She wasn't reunited with her grandmother at the end. She IS her grandmother. They said her grandmother was crazy and said she was from the future...as in 2020.
For me ghosts were the highpoint of the genre, because I like a good haunted house movie, but I hated the cult phase. Cults are such lame horror villains, because they’re just a group of people.
The psychological horrors that we see now are not too different from the ones they used to make in the 60's and 70's. Movie genres just come and go into fashion every 10 or 20 years just like clothes, music ecc.
I’d like to throw in a theory that she might be suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning. Most of her delusions and odd behaviour could be symptoms to slow, long term exposure to carbon monoxide. This could be hinted at by the fact it’s the first search option but is completely overlooked by both the viewer and the main character in favour of an answer that fits her narrative. The most simple answer is often the most overlooked.
Callsign: JoNay Carbon monoxide poisoning can affect people differently. Some people have a higher tolerance to it or show different symptoms. She could also be spending a lot of time in a room that has a direct source to the carbon monoxide and therefore is more affected by it.
That's all possible but there is nothing in the movie suggesting it other than the internet search, and nothing at all suggesting that she's more sensitive to carbon monoxide than a typical person. I'm sorry but I don't think it's a movie about CM poisoning.
Her grandmother kept saying that she was from the future. She realized that she was her grandmother. Maybe she really slept with Darren and gave birth to her mother. When she was beamed up she was transported to the 50s to be her grandmother. She is a loop person. She gives birth to her mother, dies, her mother gives birth to her. She jumps through time has sex with Darren getting pregnant with her mother again and being transported back to the 50s to do the cycle again. She's not crazy. Her grandmother wasn't crazy. Her mother was depressed from having her mother tell her all the time, I'm from the future, I'm your daughter, I gave birth to you, you're going to kill yourself, driving her to do it, continuing the cycle. her mother/daughter had to be raised by someone she thought was crazy. Which drove her to insanity.
btw time travel dosent work like that u cannot give birh to your own mother/father then magically expecting you to be born while u are already existing its called a mental illness her grandmother had and she also had but she killed her self and the rest being in her head ...
@@notoriousbig3k so how did molly Shannon see her then? It wasn't insanity. It's a huge time travel movie trope, being your own ancestor. She was actually time traveling. In the end she realized that she was her grandmother.
@@notoriousbig3k she did have hallucinations and delusions at times, probably because of incest. Darren is her grandfather. Her mother is her daughter. She is her own grandmother.
That girl she saw in the white and in the hospital was also her "roommate" when she left the hospital. She was yelling at her "where have you been, Where did you go?" Who was the real roommate ;)
Yeah thats what I was thinking too. He said in this review that Dr. Ethan whatever mentioned she was released from here already a few weeks ago but she didnt remember. Her being her roomate like you said makes sense. I was just thinking they had talked on her prior visit there, or doing the 2 days she blanked out they shared their experiences and both respectively forgot about sharing
knes167 thank you!! Ugh I was frustrated when he mentioned their conversation as being something that couldn’t be explained away by her mental illness. If she could conjure up the man in her dreams from merely passing him on the streets, then it’s just as likely that she also manifested the roommate from a previous stay. To me It does strongly suggest she is suffering from some mental illness, expect for two pieces of evidence; Joan seeing and confirming the existence of the horse outside the store, and her identical look to her grandmother who claimed to be from the future!
Never watched this movie but from your synopsis, this movie really does capture schizophrenia quite well. My mom suffers from it and during one of her lucid moments, she told me "I don't know what's real and what's not". That has always haunted me. The way she experiences reality isn't how it happens. It's extremely sad. She revolves her life around hidden meanings and rituals.
She is not sick or crazy....the movie is all ALLEGORY. Nothing you see is real. She is a soul in purgatory waiting to be reincarnated. Everything is Allegory for sex. She dresses like an egg. She goes down long hallways like the egg traveling the fallopian tubes. The whole movie is allegory. Completely.
I have pretty bad episodes psychosis and this movie does actually show a good representation of it. During most of my episodes I don't question that something seems off, like a circus once visited me in my bedroom and i was enjoying the show until children under my bed started begging me to help them
From the title of the movie, I thought it would be like the horse books I read as a kid... “Black Beauty”, “The Saddle Club”, etc. Hope no moms get this for their horse-obsessed daughters based only on the title...
The black fingers and their movement with the lady's body looks and sounds like sewing with a sewing machine....her reality is being skewed by her dillusions...I think she may have committed suicide at the end too, but we just see it from her mind's perspective. I'm losing my mind just trying to figure this one out lol
The entire movie could be her remembering everything in her last moments, with certain things muddled up. Maybe the reason the room mate at the clinic had talked to her about the other world she believes to exist and had forgotten doing so hence why she was so confused. This could then mean that the dreams occured in the peak of her break from reality, after she was told about the other world but she remembers all this muddled up. This could also be why we see time skips and things that are physically impossible for her to do, shes so broken from reality that she is bending details to justify her insanity and is forgetting certain days therefore further proving her to be correct
This is one of those I'm glad I watched before you released this vid. Was a good one! Another clue that she is time traveling is the first time she meets her social worker, he says they've met before but she doesn't remember. The NEXT time she meets him, she mentions they met before, but the social worker says this is the first time. So we got to see both meetings, that happened in different orders for each of them.
The thing with schizophrenia is time distortion like in Amazon's UNDONE, where the mind's understanding of time shifts from its chronological order. The way to describe it is that it's similar to deja-vu where you are convinced something you are witnessing has happened before and what's about to happen, happens. It's chemicals in your brain triggers emotive responses that mixes up feelings of familiarity with memories and your current senses.
@@andykww yes but available information to the protagonist, that changes her believes and outlook, don't become available until later in the story... i used to think it was just schizophrenia, but the more you pay attention to the order of events, the more time travel makes more sense. It's more than Deja Vu. She learns the name and face and voice of a specific person for her 1st time, before she meets the 1996 girl, before the idea of time travel is in her head and before she "knows what she has to do". At this point she is still unaware. The 2nd time is actually their 1st, chronology, yet she is using all of her aquired knowledge from the tv show to the girl to even her aquired knowledge of her meeting with the social worker. There are more details than what Found Flix mentioned, so i recommend checking out the movie if you haven't.
@@locke6854 The thing is, we are watching the movie from the perspective of a person who's illness distorts her perception of the flow of time and chain of events. For her(and us) its an A > B > C chain of events but that doesn't mean that in reality it went A > C > B. Thats the interesting aspect of the movie, and a big reason it's important that the vast majority of the film is from her perspective. Things don't make sense on purpose, and that ambiguity is the point. You are led to believe she might be travelling through time specifically because from her perspective(and ours, again) there is evidence of it(or at least contradictions that don't make sense).
I was really leaning toward mental illness especially with how serious that stuff is but the fact we saw the coworkers perspective and she saw that horse and reacted to it makes me go more towards the possibility of the time traveling and aliens
Or ...maybe the way they edited that part was linking the beginning of the movie with the ending...so maybe in the beginning she was looking at something else, but they show the horse as what she saw, which was she actually what saw at the end, ion know lol
I think that she might have invented the last bit. Another typical sign of schizophrenia is to reinterpret memories based upon their current beliefs; so it can be that she remembered when her coworker saw something and re-imagined it from her new prospective at the end and that in the beginning that was the first sign of her loosing her sanity and it wasn't really the point of view of her co-worker, she just imagined that it was (another sign of schizophrenia). I think it would make sense considering her past and the title of the movie that the first and last core factors to her "illness" history were both related to the horse. About the scratches she could very easily have done them herself, it is also another quite famous sign of schizotipic behaviour.
i like the Joan character. she represents well-meaning ppl who don't know how to help someone with mental illness when she told her to replace her bad thoughts with pleasant thoughts.
When I was 9, the horse girl from my elementary school was so obsessed with me that she gave me Nintendo DS games so I'd be her friend and then she tried to steal my boyfriend. I often think about her and wonder where she is now and if she's doing better
At the end when Sarah puts on the dress and curls her hair, she isn't being reunited with her "grandmother" , she IS her "grandmother". As Sarah stated, her grandmother said she was from the future (aka Sarah's current time which we are witnessing) that's why her "grandmother" in the picture looks exactly like her.... it's essentially an endless time loop (and paradox) of the events of the movie happening and then Sarah being sent to the past becoming her "grandmother", who claims to be from the future, If we are to take the time travel/alien parts to be reality that is.
