What I like about A24 is they aren’t interested in making sequels. They give small directors a platform to show their work and maybe make it big in the future.

Tusk was actually kind of interesting because I went from hating the main guy and itching to see him get fucked up by the old guy, but then that just went like “oh, oh, OH. OK. OK. I THINK THATS ENOUGH. OK. TOO FAR.” And then rooting for his escape. Like it wasn’t an masterpiece at all but it definitely surprised me and I had a good time watching it.
Tusk occupies the same space that The Human Centipede does, the "Why do you exist" place the "I think we really need to check the directors basement at all costs" sort of place
Even though it’s the worst I would be most terrified of being in Tusk

Is it horrifying tho? I find it sad but fascinating
When it comes to the lighthouse I feel like the uncertainty of events is important because madness is unclear by its nature
Still have the lighthouse fog horn as my morning alarm. Wakes me up everytime. It's like waking up from a nightmare, makes me jump every morning.
Midsommar is one of the few horror/thriller films I’ve watched that stayed on my mind for a couple of weeks. It was just such an odd experience and was truly surreal. I’d hold it as one of my favourite horror films for many reasons, whether it be the gore, the seemingly idyllic/utopian cult ground, the fact it’s primarily shot in daytime as well as having a vibrant colour palette, the good acting and mostly normal reactions of the victims. Not a perfect film, but a very good one in my eyes

I guess it wasn’t terrible but I just felt like the entire time I already knew what the outcome of the movie was going to be. It didn’t challenge me in any way. It just felt too forced, like “here’s these people and you’re supposed to be creeped out by them and you know they’re going to do something bad in the end” but visually I guess it was kinda neat

@@sabrinatscha2554 Damn for me the whole horror came from knowing that they were getting into a dangerous place that looked bright and colorful, i wanted to know what would be catalyst for the horror to begin and the fact that i didn't know the cult's plan, was constant suspense. So psychological and so well done. The outcome is really uncertain for Dani and Christian, actually, i didn't suppose that Dani was going to be the Queen of May until she asked what it was, and i didn't know if she was still in danger... maybe she was going to be sacrificed or tortured while the actual outcome came from a lot of manipulation and again, that's how you make suspense. Also, after every characters' main actions, you know that the consequences will be disturbing. The whole movie is giving you some directions but at the same time is confusing you and the characters constantly. I think the movie doesn't commit serious mistakes but it has some interesting choices that some viewers will dislike. The movie is outstanding nonetheless.

For me the biggest case like that was Mulholland Drive. I watched it with my ex a few years ago and it got under our skin to the point that even days later we had to stop halfway through sex because we both couldn't stop thinking about the movie. It's wild how much good art can affect people.
I love Ari Asters and Robert Eggers‘ movies. They made me love the horror genre
I thoroughly enjoyed this format for reviewing films. Getting everyone’s different takes and all the different editing makes it super entertaining. All these creators definitely earned a subscribe from me!

God, I love Exorcist 3, I just wish they'd gone with naming it Legion as originally intended. Wouldn't have suffered the fate of being the 3rd film in a franchise.
i went on an A24 trailer binge one night, and was super intrigued by the trailer for Tusk. i had never heard of it, just looked like a complete shitpost of a movie. the premise was weird, the motivations were stupid, the jokes were repetitive. but i can't lie, it freaked me out a little. it's depressing that they made it so comedic cause it's SUCH an unironically terrifying premise. They nailed the suit, and the acting was pretty alright, but there was so much lost potential there. the thought of keeping your sanity while slowly turning into that thing is so genuinely horrifying, but wallace is such a douche that you dont feel that bad for him. and they just make it completely comedic and play everything for a cheap joke. frustrating
The Monster worked for me because I resonated with the abusive relationship Lizzie had with her mother. I’m sure this is the obvious take away here but the monster could have been anything or anyone, all that matters is that it is about to tear a family apart, literally and figuratively. And despite what goes on behind closed doors, that primitive survival and protection of your child speaks volumes of how unconditional love is sometimes. Take away my personal resonance and it’s just a fun creature feature, I think the tension is always present and the threat and paranoia are constantly amping up to a nasty 11, we’ve all been stuck somewhere before and I was just completely immersed. It’s so fun to watch these characters go through this emotional journey in a subgenre that normally wouldn’t focus on that.

This kind of collaborative project is what gives platforms and communities like KZread so much potential, i wish we saw more of that. Happy I have so many new creators to follow.
I like how everyone has their own editing style
I didn't love The Witch like seemingly a ton of fans did, but I do love a bunch of other A24 and "slow burn movies". I liked it but I didn't think it was as monumentally incredible as I often hear. I agree that it is objectively impressive on countless fronts though.

All my friends were either to shocked to say anything, or questioning ehat the fuck I just showed them. It was pretty fun to watch.

I really like Typo's take. That was one of the more intellectual and really insightful reviews I've heard. Subscribed!
Everyone did excellent work, hella good video dudes
the lighthouse by halsey really captures the feeling of the lighthouse movie btw
Please do more movie review stuff, I genuinely love this
I think it’s so crazy how different every horror movie a24 puts out is. Hereditary, Midsommar, Green Room, and killing of a sacred deer are some of my favorites however the lighthouse, the witch, and it comes at night are movies I didn’t hate but would definitely never watch again. And even outside horror they’ve made uncut gems and moonlight which are masterpieces in their own right. I’m probably forgetting a few other notable ones but this disparity with a24 is astounding to me
I see you’re a fellow enjoyer of the Micheal Buble Christmas album? Great video and congrats to everyone on it!.
my 1st time here on your channel dude and the only reason I hit that sub button was that intro music lol, great video so far
Don’t be dissin on my veggie boys like that 😭

