Imagine being so terrified of something that you are willing to spend the rest of your life in prison to get away from it, only for someone to bring it right back in front of you after you narrowly managed to "escape" it the first time. That man was terrified beyond belief, he just got 'lucky' that it wasn't Rose's time yet.
Especially when you realize that you are all alone with the "thing" that requires exactly one person to witness the suicide directly, and she said she already was 4 days in.
Actually they recently found out he was innocent and pretty much forced him out of jail. He tried to get back in but he was killed before he could get arrested again. I think his grave is in Michigan. Scary stuff man.
This movie is exactly what mental health issue can be like, it also shows how people think you’re insane but to you it can be as real as anyone else’s situation
Omg bro me too. Tears were literally falling out my eyes. How do these guys act so terrifyingly good is beyond me. You truly feel the fear this man is feeling through a screen 😂
“YOU have it?! It’s YOU?!” A super-creepy new classic, with first-rate acting…I loved Sosie Bacon, and who DIDN’T believe this guy was scared spitless?
Although he did commit a murder, I can’t help but feel bad for the guy. He wasn’t a bad person, he was just put under incredible pressure and went off the rails. He literally COULD NOT handle being tormented by that entity, he just had to get away from it by any means.
He probably did it halfway through his week, since it didn’t have enough control to stop him from doing it, but since we see how insane that thing drives you, it makes sense.
His reaction really drove it home on how terrifying the situation is. Being so terrified of having anyone or anything associated with it possibly coming back to him.
Him freaking out like that is pretty understandable considering that he essentially chose to be remembered as a murderer and be incarcerated to ensure his survival. It would have all been for nothing if Rose committed suicide in that moment instead of later on with Joel as the witness.
Once he hears on the news about what happened, he'll know that not only everyone at the concert is now going to be targeted by the Entity, but even if anyone was watching the live stream since people had their phones out. With this, Robert will be terrified that anyone who is a host will come to the prison. Therefore, he may commit suicide so the entity doesn't claim his soul.

@@ryanstauffer119 I think you have to see it in person to catch it because Joel didn't catch it when he watched the police surveillance in smile 1. Still tens of thousands of ppl will have gotten it from Skye tho.
I think his screams are so good because they almost seem childlike. Like as we age we depict fear in such a different way but his was like true TERROR!! It was the kind of scream we'd let out as a child being left alone in a dark room at night. It was just unfiltered terror to the point that he didnt care how he looked or sound, he just wanted that lady GONE
I didn’t even think that you COULD become cursed again. You spend a couple of days being tormented by a demon, then you sacrifice your freedom to escape it just for someone to almost bring it back to you. I’d be screaming for her to get away from me too.
This is such a powerful instance and such tremendous acting from a small role. It’s almost as if he’s been relieved of a mental illness at all costs and you hear the fear peaking in his voice when he realizes he could relive that nightmare in a split second. Those screams are chilling.
The actor who played the prisoner in this scene is Rob Morgan, The New York Times recently included him in their list of the 25 greatest actors in the world today.
@@grantu9 She was going through it this whole movie when this scene came up I was terrified but was laughing cause I was like she can't ever catch a break always ends up getting kicked out😂😂

@@Pumpkin525Yeah but you gotta remember, at the time when COVID was fairly new everyone was extremely terrified of it as there wasn't much info on how deadly it was yet
I don't think they would play a concert on TV in prison. But I do think he would still hear about it on the news. He would become horrified about how hundreds of people at the concert are now being targeted by the Entity and will be terrified that any of them will come to the prison. But if anyone was live streaming during the concert, that will be even worse. I believe that Robert might commit suicide so the Entity doesn't come back to him and take his soul.
After everything he been through someone killing themselve on tv wouldn't traumatize him so it wouldn't work, and it's funny thinking they would play a pop concert in jail 😂😂
Just imagine Robert's reaction upon finding out how Skye Riley died at her concert and the whole audience witnessed it, realizing the curse is going to be passed down to everyone. And not just people at the concert, but even people who witnessed it on a live stream since people at the concert had their phones out. That will make it spread more. Therefore, Robert will worry that anyone who the Entity is targeting will come to the prison eventually. And with that, Robert might commit suicide all alone in his cell to ensure that the Entity doesn't claim his soul.
@@Peacemaker2024-A9T Well, it would be similar to that Universal film Truth or Dare back in 2018 in which it ended with Olivia posting a video to the whole world asking them "Truth or Dare" and every single person who watched it had the demon targeting them since know all of those people have become new players of the game. So who knows if it would be similar here. I guess we'll just have to wait for another film to find out.