So that would make her her mother's mother and her daughter's daughter. Bootstrap paradox: how did Sarah come to be in the first place if Sarah had to come from her mother and her mother had to come from her, Sarah. It's a cyclic dependency.
She is in purgatory. She is a soul waiting to be born. The dream couple is her future parents. After she has sex she is actually the egg. The Horse is the human body and she is the soul The ride up to the trees is the birthing process. When she is lifted in the air head first she goes to thelight. The light of birth...going out the vagina. Head first. Her step father is the deist style god...clockmaker god who is not real attentive. He is kind....and calls her when she calls cops like a prayer. When he calls it is god and she cuts off the cops immediately. He has the car in his name still. He gives her money which she immedietly gives away to her next birth father. He sends over a plumber to FIX HER PIPES but the friend which is the womb she was trying to go into first is blocked when she could not get in and she scatched the wall trying to get in the friends room/womb. She has a dream and wakes up in bed with her next life twin...who both remember the ramp and water.....which is the ejaculation part. She has hard time remembering parts of the past because people believe when you get reborn your past lives are wiped out of your memory.
The soundtrack for this movie doesn’t get enough appreciation. The bizarre sounds it’s composed of really make you feel strange, like you’re slipping out of reality with Sarah whenever something strange happens.
Some of the things that happened to her weren’t physically possible, and those things lead me to believe that she actually was being abducted. The thing with the horse and Joan being able to see them was real, and the scratches in the wall were so deep it would be impossible for someone to break the outer surface of the wall with their bare fingernails unless they were hanging onto the wall for their dear life. Same thing with the scratches on the roof of her car. What really sold it for me though was when she opened the door to the shower and appeared in the craft store naked and still damp from her shower. It would be impossible for someone to walk all the way to work naked without anyone noticing, and even if she could have managed to make it there unnoticed her hair wouldn’t have been wet anymore.
She could’ve used an object for the scratches, Joan never said she saw her and we only saw the scene again from her perspective not joans. And again we see her from her perspective in the store either she may not have been wet or she may not have been even naked which would still result in her being sent to the psych ward cause she’s having a delusion of being naked when not.
Exactly. At the beginning Joan sees the Horses butt while she’s talking to Sarah inside the store. And the same scene repeats at the end. Everything else can be explained away except this and Sarah showing up soaking wet in the store. It has to be aliens 👽
DeliriumMind43 Harry’s is amazing I love love love them never tried dollar shave club I will stick to high quality and stay with Harry’s!!! 🪒 Apple even has a emoji for there orange one haha 😂
I was so sleep deprived when watching this I didn't realize the sponsor was apart of the video and could be skipped, so I just thought it was an ad that was unskippable
Since her time is spotty I’m thinking subconsciously she heard Joan say all those things but she thinks she’s hearing them before since she time jumps a lot
I had that thing once when i was smoking way too much weed. It felt like i heard everything my girlfriend said 5 seconds before she said it.. it was weird as fuck and i thought i could see in the future.. but than i got afraid that i just fucked up my brain.. it was okay in the end haha
she's experiencing fragmented time due to her mental health - If you've ever taken too many mushrooms you know that's possible without any paranormal interference - just an artefact of a significant chemical imbalance in the brain. Let me try and explain my theory by straightening out the timeline: 1) Brie's best friend suffers a terrible head injury, you get the feeling this may have been Brie's only real childhood friend - it is the first real tragedy for her (as seen in flashback). 2) Brie learns her "father" is not really her dad this rocks the stability of her world as a teenager (this is explained by her to her therapist) 3) As an adult she probably lives with her mother as a sort of semi recluse until her early thirties, living for her work and her horse - I don't think we know what her work was at this point (explained most of this to her therapist and she found her mother in the bathroom with water still running - suggesting they lived together). 4) The loss of her mother and the isolation she experienced probably triggered her first psychotic break. She starts to believe that she is or is a clone of her dead grandmother. 5) Believing she is her dead grandmother she goes out with her horse in the peach dress to the woods, walking her horse across a busy town centre - this leads to her being sectioned, and the state removes the horse. I think it is possible that the black and white photo of Brie's grandmother is actually Brie - she had it taken during this psychotic break and it would explain why she has the dress and the picture together in the run up to her second break. 6) When in the hospital for the first time she meets the young girl who thinks she is from 1995 - they're sharing a room because at this point Brie isn't consider "high risk". 7) She is told she will be discharged after spending 3 days at the hospital, we are informed this is her first stay, but despite clearly demonstrating delusional thinking is still discharged. WELCOME TO WHAT'S LEFT OF THE WELFARE STATE - DON'T GET SICK KIDS. 8) The "plan" she talks about before her first hospital discharge - is that she will get a job with crafts - her love of crafts is referenced during her second admission with the therapist (the first time we see him in the film). She may even see the doctor that was recommended and take some meds for a while. 9) We are now at the start of the film with Brie trying to live a normal life after her first hospital section. She is not mentally well at this point - but definitely better then she was and has got a job in the craft store and is focussed on looking after herself by taking classes and moving in with a room mate to be more normal. 10) Despite the surface level stability she has not resolved any of her underlying trauma and is taking no medication, she is disassociating all over the place - she is also keeping the pink dress to hand that she wore when she walked across town with her horse during her first psychotic break. I think she has completely supressed all of the trauma of her first section and this is also bubbling up in her dreams. She is escaping into the fantasy of her TV show. 12) She has her second admission, she doesn't remember the Therapist because she is now totally 100% OUT THERE MAN. She now is in isolation as this is her second break and there is considerable witness evidence she has become more dangerous (did she break into that mans home?) We see her just fully tripping balls now for around 15mins - the pink sheets, sex with the boy she liked, all of that stuff just going around and around faster and faster - she remembers meeting the girl from the 90s during her first admission and recognises her from the abduction dreams she had after meeting her whilst still suppressing the memory of the section - nothing from Brie's point of view from this point on can be taken at any sort of face value. I could go on but hopefully you see my point. The glimpse of the other shop lady of the horses backside, could be there for the sake of ambiguity or it could be evidence that Brie actually was time travelling and her consciousness was experiencing time out of order, with her physical body finally also being in two places at once by the end.
Call me stupid but I feel that she is her own Grandma from the photo. Seeing as her Grandma had said she was from the future and they were wearing the same clothes at the end of the film
I think that’s one interpretation & the film doesn’t have an opinion about which interpretation it believes. I also however think that this particular interpretation devalues it, as someone who sometimes struggles with getting lost in their own head, the film is a great representation of how impenetrable mental illness can feel. If it’s meant to be interpreted as real then it negates all of the social commentary.
I am dealing with severe mental illness, and this movie left me sobbing in the end. I don't think any of it was real, and the abduction was a suicide. The alien stuff really sat deep with me. I love Molly Shannon in this as well. I kind of wish I hadn't watched it because I've been in and out of psychosis lol
As someone who lives with mental illness and has seen friends and family come in and out of lucidity, this movie is a very unique flavor of terrifying. Really lets you see a psychotic episode from the perspective of the person with psychosis. So many people think they’re “crazy”, but nothing makes much sense to them, and yet everything makes sense. Psychosis is such a difficult thing to live with.
This reminded me a lot of season one of The OA. Where the viewer is left wondering whether or not this woman’s story about skipping through parallel dimensions is true, or just the ramblings of a woman that has been slowly going insane. We want to believe her story, but then there are many clues that lead us to believe she has been making this up in her mind. Personally I love movies and shows like this. The ones that make you think are always the most fun especially when the story sucks you in and you get invested.
So...basically it’s a story about a woman’s mental illness. Her slow descent into madness. The movie adds certain details to make you question what’s going on. Like the woman seeing the horse, the claw marks, and the other woman who sees the white room.
I have an aunt with schizophrenia and this movie was too much for me to watch. It felt like a first person view into what she goes through and really got to me.
