[00:00] People keep saying modern horror's

[00:01] trash. They're not wrong about most of

[00:04] it, but I've got 10 movies here that

[00:05] prove genuinely terrifying cinema is

[00:08] alive and well, assuming you can

[00:10] actually find them, which is half the

[00:12] problem. So, starting things off, I'm

[00:13] going to talk about Lake Mungo. And

[00:15] likely, it's probably sitting on some

[00:16] streaming service you've never heard of,

[00:18] charging you 12 bucks a month for the

[00:20] privilege of watching three movies from

[00:22] 2003. I spent more time trying to find

[00:24] this thing legally than I did actually

[00:26] watching it, which is saying something

[00:28] because this movie is slow, really slow.

[00:31] But here's the weird part. I've got

[00:32] crippling ADHD, bad ADHD. It's hard for

[00:35] me to sit through most things without

[00:37] checking my phone every 10 minutes. The

[00:39] Witch, I couldn't do it. It was just too

[00:41] boring for me, sue me. But Lake Mungo

[00:43] had me glued to the screen for the whole

[00:46] 90 minutes. And honestly, I loved every

[00:48] second of it. It's this Australian movie

[00:50] that looks exactly like one of those

[00:52] true crime documentaries your mom

[00:54] watches. You know, the ones with the

[00:56] dramatic recreations and talking head

[00:58] interviews. Except this family isn't

[01:00] talking about their missing daughter

[01:01] because she ran away to join a cult. She

[01:03] drowned. Alice Palmer, 16 years old,

[01:06] dead in a lake. The movie starts after

[01:08] the funeral. The parents are doing that

[01:10] thing where they're trying to hold it

[01:11] together for the cameras, but you can

[01:13] tell they're completely broken inside.

[01:15] The brother's angry. Everyone's just

[01:17] trying to figure out how to keep living

[01:19] when this massive thing happened to

[01:20] their family. Then, weird stuff starts

[01:22] happening in their house. Now, most

[01:24] ghost movies would have dishes flying

[01:26] around and doors slamming. Lake Mungo

[01:28] gives you a phone ringing at 3:00 in the

[01:30] morning. Pictures that look a little bit

[01:32] off. A bell that should not be ringing.

[01:34] Small things that make you think you're

[01:36] just going to go crazy. The genius part

[01:38] is how real this movie feels. These

[01:40] people talk like actual grieving family

[01:43] members, not movie actors in a horror

[01:46] movie. The mom keeps checking Alice's

[01:48] room. The dad throws himself into his

[01:50] work. The brother gets protective and

[01:52] angry at everyone trying to exploit

[01:54] their tragedy. And this whole time

[01:56] you're watching this home video footage

[01:58] that's a mix of what Alice filmed before

[02:00] she died and her brother documenting

[02:02] everything else. Just like normal

[02:04] teenager stuff, hanging out with

[02:05] friends, being annoying, doing whatever

[02:07] teenagers do, which makes everything so

[02:09] much worse because she feels like a real

[02:11] person, not some horror movie victim.

[02:14] The scary part isn't really the ghost

[02:16] stuff. It's watching this family try to

[02:18] process something that doesn't make any

[02:20] sense. How do you move on when your kid

[02:22] just dies? How do you sleep in a house

[02:24] when you keep hearing her voice? How do

[02:27] you explain to people that you saw her

[02:28] standing in your backyard? Most horror

[02:30] movies give you 20 jump scares and call

[02:32] it a day. Lake Mungo gives you only one,

[02:36] and it's absolutely brutal because by

[02:39] that point you care about these people.

