  • @nathanielmandrake1500

    I adore this movie and the plot behind it. The idea of the past victims helping Finney/being protagonists instead of the typical angry evil spirits harming innocent people was really nice for me. Seeing the kids do their best to make sure another kid doesn’t die is really emotional. The last phone call with Robin killed me.

    • @colinbaldwin313
      @colinbaldwin313 ปีที่แล้ว +82

      Yeah. That's what really makes it "a scary movie with a heart of gold." It's an inversion of sinister supernatural "hauntings." The ghosts are haunting Finney in order to save him from their own fate.

    I LOVED this movie. It focuses on the victims lives instead of the killer, which is super unique and in my opinion the right way to go. It then also opens up the possibility of a prequel, should they want to, showing why the grabber is who he is, the first kill, etc. Just amazing story telling all around.

  • @wingsofhope2

    That's cool as hell that they had the actors actually talk on the phone during the scenes. It also makes the last phone call even more badass considering you had all 5 boys taunting the killer on the phone before he gets his neck snapped.

During the scene where the killer is sitting in the chair with his belt in his hand, and wearing a belt, one of my friends remarked “he’s dual wielding” and the mom in front of us started laughing. The energy from the audience when the end scene of the killer getting killed was absolutely impeccable. Someone in the front row was yelling “that’s my boy!”

      I wouldn’t say he would’ve _never_ gotten caught, since serial killers’ endless bloodlust always results in sloppy kills, giving authorities more and more evidence to work with. However, if the kid hadn’t killed him, many more children would’ve died before he was caught.
