In Five Nights At Freddy's, a hapless security guard begins a new job at an abandoned pizzeria, and soon learns that the animatronics have murderous minds of their own. We're breaking down the story, including the lingering mysteries, how it connects to the game series and explaining the ending and post credits scene.

I actually do believe William recognized Mike when he met him in the office. You can tell because he pauses as he reads his last name, and then leans forward to get a closer look at him. As if trying to see the resemblance to Garrett.
He doesn't recognize him until he reads the last name
Exactly right i think as well.
I thought the same thing the way he stopped before he read his last name. I also loved the Easter egg with the poster in the room. Too bad they didn’t do the nose squeak.
Yep and only then did he offer the job
I noticed thus too.
It’s genuinely refreshing to see practical effects being used in a newly released movie. The Jim Henson company absolutely nailed the designs of the animatronics.
The 2nd FNAF movie is gonna be one hell of a challenge production wise considering that there’s over 15 animatronics in the game.😂
I kind of hope they do their own timeline instead of following the games. I'd rather have a sequel to this than a prequel next like in the games. We need to explore Vanessa, Golden Freddy, and the fate of Garret. It would be amazing if they could tell a compelling story that incorporates the backstory over 5 films.
I still can't believe how GOOD the animatronics look. When I first saw behind the scenes footage, I thought it was a hoax because they looked so much like the game models that it almost looked fake.
Jim Henson has been a huge deal with me since my childhood. He would have loved this and been super proud. He was more that a puppet guy. He was a crazy surreal film maker as well.
I grew up watching films featuring Jim Henson's work such as DARK CRYSTAL
And I think the workshop has aged like a fine wine
And five nights at Freddy's isn't really a film that called for a bunch of visual effects
And the animatronics they made were much better than I thought they would be
I knew they'd be good but these guys are on another level of amazing
@@paulsmith410bro, the first movie is literally their own timeline well I mean it’s a combination of the books and games but the it isn’t canon to the game. But they did it pretty well so I don’t mind that that they changed the lore a bit and especially reverse the family’s role between Mike & Vanessa’s family so it’s cool
I think the “C O M E F I N D M E” message is definitely Garret as the Puppet. His kidnapping resembles Charlie’s death in the main series in a lot of ways. First, it was most likely Afton’s first kill, as evidenced by Vanessa having Garret’s toy plane in a photo taken at Freddy’s while it was still open, ergo before the missing children’s incident, and is the only crime of William’s we know to have taken place outside of a Fazbear Entertainment building. How the Puppet animatronic would be involved with Garret is unclear, but everything else seems to match perfectly.
(Actually, in the actual event of Garret being taken, the pre possession Puppet actually mirrors Mike- being designated to protect the victim and failing to do so.)
did freddys actually close down because of the missing kids? i thought the bite of 87 was what finally made them shut down
@@Drakonix115the bite was the first thing that made it close but there are a bunch of other pizzerias so they just moved all the animatronics to the other pizzerias
@Drakonix115 there was 2 bites 83 and 87 but 87 is the most recognizable one which made the toy animitronics pitzzaeria shut down which lead to the pitzzaria in the first game
So refreshing to see someone who didn’t know much/anything about the games do some well rounded research when reviewing this movie! Have seen so many reviewers caught up on the silly premise that they forget that it’s why the games were so popular and that it’s what audiences wanted that they missed the fun and I love you got into the theorising spirit!
Never thought I’d actually want more jump scares from a movie
This movie is pretty much Blumhouse testing the waters. They’re definitely gonna ramp up the scare factor for the upcoming sequels.
Why? Tension and atmosphere develops it better
@@andrecarpenter2432tension and jump-scares go hand in hand
A good, will made jump scare comes as the payoff of a moment of mounting suspense, and is just effective after the tension is cranked up building to the shock
A GOOD horror movie can give you jump-scares and tension in equal measures, without compromising the atmosphere surrounding them
They did say they are delaying the second one due to fan feedback and changing the script
@@callumnorris3738please keep the retcons to a minimum. Stick to the story beats you have developed. Dont pivot from (presumably) afton nr 3 to the mimic with minimal context as to how we got here. This series lacks a backbone. It has kind of worked for him. But Also the series did start shipping for waterskis after he scrapped dream theory.
