[@neverbackdown1918]

Right, but who knows how strong it is at the beginning. Also, the demon can only make you hallucinate your actions. It cannot undo the actions of other people. So if someone were to kidnap you and leave you stranded in some remote location, I don’t think the demon would be able to undo that action.

I think the only way to "trap" the entity is if the victim's friends and family members isolate them in a room in the middle of nowhere and let the victim die alone. The group can't know when the person dies as they'll experience trauma, and the cycle repeats. I say trap because if someone else stumbles upon the body, they'll experience trauma, and the entity continues on, and the group wouldn't know the entity is freed.

[@blak238]

I think this is a misconception about the movie, the demon doesn’t get transferred just because you watch the person die, it will only transfer if the death causes trauma. Trauma is what feeds it. Remember the guy in the prison said if you want to kill someone to transfer the demon, make sure it’s gruesome enough to cause trauma. In real life, the manner of death is mostly likely to cause trauma than the death itself.

[@lulluf6392]

Actually the easiest way to beat Smile would've been to seek psychiatric help. Ironic, given that our main character was a psychiatrist. If she told her boss that she's worried she might be a danger to herself or to others (which she 100% was), they might've put her on suicide watch until the demon starved. But against better judgement, our psychiatrist just kept running around in circles even after she killed her own cat. I really liked the movie, probably the scariest horror flick in recent years to me but those are the thoughts I had when I watched it. Clarification: I know we all like to get into the nitty-gritty of how exorcisms and demons are supposed to work but this entire movie has an overt message: If you are in distress, seek help. This whole film was a metaphor for how dismissive people can be in regards to mental illness. The stigma of "being crazy" made Rose not want to seek psychiatric help and in the end she "lost the battle against her demons" if you know what I mean.

[@marcusplenty1153]

The problem being is it spreads by having other people watch you kill yourself. So if she was on suicide watch she has to be watched. Even In a padded cell a possessed person can easily kill themselves

[@marcusplenty1153]

This is a pretty unbeatable situation. outside of going to a private island and cutting off all access to tools that allow her to get off it, or killing someone, I don’t see what she could have done. Especially because of how much the demon can influence the possessed reality

As a person with a history of hallucinations, I know all too well the unsettling feeling of not being able to trust your senses. One thing that's helped me cope is grounding myself in reality. If I see something, then it vanishes, I don't panic, but rather remind myself that's not how reality works and it was never really there in the first place. If I see a lamp sway, or the floor ripple, or a wall look like it's about to tip over on me, I know that's not how reality operates, those things don't do that. If I feel something crawl on my skin or hear a voice, I verify the source and check it mentally against what I know about reality. It's saved my sanity through the years. It's something I've lived with since childhood and rational analysis has been the biggest help in coping.

I've never heard of fire representing the present and also stress can represent all the tenses of time as thinking of something or dealing with stress can relate to thoughts of the past, present, or future events. So it feels like you're kinda reaching especially since I think the theme of the film has more to do with mental health and how people who have issues both deal with it and are treated by others more so than just how you "defeat the devil in your mind" (especially since she doesn't even defeat it). That and how traumatic events can effect you and by extension other people that you come into contact with creating more trauma.

It is almost represented like an unknown phenomenon.) is seemingly impossible to rid of, except the obvious that is stated in the movie; to kill someone and have a witness. Or yourself. If you also watch "Laura hasn't slept", which is the prequel to this movie, it gives more insight and just really solidifes that once you get involved with the Smile "thing", that is it, game over. With that being said, highly recommend anyone to watch this. It is the first good horror movie I've seen in forever, and doesn't have that resolution that most horror movies do.

Exactly! Tha man in jail said that it has to be gruesome enough to cause trauma. Stopping a heart then restarting it again wouldn't work. It's a controlled environment with precautions in place if something were to go wrong.

[@Haephasto]

Ironically, the way to defeat the demon is to just not care about it. The trauma compounds on itself over time, so if she would have for example just ignored the smiling patient and not give a damn, it would have not gotten more control. And she discovers about the trauma when meeting with the prisoner, so there are dozens of ways of reducing the amount of trauma from then on. It would then slowly get weaker. The hallucinations in the beginning are not very big and/or upsetting or even elaborate, but they become bigger and more elaborate as she becomes more unhinged. Obviously, it's a movie and all that, but I hate how 90% of the bad stuff could have been easier to get through by simply communicating. Like to her boss: "I think this case has impacted me quite a lot, because I'm starting to see things. Can you give me some medication that will help me calm down?" Et voila. Meds = no trauma. Demon staved off. Another interesting thing, people with depression are less capable of feeling strong emotions. Would this mean depressed people are immune to the curse? Like imagine the scene with the patient going "You are going to die?" and the person replying with: "Yes, please. Can you help?" :D

The cat thing could also be explained. When was the last time she saw her cat? If it’s with a sitter or at a care center then she could call them and confirm the cat wasn’t killed by her.

