If it's two different kinds, strawberry jelly and grape jelly, then the strawberry flavored one is jelly-side down and the Devil is near... (since it's the color of blood)
So the flipped image of the city wasn't to represent that the city was pointing downwards, thus showing how it is moving closer to hell, no, it was to represent the jelly-side down toast. What a load...
Let’s face it. The Hispanic Security guard being the one that’s possessed by Satan would have been A MUCH better ending. He manipulates the old woman’s corpse to make it look like it’s her killing everyone. Then when the police open the door her dead body falls down showing she’s still dead. Everyone rushes down to help the victims. Now left alone in the security room the security guard slowly smiles, lets out a slightly defeated sigh and mutters “Damn...and I wanted him too.” He deletes all of the security footage of the entire event making everybody that hears the witnesses stories think they’ve lost their minds. He slowly stands up and straightens his tie. Walks towards the door when the lights flicker one last time he disappears without a trace. That would have made a way better ending.
Indeed, especially because some of the faults could be explained away, like the line about posing in photos, "Look, it's an unintended side effect of my presence. You think I choose to do that? That would be amazingly stupid. It's an unintended side effect that I didn't foresee until humanity invented cameras. God is the one with Omniscience not me. "
It's almost like a good twist has clues naturally woven into the story that makes you view the whole thing in a new way WITHOUT making the story boring on multiple viewings now that the twist is revealed.
Crazy toast guy being the devil would have been a great twist. You could even let him have a great speech at the end with something like “you were prepared to kill each other for being the devil over a piece of toast, you’d take any justification to kill each other” It’d also make the devil’s motivation much more sensible. You could have it so he was trying to persuade the cop to kill the last guy standing and make *him* look like the devil, so when the cop killed him he would get the cop’s soul in the end. So he’s not there to kill people or take the souls of sinners, he’s trying to trick people into sinning who otherwise wouldn’t. When the cop ultimately decides he can’t take the step of killing him, even though he’s convinced he’s possessed, the toast guy says “Dang, that’s too bad” and walks away.
I wonder if that would work out for him to pray until the people in the elevator attacks one another. Because in movies featuring exorcisms would usually have the devil/demonic demon having a fit after the first two or three words
@@GBmovieluv well in proper/real exorcism, the person needs true faith in the words being spoken and the Christian God. So the devil could probably speak them harmlessly
Well in the movie there's an obvious clue...the old woman's death was the least bloody and gruesome. She's just hung instead of a slit throat or broken neck.
I hope Malcolm never leaves Nostalgia Critic and Tamara, he is one of the best actors between them and one of the funniest. If he leaves, we are fucked right in the down under.
+{ Retro } He was the one in the black and red suit. You should watch more nostalgia critic videos if you get the chance. The way Nostalgia Critic makes the reviews but also does his own similar thing is cool. Malcolm is in a lot of the videos.
Holy shit the religious guy should have been the devil. Think about it, the last man standing in the elevator, elevator starts moving again towards ground floor. The cop would have left the control room and ran to meet the elevator. Right before the elevator doors open, the light could flicker again and the guy inside could have been hung like the old lady was. The doors open to the police and the detectives waiting outside, completely confused. cut back to the little mexican guy in the control room by himself, where he's been all along. His eyes turn black, the lights flicker in the control room and he's gone. Much better twist.
Josh C *crowd boos* yes yes I know but hear me out. Him sitting in his office and he eats a piece of toast while saying "hehe jelly side down" while chuckling and then your stuff happens
Everyone would've complained that there's no closure,this gives people the feeling that confessing makes you untouchable and a sense of a happy ending because the cop forgave his family's killer
Now that I think about it, Critic was right. They should of never mentioned that the Devil was involved. It would of been a better twist and would of left a bigger impact. With that being said, they should of changed the title too. Call it something like "Isolated." That would of hide the fact that the devil had any involvement until the end. It would of been mind blowing. Though his other suggestion that the devil would of been the religious guy would of been even better.
They shouldent even say it's the devil at the end. Just make it subtle though the whole movie. Give lil hints to a certain character that all lines up with the devil and never in the movie never decisively say it was him
I can actually imagine it all being better if it was the religious guy, like the ending is instead where almost everyone in the elevator is dead except for the last guy, the elevator lowers to one of the floors but stays closed, everybody leaves to go get the guy in the elevator except for the religious guy, he then reveals he is the Devil to the guy left alive and then leaves. Thus the guy is blamed as the killer and arrested, so in the end the people killed are dragged to hell and the last guy is arrested and put in jail for the rest of his life as he is blamed as the only possible culprit.
Imagine if they used the jelly side down test in the exorcist I see it now Marcus:she might be possessed *drops jelly toast ,lands jelly side up* Marcus: oh no,my mistake *leaves the floating demon person*
Wait. As we all know, Santa Christ knows when you are sleeping, he know when you're awake, but more to the point here, he knows if you've been bad or good, so he would have known who the killer was from the start And the Devil was constantly saying that Shyamalan had made good choices, which only Shyamalan would do. That's it, Nostalgia critic, when making fun of Shyamalan did a better job of providing a twist than Shyamalan did.
Timothy Creighton I’m glad that someone pointed this out, because I was beginning to worry that no one else caught this. The clues were how the characters themselves were reacting to the film, like how the Critic said that in the Sixth Sense, there were clues all over making it so the twist made sense. Watching this episode back and knowing the twist, it really is interesting to see those little but crucial details that make the reveal all the more interesting
333 is suppose to be the number of the "witching hour" and a mockery to the phase "The father, the son and the holy ghost" as demons usually do things in 3's (such as scratching someone with three claw marks or knocking three times) as a way to mock those things. That being said... it should of been 666. That is the DEVIL'S number after all, not his minions mocking the holy trinity.
Actually, the twist in the review made sense. Malcolm (The Devil, secretly Shyamalan) was the only one giving Devil a chance at the beginning, and Santa Christ was acting odd the whole time, more aggressive than he usually is (because he's actually The Devil). And Evilina pretending to be the security guard made sense too, as The Devil knew Shyamalan was in that elevator somewhere, and he needed her to stop the elevator from working. The review's twist made more sense than Shyamalan's.
"Santa Christ" also cheerfully greeted "the lift guy", being a father proud of his daughter's impression. Additionally, "the lift guy" was Evilina, the Devil's child - somewhat like the Critic's suggestion that the crazy toast guy, who was watching the people in the lift, should have been the Devil.
Looking back, Devil being Santa Christ and Shyamalan being the Devil was actually foreshadowed pretty well. First off, who initiated the Devil discussion? SC with his screenplay. One that was identical to Devil, and then reinforced by the "maintenance guy". And the jelly toast thing? Satan was in that elevator, yeah, but after we knew the devil wasn't the devil who did that leave? SC. Or Rita but no one wanted that. Second, anyone who knew the movie or saw enough of the review knew that one of the people already dead would turn out to be the evil demon, in this case Shyamalan posing as Devil. Were we ever supposed to believe that Satan would die so easily? Nope. Meaning the seed of suspicion was planted. Third, the characters alone. Devil was cheesy, strange and clearly not himself with all these not-devilish details from the film. And SC mocked the movie fluidly and easily (despite not knowing it and writing an identical screenplay) and he even makes that comment to "goyt" at the start as if to reaffirm he didn't know them. This whole setup was well done, and only in hindsight can I see where it all was leading up to.
The Devil pretending to be killed by the Devil only to reveal that he was the Devil all along wouldn't be so bad after all. Or Shyamalan revealing he is actually Santa Christ, NC being actually Shyamalan (all plan of his deception to watch the movie), Rita being NC, who went down in the beginning and the elevator guy being the Devil. Oh and the Santa Christ we saw was actually Cthullu, trying to get the attention to himself.
I just noticed an actually pretty cool bit of symbolism showing who the Devil in the movie is. When they're getting into the elevator, the woman is the only one reflected in the mirror.
@@adrianroque6990 I think he means 6:03. The camera is shot slightly angled so it only reflects the woman. Doesn't look very symbolic or foreshadowing to me though. Just shot in a way that doesn't show the camera.
Doom Hunter Hải Triều Liên Thanh No, "Santa Christ" being the Devil and "the Devil" being Shyamalan. Throughout, "Santa Christ" is surprisingly aggressive, almost to the point of being out of character, especially during the toast scene. He was also friendly toward the guard, as he knew the guard was really his daughter putting on a voice. Finally, he knew all along who the killer was ("I was waiting for him to reveal himself") because the Santa side of "Santa Christ" knows who's naughty and who's nice. Meanwhile, "the Devil" sides against the Critic, in keeping with his (Shyamalan's) rivalry with the reviewer. He also defends the movie, saying it represents the Devil well and that the toast test is plausible, showing how he admires his creation far more than it deserves. Little ticks and differences in the characters' behaviours hint at the final revelation that they weren't who we thought they were the whole time. A much better mystery and twist than that of _Devil._
Jennifer Ruballos Why does that line from Face/Off that John Travolta says at 21:53, sounds like Jessie Eisenberg playing Lex Luther in Batman v. Superman
2:58 Adding in to the twist that the Devil was secretly Shyamalan this whole time, when the elevator inspector was asking the crew if they want to see the movie, the "Devil" is the only one that's not screaming "NOOOOOOO!" like the others. After rewatching the review just now, I never noticed that detail.
SC: This was the first of the series of films they were supposed to work on. Devil: Why aren't there more? SC: 'Cause the first one was Devil' - much like The Mummy 2017/ dark universe
Frankly I was gonna like this comment until you HAD to ruin it by declaring this was a good pun. Like, thank you Sherlock, couldn't have figured that out myself.
I just remember seeing the trailer for this film and everyone was getting really excited, it looked like such a cool movie and then... "from M. Night Shamalan" and everyone in the theatre audibly groaned.
*Girl floats in mid air, eyes are bleeding, say satanic stuff* Me: *grabs toast with jelly on it and drops it* *Bread lands jelly side up* Me:Oh she not possessed after all. She just on her period.
Stairs kill 1,600 people yearly. Elevators kill about 15 (like FD2) Escalators, about 27. But the FD3 version is just STUPID. There are NO GEARS in the middle and it doesn't take 10 minutes! Sew the Chinese woman who got eaten by one. .scary af b/c nobody raises their voice and it's not even bloody.
Many of my favorite sketches in your reviews are the ones featuring your pops as a character, even if it's just for a quick little bit with no dialogue, like the "Jelly side doooowwwwn!" bit in this review. No matter what he's in, it's always obvious that he's just having a blast being a part of this with you guys - his fun is always infectious :) That one video you guys made interviewing him briefly where he says he's having a great time and how happy he is that he "gets to play with his kids again" was really touching.

