Chef 100% told Tyler 'You will never be part of the Menu', since Tyler knew they will all die and he wanted to die with them. So Chef telling him he won't be killed was ironically the thing that leads him to kill himself.

Everyone always assumes that she tricked him, but I think that was a moment of solidarity and mutual understanding between two service workers. The other snobbish customers either ignored or overlooked the Chef's service and food, while some read too much into it and were simply being too critical. Margot, during the Chef's final moments, asked for a service in a form of a meager burger, something simple, but clearly something that meant a lot to the Chef's journey of getting to where he is now, she then showed genuine appreciation for the burger, and kindly asked for a to go box and even paid her dues. This then re-affirmed what he initially thought of her; that she was in fact different than the others and that she understood what it was like to work in this sort of industry and let her go with a smile on his face.

Also, a burger is a common meal you get on the way home from a 12 hour shift. It’s designed to feed and sustain. Expensive meals tend to be empty status symbols

It's meant for 1 purpose and 1 purpose alone... not to be glorified and deified as some work of art but to be eaten because you are hungry. In a sense everyone in that restaurant betrayed the meaning and reason for food... the chef grew disillusioned by having to prep food for people who are never satisfied and who have forgotten the reason why we eat (the bread menu is an example of that). All SHE did was do the very thing the chef started on this road for... she ordered a burger for the food, not the show or the glorification.. she was "hungry" and wanted some food to go whilst going to the next destination... I don't think the chef was only smiling and let her go because she allowed him to connect back to happier time... she understood the reason for food in the first place... in a sense; she "tasted" the simplicity but goal food can have and in a sense was the ONLY one who appreciated his craft.

[@samlaven582]

I think its important to point out that chef's bedroom is not only an industrial kitchen with some tables and chairs, but an EXACT replica of the Hawthorne's dining room. While the setup itself shows just how much his personal life is dwarfed by his professional life, this detail makes clear that even when he's at home and sleeping, he is still utterly consumed by that space.

[@Randomeline]

i don't know if this was said anywhere, but tantalus, as shown in one of the newspaper clippings w chef, was a greek story about a man who was supposed to host the gods on their travels. he tried to feed them his son (instead of just coming up with some delicious normal meal) and the gods punished him by throwing him into a pool of water with a fruit branch above his head. if he tried to drink the water, the water would recede and he couldn't quench his thirst. if he tried to eat the fruit, the fruit tree would rise so he couldn't reach it. just another jab in the story & chefs background.

Definitely remember a Greek story like that but didn't know it was tantalus and didn't think of that while watching this movie 😅 But for me felt it was lot similar to Midas , who had the golden touch and he was forever cursed to turn anything into gold which kinda resonates with the head chef , he had the talent and knowledge and passion to make a custom palette for the anyone but eventually wore him out and he became bitter. Midas was similar who enjoyed his gift of golden touch but eventually came to see the folly of it when he turned his daughter to gold I believe and nearly passed away from starvation and dehydration cause he couldn't eat/drink anything as long as anything touched his skin would turn into gold.

[@sarahhales1505]

Fun Facts: 1. The slap to Tyler was not part of the script. Anna-Taylor threw it in to represent Margo’s anger at what Tyler has done. 2. The Movie Star was originally cast with Daniel Radcliffe. He was going to play himself and Jillian was going to mock him for the movie Victor Frankenstein.

[@stephaniewayman6850]

After all that happened in the movie his gradual smile while cooking a simple burger actually made me feel extremely happy. Even though it is a movie and they are actors, seeing the visual of a man who’s ruined his life for his craft have one last genuine smile was beautiful.

I would love to see a prequel as to how Julian recruited a death cult of chefs.