And why would people freak out and turn against her if she starts crying over her dead cat. There’s no proof she killed it or knew it was in the box in the first place. The sister seems to just be a bitch and needed to be appeased or avoided.

The thing about this curse is that it is already in her mind and can make her see and do things that aren't real from the very beginning. In other universes like conjuring the demon has to slowly make the target fear itself so that it can feed of this fear and dominate the target. I think the smile works similar but instead of trying to implant the fear from outside to take over the victim of the smile gets cursed once they see the previous victim kill itself. The smile then spreads like a virus via inflicted trauma on a person and goes inside their head since non of the things rose saw was ever real. If the smile can read her mind or not is questionable but it was already way more powerful in the beginning than common demons. It made her kill and wrap her cat as a present without her noticing it which would require a very complex illusion or a temporary full body takeover. Theoretically the whole birthday party and the fight with her sister could have been a illusion to make her think she has no one to trust anymore as it noticed the tension at the restaurant. I believe for the smile to take over it is required that the victim fears the smile to death which then allows the smile to take over the body and kill them. As we saw the previous girl terrified in a corner in fear it might see the curse again and then escalating in fear completely as the smile pretended to be the therapist. With no escape and the fear to die the smile took over her and killed her in front of rose which inflicted enough trauma to spread over to her. Now rose as a therapist strongly believes she knows what is real and what's not and trust in herself that she has her life full under her control. With small hallucinations the curse starts to implant doubts on herself and on her reality but to make her fall from believing in herself it had to show her that she truly had lost control over her actions by killing her cat and make her look crazy in front of everyone. As a therapist you should have a good understanding how the patients feel if no one trusts or believes them and her fear would of course be that no one believes her and turns against her. But she held on to believe she could escape or destroy the curse by confronting it so the curse tricked her into believing she defeated it. Thats when she left her guard down and the curse revealed it's trick. Coughed off guard she ran away only to find herself in a way worse position: back at her old house but now with a witness and a reason for the curse to kill her. She realized that she ran out of time and options to escape and cornered in her old house with her death sentence behind the door the fear of death is very reasonable. A witness to die and the fear of a inevitable death all the requirements for the curse were met as she gave up on her knees accepting death. My theory on how to beat the curse is do not fall into fear. In the old house in her illusion, i think this was the first time the curse tried to take over her but her believe that without a witness the curse wouldn't kill her she had enough mental strength to dominate the curse even to it could just have taken over her and simply walk to the next piece of civilization. The curse noticed that she didn't fear it enough and that it couldn't win in this moment so it changed its plan and pretended like it was defeated. Showing her that it was not made her believe that it was invincible and her fear of death came back and gave the curse the upper hand again. To truly defeat the curse you have to make the curse fear you to death. If in her ex boyfriends apartment she would have faced the curse a second time in stead of running away the curse would have start fearing her realizing she figured out how to beat it and she wouldn't fear it again thus taking its power over her away and leaving the curse vulnerable now. Knowing that if you don't fear the curse it becomes powerless you will automatically less fear it and it will slowly starve to death.

[@aceknight6622]

i don't think thats the case tho i mean if she accepted it where would the demon go? also she tried killing it and i her mind killed it but it turns out she didn't. i don't think its legitimately possible to kill it. i mean we never even get a clear understanding of what it is. we don't even know if it can be killed. im confused on how tricked her and what if you were to try and kill yourself?. i mean a witness seems to.be required for it to pass on so what if you deliberately try and end your life early? or what if someome kills you? if you were to die from something that isn't the demons fault amd there were no witnesses wouldn't the demon just cease to exist? idk this seems like the only.way to kill it.