I disagree the ending implies she succumbed to her illness, but her control took over and she's getting better. Blue seemed to signify her control, and the film showed blue chasing her and catching her in the end. Weird movie, slow in parts, but interesting and oddly beautiful. Cheers for the video mate
I read somewhere that the girl in the hospital is actually a younger version of Sarah and that this is supported by photos Sarah was looking at midway through the movie of her (the other girl) with her mother.
I love this movie because there are just so many theories as to what is going on, schizophrenia, alien abduction, being a time traveller, carbon monoxide poisoning, being in literal purgatory…
She also can gap to the 90's where she has another roomate! The girl who eventually also travels to the future! This girl knew Sarah was locked in the hospital because she literally says: "Just tell me how you got out", also in the department there wasn't fabrics anymore and the girl even says: "what fabrics?" So it was the same department but in different times. And finally Sarah's "mother" IS that girl! They are very alike. The paranolmal show looks kind of 90's old and she says:"after my mother died I RE-watched every episode of purgatory" which implies she also loved the show and probably they watched it together. So my theory is: she is a time traveller but she can travel both to the future and past but sometimes she stays long periods and sometimes just few hours/minutes. This creates a paradox where there are 3 Sarahs and each of them knows people and things the other Sarahs don't. At some point Sarah realize she is being abducted by the aliens and goes to the 50's where she stays for a while but she is constantly visiting other times and in some of these she visits Darren which is at the beggining frightened (we can see this in the movie) since she has desapeared that timeline for a while now and nobody knows where she is or everybody knows she's in the mental hospital, anyways she has sex with him and then she gets pregnant and goes back to the past and then she gives birth to his mother and dies or they lock her in the mental hospital of the past (which is the same place). Then she stays in the 90's and makes friends and roomate with her own mother which in reality is her daughter and she tells her so, so at some point she gets locked up in the hospital of the 90's too. And then she escapes and goes to the department and lgets shouted at by her daughter-roomate and locks in the bedroom and travells through time again. But at some point when her daughter is older she is back and her daughter kind of "adopts" her (in the movie Sarah says she never knew her father) and they pretend to be daughter and mother when in reality is the other way around and then Sarah's daughter marries George, and this eventually overwhelms Sarah's daughter because sometimes Sarah knew the truth and sometimes she didn't. And Sarah's daughter knew all about this alien-abduction- time travel because she has time travel-abduction experiences herself sometimes and finally decides to kill herself. So, Sarah is seeing her own daughter in the white alien spaceship. the Aliens are performing time-travel experiments with them.
Bro I scrolled for 40 minutes to wondering whyyy no one mentioned the 2nd roommate/"How did you get out?!" /girl in the ward/white room. Thanks for this insight as well. 💯
Ok, I literally thought that ‘Horse Girl’ was just a movie about a girl who like riding horses and was trying to save her horse or something like that? I was completely off 🤦♀️
Yeah. Netflix did a terrible job at “marketing” this one. Titling it Horse Girl and labeling it as an independent drama seemed way off. Has almost nothing to do with horses and I’d call it a psychological thriller.
The one thing that really gets me is her meetings with Ethan. Their first meeting, he says that this is her second time here. Their second meeting, he responds with confusion when she says that he said this is her second time. With the loop of her and Willow walking past the store, it seems like she goes into the hospital, and then somehow loops back around to several weeks before. This is what makes sense based on Joan and Ethan like I said above, but doesn't when you consider basic things like how her grandmother's dress and Willow should be missing for the events of the movie if the timeline is real. Maybe this time loop is in her head, but then I still find the inconsistencies while she's in the hospital incredibly odd. Sarah is obviously a reliable narrator, but the only way I can rationalize the events to myself, either as hallucinations or as alien abductions, is to combine it with the parallel universe theory presented by the one podcast she listens to.
I just wrote a long ass comment, then saw yours. It would be interesting to try to assemble an objective timeline of events because we definitely do not experience them in chronological order in the movie. Sarah being in the hospital last week and Joan seeing Willow at the beginning and the end definitely seems to suggest a time loop... There doesn't appear to be a neat and tidy explanation for things... perhaps intentionally so (to allow for multiple interpretations), but I feel like there's enough puzzle pieces here to work out an objective truth. Maybe not, though. Lol
After the date scene and how they shared conspiracy theories and stuff, I was really hopin it would just be a cute love story between two psycos hahaha
I watched this with some friends at one point. We thought it would be some kind of cringey movie like that "Tall Girl" show, or whatever it was called. From going through the movie blind, I felt like my Cheezits were laced with LSD or something by the end
I thought of something sparked by Joan seeing the horse in the beginning/end. Bear with me as I present the evidence for a point I will make at the end of this. When Sarah is first admitted to the ward, Ethan mentions how he saw her a few weeks earlier. Sarah goes to sleep in her room which she shares with no one, has her crazy dream, and awakes with a roommate that magically appeared overnight. She meets with Ethan again, and is shocked to learn that it has been 72 hours and not just one night. She tells him about feeling better, and how she doesn't believe she is a clone anymore. Ethan looks through his notes from their previous meeting, and seems puzzled at what she is talking about, but lets it slide as he thinks he's talking to a crazy Sarah. She continues talking, mentioning what Ethan had said about seeing her a few weeks before. Ethan tries to object to this but is cut off before he gets to finish. My point is: Sarah really did time travel, at least once, in the film. She is admitted to the ward, then time travels back to a few weeks prior. She awakes in a different time, a time in which she shares a room with the girl. The second time we see her talking to Ethan, we are seeing her talking to an Ethan of the past: he does not remember anything of her talk of clones, because it is yet to come, and he has not met her a few weeks earlier, because this is that Ethan. She leaves the ward, now a few weeks in the past and right back where the story started, eventually walking by the window so Joan sees the horse. Theory busting: However, we only see the last morning of her initial 72 hour visit to the ward, so what happened to the original past Sarah? Did future Sarah just replace her? Because if future Sarah replaces past Sarah at the ward, then she would not be in the shop as Joan sees the horse. However, since the film starts in media res as they are in the shop, there could be a possibility that the original past Sarah indeed was at a ward right before showing up for work. The time between future Sarah's release would be enough for the original past Sarah to have cleaned up and gone to work. Although, that would mean that there is a split and that there are two Sarahs. Thinking out loud! What do y'all think?
Did anybody else notice the telephone at Sarah’s work ringing multiple times during the movie. And then Joan picking up, but nobody being on the other end. However, when Sarah picks up the phone she hears someone talking.... I’m wondering what that’s about
Notice at 20:30 the wall decoration just behind the wall scratches. The interlocking circles' symbolism, which could be interpreted as time intersecting itself, as another clue that she may be a time traveler and not just a having schizophrenic episode.
I think both assumptions are correct, I think she’s struggling mentally and also dealing with weird things in reality. And because both are going on simultaneously, it’s difficult to decipher between the two.
@@thesuperviewer3226 technically if aliens were the ones who originally manipulated our DNA to make us intelligent beings, then its all one in the same.. you would just be "special" lol.
@@MrZombs123 what if they designed us genetically and placed us on this planet like rats in a lab cage...and they use us to test their technological advances
Bit of a story one night I had a dream that felt so real I think I legitimately traveled through time I woke up one day my brother came back who ain't been in my life at all a month passed we went to see Rambo last blood n I put my piece of the ticket in my pocket n after the movie ended I woke up n I was back at my grandmas bout a week passed since the dream n my brother came back the whole month played out second for second I didn't really think much of it till he got his paycheck n we went to see Rambo n after the movie I had a minute of deja vu so I digged in my pocket for the ticket n I pulled out two how I think I time travel I crumbled up the ticket I got and the ticket I got in my "dream" I didn't crumble one of the tickets was ages but still not crumbled up
This was the weirdest movie I've seen in forever. Oh.. The reason there were no dads.. No grandpa, no dad.. Someone said down lower that Sarah got pregnant with Darren's baby, so she gave birth to her daughter.. Who ended up being her.. Mother. This movie was w i l d
I have such remarks: 1) Girl in the room is Sarah herself, just the younger version of her. Maybe something else traumatic happed at that time or there is something left in that age for her. 2) Scratches on the wall she could have done, not physically (like, she held a knife on a date with Darren, that could imply that she is good with them). 3) I am 100% convinced she committed suicide in the end. She wanted to say goodbye to Willow and be "teleported" to her grandma's times. And tbh I don't have a good explanation for the horse's butt and Joan's perspective( But it was very fun to watch and theorise.