Why would the devil kill people with criminal backgrounds? Wouldn't he rather keep them in the world to cause more problems for everyone else? Showing that there's punishment for sin, makes less people want to sin.
The Devil was never the bad guy. Same with Hades. The devil was put up to his deeds by God. Tempting Jesus with bread, a test to prove his love for God. Don’t even have to mention why Hades was the good guy, ever in history. There are so many other moments that prove the devil was the good guy.
Why is it that the devil always gets people that are already sinful in movies? The goal of the devil is to corrupt the good, not punish the evil. Nobody ever seems to get that right. That would be a good horror movie; a normal, good person being corrupted and driven into madness and depravity by constant demonic torment.
Aidan Lappin In the typical hollywood sense, he is basically good. But the typical hollywood sense is very rarely anything like the actual biblical devil.
I personally like the granny twist, but only because when the elevator goes dark I like imagining her hunching down and chewing on people or breaking windows.
It would have been way cooler if the movie was called “Elevator 6” and the killer was just a human hiding above the elevator. That would’ve been pretty good.
I didn't mind the supernatural elements as I don't think it detracted from the suspense but the movie would have been much more suspenseful if it had all taken place in the elevator, giving a real sense of claustrophobia, rather than only small scenes and much of the rest happening in large open spaces. The trouble is the story is told from the perspective of those outside looking in and it doesn't feel immersive enough; we're watching people watching people who are in trouble, not exactly edge of your seat stuff.
My sentiment exactly. You could even keep the parts where security and the detective are speaking to them through the intercom, just without showing any of it.
The interesting thing perhaps, when I first saw this movie it was on Premium Cable... and I missed like the first 2 minutes of the movie. So I had no idea it was called Devil, didn't see the opening credits, etc, but just came into it when the Cop was tracing the Bread Truck back to the building. ... that... significantly cuts away from a lot of the critique in this review. I didn't "know" it was The Devil. Or anything about it. And overall, I ended up enjoying the movie. However you are right about the "people watching people". Or rather... parts of it. Like the Security Guard being sent to fix the power down in the dark boiler room style place. That was probably my least favorite part of the movie on first viewing. It was such a seeming Tangent, and poorly linked in, seemingly done merely to get the scene of the Security Guard collapsing near the Firefighters. In terms of people watching the security monitors? I actually kinda liked it. It's suspense because it's putting them in a position of being powerless. They can't get to the trouble, bad things are happening, and they don't know how to stop it. Very classic in that regard. As well as framing up the mystery of who everyone in the Elevator actually was.
+ArcturusV How does missing the title cut away a lot of the critique of this review? Did you only watch a little bit of the review to say such a nonsensical thing.
+ArcturusV nope, it is because the movie that is A large point, but by no means the significant amount. it was how the movie straight up told the audience, not just the title. pay better attention next time. I am being a bit rude because I hate it when people disagree with on thing from a critique and ignore the rest of the valid criticism
Just thought of a much better title: Descent, as it has a literal term, going down in an elevator, and a figurative term, as in a Descent into madness. You may now applaud, for I have better titles than any other director!!!
@@SketchTurnerZero Actually I'm surprised noone else have mentioned it. The whole idea "people are stuck together and someone kills them for old crimes" looks just like the book.
Pardon my ignorance but doesn't bread usually drop jelly side down? I mean the extra weight on the jelly side should tilt it in that position regardless unless I'm missing something
Yeah I get that but it's not just an unbelievably stupid plot point. even if I buy the notion that the devil can be spotted with toast it still doesn't explain why this "freak incident" happens all the time everywhere in the world
+Yotam Shitrit the bread have equal chances to fall on each of it's sides because (warning: science) the center of rotation is the center of mass so there is no torque that push it to fall jelly side down (except for Murphy's law). so statistically the devil is there 50% of the time.
Here's an easy one, force everyone in the elevator to stand in a ring and hold hands. The next time the power goes out everyone must stand perfectly still until it comes back on, the culprit will have to either hold on to hide their identity and thus be unable to kill, or they will let go in order to kill and the person next to them will out them as the killer. If they kill the person next to them, then only two people COULD be the killer, and the other people holding the suspects' hands can vouch for whether or not they moved.
Well if they didn't go with the stupid twist in this movie and a human being in the elevator was the killer, then that would mean the people holding the killer's hands would feel them pull away and call them out as the murderer. With a regular human killer, it would literally be impossible for them to not get caught. Either they hold hands and get awaqy with their first kill, or they kill again and cat called out by the people whose hands they were supposed to be holding. Even if they only used one hand and killed one person next to them, the other would be able to feel them moving.
Kurgo I honestly thought it was going to be the business guy, that was probably just because he died first and he's super annoying. Just seems like they would be so stupid as to make the devil the most annoying character in the movie. Ether way this movie sucks
@@pridefulnamelesshunter1145 Who said they didn't try to be clever? They did put some subtle foreshadowing as to the actual identity of "The devil". Have you noticed how he kept protecting the movie? That's totally would Shyamalan would do.
I think a better twist would've been if the last person to walk out of the elevator wasn't the killer, they defended themselves in the dark against the real killer and killed them, but the police assume that the innocent person is the killer since they were the only person left alive in the elevator and assumed that it was them. Just my idea. Anyone else?
But how could you show who was and wasn't the killer? I guess you could have the movie from the killers perspective from the get-go, but I figure that'd ruin the suspense.
No, and dialogue wouldn't be the way to go, all I would do is have the person have a look of relief on their face since it's over, not satisfaction or cold indifference which is commonly associated with serial killers, and as the police are arresting them for murder they're screaming out their innocence as their being taken away and the last shot in the movie would be from the person's perspective as they're being dragged away, with the camera dead center on the body of the killer in the elevator.
+Kcdmgirl I was thinking it would be a good twist if the killer was the second to die. Their act of killing someone caused a bloodbath of their own death and others. Would be cool to show how far people will go if they think their life is in danger. Still thinking about how to show they were the killer though.

