  • Hey All! This was a super super solid horror movie. I have mentioned on my channel before that I tend to not get scared of older horror movies, for a combination of reasons. The effects can be outdated, the way actors do dialogue is dated, or just film-making sensibilities in general are different today. Despite all I just said, this one still managed to give me goosebumps from hell and managed to really freak me out.
    This video is purely for commentary purposes, and is NOT a replacement for the original film. Please go watch the original film.

    Never clicked on a video so fast 😆 Thank you so much for taking the request and being willing to make a reaction for it! That's super cool. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. This, The Innocents (1961), The Woman in Black (1989), and Whistle and I'll Come to You (1968) are my favorite ghost stories of all time. I'm gonna check out your Fallout reactions since I haven't watched it yet. I enjoy the insight and thought you put into your videos.

    The cemetery they visited is on Capitol Hill in Seattle. Bruce Lee and Brandon Lee are both buried right near that very spot. I’ve been to that cemetery many times.

    That ball scene gives me goosebumps every time! I'm 47 now, first saw this when I was 15. STILL scares the hell out of me! And I'm a Goth! One of the best horror films of all time!

    This was a theatrical release that did okay in the theaters - a minor success in the vein of Magic (1978) or The Uninvited (1944) - low budget atmosphere. The version you are watching might have been spliced for TV viewing. I’ve always enjoyed it, though I think it could have used one more script edit.

    George C. Scott and Trish Van Devere (Claire) were married in real life.

    i couldnt believe it when i came across this reaction.. for the most part no one seems to have heard of it. i did see at the theater... i remember specifically because i friend i went with was eating m&ms, and when the glass busted out at the beginning, she screamed and her m&m's didnt make it lol... they were flying thru the air. rewatching a few times i felt the slow parts are very slow, but the scary parts are very scary... i can still my son but whispering Joesph. ok, thats no true, but his dad would wait until bedtime, bang on the wall and say it... so mean ... thx so much for the great reaction, it was nice seeing it thru a new set of eyes so to speak

      Thanks for commenting and sharing your experience with the movie! You're right, there were some really slow parts, moments of scenes dragging on too long with no dialogue. If that had been made today, the run time would be significantly reduced.

    When this came out, I was impressed with the gigantic mansion it takes place in. I remember reading that it was an actual house in Seattle that was slated to be demolished, which suited the needs of the production.
    The Changeling with Angie has no relation to this flick but is based on a true story of a woman whose child disappears, is found much later and returned to her... but is not her child.

      That Mansion was built in South Vancouver Canada. It was a facade and wasn’t a whole building. I have pictures of it being built for the movie. The interiors were filmed on a soundstage. There was no actual Mansion. Maybe you’re getting that story confused with the house where Joseph was found. That house was slated to be demolished.

    A good scary movie doesn't have to have gore just good film, editing and sound. This is why I like this movie so much.

    Cool reaction. This movie is hella scary the first time seeing it but it becomes a mystery thriller. You feel empathy for this boy and want redemption for him. This is one of Martin Scorsese favorite horror movies.

    The Other (not The Others) is very scary from 1972. Burnt Offerings from 1976. And The Sentinel from 1977.

    So, not too sure why you keep on putting your face in the middle of the video? I don’t know if someone else has talked about this, but couldn’t you just keep it to the side? Kind of frustrating actually.

      Hey thanks for visiting, despite not liking the editing. To answer your question, no, no one has ever mentioned that before. So to give you a little more insight, depending on the movie studio a film is from, you get 4 to 5 seconds of uninterrupted video before it becomes a copyright issue. When you don't follow that basic guideline, the video is blocked, and youtube will tell you the time marks of the video that are in violation and need fixing. That's when you see a reactor throw in a blur or some other method to cut away. The thing is, even with the blur, some of youtube's detection still can tell when a scene is running. I found slapping my circle window where my head is in the middle of the screen helps me satisfy youtube.
      There are a lot of things not ideal about uploading a reaction video. I would rather just upload a full uncut video of me reacting to something, and spend little to zero time editing, vs me having to spend DAYS editing and adding blurs and cutting videos just for one upload to youtube. But that's what we have to do in order to not break copyright rules.
