A CLASSIC HORROR STORY (2021) Ending Explained

[@Too-Be-Decided]

I've always hated the 'technology has desensitized us.' argument. fake violence and real violence are so insanely different on every level, if you can't separate the two then I feel like that's a lack of a moral compass rather than being desensitized via media.

[@goddessofthots5096]

This

[@shubniggurath3947]

The moral compass is skewed because of media violence. I'm pretty sure that's what they were getting at. That's always been my take away. Doesnt make it any less bogus, but all the same.

[@EnclosedPoolArea]

Not really. You have people who get upset over dog deaths in movies and video games. That appears to be one last taboo for western/white audiences.

[@scart8571]

Agreed. Considering children used to be taken to public hangings just for fun I would say, if anything, that technology has nothing to do with desensitisation

[@EnclosedPoolArea]

@@scart8571 Lets not act like that was widespread. Very, very few children would ever see an execution. A bit like treating a child trafficking victim as the average child today. They're the exception, not the rule.

[@LottieSquidHugs]

i did enjoy the meta jab of horror being dismissed as a genre with the dude just skimming through the movie and giving it a thumbs down, but everybody whipping their phone out during the beach scene felt so on the nose they may as well have worn joker make up

[@Fuhgl]

That one shot of the beachgoers with their phones looks like it's from a Coldplay music video. So bad.

[@glitterspray]

They were the creepiest part of the movie. Because they’re not supernatural beings we can project our own shitty behavior onto. They’re us. Nothing to do with cell phones. That’s just more projection. We’ve behaved this way for centuries, enthusiastically watching people being tortured and slaughtered and burned.

[@tehreporter]

Of course Viewers want to see real onscreen deaths. That's why Cannibal Holocaust is one of the highest rated horror films of all time.

[@tehreporter]

@@glitterspray There is a well studied phenomena called the "bystander effect". Basically, the more people who are present, the less likely that any one of them will offer aid. If only one other person had been on that beach, they would probably have rushed to help her.

[@neonbat666]

I love the meta horror idea, hell, Cabin in the Woods is one of my favorite movies! But I was immediately sucked out of it once the 'technology bad' message showed up. It's almost never handled subtlety or with any nuance. It's nearly always "Ugh, technology is objectively bad, you guys! The world is blind, but not me! I can see! I'm deep! Pay me money to stream it on your phone and I'll show you!!"

[@jennpark8559]

Imagine someone illegally streaming you via cctv-IP without you knowing and profiting from the nonconsensual exploitation bc that's what's going on with me under 100 pseudonyms used to obfuscate the exploitation and prevent me from tracking down the videos.

Not only is it a horribly predictable scene, it's also completely lacking in originality, practically pulled from the pages of a political cartoon, and just plain stupid. Having even one person at least *look* concerned could have done away with the unintentional comedy factor but the director just *had* to make a "statement" I guess

It is also a common trope with women walking straight into the ocean at the end of a story within literature and media. It represents breaking away from society, either from cleansing themselves in the water or by giving up and coming to terms with never being able to have autonomy in this society by killing themselves. a great example of this is the ending of The Awakening.

I just watched it tonight, and kept track of how well it held up. Fabrizio steered the RV into a tree, purposefully, to "avoid" the planted dead animal. They wound up right near the cabin he intended them to stay in. Fabrizio was the one who led Ricardo to the creepy Wicker Man-type hangings in the woods. Fabrizio purposefully lied about the direction the were going, making them go in circles and stay away from the beach. I liked this. Went into it completely blind on plot or synopsis, let alone watching a trailer. I feel this movie benefitted from not knowing anything about it before watching it.

[@shad03void99]

This movie's whole message is... Asinine. Yes, as a culture we (generally speaking) are desensitized to death, and pain. In media. I guarantee you that a person who consumes horror/action movies, games, and other alternative entertainment will piss themselves if a real murder was done in front of them. As for that girl as sea, people wouldn't just record, at least, not a majority. Give humans more credit then that, the message was alright, but very poorly done.

The worst example of this in recent memory now sounds like a overdone movie premise: a woman in Philadelphia was raped on the subway while ten witnesses filmed, but did not intervene.

I was really thinking this upload would be on Escape Room2: Tournament of Champions!! Next week maybe????

[@alexia4431]

See, I didnt actually mind this movie that much. But that's because the description on netflix unfortunately said "cabin in the woods meets midsommar" which ultimately made me think "oh well if its cabin in the woods like, that means someone is being filmed" so ultimately, the twist wasnt very impactful to me :( I wonder if I would have been just as annoyed as you at the hamfisting of horror tropes if I hadn't read the description.

Maybe her mom did it in a really mean or nasty way in the movie, I don't know I haven't seen it or that scene, but just off the description alone I don't totally disagree with the mom. Like yo, we put in a LOT of money into your college, at least finish it first before doing whatever you're going to do. At least have that one thing for your resume even if you go off to do something entirely different (on your own dime).

That scene with her hands go after the getting them out the nails is symbolic to the painting of the saint in the beginning.

"NEAT! ARTS AND CRAFTS" 😭😂😭 But for real, her boyfriend in the beginning had the most horrific death.