Got this in my recommended this week, loving every minute of it👌🏼
This video was a lot of fun to watch. Thanks everybody :)
Watching this with headphones and that half second of Jesus walks scared the shit out of me
Yknow, ive never done this before, but this video is the first one ive ever actually paused and watched a movie before continuing the video. Normally i would just ignore it when someone suggested to pause the video and watch the movie before continuing but the lighthouse was different for me. Anyways i watched the lighthouse and i loved it thank you this video
It’s criminal how Johnny Depp was just glossed over during the tusk part like he wasn’t a extremely important part of the movie. Shame on you.
Regarding to the Lighthouse: I think Eggers stated in an Interview, this is what would happen if the two Protagonists, who represent Protheus (Dafoe) and Prometheus (Pattinson) were forced to hang out on this Island . I watched it with several people and the Reactions were too differnt. Simple Minds are just amused by farting and dry humping, some couldn't comprehend the deeper meaning and just saw the conflict between young and old. And then there is my fathers reaction, who blazed a phatty and fell asleep in the first half, because he is more of an Action Movie kinda Guy, and he ain't no sucker for these 'slow burner' Horror Movies. It is similiar to 'The Killing of a Sacred Deer' which also uses greek mythology to tell the story. If you just a person, that enjoys a movie and do not read up the meaning behind that, these movies are not ment for you. It is not like conjuring or It, the horror is subtle and psychologically, not like a monster here, a boo there. A24 has its nische and they represent a certain type of genre.
What was the song playing in the background at 7:03 it sounds familiar but I don’t remember what it’s from/called

Under the Skin till this day is one of my fave A24 films and i don't know why.
A24 are my favorite horror movie distributors and my favorite a24 movie and my favorite movie of all time is the blackcoats daughter, would have loved to see your review on it
I loved the witch, the lighthouse, hereditary, midsommar all the paranormal activities, insidious 1-5, sinister 1 & 2, and all the saw movies, u should know which movies u want to watch at the cinema and the ones u want to watch at home in the dark late at night like the Blair witch project
"The Beak" Fight me rn I love The Monster
I love that each of them, in turn, talked about how they don't like horror movies haha
I thought the beaks segment was pretty good I would just recommend more visualization when you describe the monster why not add a png of the monster or at least a meme. Good review nonetheless
Happy halloween!!!
The lighthouse and under the skin both look interesting/ unique concepts. xx
a good video to end spooky month
To me I thought the alien in under the skin was using men for food. I thought it was why she was shown unable to eat the cake.

By the Shi'ur Qomah, a book of Apocalyptic/Mystic Jewish Philosophy and Theology, God is about 3 miles tall. So if you take that source, Veggietales is correct about God being taller than Godzilla

I love A24. I enjoyed The Witch, Hereditary & other films. But, I'll be damned if I say that I understood The Lighthouse. I almost fell asleep through it.
That intro was pretty damn beautiful, great video
I don't get how people even begin to think that Midsommar's ending was a happy one. HAHAHA. If you're one of them... please be careful around cults.
Thank you for making this video so long.
i love that more than one person in this video dunks on Conjuring 3 and its budget 😂
Great video.. I feel the Hole in the Ground review is... a bit lacking though. I mean, the movie is no masterpiece by any definition of the word, but it has a lot more to say and works a lot better than the review makes it seem. I kinda feels like the guy watched it once, decided it was shit and went on pointing out how the inner logic of the movie is weird rather than trying to look deeper into it... even though it's essentially a heavily metaphorical story... Not saying the review is invalid because of it, I just feel there's more to the movie than 'oh there's a hole but no one sees it??? it's like so bigggg though??? whaaaaaat?' like... ok?

I disagree Scrabbl was the weakest. He didn’t even pay attention to the film, which is why his film analysis was pretty garbage. And I thought the film was nothing special. BUT… Before the mom confronts the kid she puts sleeping medication into the food which is why he falls asleep next to her. There was an entire scene showing this. Which means he was probably on his phone or not engaged. He didn’t even do research on the folklore of the film.

@@PauseFilms It wasn't specifically shown how she put the meds into the food, it was only implied when the empty box was shown in the trash, which yeah went over my head. But tbf I was taking notes the entire time and probably missed the part, or didn't get what it meant when watching. This doesn't change my opinion of the movie in the slightest. It's still a subaverage movie imo. I admit my part wasn't even an analysis of the movie. Because I didn't like the movie, I decided that it would be best to just do something entertaining instead of going into details and analyse why I didn't like the movie. That's not what my part is. But I can see how, being in a video with so many great movie analyses, my part would appear as a low-effort attempt at achieving what the others did. If I'd ended up liking the movie, I would have taken a more serious approach. I didn't do any further research, because it wouldn't have changed my view on the movie and there would be no point in doing so. My part is just supposed to be silly and entertaining, nothing more and nothing less. Thanks for the feedback
I don't find horror movies scary, but I do enjoy A24 films. ( I have a disassociation disorder so I never forget that movies are not real and cane not be emerged in them) Under the Skin is in my eyes amazing. I saw it once when it came out. But think about it at least once a week.
Awesome video, loved every bit of it. Thanks for having me!
I still think about the lamb and I saw a pre showing of it. A24 make great horror

I remember watching the vvitch in a discord call with some friends. Everyone fucking hated that film, myself included. But credit where credit is due, we didn't stop talking about that film for a solid month because of how good the production was. A24 has that special touch where you might not like what you see, but your going to remember what you saw.
Since Kane pixel is going to direct a movie for A24 it will probably be good since of what he had made.