The horse is the human body and she was the soul. When she finally picked the right time to be reincarnated she put soul and body together and rode to her birth. Head first into the light of birth. The whole movie is allegory for the sperm, egg, reincarnation. The Aliens, the going crazy, the conspiracy stuff is just a fun way to hide the deep gnostic deist tale.
ive never seen anyone else with the suicide point before!! she totally killed herself at the end, i mean the whole rising into light thing is kinda making it obvious imo
Sarah’s “Grandmother” look is more 1930s, with the short curls, the style/cut of the dress, the lighter (possibly crepe) fabric, and her burgundy lipstick . I can totally see how that is accurate though as Sarah is in her 30s/turns 30, so she was born at the latest 1990. Let’s say Sarah’s mother had her later in life, like her early to mid 40s, so her mother (in theory) was born at the latest 1950. So Sarah was probably sent back to 1950 and gave birth to her own mother, as it is implied Darren impregnated her. Even back then, people would have thought her out of place, as she showed up looking like it’s about 10-15 years earlier. I can totally understand people finding her crazy, with her claiming she’s a time traveler “from the future” dressed like it’s the past. 🤷🏼♂️
if the whole time travel alien thing is real my guess is sarah have at least survived till the Reagan administation. so if Sarah at age of 30 gose back in time to 1950 ,lives till around 1970 when alot of people geting kick out of metal care centers then she dies. i dont think she will be going crazy once she is certain she have gone back in time . i mean at that point she is not crazy anymore is just how to deal with the paranormal. she probably settle down get married have kid till the alien mess with her agian at her 50 end up make her crazy and get send into a metal ward.
Nope Oh I agree, it’s just people might have found her odd/out of place even then, she did eventually go crazy but I assume people always thought she was a bit weird.
@@BB-ni8vx i wonder if this is the aliens testing if artificial destiny or willing self fulfilling prophecy. i mean the aliens would pick her up and force send her back anytime really but they only did when she is fully committed to go back in time. because all it would take is for her to say no at some point and the cycle is broken.
Me: Oh hey! Foundflix posted a new video! Also me: *see's title* Me again: oh... WHAT THE F*** Me after hearing the intro: Ok now I'm confused Me finally at the end: This is the craziest movie I have ever seen, by god it's over
I think the end of the movie is that she accepts that she’s the clone of her grandmother and she goes to the past because her grandmother is from the future.
what if she actually was her grandmother but was developing dementia or something and she thought she was younger. her roommate could have been her care taker and such.
I watched the first two minutes and watched the movie, it’s actually a trip and I liked it a lot. I loved the time loop ending and the ton of little details that foreshadow stuff? It’s weird and creepy and it gets a whole nother level of trippy.
Flix: Let me introduce you to a shaving commercial and have a clean shave Also Flix: On the next scene, I won't have a clean shaven face despite me showing you a shaving commercial.
My take on the scratches and horse in the parking lot: If you only see the time travel/cloning narrative as symptoms of her mental illness, the scratches (seen by Nicki) and the tail end of the horse (seen by Joan) might imply that the people close to Sarah were already catching glimpses of her mental illness, even before she realized (along with the audience, since she's our protagonist) that something was wrong. We're not _truly_ seeing something from Joan and Nicki's pov, we're seeing their reactions to those occurrences through Sarah's eyes. When people develop schizophrenia, those close to them often remember early indicators that something was _off,_ long before the paranoia and hallucinations fully take over. Nicki sees the scratches and knows Sarah must have made them, but gets no explanation of how or why. Joan hears or sees something disconcerting or manic in Sarah's behavior during that conversation, but Sarah interprets the worried, unsettled expression as Joan's response to glimpsing the warped reality only Sarah's aware of.
My favorite part of this entire video is Mr. Found Flix shaving and looking quite dapper. Dude must be Portuguese, my ex bro in law looked just like him and was highly intelligent too. I lost that friend ship with the break up and sensei Found Flix makes me feel like I have a friend back. Thanks bro
Interesting that she's so entranced by her striking resemblance to her grandmother, as people with schizophrenia often times struggle with facial recognition (researching schizophrenia is what made me realize i'm not exactly bad with names, but can't actually recognize faces well)
She wasn't reunited with her grandmother at the end. She IS her grandmother. They said her grandmother was crazy and said she was from the future...as in 2020.
she gived birth to her own mother or father ?
@@notoriousbig3k yeah, I was waiting for some zoofiliac action, but then the horse was a female, so lesbian zoofiliac action?
notoriousbig3k So-The grandfather paradox,then?
Oh no, that means she's going to end up homeless & dead.
@@notoriousbig3k yeah. See the movie predestination for reference. It's a time loop.
I truly hate the feeling i had watching this movie, i feel like i'm watching someone's world fall apart without them fully knowing what's happening
legitimately...
i understand this more than i should, and manic paranoia runs in my family.
It sucked even more sense it was happening to sweet little Annie Adderall
That’s the point, so it worked.
It's horrific
yeah....reminds me of my mom...
Well that’s another summary finished for another movie I’ll never have to watch. Thanks again, FoundFlix.
I saw you in Th3birdman and other vids, I love reading your comments. They're pretty cool and funny
I swear we watch the same things I constantly see you on Tekking101 vids
It’s pretty trippy, you should check it out
Saves you 20$+ a vid lol
Damn, man. You're here too?
The horror genre in the 2000's and 2010's went from gore to ghosts to cults and now psychological horror.
For me ghosts were the highpoint of the genre, because I like a good haunted house movie, but I hated the cult phase. Cults are such lame horror villains, because they’re just a group of people.
That’s exactly why I stopped watching them. Nothing is scarier than the depths of the human mind
Tru That
This is the weird type of horror that I can’t take.
The psychological horrors that we see now are not too different from the ones they used to make in the 60's and 70's. Movie genres just come and go into fashion every 10 or 20 years just like clothes, music ecc.
I’d like to throw in a theory that she might be suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning. Most of her delusions and odd behaviour could be symptoms to slow, long term exposure to carbon monoxide. This could be hinted at by the fact it’s the first search option but is completely overlooked by both the viewer and the main character in favour of an answer that fits her narrative. The most simple answer is often the most overlooked.
From where? She has a roommate who is perfectly normal.
Callsign: JoNay Carbon monoxide poisoning can affect people differently. Some people have a higher tolerance to it or show different symptoms. She could also be spending a lot of time in a room that has a direct source to the carbon monoxide and therefore is more affected by it.
That's all possible but there is nothing in the movie suggesting it other than the internet search, and nothing at all suggesting that she's more sensitive to carbon monoxide than a typical person. I'm sorry but I don't think it's a movie about CM poisoning.
The plumber DID say that the pipes actually did need to be replaced. Could have been a gas leak even
so, how does her co-worker fit in to the movie then. she literally sees her outside with the horse and inside working right in front of her?
Her grandmother kept saying that she was from the future. She realized that she was her grandmother. Maybe she really slept with Darren and gave birth to her mother. When she was beamed up she was transported to the 50s to be her grandmother. She is a loop person. She gives birth to her mother, dies, her mother gives birth to her. She jumps through time has sex with Darren getting pregnant with her mother again and being transported back to the 50s to do the cycle again. She's not crazy. Her grandmother wasn't crazy. Her mother was depressed from having her mother tell her all the time, I'm from the future, I'm your daughter, I gave birth to you, you're going to kill yourself, driving her to do it, continuing the cycle. her mother/daughter had to be raised by someone she thought was crazy. Which drove her to insanity.
That's amazingly insightful, you just blew my mind away
Predestination
btw time travel dosent work like that
u cannot give birh to your own mother/father then magically expecting you to be born while u are already existing its called a mental illness her grandmother had and she also had but she killed her self and the rest being in her head ...