[02:42] You just spent an hour and a half with

[02:43] them and you want them to be okay, but

[02:46] they're not okay, and neither will you

[02:48] after you see what Alice has left

[02:49] behind. And speaking of disturbing found

[02:52] footage that is going to give you

[02:53] nightmares, this next movie was

[02:55] literally filmed at one. Back in high

[02:57] school, I dressed up as a clown and

[02:59] chased people with a chainsaw. Now, you

[03:01] might think, "Holy you are a

[03:03] psychopath." But I promise I am not. It

[03:06] was part of our student government thing

[03:08] and we put on a haunted house for

[03:09] charity. So, me being this like awkward

[03:12] teenager who was like 6'2 and kind of

[03:14] tall and broad, I was like, "Let me

[03:16] scare the out of some people." This was

[03:18] also back in time when everyone kept to

[03:19] seeing those clowns pop up in like news

[03:21] articles. So, this is at the peak of the

[03:23] clown terror. What we did is we built

[03:25] this whole like haunted house thing. At

[03:27] the very end of this haunted house,

[03:28] there was a stairwell all of the people

[03:29] going through the haunted house would

[03:30] walk up. I was hiding behind the door

[03:33] and they would walk out into this

[03:35] hallway and then at the end of the

[03:36] hallway was the end of the haunted

[03:37] house. And so, I would walk very quietly

[03:40] out of this door behind all of them so

[03:43] they could not see me. And then I would

[03:44] rev a chainsaw, start laughing like,

[03:49] and and chase them down the hallway. The

[03:51] chainsaw had the blade taken off, so it

[03:53] was completely safe. I had a lot of fun.

[03:55] Everyone their pants. It was amazing

[03:57] experience. Like the tallest guys that

[03:59] were on my football team, they were

[04:00] pretty scared. It was fun. It was

[04:01] amazing. I loved it. Here's a picture

[04:03] for proof. I thought that whole

[04:04] situation was hilarious though, until I

[04:07] watched Hell House LLC and realized how

[04:10] quickly fun scares can turn into an

[04:12] actual nightmare. This movie follows a

[04:14] group of people setting up a haunted

[04:16] house attraction in an old hotel. Seems

[04:19] normal enough, right? Buy some fake

[04:21] blood, set up jump scares, charge 20

[04:23] bucks admission. Easy money. Except they

[04:25] picked the worst possible location. The

[04:28] Abaddon Hotel isn't just old and creepy.

[04:30] It's legitimately haunted and not in

[04:33] like a fun way. The movie shows you

[04:35] their set up footage. They're hanging

[04:36] decorations, testing sound effects,

[04:38] placing these really unsettling clown

[04:40] mannequins around the basement. Standard

[04:43] haunted house stuff. But then things

[04:44] start going wrong in small ways. A clown

[04:47] dummy moves when nobody's near him.

[04:49] Doors open by themselves. One crew

[04:51] member quits after seeing something that

[04:53] made him go completely pale. The smart

[04:55] move would be pack up and find a

[04:57] different building. But these people

[04:59] have already spent their money and

[05:00] opening night is coming up. 15 people

[05:03] died that night. Customers and staff.

[05:06] The brilliant part is how they reveal

[05:08] what happened. You get pieces of the

[05:10] story through security cameras,

[05:12] camcorder footage and interviews with

[05:14] survivors. Well, the one survivor, who

[05:16] might not actually be a survivor at all.

[05:18] The basement scene this movie is

[05:20] absolutely perfect. They set up strobe

[05:22] lights down there as part of the

[05:23] attraction. Customers are walking

[05:25] through, everything seems normal, and

[05:26] then the strobing lights reveal one of

[05:28] those clown mannequins is moving. And

[05:30] not just moving, but getting closer to

[05:32] this actress who's chained up as part of

[05:34] the fake ritual scene. Turns out the

[05:36] ritual isn't fake anymore. This movie

[05:38] builds this incredible tension because

[05:40] you know something terrible is going to

[05:41] happen, but you're watching all the set

[05:43] up footage where everyone's just doing

[05:45] their job. They're joking around,

[05:47] complaining about the long hours,

[05:48] arguing about where to put the fog

[05:50] machine, normal work stuff. Then opening

[05:52] night arrives and all hell breaks loose,

[05:56] literally. This movie feels so

[05:58] realistic. It's another amazing found

[06:01] footage gem. This is the number one

[06:02] movie I recommend to any like normie

[06:04] person that's trying to get into horror

[06:06] movies because most of them have not

[06:08] seen this movie and it will genuinely

[06:10] make you your pants. Such a good movie.

