I don't think Christine was magically manipulating Arnie. I think Christine was basically a loyal but hyper-possessive teenage girl, and that she and Arnie were in love.
I do think the film intended her to be a succubus. Interestingly, in the novel it’s framed more as the car being haunted by its former owner who frequently appears before Arnie (but the filmmakers worried that people would accuse them of ripping off American Werewolf in London).
You could view the movie interpretation as a drugs analogy: drastic changes in personality, paranoia, anger, violent when he’s confronted by his behaviour
I never really cared what The Thing really looked like. What I wanted to know was: 1. Why did it come alone? 2. Where was it originally from and are more coming? 3. If it’s an advanced enough species to have space travel then why the heck did it end up crashing in a part of the Earth that has been predominantly uninhabited until the last 120 years or so? 4. What if the reason it crashed is because it was running from something worse? And maybe that’s why it went somewhere so inhospitable.
@@ShadowAngel71Oh, I always assumed the flying saucer was crashing because the actual occupants were a victim of The Thing. Kind of like how the Space Jockey ship in Alien had been attacked
I think it was intentionally coming to Earth, because I think it was trying to spread itself across the universe by going from planet to planet. The Blair Thing crafts a spaceship to take off from Earth again, so presumably, the plan is to leave some of itself here and then take to the stars again and head to another planet to repeat the process. My question then is how many planets has it done this to?
@@ShadowAngel71 I guess I meant, are there more conglomerated individual organisms or did it start from one single cell as an individual organism and just kept multiplying as it took over other organisms? In that case, does it have a collective consciousness or can each cell think for itself?
How do we really know it did come alone? An entity like that, it could have been several different entities for all we know. It never said it was alone, it's just an assumption we make. An entity like that could be the size of a germ in its original form.
Promethean fate (birds pecking at his liver), and his character rarely imbibed until he started his work at the lighthouse (effects of alcohol on the liver). I think it’s about drunken mania rather than supernatural elements.
If I needed to have answers it would be for the Boogeyman Trilogy. Like 1) Why are there 3 different ones in the series? 2) Did Tim kill everyone and was just suffering from a mental break or was the Boogeyman real? 3) In the second movie was the Boogeyman an entity or was he a metaphor for psychotic tendencies in killers? SO MANY QUESTIONS!
The Hand (1981): After Michael Caine's hand is severed in a road accident, several murders occur, seemingly by the severed hand itself. At the climax, it appears as though Michael Caine was the murderer all along. HOWEVER, the film ends with Caine in an insane asylum, tied up with a doctor, trying to get him to admit he was the killer. Suddenly, the hand appears and kills the doctor, then frees Caine. Was the murderous Hand real all along? Or is this ending simply an extension of Caine's insanity, and he freed himself another way and killed the doctor? 🤔
Christine, Carrie, and the Mist are so good I couldn’t compare them. Misery is also epic, and The Shining might honestly be the best, but it’s not King’s vision. I mean to say that’s a hard list to pick a best from.
I think of the thing as more of an infection than a creature. I watched Dual with my dad as a child, it was the first thing I ever enjoyed that didn't have unicorns or something in it.
I liked Paradox, but I agree that a sequel would be fun. But then we’re trading viewers who didn’t “get” the last two movies for those that would be upset saying it’s too much like the original, they’re being way too conservative. Either way, I’d like to see more as well.
The way he looks at you is true love. I had that until a few months ago when I had to put him down. My other two cats always look at me like "When's lunch?"
Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon shows an elderly Billy (from Black Christmas), a cut scene explained it, or it’s what the director wanted, but had to cut that part of the storyline for time
Mines is who killed Kieran? Who was the one the receptionist called Mr. James ? In the scream tv series season 2 finale 😭 It’s so sad I loved that show 😕
Hopefully Halloween six, and John carpenters the thing is on here. I feel like John Goodman character explains the aliens pretty well. But it’s been a while. I have to watch and see. But I remember him having a good explanation for everything in the first movie. We know what the thing looks like I think. From the comics, the stuff that was cut from the prequel
Did the writer watch The Endless? 1. The main characters are brothers, not friends. 2. Another example of a WC Horror writer asking for answers from a Cosmic Horror movie
Also (though I haven’t seen this in years), I don’t remember the cult dying. In my recollection it was that if they didn’t leave that area before time reset the brothers would be stuck there
@@marcykeeley7709 The cult was stuck in a several-day time loop that always ended in them being sucked up into the sky and killed by the Entity before resetting. If the brothers had stayed to the end of the loop and been included in the deaths/reset they would also have been trapped forever with the other cultists.
