[@LukaMamukelashvili]

@@vexyn3941 I don't think you realize but most nerds are invisible to "super hot girls". The one with curse would most likely target people who are easier to sleep with and who have a lot of sex, like prostitutes or party freaks. Although not typical, I'm kind of a nerd myself and if some random chick came up to me with an intention to fuck me, I'd be skeptical af. Also, you have to be outgoing for the person with curse to even notice you, and even if for some reason they choose you, you're like the worst target they can go for, cause you might have guessed it but nerds don't fuck a lot, so they'll just die and get the curse back.

[@Dashi42100]

What I like about the entity is that it presents at first as mindless. It just walks at you, slowly, until it kills. However, in a few scenes (like the scene where it is just standing on a rooftop) we can see the entity does not always walk at the victim. To me, this changes it from a mindless curse to a malicious being. It seems to understand the concepts of fear, intimidation, and terror. It is also able to move with enough force to throw an attacker off by several feet, punch a hole in a door, or pounce, so it can likely move its legs fast too if it wished. I can't help but feel the walk is a choice. It wants its victims to live in paranoia and fear before eventually falling prey.

The worst thing about this thing is how often it’s been passed. if it is a curse, there has to be a condition to end it other than just everyone dying. But so many people have been chained through any origin of its conception is entirely lost and as such finding the counter curse is impossible.

No kidding. I would of taken the time to do some research on this curse. The curse is unique compared to common ones and you already know it's linked through sex, a spirit follows you, cannot be killed or stop, and changes appearances. You're bound to find something on it. If not, some people on the internet will have ideas on how to stop it. You got people who read and study this stuff religiously.

Well, here might be a loop hole. What if you sleep with the person that got you cursed a second time. The entity is transfered by one night stands, so if you don’t make it a one night stand, and instead a full sexual relationship, wouldn’t that nullify the curse?

It could be that its a never ending one. Many Humans die daily to different causes. One more wont even be noticed. This curse could potentially be going since ancient times.

Step 1: Get spray paint, bed sheets, paintballs and other means of dying the entity. Step 2: Locate the nearest HIGH SECURITY military base, for example Area 51 or an Airforce base with no Civilian entry. Step 3: Make the entity visible in front of the guards when it approaches after having explained the situation to them calmly. Step 4: Congratulations, this thing is basically guaranteed to be dissected on a table by the end of the week.

[@onewingedluffy]

I think this is the best answer. The fact that the entity can be made visible to others and it can interact with others, is its biggest weakness.

The ending is different. They do know that it follows them while they're walking. They don't give it to other people and keep it on purpose so they can controll it.

People misunderstand this movie as being a metaphor for STDs or SA. It's actually about existential dread and mortality. Sex is one of the main things we use to distract ourselves from the inevitable, along with relationships and romance, but it still comes for us. It takes the form of Jaye's dead father and grandfather. Greg's mom seems to be fine, but like a death of a parent out of nowhere it gets him, and leads to his own death. Then all the objects they throw into the pool--appliances--are things we use to distract ourselves as well. Objects of mundanity like an iron. Entertainment like a TV. About the only thing that can help us against it are those we love, but... it can still get them, and in the end, it will always come for us too. There is no escape.

Didn't think that'd be so hard for you to understand, or idk maybe you don't associate yourself with hobbies. Also you've said "You think too deep", but nowhere in the world is thinking too deeply a crime lol, and tbh she's not wrong either. Maybe if we think "too deep" on something, or try thinking outside the box a bit, understanding might be a lot easier for some.

The military would most likely use you as part of the experiments, or at the very least you would be kept secret under government protection simply for knowing about the entity.

[@matthewhardwick8208]

Honestly I would learn how to fly a helicopter and live on an island completely isolated from any roads, towns or cities. Assuming it can only walk directly from it's location to yours? It cannot possibly get to you without an ability to swim or teleport. Which I'm pretty certain it can't do either of those things. It wouldn't get into the swimming pool voluntarily. As long as you have enough distance, food and fuel for the helicopter you can travel anywhere you need to be relatively easily. You could even mark specific landing areas where you know it would take a ridiculous amount of time for the entity to walk. So you can restock on supplies.

1. calculate travel time of the it, make sure it's consistent. Do 100 tests, if necessary - you need to be certain about the time. 2. construct traps, that would hold it in place for even a short period of time. Test until you have something, that can reliably hold it for at least a minute. The process: move X miles, giving you enough time to set the trap, set the trap, test, move. 3. once you have the trap, that can hold it for at least some time, capture it and rape it.

[@Tee_Arts23]

A little quote from IT applies here "All things must abide by the laws of the form they inhabit". This thing chooses human forms to pursue its victims, which (while bullets can't kill it) means that its strength can't be that far above an average human's. Testing it's limitations in terms of how strong it actually is would be a very useful piece of information. Your idea of encasing it in concrete is great, but let's take it further by exposing it to extreme conditions. Take a trip to Death Valley and see how it responds to the extreme heat. If we can, pop on the fastest boat to Antarctica and drag it through the extreme cold as well as the constant chance of taking a dunk in sub-zero waters. From what we can see, the entity can swim, but how well? Does it move slower in water, similar to how humans do?

I just thought about that. You wait in line for check-in, passport and even for the other passengers. Plane is a good way to put yourself in a trap. I also think that if "it" is tactical and always know your location, "It" can basically board in another plane.

[@WillowJordan1979]

In the first scene, the girl runs in a loop, waiting for the creature to start walking towards her, and then she runs into the house and back. This would imply that the creature has to walk in your footsteps, and if you walk a loop, it also has to walk that same loop. If that's the case, you could just walk/drive to the airport making lots of unnecessary twists and turns. By the time the creature has made the same twists and turns, you're already on the plane. Since it can't pass through matter without breaking stuff, it can no longer enter the plane once the doors are closed. You can't just break plane windows. The only option is to board the next plane. The creature is then dependent on plane routes, weather conditions etc. and if you take a very long flight, you'd be OK for at least a few days.