@@djmaus7909 You're right! That didn't make sense lol.

[@DaBonkinator]

Regarding being desensitized i feel a lot of people that critique society for it forget that we are so much more interconnected nowadays than before. When someone dies on the other side of the world we know thanks to the internet. We know that every single day thousands of people die horrific deaths, that there are so many murders left unsolved, even serial killings, there are people out there who are genuinely dangerous and are living their best life, and we know all of this. We are desensitized, yes, because it is a necessity. If we felt for every single death or every single violent crime there is in the world, we would be depressed and maybe even insane. Sadly that also translates to violence and death that happens around us.

[@kalobhunt9001]

So how did they just blink from the middle of the woods back to the cabin if it was real life.

[@nicmiller7685]

Early for once!! love your videos dude

[@AncestorEmpire1]

One day before I leave this realm of existence, I wish Foundflix to go over the 364 volumes of Berserk. Since the Manga is very horror film inspired, especially from Hellraiser.

[@1Deep43VA]

No doubt. Plus being one of the most beautiful drawn manga I've ever come across. Vagabond being a close second.

[@ebcm95____]

Definitely the way I’d love to see him break form and branch out.

[@lxdead5585]

Berserk is a mixture of many horror artists. Miura was inspired by Clive Barker's Hellraiser, Beksinski's and Bosch's paintings, religion and many, many more. Apostle designs are like 1:1 description of Old Testimony angels.

[@blingbwoy]

Yessss

[@snoox27]

Such a tempting manga to start with

[@shaylethorne2387]

Glad I saw your newest vid before someone copyright claimed it.

[@GravityRaider]

God, I absolutely hated watching this movie. Felt like a complete waste of time.

[@brianaphillips9417]

I just watched this recently, I'm so glad you made a video!! :)

[@campo957]

Just a couple of things you can only notice if you are Italian: while Elisa's and Riccardo's accent is pretty plain (although not inexistent), which is kinda standard for actors, Fabrizio's calabrian accent is as thick as it gets, marking a separation between the three (Calabria is a whole region, not a town, btw). Fabrizio, Chiara and the singing child often times speak dialect, especially in the more "frantic" moments, which is pretty difficult to understand and at times require subtitles for Italians too, so again, Elisa must feel extremely out of place. I feel like, while the movie is very well made, it can be too "out of there" for an Italian audience, I will try to summarize why: 1) Osso, Mastrosso and Carcagnosso are indeed the supposed founders of the Mafia, but their names sound really funny, thant kind of funny that would make a child chuckle, not exactly names you would cower at. Imagine them being called Tweedledee, Tweedledum and Rumplestinstkin. Yeah, not very intimidanting. 2) As you can imagine, the perception of the mob in Italy is quite different and the whole "the mafia is changing, we make snuff movies now" is so ridiculous it breaks the tension. I could not make a comparrison for an American audience, but do you all recall Scary movie 3 and those shenanigans between the USA president and the aliens? Him being a bloody moron making a fool of himslef? Well, the mafia in A classic horror story is the president of the USA in Scary movie 3. 3) The scene where Chiara argues with her brother is just hilarious. She in particular gesticulates way too much, especially for a girl that age, and although I get she is supposed to be much more mature and "ruthless" it feels a little too much. At times it all feels like a stereotype of people from Southern Italy. Jm2c PS: don't Mark and Sophia have a weird accent? It felt to me like they were pretending to be native English speakers.

[@Yahoooo.1]

14:30 , 15:01 Seriously did no one notice these obvious The Texas Chainsaw Massacre references ??! It’s obvious it was inspired by the famous Dinner Scene.

[@citystar2318]

Could you do “TimeCrimes”, “Kill List”, or “The Conspiracy”?

[@rofflesvanwagon]

Kill List is a great film. I imagine if he skipped Ben's newer movie in the earth that he won't be getting around to it any time soon. The conspiracy was fun for sure

[@redhill3248]

There is a 1994 Italian film called dellamorte dellamore starring Rupert Everett. It's also known as the cemetery man. Very strange film, I'd love to know what your take is.

[@moriahamerson]

Actually I'd love to know your take on a few Older films too. I like watching stuff from the forties and fifties when I can get my hands on it. Like murders in the zoo or the old dark house. Both are awesome

[@moriahamerson]

I really enjoy your videos. I've been watching for a while and love to listen to you describe movies I've already seen while I'm working or to see if a movie is worth my time or not. I'm a tough sell on films nowadays and you are thorough enough but also don't talk it to death so I will still be able to enjoy a watch through myself if it's a good flick. Thanks for all you do.

[@moriahamerson]

I like to alternate between you and Oliver Harper's retrospectives, I wonder if you know that channel? Logan's run is a perfect one to start off with. OH gives a bit more context around the films developments but that also means his vids can be very long and require more focus to enjoy sometimes.

[@Pooky1991]

I have a soft spot for meta horror like this. At first i was not sure ehat to think of this movie, but as it went along i got into it more and more and enjoyed the twist. I will admit thought, the end on the beach took me out a little. I know what they were tryig to say, but it was so on the nose it hit the threshold for my "suspension of disbelief" meter.