It gets explained where the monsters from all cloverfield films come from in the Cloverfield paradox when the booted up their power generator on the space station it caused the monster’s and aliens to come to Earth
@@TheFrugalVideoGamer that's crazy lol because they literally said brothers at another point, or maybe I'm mixing memories of 2 videos. if your gonna do this kind of thing you should watch the movies so you can Intelligently speak about it.
@@dylanglaze990 I think a lot of the videos they post are narrated versions of the articles on their site, though why the article missed the mark that much I have no idea.
It doesn't look like she watched The Thing with the way she pronounced MacReady's name. Saying that, it was good to see the film being called an adaptation and not a remake at long last.
One of the greatest things about these kinds of movies is that they are thought-provoking because of the ambiguity and mystery. Years or even decades later, people are asking questions. It's good material for writers, imo.
I think with things like the entity in Endless and it's motives the simple answer is often: because it can. Why do kids twist the limbs off their toys? Because they can and they're exploring. That's how eldritch beings see humans
How so many people were able to get through “The Lighthouse” is beyond. And that even includes me, and I ask myself whenever it comes up or shows up somewhere. Feel even more jipped because I did finish it, and I don’t remember any of that ending minus him finally going up there and looking into the light. You’d think that ending would be the part to remember. Sounds like an interesting scene and possibly the best part in this specific entry in the Robert Pattinson masterbates series.
The book doesn't imply that Christine is possessed by the spirits of the daughter and wife of the original owner. The book flat-out tells you it is possessed by the spirit of the original owner who is also possessing Arnie.
About "Duel". While the truck driver is never shown nor identified, nor do we know why he chose to target the salesman that passed him on the highway, we DO know that he is a homicidal psychopath. The front bumper of his truck is covered with license plates. These are his trophies from previous victims. The salesman isn't the first person who he has targeted like this, he's done it several times previously. You have to pay attention while they're showing the front bumper of the truck, otherwise you'll miss it.
That is not necessarily correct...for quite a time, long-haul semis had to be plated for each state they were active in. Given the time frame of this movie, and the fact that one of the plates is an Arizona plate, I would say this is the more likely explanation.
@@floydtullis6746 That might be so, but Stephen Spielberg himself said that the reason why the truck had at least a half dozen license plates on its front bumper was because they were trophies from previous kills.
In the book Christine, Christine’s previous owner, Roland Labey, inhabits the cars after he dies and his evil spirit haunts the car and controls Arnie. In the movie, John Carpenter (with permission from Stephen King) changed it to have the car be ‘born’ evil.
I feel like there were better movies to have questions to like Midsommar (Did the cult let the protagonist leave unharmed or did they kill her too?) and Samantha/Donnie Darko. I literally had 3 pages of questions all for Samantha Darko! LOL
How about a major fill in the blank in Alien: Romulus and that question is "What happened to Kay in between when the Offspring approaches her and when we see her dead body in the hands of the Offspring ?". Did she get her body strangled by the Offspring or did he knock her unconscious in between where she's finally killed by being breastfed on.
@@godzilla2k26 How though ? I'm not being sarcastic here but Z-01 is so vague in what it does that we don't even know if the side effects would be her internal organs being liquefied to the point to where he drank her up like a smoothie.
@@godzilla2k26 So if he drained her internals so does he drink blood as well ? This scene in the movie lacks visuals so instead of knowing what happened we the audience is left speculating.
@@godzilla2k26 But wasn't the black goo just confined to her breast milk because she was lactating it ? If you have a link to an article to verify this please put it here because I've been trying to understand it because in the film they had zero problem showing how every character died onscreen but Kay's was off screen, Me personally she didn't deserve to die and at least have her live after giving birth to the Offspring.
Regarding The Thing...I always wondered why no one just talked to it. Clearly through the 'copying' process, why not just ask it to stop, what it wants, help it build a ship and get it out of here...
King’s known for possessed vehicle stories, but there’s only so many ways you can take it. I just read a story he did with his son Hill, Jonah I think is his first name. And it’s pretty damn close to “Duel”. Only here there’s nothing supernatural (I personal don’t remember if the truck was supernatural in nature or a nameless faceless pissed off trucker). The trucker in this one, for no explained reason, follows a biker club and proceeds to plow down the riders. Starting from the back with the straggling bikers. He’s either obsessed with cars or periodically drys up on ideas and spooky vehicles are his fallback.