[06:12] By the end you literally will never want

[06:14] to go to a haunted house again. But if

[06:15] moving clowns are going to freak you

[06:16] out, wait and see me something that

[06:18] kills you when you blink. So right now

[06:20] you're probably thinking about blinking

[06:21] cuz I just said that. Well, sorry about

[06:23] that. Try not to think about it for the

[06:24] next few minutes. Why? Let's find out.

[06:27] Butterfly Kisses takes this automatic

[06:29] thing your eyes do and turns it into a

[06:31] death sentence. Some film students in

[06:33] Maryland heard this local urban legend

[06:35] about a tunnel where you can summon

[06:37] something called Peeping Tom. This is

[06:39] what Peeping Tom looks like and he tells

[06:41] you you need to like and subscribe to

[06:42] the channel, right? Right? Right?

[06:45] Anyways, Peeping Tom. The rules are

[06:47] simple. Stand at the entrance of a

[06:49] tunnel at midnight. Stare down the dark

[06:52] tunnel for exactly 1 hour without

[06:53] blinking and this thing will appear at

[06:55] the far end. But every time you blink

[06:57] afterwards,

[06:59] it gets closer. The students figured

[07:01] they found a loophole though. Cameras

[07:03] don't blink, right? So they set up

[07:05] equipment and started filming. Terrible

[07:06] idea, but great for us because we get to

[07:08] watch the footage they left behind and

[07:10] there's a lot of footage. This whole

[07:12] movie is structured as a documentary

[07:13] about the documentary. Some guy named

[07:16] Gavin finds these tapes years later and

[07:18] becomes obsessed with proving they're

[07:20] real. Nobody believes him though. His

[07:22] wife thinks he's losing it. Film experts

[07:24] call it fake. Even the Blair Witch

[07:26] Project director shows up to basically

[07:28] say it's obviously staged, which makes

[07:30] everything way more convincing. The

[07:32] original footage shows these two

[07:33] students getting way too deep into

[07:35] something they should have left alone.

[07:37] They actually managed to summon this

[07:39] Peeping Tom thing. You can see it in

[07:41] their video. This tall figure standing

[07:43] at the end of the tunnel, perfectly

[07:45] still. Then the camera cuts away for a

[07:47] second, and when it comes back, the

[07:49] thing has moved closer. The whole movie

[07:51] becomes a slow countdown. Every blink

[07:54] brings death closer, and you literally

[07:56] cannot stop yourself from blinking

[07:59] because your body won't let you. One of

[08:01] the students completely loses it and

[08:03] starts seeing Peeping Tom everywhere, in

[08:06] windows, behind trees, standing in his

[08:09] bedroom. The other one gets so desperate

[08:11] that she does something that is so

[08:13] unbelievably disturbing. I'm not going

[08:16] to spoil it for you, but you just got to

[08:18] watch the movie. This movie shows you

[08:20] the aftermath of that decision. The girl

[08:23] who did the crazy thing is in a mental

[08:25] hospital, still insisting that she can

[08:27] see Peeping Tom coming for her. She

[08:29] can't escape, and she can't unsee what's

[08:32] hunting her. Meanwhile, Gavin in the

[08:34] present day is going through the exact

[08:35] same spiral. He's so determined to prove

[08:38] the footage is real that he starts

[08:39] experiencing the same things. Seeing

[08:41] figures in dark places, feeling watched,

[08:44] getting more and more paranoid. Then

[08:47] Gavin disappears, too. They find his

[08:49] body later, and suddenly the documentary

[08:51] team realizes that they might be dealing

[08:53] with something actually dangerous. Not

[08:55] just old footage, but an active threat

[08:57] that spreads through the tapes

[08:58] themselves. Again, this is another found

[09:00] footage movie. Call me a found footage,

[09:03] but I think it's one of the best formats

[09:05] of horror movies. I also think it could

[09:07] be one of the worst because there's a

[09:08] lot of found footage movies out there

[09:10] because of how easy it is to make. But I

[09:12] think when it's done well, best type of

[09:14] horror movie. Unfortunately, there's a

[09:15] lot of in that pile. You know what?