@@notoriousbig3k so how did molly Shannon see her then? It wasn't insanity. It's a huge time travel movie trope, being your own ancestor. She was actually time traveling. In the end she realized that she was her grandmother.
@@notoriousbig3k she did have hallucinations and delusions at times, probably because of incest. Darren is her grandfather. Her mother is her daughter. She is her own grandmother.
That girl she saw in the white and in the hospital was also her "roommate" when she left the hospital. She was yelling at her "where have you been, Where did you go?" Who was the real roommate ;)
;)
Where did she come from, cotton eye joe?
Yeah thats what I was thinking too.
He said in this review that Dr. Ethan whatever mentioned she was released from here already a few weeks ago but she didnt remember.
Her being her roomate like you said makes sense. I was just thinking they had talked on her prior visit there, or doing the 2 days she blanked out they shared their experiences and both respectively forgot about sharing
knes167 thank you!! Ugh I was frustrated when he mentioned their conversation as being something that couldn’t be explained away by her mental illness. If she could conjure up the man in her dreams from merely passing him on the streets, then it’s just as likely that she also manifested the roommate from a previous stay. To me It does strongly suggest she is suffering from some mental illness, expect for two pieces of evidence; Joan seeing and confirming the existence of the horse outside the store, and her identical look to her grandmother who claimed to be from the future!
And her roommate was dressed like the 1990’s, which is why she asks her what she’s wearing. Then in the hospital her roommate says she is from 1995.

Never watched this movie but from your synopsis, this movie really does capture schizophrenia quite well. My mom suffers from it and during one of her lucid moments, she told me "I don't know what's real and what's not". That has always haunted me. The way she experiences reality isn't how it happens. It's extremely sad. She revolves her life around hidden meanings and rituals.
Haha
She is not sick or crazy....the movie is all ALLEGORY. Nothing you see is real. She is a soul in purgatory waiting to be reincarnated. Everything is Allegory for sex. She dresses like an egg. She goes down long hallways like the egg traveling the fallopian tubes. The whole movie is allegory. Completely.
What's funny about schizophrenia
I was thinking about Schizophrenia as well whilst watching this film because I felt as if the main character might've been suffering from it.
I have pretty bad episodes psychosis and this movie does actually show a good representation of it. During most of my episodes I don't question that something seems off, like a circus once visited me in my bedroom and i was enjoying the show until children under my bed started begging me to help them
“You might think ‘is she half horse?’ or something”
Gen Z’s: *nah bruh she crazy and neighed at her classmates*
Ok boomer
Lol
Legit a horse girl at my school neighed at one of my friends sisters and then BIT her....
They sound like a bunch of momos when they talk like that.
I'm not saying it's aliens, but...
Gotta be honest I didn't expect a show called "Horse Girl" to be on a horror channel so I'm very intrigued lol.
the fact that she does not turn into a cronenberg hell-beast is horse shit
It’s an incredibly boring movie imo
@@unreal_injun4179 at first I thought it was Gunna be one of those sicko movies like tusk or human centipede
From the title of the movie, I thought it would be like the horse books I read as a kid... “Black Beauty”, “The Saddle Club”, etc. Hope no moms get this for their horse-obsessed daughters based only on the title...
@@Ajehy would hoping that some horse girl's mother actually end up traumatizing their spawn make me a bad person? Asking for a friend...
You know what they say about horse girls, they're unstable.
Raijin Wolf ha

Don’t perform badly in bed with a horse girl or they’ll have you put down.
Casually Shaggy really?
@@killzone1401 this isn't true. I'm a horse girl but I'm not crazy... At least I hope I'm not.
The black fingers and their movement with the lady's body looks and sounds like sewing with a sewing machine....her reality is being skewed by her dillusions...I think she may have committed suicide at the end too, but we just see it from her mind's perspective. I'm losing my mind just trying to figure this one out lol
@David Parry Of course, of course
And she works at a craft/sewing store!!!
The entire movie could be her remembering everything in her last moments, with certain things muddled up. Maybe the reason the room mate at the clinic had talked to her about the other world she believes to exist and had forgotten doing so hence why she was so confused. This could then mean that the dreams occured in the peak of her break from reality, after she was told about the other world but she remembers all this muddled up. This could also be why we see time skips and things that are physically impossible for her to do, shes so broken from reality that she is bending details to justify her insanity and is forgetting certain days therefore further proving her to be correct
@David Parry
Hope they found the horse.
@@chalkietigger4650 wow that's a good one too
Also the movie is a “loop” because it opened on the blue fabric and closes on it as well
This is one of those I'm glad I watched before you released this vid. Was a good one! Another clue that she is time traveling is the first time she meets her social worker, he says they've met before but she doesn't remember. The NEXT time she meets him, she mentions they met before, but the social worker says this is the first time. So we got to see both meetings, that happened in different orders for each of them.
The thing with schizophrenia is time distortion like in Amazon's UNDONE, where the mind's understanding of time shifts from its chronological order. The way to describe it is that it's similar to deja-vu where you are convinced something you are witnessing has happened before and what's about to happen, happens. It's chemicals in your brain triggers emotive responses that mixes up feelings of familiarity with memories and your current senses.
@@andykww yes but available information to the protagonist, that changes her believes and outlook, don't become available until later in the story... i used to think it was just schizophrenia, but the more you pay attention to the order of events, the more time travel makes more sense. It's more than Deja Vu. She learns the name and face and voice of a specific person for her 1st time, before she meets the 1996 girl, before the idea of time travel is in her head and before she "knows what she has to do". At this point she is still unaware. The 2nd time is actually their 1st, chronology, yet she is using all of her aquired knowledge from the tv show to the girl to even her aquired knowledge of her meeting with the social worker. There are more details than what Found Flix mentioned, so i recommend checking out the movie if you haven't.
@@locke6854 The thing is, we are watching the movie from the perspective of a person who's illness distorts her perception of the flow of time and chain of events. For her(and us) its an A > B > C chain of events but that doesn't mean that in reality it went A > C > B.
Thats the interesting aspect of the movie, and a big reason it's important that the vast majority of the film is from her perspective. Things don't make sense on purpose, and that ambiguity is the point. You are led to believe she might be travelling through time specifically because from her perspective(and ours, again) there is evidence of it(or at least contradictions that don't make sense).
dude i can't wrap my head around this time travel shit lol
@@GiggaGMikeE you're absolutely right.
I was really leaning toward mental illness especially with how serious that stuff is but the fact we saw the coworkers perspective and she saw that horse and reacted to it makes me go more towards the possibility of the time traveling and aliens
H y p e Hokage shutup
Ahegao Akane that escalated quickly
Or ...maybe the way they edited that part was linking the beginning of the movie with the ending...so maybe in the beginning she was looking at something else, but they show the horse as what she saw, which was she actually what saw at the end, ion know lol
Sharonda Lewis yeah that shit high key mind fucked me too 😂 but also the roommate noticed the scratches in her room 🤔
I think that she might have invented the last bit. Another typical sign of schizophrenia is to reinterpret memories based upon their current beliefs; so it can be that she remembered when her coworker saw something and re-imagined it from her new prospective at the end and that in the beginning that was the first sign of her loosing her sanity and it wasn't really the point of view of her co-worker, she just imagined that it was (another sign of schizophrenia). I think it would make sense considering her past and the title of the movie that the first and last core factors to her "illness" history were both related to the horse.
About the scratches she could very easily have done them herself, it is also another quite famous sign of schizotipic behaviour.

i like the Joan character. she represents well-meaning ppl who don't know how to help someone with mental illness when she told her to replace her bad thoughts with pleasant thoughts.
This went from a indie rom com to something bizzarre and unnerving
ok we all got this girl in class tho

When I was 9, the horse girl from my elementary school was so obsessed with me that she gave me Nintendo DS games so I'd be her friend and then she tried to steal my boyfriend.

No i don't have a horse in my class 😂
Or someone who looks like a horse (has a long face)
@@ananasbanana Maybe she liked horses so much because she kinda looked like one
At the end when Sarah puts on the dress and curls her hair, she isn't being reunited with her "grandmother" , she IS her "grandmother". As Sarah stated, her grandmother said she was from the future (aka Sarah's current time which we are witnessing) that's why her "grandmother" in the picture looks exactly like her.... it's essentially an endless time loop (and paradox) of the events of the movie happening and then Sarah being sent to the past becoming her "grandmother", who claims to be from the future, If we are to take the time travel/alien parts to be reality that is.