Mark P will be hard to beat. Dude absolutely killed that role. Despite the writing which weakened the character in later seasons. Not even a mention of the portrayal on the show Lucifer tho?
Making a twist unpredictable doesn't make it good. Making a twist make sense makes it good. If it makes sense in hindsight, but was unpredictable at the time, then it's great. That's why they need to firmly establish the rules of their universe; so we can know whether a twist makes sense in the story. Also, the jelly side of toast is fractionally heavier than the blank side. Toast ALWAYS lands jelly-side-down.
I think it would have been *slightly* better if they made the business guy in the suit the devil. he was manipulative by convincing granny to do what he wants her to do and acts that he knows a person when he looks at him/her. much like the devil.
You can tell the granny was the devil because she rolled her eyes when the suit twat claimed he was some hotshot salesman. The devil is supposed to be the ultimate salesman.
I remember seeing this trailer in theaters with my friends. At first everyone was intrigued, but once we saw M.Night Shamylans name on the screen, my friend stood up and shouted, "FALSE ALARM" and everyone laughed their ass off.
a much better twist would be if Tony was actually the killer, screwed up with with PTSD and multiple personalities from his time in the military, and he had no idea he was killing the others until there was no one left
"I am still the master of twists. If you could think up a better one for my movie, I'd like to hear it." Okay, here goes: The Devil says “Damn… I’m good.” Everything goes white. The last guy alive wakes up in a room strapped to a chair and connected to futuristic tech. The old “Devil” woman turns to the detective who glares silently at the man. Detective looks at her and asks, “Well?” She tells him, “I got the confession.” He doesn’t smile, just continues to glare at the man who killed his family. The detective arrests the man. End credits.
Y'know, the premise reminds me of Agatha Christie's best selling novel "And Then There Were None" where x number of criminals are trapped in one place and picked off one by one and a religous person. The only difference is the good writing, the suspense, and well, everything that made ATTWN a good book.
Not saying it's a bad book (far from it), and not saying I'm smart or anything (in fact, I'm quite dumb when it comes to mysteries) but I honestly guessed who's the murderer from the *VERY* start of the book!!! and it's not because of any plot analysis or attention to details: it's just one very simple logic SPOILERS At the beginning of the book where the radio began to announce the "crime" of each people....I wondered just how would the murderer knows all this information: ...I guess he/she must have some access to legal and criminal records.....*BAM* the judge is mastermind -_- (Agatha Christie is a great writer, but she really overlooked this very simple logic in this book!)
Do none of these people have a phone with a flashlight? I mean, it probably won't have solved much, the devil could probably make it go out too, I just want to know why?
The review failed to show it, but in the movie three of the guys do take their phones out to use as lights, but the devil takes them out of their hands and turns off the lights.
I have a solution, remove the devil sub plot, the old woman dies by having her head smashed into the glass, the man selling matrasses dies the same way, the guard could have his neck snapped the more traditional way and when the two at the end grab shards to defend themselves and they drop them they can notice that one of them has a scar on their hand from a glass shard but its on the wrong hand so they would have had to stabbed the other guy in the neck before to get It logically making them the killer and a fight breaks out while the cops try to get in and they do just before the last survivor is killed by the killer
"I can look at a person's clothes, and know exactly how much they can afford to spend." What if someone rich _donated_ their clothes and this lady got them from Goodwill?
Or much like the old Pixar Ceo, John Lasseter, who famously wore pretty much only tacky hawaiian shirts. Just because you're rich, it doesn't necessarily mean you always dress the part, especially since you don't always want to announce to the world that you're ballin', since obviously, that's like begging for someone to rob you. 🤷♀️ I mean, I try to make sure to look fabulous whenever in public, but I'm definitely not wealthy myself, I can tell you that, so. 😂
I may be overlooking into it but shakespeare used 333 to represent evil in his plays instead of the now used 666. Perhaps shyamalan just wanted to be artistic by using shakespeare or perhaps he's just an idiot.
According to the Wikipedia article: "The film was not screened to critics in advance." Heh, no wonder it sucked.They didn't want word out about the film's quality.
Apparently the "jelly side down" thing comes from medieval times when it was considered a sign of evil things if you dropped bread (by accident) and it landed on the jelly. This ruined the food, which would otherwise be picked up and eaten.
knowing how is stupid holiwood is, it probably based on the phrase "ya lo chupo el diablo" the devil already licked it which is nothing special and just means "dont eat shit off the floor", it sound like a reach but i woudlnt put it past them

