Great way to bypass the bystander effect: Single out a person (“You!”) Give specific instruction (“Get 911 on the phone”) Give context of what is needed and what the situation is (“We need an ambulance, he’s bleeding out here”) The lack of these cues can leave bystanders confused and in analysis paralysis, which is part of the compounding cause of bystander effect. If you make it personal and real to a person instead of an impersonal scene, if you give them specific instructions, you are more likely to be able to get people to engage and help you.

I was actually really impressed with this movie, at least with how it's absolutely believable that a cruddy mayor/governor/etc could allow something like this (parasite/virus/infection/etc) to get this bad. The scenes that really hit me in this movie were how the one doctor remains working in the hospital after the rest of the staff had long gone, and the little girl left alone with just her friend on facetime/zoom/whatever to talk to. I'm also just really fascinated by parasites (my favorite class in the vet tech program) so I thought the isopods were cool

11:36 That's true for thermally driven desalination, however, reverse osmosis desalination uses a pump to pressurize water before sending it through a series of membranes. There is a stage called pre-treatment that involves filtering out inorganic and organic debris suspended in the water, which would include microorganisms like the parasite larvae. That said, an important point in the movie is that the small town is not wealthy by any means, which is important to keep in mind when considering the most likely SOPs for preventative maintenance (PM) schedules in the municipal desalination plant. Why does this matter? That's because while the town may be able to fund the basic upkeep of the plant, it most likely schedules PM to be as economically responsible as possible so as to not overburden the town budget. Therefore they most likely use filters and membranes up to and beyond the manufacturer's recommendation as long as post-treatment tests are showing that the water passes the safety parameters measured. The reality though is that the filters deteriorate rapidly over time becoming less effective in preventing microorganisms from passing through. This is only made worse by the development of biofilms in the system, including on the membranes and filters themselves. The removal/prevention of biofilms is another very, VERY expensive and time-consuming type of PM that may be overlooked/delayed until either government regulation mandates it or the water begins to fail to pass the safety parameters that the plant tests post-treatment. In short, the premise of the movie is feasible.

[@R77ification]

After all it was a key plotpoint that the town's government was corrupted to hell and back, so them letting the water system expire is implied.

[@samb5963]

You worded it perfectly. I’ve worked with reverse osmosis units - holy shit the upkeep needed to prevent membrane degradation and biofilms was impossible due to how little people want to actually spend on proper maintenance. A lot of people installing these things do not realise how much they are not just making a one-time purchase, let alone get the proper training to ensure they know how to properly maintain them so that they work properly instead of being a blatant contamination risk. I 100% believe someone like the mayor as portrayed in the film to be one of those people.

[@roxrequiem2935]

I haven't worked with such systems but as someone from an archipelago, we have a separate water system for drinking because the damn costs of desalinating water is too much for small islands, so we often have these small businesses of water purifying services. They filter water and sell them by the gallon, anyway, what I often see is exactly this. When the owners of such purifying/filtering services get stingy on the filters you can deffo taste the salt/sediments. Sometimes it tastes like straight up rust. Only distilled water is the safest, but such things are EXTREMELY expensive.

I imagine that there might have been atleast 2 infection sources and 3 diseases arriving "at once". First we have a more traditional infection that "only" causes boils and similar immune reactions, this may escalate with a much more deadly meningitis that also causes the kind of delirium that we saw. These two related infections are then mostly separate from the actual parasite that in this scenario didn't have to infect everyone for this chaos to emerge. This could explain the shorter quarantine. Many escapees had the traditional infection that rarely killed if you didn't get meningitis, which required you to be infected in mouth, nose, or ears (or if parasites broke apart blood vessels). The parasites themselves were much more dangerous but also fewer and easier to spot.

as many times as this is re-uploaded i shall watch.

[@giftedfox4748]

That is good because the last two he looses his funds of the hard work he put and the place that claimed it gets the funds instead.

YOu hit the nail right one the head regarding Maryland Roanoke.

[@evilnick2885]

so would a situation like this basically be "leave it alone until the need for cannibalism hits and they destroy themselves" or would their exponential reproduction cause some kind of accelerated evolution and we'd be dealing with flying brain eating crustaceans........ which would come first

[@stormjin2242]

Cannabalism every time, the extreme removal of predators of the creature and loss of access to food means they start eating anything, even each other

[@gabrielabatista6016]

If they don't start to die soon enough, just throw some small bombs and set the wholr place ablaze. I don't think they're fireproof anyways, and you'd probably need to torn down a bunch of stuff to make sure there are no isopods left; so just burn and rebuild everything anyways, that way you can be sure there are none left on land.