Ah,a classic case of _the Grandfather paradox, I presume?_
Wow
So that would make her her mother's mother and her daughter's daughter.
Bootstrap paradox: how did Sarah come to be in the first place if Sarah had to come from her mother and her mother had to come from her, Sarah. It's a cyclic dependency.
Maybe her show is a clue that she’s in some kind of purgatory
Omg and that was the name of the TV show she was obsessed with!
I knew the TV show was some kind of foreshadowing
She is in purgatory. She is a soul waiting to be born. The dream couple is her future parents. After she has sex she is actually the egg. The Horse is the human body and she is the soul The ride up to the trees is the birthing process. When she is lifted in the air head first she goes to thelight. The light of birth...going out the vagina. Head first. Her step father is the deist style god...clockmaker god who is not real attentive. He is kind....and calls her when she calls cops like a prayer. When he calls it is god and she cuts off the cops immediately. He has the car in his name still. He gives her money which she immedietly gives away to her next birth father. He sends over a plumber to FIX HER PIPES but the friend which is the womb she was trying to go into first is blocked when she could not get in and she scatched the wall trying to get in the friends room/womb. She has a dream and wakes up in bed with her next life twin...who both remember the ramp and water.....which is the ejaculation part. She has hard time remembering parts of the past because people believe when you get reborn your past lives are wiped out of your memory.
Not a bad theory
Robert Cook some of that lined up pretty well but some of it didn’t and kinda threw me off
What scares me is- this could all be real and happening and no one would ever believe it.
I think it is
yeah right like imagine trying to get help for this and it actually happening and everyone just calls u crazy that would be terrifying dude
It's not real, it's her mental breakdown because she can't deal with traumas
The soundtrack for this movie doesn’t get enough appreciation. The bizarre sounds it’s composed of really make you feel strange, like you’re slipping out of reality with Sarah whenever something strange happens.
Yeah the soundtrack scared the shit out of me
this movie evokes such a specific feeling, unlike anything I’ve ever seen.
How did everyone get here so fast lol It's only been three minutes
Was it 3 minutes or were you time traveling again?
Im 2 hours late? Is that better
We aren't doing anything
we rode Horse Girl
Jacob Sowle best response
Some of the things that happened to her weren’t physically possible, and those things lead me to believe that she actually was being abducted. The thing with the horse and Joan being able to see them was real, and the scratches in the wall were so deep it would be impossible for someone to break the outer surface of the wall with their bare fingernails unless they were hanging onto the wall for their dear life. Same thing with the scratches on the roof of her car.
What really sold it for me though was when she opened the door to the shower and appeared in the craft store naked and still damp from her shower. It would be impossible for someone to walk all the way to work naked without anyone noticing, and even if she could have managed to make it there unnoticed her hair wouldn’t have been wet anymore.
She could’ve used an object for the scratches, Joan never said she saw her and we only saw the scene again from her perspective not joans. And again we see her from her perspective in the store either she may not have been wet or she may not have been even naked which would still result in her being sent to the psych ward cause she’s having a delusion of being naked when not.
Exactly. At the beginning Joan sees the Horses butt while she’s talking to Sarah inside the store. And the same scene repeats at the end. Everything else can be explained away except this and Sarah showing up soaking wet in the store. It has to be aliens 👽
Or she could’ve been in the break room and took off all her clothes without knowing
She could have scratched the wall with her fabric scissors?
Damn didn’t think about that...

BA DUM TSSSS
BA DUM TSSSSS
she's experiencing fragmented time due to her mental health - If you've ever taken too many mushrooms you know that's possible without any paranormal interference - just an artefact of a significant chemical imbalance in the brain.
Let me try and explain my theory by straightening out the timeline:
1) Brie's best friend suffers a terrible head injury, you get the feeling this may have been Brie's only real childhood friend - it is the first real tragedy for her (as seen in flashback).
2) Brie learns her "father" is not really her dad this rocks the stability of her world as a teenager (this is explained by her to her therapist)
3) As an adult she probably lives with her mother as a sort of semi recluse until her early thirties, living for her work and her horse - I don't think we know what her work was at this point (explained most of this to her therapist and she found her mother in the bathroom with water still running - suggesting they lived together).
4) The loss of her mother and the isolation she experienced probably triggered her first psychotic break. She starts to believe that she is or is a clone of her dead grandmother.
5) Believing she is her dead grandmother she goes out with her horse in the peach dress to the woods, walking her horse across a busy town centre - this leads to her being sectioned, and the state removes the horse. I think it is possible that the black and white photo of Brie's grandmother is actually Brie - she had it taken during this psychotic break and it would explain why she has the dress and the picture together in the run up to her second break.
6) When in the hospital for the first time she meets the young girl who thinks she is from 1995 - they're sharing a room because at this point Brie isn't consider "high risk".
7) She is told she will be discharged after spending 3 days at the hospital, we are informed this is her first stay, but despite clearly demonstrating delusional thinking is still discharged. WELCOME TO WHAT'S LEFT OF THE WELFARE STATE - DON'T GET SICK KIDS.
8) The "plan" she talks about before her first hospital discharge - is that she will get a job with crafts - her love of crafts is referenced during her second admission with the therapist (the first time we see him in the film). She may even see the doctor that was recommended and take some meds for a while.
9) We are now at the start of the film with Brie trying to live a normal life after her first hospital section. She is not mentally well at this point - but definitely better then she was and has got a job in the craft store and is focussed on looking after herself by taking classes and moving in with a room mate to be more normal.
10) Despite the surface level stability she has not resolved any of her underlying trauma and is taking no medication, she is disassociating all over the place - she is also keeping the pink dress to hand that she wore when she walked across town with her horse during her first psychotic break. I think she has completely supressed all of the trauma of her first section and this is also bubbling up in her dreams. She is escaping into the fantasy of her TV show.
12) She has her second admission, she doesn't remember the Therapist because she is now totally 100% OUT THERE MAN. She now is in isolation as this is her second break and there is considerable witness evidence she has become more dangerous (did she break into that mans home?) We see her just fully tripping balls now for around 15mins - the pink sheets, sex with the boy she liked, all of that stuff just going around and around faster and faster - she remembers meeting the girl from the 90s during her first admission and recognises her from the abduction dreams she had after meeting her whilst still suppressing the memory of the section - nothing from Brie's point of view from this point on can be taken at any sort of face value.
I could go on but hopefully you see my point. The glimpse of the other shop lady of the horses backside, could be there for the sake of ambiguity or it could be evidence that Brie actually was time travelling and her consciousness was experiencing time out of order, with her physical body finally also being in two places at once by the end.

@@SUPASPENCE who took the photoooo

I think that’s one interpretation & the film doesn’t have an opinion about which interpretation it believes. I also however think that this particular interpretation devalues it, as someone who sometimes struggles with getting lost in their own head, the film is a great representation of how impenetrable mental illness can feel. If it’s meant to be interpreted as real then it negates all of the social commentary.

Got CHEESE ? Bruh shut up Dont fuck with a person like that.
As someone who lives with mental illness and has seen friends and family come in and out of lucidity, this movie is a very unique flavor of terrifying. Really lets you see a psychotic episode from the perspective of the person with psychosis. So many people think they’re “crazy”, but nothing makes much sense to them, and yet everything makes sense. Psychosis is such a difficult thing to live with.
So horse girl is basically the episode of futurama when fry becomes his own grandparent.

This reminded me a lot of season one of The OA. Where the viewer is left wondering whether or not this woman’s story about skipping through parallel dimensions is true, or just the ramblings of a woman that has been slowly going insane. We want to believe her story, but then there are many clues that lead us to believe she has been making this up in her mind. Personally I love movies and shows like this. The ones that make you think are always the most fun especially when the story sucks you in and you get invested.