I’ve gotta give props to the Jim Henson Company and Matthew Lillard. The practical effects for the animatronics are great, and Lillard is scarily good as Afton, which is really freaky considering he’s also the voice of Shaggy.
He definitely recognized Mike. He was disrespectful and snarky to him up until he read his name then completely changed his tone. He knew Mike and who he was. as for Garrett, it's likely he's the puppet. The "It's Me" was always therorized to be the crying child trying to get the attention of the security guard who was his older brother Mike. And Garrett seems to be the Puppet which has been hinted out throughout the movie. Puppet was on the blackboard and Come Find me is similar to the Save them in the games. And it is the year 2000 (security camera had the date). Early enough where some poeple have cells but early enough that it wouldn't be strange to not have.
You're just a little super sleuth aren't you
@tntboomy Not in the slightest. A lot of game theory on FNAF, and a little of my own conclusions after things were pointed out to me.
I loved how wholesome they revealed Freddie & Gang to be, reminding us that these aren’t just simple minded robots, they contain the souls of traumatized children. Like how they relied on pictures to understand what happened to them. 🥺😭 it really made me feel for them and the horrible injustice they were dealt.
oh yeah the kids who were brutally murdered just wanna have funn!! honestly I think the main horror aspect of FnaF was gutted to sell to kids, which I cant blame Scott for. Bro is raking in millions with this watered down version. The og fnaf was shrouded in mystery and the atmosphere really put it all together. Now you got fucking vannesa somehow knowing micheal and being the daughter of william afton. Like seriously what a let down :/
@@MrAwesomeHero1There is no main horror aspect. This series will never be R rated Horror.
FNAF in general isn't horror. There is no watered down version
@@MrAwesomeHero1imagine thinking five nights at Freddie's was ever scary... lmao
To me that actually made it worse. Now I have to be conflicted.
So much easier (and more boring) when the monsters are just pure evil.
@@glitterspray except they aren't pure evil lmao
Coming from a non-FNAF fan and big horror geek, this was so enjoyable to watch. I can't even explain why.
It reminds me Goosebumps and other youth-horror like productions. Quite chill and fun. FNAF movie was quite a pleasant surprise for me cause I expected much worse.
@@siemowitrazielus5557 I think that's the feeling I'm getting. Considering the fandom, they didn't have to try with this movie but they did.
Kind vintage.
I've stopped caring. I haven't seen the majority of the reviews I've watched on here, and I've been wat h Foundflix since...Blackcoat's daughter...though i did see that one after I watched Chris' review.
100%. As a person who grew up watching horror this was a fun and pretty spooky watch for me.
I think its the unsettling feeling u get , the vibes, the tracks. And Chica looks terrifying. No blood or gore needed for pyschological effects
I absolutelly LOVED how MatPat got a cameo in the movie, being one of the most prominent voices of the FNAF fandom online, the other being Markiplier who was asked to appear in the movie as the security guard that preceded Mike before being murdered, but he turned it down due to a scheduling conflict with his own movie Iron Lung
It kinda feels like a reward for all the effort 😂
I'm sure the millions of dollars also feel like a reward too 🤔
It's consumerism and free advertising for the movie. Makes the most profit that way while paying the least amount of people
I hate matpat with a passion so I wasn’t too pleased to see him in the movie at all lol
@@connorcooke1502ooo why do you hate him??
@@connorcooke1502 Why though?
I think the FNAF community is in agreement that the “Come find me” message is from Garrett from what I’ve seen. Seeing that his spirit isn’t with the other five and his fate is left in the dark. Though which animatronic he’s controlling is up for debate some speculate that he is the puppet, others believe that he is going to be something else.