[@skepticalmagos_101]

If the desalination plant uses reverse osmosis and the filters were damaged or faulty then the larvae could perhaps make it into the waterpipe network.

[@jamesspooky9488]

I absolutely loved this movie. I watched it when I was a teenager and it stuck with me as just an amazing concept for a horror/thriller

[@emilymk12]

Omfg I love this movie, I don’t care what the reviews say I will watch this 500 times in a row before I EVER turn on one of the “critically acclaimed” piles of shit we have today

[@lucianaromulus1408]

Yeah I really enjoyed this movie too....original too.

"This can be solved with a water boil order and telling people to stay out of the water." Americans: "But muh Freedum! You can't make me!"

[@electricpiggy301]

"Seems like every time I make these the internet gets worse and worse" talk about a statement that stays true no matter how many times you hear it

[@sumsayslug]

You know you have a good fanbase when people will watch the "same" video 3 times🤣🤦🏾. I'll watch it a forth time it's great content 👍🏾👍🏾

[@Ok_Friend-il9of]

Holy crap I’ve seen this movie! My dad was watching it when I was a kid and the seen where the lady laying down jumps up and attacks the cops. I actually thought that was real and had nightmares months after that

[@ijustwatchvideosandleaveco1004]

Yeah, bystander effect is more of “someone else will deal with it” rather than “I don’t wanna engage”. I think it’s pretty cool you mentioned that though, as most people would think everyone were being jerks or somehting

[@user-nu8in3ey8c]

There was a real life parasite that was killing fish that dissolved part of the spine of a researcher that was studying it because an air filter was installed backwards in his office. It was a fluke that caused Waterman's disease. People in and around the water were getting ill. Real Responders covered it pretty well. It is a video worth a watch. This video reminds me of that coverage of a real life event that was similar in some ways.

[@darkknight11311]

Ah shit, here we go again. How many times do we have to teach you this lesson KZbin?

[@TheSoCalledZoner1]

yeah you're kinda hypocritical when it comes to full movies with shitty editing

[@nightingaleseraph]

If that’s what happens with common scavenger isopods i couldn’t imagine what’d happen with more protein driven species like P. laevis.

[@torIIgo]

If that's the case, then I should definitely keep my Dairy Cows well fed and content. Lol!

[@nightingaleseraph]

@@torIIgo I do that anyway because they’ll destroy their leaf litter and wood.

[@torIIgo]

@@nightingaleseraph Mine haven't got to that level yet as the colony is still very young. I had to start over ever since a white dwarf somehow infiltrated my setup and basically starved them off. But, in addition to my cows, I also have some powder oranges, and a party mix that somehow came with scabers like a couple of Spanish Oranges and possible Whiteouts. Either way, I'm choosing the oranges for my African fat tailed bioactive setups.

The flood theme from halo there at the end triggers me to no end brother

[@rubyredproject7055]

"The hellscape named Maryland" Buddy, I'm a native to Delmarva (Delaware, Maryland, Virginia) and let me say this. You're absolutely correct. I hope that parasite comes and makes this middle of nowhere into something horrid

[@outrageous-alex]

Quick Chicken Facts; I worked for a chicken feed manufacturer / chicken farm company and got trained on the facts, basically back in the day they used to use antibiotics on chickens to help with growth, for some reason chickens grow larger with antibiotics. In the last 20 years this has stopped and now in the US it's illegal to have antibiotics or growth hormones or steroids in the feed or chickens. What you CAN do is put vitamins in the feed which does help with growth and keeps them healthy without "worrisome additives". They could have easily made this movie real science and made it better. Tongue Isopods don't eat your tongue, they snip off fish blood supply to it, and take place of the tongue so the animal can keep living as it lays more eggs for more to develop in the body. I thought that is where this was going because if a tongue is missing then maybe they didn't notice it wasn't their real tongue and it left. Which they could have said they adapted to humans and the larva eat the inside of the humans enough to kill them. Idk why radiation would have anything to do with it. While radiation can cause mutations in creatures it's only that creature, and then only passed down if it's in the Germline and only if that can still breed. So it's VERY unlikely a "beneficial" mutation would happen anywhere near that fast. Also the fact that nuclear power and water is always MUCH cleaner than the water going in, as it is filtered and cleaned and tested constantly. Nuclear plants have much less radiation contamination then most other power plants, like coal or oil. So it's just a stupid trope.