How many times does he rewatch the same movie looking for little signs or references? Just gotta appreciate these videos
I disagree the ending implies she succumbed to her illness, but her control took over and she's getting better. Blue seemed to signify her control, and the film showed blue chasing her and catching her in the end.
Weird movie, slow in parts, but interesting and oddly beautiful. Cheers for the video mate
I read somewhere that the girl in the hospital is actually a younger version of Sarah and that this is supported by photos Sarah was looking at midway through the movie of her (the other girl) with her mother.
That explains why the roommate said in the hospital dorm that she came from the past (1995)... Yea
I love this movie because there are just so many theories as to what is going on, schizophrenia, alien abduction, being a time traveller, carbon monoxide poisoning, being in literal purgatory…
I think she’s in a time loop & is her own grandmother. 😱
Would love for you to do the "Sleepy Hollow" series and the "Siren" series about the mermaids
Ooh I agree, I'd love to see him do a review or explanation on the Sleepy Hollow series!
Lol
I agree
Siren is terrible
@@samwisethebrave8103 Its Not that Bad.
And he reviewed Bad stuff too
THANK YOU for this i wasn't sure if this was a fever dream i had or an actual netflix movie
She also can gap to the 90's where she has another roomate! The girl who eventually also travels to the future! This girl knew Sarah was locked in the hospital because she literally says: "Just tell me how you got out", also in the department there wasn't fabrics anymore and the girl even says: "what fabrics?" So it was the same department but in different times. And finally Sarah's "mother" IS that girl! They are very alike. The paranolmal show looks kind of 90's old and she says:"after my mother died I RE-watched every episode of purgatory" which implies she also loved the show and probably they watched it together. So my theory is: she is a time traveller but she can travel both to the future and past but sometimes she stays long periods and sometimes just few hours/minutes. This creates a paradox where there are 3 Sarahs and each of them knows people and things the other Sarahs don't. At some point Sarah realize she is being abducted by the aliens and goes to the 50's where she stays for a while but she is constantly visiting other times and in some of these she visits Darren which is at the beggining frightened (we can see this in the movie) since she has desapeared that timeline for a while now and nobody knows where she is or everybody knows she's in the mental hospital, anyways she has sex with him and then she gets pregnant and goes back to the past and then she gives birth to his mother and dies or they lock her in the mental hospital of the past (which is the same place). Then she stays in the 90's and makes friends and roomate with her own mother which in reality is her daughter and she tells her so, so at some point she gets locked up in the hospital of the 90's too. And then she escapes and goes to the department and lgets shouted at by her daughter-roomate and locks in the bedroom and travells through time again. But at some point when her daughter is older she is back and her daughter kind of "adopts" her (in the movie Sarah says she never knew her father) and they pretend to be daughter and mother when in reality is the other way around and then Sarah's daughter marries George, and this eventually overwhelms Sarah's daughter because sometimes Sarah knew the truth and sometimes she didn't. And Sarah's daughter knew all about this alien-abduction- time travel because she has time travel-abduction experiences herself sometimes and finally decides to kill herself. So, Sarah is seeing her own daughter in the white alien spaceship. the Aliens are performing time-travel experiments with them.
Bro I scrolled for 40 minutes to wondering whyyy no one mentioned the 2nd roommate/"How did you get out?!" /girl in the ward/white room. Thanks for this insight as well. 💯
Ok, I literally thought that ‘Horse Girl’ was just a movie about a girl who like riding horses and was trying to save her horse or something like that? I was completely off 🤦♀️
Yeah. Netflix did a terrible job at “marketing” this one. Titling it Horse Girl and labeling it as an independent drama seemed way off. Has almost nothing to do with horses and I’d call it a psychological thriller.
It's Allison Brie. So, I'm gonna call it "BoJack Horsegirl"
i watched this movie at 1 am and i thought the whole movie was just my hallucination
maxiah 😭💯I woke up the next day like what type of dream did I just have lol🤯 but it was really this movie I watched at 2 something in the morning 😂😂😂
@@prettymoneyy3102 sammeee
My man waited for his beard to grow to upload the video
He is a man of focus, commitment and sheer fucking will
The one thing that really gets me is her meetings with Ethan. Their first meeting, he says that this is her second time here. Their second meeting, he responds with confusion when she says that he said this is her second time. With the loop of her and Willow walking past the store, it seems like she goes into the hospital, and then somehow loops back around to several weeks before. This is what makes sense based on Joan and Ethan like I said above, but doesn't when you consider basic things like how her grandmother's dress and Willow should be missing for the events of the movie if the timeline is real. Maybe this time loop is in her head, but then I still find the inconsistencies while she's in the hospital incredibly odd.
Sarah is obviously a reliable narrator, but the only way I can rationalize the events to myself, either as hallucinations or as alien abductions, is to combine it with the parallel universe theory presented by the one podcast she listens to.
I just wrote a long ass comment, then saw yours. It would be interesting to try to assemble an objective timeline of events because we definitely do not experience them in chronological order in the movie. Sarah being in the hospital last week and Joan seeing Willow at the beginning and the end definitely seems to suggest a time loop... There doesn't appear to be a neat and tidy explanation for things... perhaps intentionally so (to allow for multiple interpretations), but I feel like there's enough puzzle pieces here to work out an objective truth. Maybe not, though. Lol
After the date scene and how they shared conspiracy theories and stuff, I was really hopin it would just be a cute love story between two psycos hahaha
I watched this with some friends at one point. We thought it would be some kind of cringey movie like that "Tall Girl" show, or whatever it was called. From going through the movie blind, I felt like my Cheezits were laced with LSD or something by the end

You dont do "landskaping"?
Lol to be fair if I was as big as him I'd also just assume only guys watch me, even if I knew that wasnt true I'd probably still think that sometimes
i literally thought i dreamt this movie until right now
I thought of something sparked by Joan seeing the horse in the beginning/end. Bear with me as I present the evidence for a point I will make at the end of this.
When Sarah is first admitted to the ward, Ethan mentions how he saw her a few weeks earlier.
Sarah goes to sleep in her room which she shares with no one, has her crazy dream, and awakes with a roommate that magically appeared overnight.
She meets with Ethan again, and is shocked to learn that it has been 72 hours and not just one night.
She tells him about feeling better, and how she doesn't believe she is a clone anymore. Ethan looks through his notes from their previous meeting, and seems puzzled at what she is talking about, but lets it slide as he thinks he's talking to a crazy Sarah.
She continues talking, mentioning what Ethan had said about seeing her a few weeks before. Ethan tries to object to this but is cut off before he gets to finish.
My point is: Sarah really did time travel, at least once, in the film. She is admitted to the ward, then time travels back to a few weeks prior. She awakes in a different time, a time in which she shares a room with the girl. The second time we see her talking to Ethan, we are seeing her talking to an Ethan of the past: he does not remember anything of her talk of clones, because it is yet to come, and he has not met her a few weeks earlier, because this is that Ethan. She leaves the ward, now a few weeks in the past and right back where the story started, eventually walking by the window so Joan sees the horse.
Theory busting:
However, we only see the last morning of her initial 72 hour visit to the ward, so what happened to the original past Sarah? Did future Sarah just replace her? Because if future Sarah replaces past Sarah at the ward, then she would not be in the shop as Joan sees the horse. However, since the film starts in media res as they are in the shop, there could be a possibility that the original past Sarah indeed was at a ward right before showing up for work. The time between future Sarah's release would be enough for the original past Sarah to have cleaned up and gone to work. Although, that would mean that there is a split and that there are two Sarahs.
Thinking out loud! What do y'all think?
Did anybody else notice the telephone at Sarah’s work ringing multiple times during the movie. And then Joan picking up, but nobody being on the other end. However, when Sarah picks up the phone she hears someone talking.... I’m wondering what that’s about
Starts the video off with shaving then starts the review and has a 5 o’clock shave
Me:🤯
Notice at 20:30 the wall decoration just behind the wall scratches. The interlocking circles' symbolism, which could be interpreted as time intersecting itself, as another clue that she may be a time traveler and not just a having schizophrenic episode.
I watched this movie only for Matthew Gray gubler
I loved that mgg was doing a Supernatural parody. Lol..also hope you've seen " American Gothic" it's silly but I love it.