Not really it’s explained it’s a line it kills the most recent person it coming back means the hooker and who ever the hooker slept with were killed if the protag gets killed it would go back to try and kill the ex boyfriend

[@ahastar1141]

@@logandelaharpe6362 The biggest key for the boyfriends survival was letting her know it exists and to avoid it. Just passing it on means that the entity can slaughter through its next victims like crazy since they won't be running from it. However if you give the people you pass it to the info that something is coming after them, they have incentive not to get caught and therefore will buy you more time. The key to the whole thing is that the subsequent people who get it passed to them know everything about the curse so they run. Otherwise, it will end up back at the last informed person in a few days

[@urbanstrider]

I wonder what the origin of this curse would be. Wouldn't the first person who was cursed just get killed and end it before it really spread because they wouldn't have any knowledge of the entity?

[@InitialPC]

saw another comment where they theorized the curse started to get revenge on an adulterer AND their affair partner, which would require the entity to jump between targets, guess it didn't go the way the caster planned

[@ebenserfontein8145]

Probably not as it can't drown...It seems like things fatal to us just don't affect it. Although perhaps by it floating around in space it won't be able to walk to you lol. I'm wondering since it has a physical form and does get "wounded" (almost as if it has a healing factor) perhaps you can destroy it's body enough to the point where it physically can't chase you anymore. Maybe like cut it's limbs off and cauterise the stubs so they don't grow back (if it can even grow them back) or, with your space theory, chuck it into the sun haha.

Schizophrenia as a movie

[@rasmachris94]

The easiest solution is the most obvious; Sleep with as many as people as possible and inform the person that you've slept with after the fact telling them to sleep with as many people as possible. The end result here isn't to avoid getting killed, it's to make everyone aware of it. There is a rule of something like knowing 7 people means you can communicate with anyone in the world. If you follow that logic the sleeping tracks similarly. As a result everyone can now see the entity and the governments would collectively be responsible for their own sake to take it out in some way or another like luring it onto a space ship aimed at the sun. People are far more cooperative once their asses are on the line. The main question i have is: What happens it reaches sum zero? Let's assume that it kills all of its targets and anyone that had the curse is dead, then doesnt it just die out? Following that logic, once you're aware of the problem but not cursed your best course of action is allowing your friend to be killed and anyone before them so that the curse can die out and you can sleep with whoever you like without repercussions.

[@youngblud7692]

I love the consistency of you posting vids. Keep it up💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥

[@Kiri_irik]

Although the question here is how to beat it, I like the interpretation of the entity as fear of something that can't be overcome (say, fear of death). And from this point of view, the last scene of the movie doesn't depict the couple cluelessly walking down the street but rather them having accepted that the entity will keep following them after all those episodes of denial -> fighting back (-> reconciliation)

If a capture plan does not work, then get as much money as you can and go to any place that has 'adult' tourism.

Hell, if you do this in several countries it would only take a couple of weeks to keep this thing off you permanently.

16:00 The only thing i disagree with, is spreading the curse through the entire world to an X amount of people, Because unless its infinite, You just lost your only protection, and that is knowledge. Each of the people the curse is spreading to doesn't know about the curse, meaning the moment the entity is there, they are dead. So you are relaying on Travel time. That means that some X amount of time later. it will come back to you. But now you don't know it. You might have even forgot about it if its been years. You wouldn't have a reason to question every person walking. or who you are walking to towards. You have lost sight of an entity that will EVENTUALLY come back to you. But on the second time around your insight into the curse is the exact same as everyone else's. You don't know anything about it at all anymore. who, when, where, how. The only work around I see is always checking to see if the first person you slept with died. But that still doesn't mean they died from the entity and you could be running for no reason. In-fact keeping names or connections with people in the chain wouldn't work at all because if any of them die naturally, that you haven't been talking to, then the entity skips it. and you think the entity has 2,3 or 4 people left to go through, when in-fact it's only 1. Added on that, You wouldn't actually know if the person you were talking to got killed by the entity or by an actual cause. Because again, no one in this chain even knows its happening, again forcing you to feel chased when no-one is actually after you. I don't think throwing away the knowledge and information you have on the entity to a life sacrificing gamble is worth it at the end.

[@logandelaharpe6362]

That’s why you prep have better plans in place research the best ways to have it be seen higher power weapons have a butch of people ready to restrain it after it’s shot with a elephant gun or a fifty cal then have them throw it though a wood chipper or industrial meat grinder or both see how well it reforms

The plan regarding Jay sleeping with other people in Australia should’ve been the plan for her group. It would’ve been awkward and changed their group dynamic forever, but at least everyone would’ve been able to see the entity and then they would know if only one spawns to go after the last person, or if multiple versions of it can come after them. Would’ve been a lot better than their grand plan of trying to electrocute it by using their friend as bait.

[@BigOversIzeT01L3T]

The best way to survive horror movies is to work out the age rating of the movie you're in. If it's less than a 15 just spend all night wanking off. They can't show that so there is no reason for the monster to attack. Spend the day in a sex toy store or another inappropriate place with a lot of naked people. If you are going to sleep have multiple naked people around you. If you are in a 15+ just go to sleep and hope it kills you while you are unconscious

No for real though. Agreeing to inherit a curse that you have to run from for the rest of your life is wild. Even if you choose the option to sleep with someone You’ll have to explain the curse and if they are killed it can still come back to you. Which is a terrible way to live.