[@wittyreviewer]

All of this reminds me of a documentary I saw once years ago. It was about an SAS team that got stranded and had to walk their way back through enemy lines. Apparently they carry these things that are supposed to help make water drinkable? I think it was something that kills bacteria or some such. It wasn't chlorine I don't think, and I'm pretty sure the idea was just to make it safe enough so that you can take a gulp, not chug a bottle of it.

[@Toker888]

This was of those movies i watched as a kid without telling my parents. Now it lowkey haunts me, weird movie great video.

[@bluedragon8762]

A HORROR MOBIE ABOUT MY STATE?! thank you for bringing this to my attention!

[@SirPlocks]

I don't care how many times you have to upload I will keep watching! KZbin cannot stop me from enjoying ur content

[@bigsad4372]

im so happy the tongue eating ocean critter is providing some horror inspo, its such a scary real life creature

[@ericallan920]

My big issue is that these fully aquatic animals were able to survive and move on land without any detriment with out access to or limited access to water

[@Hearty1100]

Same

[@JJRodriguez]

It's called 'fair use,' KZbin! It's high time you know the meaning of the term.

[@giftedfox4748]

That is true but KZbin doesn't really control that part of the system very well because of how costly it is. So it is just cheaper to validate the claim and move on than having to deal with the slow review. Remember, KZbin gets thousands of videos uploaded every few minutes with big companies claiming 1/5th of those videos. KZbin is responsible and not the person uploading the video since it is their platform. It sucks, but I agree they need to find a better system than this endless void.

[@Chadmiral]

@@giftedfox4748 Yeah

[@D4rkMatter1975]

Love this movie, seriously i really enjoyed it immensley. I have watched it about 3 times total, planning on watching it again over the weekend. It has many truly horrifying and creepy scenes, body Horror is one of my Favourite genres.

[@pughero5]

yeeeeeet. ill watch no matter how many times its uploaded. its pretty informative and entertaining. :P

[@TopsyTriceratops]

Good grief these people need to chill. Like, I'm super mad. Either way, I'm still glad you covered this movie, even if it is rather a mess for copyright and watching it.

[@SirrisDarkmoon]

Love watching the videos when my complex regional pain syndrome and fibro is kicking my ass, bit gutted for you that a lot of your videos keep getting strikes but will keep rewatching for 2 reasons. 1. GOTTA GET THOSE NUMBER BACK UP and 2. My brain fog makes me fuzzy on details so its like watching a new video sometimes XD

[@howdy4504]

Native Marylander here! Anyone with any sense around here does not swim in the Chesapeake Bay, especially up north. Aberdeen testing grounds (military explosion stuff) is on the coast and has absolutely polluted the water. They also won't say what exactly is in the water, because that means they'd have to clean it up, and that would cost millions, if not billions of dollars. So we really don't know what's in the bay, just that it's probably not good for you. But hey, at least we're not New Jersey :)

[@levieves4819]

Gotta love Roanokes terrifying horror movie explanations 😩👌 especially with parasites

[@Blankoschaeck]

Studies have shown that yelling "fire" doesnt work. What works: Speaking to specific persons like "Hey, you in the blue shirt, call an ambulance"

[@thesaintofcats5651]

The first time i watched this I was jumping at every scene with the isopods.

[@Ransom6242]

I remember feeling so bad for the little girl who got got by the parasites toward the end of the movie.

[@dilian245]

The water doesn't need to be evaporated to be desalinated. It's done with reverse osmosis which uses much less energy then just boiling the water.

[@trannhan2383]

5:45 "Don't yel help, yell Fire" 💀

[@KOSMOS1701A]

your choice of music fit this video perfectly, and the funny little titles for the timestamps.

[@AceBot227]

Thank you for the chicken hormone thing. I am clipping it to show my wife next time we grocery shop. I've been spending $10 extra for the package that says no hormones...

[@Tanstaafl_74]

It's so bizarre how 99% of horror movies don't make me twitch, but the science breakdown of real life makes my stomach churn.

[@scottshort8540]

Take a shot every time he says “the bay.” You’d probably need like four new livers

Love your videos! I love watching them when I fall asleep because they’re so interesting. Keep up the great work!

The Bay is my favorite movie that makes me paranoid. I was like uber hesitant to drink water from anywhere, thinking I’d get infected how these people did and die a gruesome ass death. I live in Georgia lmao

[@Animotion3D]

The Beach House did the same with me. I legit didn't drink water for 4 days straight .

[@bard8903]

oh man i remember this movie, honestly it' was the first found footage that disturbed me

[@MegaPlayerXxX]

And here is also why tap water requirements are so F-ing insanely high in this country. XD I mean we're talking "if you pee a mile away from the drinkable water reservoir you're getting arrested and pay huge fine" kind of high.