The potential is so high with this. I disliked how big they went with 2, but if it was a ploy to reclaim the only soul that ever escaped, it’d be a genius. Especially since his reaction showed his fear was just probably gourmet level food for the entity.
Going off of the curse rules, this man most likely went through 6 days of constant mental toture, only to have to kill someone, and spending life in prison. Whats worse is he knows that he condemned someone else to the same fate, and that person probably lacking his knowledge is most likely dead. No wonder he reacted like this😢
Smile Entity: _So this is what became of you, huh old friend? Trapped behind bars until you rot, surrounded by other monsters. You may still be breathing, but you and I both know you’ve been long dead in all the ways that matter. _*_I could’ve been your salvation_* (Wrote this on a whim, sorry if anyone died of cringe)
@@JJJJ-he8bz Some people are sociopaths from brain dmg or a very early physical injury. It’s not always a traumatic experience that triggers sociopathic behaviors. Assuming that the demon cant read minds of people they arent possessing, a sociopath’s complete lack of empathy would help kill it. At best, it would be a venom duo comedy, at worst, the demon just dies with them
Well, I think the Entity would still find some way to scare a psychopath. Even if it's not fear, the Entity will do something to make them uncomfortable. Here's an example. In Stephen King's story "IT", there was the character Patrick Hockstetter who was a true psychopath. When Pennywise appeared to Patrick, Its face was melting and hardening like wax as if It was having trouble deciding what form to take to scare Patrick. But despite difficulty, Pennywise knew one thing that would make Patrick afraid. It created an illusion of leaches all over his body sucking his blood. Even having one in his mouth sucking on his tongue and one sucking his eyeball. Pennywise did this because when Patrick was a boy, he went swimming in a lake with his parents one time and there were leeches all over him, leaving him traumatized. As Pennywise was about to kill Patrick, Patrick was truly horrified because he believed that he was the only real living person and that everyone else were just figments of his imagination. That when Patrick dies, all of life will end too. This is known as solipsism disorder. So if the smile entity encounters a psychopath who claims they cannot be scared, the entity will do whatever it can to frighten the person.
@ I mean, it’s one thing to feed off trauma, it’s another to recreate it entirely. Assuming that the condition of passing it on in the first place is that initial traumatic suicide/murder, a sociopath with no empathy or sympathy for another will not feel anything for said person. Maybe objectively, that person will go “meh it kinda sucks” but otherwise, it’s not really going to effect them. Psychopaths are also different than sociopaths btw. Psychopaths do feel trauma and sympathy(though empathy is questionable in most cases), they just tend to be impulsive, narcissistic, and manipulative. Even if they only care for themselves, they still hold a great foundation for deep insecurity and potential trauma. Sociopaths are simply born without the feelings of compassion and empathy. They may still lead fulfilling lives where rhey learn to care but the physical emotion of empathy is not present which is why even if they certainly feel an emotional connection to people they deem friends, it’s very very difficult to feel anything for them even if they die.
@@ryanstauffer119That effect only happens when the curse is passed upon a person and the demon's only way of passing it is by traumatizing someone by a currently cursed person's suicide. The demon can't traumatize a person in any other way unless the curse is passed upon him/if the person watching is traumatized by the suicide. Sociopaths have a high chance of being immune as the sight of a person commiting suicide will not affect them and the most reaction they might have is probably to get confused as to why someone is randomly taking their lives in front of them 🤷🏻♀️
This actually be the most genuine terror I’ve ever seen be conveyed in a role. Nothing but pure, unrestrained, desperate fear brought forth by Rob Morgan here - and it’s as disturbing as it is brilliant.
The likelihood of it being demonic in the traditional sense is basically zero. Demons are the antagonistic forces of various religions, this thing doesn't fit that.
Yep. Says it all. He did something evil to escape that Entity and it's back in front of him and the woman with it lied to him to gain access to him just like she lied to that grieving widowed wife. His demeanor says even if he's free of that entity, he'll never be free of that traumatic event.
That was part of the point of this movie. The demon is sexual and about false sexual liaisons like with a fiancé who couldn't' care less about you or people smiling when they want to kill you. Joel did care, but he ended up dying with her to save her. That really bothered me, but I guess his love wasn't strong enough, more like rekindling an old attraction.