I've seen 3 common options: the puppet, Balloon Boy, or one not in the movie but one that will be in a sequel.
The only other animatronics he could be if not taking into account the two you have already said, maybe mangle or the toy animatronics if it’s not the puppet
This guy out here pretending to speak for an entire community. Stop rambling about them and say what YOU think
@@grilledleeks6514 I didn’t say that I spoke for the FNAF community dumbass. It’s called an observation. In every video I’ve seen on the subject it has the exact same conclusion. A conclusion I happen to agree with.
@@jackc3002nah mangle is super hostile and usually just comes after you
I never actually played any of the games, I just got interested in the lore months ago and watched a lot of content about the story, yet I was SO hyped throughout the entire movie. Caught quite a few references, didn’t catch some of them, and I had a TON of fun. The fan service was done masterfully. I can only imagine how excited long-time fans must’ve felt, especially if they’ve loved the series ever since the first game. Blumhouse and Scott Cawthon did a fantastic job
They teased the puppet in a couple scenes. "Blink and you'll miss it" kind of thing. Its hiding in the shadows behind the stage at one point, and in another spot you can see it peering from the kitchen.
that is not the puppet. it seems the crew hid an endo skeleton in the background of a lot of scenes and even if it is not the puppet it is really fun to see
@@emmanuelfuentes3650 the one behind the stage I can believe. But the kitchen one literally shows the crying puppet mask lol
@@originalgaige5619 I've been looking at that. There is only one post about that scene on Reddit and everyone in the comments of that archived post say it's most likely not a real image. In fact atticpartiers went back to check and it is not there. The one behind the main stage on the camera and the one behind chica when Mike checks on them for the first time are both confirmed to be tina the Endo skeleton
Also I don't think getting hurt in the dream world, is what hurt him. Pretty sure the boys ghost used the foxy robot to cut him then it took off
as a long fan of you and a longer fan of fnaf, this is really nice to see. not only did you do great research but you did a way better job on actually getting the facts right. if it weren't for you saying you weren't that into the lore i would've thought you atleast dabled in it a bit. so great job and this was really nice to see coming from you especially
When they started showing how wholesome the robots were I was mad but then after a bit I realize softened to it. As a kid I was traumatized. I liked other kids and only certain adults. I forgot (and still forget) parts of my past and my trauma. Those were just kids. I like that they made them as kids.
Holy cow!! This movie was so good! It's like M3GAN, Black Phone, and Willy's Wonderland all beautifully mixed together. I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE a sequel! New elements and all, they did a terrific job adapting the story and the games! Thank you so much for covering the film🙏
William Afton had a motive for kidnapping Garrett across state lines, it was personal. Mike's mother is Mrs Afton who left William when she was preggo with Mike. They ended up with Henry Schmitt who was William's coworker. The only hint we have of this is the Schmitt family photo where Henry is using rabbit ears on Mike. In the novels it is mentioned that William is insanely jealous of Henry. The enraged William found out the Schmitt's location and traveled to Nebraska to abduct Garrett. 'You took my son so I'm taking yours'. Of course this makes Mike and Vanessa siblings. When Mike asks Vanessa, "Who the hell are you?" she replies, "Just someone who wants to help." This theory would explain a lot.
That's quite a theory that!
Would love to see that confirmed someday, maybe if this sequel comes about?
inch resting
There's a gap between a game built completely on jump scares and the lore where the things trying to kill you are, as scott put it, 'still just children who have forgotten what love is.' I'm excited to see the next one, the puppet is my favorite character and probably Mike's brother given the original lore's timeline. I finally got to see these dead kids be happy and play for a few minutes and then watch their murderer suffer which was neat.
Obviously growing up with fnaf from a young age by staying entwined with youtubers since I was like five and hearing about this movie when I was 6 a lot of expectations and doubts grew over the years. Now whether im a real fan or not since I havent touched any of the games, I say thqt the movie is what 6 year old me prolly expected. Not that im saying the movie was tailored to specifically children, but that the fnaf franchise and fandom at that time would have loved the fnaf movie we got. So it was nice to see that deep down the fandom hasnt shifted, but grown because of the overwhelming praise for the movie makes me very happy.