[09:17] People got to try though. You got to

[09:18] make movies or you're going to make good

[09:20] movies. Have you seen some of the first

[09:21] YouTube videos I made? They are

[09:23] horrible. The only way I got to this

[09:25] place is by being so

[09:27] that I got good. It's literally how you

[09:28] do everything. Ultimately though, this

[09:30] movie is terrifying. But at least

[09:32] Peeping Tom let you choose the horror

[09:35] you went through. This next family had

[09:37] no choice about their destruction. Every

[09:39] family has those home videos where dad's

[09:41] way too excited about the new camcorder.

[09:43] You know the ones, Christmas morning,

[09:45] 1997. Everyone's in pajamas looking dead

[09:48] inside while dad zooms in on people's

[09:50] faces asking how they slept. Exhibit A

[09:52] starts exactly the same way. The King

[09:54] family seems perfectly normal in their

[09:56] home footage. The daughter Judith got

[09:58] the camera as a gift, so now she's

[10:00] documenting everything. Dad Andy's

[10:03] planning to move them into a bigger

[10:04] house. Mom Sheila's dinner and little

[10:07] brother Joe's being annoying. Standard

[10:09] British family stuff. Yeah, they're

[10:11] British. Andy's the star of these early

[10:13] videos. He's one of those dads who

[10:15] thinks they're funnier than they are,

[10:17] making jokes behind the camera, talking

[10:19] about his big promotion at work. Classic

[10:22] dad behavior. You have seen this dad

[10:24] before. He's the guy at barbecues. I

[10:25] don't have to point out which guy he is.

[10:27] He's just the guy at barbecues. You will

[10:29] understand exactly what I mean. But then

[10:31] things start getting weird in small

[10:32] ways. Andy starts getting a little too

[10:34] interested in everyone's business,

[10:37] asking too many questions, getting upset

[10:39] about stuff that shouldn't matter. The

[10:41] camera catches these moments where his

[10:43] smile drops for just a second before

[10:45] snapping back into place. Turns out Andy

[10:48] hasn't been very truthful about a lot of

[10:50] things. I'm not going to spoil exactly

[10:52] what those things are, but let's just

[10:54] say Andy is not a very good person. And

[10:57] the family doesn't know any of this yet,

[10:59] but they're still making their normal

[11:01] home videos while Andy is slowly

[11:03] spiraling. And then one night the

[11:06] unthinkable happens. Now, I'm not going

[11:09] to spoil the ending of this movie, but

[11:10] basically it is extremely terrifying 15

[11:13] to 20 minutes. It's just genuinely

[11:15] unsettling because this could happen in

[11:17] real life. Again, found footage comes

[11:19] in, makes it so much more real and you

[11:21] are forced to watch this movie through

[11:23] the perspective of a child. It's this

[11:25] beautiful use of pacing to this big

[11:27] snapping point and then it's just a

[11:30] cluster. It's amazing though. So we

[11:32] learned that families can be destroyed

[11:34] by certain things. But what happens when

[11:37] there's an evil out there that's older

[11:39] than humans themselves? Because

[11:41] apparently the Vatican has a whole

[11:42] department for checking if miracles are

[11:44] real. Imagine that job interview. So,

[11:46] what do you do for work? Oh, I verify

[11:49] whether or not God is personally

[11:51] intervening in people's lives. You know,

[11:53] pretty standard stuff at the office.

[11:54] Final Prayer follows three of these

[11:56] miracle investigators as they head to

[11:58] some tiny English church where weird is

[12:01] going on. Deacon's a skeptical priest

[12:03] who thinks everything has a logical

[12:05] explanation. Father Mark's the by the

[12:07] book Vatican guy with forms to fill out.

[12:09] Raise the tech expert who sets up the

[12:11] cameras everywhere because apparently

[12:12] God needs to be caught on film to count.

[12:14] I thought the whole point of God was

[12:16] like believing, but apparently the

[12:17] Catholic Church, they need their

[12:19] evidence. They're investigating reports

[12:21] of supernatural activity. Candles

[12:23] lighting themselves, objects moving

[12:24] around the altar, mysterious voices.