To give the Hispanic guy credit, he was able to freakin' say the jelly side down line without holding back laughter or something
You have to wonder how many takes it took tho....lol
Or how much Valium :D
i say they should use a piece of toast that doesnt have a bite out of it
Michael Peña?
You know what's funny? Toast will ALWAYS land jelly side down, since it is the heavier side.
What if the toast has jelly on both sides? what happens then?
I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who thought of this! XD
I eat it, duh.
If it's two different kinds, strawberry jelly and grape jelly, then the strawberry flavored one is jelly-side down and the Devil is near... (since it's the color of blood)
Flying spaghetti monster!
Well then it lands sideways. That's when you know you're fucked.
So the flipped image of the city wasn't to represent that the city was pointing downwards, thus showing how it is moving closer to hell, no, it was to represent the jelly-side down toast. What a load...
I laughed waaaaay to hard.
That whole shot was entirely pointless
OH MY GODDD LOOOOOOL!!! XDDDD
Its feels like they just rough the ending out just so it matches the time limit
What a twist!
Let’s face it. The Hispanic Security guard being the one that’s possessed by Satan would have been A MUCH better ending.
He manipulates the old woman’s corpse to make it look like it’s her killing everyone. Then when the police open the door her dead body falls down showing she’s still dead. Everyone rushes down to help the victims. Now left alone in the security room the security guard slowly smiles, lets out a slightly defeated sigh and mutters “Damn...and I wanted him too.”
He deletes all of the security footage of the entire event making everybody that hears the witnesses stories think they’ve lost their minds. He slowly stands up and straightens his tie. Walks towards the door when the lights flicker one last time he disappears without a trace.
That would have made a way better ending.
that would have been amazing
YES OH
GOD YES
hell yeah. pun 100% intended, fricks 0O0% given.

Like when that ancient neigh omnipotent being tries to suck out your soul, get's a slap on the wrist: "bad thing, stop that."

Actually, in the episode, there were some good clues to the devil being Shamalan. The biggest being protecting the movie.
Indeed, especially because some of the faults could be explained away, like the line about posing in photos, "Look, it's an unintended side effect of my presence. You think I choose to do that? That would be amazingly stupid. It's an unintended side effect that I didn't foresee until humanity invented cameras. God is the one with Omniscience not me. "
Also...Santa Claus being the actual Devil in disguise.
I read this right as I got to 19:01
Never thought about that before.
Plus, don't forget that when they're going to play the movie for the review, the "Devil" is the only one that's not showing "NOOOOO" like the others.
It's almost like a good twist has clues naturally woven into the story that makes you view the whole thing in a new way WITHOUT making the story boring on multiple viewings now that the twist is revealed.
Hellevator would've been a better title choice.
Sounds like a "so bad its good" classic!!
M. Night Shyamalan presents......The Hellevator!!!!! Lighting in the background, MWAHAHA!!!
There is actually a show called Hellevator.
Fuck.
But that's a Terraria teeeeerm
Crazy toast guy being the devil would have been a great twist. You could even let him have a great speech at the end with something like “you were prepared to kill each other for being the devil over a piece of toast, you’d take any justification to kill each other”
It’d also make the devil’s motivation much more sensible. You could have it so he was trying to persuade the cop to kill the last guy standing and make *him* look like the devil, so when the cop killed him he would get the cop’s soul in the end. So he’s not there to kill people or take the souls of sinners, he’s trying to trick people into sinning who otherwise wouldn’t.
When the cop ultimately decides he can’t take the step of killing him, even though he’s convinced he’s possessed, the toast guy says “Dang, that’s too bad” and walks away.
Fuck that would have been awesome
Oh my god that would have been amazing, your a much better writer than M.night Shamylan.
@@obiwankenobi9141 sadly, at this point, i think ALL of us can be a better writer than M. Night shyamalamadingdong
I wonder if that would work out for him to pray until the people in the elevator attacks one another. Because in movies featuring exorcisms would usually have the devil/demonic demon having a fit after the first two or three words
@@GBmovieluv well in proper/real exorcism, the person needs true faith in the words being spoken and the Christian God. So the devil could probably speak them harmlessly

To be fair, there actually was a pretty big clue to The Devil's identity.
He was defending the movie.
Also, Santa Christ was more aggressive, particularly at the toast.
So at the end Critic wrote a better twist than Shamalayan (don't know how to really write his name). What a cool piece of critic.
Psychronia Stick past the credits for another twist

Well in the movie there's an obvious clue...the old woman's death was the least bloody and gruesome. She's just hung instead of a slit throat or broken neck.

+{ Retro } He was the one in the black and red suit. You should watch more nostalgia critic videos if you get the chance. The way Nostalgia Critic makes the reviews but also does his own similar thing is cool. Malcolm is in a lot of the videos.
Malcolm is definitely my favorite. :)
Malcolm is one of my favorites besides Tamara.
So the point of the movie was... to use stairs?
Yes
Don't drop your jelly-covered toast.
And the point of "Happy Feet" was... don't eat fish because the penguins are starving.
Yes, always use the stairs and you'll be healthier, do a lot of exercise, avoid the Devil and ruin your knees.
No you fucking idiot, it was a sequel to A Bug's Life.
Holy shit the religious guy should have been the devil. Think about it, the last man standing in the elevator, elevator starts moving again towards ground floor. The cop would have left the control room and ran to meet the elevator. Right before the elevator doors open, the light could flicker again and the guy inside could have been hung like the old lady was. The doors open to the police and the detectives waiting outside, completely confused. cut back to the little mexican guy in the control room by himself, where he's been all along. His eyes turn black, the lights flicker in the control room and he's gone. Much better twist.

Now that I think about it, Critic was right. They should of never mentioned that the Devil was involved. It would of been a better twist and would of left a bigger impact. With that being said, they should of changed the title too. Call it something like "Isolated." That would of hide the fact that the devil had any involvement until the end. It would of been mind blowing. Though his other suggestion that the devil would of been the religious guy would of been even better.
They shouldent even say it's the devil at the end. Just make it subtle though the whole movie. Give lil hints to a certain character that all lines up with the devil and never in the movie never decisively say it was him
It could also have been titled "Trapped"
I can actually imagine it all being better if it was the religious guy, like the ending is instead where almost everyone in the elevator is dead except for the last guy, the elevator lowers to one of the floors but stays closed, everybody leaves to go get the guy in the elevator except for the religious guy, he then reveals he is the Devil to the guy left alive and then leaves. Thus the guy is blamed as the killer and arrested, so in the end the people killed are dragged to hell and the last guy is arrested and put in jail for the rest of his life as he is blamed as the only possible culprit.
Destructive winds that is a much better ending
I reckon that should've called it 'hellevator'
Ironically, the devil *wasn't* in the details.