[@lostfilmkid221b]

I'd watch that w more interest than this

[@bluemuyunda4145]

we see that he is a vibrant, dynamic speaker. His ending monologue about The Purifying Flame lures you in, and has heart. A key way cult leaders recruit their following is by making appeals to emotions, securing trust, then manipulating their demographics to do absurd things. Since Julian refers to his workers as "the givers" and explicitly uses us vs. them mentalities to frame social group dynamics, it's clear that the other service workers are likely lower-class, disenfranchised, alienated young people who don't have economic opportunities like the chance to go to Brown with no student loans. We see sous-chef Jeremy is another young person who was once passionate and filled with joy, but then got beaten down by the brutal, unsympathetic industry, , and I think it's fair to say the other chefs also feel the same way. In an industry that treats it's chefs like they're disposable, I'm sure it feels nice to have a community/cult of people who are like you. I think Chef Julian preyed on this sense of dissatisfaction, hopelessness, and powerlessness, and pessimism present in the young, economically disenfranchised chefs, and that depressing landscape made it easy to convince them theat they should give their lives to his masterpiece; they might not be able to achieve great careers, but they can atleast die getting revenge on the rich people who made their ambitious careers impossible.

[@justaduck3615]

And it was the one thing that made the chef smile, since it was such a simple meal from his simpler times, before the impossible task of impressing people broke him down. Even the to go box was a nice gesture since likely at a real fancy restaurant, the rich would probably have left the plate there unfinished or felt it was awful after finishing it. But she showed she liked it enough that she wanted to take it with her and eat more of it, which for a chef hearing that someone wants more of your cooking is a high compliment.

He says "what are you hungry for?", "we have everything", because his entire life is built around satisfying pretentious customers. And then the relief and gentle smile on Julian's face when Erin asks for a regular cheeseburger, when he realises she's genuinely hungry because she came here to eat good food, not to stick up her nose. It's such a beautiful moment between this duo. Also Ralph's charisma and subtle emotions in these scenes literally make the entire movie ten times better.

I think the takeaway from this movie is to never lose the love you have for your passion. The chef lost his love for his craft thanks to everyone, he gained his dream but lost his love. The pressure was too much it faded. And it’s meant to show us how we can lose the passion and love for the things we used to do.

@@Wodensdsy You aren't "making" yeast, yeasts are living one-celled organisms that are basically all over the environment. If you make sourdough you are just capturing wild yeast from the environment (they are even in the air) and giving them carbohydrates to eat so they'll multiply and you'll have enough to make bread. But lots of wild yeasts live naturally on fruits so you can get an especially rich source of yeast from apples, grapes, etc., even the twigs of certain trees. Of course those are the same yeasts that traditionally made wine and hard cider, just crushing up the fruit and letting the natural yeasts on the fruit eat the sugar and digest it into alcohol. But nowadays yeasts are industrially produced to be uniform and that's how most bread and wine are made, with mass-produced yeast that's added in.

My friends and I also noticed that the main person at the seven tables each represented one of the seven deadly sins and their partner (with the exception of the trio) lack that sin. For example, Tyler was a glutton for high end food, even stealing Margot's portions, while Margot wants to just eat the food she needs without gorging on fine dinning. The food critic is extremely prideful, always finding something to nitpick and prove she knows better while her partner lacks any kind of pride, just going along with whatever she says.

It could also be a twist on the Last Supper where Jesus ate with his 12 apostles and announced that one of them had betrayed him, except all but one betrayed him. This would fit into Chef's egotism. You also have Tyler hanging himself the same way Judas did.

Yeah it's not perfect, but I thought it was a solid attempt by Edgar Wright to make a serious horror movie inspired by giallo horror. If anything I would use The New Mutants as another example of a bad film she's in. Primarily because the director wanted to make a full blown horror only for Fox to make him tone it down to be more like a Young adult film with the results being very disappointing.