@@87ventus YES ITS SO FUNNY
Never watch this on edibles.
Source: someone who watched this movie on edibles. 😭
Krissy Victory ME TOO and midway i was like “am i just high or is none of this making any sort of sense 🤔”’lmaoooo
Literally me lol 😂 I was about to call the police it freaked me out!
Why???
What happens on edibles 😂😂😂
Too late
I think both assumptions are correct, I think she’s struggling mentally and also dealing with weird things in reality. And because both are going on simultaneously, it’s difficult to decipher between the two.
Angela u hit it on the button.
U to so right
i normally skip when youtubers do ads but THATS HOW YOU DO IT! you actually used the product!
What if the movie is about how EVERYONE who has "dementia" turns out are actually being used by aliens to test time traveling?
Angie G wait what
OMG I do love this premise. That shit runs in my family so I'd MUCH rather blame aliens than our genes. Also "F" unreliable narrators!!
@@thesuperviewer3226 technically if aliens were the ones who originally manipulated our DNA to make us intelligent beings, then its all one in the same.. you would just be "special" lol.
@@MrZombs123 what if they designed us genetically and placed us on this planet like rats in a lab cage...and they use us to test their technological advances
Bit of a story one night I had a dream that felt so real I think I legitimately traveled through time I woke up one day my brother came back who ain't been in my life at all a month passed we went to see Rambo last blood n I put my piece of the ticket in my pocket n after the movie ended I woke up n I was back at my grandmas bout a week passed since the dream n my brother came back the whole month played out second for second I didn't really think much of it till he got his paycheck n we went to see Rambo n after the movie I had a minute of deja vu so I digged in my pocket for the ticket n I pulled out two how I think I time travel I crumbled up the ticket I got and the ticket I got in my "dream" I didn't crumble one of the tickets was ages but still not crumbled up
watching this high literally makes no sense. i start imagining i’m somehow in the movie
Not gonna lie, he looked really fresh after that shave
This was the weirdest movie I've seen in forever.
Oh.. The reason there were no dads.. No grandpa, no dad.. Someone said down lower that Sarah got pregnant with Darren's baby, so she gave birth to her daughter.. Who ended up being her.. Mother.
This movie was w i l d
I have such remarks:
1) Girl in the room is Sarah herself, just the younger version of her. Maybe something else traumatic happed at that time or there is something left in that age for her.
2) Scratches on the wall she could have done, not physically (like, she held a knife on a date with Darren, that could imply that she is good with them).
3) I am 100% convinced she committed suicide in the end. She wanted to say goodbye to Willow and be "teleported" to her grandma's times.
And tbh I don't have a good explanation for the horse's butt and Joan's perspective(
But it was very fun to watch and theorise.
The horse is the human body and she was the soul. When she finally picked the right time to be reincarnated she put soul and body together and rode to her birth. Head first into the light of birth. The whole movie is allegory for the sperm, egg, reincarnation. The Aliens, the going crazy, the conspiracy stuff is just a fun way to hide the deep gnostic deist tale.
If you look carefully at knife blade on cemetery episode you can clearly see it's blade is damaged :)
ive never seen anyone else with the suicide point before!! she totally killed herself at the end, i mean the whole rising into light thing is kinda making it obvious imo
@@beckbock1420 She was being reborn...reincarnated. She was not killing herself.
@@JohnGaltGurgi ya gotta die to reincarnate, ur right but me too
If she walks past her earlier self with the horse, doesn't that mean she's already _gone_ back in time at that point?
Sarah’s “Grandmother” look is more 1930s, with the short curls, the style/cut of the dress, the lighter (possibly crepe) fabric, and her burgundy lipstick . I can totally see how that is accurate though as Sarah is in her 30s/turns 30, so she was born at the latest 1990. Let’s say Sarah’s mother had her later in life, like her early to mid 40s, so her mother (in theory) was born at the latest 1950. So Sarah was probably sent back to 1950 and gave birth to her own mother, as it is implied Darren impregnated her. Even back then, people would have thought her out of place, as she showed up looking like it’s about 10-15 years earlier. I can totally understand people finding her crazy, with her claiming she’s a time traveler “from the future” dressed like it’s the past. 🤷🏼♂️
if the whole time travel alien thing is real my guess is sarah have at least survived till the Reagan administation. so if Sarah at age of 30 gose back in time to 1950 ,lives till around 1970 when alot of people geting kick out of metal care centers then she dies.
i dont think she will be going crazy once she is certain she have gone back in time . i mean at that point she is not crazy anymore is just how to deal with the paranormal. she probably settle down get married have kid till the alien mess with her agian at her 50 end up make her crazy and get send into a metal ward.
Nope Oh I agree, it’s just people might have found her odd/out of place even then, she did eventually go crazy but I assume people always thought she was a bit weird.
@@BB-ni8vx i wonder if this is the aliens testing if artificial destiny or willing self fulfilling prophecy.
i mean the aliens would pick her up and force send her back anytime really but they only did when she is fully committed to go back in time. because all it would take is for her to say no at some point and the cycle is broken.
Me: Oh hey! Foundflix posted a new video!
Also me: *see's title*
Me again: oh... WHAT THE F***
Me after hearing the intro: Ok now I'm confused
Me finally at the end: This is the craziest movie I have ever seen, by god it's over
FINALLY!!!!!!!!! I’ve wanted you to explain Horse Girl since it came out! HALLELUJAH!!!
Where can I watch it
@@Luvnap netflix :)
I think the end of the movie is that she accepts that she’s the clone of her grandmother and she goes to the past because her grandmother is from the future.
I honestly thought it was going to be about beastilaty
GHOST AKA CLUE same
I got the horses in my puh
GHOST AKA CLUE I mean, you can go on porn hub and search up ‘horse girl
LMAO
I thought so too
what if she actually was her grandmother but was developing dementia or something and she thought she was younger. her roommate could have been her care taker and such.
I watched the first two minutes and watched the movie, it’s actually a trip and I liked it a lot. I loved the time loop ending and the ton of little details that foreshadow stuff? It’s weird and creepy and it gets a whole nother level of trippy.
I 100% thought this was a movie about that one girl that runs around on all fours like a horse.
Thank u thank u thank uuuuuuu!!! Watched this and i needed someone to talk to well listen at this point...
Thanks to foundflix now i have "seen" every horror movie ever made.
Flix: Let me introduce you to a shaving commercial and have a clean shave
Also Flix: On the next scene, I won't have a clean shaven face despite me showing you a shaving commercial.
When Darin becomes the other Darin and Matthew poped up I died
Bro. I'm on the binge.. Words can't describe. How much i enjoy these videos. Thank you for sharing these. They made my day.
This is actually a pretty great representation of schizophrenia.
My take on the scratches and horse in the parking lot:
If you only see the time travel/cloning narrative as symptoms of her mental illness, the scratches (seen by Nicki) and the tail end of the horse (seen by Joan) might imply that the people close to Sarah were already catching glimpses of her mental illness, even before she realized (along with the audience, since she's our protagonist) that something was wrong. We're not _truly_ seeing something from Joan and Nicki's pov, we're seeing their reactions to those occurrences through Sarah's eyes. When people develop schizophrenia, those close to them often remember early indicators that something was _off,_ long before the paranoia and hallucinations fully take over. Nicki sees the scratches and knows Sarah must have made them, but gets no explanation of how or why. Joan hears or sees something disconcerting or manic in Sarah's behavior during that conversation, but Sarah interprets the worried, unsettled expression as Joan's response to glimpsing the warped reality only Sarah's aware of.
me when i heard time skip "King Crimson"
He just works
My favorite part of this entire video is Mr. Found Flix shaving and looking quite dapper. Dude must be Portuguese, my ex bro in law looked just like him and was highly intelligent too. I lost that friend ship with the break up and sensei Found Flix makes me feel like I have a friend back. Thanks bro
Interesting that she's so entranced by her striking resemblance to her grandmother, as people with schizophrenia often times struggle with facial recognition (researching schizophrenia is what made me realize i'm not exactly bad with names, but can't actually recognize faces well)
I have a horse girl in my class :) kinda scared now
Turn her into lasagna before she can get you D:
