I think that Grace only escaping because she got lucky a bunch of times was actually really realistic and well written. It crushed the trope of “female protag suddenly becomes hardcore fighting machine when in a dire situation”. Grace was a completely normal person with no survival abilities outside of natural instincts, thus she makes a lot of dumb decisions & mainly gets lucky to survive. Not only did it make her character more relatable but felt really fresh for a thriller.

[@mememe495]

Yes true. I really thought the film would make her some kind kung fu ninja mma fighter who would hunt the family instead. But this way it felt more relatable to a situation how a normal person would behave. Making dumb decisions and somehow getting lucky.

Not necessarily. He tried to warn Grace because pulling out that card, he might lose her. But not marrying her, he's afraid he would lose her either.

[@tiabennett7934]

Alex was a selfish rich kid who despite desperately wanting to separate himself from his family he never had the strength to. And I totally agree with the fact that if he really thought he could save grace he would have NEVER taken her there in the first place. This movie just shows how strong and hard it is for some people to abandon family pressure and indoctrination.

[@resnardlapiz3250]

Well, he would've died if he hadn't took her there, because according to the movie lore, it's a must for new family members to play the game, otherwise they'd both die.

[@VivaLaDnDLogs]

Despite being born rich, Alex was dealt a bad hand in life. With his family and their satanic cult, his options were pretty limited. Dying Alone: 50/50 Ending Up Like His Family: 99/100 Marrying: 85/100 (he is rich) Marrying Someone After Telling Them About the Satanic Cult: 1/100 Marrying Someone _Decent_ After Telling Them About the Satanic Cult: 1/1000000 Marrying Someone Decent If He _Doesn't_ Tell Them About the Satanic Cult: 85/100 His Bride Draws the Hide & Seek Card: 1/5+

[@VivaLaDnDLogs]

I think he was caught in an impossible situation. He wants to get away from his family, but he can't. If he told everyone he tried to date that he was part of a satanic cult, the smart ones would leave and the ones who would agree to it would be exactly the kind of people in his family he wanted to escape from. Once he & Grace were married, he had at least a 3/4 chance that she'd get a normal game, and then he'd have at least 10+ years (however long until one of those kids can marry) to tell her about the bullet she dodged while they get far away from his family. Alternatively, they could just date forever.

[@laurajanco2i]

@@resnardlapiz3250 He could have dated her forever and she would have never needed to be part of the family in the first place. What's not clicking... He just couldn't distance himself from the family because he's a coward, he wants the best of both worlds and that's why he returned. If he wasn't so selfish he wouldn't have needed to play the game to begin with.

[@popsicleman8816]

Actually, there were instances where Grace could have just beaten the game after Alex's initial attempt to save her. After she realized the game was lethal, all she had to do was hide. The family ends up finding her multiple times precisely because she tries to escape to a place outside of the property. One particularly great hiding spot that we get to see in the movie itself is the area where they dump all the bodies. It is an area with no security cameras, is dark, has multiple humanoid figures to hide herself amongst, and is an area that they really wouldn't look for her at. Only issue with that spot was that she only went in there after she was found by the little brat who shot her hand and the door was smashed by her falling through. (honestly, I'm surprised how incompetent these people were that they didn't search down there). Had she climbed down there on her own, the family would probably have failed to find her and lost the game. Even if people came to dump the maids' bodies, they'd just throw them down, not actively search the area. If she's lying down underneath the piles of corpses, she'd been basically undetectable.

[@shelbyrogers8878]

Okay so, hear me out: divorce. I think the couple seconds of her saying “Alex, I want a divorce” right before he dies is what spares her from Mr. Le Bail. Here’s why: When Alex is explaining how his newly-married family members died by *not* playing the game, he includes their new spouses among the deaths. So for Grace to *actually* win, it wasn’t about staying alive until sunrise. She’d doom herself too. It was about separating herself from the family and legally ending the marriage. Le Bail saw that the marriage was over and she found the loophole, which is why he appears and gives her that “damn girl” nod.