Never thought I’d see the day Foundflix covers FNAF
You serious?
Really? This channel covers pretty much any major horror movie, plus a few niche ones. FNAF was always gonna be on this channel.
Willys wonderland is waaay better than this movie
The place crumbles because the fifth kid, the blonde one, is like a poltergeist. He’s the one randomly opening and locking doors, for example.
You ask me, William Afton's probably just as if not more evil than Freddy Krueger, considering he's also a serial killer child murder.
But with Freddy, after he's killed someone, their just dead. Afton, though, not only killed children but basically enslaves their ghosts through Freddy & the other amatronics. It is utterly terrifying if you think about it.
Actually if you watched the movies you know freddy takes the souls of the children he murdered, trapped them in his body and use them for power. I think it's more terrifying suffering inside a dream killing serial killer
Tyher'e
@@kaneclerk6530 Honestly BOTH are horrifying fates, it's just depending if you fear the more personal Fate of Being Freddy's power, or the More Depressing fate of being Afton's Pawn.
@Deathpunch136 that was only in the remake. Originals never hinted at him being a pedo
The bit where vanessa gives mike the tazers was interesting. She outright said that afton controls the animatronics when hes there and then later said she wouldn't be of any help if her father was there. Its heavily implying she too is a robot, probably closer to book Elizabeth than game Elizabeth where she is able to take on an extremely realistic human form.
I dont know if its just a happy coincidence or they intentionally tried to find someone named Elizabeth to play Vanessa but the pieces are all there
For most of the movie I thought Vanessa secretly was the spirit in the Marionette, since for a while Mike was the only person who saw or spoke to her.
FoundFlix: **explains FNAF lore**
MatPat: Finally! A worthy opponent, our battle will be legendary!
MP: oh? So you’re explaining FNAF lore?
FF: I can’t explain the ending without explaining the lore.
MP: ho ho! Then explain as much as you like.
MatPat is a hack
@@ryanthereaper2943I see you're a person of culture as well
I still can't believe this happened,10 years in the making,this movie did not disappoint,that's for sure,as a Fnaf fan myself,this movie is 8/10
Ehhhhh
It was a 7/10 for me. too much of mike sleeping and not enough time developing the rest of the story. Vanessa just doing a 180° in her mood (which made me think they were going for Vanny) the timeline being blended like a smoothie to make separate lore for the movie universe. It was good in its own right but I was hoping for more
Cope
You need to go to a methadone clinic for that copium addiction.
@@AbdefFable1I agree and i wish the movie was more mature and took itself seriously at times it felt like they wrote the stript specifically for little childrens with goofy lines and the fort scene
I took my twin 10yr olds to see this long sob, thought no way they can sit through this....they last about 15 mins on any movie. They were absolutely glued to the screen every second, and I without knowledge of fnaf because I'm old, didnt think this movie was bad at all....for kids mostly, but lots better than i thought would be. Matthew Lillard did a great job 👍🏻 I would like to see a part 2 fr!!
Why did you take 10 year olds to see this. That's some bad parenting.
@@KatieSteedArt1ok but you're 35 and still into fnaf ☠️
When the kids attacked in the dreams only for it to become real I was like "Did these kids take a lesson or two from Kruger or something?"
Well if you think about it A Nightmare on Elm Street did come out in the 80’s so it’s a big possibility.
This movie gave Saw, A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Black Phone and Scream vibes all in one!
You're very talented and cant get enough of your channel.
For reference, the movie takes place in the year 2000. It's confirmed in the security camera watching Mike when he's waiting to meet his career counselor.
It's a movie made for the fans of the games. Also, I feel like the biggest plot hole is the fact that the police did the search for the missing kids but didn't check the insides of the animatronics. I feel like that's one of the first places the police would check if this was in the real world.