@@aceknight6622 thats a good one actually, I don't think the curse would let you kill yourself, for example if you were to jump of a bridge the curse would probably make you hallucinating the whole thing and after you died you would just wake up on top of the bridge again like rose did in her car as she tried to kill her patient. I don't know why someone else should kill you in your time of being cursed and even if it would probably give said person enough trauma for the curse to spread. The thing about it is we don't know how to kill it. Everything i theorized earlier is mainly how to survive your first 5 days and dominate the curse. If you manage to survive 4 days it's likely that you will survive for longer or at least for as long as you don't fear the curse. After that you can experiment if the curse will just stfu forever now or if you can exorcise it, but most likely you will have to live with it forever like a mental disorder.

If you put into factor how emotionally strong humans are, this creatures tactics suddenly seem much smarter.

[@MeYou-gb7zy]

It’s literally a metaphor for people that have been traumatized now go on to hurt others either on purpose or accidentally. “Hurt people hurt people”

[@calcium9398]

One way to tell if someone is the demon or not, such as the therapist when she showed up at the woman's house, would be to ask personal questions that the demon wouldn't be able to answer. The demon wouldn't know things like the birthday or the name of the significant other of whoever they're disguised as, so if they dodge the question you can easily tell they are a hallucination. When knowing its a demon through this method, you could try laughing in its face and mocking it, since it relies on trauma, this would give you a better time in dealing with it. Hell I deal with hallucinations myself that are usually people and I tend to call them names and stuff to deal with it. The demon relies on someone witnessing a death and being traumatized by it in order to pass on to another victim. With this in mind, you could easily wander into an area like a national park or forest and, well, kill yourself out of sight of everyone and let your body be eaten by animals living in the area or degrade over time, if you can't beat it after all, might as well make it go down with you. If you isolate yourself for long enough with the demon, you'll know that it is messing with you when it disguises as others, especially if you don't tell anyone where you're going. The demon at that point may run out of options if it can't get you to kill yourself in front of others, since you'd be on your own so the curse wouldn't pass on.

[@dr.penguin3442]

Yeah, but if the demon has access to your mental. It could pull the details to answer whatever question you ask. But again, unless I’m forgetting something, we don’t know how much access to our memories/brain it has.

I saw the creator (I believe that's who it was) talk a bit about it and mentioning how people want to know their monsters are beatable, that they can win the fight. Nothing is scarier than doing everything right, and still losing. Healing is a lifelong journey, not a 4 day or 2 month or 1 year journey, a lifelong one. The goal isn't to entirely defeat our monsters, but to live with them and let them know that we are the bosses, not them.

Well it seems like the demon has the power to change the actual reality. First it literally killed the cat and took the body. And notice how the dead cat was switched with the kid’s train present. Rose never did this, the item got wrapped at the store, so the demon has more abilities we can’t be sure off. Most likely it would remove the restraints.

[@m.a.749]

@@KeemJL I don't think that's it. I think the entity only exists in the mind of a person, not in the material world. This is shown by the little boy who received the cat, when he looked outside his window only to see the main character losing her mind in her car. From her perspective, we can see her sister's neck bend awkwardly through the car window. From the boy's perspective, we only see her getting terrified in her car. During the birthday itself, she sees her dead patient, but nobody else sees her. The entity doesn't change reality, it tricks the mind and can not actually physically do things aside from possessing people who are in a weak mental state. Even in the end fight, we see the entity burn and the mc return to the cop's house. But later on, we realize that none of this actually happened as she's back in her old home in front of it (the entity). Everything was just mental torment to get the mc in a weaker state so the entity could feed off her and possess her when the time came. With that being said, I believe that the mc did kill her cat, thinking she was doing something else. Again, let's go back to the end scene where she thinks she's in the cop's house. She sees the house, and the cop, and believes that that is actually happening. But then the scene cuts back to her being in the old house. She probably thought she was making dinner or something when in reality, she was killing her cat and putting it in the gift box. I didn't use names because I watched this movie a while ago and forgot them, and I haven't fully watched the video yet.

You have to feel sorry for Rose here. Everyone in her life except Joel either turned their backs on her when they could have made a difference, or dismissed her as having a mental breakdown. Her fiancée was no help, but her sister was the worst, as she knew better than anyone the trauma she endured, and washed her hands of her, making this the SECOND time she abandoned her (first time I believe was when they were kids, when she moved out and left Rose there to deal with their mother alone). The reaction at the birthday party disaster was understandable, but I am specifically referring to the sister's behavior afterward. But I think this was a metaphor how many people tend to either not understand or not want to deal with someone who is struggling with their mental health. As I mentioned earlier, Joel tried to help, and he deserves credit for his efforts, but in the end was too late. Maybe (this is probably just me being naïve, but it is a thought anyway) if he had be quick enough to restrain her or somehow try to smother the flames and save her life... Point is, it comes to show how we need to be with loved ones who are open to trying to understand what we are going through and helping us when we are struggling. That the affirmation that they love us and will help us get through those dark moments, not giving up, instead of having to face them alone...I don't know what difference that would have made here but still...

