Note the two tones, that's what makes it so powerful. The first tone is questioning surprise, as he's reacting to what he just discovered, the second tone is final and accusatory. I reflect on that scene a lot.
This is so very David Cronenberg. Brilliant. No-one else has vision like that which takes place in his dark plumbings. The brief, horrific exchange of deaths, so to speak, with genius Colleen Dewhurst as Mrs. Dodd! Wow! Great great great 👍 Can’t thank you enough for airing this .
Cronenberg is so skilled at creating a sparse yet hefty palette in scenes & sets. To me he collages “Canadian-ness” northern North Hemisphere climate, art, history, myth & edge of terror of the night. I note this with all due admiration.
When Johnny whispers, " I saw his face...I saw his face " at 1:43, the goosebumps rise! I noticed throughout the movie that Walken would repeat a line and give a different inflection every time. Great acting!
0:12 growl of a contra bassoon was always a great creepy sound in old TV and movie soundtracks from the earlier 1970s to this film, then they changed the musical ideas. Now it's all flash BANG, whallop!
At 5:49 when Tom Skerritt hits his head on the door the music and sound affect is straight from the movie "Alien" in which he also starred...maybe a nod to that film?
The boy had his service pistol with him, yet he killed himself in a way where he could have easily screwed up and lived a life of pain. What an ass. Lmao
I think that Stephen King is an amazing writer and he opened up the world 2 psychic abilities!! But what people do not realize is that we all have that power we just have to learn how to harness it and use it properly
you knew , didn't ya, You Knew! gets me every time. powerful Christopher walken intense great actor

Damn, Colleen Dewhurst. When they were casting this movie, they didn't skimp on any of the parts. Every role played to perfection.

Who knew Marilla Cuthbert could be such a sharp shooter but poor Marilla; she didn't even get a chance to say goodbye to Anne Shirley
Along with Shawshank and Green Mile one of the consumate King adaptations, just perfect...
Ah yes, her son is murdering left and right but the bearer of truth is sent from hell by the devil.
She’s crazy, he’s not the devil, her son is
Sheriff bannerman is the cop that gets killed by cujo
Thank you so much Philip four airing this. 👍❣️
Did you know who played the dead girl
At 5:49 when Tom Skerritt hits his head on the door the music and sound affect is straight from the movie "Alien" in which he also starred...maybe a nod to that film?
Checked it out myself. I see what you mean!!
That Dodd was one creepy looking dude.
Herbert Lom is a fine Actor
Her son was the real devil not johnny smith
The boy had his service pistol with him, yet he killed himself in a way where he could have easily screwed up and lived a life of pain. What an ass. Lmao
The bullet went right through me. It's nothing.
That was a painful way to off yourself!
That lady is crazy
0:32 is so... menacing
Damn good movie!
Best thing Cronenberg ever made, Herbert Lom was so good.
4;10 he sees all, but not the sherrif walking towards him 😁
Good grief. I look at him and THAT'S what I FEEL. Miss u Harry.
3:28 i didnt need psychic abilities to figure that out
Guess they only rented one car for the movie.
They had to pay for Martin Sheen, they didn't have much left over.
I reside in, "Alive Zone" 😉
“You’re the devil” I would say to her your son is the devil no one is above the law
I think that Stephen King is an amazing writer and he opened up the world 2 psychic abilities!! But what people do not realize is that we all have that power we just have to learn how to harness it and use it properly
7:10... In the Pink Panther movies
Herbert Lom
Man i hope they didnt have that poor lady lay there in a snow hoping that was a cast or somthing
1:29 you werent tbere when it happened johnny
Frank’s room is odd
Why did frank become a Serial killer? Why was his mother protecting him?
I don't know, but I'd like to know that, too. Maybe King should have included a side story that woudl have explained that.
@@brynne77 maybe his mother abused him
He was sexually abused by his mother at a young age!
it's there
Why would she think he’s the devil?
You think you a know a guy