It's never explained in the games why they didn't check the suits as well so it's true to the lore at least
In the games, the police did get the go to search the restaurant but not the animatronics for some safety reasons (don't quite remember it)
in the games fazbear entertainment covered up and swept A LOT of dark stuff under the rug.
@@SnuSnuDungeonit's explained why. They were off limits
I disagree, it was made for children, who know of the game…that’s it. Bc those who grew up playing the games and reading the books, and theorizing with their fav youtubers are bout grown now 😂
This movie is just tops. I sincerely hope they make a sequel
They are. 2 more movies are on the way.
I sincerely hope they make a sequel of you bro
@@revelare_xvii6269I'm sorry to say this, I really am, but source?!
@@hayleycakes3435Scott said himself he would if the first movie was a success, and Matthew liard signed a 3 picture deal.
I deeply loved this movie, and so did my friends who were not super into the lore as I was.
I really loved that it wasn't jumpsacre filled as to me it forced them to focus more on the story and implications of the crimes to push the fear.
Also I still am not sure if it was intentional, but I noticed in many of the places where lore was changed that it ended up pulling from old fan theories for the games themselves, which I thought was a very clever touch if on purpose.
Lillard fucking killed it. He was perfect casting.
I loved this movie so much but I laughed so hard during the scene where Abby introduces the animatronics to Mike due to them giving him the stink eye
Garret is Golden Freddy imo. There was even the classic "It's me" message on the mirror in the movie. You even see the golden Freddy suit where all the dead people got deposited.
I wonder if the tiny balloon boy is a new take on the Fredbear camera from the 4th and 5th game, like maybe that little guy is a camera so William can watch him, and would explain how he moves around
The Balloon Boy is tiny as a reference to one of the Fazbear Frights stories called "Lucky Boy." In case you are unaware, the Fazbear Frights books are a series of 12 books each containing 3 Goosebumps-esk stories. But they can be pretty gory, so I advise caution.
In "Lucky Boy," Balloon Boy is a tiny figurine holding a sign that says "I'm a lucky boy!"
Throughout the story, a man listens to it for advice, telling him to buy a winning lottery ticket that ends up being a winner, leave his hopeless job, leave his girlfriend that he hates, and invest in starting his own business. However, at the end, Lucky Boy encourages him to essentially mutilate himself to make himself "look better" for his high school reunion.
Would LOVE!!! A deeper dive into the Easter Eggs in the movie and if they end up changing your idea of where the series goes!
"We don't even know what 'present day' is."
The movie takes place in the year 2000. It was shown on the security camera after Mike's incident at the mall.
I enjoyed it. You actually cared about the security guard and his little sister.
Here it is, the video I’ve been expecting since the 27th of October. I may or may not have light heartedly teased you about making this to my friends while waiting. Lol
Edit: If anyone is wondering, I was teasing Foundflix about how confusing, doing research about FnaF(specifically lore) must have been. Lol
You talk as if you know him on a personal level???
@@losteagru1121 I don’t. I just assumed Flix wasn’t a Fnaf fan and I know a lot of none Fnaf fans tend to get confused when conducting research on Fnaf.
Golden Freddy is probably Garrett since he knew the aunt’s name!
Garret isn't blonde.
@@theashwoodfaerieThe blonde boy is Freddy, not golden Freddy!
@@MorganVsTheInternetBro when Golden Freddy shows up the Blonde kid shows up. Garrett's fate is unknown plus the kid with the hat is Freddy.
Injuries don't come from the dreams, comes from the animatronics fucking with him while he's asleep
"I don't know, he looks familiar... Some guy that makes a weird comment about something just being a theory, I don't know."
Haha made me chuckle, go MatPat! And go FoundFlix!
loved josh hutcherson in this!almost forgot how great of an actor he is
Right?!?! I was truly surprised by his performance! At first I was like "oh another Hollywood pretty boy trying to make a paycheck, he won't give a shit" but I'm glad I was so so wrong. Him and Mathew Lillard killed their roles. Abby and Vanessa did great too.