I just thought of something Let’s say she didn’t know she was going to be killed and sacrificed while playing the game and wasn’t told about it during the game. Wouldn’t it then be smarter for the family to not have weapons and simply try to find her? The weapons only serve a purpose if she knows she’s going to be sacrificed. The family could find her and say something along the lines of come with us so we can finish the game or tradition, they take her to the sacrifice room and then incapacitate her and then sacrifice her, the weapons are more of a detriment to there hunting then a help.

[@lilscenechick1995]

Well they DID cheat (by attempting to use the security cameras). I agree that logically, they would rig the game and use deception to basically win by default. However, in the context of the film, they are playing a game. Their family legacy is built upon the concept of beating the odds. I.e. did you draw the wrong card? It's based on chance, luck, and skill (the latter of which they clearly lack). Grace had a string of horrible bad luck, but she got herself out of trouble using her wit. The family was very superstitious and tried following the (implied) rules of Hide and Seek, in fear of the consequences.

[@ladyjustice5282]

I mean in that case why even play the game at all, just drug her, tie her up and do the sacrificey thing. They're rich eccentric assholes. This is the kind of shit rl rich eccentric assholes do. That's why the real way to beat these guys is with guillotines.

I think there _is_ a viable solution for Grace to survive, actually. Given the large amounts of furniture, she could purposefully set up the rooms such that they only have one opening etc. She can anticipate the enemies coming by making them enter from a single chokepoint. And if she hears a lot of them coming about she can always pull the sofa from the door and sneak out another way, relocate to another part of the mansion etc. That's provided she somehow manages to get the map early on, though. So it's really tough.

Can we just acknowledge how weird it wouldve been if Alex never went back to his family and they lost a future game of hide and seek..? Cause whether or not he married grace, he’s still a part of the family. So, if somehow he convinced Grace not to get married and they just remained dating and he never went home, she wouldnt be a part of the family, but he’s still blood related. So just imagine Grace and Alex laying in bed, sleeping, then at sunrise, she wakes up covered in blood because her boyfriend inexplicably spontaneously exploded. And who would explain it to her...? the whole fam would be dead...! It’d be the weirdest shít... but *that’s* the movie *I want* .

[@plucas1]

Solution: set fire to the house. This does depend on Grace getting hold of at least some matches or a lighter, or getting to the kitchen. That old house sure does seem to have a lot of old drapes and carpets and super-burnable bookcases and booze, and no sprinklers or fire extinguishers in sight. She starts the fire and lets it spread. First of all, its the best kind of distraction for her. Plus if the family is inept at hunting her down, they're going to be equally inept at fighting a fire. They (or their neighbors) will have to end up calling the fire department, which will bring the police as well and tie up the estate with potential witnesses to their crimes for hours. All that will give Grace plenty of time to sneak away or to openly come out and talk to the police and firefighters. I do think it's unlikely that most people would think of this off the bat, but as the scenario played out the victim got more desperate it might. And I do think it's a workable solution.

[@SasukeUchiha723]

I do remember the house catching fire towards the end. No one noticed, so they kept hunting grace. It didn’t play a role until they failed and the curse killed them and accelerated the fire. So in order for it to work, Grace would have to start the fire intentionally and have a planned escape route so she doesn’t burn in the fire too

[@mypseu]

I was thinking find the boiler room/heater and blow that, like The Shining (book).

[@JavienWashington]

She needs some sort of mask for the fire, or the smoke will kill her. If she could take a clean piece of cloth out of her wedding dress, put it under the water and burn the house she could however succeed in your plan

Advice for your cat: Cats usually like pets, but when your cat lays on their belly, they doesn’t mean they want belly pets. I mean in some situations maybe they would, but cats usually don’t like people touching their belly. The reason why they roll on their belly’s in frount of you is to show that they trust you, because cats find the belly as their most vulnerable spot. Maybe this will help with you cat problems.