I was disappointed this part of the film was never explored further...ie his life before he was "cursed"...and did he randomly choose his victim or did he select her deliberately because he felt she somehow "deserved" it??? I gotta say if I had to choose suicide and passing it on as a curse to others, murder then passing on the curse to others, or just regular suicide with no 4th option I'd just hideaway somewhere and if I was American I'd be fortunate and just bring a gun with me to end it all as quickly painlessly& quietly on my own as possible (I think this film was an analysis metaphor of ptsd and the resulting side-mental illnesses that inevitably come along with it or after it) Edit Or like how abuse victims or SO/SA victims often go on to be abusers/perpetrators themselves....
The problem with this is the creature would toy with your mind and make you perceive things that you aren’t actually doing. For instance the scene when she tries to kill the mentally ill man from earlier in the movie. What she perceived was her killing him and succeeding only to wake up still in her car in the parking lot to the hospital. You would think you have a gun in your hand and go to shoot yourself only to wake up still in bed or something, it wouldn’t allow you to die that way.
I would think he tried to fight it as long as possible but reached a breaking point and did it at random. Considering his reaction I wouldn’t be surprised if he had held out until he saw its true form.
After watching both movies I understand why he was so adamant for her to leave and for "The patient" to make it count. The entity is ever creative with its torment
@@Kenny-ep2nf what the heck are you talking about, it earned over 130 million on a 28 million budget and being the 3rd highest grossing horror movie for the year worldwide behind Alien Romulus and the new Quiet Place which are much larger IPs. That's nowhere near a flop.
This movie is as good as it is because everyone is giving a 110% performance, the affect would be significantly weaker if the actors just phoned it in. But nope, the victims showing their fear, the people portraying the entity, giving that award winning smile, they earned their paycheck.
Who is the actor for the prisoner cuz as a black man I have come to understand that most of my people that come from harsh environments become hardened emotionally so I haven’t really seen that expression of fear on a black man before and it honestly scared me more than a lot of things in general
I literally LMFAO at this scene because i could only imagine how terrified 'ol boy was after Rose hinted him that she has the curse and the fact she can pass it back to him 🤣
I wonder if a true psychopath could end the cycle. You try to pass it on but he feels no shock or terror from it. Imagine somehow making that the protagonist of the movie...
Well, I think the Entity would still find some way to scare a psychopath. Even if it's not fear, the Entity will do something to make them uncomfortable. Here's an example. In Stephen King's story "IT", there was the character Patrick Hockstetter who was a true psychopath.

So if the smile entity encounters a psychopath who claims they cannot be scared, the entity will do whatever it can to frighten the person.
Maybe someone like the Joker. There's a comic where he teams up with Scarecrow, but Scarecrow ends up getting fed up with Joker's attitude and exposes him to his Fear Toxin, but the toxin doesn't seem to affect Joker as he only mocks at Scarecrow, asking if he has cherry.
@@rahul-rz5ujthe entity would manipulate the psychopath to kill someone else in front of a witness for fun. So the entity can pass to the traumatised witness. A true psychopath would probably do it for the thrill.
imagine if Smile 2, the next protagonist gets the smile demon. Finds a work around like he/she commits to killing themselves far from civilization where no one can see him so the demon can't transfer to a witness.... Or so they thought when the end credits scene has this same guy in prison and the smile demon comes back to him as the last guy who had the curse and was still alive.
@@leondreamcastyep basically after watching smile 2. Also funny because she responded to a man from an “unknown” number to meet up and actually think she could genuinely get rid of it as well.
If you think about it, no two victims of the thing ever met so the only chance both of them might have had would have been if they had actually stuck together and tried to fight the thing at once

@@ryanstauffer119That effect only happens when the curse is passed upon a person and the demon's only way of passing it is by traumatizing someone by a currently cursed person's suicide. The demon can't traumatize a person in any other way unless the curse is passed upon him/if the person watching is traumatized by the suicide. Sociopaths have a high chance of being immune as the sight of a person commiting suicide will not affect them and the most reaction they might have is probably to get confused as to why someone is randomly taking their lives in front of them 🤷🏻♀️
2:16
Joker: I have a fish, do you want it? 🐟
2:25 top tier acting
This actually be the most genuine terror I’ve ever seen be conveyed in a role. Nothing but pure, unrestrained, desperate fear brought forth by Rob Morgan here - and it’s as disturbing as it is brilliant.
The acting from the guy was absolutely phenomenal.
Man.. the moment of scilences in this movie..
"Unless she kills some one."
.. you must become the living embodiment of what that is..
This film is much better then the 2nd one
Agreed
Facts
Props to the actors here! Awesome scene.