Even though max was working with mike's auntie behind his back, i kinda feel bad for her that she got the bit of 87 or 23 treatment
The movie felt truly made with love, not another soulless cash grab by executives.
I dont think so, it felt like an amateur film. they were partying in the main area with a bunch anamotronics that want to stuff you into a suit with dead children inside of the..
I'm convinced that Officer Vanessa is a reference to Vanessa from Security Breach
Blonde woman named Vanessa in a position of authority(cop/security guard) with seemingly ulterior motives but is ultimately innocent in everything
If you go in expecting a horror movie, you will be disappointed... But if you are expecting a FNAF movie you'll probably like it!
This definitely wasn’t a fnaf movie 😂
I expected a fnaf movie to be serious, eerie and creepy tho just like the first game dark and grimy the movie wasn't like that
It's the fact that you're half correct that really makes me not like the movie
You can make a FNAF movie scary and for the fans
It just feels like they threw a script together and then fluffed it up for kids for the extra buck (that they really didn't need I mean this franchise is a cashcow)
Literally all of the top comments I see on vides reviewing the movie are all about Jim hensen studios work which I agree wss good
But we're supposed to be talking about the story not the puppetry
The fact that the first positive thing people about this movie isn't the story p
Kills me
@@brandoncole5533 I agree I've been a fan of the series since 2014 and this movie didnt feel anything like fnaf when you think of fnaf you think of haunting animatronic characters, a dark tone and survival
@@sammyjaohnson5631Fnaf has always been cheesy and tongue in cheek. It has never really been scary. Maybe, maybe the first.
Holy cow, when he said that it had been almost 10 years since the first game came out, that hit me like a truck
These movie recaps are great so I can feel like I've watched something without wasting a lot of time
When they started showing how wholesome the robots were I was mad but then after a bit I realize softened to it. As a kid I was traumatized. I liked other kids and only certain adults. I forgot (and still forget) parts of my past and my trauma. Those were just kids. I like that they made them act like manipulated kids. They were “raised” by a killer and a manipulator but never got to see any outside world. They are like Vanessa (in movie. Not in game).
11:55 I laughed out loud at this part in the movie 😭
GIRL YOU DO NOT THROW SOMEONES PILLS INTO THE RIVER
Also the fact that they're in a orange bottle means they are prescribed by a doctor, DO NOT STOP TAKING MEDICINE PRESCRIBED BY A DOCTOR WITHOUT TELLING THEM FIRST PLEASE GUYS 😭
When Evil Lurks is the best horror of the year.
I definitely need to check it out
@3:05 The dream hypnosis thing is a plot Deus ex machina McGuffin from an episode of a very special different strokes where Arnold and his sister were kidnapped
It was also a huge theory for all the first 4 games.
There were so many things in the movie that retconned the games. Like the realistic state the animatronics should be in (not smelling good), the weird creation of a Vanessa/Elizabeth Afton blend, and the habits of the animatronics to put victims into saw-like traps instead of habitually trying to put people into the suits. Hilariously enough I do find this in the spirit of the fnaf franchises confusing storyline. Although I do wish they could have kept Vanessa and Elizabeth seperate because it means Help wanted, Sister Location and Security Breach's stories and lore will be extremely difficult to put into the movie sequels if there is one.
The dream theory, glowing red eyes, doll animatronic, the ball pit reference, and Springtrap getting dragged away are from the books :)
Between this and M3GAN, Blumhouse is doing pretty well with their gateway horror flicks. More!
My family loved this movie! It was so well done! And I learned an interesting fact about Chica; she had three hands. Two of them were empty, but the third one had Cupcake on it, so whenever they shot a scene with Chica and Cupcake, they would just removed her right hand and pop in the other one.
Wait, i dont follow that plan. They want to get Mike fired by trashing the place...so they do it during the day? When he isnt on shift and thus, not in any way at fault? How would that get hom fired?
