn't even real and she just needed something in her mind as to where they were going after being kidnapped) Not making them a target in the 1st place. They really didn't come after them for flipping them off. The killers were just coming to what the killers were calling home at the time. She didn't see signs of people possibly living there because she was in her fantasy daze then as well? I say this from having lived in a place far out like this which makes it very easy to hear someone driving up to this house. There were way to many things that made it seem like the killers were very familiar with this house.

Yes, thats the answer. She makes them dolls in her mind to deal with the trauma of seeing other children get r*ped.

I thought this too! Especially at the end when she is being wheeled out and she sees the "dolls" in cages and who have obviously been subjected to torture (one has a bag wrapped around it's head)

I agree, it’s a well made movie but a little too real for my taste

It's entertainment and part of the fun comes from separating fiction from fact. Not to mention, horror movies love using believable settings and plotlines as basis for the movie's story. It's quite a common thing horror movies have been doing for years. Taking the familiar and making it something to fear. I agree the story is pretty fucked up and a little depressing but I think there were a lot worse horror movies that have grislier things happen to the protagonists. Then there's that the story is a pretty exaggerated version of unlikely to happen events.

I fail to see how someone could check out to such a extreme extent? I’ve seen the very extremes of the human condition as well as worked with others who dealt with things that make me physically unwell to even think about let alone survive and yet neither I nor they completely loss touch with reality. I know people can actually have a complete disassociations but how is something I fail to understand.

@@RomanvonUngernSternbergnrmfvus The reality blocking that Beth does in the movie is completely impossible voluntarily I think. The movie is trying to depict her giving up and daydreaming a better reality.

@@RomanvonUngernSternbergnrmfvus We know it happens. You not being able to imagine it doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. In most situations like this, we simply wouldn’t get the exact psychological experience of any given person, but we know extreme trauma can very easily cause disassociation from reality.

“I didn’t hear no bell.”

Maybe God shouldn't have let them experience those traumas to begin with. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@@englishatheart God brings about the goodness within and unfortunately the devil arrives first and never takes breaks, these acts were of demonic entities (mental illness, sado-sadistic torture, pain, suffering)…

Stop with your long winded excuses for why he can’t or doesn’t do anything.. it’s pitiful.. we need to fix our situations ourselves, not wait for some man on a cloud to do it.

So, I see it as three possible endings: 1. The entire movie after entering the house is just Vera's story / imagination. Vera was the one who narrated the story, and everything is from her perspective. We don't know if anyone ever did show or appeared. This would explain all the inconsistency. 2. They are still trapped and/or are probably dead and the ending is the last few moments of life before she is sent away in her dream like state. 3. They really did escape and there are hints as to how and why. First, if we assume that there really are killers on the loose, its possible they are being tracked down by the police since their actions are recorded. Vera's mental state from there on forward makes sense and we can allow the events to keep going from there. We can then assume that people know the mother and daughters are visiting a certain house, but never responded or left the house since. It appears that a good period of time elapsed since then as the sister knows the woman and man's actions at this point, as evidence by how beat up she is. The sisters escaping also isn't too out of question as there are items the girl can use to hurt and incapacitate the man. And, her creative mind would know how to distract the woman and escape. It all appears more possible as its not as much as conveniences as they are possibilities. The sisters being able to escape is real and finding police officers isn't that out of question as the sisters could have been walking along the side of the road for a while until officers took notice and pulled over. The movie can then shoot it as if we are uncertain if its apart of the dream or real world, but the actions and possibility are way more realistic, especially when the men get shot and the girls are forced to return. This was what made the ending feel more real and possible. There is a possibility that the men survived and called for backup or the police force noticed they were missing and sent officers to the area. Since the house door never appears to always be closed, and there was a lot of racket coming from upstairs, I'd assume an officer would come in (gun drawn) to assess the situation. Seeing two grown people assaulting little girls is cause for alarm. Then, as the girls are being sent away, we know that the type writer is outside on the ground, so I'd assume the mom and glass window are what is a dream. She could dream that part of the house was not broken as it would go against how she sees her mom. Nothing is wrong when her mom is in the picture. Her mom beat the bad guys, took care of her sister, gives her encouragement, and the area around the mother looks fresh, good, new, and as if there are no problems. But, I'm leaning towards the first one because that one feels silly. : D

@@rewt3406 the unreliable narrator? Yeah, it is the best theory

@@rewt3406 Vera or Beth? Bc Beth is the writer after all

WELL I THINK THIS MOVIE WAS FAKE AF

@@MrEquusQuagga i mean, it is a movie tho

yup you are damn right. That is exactly what I feel too.

My thoughts too.

I was thinking exactly the same!

Agreed. 1st thing I thought when I saw the pic was *hubby & child* ,,not father as he alluded to

I’m surprised he didn’t make that assumption but rather a father we have had no info or visual to at all.

It was obviously the husband and son. Haha I don't know how he got that obvious one wrong.

I also thought that was her husband. Didn't think about the jester being her son though. I totally see it now!

He says “clear inspiration for her fantasy family”.

In my opinion it’s made very clear that the real events are twisted by her fantasies. So even if they did find them, things didn’t play out as shown. So it’s very likely that they were put into the candy truck instead of an ambulance.

The police talk also mentioned the name of the aunt, thus the house... Not that complicated...

I think that you saw comments about that and now you think that. But you didn't actually think that when you were watching the movie. Also I don't believe that they are at all. It would make no sense for the movie. As all the 5 girls from the previous family's were found already

I saw it a few years ago and, as a person who’s watched just about every horror movie that has come out since I was born (1976), this was the first that both surprised and excited me in at least 20 years. I LOVED it and immediately recommended it to every other horror aficionado I knew. It’s a great movie!!!

you're supposed to spoil it for the people reading comments instead of watching

@@slyseal2091 the video does that anyway. no point.