God damn that scene was effective
The ultimate question. What is it? Demonic, lovecraftian, extraterrestrial, a monster. Their really is no way to define it except for smile I suppose.
It’s most likely demonic
a demon that has no form because its effective to have no form because you can shapeshift to anyone or be any form like IT
The likelihood of it being demonic in the traditional sense is basically zero. Demons are the antagonistic forces of various religions, this thing doesn't fit that.
@myremedy7691 what would you say it is?
it's trauma. . metaphorically and literally
Yep. Says it all. He did something evil to escape that Entity and it's back in front of him and the woman with it lied to him to gain access to him just like she lied to that grieving widowed wife. His demeanor says even if he's free of that entity, he'll never be free of that traumatic event.
If there's a sequel he better be in it.
@LNRTUBE79it comes out in September or October. I forgot the exact date
@@IamonthepedestalOctober. Trailer just came out.
Hell Naw…he ain’t taking anything back from no one
Maybe in the 3rd movie
Um yeah about that... The flops made a crappy sequel.
Great acting from him
That’s pretty much how I reacted back during the covid outbreak when someone was telling me that the were infected…
It's weird. I think of long covid and how it caused these pangs of terror in me from time to time. There is kind of a covid link in this movie.
2:21 when my kidney stones come back
Drink more water. Way more.
..... joel was a good man to rose unlike her husband.
a train
A train wtf are you talking bout
That was part of the point of this movie. The demon is sexual and about false sexual liaisons like with a fiancé who couldn't' care less about you or people smiling when they want to kill you. Joel did care, but he ended up dying with her to save her. That really bothered me, but I guess his love wasn't strong enough, more like rekindling an old attraction.
@@TeaCoffee-mc3jt the actor of the husband also plays as a character named a train
@@comradejuxfrom the boys.
I was disappointed this part of the film was never explored further...ie his life before he was "cursed"...and did he randomly choose his victim or did he select her deliberately because he felt she somehow "deserved" it???
I gotta say if I had to choose suicide and passing it on as a curse to others, murder then passing on the curse to others, or just regular suicide with no 4th option I'd just hideaway somewhere and if I was American I'd be fortunate and just bring a gun with me to end it all as quickly painlessly& quietly on my own as possible (I think this film was an analysis metaphor of ptsd and the resulting side-mental illnesses that inevitably come along with it or after it)
Edit Or like how abuse victims or SO/SA victims often go on to be abusers/perpetrators themselves....
The problem with this is the creature would toy with your mind and make you perceive things that you aren’t actually doing. For instance the scene when she tries to kill the mentally ill man from earlier in the movie. What she perceived was her killing him and succeeding only to wake up still in her car in the parking lot to the hospital. You would think you have a gun in your hand and go to shoot yourself only to wake up still in bed or something, it wouldn’t allow you to die that way.
@@duckman9467 mental illness analogous
More intelligent than the average slasher horror
@@curiositypiqued6573 you what now?
I would think he tried to fight it as long as possible but reached a breaking point and did it at random.
Considering his reaction I wouldn’t be surprised if he had held out until he saw its true form.
His acting is so good
After watching both movies I understand why he was so adamant for her to leave and for "The patient" to make it count. The entity is ever creative with its torment
They desperately need to revisit this storyline, the potential is insane ( more so than whatever bullshit was the ending of 2)
Except, part 2 was a flop
@@Kenny-ep2nf what the heck are you talking about, it earned over 130 million on a 28 million budget and being the 3rd highest grossing horror movie for the year worldwide behind Alien Romulus and the new Quiet Place which are much larger IPs. That's nowhere near a flop.
Is it just me or Robert thinks that rose has brought an entity with her
she did
Honestly, very fair reaction
This was my fave scene, brilliant acting
Turk Barrett ain't gonna let something like this get him down. Nothing can defeat the amazing world renowned Turk Barrett, Wundercriminal!
2:20 I'm not familiar with this mans work. But he needs some rolls in stuff I watch. He brought out of sheer emotion.
Best scene in the movie. Rob Morgan stole the show here.
I get literal CHILLS when he begins to react..... 😩 Just a brilliant performance!!!
Same this scene in the Cinema his reacting made my eyes water up and get chills.
This movie is as good as it is because everyone is giving a 110% performance, the affect would be significantly weaker if the actors just phoned it in. But nope, the victims showing their fear, the people portraying the entity, giving that award winning smile, they earned their paycheck.
This scene has a lot more weight after watching Smile 2.
The next movie should be a prequel about one of the previous hosts.