Negligence while locking up. He "left a door open" or so they could blame him for that, and that's how the vagrants got in. Yeah, it's a stretch but I've honestly fired ppl for less.
@@hayleycakes3435They broke in thru a bay door. He always used the front door which has a gate, chain, and lock attached to it. The bay door should have been locked years ago so when they broke that lock to get in it be pretty obvious it wasn't his fault. The only way technically it could be negligent is if he didn't check all locks at the beginning and end of his shift. But a broken lock leaves evidence.
"Ten years since the series began"
Anyone else completely forget the series was that old?
Maxine's brother Jeff has a cell phone. After Mike attacks the guy in the mall the scrruity camera when he's waiting said it was 4/6/00. That seems to be the timeline.
My husband and i have been following the games since they first came out. We had so much fun watching the movie. It wasn't some amazing, cinematic masterpiece, but it was fun, and the references were fun to look for and pick out
This film highlights the disparity between what critics enjoy and viewers enjoy. Not everything has to be an exploratory avant garde drama.
I agree with you
You don't always want some deep intellectual masterpiece that makes you think
Sometimes your brain needs a break and you just want to watch something fun
Great fnaf movie but a bad movie on its own. Kinda like the Mario and sonic movies then
@@dean_l33 I turned it off, it kinda is bad ngl and I had no experience with FNAF. So an outsider view (most critics have no idea it was even based off a game) adds up that is kinda meh. If you want a better version, just watch the Nic Cage version.
Everyone knows why the """professional""" critics rated it that way. Not hard to read the room.
Nope the critics know what they're talking about, the movie was shit and the fans don't wanna admit it just because they're fans of the franchise, the movie barely stays true to the best parts of the video game, like I really thought they would at least utilise the security cameras more, it hardly makes sense and it was really boring, like I at least thought it would be fun and have some decent scares but no the whole thing felt forced and most of the plot points made no sense
It’s been 10 years (it feels like) since your last upload.
I’ll be honest, the FNAF movie has its minor flaws. Like the fort scene felt unnecessary, the lack of screen time for Mathew Lillard, and the movie could have been more scary.
Overall, I was blown away with the dedication and work put into this movie. It’s not a masterpiece, but nothing “went wrong” with the movie. It’s Fnaf’s first time on the big screen, so I imagine the second will be better.
Solid 8.5/10
As of writing this, the movie is very close to making 300 million dollars, and it’s budget was 25 million. I’m glad it was successful, and I wish Blumhouse luck for the next installment. Hopefully, we won’t have to wait as long.
We’ve had Horror History and now Ending Explained of FNAF. Now we just need the Dead Meat Kill Count to complete the trifecta. Always love your videos my dude.
15:38 Bacon bait traps are the worst...
Also love the delivery on this haha
I saw it on opening night with a group of friends (all long-time fans) and when we were in the cinema walking to the theater, we got stopped because some people who were in cosplay had ‘too much' face paint on. The manager got called and like 4 different employees showed up to check but they let us in. But before that, one of them said "you guys like balloon boy?" And we just.. stood there. Before collectively being like uh sure..? And he just.. ominously said "He's there." and left ????? And yeah he was right but I'm still puzzled over that whole interaction
Maybe garret wrote the “it’s me” message on the mirror too
TH-cam isn’t pushing your content. I have notifications on and had no idea this video was released
If Garrett was the first victim that would put his death in the early 80s, since the Pizzeria closed in the 80s after the 5 Muders this could set the events of the film in the mid to late 90s. This could explain the lack of cell phones as they weren't as prevalent or affordable then.
Wasn't Nicholas Cage trapped with some animatronic robots in a similar place? Too soon.
"can do research" on FNAF means binge watching Matpat vids on FNAF.
Your hair is looking great my dude! Back to the long hair days from when I first started watching foundflix
Doug, the frumpy, spineless lawyer, was amazing.
Interestingly enough, by doing this, Mike unwittingly gives enough energy for the spirits to feed on to properly communicate with him to indicate the place is haunted and the tape recorder becomes a bit of a device commonly used by ghost hunters to communicate with the dead. This is one aspect that's pulled from the lore of the games than directly from the games themselves.
Great video, as always you are very entertaining.
I wanted to ask if you could make a video about "Temple" 2017. i recently watched it and honestly did not understand anything toeards the ending, and there are no videos about it on TH-cam.
The blonde boy did such a good job being so young. I hope he gets so much more work in the future!
So as a fan of FNAF I can semi explain the come find me, that is specifically from FNAF2 with a character called the puppet, one of the most powerful fnaf characters out there for SAVE THEM, there were hints that Garett is the puppet so yes it’s Garett reaching out to find him, which is a reference also to fnaf one with a message it’s me in that game as well
Suuure
I think the "come find me" is Garret speaking to Mike. Not the other way around.
I was waiting for you to make a video on this movie. It's very interesting to hear what this movie sounds like from an outside perspective.
Dude I totally forgot about your show man I’m gonna watching most of your videos now
I took a friend to watch the movie and we loved it we aren't hardcore for fnaf but we know alot of the lore of the series and we overall enjoyed it
Shaggy went from finding the monsters to being one.
25:00 I think it's how Afton controls the Animatronics via "Sound Hypnodisk".
No lore? Somebody hasn’t been keeping up with MatPat’s decent into madness over the years
He said no gore not lore.
@@Kaiju_Queen94 oh, indeed not a lot of that in the games
Good job again as always. When I first heard the title of the game I thought Freddy was Freddy Krueger
It's definitely a good "Gateway" movie, my 7 Grandsons (ages 13 - 7) Loved getting to go with Nana to one of her Scary Movies 😁
It’s exciting to see Foundflix finally doing an Ending Explained video of the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie.
I genuine;y loved this video and movie and I would love so much to hear you explain the FnaF series as a whole tbh lol
There's security camera footage from outside Afton's career counselor office that shows this takes place in the year 2000.
Upon a second watching its interesting to watch Mike's first day with the dream in mind. We see the guard in the first night instead of Mike's dream so we just see Mike going about his day before we know about the dream.
I know you looked at Willy's Wonderland already, and now you've done FNAF. Have you done that Banana Splits movie too? I feel like you kinda HAVE to now - knock out all these animatronic horror movies that came out in the wake of FNAF's success. Besides, after this, it would be nice to see a movie that actually has more kills and violence than Five Nights at Freddys. I think it was a weird choice to keep it so kid-friendly, since - as you point out - it's been a LONG time since FNAF came out and the audience has grown up with it. I think they could handle a few more kills/jumpscares than this movie provides... luckily, it made a ton of money so I'm sure we'll see a movie sequel, and one that hopefully ups the horror.
I thought Willy's wonderland was pretty good since there wasn't a fnaf yet. How was it compared to this?
Oh, this is so funny. Reminds me of a comment that Matt pat left on a video of somebody playing for naff he’s like don’t do this to yourself. Haven’t gone mad yet.
Josh hutcherson really has come a long way from zathura rv bridge to teribithia. Nice to see him in this.
So, one thing I wanted to point out about the "Come find me" is that, while it is in the same voice as the death minigames from FNaF 2, it mirrors a line from a later FNaF game.
There's an ending cutscene from FNaF: Sister Location where Michael Afton is heard speaking to his father- not directly like in person but the same way you might see a movie character speak to their dead mom when they're in a tough spot in their life- explaining that he did what his father told him to do, that he should be dead but isn't, and there's only one thing left for him to do. He says, "I'm going to come find you," several times before Springtrap falls over into the scene.
So, to me, this is likely hinting at the possibility or likelihood of a FNaF 2 movie WHILE ALSO possibly hinting at the plot. Maybe a family member does go to come find him.
"Of course, it's ghost children in the suits. How else could they move the robots?" as if it's the most logical thing in the world. 😂
I wonder if they are going to go deep into the lore and the Purple Man and what they take from the newer FNAF games and lore from those.