@@arifhossain9751 we can’t even sit through movies, that’s why we come here. You think we can sit through KZfaq videos? 😉

@@asuma7683 yes! I felt the same way.

Exactly, as someone with C-PTSD I can say with confidence that sometimes, imagening a happy ever after for myself is what gives me the strength to keep going in my worst moments. Because suffering when there seems no light at the end of the tunnel creates despair and if there's anything that actually gets a person to commit suicide then its despair and having no hope left.

Vera fought back too, she attacked the big killer, hurt his leg while Beth was hallucinating. She says so when she puts her sister in the wardrobe to hide before the thin killer goes down in the basement. She crippled his leg so hard he has to use a crutch to walk in when Beth is displayed on the counter of dolls, but they made her pay, so of course to survive as much as possible she tries to play along after that.

You should try to suspend your disbelief more. What's the point of coming here to gloat about how intelligent you are for seeing this twist coming?

@@Sheridan2LT He just shared his oppinion, you huge offended snowflake.

@@Sheridan2LT What planet do you live on that this is gloating to you?

@@BooksandBuns eh screw that guy some people just want to argue instead of talk

@@RomanvonUngernSternbergnrmfvus I get that, but this is just ridiculous reaching. I don't think even Mr Fantastic could reach that fucking far!

This is a nice take but if it were to be the truth the director should've provided more evidence hinting such. I think the ending is just more straightforward than not, aside from the non broken window the type writer supposedly was thrown out of... although that could've been Beth's imagining as well.

I liked your summary but my counter point would be why would she imagine her sister with a busted up face if she wasnt really getting beat by the things she was trying to phase out of her mind.

youre thinking about it way too much. vera didnt die

@@csl9495 I don't think that's the same window. We see the driver look outside the window after Beth threw the typewriter through of it, there are big trees in front of it. Couldn't explain why it ended up there though, maybe it slid off the lean-to's roof or something. Mostly I guess that scene is not meant to be dissected that much lol.

That was very obvious, also the jester boy was obviously her son as her son also wore a jester costume now we know why. The lady from the soup add poster was the lady that interviewed her in her fantasy world and so on

Closer to a 6 than an 8

@@ozb1010 you do know 7 is between 6 and 8, right?

Taylor also sued the director because she has a very visible scar due to this movie, as the director forced her to smash real glass.

@らてちゃん if i remember correctly, that scene that gave her the scar was the last scene she filmed for the movie. that’s why you can’t see it during the movie at any point.

i never tought of it like that, at the very begining of the movie theres a kid running at the road , apparently trying to catch the car of the family, however he stops when he reaches the road and lets the car pass by , i assume this is another victim, that managed to escape, however for this to be true he must have escaped from the house (since its the only house in the area), and if he escaped from the house there would be signs, blood, caged dolls outside, beer bottles?,etc so the mother would have never gone into there, also right before the mother got attacked she recieved a "call" that sounds very much like the "call" vera gave beth later to get her out of her delusion, as a kid i once tried to read while in a car at night, its rather hard and beth didnt sttuter once,how would vera even have a police cap hand functional handcuffs, so what i think actually happened was that the fat man and the travestite(witch and ogre) either attacked beth and mother at their home/at the road/at the store (leaning to store), where they kept other victim (vera) in their truck due to the kid escaping, there both vera and beth tried running away but due to the witch having a car he managed to catch up quickly and shoot both officers down by possing as the mother while he approached, then witch drove beth and vera in mothers car, while ogre took the truck, which he crashed, explaining his injury, when they got to the home , mother woke up and tried to regain strengh for a bit before she attacked but witch was very aware of her "dont look at me" was not directed at beth but at mother, who attacked when witch taunted her by slapping beth, witch shoot the mother and then proceeded to kill her while beth watched , i think this covers most plot holes, im very sure about the order of things at least, witch could have not catched up to beth/vera , maybe not even find them, and most ceirtanly was not able to mantain such extreme accuracy after running for an entire night, this also explains the white truck passing by and most "plot holes" but leaves others open , such as why does beth "knows" saw irl places in the house in her delusion, what does it mean when the black cop tries to report that they found 2 girls and recieves a response that they had already found them, or how did the villians fix the truck if ogre truly crashed it, why none of the emergency care workers seemed perturbed/upset about the house, and how in the world ogre didnt manage to house down, the biggest mystery to me is the aunt , its posible that the house was indeed from the aunt and that she lived/collabored with the villians or that the villians moved just as she died, im sure i missed countless details

Lol why do people like y'all even bother watching movies when you come up with a completely new plot in your head. When movies are ambiguous or use metaphors, there are always actual things that hint at what's real. But when you just rewrite the entire thing in your head and come away with wildly different plot points you're just making up things at this point.

Well that's dark lol

its really not that incredible. some people are very good at describing things, expressive with language. He's one of em. It's just like taking a dump. Either you can say you took a dump (simple, direct) or you can say that you experienced one of the most reliable functions of human evolution, in which a burrito entered through your mouth, enjoying the Disney Land of mazes that is our intestines before being signed, sealed and delivered through nature's mailslot, sliding down like a child at a playground (being fluid with language, manipulating language). I think some people are better with language than others..some people can define things in simple terms, others can exaggerate and be more expressive. If you break down the first 3 acts of a movie into singular units, then you can just paraphrase what happened in each one. Add the interlude, beginning, and end, and then you have a foundflix episode. He does a great job at that and he OBVIOUSLY has a very good grasp of language/creative writing/using big words/etc. Plus he adds in his little quirky personality. But I believe that you can do it too..plus he gets thousands of dollars per month for doing these videos, so that'll motivate anyone to make a good video.