Wait. As we all know, Santa Christ knows when you are sleeping, he know when you're awake, but more to the point here, he knows if you've been bad or good, so he would have known who the killer was from the start
And the Devil was constantly saying that Shyamalan had made good choices, which only Shyamalan would do. That's it, Nostalgia critic, when making fun of Shyamalan did a better job of providing a twist than Shyamalan did.
Also, Santa Christ cheerfully said hi to the elevator operator, who turned out to be Evilina. Santa Christ turned out to be the Devil...
Timothy Creighton I’m glad that someone pointed this out, because I was beginning to worry that no one else caught this. The clues were how the characters themselves were reacting to the film, like how the Critic said that in the Sixth Sense, there were clues all over making it so the twist made sense. Watching this episode back and knowing the twist, it really is interesting to see those little but crucial details that make the reveal all the more interesting
He knows who's bad and good. Rita and the Devil are already bad and the Critic isn't exactly good on average.
Oh my Arceus, my mind is blown.
Flack Jacket might I interest you in the teachings of Volcarona the actual Pokemon god?
333 is suppose to be the number of the "witching hour" and a mockery to the phase "The father, the son and the holy ghost" as demons usually do things in 3's (such as scratching someone with three claw marks or knocking three times) as a way to mock those things. That being said... it should of been 666. That is the DEVIL'S number after all, not his minions mocking the holy trinity.
The demons work for god and jesus was just a mentali il person. No need to mock him
True
I always heard 333 was the number of the angels though. But 3am IS the witching hour as it seems paranormal activity occurs most commonly then.
The "Devils number" is actually 616
@@spaomalleyI've heard it depends on the translation
Actually, the twist in the review made sense. Malcolm (The Devil, secretly Shyamalan) was the only one giving Devil a chance at the beginning, and Santa Christ was acting odd the whole time, more aggressive than he usually is (because he's actually The Devil). And Evilina pretending to be the security guard made sense too, as The Devil knew Shyamalan was in that elevator somewhere, and he needed her to stop the elevator from working. The review's twist made more sense than Shyamalan's.
also he still follwed the movies structure in his own way as the second person to die was the twist bad guy
"Santa Christ" also cheerfully greeted "the lift guy", being a father proud of his daughter's impression.
Additionally, "the lift guy" was Evilina, the Devil's child - somewhat like the Critic's suggestion that the crazy toast guy, who was watching the people in the lift, should have been the Devil.
Plus, at 2:58, the "Devil" (Shyamalan) is the only one that's not saying "NOOOO" like the others.
Lmao 🤣
“But people love Cthulhu.”
Santa Christ -20th Century.
Should've been our first clue that he was Malcolm
@Ulysses Fontaine
Off to R’lyeh!
😂😂😂😂😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣
Looking back, Devil being Santa Christ and Shyamalan being the Devil was actually foreshadowed pretty well.
First off, who initiated the Devil discussion? SC with his screenplay. One that was identical to Devil, and then reinforced by the "maintenance guy". And the jelly toast thing? Satan was in that elevator, yeah, but after we knew the devil wasn't the devil who did that leave? SC. Or Rita but no one wanted that.
Second, anyone who knew the movie or saw enough of the review knew that one of the people already dead would turn out to be the evil demon, in this case Shyamalan posing as Devil. Were we ever supposed to believe that Satan would die so easily? Nope. Meaning the seed of suspicion was planted.
Third, the characters alone. Devil was cheesy, strange and clearly not himself with all these not-devilish details from the film. And SC mocked the movie fluidly and easily (despite not knowing it and writing an identical screenplay) and he even makes that comment to "goyt" at the start as if to reaffirm he didn't know them.
This whole setup was well done, and only in hindsight can I see where it all was leading up to.
Nathan Deaton And what do you know, Rita turned out to be Cthulhu in disguise.
but when out to pester Linkara instead of critic. i miss teddy ruxpin
Nathan Deaton Forth, he was the only one defending the movie
Yeah sorry no the twist was obvious from a mile away
It was a bad twist
The Devil pretending to be killed by the Devil only to reveal that he was the Devil all along wouldn't be so bad after all.
Or Shyamalan revealing he is actually Santa Christ, NC being actually Shyamalan (all plan of his deception to watch the movie), Rita being NC, who went down in the beginning and the elevator guy being the Devil. Oh and the Santa Christ we saw was actually Cthullu, trying to get the attention to himself.
“Hey are people killing one another in there??”
“Yeah”
“Stop that”
I just noticed an actually pretty cool bit of symbolism showing who the Devil in the movie is. When they're getting into the elevator, the woman is the only one reflected in the mirror.
Miles Zimmer-Benz huh
I...honestly don't see what you're talking about
@@adrianroque6990 I think he means 6:03. The camera is shot slightly angled so it only reflects the woman. Doesn't look very symbolic or foreshadowing to me though. Just shot in a way that doesn't show the camera.
@@armsofzeus Also the woman is clearly visible in the mirror a few seconds later.
......Why would the devil have a reflection when someone that isn't the devil doesn't? Like, I see what you're saying, but that confuses me.
I love how this review has a better twist than the fucking movie.
Jennifer Ruballos yah it was Cthulhu

No, "Santa Christ" being the Devil and "the Devil" being Shyamalan.
Throughout, "Santa Christ" is surprisingly aggressive, almost to the point of being out of character, especially during the toast scene. He was also friendly toward the guard, as he knew the guard was really his daughter putting on a voice. Finally, he knew all along who the killer was ("I was waiting for him to reveal himself") because the Santa side of "Santa Christ" knows who's naughty and who's nice.
Meanwhile, "the Devil" sides against the Critic, in keeping with his (Shyamalan's) rivalry with the reviewer. He also defends the movie, saying it represents the Devil well and that the toast test is plausible, showing how he admires his creation far more than it deserves.
Little ticks and differences in the characters' behaviours hint at the final revelation that they weren't who we thought they were the whole time. A much better mystery and twist than that of _Devil._
Jennifer Ruballos Why does that line from Face/Off that John Travolta says at 21:53, sounds like Jessie Eisenberg playing Lex Luther in Batman v. Superman
I like malcom. I haven't yet seen a character he does that hasn't been enjoyable.
JayRLetton As Bill would say: "Hm-hm!"
2:58 Adding in to the twist that the Devil was secretly Shyamalan this whole time, when the elevator inspector was asking the crew if they want to see the movie, the "Devil" is the only one that's not screaming "NOOOOOOO!" like the others. After rewatching the review just now, I never noticed that detail.
Same
And when they say nooo again he looks angry
SC: This was the first of the series of films they were supposed to work on.
Devil: Why aren't there more?
SC: 'Cause the first one was Devil'
- much like The Mummy 2017/ dark universe

Why would the devil kill people with criminal backgrounds? Wouldn't he rather keep them in the world to cause more problems for everyone else? Showing that there's punishment for sin, makes less people want to sin.

The Devil was never the bad guy. Same with Hades. The devil was put up to his deeds by God. Tempting Jesus with bread, a test to prove his love for God. Don’t even have to mention why Hades was the good guy, ever in history.
There are so many other moments that prove the devil was the good guy.
Why is it that the devil always gets people that are already sinful in movies? The goal of the devil is to corrupt the good, not punish the evil. Nobody ever seems to get that right. That would be a good horror movie; a normal, good person being corrupted and driven into madness and depravity by constant demonic torment.
Aidan Lappin In the typical hollywood sense, he is basically good. But the typical hollywood sense is very rarely anything like the actual biblical devil.

I personally like the granny twist, but only because when the elevator goes dark I like imagining her hunching down and chewing on people or breaking windows.
It would have been way cooler if the movie was called “Elevator 6” and the killer was just a human hiding above the elevator. That would’ve been pretty good.