So you want the same movie to be made three times
@ wtf are you talking about?
She was so good in this film.
Such great acting
Who is the actor for the prisoner cuz as a black man I have come to understand that most of my people that come from harsh environments become hardened emotionally so I haven’t really seen that expression of fear on a black man before and it honestly scared me more than a lot of things in general
Rob Morgan
Were you born yesterday?
I feel so bad for the guy 😔
I literally LMFAO at this scene because i could only imagine how terrified 'ol boy was after Rose hinted him that she has the curse and the fact she can pass it back to him 🤣
It's a suicide demon that makes you see very horrific things before it kills you anyone would be scared
😂😂😂😂
Why did she come? That’s super obvious why she came.
How would he know? Multiple people probably came through there abd asked questions. Probably thought it was just another nosey reporter or doctor
Well, she did put his life in danger to save her's after all. That was selfish.
@@MrHyde-ku5qj She was practically done being nice to people
@@MrHyde-ku5qj If you are scared and desperate finding a way to get rid of that curse, would you call yourself selfish? I wouldn't.
I wonder if a true psychopath could end the cycle. You try to pass it on but he feels no shock or terror from it.
Imagine somehow making that the protagonist of the movie...
Well, I think the Entity would still find some way to scare a psychopath. Even if it's not fear, the Entity will do something to make them uncomfortable.
Here's an example. In Stephen King's story "IT", there was the character Patrick Hockstetter who was a true psychopath. When Pennywise appeared to Patrick, Its face was melting and hardening like wax as if It was having trouble deciding what form to take to scare Patrick. But despite difficulty, Pennywise knew one thing that would make Patrick afraid. It created an illusion of leaches all over his body sucking his blood. Even having one in his mouth sucking on his tongue and one sucking his eyeball. Pennywise did this because when Patrick was a boy, he went swimming in a lake with his parents one time and there were leeches all over him, leaving him traumatized. As Pennywise was about to kill Patrick, Patrick was truly horrified because he believed that he was the only real living person and that everyone else were just figments of his imagination. That when Patrick dies, all of life will end too. This is known as solipsism disorder.
So if the smile entity encounters a psychopath who claims they cannot be scared, the entity will do whatever it can to frighten the person.
Maybe someone like the Joker. There's a comic where he teams up with Scarecrow, but Scarecrow ends up getting fed up with Joker's attitude and exposes him to his Fear Toxin, but the toxin doesn't seem to affect Joker as he only mocks at Scarecrow, asking if he has cherry.
Imagine the victim laughing back at the entity with an insane intent to kill with no fear. Lol
A true psychopath will traumatize the entity
@@ryanstauffer119solipsism is not a disorder, it's a metaphysical/ theologian philosophical idea.
@@rahul-rz5ujthe entity would manipulate the psychopath to kill someone else in front of a witness for fun. So the entity can pass to the traumatised witness. A true psychopath would probably do it for the thrill.
He's remembering all the things Smile made him see.
The film stands with no ground but that it is an outstandinly horrifying film.
To me he's not telling her to get away from him hes sayings it to something else....
Actually he was so afraid to witness Rose being possessed that moment and killing herself allowing the demon targeting him again. Cannot blame him
2:22, when you see your crazy ex again.
imagine if Smile 2, the next protagonist gets the smile demon. Finds a work around like he/she commits to killing themselves far from civilization where no one can see him so the demon can't transfer to a witness.... Or so they thought
when the end credits scene has this same guy in prison and the smile demon comes back to him as the last guy who had the curse and was still alive.
that’s the thing the demon would most likely inflict delusions to make you think you did before you can
@@leondreamcastyep basically after watching smile 2. Also funny because she responded to a man from an “unknown” number to meet up and actually think she could genuinely get rid of it as well.
that's actually chilling. kudos.
He would rather be in prison than having the smile entity infecting him
Did that guy win an Oscar 😂
Good acting
My son told me that this scene scared him more than the actual jump-scenes. 😅
2:21 - 2:41 this scene cracked me up 😂😂
You're so cool and edgy wow!
How mf??
How? It was a very intense and serious situation?
This scene had a bit of twist...he told the cop to leave so the cop wont hear how the curse gets passed on & at the end ....well you know what happen.
This movie was better than smile 2
If you think about it, no two victims of the thing ever met so the only chance both of them might have had would have been if they had actually stuck together and tried to fight the thing at once
So you can’t get rid of it you can only pass it on
When you run into your ex in public: 2:28
😂😂😂
Or a coworker