[12:27] Standard church haunting stuff that

[12:29] could easily be explained by old

[12:31] building noises and overactive

[12:32] imaginations. The local priest is

[12:35] absolutely losing his mind over what's

[12:37] happening. The poor guy is so disturbed

[12:39] that he jumps off the bell tower before

[12:41] the investigators even finished setting

[12:43] up everything. They probably should have

[12:45] taken that as a warning sign though to

[12:46] leave. They didn't because these are

[12:48] professional miracle verifiers, so they

[12:50] keep investigating. And they discover

[12:52] the church was built on top of an

[12:54] ancient pagan temple where people used

[12:57] to sacrifice humans to some unnamed god,

[13:00] which explains why this miracle doesn't

[13:03] feel particularly holy. The movie spends

[13:05] most of its time building up this

[13:07] mystery about what's really causing all

[13:08] these strange things. Then Father Mark

[13:11] disappears during what was supposed to

[13:12] be a routine blessing ceremony. Deacon

[13:14] and Gray hear his voice calling for help

[13:16] somewhere underground. So naturally,

[13:19] they decide to go looking for him in the

[13:20] tunnels beneath the church. This is

[13:22] where this movie takes the hard left

[13:24] turn into absolute nightmare territory.

[13:28] I cannot spoil this movie, but this is

[13:30] genuinely one of the coolest concepts

[13:33] ever in a horror movie. And it is so

[13:36] deeply disturbing, you just got to watch

[13:38] it. I can't tell you. You just got to

[13:40] watch it. I cannot spoil this for you.

[13:42] You just got to watch the movie. As this

[13:43] horrible thing is going on though, you

[13:45] can like see these people just getting

[13:48] roasted alive. That's the most Broadway

[13:51] I'm going to put it. Roasted alive and

[13:52] you can feel their terror through the

[13:54] camera they brought with them. They're

[13:56] never getting out of this. I think

[13:58] religious horror is disturbing, but

[14:00] human monsters in the wilderness are

[14:02] somehow sometimes worse. Nothing says

[14:04] romantic getaway like driving 3 hours to

[14:06] a place with no cell service to sleep on

[14:08] the ground and poop in the woods. That's

[14:10] exactly what Ian and Sam decide to do

[14:12] for New Year's Eve because apparently

[14:14] hotels are for people who hate

[14:16] adventure. They arrive at this beautiful

[14:18] isolated campground in the Australian

[14:21] bush, immediately notice another

[14:23] family's tent already set up. Except

[14:25] there is no family anywhere around, just

[14:27] their stuff sitting there. Camping

[14:29] chairs still out, food still on the

[14:31] table, like everyone just vanished

[14:33] mid-dinner. Normal people would probably

[14:35] leave at that point. Ian and Sam decide

[14:37] to stay and wait for the missing campers

[14:39] to come back. Excellent decision-making

[14:41] there, buddy. While they're setting up

[14:42] their own tent, the movie starts showing

[14:44] you what actually happened to that other

[14:46] family. Not all at once though, just

[14:48] through little pieces. A mom, a dad,

[14:51] teenage daughter, and a baby boy who

[14:53] were just trying to have a nice camping

[14:55] trip until they met two local guys named

[14:58] German and Shook. These are not the kind

[15:00] of locals who give you directions to the

[15:02] best fishing spots. These are the type

[15:04] of locals you'll wish you'll never met.

[15:06] German and Shook saw this family camping

[15:08] alone, decided they looked like easy

[15:11] targets. What follows is some of the

[15:13] most realistic and horrible violence you

[15:16] will see in any movie. They assault and

[15:19] just do horrible things to the entire

[15:21] family, but somehow the baby survives by

[15:24] being left in the bush. The movie cuts

[15:26] between this nightmare and Ian and Sam's

[15:28] pleasant camping experience. They're

[15:30] making coffee and talking about their

[15:33] relationship while you're watching

[15:34] footage of a family being brutally

[15:36] mauled at the exact same spot. When

[15:39] German and Shook realize there are new

[15:40] campers, they see another opportunity.

[15:43] Shook approaches Ian pretending to be

[15:45] helpful and offers to guide him in

[15:47] searching for the missing family.