Re - The Lighthouse: In true Cosmic Horror fashion, Winslow is screaming at the end NOT because the light is burning him like Icarus touching the sun. He’s screaming in apocalyptic terror because the light is exposing him to forbidden knowledge about the universe and probably human mortality (likely that it is meaningless and that everything we do in life is ultimately for nothing). Scoff if you must, but it’s surprising how many people cannot handle the massive blow to the ego that comes from knowing how insignificant humans really are in macrocosmic terms. The resulting fall could as much be seen as a downward spiral into total despair as it is a fall from grace reminiscent of Prometheus’ being cast into the Underworld by the Gods of Olympus.
Honestly..no one really cares what the creature looks like..I wouldn't even place it in the top 100 questions..I have never heard anyone wondering what it looked like
Could Jem/Gem stop referring to Kurt Russell’s character in John Carpenter’s “The Thing” as Mac-Ready (mack ready). The character is named “mack-reedy.” It’s not the first time she has referred to him incorrectly. Can you guys run through the script pronunciations with the reader if they don’t know how to say it? It’s a horror classic and it makes you guys look like you don’t know what you’re talking about.
With or without Black Christmas this gritty level of slasher was on the way thanks to the rise of white American serial killers of the time. Just an insight
It wasn't the previous owner's daughter, she was killed by Christine in the same way she later tried to kill Arnie's girlfriend. This caused the wife to then hook a hose to Christine's exhaust pipe to kill herself.
I consider it one, as there are some pretty horrific and scary scenes (enough to at least classify it as a thriller). Additionally, the Wikipedia page on it describes it as a “surrealist tragicomedy horror film”, which I personally believe gets well with the content of the movie.
Question to the host; McREADY???😆😅🤣😂 like have you even watched the movie??? I don't think you would pronounce his name the way you did if you have ever really watched this movie...just sayin
1:29 it was explained... the space ship in the third movie cracked the space time quantum and all sorts of creatures and species flooded into different timelines... its quite literally explained
The 10 cloverfields lane aliens themselves and their link to the cloverfeild monster *is* explained in the cloverfeild paradox, it's just a utterly disappointing explanation and does nothing for either film. (nor does it make the film it's in, worth watching, imo anyway.) Random aliens on/around earth are all due to some messing around with the whole partial accelerator thingie they activate in Cloverfeild Paradox, which basically smashes tons of parallel universes together and moves living creatures (and the space station.) through space, time, and to parallel universes from their own, including the NYC clover wrecks and the John Goodman basement world. For no damn reason, just at random. 🙃 (The rest of this comment is just a rant about how poorly handled the cloverfeild franchise was, especially by the final film. God I pray it's the final film anyway, at most, I'd give em a series to work on this mess, no more disconnected movies allowed.) So we have an answer, those aliens are there because the crew on the cloverfeild space station use a particle accelerator to get energy or something, and it sends them to a parallel universe, while it also sends a bunch of other lifeforms/aliens to parallel universes, and... that's the whole explanation. Some dudes pressed a button in one universe and now all the universes are blending together, and so aliens from a parallel universe were brought to John Goodman cloverfeild world, and clovers species likely came to NYC universe via this same cause, if not just clover herself...which okay does make her even sadder because she's a baby, all on her own, in a parallel universe, and people are bombing her and shooting her....but also ehh we don't need her to be sadder, leave my baby alone cloverfeild writers her story is sad enough as is! (Look I like humans I'm not saying she should have killed them or that I'm glad she did, I'm just saying it's tragic, like Frankenstein. she's completely alien, in a world not built for her, that she's not built for either, and she doesn't even have the benefit of life experience because she's basically a newborn.) I cannot get over how bad the cloverfeild paradox was for the 'franchise', like I don't think there was any benefit from connecting cloverfeild and 10 cloverfeild lane for either film, but there was active loss for the series by releasing the cloverfeild paradox. It made the previous two films worse in retrospect, because these questions we could theorise on and over analyse, are now answered in such a boring way. Oh some one pressed a button to mash the multiverse? Wow so deep and interesting that this all happend randomly!!!! For zero purpose!!! Boring! Cloverfeild franchise rant over.
So, since no one ever brings this up on any list, there are answers a plenty on 10 Cloverfield Lane, as well as the whole franchise. There were massive ARG marketing stunts pulled for all 3 movies that explaine almost everything. I recommend whiching the videos done by TH-camr Inside A Mind, who covered all of the ARGs for all 3 movies. This isn't just a WC Horror thing, I have yet to see ANY channel actually look into the ARG when talking about these movies like this.
What was the alian invasion in 10 Cloverfield Lane, you ask? Well...maybe the fact that there is a movie called Cloverfield: Monster and another one called The Cloverfield Paradox will provide some answers. Hint: those three movies might be connected (sharing the word Cloverfield in the title may not be just a coincidence)
In the book, Christine's owner was haunting the car and tried to possess Arnie. It was never the car.
They also explained, in brief, how the car "healed".
I don't think Christine was magically manipulating Arnie. I think Christine was basically a loyal but hyper-possessive teenage girl, and that she and Arnie were in love.
I do think the film intended her to be a succubus.

Not finding out who Billy is and if she lived or not is what makes Black Christmas creepy. Chrsitine is controlled by the previous owner.

I imagine The Thing probably looked a lot like The Blob initially. Just a formless mass.
"All Eyes" (2022) has several questions that don't need to be answered; in fact for a lot of the movie you wonder if the monster is even real

I hope we get a proper sequel to Cloverfield.

Being made by Ari Aster and A24 doesn't make Beau is Afraid a horror movie.
I consider it one, as there are some pretty horrific and scary scenes (enough to at least classify it as a thriller). Additionally, the Wikipedia page on it describes it as a “surrealist tragicomedy horror film”, which I personally believe gets well with the content of the movie.
Question to the host;
McREADY???😆😅🤣😂 like have you even watched the movie??? I don't think you would pronounce his name the way you did if you have ever really watched this movie...just sayin
1:29 it was explained... the space ship in the third movie cracked the space time quantum and all sorts of creatures and species flooded into different timelines... its quite literally explained
The 10 cloverfields lane aliens themselves and their link to the cloverfeild monster *is* explained in the cloverfeild paradox, it's just a utterly disappointing explanation and does nothing for either film. (nor does it make the film it's in, worth watching, imo anyway.)
Random aliens on/around earth are all due to some messing around with the whole partial accelerator thingie they activate in Cloverfeild Paradox, which basically smashes tons of parallel universes together and moves living creatures (and the space station.) through space, time, and to parallel universes from their own, including the NYC clover wrecks and the John Goodman basement world. For no damn reason, just at random. 🙃
(The rest of this comment is just a rant about how poorly handled the cloverfeild franchise was, especially by the final film. God I pray it's the final film anyway, at most, I'd give em a series to work on this mess, no more disconnected movies allowed.)
So we have an answer, those aliens are there because the crew on the cloverfeild space station use a particle accelerator to get energy or something, and it sends them to a parallel universe, while it also sends a bunch of other lifeforms/aliens to parallel universes, and... that's the whole explanation.
Some dudes pressed a button in one universe and now all the universes are blending together, and so aliens from a parallel universe were brought to John Goodman cloverfeild world, and clovers species likely came to NYC universe via this same cause, if not just clover herself...which okay does make her even sadder because she's a baby, all on her own, in a parallel universe, and people are bombing her and shooting her....but also ehh we don't need her to be sadder, leave my baby alone cloverfeild writers her story is sad enough as is!
(Look I like humans I'm not saying she should have killed them or that I'm glad she did, I'm just saying it's tragic, like Frankenstein. she's completely alien, in a world not built for her, that she's not built for either, and she doesn't even have the benefit of life experience because she's basically a newborn.)
I cannot get over how bad the cloverfeild paradox was for the 'franchise', like I don't think there was any benefit from connecting cloverfeild and 10 cloverfeild lane for either film, but there was active loss for the series by releasing the cloverfeild paradox.
It made the previous two films worse in retrospect, because these questions we could theorise on and over analyse, are now answered in such a boring way. Oh some one pressed a button to mash the multiverse? Wow so deep and interesting that this all happend randomly!!!! For zero purpose!!! Boring!
Cloverfeild franchise rant over.
So, since no one ever brings this up on any list, there are answers a plenty on 10 Cloverfield Lane, as well as the whole franchise. There were massive ARG marketing stunts pulled for all 3 movies that explaine almost everything. I recommend whiching the videos done by TH-camr Inside A Mind, who covered all of the ARGs for all 3 movies. This isn't just a WC Horror thing, I have yet to see ANY channel actually look into the ARG when talking about these movies like this.
It’s the millennium, motive is inconsequential.
You're really overthinking on a lot of these movies.
What was the alian invasion in 10 Cloverfield Lane, you ask? Well...maybe the fact that there is a movie called Cloverfield: Monster and another one called The Cloverfield Paradox will provide some answers. Hint: those three movies might be connected (sharing the word Cloverfield in the title may not be just a coincidence)
Why was 10 Cloverfield even made? This is a question that may never be answered.
They said it, it was a completely different movie and then they decided to tack on the aliens at the end to tie it in, for no reason.
@@fadedgabe791 The reason is probably money: brand recognition and the (expected) audience draw coming out of that.
@@QuantumCat76 the reason is always money
At this point, everything Joaquin Phoenix does is trash. Just stop.
The Thing prequel was bad.
The worst case of studio interference.