If the entity could be tricked into latching onto someone who’s already suicidal, what’s to stop that person from just going into the woods and “taking one for the team”, so to speak? Without witnesses, there’d be no way for it to spread

When she headed off to her childhood house I actually thought that's where the movie was going 😅 Like "wow, this mental health themed movie is gonna have _that_ be the solution??"

[@ThatOneGuyJeroen]

Question. If you were to kill in front of someone who wouldn't get traumatized by this, would you still have the curse? Or would it be forced to pass on, but get denied access to the next person, because this person didn't experience trauma. If this were to be the case, murdering someone in front of a serial killer would be a permanent way to defeat this creature.

[@ThatGuy-jj3kz]

It wouldn't spread as the entity spreads through trauma. The entity will stay inside you if there's no trauma in the death. Now, if you killed someone traumatically and kill the next host, you could beat the entity. However, it won't work because now the entity knows what you know and will make constant hallucinations until it kills you.

The “If you…” at the beginning always cheers me up.

[@paellaking9007]

I wouldn't even wish this Curse upon my worst enemy.

[@tonytom5242]

I felt like this is a spiritual successor to "It Follows" Sam and Dean Winchester Noped the fuck out of this one

I was so hoping for a video today and when this came out I burst into happiness!!!😂😂

13:18 Running away before it's too late is a great strategy, especially since she is dating A-Train.

HAHA I THOUGHT THE SAME THING

The birthday part almost made me leave the theater in fear.

[@laydieb1571]

Problem with poisoning someone is that the death has to be traumatic and witnessed. They can't die in their sleep.

[@Jack-mb4jx]

What upset me about this movie is that it makes you think her overcoming and learning to deal with the trauma of her past and thus being able to appear to fight back against the entity made me so mad, she did it, she learned to deal with and accept what happened...and overcame it only to still give up at the end and accept it taking her over. Then the guy...like dude if you can't get through the door quickly there are some windows you could easily get in through...then on top of that you see her pouring something over herself and once you saw that smile you should have tackled her to keep it from being able to use her to get to him, at the very least they would have probably both died or there be no witness during the process thus probably not allowing it to transfer.

[@morphogenetic_]

Right! In the scene at the end I was yelling "dude don't look!", since he knows the curse transmits by witnessing something traumatic, he should be aware!

[@Jack-mb4jx]

@@morphogenetic_, let's be honest the man could've done so many things but became a Deer in Headlights. Also if he calls this in I wonder how the cops would react....ok you know what I would support making a sequel. There's to much lore setup that isn't given justice that needs to be touched up on, and I want to know how it goes on to affect him and how he reacts to it.

[@Jack-mb4jx]

Ok, so if they don't make a Squeal that does the Movie justice with what happened to the first movie I will be greatly upset. "It was a box office success, grossing $216 million worldwide against a $17 million budget." -- Wikipedia So excluding any unknown expenses (anything not listed as a cost in the budget) this movie nearly made $200 Million in profit.

[@traviscummings9178]

Slight correction: none of the victims lasted longer than a week, with some lasting only four days

[@michaelcordero7061]

Seeing all these evil entity based horror movies makes me want to go watch supernatural where Sam and Dean kick supernatural ass.

[@kobaltblueknight]

I wonder if the demon would stop you from doing the deed with no one around, on your own terms. That would, theoretically, end the chain with you.

The sister walking to the car and stretching her neck around actually made my skin crawl, that was NOT okay.

16:00 actually sight hasn’t been the only thing because there also was a ghost and it whispered in our ear

When she tried to kill someone, she became possessed. Congrats. You taught everyone how to die.

Makes you wonder if she ever actually went to the prison no way for us to know what really happened

You are so good at walking through it in a detailed, but still captivating way

Bruh how does HTB go from seeing baggy eyes to uncovering a secret affair between a Ph.D. student and a professor? Forget the apocalypse, make this man a detective, we might finally find out who the Zodiac Killer is.

@@3xtremelamborghini It's unconfirmed though. "The Case Breakers" claimed it was a man who died, so we'll never truly know if they're right or not 🤷‍♂

The best reason to watch this man is because he basically recaps movies for free.