[@jesustyronechrist2330]

This movie is a great example how you can make a simple story super engaging by using some fundamental storytelling tools. The most obvious one is witholding context, which the movie shares twice: First about who Margot really is and second about Tyler. Throughout the whole movie you are kept wondering "why are they acting like that towards each other" and even after the first context dump, you probably still won't figure out the second. Another classic one is "safety yoyoing" which the movie does constantly most notably the "all the men can attempt to escape", Margot getting the barrel and the coast guard. This keeps up the tension by making you wonder if someone is gonna escape or die.

[@Chmima]

I don’t know if this has been said elsewhere but I think she was allowed to leave as a “thank you” from Chef for giving him one last truly happy moment before dying by allowing him to make a simple cheeseburger, connecting him to the last time he was happy. Nostalgia can be so powerful. Also, I was waiting for the twist to be the cheeseburger was made from human meat. Lol

I honestly loved all the subtleties in the acting. Jeremy tried so hard to be a great chef, but burned himself out, and he and Chef agreed that he would not be completing the menu that night. The genuine affection for one another that Katherine and Chef had developed for one another as friends, and that he was genuinely apologetic for his behavior, the stab in the thigh was mostly just symbolic of the forgiveness. I just absolutely loved it, and the joy that came across as well as his sadness in knowing he would be unable to ever recreate that feeling again. Master class.

I wanted to see this because I thought it was going to be like the film "Broil" where the patriarch is a demon and a whole bunch of crazy things go on?

[@jonhsonnikki]

I'm in awe at the depth of this film. For me, what stuck out most was the Chef's obsession with perfection. I am a writer/poet who strive for perfection in my art. I'm definitely not on his type of level, but the scene where he was badgering Margo about what she didn't enjoy about the food - I felt that deeply. When I read my poetry to family members, I receive very minimal reactions and feedback and it kills me. I feel like a failure, like I failed to effectively articulate myself well enough to have another person engage with it. It just feels personal when people don't like your art or give you bad feedback - which the logic in your brain tells you to get over but your feelings are nevertheless affected. I'm genuinely moved by his character because I feel seen as a creative.

[@mr.mammuthusafricanavus8299]

But when you put so much of yourself into something, and dare to reveal it to someone else, and all they have for you in response is “Yeah, it’s good.” Like… it feels as though that’s all they think about you as well, even if that’s not the case.

My personal theory on a detail - Hawthorn, the name of the restaurant, is what the "crown of thorns" that Jesus wore was made of. The thorny aesthetic is also suggested by all the driftwood on the shore outside, and it suggests both the massive savior/cult of personality complex that Slowik has and also that he views the restaurant as a burden that he has to bear. The logo for the restaurant is at first an orderly "H" that is crossed with a line that ends in an incoherent, wandering, thorn-like squiggle, another symbol of Slowik's decline that probably started on setting up the restaurant that he was pressured into.

And I would say a movie closer to the thriller category is Speed starting Keanu Reeves. This is much more horror adjacent than that. As well as many movies that have came out recently. You must not be talking to true horror fans. And ones saying it's a golden age of horror could very well be talking about 2015-whenever. But many are probably talking about quantity though since there are hella horror movies coming out. All aren't good, but horror, like comic book movies and animes, are becoming much more mainstream these days.

[@robinbailey-leonard3016]

It's interesting to me how it seems like Margo gave Chef a last moment of happiness before his inevitable death, like a moment of mercy.

[@candyqueenify]

Ohh good point!

[@yourintrusivethoughts]

Imagine Maggo is actually Julian’s lost daughter, since she only mentioned her mother and maybe she lived at a trailer park because Julian left while she was really young. Also since Julian has a picture frame of a mysterious woman/ wife and his child

[@axstorm2191]

i adore this theory.