[@Jehphg]

also beyond that, cats always give a warning, if you're not getting it, that's because you're either ignoring it or not paying attention enough

[@Conklin03]

I'm a bit late, but another thing to be careful of is over stimulation. Some cats can get angry and bite/scratch you if they get too much stimulation from petting, primarily on the back. If you still _really_ want to pet the cat, do it on it's head. Additionally, not all cats get angry from over stimulation, and a lot also don't show it until you realize it's claws are in your arm.

If I was in this situation I’d probably try to distract them than make an escape. The house seems to have a lot of candles in it so I’d set fire to a wing of the house, maybe even setting multiple fires so that it burns quicker and causes more commotion. I think it’s fair to assume that a lot of the family would be distracted or panicked by the fire burning their house to the ground so while the majority is in or near that wing of the building find a window that you can reasonably climb through and break it with some furniture (sorry if the glass is said to be reinforced or something but I don’t think they said so explicitly). Hide out somewhere in the woods until dawn, if I found that dead body pit, as mentally scarring as it might be, I might try to hide out there as it doesn’t seem like anyone was checking it and most family members seemed just a bit too sqimish to go in or look super closely. Not a foolproof plan by any means but I think it would give you a decent shot of survival.

Quick question - what if we came at this from another angle: attract as many people as possible to the area and use it to get out? The house is on a large forested estate, and from what I gather the house uses a lot of wood in its structure/furniture - what if you used the cooking oils and matches from the kitchen and started a massive fire? That would attract the fire, ambulance and police units and you'd have enough distraction to get out?

[@TobaAdesanya]

Good idea.

[@TobaAdesanya]

I think the issue still remains. Everyone is out to get her and she will be caught. The fire will restrict the amount of the property she can hide in making it easier for her to be caught. I like the idea though

[@itsanna0735]

Danny Phantom Maybe the police and fire department will get there in time. Sure, the house seems pretty far away from any other buildings but if Grace could just get a weapon, run, and hide for long enough she could just wait it out, it’s not that hard to sneak up on someone and beat them with a gun, especially since they don’t expect it. Plus, the fire could also distract the family since they probably don’t want their house burning down.

[@TobaAdesanya]

itsanna07 it’s a good idea and I wouldn’t have thought of it. It works but also relies on luck. In the movie she was caught with the whole house so she has less of a chance now and could even die in the fire. In all fairness, the family would be even less coordinated in a fire and some members might even up and leave because they think the curse is fake so it has ups and downs. It could work but isn’t full proof. Good idea though

[@gingerbreadgirl3357]

it could work i’m not disagreeing, however the house starts to burn at the end but the family is relentless and WILL NOT give up. they’re still trying to sacrifice her even when their house is burning and they’re all in danger. even the kids remain in the house to see the ritual through. fire is the least of their concerns

[@ncnobel]

One thing I really liked about this film is that, to me, it really does all seem to be about playing the game. What I mean is, at the end of the film when the family realises they've lost, they don't immediately die- it's only after the Aunt tries to kill her anyway that they start blowing up like water balloons full of mince meat. I genuinely feel like the deal they made is entirely hinged upon respecting the game itself, and not on who wins or loses- like Alex said, she didn't have to win to be a part of the family. I think the same goes for the rest of them- they didn't have to win to fulfil their end of the deal, they just had to play the game.

[@ShinSeul]

I honestly believe that the only reason Alex decided to betray Grace and side with his family towards the end was because he believed she would leave him after that night. Earlier in the film we see Grace tell Alexs' mother that Alex was perfectly happy living in sin but he married her because she insisted on becoming a family due to her past with foster care. Later Alex tells Grace that he married her because she would have left if he didn't ( again as she was driven by her desire for a family) . He didn't tell her about the murder because he didn't want to scare her away. When he finally decided to side with his family it's after she moves away from him, scared, and he says something like" you're going to leave me after this, aren't you". In the end Grace calls him a selfish fuck and I completely agree. Which is why if she lied about staying with him even after the game, he probably would have continued to help her.