[15:49] Meanwhile, German goes after Sam. Ian

[15:51] gets led straight to where the bodies

[15:52] are hidden. Shook reveals everything,

[15:54] basically taunting him with what he's

[15:56] about to do to Sam. Ian manages to

[15:58] escape into the brush and gets hurt in

[15:59] the process. Sam fights back against

[16:01] German and actually does some damage

[16:03] before running to the woods and finding

[16:04] the surviving baby. Now, everyone is

[16:06] scattered through the wilderness with

[16:08] two psychopaths hunting them down. The

[16:10] final confrontation is absolutely brutal

[16:13] and again, I am not going to spoil it.

[16:15] Everything I mentioned so far right now

[16:16] is just little baby teacups. Andy's just

[16:19] insane. Watch the damn movie. It is

[16:21] genuinely terrifying and it shows you

[16:23] how horrible human beings can actually

[16:25] be. But, it does it in such a clever way

[16:28] and the tension just makes this such a

[16:30] good horror movie. It is a completely

[16:32] realistic movie that could happen to

[16:34] anybody that goes camping. So, make sure

[16:36] you lock your tent if you go camping.

[16:38] The next movie we're going to talk about

[16:39] is incredibly disturbing for other

[16:41] reasons though, because it is a romance

[16:44] movie. Dating apps have trained us to

[16:45] expect the worst from every human

[16:47] interaction. So, when a girl meets a guy

[16:49] organically at the grocery store, it

[16:51] feels revolutionary. Oh, wow, he was

[16:53] approaching me in person while I was

[16:55] buying spinach instead of asking me for

[16:57] my Snapchat. He's basically Prince

[16:59] Charming. Well, that's exactly how Noah

[17:01] feels when she meets Steve in the

[17:03] produce section. He's charming, funny,

[17:06] not immediately asking for creepy stuff

[17:08] or talking about cryptocurrency, and

[17:10] most importantly, he's Sebastian Stan.

[17:13] He's very hot. We'll just get get point

[17:15] across. I can acknowledge, man to man,

[17:18] that is a very attractive man. That is

[17:19] like very important part of the movie

[17:21] though, him being attractive and like a

[17:23] kind gentleman. He's a handsome guy with

[17:25] actual conversation skills who doesn't

[17:27] live in his mom's basement. He's

[17:29] basically everything I'm not. So, when

[17:30] Steve invites her on a weekend getaway

[17:32] after just a couple dates, Noah ignores

[17:35] every true crime podcast she's ever

[17:36] listened to and says, "Yes." Because

[17:39] he's cute and he makes her laugh and

[17:40] sometimes you just want to believe

[17:42] people aren't terrible. Big mistake.

[17:45] People suck. Steve drugs her wine on the

[17:47] first night. Noah wakes up chained to a

[17:49] basement and Steve's personality has

[17:51] done a complete 180. Turns out the

[17:53] charming guy from the grocery store is

[17:55] actually Brendan, a cannibal who runs a

[17:58] very specialized business selling human

[18:01] meat to wealthy clients. And by human

[18:03] meat, I mean the women he dates. Noah

[18:06] isn't just kidnapped, she's literally

[18:08] turned into livestock. Steve keeps

[18:10] multiple women locked up in his basement

[18:12] surgically removing pieces of them while

[18:13] keeping them alive. Fresh meat, as he

[18:15] cheerfully explains while dancing around

[18:17] his kitchen like he's hosting a cooking

[18:19] show. The movie shows you exactly how

[18:21] this whole operation works. So, he

[18:23] packages human flesh in vacuum-sealed

[18:26] bags labeled with cuts like you'd see at

[18:28] a butcher shop. Takes orders from rich

[18:30] clients who want to try the most exotic

[18:32] meat available. He's got like a whole

[18:34] damn business model out of this damn

[18:36] hobby. The worst part is how casual

[18:38] Steve is about everything. He's still

[18:40] the same charming guy just explaining

[18:43] how he's going to harvest parts of her

[18:44] body for dinner parties. He even takes a

[18:47] chunk of her butt as a sample for

[18:49] potential customers, which is exactly as

[18:52] horrible as it sounds. That is the most

[18:54] I can say about this movie without

[18:55] spoiling the crazy ending, but it is so

[18:58] genuinely disturbing and also wholesome.