I didn't mind the supernatural elements as I don't think it detracted from the suspense but the movie would have been much more suspenseful if it had all taken place in the elevator, giving a real sense of claustrophobia, rather than only small scenes and much of the rest happening in large open spaces. The trouble is the story is told from the perspective of those outside looking in and it doesn't feel immersive enough; we're watching people watching people who are in trouble, not exactly edge of your seat stuff.
My sentiment exactly. You could even keep the parts where security and the detective are speaking to them through the intercom, just without showing any of it.
The interesting thing perhaps, when I first saw this movie it was on Premium Cable... and I missed like the first 2 minutes of the movie. So I had no idea it was called Devil, didn't see the opening credits, etc, but just came into it when the Cop was tracing the Bread Truck back to the building.
... that... significantly cuts away from a lot of the critique in this review. I didn't "know" it was The Devil. Or anything about it. And overall, I ended up enjoying the movie.
However you are right about the "people watching people". Or rather... parts of it. Like the Security Guard being sent to fix the power down in the dark boiler room style place. That was probably my least favorite part of the movie on first viewing. It was such a seeming Tangent, and poorly linked in, seemingly done merely to get the scene of the Security Guard collapsing near the Firefighters.
In terms of people watching the security monitors? I actually kinda liked it. It's suspense because it's putting them in a position of being powerless. They can't get to the trouble, bad things are happening, and they don't know how to stop it. Very classic in that regard. As well as framing up the mystery of who everyone in the Elevator actually was.
+ArcturusV How does missing the title cut away a lot of the critique of this review? Did you only watch a little bit of the review to say such a nonsensical thing.
Because a lot of the critique comes from "You called your movie DEVIL!", the suspense and mystery, the misdirections, etc, is all ruined by the title.
+ArcturusV nope, it is because the movie that is A large point, but by no means the significant amount. it was how the movie straight up told the audience, not just the title. pay better attention next time. I am being a bit rude because I hate it when people disagree with on thing from a critique and ignore the rest of the valid criticism
Just thought of a much better title: Descent, as it has a literal term, going down in an elevator, and a figurative term, as in a Descent into madness. You may now applaud, for I have better titles than any other director!!!
That's already the name of a really good horror movie already I'm afraid.
You should be a content creator,you have great potential
Personally I would have gone for "claustrophobia", but that works much better.

Pardon my ignorance but doesn't bread usually drop jelly side down? I mean the extra weight on the jelly side should tilt it in that position regardless unless I'm missing something
The idea of jelly-side down toast indicating the devils presence is the issue.
Yeah I get that but it's not just an unbelievably stupid plot point. even if I buy the notion that the devil can be spotted with toast it still doesn't explain why this "freak incident" happens all the time everywhere in the world
+WillWrath328 I guess the devil is always present?
ASK ME WHAT IT MEANS
+Yotam Shitrit the bread have equal chances to fall on each of it's sides because (warning: science) the center of rotation is the center of mass so there is no torque that push it to fall jelly side down (except for Murphy's law). so statistically the devil is there 50% of the time.
santa-christ saying "screenpray" instead of screenplay is legit a great lowkey joke that I did not catch the first few times I watched this.
..... I’ve watched this since it was first uploaded and never noticed that!!
The whole elevator being The Devil would've been a better twist
I don’t put that past the director!
Here's an easy one, force everyone in the elevator to stand in a ring and hold hands. The next time the power goes out everyone must stand perfectly still until it comes back on, the culprit will have to either hold on to hide their identity and thus be unable to kill, or they will let go in order to kill and the person next to them will out them as the killer. If they kill the person next to them, then only two people COULD be the killer, and the other people holding the suspects' hands can vouch for whether or not they moved.
+Lunara Hunter
What if some one across from the suspected killer dies?
Well if they didn't go with the stupid twist in this movie and a human being in the elevator was the killer, then that would mean the people holding the killer's hands would feel them pull away and call them out as the murderer. With a regular human killer, it would literally be impossible for them to not get caught. Either they hold hands and get awaqy with their first kill, or they kill again and cat called out by the people whose hands they were supposed to be holding. Even if they only used one hand and killed one person next to them, the other would be able to feel them moving.
And what...
if someone has a THIRD arm???!!
WHAT A TWIST!
What if they had a knife in their shoes and they kicked people to death???
BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!

I think a better twist would've been if the last person to walk out of the elevator wasn't the killer, they defended themselves in the dark against the real killer and killed them, but the police assume that the innocent person is the killer since they were the only person left alive in the elevator and assumed that it was them. Just my idea. Anyone else?
Hey, great minds think alike right? :)
Holy shit, that sounds fucking amazing... Give her a production team, cameras, and the tools and crew that can make a masterpiece from that!! :D
But how could you show who was and wasn't the killer? I guess you could have the movie from the killers perspective from the get-go, but I figure that'd ruin the suspense.
No, and dialogue wouldn't be the way to go, all I would do is have the person have a look of relief on their face since it's over, not satisfaction or cold indifference which is commonly associated with serial killers, and as the police are arresting them for murder they're screaming out their innocence as their being taken away and the last shot in the movie would be from the person's perspective as they're being dragged away, with the camera dead center on the body of the killer in the elevator.
+Kcdmgirl I was thinking it would be a good twist if the killer was the second to die. Their act of killing someone caused a bloodbath of their own death and others. Would be cool to show how far people will go if they think their life is in danger. Still thinking about how to show they were the killer though.

Making a twist unpredictable doesn't make it good. Making a twist make sense makes it good. If it makes sense in hindsight, but was unpredictable at the time, then it's great.
That's why they need to firmly establish the rules of their universe; so we can know whether a twist makes sense in the story.
Also, the jelly side of toast is fractionally heavier than the blank side. Toast ALWAYS lands jelly-side-down.
Rotation is also important. In most cases the toast doesn't have the distance to make a full rotation.
I think it would have been *slightly* better if they made the business guy in the suit the devil. he was manipulative by convincing granny to do what he wants her to do and acts that he knows a person when he looks at him/her. much like the devil.
I like the twist with the granny cuz lets face it, the elderly tend to be pretty creepy in some movies
You can tell the granny was the devil because she rolled her eyes when the suit twat claimed he was some hotshot salesman. The devil is supposed to be the ultimate salesman.

They say when toast falls jelly side down, the Nostalgia Critic uploads the Devil review again.
What if toast had peanut butter and fell peanut butter side down ??? Then the Nostalgia Critic uploads the Passion of Christ review again.
+Dart One could only dream.
+Dart love the game your in.
Zavven Sadein childhood memories :3
he did that movie?
A good twist would've been if there was no devil and that
The Hispanic was just insane
Save it for Devil 2:elevator ascending
A good twist would have been them announcing that the film was being destroyed, E.T. Atari-style, but done right!
Some D-class is that a real movie movie
i've seen this review before but barely caught santa christ saying "don't let me poke you full of ho-ho-holes!" HAHA bravo guys! good one.
"I am still the master of twists. If you could think up a better one for my movie, I'd like to hear it."
Okay, here goes: The Devil says “Damn… I’m good.” Everything goes white. The last guy alive wakes up in a room strapped to a chair and connected to futuristic tech. The old “Devil” woman turns to the detective who glares silently at the man. Detective looks at her and asks, “Well?” She tells him, “I got the confession.” He doesn’t smile, just continues to glare at the man who killed his family.
The detective arrests the man.
End credits.
Damn, you're good!
That would be awesome!!! That’s fanscription worthy!!!!
Now THAT’s a twist!
Y'know, the premise reminds me of Agatha Christie's best selling novel "And Then There Were None" where x number of criminals are trapped in one place and picked off one by one and a religous person. The only difference is the good writing, the suspense, and well, everything that made ATTWN a good book.
Did I mention the mind-blowing twist?
Jamison Fawkes The only reason I know about that is because of a series on TH-cam called "Twelve little roosters"
Edit: It's Ten not twelve
Not saying it's a bad book (far from it), and not saying I'm smart or anything (in fact, I'm quite dumb when it comes to mysteries) but I honestly guessed who's the murderer from the *VERY* start of the book!!!
and it's not because of any plot analysis or attention to details: it's just one very simple logic
SPOILERS
At the beginning of the book where the radio began to announce the "crime" of each people....I wondered just how would the murderer knows all this information: ...I guess he/she must have some access to legal and criminal records.....*BAM* the judge is mastermind -_-
(Agatha Christie is a great writer, but she really overlooked this very simple logic in this book!)
Man, I didn't know it was halloween already
He is reploading this vid
Micheal's (craft store) already has Halloween decorations out! It's so strange!

"Hey! Are people killing another in there?"
"Yeah!"
"Stop that!"
LOL!
Critic: I'm going to buy a kitten!
*cut to six years later*
Chaplin arrives.
...and some time later, Buster!
Lmao 🤣
But...people love Cthulhu...
Anonymous Otaku it doesn't matter if people love Cthulhu! It doesn't fit into the story
Alberts Choise whoosh
bang bangtan army
This is easily one of the best episodes
But what if the toast has butter on it??? Dunt Dunt Ddddaaaaahhhhhhh !!!
Depends on the butter
Mr French soldier over here has a point. God help you if it’s I can’t believe it’s not butter. The devil hates I can’t believe it’s not butter.
If the Hispanic guard was the devil, that would've been brilliant. Meh.
It would’ve been a fucking horrible movie with a slightly less fucking horrible twist.
That nostalgia-ween intro is INCREDIBLE
Do none of these people have a phone with a flashlight? I mean, it probably won't have solved much, the devil could probably make it go out too, I just want to know why?
I mean, are *none* of them capable of hearing when it's dark? You would absolutely be able to hear the death of somebody a foot away from you.
The review failed to show it, but in the movie three of the guys do take their phones out to use as lights, but the devil takes them out of their hands and turns off the lights.
murdock283 do you have time So I can look it up?
Alberts Choise Can’t remember the time stamp, unfortunately.
This was made in 2010. Smartphones were kinda like Leprechauns. Very rare.
I have a solution, remove the devil sub plot, the old woman dies by having her head smashed into the glass, the man selling matrasses dies the same way, the guard could have his neck snapped the more traditional way and when the two at the end grab shards to defend themselves and they drop them they can notice that one of them has a scar on their hand from a glass shard but its on the wrong hand so they would have had to stabbed the other guy in the neck before to get It logically making them the killer and a fight breaks out while the cops try to get in and they do just before the last survivor is killed by the killer
"I can look at a person's clothes, and know exactly how much they can afford to spend."
What if someone rich _donated_ their clothes and this lady got them from Goodwill?
Or much like the old Pixar Ceo, John Lasseter, who famously wore pretty much only tacky hawaiian shirts. Just because you're rich, it doesn't necessarily mean you always dress the part, especially since you don't always want to announce to the world that you're ballin', since obviously, that's like begging for someone to rob you. 🤷♀️ I mean, I try to make sure to look fabulous whenever in public, but I'm definitely not wealthy myself, I can tell you that, so. 😂
Guys...I think Nostalgia Critic's Devil is the best devil portrayed. For me, atleast.
I may be overlooking into it but shakespeare used 333 to represent evil in his plays instead of the now used 666. Perhaps shyamalan just wanted to be artistic by using shakespeare or perhaps he's just an idiot.
Maybe both
According to the Wikipedia article: "The film was not screened to critics in advance." Heh, no wonder it sucked.They didn't want word out about the film's quality.
Apparently the "jelly side down" thing comes from medieval times when it was considered a sign of evil things if you dropped bread (by accident) and it landed on the jelly. This ruined the food, which would otherwise be picked up and eaten.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised considering how paranoid people were back then. But it's still eye-rolling
@@DrDolan2000 *an entire village panicking over the bread landing face down*
the one scientist at the time: *deep sigh* these guys are idiots...
knowing how is stupid holiwood is, it probably based on the phrase "ya lo chupo el diablo" the devil already licked it
which is nothing special and just means "dont eat shit off the floor", it sound like a reach but i woudlnt put it past them
The hit-and-run driver in the elevator looks like Discount Tom Hardy :)
16:10 Wait a minute... so if the devil is right there, wouldn't that make it obvious that NONE OF THEM WERE THE DEVIL???
Dave: We will get you out in a minute
Me: but we are only a minute in, in a 40 minute review
45 minute
"Bread truck with a dead guy embedded on it like Wile E. Coyote with a driver who seems to have disappeared off in the face of the Earth rolling backwards into oncoming traffic bouncing off cement blocks into a parking lot of somebody's store, man." - Nostalgic Critic, 2016 (5:32)