Grace was also full of adrenaline, and all of that combined with the fact that at first there was someone helping her, I personally found it pretty believable she survived. I had a lot of fun watching this movie and I love watching these videos, I always look forward to Film Herald videos on the movies I watch 💜

@@Miraculousdragoneyes i agree, the curse would not pass to her, but she should get an actual legal inheritance of the family fortune. Assuming Alex doesn't have a will because most people his age don't, everything would go to his wife, who never actually killed him, so the slayer rule shouldn't apply. If I remember correctly, Alex was the last one to die, so everything should go to him. (Of course this would be assuming the police believe her story XD)

[@enderwalkgang]

This movie reminds me of a Japanese legend were they groom a girl to be pure and innocent from birth, sheltering her from the outside world, then sacrificing her through a brutal and torturous ritual. The ritual has to happen once during a set about of years or decades, maybe it was once every 100 years, I forgot. But in the legend, the girl actually broke away from the family one night and met a young man her age, thus ruining the pure nature they raised her to be, thus tainting her and the family only find out when they preform the ritual which has served a demon sealing ritual to prevent a curse, similar to the movie. The movie comes across like an Americanized version of the story, but it could be a coincidence that the movie and legend are so similar.

[@domshaheen7356]

Further weight to your theory: if Grace lives then Alex dies (as he’s a family member the curse applies to him). My take on Alex is he just hoped she didn’t draw that card (odds were very good for this) and then once they payed whatever safe game she did pick they could move on. Sure, the curse would still exist but then Grace would be safe from it, albeit now cursed like him, which is the real issue for me with him. Alex condemns Grace by marrying her no matter what. He’s an ass. I cheered his death. Side note: Favourite death from the film is the housekeeper in the dumb waiter. I know. And Grace trying to save her was a great character moment showing she was kind even when betrayed.

Yeah, Alex was never a good guy. He was just kind of a pussy who wanted to weasel his way out of his end of the bargain. He wasn't heroically protecting Grace, he just sat back and hoped for the best, and when that didn't happen he tried to keep her alive in a way that would have benefited _him,_ not her. As soon as things swung against him, he turned on her. Alex was always a tool.

[@tealablu3759]

I don’t know if Alex’s trigger for turning on Grace is seeing her kill his family or once he realized she didn’t and likely would never trust him again, which would’ve left him without family and wife. My reasoning is that he only witnessed her at the tail end of bludgeoning his mom, and he didn’t witness her kill Daniel (although he may have assumed it). Or he may have been planning on turning on her all along regardless. I dunno, but there are so few vids discussing Ready or Not and it’s been bothering me Edit: btw, Alex and Grace will disappear if they try to elope. Alex said so. A couple of named people, and more unnamed

[@sweetest-of-memes]

I think that the small bits we see from him in the movie show that he really didn't care about his family after witnessing the game as a kid, which is why he left them for so long. He only reunited with them because she wanted a real family. He loved her because he thought that she made him good, but as his mom pointed out in the scene where he's chained to the bed, he really is just selfish. He married her, her brought her there, he didn't warn her, all because he ultimately didn't care as much as he wanted to believe he did. Just like he told his mom in that same scene, though, he'd choose his new wife over his family because wants so much to believe he's good and he knows his family aren't. He only decides to turn on her when he realizes that she won't stay with him. Because he's selfish and he knows he'll never have the chance to live the life he wanted through his relationship with her, he decides to kill her because he never really loved her. He just loved what she could do for him. I really don't think that he would have turned on her for killing his mom, but maybe if he thought she killed his brother. He didn't even say anything to her about his mom, he just told her his brother was dead.