[19:01] And because it's wholesome, it makes it

[19:03] more disturbing, if that makes any

[19:05] sense. Like literally, you're so

[19:06] romantically cute in the first 30

[19:08] minutes and it's like, "Oh god, what the

[19:10] [ __ ] is going on?" It takes you for a

[19:12] ride and that's why it's an amazing

[19:14] movie. So yeah, if you're looking to

[19:15] date anybody, don't date a cannibal. It

[19:18] won't end well. What about identity

[19:19] theft? You ever talked about identity

[19:20] theft? Well, I'm going to talk about

[19:22] identity theft because remote work has

[19:24] really evolved since the pandemic. You

[19:25] know, it used to be you'd work from your

[19:27] kitchen table pajamas. Well, now you can

[19:29] just work inside someone else's brain

[19:30] while they commit murder for you.

[19:32] Technology is amazing. The Zesser takes

[19:34] the gig economy to its logical extreme.

[19:37] Tasya Vos works as an assassin. She

[19:39] doesn't actually do the killing herself.

[19:41] She uses brain implant technology to

[19:43] possess other people and make them pull

[19:45] the trigger. Then she forces them to

[19:48] themselves erasing all evidence of her

[19:50] involvement. It's the perfect crime

[19:52] except for the part where it completely

[19:53] destroys your sense of self. Tasya's

[19:55] latest job involves possessing Colin,

[19:58] some regular dude whose girlfriend

[19:59] happens to be the daughter of a wealthy

[20:01] CEO. The plan is simple. Make Colin kill

[20:04] the target, then Colin

[20:06] clean, efficient, untraceable. Colin's

[20:08] mind fights back harder than expected.

[20:10] What starts as a routine possession

[20:12] turns into a psychological war inside

[20:14] one body. Colin's consciousness refuses

[20:17] to disappear quietly and Tasya starts

[20:19] losing control of the situation. Their

[20:22] thoughts begin blending together in ways

[20:23] that aren't supposed to happen. The

[20:25] technology starts glitching. Colin

[20:27] experiences flashes of Tasya's memories

[20:29] while she's stuck experiencing his.

[20:30] Neither of them know who's actually in

[20:32] control at any given moment. Colin might

[20:34] think he's making a decision, but it's

[20:36] actually Tasya pulling the strings or

[20:38] vice versa. Things get really messy when

[20:41] Colin stabs the implant out of his own

[20:43] head trying to regain control of his

[20:45] body. This damages the equipment and

[20:47] tangles their minds together even more.

[20:49] Now they're trapped in some kind of

[20:51] psychological feedback loop. Reality and

[20:53] hallucination blur completely. The movie

[20:55] does not hold back on showing you

[20:57] exactly how violent this process

[20:59] becomes. When someone gets stabbed in

[21:01] the face with a fireplace poker, you see

[21:03] every puncture wound in detail. When

[21:06] skulls get split with meat cleavers, the

[21:08] camera does not look away. It's brutal

[21:10] and realistic and absolutely nauseating.

[21:12] The real horror isn't the gore. It's

[21:15] watching two people lose themselves

[21:16] completely as their identities dissolve

[21:18] into each other. Colin starts acting

[21:21] like Tajia. Tajia starts experiencing

[21:23] Colin's emotions. Neither of them knows

[21:25] where one person ends and the other

[21:27] begins. And the ending is just plain

[21:29] disturbing. It's a giant 180 that I did

[21:32] not see coming. It's a disturbing movie,

[21:34] but it's really damn good and that's why

[21:36] I'm suggesting it. Somehow it even mixes

[21:38] in body horror and that's one of my

[21:39] favorite horror genres. So, if you like

[21:41] that, too, you got to watch it. But,

[21:42] let's move on to a different part of the

[21:43] world. Let's talk about Indonesia. Why

[21:46] are we talking about Indonesia? Well,

[21:47] most horror movies give you breaks

[21:49] between the scary parts. Little moments

[21:51] to catch your breath, make jokes, check

[21:53] your phone. Maybe the characters sit

[21:55] around discussing their next move or

[21:56] they're having relationship drama, you

[21:58] know, standard pacing stuff. Well,

[22:00] Satan's Slaves said no, thanks to all

[22:01] that. This Indonesian horror movie

[22:03] starts with a mother dying after a long

[22:05] illness. From that moment until the

[22:07] credits roll, something terrible is

[22:09] always happening. There's no downtime,

[22:11] no comic relief, just 90 minutes of

[22:14] supernatural assault on this poor

[22:15] family. The Suwono family thinks their

[22:17] problems are over when the mom finally

[22:19] passes away. She's been sick for months,

[22:22] bedridden and ringing this little bell

[22:23] whenever she needed help. Death was

[22:25] almost a relief at that point. But, then

[22:27] the bell starts ringing by itself. Mom's

[22:30] ghost isn't resting peacefully. She's

[22:33] wandering around the house at night,

[22:34] appearing in doorways, standing outside

[22:37] windows, classic haunting behavior.

[22:39] Except, she's not trying to comfort her

[22:40] family or deliver some important

[22:42] message. She's being really freaking

[22:44] creepy. The movie hits you with scare

[22:46] after scare. Rocking chairs moving on

[22:48] their own, faces in mirrors, hands

[22:50] reaching out of dark corners. It's

[22:52] relentless in the best way possible.

[22:54] Just when you think you can relax,

[22:56] something else jumps out at you. The

[22:58] ghost mom is just the opening act. And

[23:00] I'm not going to explain what that pact

[23:02] is, but you will not see it coming. And

[23:04] once you see it, it will all start to

[23:06] make sense. What really makes this movie

[23:08] scary is how in-depth they go into

[23:10] building up this folklore. It makes it

[23:11] even more scary in the sequel, which is

[23:14] just as good. If you like foreign horror

[23:16] movies, you have got to watch this movie

[23:18] because it's so damn good. It's just bat

[23:20] crazy. And now we finally get to the

[23:22] most recent horror movie in this video,

[23:24] Weapons. Horror movies have this

[23:26] unspoken rule about what you're not

[23:28] supposed to show. Don't hurt kids on

[23:29] screen. Don't make violence too

[23:31] realistic. Don't leave audiences

[23:32] completely hopeless at the end. Well,

[23:34] Weapons doesn't really follow those

[23:36] rules. Weapons takes every parent's

[23:38] worst nightmare and makes it worse. 17

[23:40] kids from the same classroom vanish in

[23:42] one night. All of them leave their homes

[23:44] at exactly 2:17 a.m. and Naruto run into

[23:47] the darkness. Only one student in their

[23:50] class doesn't disappear, and everyone

[23:52] immediately assumes he's involved. The

[23:54] movie reveals the truth slowly through

[23:56] different perspectives. Because this

[23:57] movie just came out, I'm not going to

[24:00] spoil it, but it is genuinely one of the

[24:03] best horror movies of this year. I don't

[24:05] think it's the number one horror movie.

[24:06] I think Bring Her Back was a little bit

[24:08] better, but it is up there. And the

[24:10] scares here are so damn good. This is

[24:12] the only thing I'm going to say, old

[24:13] people are

[24:14] scary. These are 10 horror movies I

[24:16] think are actually scary. What do you

[24:18] think? Do you think I'm stupid? Do you

[24:20] think I'm dumb for thinking this? Let me

[24:22] know down in the comments and let me

[24:23] know if you think there's any movies

[24:25] that are more scary out there. And for

[24:27] the love of God, please do not just say

[24:28] Hereditary. That is like overdone point.

[24:31] I get it, Hereditary is good, but every

[24:33] other person on Earth has talked about

[24:35] it. So, it's almost like overblown at

[24:38] this point. We get it, Hereditary is

[24:40] good. Anyways, like this video if you

[24:42] want more videos just like this.

[24:45] don't want to go to bed yet, there's

[24:46] more nightmares in this video on screen