Dude I love this head cannon

[@rabidfirefox8914]

@@Alfasauses.2nd.Account You mean the only Girl who lived and whom the Chef seemed to actually adore. Also, doesn't it seem suspicious that out of all the escorts the fake foodie could have gotten, he got the escort that just happens to be at just the right age to be the Chef's daughter. Everything was well planned, I'd like to think that The Chef actually knew who Maggo was and this entire thing was just a test for her to not follow his own footsteps (as well as kill all those assholes)

[@gavinhuttpacificrim]

And she really looks a lot like the woman

This was the twist my partner and I thought it would turn out to be! Glad we weren’t the only ones 😂

[@lavarball9186]

I gotta say I usually put a lot of videos like this on as background noise but your videos are so good I just end up watching them instead of doing what I had planned

[@tempbauer2131]

Honestly, when watching a group of chefs & servers plate and deliver in a choreographed way is BEAUTIFUL! Just as interesting as watching a ballet

[@epicmatt9876]

The only thing that confused me was why was Tyler taking pictures when he knew what was going to happen at the end? 🤔

[@neonicon8500]

Maybe he was somehow being able to post them then and there? Good question. I was going to say since he was so entitled he figured he wasn't going to die, but he does seem like he was fully expecting to die, but he also didn't run with all the other men. I dunno. Maybe for when someone eventually found their bodies, he was hoping the pictures would get leaked or something and they'd say who they were from. Someone had a good theory about what the chef whispered in his ear. They said the chef probably told him he won't be a part of the menu, and since he wanted to so badly he even made another person come to die with him, that caused him to go and kill himself.

[@iennogananaha]

A good theory, is that because he seemed to believe he was better than everyone in the room, he was warned, he knew about the outcome, so he thought the rules didn't apply to him. He thought he would be allowed to do as he pleases, as he was special

[@nieznajomy4398]

Basically he is a poser and idiot... he says he truly loves food but can't cook at all.

[@bookreader416]

I thought of it as that was how he consumed food, by turning it into everlasting art rather than just appreciating it in that moment. And even though he knew he would die, the photos would be proof that he was a part of this elite experience.

[@stafonvoncamron]

He was a nut.

[@TheSharkbite1]

Foundflix you should do a everything explained for the entire Nightmare on Elm Street saga. That would be amazing!

[@RyonMugen]

you mean after all these years, he's NEVER done that? Whhaaattttt?!

[@bleakautomaton4808]

I think, unless a related movie comes out, he may not cover some older titles. I could be wrong of course.

[@flower3611]

I tried watching them all but I stopped bc I got lost 😭

[@justagamethrower]

​@@flower3611 how do you get lost in a pretty straight forward release of movies

[@tipsy_tulips2374]

I just want 2 let you know I’ve been watching your videos since I was 15/16 I just turned 21 last week and your videos and voice bring me comfort , I love you and your channel thank you for being here when nobody else was ❤

[@Zanzibar_Dallax]

This is honestly one of my favorite movies of all time now! I'm a sous chef by profession, so I understand the antagonist perspective*VERY WELL* 😅 This movie is masterfully crafted & the unexpected "twist" at the end almost brings tears to my eyes lol. This is just a well-written film. The actors seem very real for who they are supposed to portray. Ughhh, I can't give this movie more thumbs up!!

[@fusiongod5004]

I admit this is the first time I've actually watched a movie BEFORE seeing the ending explained. And I love it

[@PONR2006]

This movie was way better than I thought it would be. It’s not the pretentious dribble it might look like, the characters react in real and interesting ways and the reveal that Tyler was aware of everything from the beginning really propels Margot’s story to new heights and kinda changes the pacing.

[@paleobc65]

if anything it makes fun of the pretentious

[@tristanhood2495]

This was so long, BUT absolutely incredible! Thank you.

[@violinflowerbot3677]

Dude I freaking LOVED this movie! It was so perfect. Honestly blew my mind the first time, but it made my heart so happy. My favorite part is how realistic/grounded the whole thing is. No crazy editing, no overacting, none of that. It's very refreshing to see such a grounded, human antagonist in a horror movie. The touch of Margot/Erin giving him one last moment of happiness before dying was very beautiful. Also I just love Anya Taylor-Joy so much lmao.
