A fence wouldn't have solved the problem. We see that she's able to control everything on the lawn, including the sidewalk, the pipes underneath the sidewalk, the trees, the grass, the fence would have only given her more stuff to control.
Right. It could have just pulled it under anyway like with the sign. The other fences were off of the property, so it couldn’t mess with them.
Even if he did try putting up a fence, if she didn't want it she easily could have gotten rid of it.
I’m just imagining someone walking on the sidewalk and a fence post just smacks you across the back of the head and gives you a concussion after reading that.
Yeah totally!
@@Mehetti Exactly. She only let him put the signs up cause she didn't want people bothering them anyway.
Monster house was always like... the IDEAL spooky / Halloween movie to me as a kid. It's genuinely unsettling, but only just so. I think it's one of the starts to me knowing that animation isn't expressly for children alone.
This and Coraline
@sherylannd6813 i actually never hit Coraline until I was an adult, but yeah, Coraline too.
@sherylannd6813 oh! Wasn't there one called Nine that was kinda like that too?
@@itsCaptainEli9 was awesome, rewatched it recently
@Orion_44 I forgot if it was Nine or 9, I knee it was particular. I never actually watched it though, just recall it usually comes up.
Surprisingly they intended to make an even darker film. The people who were swallowed would not survive, the children would use bullies who chased Chowder and DJ to trick the house instead of the vacuum cleaner... they also cut several scenes inside the house because it would have been too scary. I love this movie so much, it’s my favorite animated movie since I was just a kid.
@@Art-X-W I don't think Coraline is darker (unless we're talking about the book)
True
@@hellermorais1424I think he meant the book
Same here it's my favourite animated movie the house is so scary and the Design is awesome. Like how the fuck did they make a house look genuinely creepy
Now I wish there were/was going to be a Director's special edition, giving us the darkest possible version of this movie.
49:46
1- she is too big to move it's better to leave her there
2- he technically kidnapped her from the circus so he can't ask for help
I mean is it kidnapping if she wanted to leave?
@@kristophersy773 Well, my best guess: She was property of the circus. That would technically be slavery though, so if this happens in our same world, then the guy would be like, about 170 years old, so don't think so
Not to mention it looked like it happened in the 60's, maybe 50's. Telling someone that his wife fell to her death and cement just happened to pour over her is gonna look and sound hella sus.
I love this movie. Fun Fact: Skull the pizza guy is voice by Napoleon Dynamite.
Huh i was wondering why he sounded familiar
🤯
I'd like to suggest Hoodwinked. It's another one of those movies from around this time that's way better than it looks like it'll be, but rarely is talked about.
yeah, but only the first one
Omg yes!!!
Thank you for the reco I was just thinking of what to watch today 😊
The first Hookwinked is such a funny and hidden gem, i'd put it on in the background while i cleaned all night at my old job.
@@allanasifuina896 huh I never saw the sequels... are they normal sequel material for disney dvd movies?
When Nebbercracker built the house (late 40s, Post-WW2 and 50s) it was normal to be buried on the grounds of the home when you died. That's why so many rural homes now have family graveyards still on the property. Pulling her body out of the basement would have required a specialist crew and a crane. And doing so would have taken her from the one place where she was happy and the only person she was happy with. He saved her the indignity of having to be lifted out via a recovery crew. He cut the wheels off her cart and lowered the cage down there to protect her tomb. We saw how fragile the thin concrete encasing her bones was once she completely decomposed. Its not just a shrine. Its her mausoleum.
This movie is such a classic lmao. As a kid I was incredibly scared of this and now it's just sooo funny. I also really like the twist, it's well done.
Yep. Back in 2008, the main menu screen on DVD always scared me to a point where I hid in another room and my Mom had to click play for me 😂
@@lilveltheplayer2164that's so real😂 we also had a neighbor who was a really mean old lady so I was pretty sure I'd get eaten by her house one day
@@lilveltheplayer2164SAME LMAOOO I also remember the packaging being super cool!! Man time flies
@@lilveltheplayer2164Yo finally I found someone like me the main menu scared me to death lmao. Everytime I saw the house just sitting there breathing creeped me the fuck out
One of my favorite childhood movies and I loved the game on the PS2 since its setting was mostly set in the house (that was somehow the size of a mansion) and they used water guns as weapons against the possessed furniture 😂 They also had "Thou Art Dead" as an arcade game in-game.
I had the Gameboy game they made for it, which was the same style too lol.
Trust me, the game is scarier than the movie.
@@derykjames620 dealing with those pipes as Chower was honestly the scariest parts of the game for me. They sometimes just come out of nowhere and suck you up lol.
The childhood memory i have about this movie is the very first time I went to hardees they happened to have monster house toys and I remember getting one that was the house maze with a metal little ball inside it and you had to maneuver it around
@@lMystic-wait, yooo, SAME! I remember that! I also had the crane with Chowder in it!
In answer to your question of why Nebbercracker never just built a fence around the house:
If you consider the traumatic fact that Constance spent much of her life in a cage, I don't think Nebbercracker had it in his heart to "cage" her like that, even in her new form as the house itself. Plus given her highly aggressive behavior, he didn't want to get her upset and simply stuck to signs and physically charging at anyone who came within reach of the house.
Also, in answer to why they didn't just move Constance instead of leaving her in the basement, I'm pretty sure she was a reclusive individual and wouldn't have wanted her remains to be moved from the one place that made her happy. Plus between the time she died to the present time of 1983 when this takes place, Her soul was probably already attached to the foundation of the house. So Nebbercracker has been "chained" to this place ensuring his wife doesn't bring harm to anyone around her; and vice versa.
I think because the last thing he did was promise Constance that he would never let anyone "hurt her" (which she emphasized that the house was "part of her") he could never leave except during the times she "rested," which was when he'd resupply and such.
And as for building the cage around her remains, it could have been to help "recreate" the happy memory of when they met. Every detail that Nebbercracker commits to doesn't seem convenient or sensible, but given the little we have to go by his wife and her unfortunate curse-like circumstances (not to mention the era they come from) it's not totally wrong in what he tried to do.
50:26 She's a 'giantess'. He would have run out of funds to finish the house if he'd successfully gotten someone to take her body out, and that was an _absurd_ distance to drop (possibly exaggerated for effect, but even so, dropping far enough to die on impact is dropping far enough that contractors are entitled to go "yikes, nah").
And that's _without_ factoring in "oh, she _is_ the house now." In the years since, anyone even misstepping onto the lawn was in trouble. Hiring people to come in and retrieve her body at that point would have been a moot try.
I love Monster House! Another hidden gem: Hoodwinked! The animation isn't all that (would benefit from an update) but the characters are memorable and the story was fun and interesting!
Halloween? Try "Invasion Of The Bodysnatchers," "The Birds" and "Fallen!"
The best part is the Goat
@@Hanmacx 🎵Be prepaaaaared
Be prepaaaaared
This lesson must be shaaaaaared🎵
😂👍
The sequel... not so much.
@@unclelink What sequel?
@@Paranuui there is a sequel to Hoodwinked, "Hood vs Evil."
30:50 This was always my favorite part of the movie simply because it's just random and that face he makes while eating the candy.🤣
Thats where the meme is from❤
Fun fact, the only safe place inside the house is the bathrooms Because if anything comes to life in there, the water pipes will break and the house will drown itself from the inside out.
Ohh really? 😮
Is that canon or a theory?
Laughs in the game
We need more animated horror movies, this one is so special for me cuz i never seen a movie so unique on its tone , i need some movie like this again SO BAD
I know this isn't animated, but I would like something similar to the 90s Goosebumps show.
Rip Fred Willard 1933-2020
The actor who played Nebbercracker his name is Steve Buscemi he was a New York City Firefighter from 1980 to 1984 with Eugene Company Number 55, the the Little Italy section of New York, the day after the September 11 attack in New York, he returned to his old firehouse to volunteer, he worked twelve hour shifts for a week and dug through rubble looking for missing firefighters, On May 25 2003 Buscemi was arrested wing 19 other people while protesting the closing of a number of firehouses, including Eugine 55
@Bryan McDonough Who Is Fred Willard?
@@iso-didact789 he voiced the dad in this movie
He voiced Melvin in Chicken Little
He was in WALL-E
He was in Family Matters, Roseanne, Sister Sister, King of the Hill, Hey Arnold,
He played Hank MacDougall in Everybody Loves Raymond
He played Frank Dunphy in Modern Family
He voiced Grandpa Murphy in Milo Murphy's Law
and last He voiced Pop Pop in The Loud House
@@BryanMcdonough Who was he in walle?
@@iso-didact789 Fred Willard
@@BryanMcdonough No I mean who was Fred Willard in walle.
Did anyone catch the "My mom's at the movies with her personal trainer" from Chowder 😂 implying his mom is cheating
🤣
So something pretty interesting that was in the bonus content of Monster House's DVD, they actually expanded on Skull's (The "Expert") trivia knowledge of Domus Mactibilis.
Apparently there are some mythological stories based on it where homes would usually be possessed by the vengeful soul of it's inhabitants; specifically in Greek mythology. They were generally people who were ruthless, tyrannical, and reclusive, usually resulting in becoming the house itself to devour anyone who came within reach. The thing is they were at a stage where they were identified as "golem" or something that wasn't quite at a dangerous level.
It was only when they'd consumed enough souls did they alter to a "demon" stage where their soul could never be saved, and they'd become a mindless creature who only sought to satiate it's hunger.
In one story, a Domus Mactibilis that was possessed by a particularly vicious ruler had been infiltrated by a team of villagers who decided to defeat it once and for all before it could kill more unfortunate souls that passed by. It was through their mission to defeat it that they'd left behind the knowledge of dousing the heart (or any source of heat/energy) to bring it down.
***Had TJ and the gang not helped Nebbercracker defeat Constance before she'd gotten a full taste of blood (since she failed to digest her victims in time), there was a high chance she would have turned and forgotten all about who she was, too.
Monster House lore goes hard
Monster House is a classic and fav for me! (Even though they look like Spirit Halloween decorations) Thank you SO MUCH for reacting to it! I watch it EVERY Halloween.
MONSTER HOUSE!? Yes! An unexpected reaction but a welcome one.
Yea 😂 awesome
My favorite movies
40:50 okay but honestly hearing it put this way makes the recent wave of popularity in analog horror and social media based ARG's make SO much sense (And if you guys like horror, you should TOTALLY do some reactions. Some of them are incredible, local 58, mandela catalogue, vita carnis, & wyoming incident, the sun vanished, and cicada 3301 as examples for both respectively). Not only is there technology at the protagonists finger tips in these situations, but it's sometimes being used against them or is in general a piece of the puzzle, and the fact the horror CAN be documented, but is being shut down in some way, is part of what's so frightening. Modern problems require modern solutionns
This movie is my childhood, I don't have enough hands to count how many times I've watched it
My personal favorite scenes from this movie would the plot twist backstory and the ending where Mr. Nebbercracker thanks the kids and returns the kids' belongings
I remember watching this in the theater and thinking "this is the most realistic animation I have ever seen" and looking at it now it's like "oof, that mocap is pretty janky."
Yeah same haha. Honestly it's not horrible though, especially compared to something like Polar Express. This will never happen, but this is actually a Movie i would love to see remade, make the animation not mocap and also add a few more scenes that got cut
@@TheDiamondSlayer1ok, the Polar Express is not that bad
Man, this movie is so nostalgic for me. My first scary movie, and I love all of the weirdness and the fact it ran with it. Glad you all enjoyed it!
I really wish they had made like show after this movie. Of dj, chowder, and Jenny being like mystery solvers of supernatural cases. Going to school, visiting mr. nevercracker. Jenny dating DJ.
bro they luckly survived against a giant house , that's enough trauma to dont't get envolved on super natural stuff
Or Mars Needs Moms, but better, more mean, and suspenseful.
Spiderwick Chronicles was also surprisingly intense for a kids movie.
Having it animated in motion capture would make it extra great
As motion capture has its uncanny valley, it can work in it's favor.
This and Paranorman are two of my favorite animated Halloween movies
(Yes, Coraline is good but I was spoiled by the fact the book is way better).
Okay now I NEED them to react to paranorman bruh I love that movie 😭
Sure, but the movie is still just as good. But the book is more... creepy with imagery, but the lack of 'character' interaction is something that hinders the book somewhat.
I'd actually argue that the movie was better than the book, especially with how it utilized the Other Mother. In the book, she didn't do much to hide the fact that she was a monster (she was already looking like the stretched-out, skeletal version of Coraline's mom, when she first appeared).
Fun Fact: this movie was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature along side Pixar's Cars, but lost to Happy Feet.
Oh lord this movie 😭😭 I love watching y’all’s reactions but my little sister watched this movie 2x a day for like a year she was obsessed 😂 I’ll power through it for y’all 😂😂
The fact they said they didnt know Steven Spielberg was involved in making this after them seeing the Amblin logo and talking about ET made me face palm as a movie nerd 😂
Now we need people to recommend them with “My Scary Godmother” Another Cartoon Network Classic for the Halloween setting imo
God I haven’t seen monster house in a hot minute, so you guys just not having any real cuts to this, this is a real treat.
Seriously one of the most underrated Halloween movies. Through all its cliches, it's charming and has great humor and adult jokes in it.
1:00:32 Chowder 3rd wheeling like crazy. Appreciate DJ not rubbing his nose in it.😅
I just have this movie cemented in my memory because when I was little, like probably 6ish, the first time I ever snuck out of bed at night was to go to my living room and watch Monster House alone, and I remember feeling so proud afterward that it didn’t freak me out
Absolutely loved this movie as a kid! Such an underrated work of art! Absolutely love your guys videos and reactions to these childhood gems! Can't wait to see what Halloween movies you have in store! I recommend Goosebumps the movie with Jack Black! Also Corpse Bride, Sleepy Hollow, Sweeney Todd, Edward Scissorhands, Hocus Pocus and Scooby Doo and The Boo Brothers and Scooby Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf! Perfect variety of Halloween movies 😁 🎃
My grandmother was my baby sitter. She was OBSESSED with the sci-fi channel and anything Stephen king and horror so I grew up on that shit now I straight up practice witch craft 😂 may she RIP cuz she was the GOAT of spooky stuff 🤧✨❤️🔥
god this movie was my childhood, shit used to come on cartoon network during Halloween
I want the doorbell sound effect from the "Ding-Dong Ditch" scene as a ringtone so bad
Hey, thanks for the sticker ads beside horror movies. Seriously, they help divert attention.
"This is nerve-racking. Pay attention to this ad for a quick moment."
This was a gem of a movie I watched as a kid and glad more people are finding said gem. Definitely a good start to the October horror vibes
Those creepy clowns that were "killing" people did not exist and literally only 1 person in the entire country during that time was even actually attacked by somebody dressed as a clown.
More than one if you count John Wayne Gavy’s victims.
Clearly I was exaggerating
Oh. Well now I feel stupid for believing that
@@itsbumbs605 I'm not saying you weren't, I'm just clarifying
@@Sonicsgirl13 Not your fault, news media and social media clout chasers were hyping it up a ton. Nobody is immune to propaganda.
Monster House is such an underrated Halloween classic. Every year in October I find myself watching it again almost 20 years later with my friends.
This is not the first video I've seen from your channel, but the extended discussion of basketball prices and how Chowder earned the money was the moment I decided to subscribe.
My take -- Chowder ABSOLUTELY got 20 cents per raked yard, and then got a dollar from his Mom 26 times. It's a classic Dan Harmon joke, wouldn't be out of place on Community.
Thank you for reacting❤❤, when I was a child this movie scared me a lot which is why it was one of my favorites and I rewatched it a lot, because of it I used to be scared at night but now I rewatch it and have fun😂😂.
Bro this was my childhood movie also this is the one I was terrified to watch but at the same time curious.
Man this one was a classic, definitely gave me the creeps at times.
Really great
My olny true criticism is the lack of background characters, and therefore their reactions from the ending fight.
Seeyoni: "So is it like a house full of monsters."
Oh, Seeyoni. You have no idea.
I love how we were to believe that Nebercracker possessed the house after he died. But it was his wife who was the house all along. What a twist!
this movie scared the shit out of me as a kid! i remember i had a painting of a house in my bedroom right across from my bed and the night after i watched the movie i made my dad take it off the wall because looking at it in the dark freaked me out and i couldn't sleep!
Whenever I get asked what’s my favorite movie I always say Monster House. I remember making a fort as a kid with pillows and blankets and watching it every time it came on tv. I’ve had to have watched this movie like over 15 times i had an obsession 😭
The fact that Chowder didn't die is what makes it a movie still for kids lol
💙🧡💜I love how you paused the movie just to attempt to solve an math equation based on pure speculation. 🤣
im really liking having fourth member in your reaction video and its really fun to see you guys discussion on various topic
"You make me want to throw up in tin foil and eat it!" The most random thing I ever heard when I first saw this 😂.
Oh I love this movie I’m so glad y’all reacting to it
When i was a kid, this movie was the most fucking scarier thing i've ever seen. I literally couldn't finished it without closing my eyes or getting out of my room. I love this shit.
1:04:10 poor Gordy
I've been twaumatized
Plus this movie and scary godmother have been the got to Halloween movies for cartoon network
Paranorman is another surprisingly good one. I picked up the DVD on a whim and I loved it
I love this movie, I’m very happy you guys decided to watch this amazing underrated movie, it’s one of my favorite childhood movies and it’s nice to see that you enjoyed it. And fun fact: this movie gave some kids nightmares because this movie is considered a horror movie for children.
Its not really that underrated anymore, its very popular the past couple of years.
@@Jason-..- That’s great if that’s true, I personally haven’t seen anyone talk about it but I’m glad that’s not the case apparently.
@@silvaguy7059 well, just by looking at the amount of reaction videos indicates that people still remember this amazing film
Paranorman is goated and not talked about enough. Yall should definitely watch that, I LOVE that movie. AND it’s stop motion
45:40 Fun fact: If you look closely when he steps out of the ambulance it’s on the driver’s side. This man joyrided the ambulance to save children 🫡
This was a nice surprise! I expected this for October. I watched this for the first time a few years ago and I was surprised at how much I liked it!
Really glad that everyone enjoy this underrated movie. Hope that 9 (2009) is on the list for this Halloween. To me it is always worth the watch.
As a child, this was true nightmare fuel
There was a video game based on the movie for the GameCube and I remember playing it when I was a kid.
Now that I'm older, I can see that the basement probably wasn't that far of a drop since they were on the ground floor. So she definitely WAS alive when she landed, it's just the concrete was so close behind her that it didn't matter.
Apparently my first and only babysitter made me sniff acetone so would i pass out and when my parents came home they would think i was asleep and when she got arrested she said in front of the police the very next day she was gonna make me drink it,i was just a couple months old
That’s horrifying and I hope she went to jail and had that on her record. She should banned from going near children.
I once had a babysitter nearly choke me to death with tissues because I couldn't stop crying.
I actually think they actually filled their water guns with pee I always thought.
That's why the house gagged
I have a tradition of saving this movie for only Halloween time... It just fits around that time... So I only watch it once a year... but I've seen it so many times I can recite lines....
This is one of the movies that I would watch on a weekly basis as a kid because we owned it on DVD. I could probably recite every line of this movie from memory 😂
Did not see this react coming. Loved Monster House when I was a kid, as well as the tie-in game.
This is gonna be a fun one.
36:19 Freeze Tree. For some reason this quote and the direct aftermath is still one of the funniest things from this movie to me.
It’s hilarious. You didn’t know that it was Steve Buscemi until the near end.
You guys should definitely watch the behind the scenes of this! This was also filmed using motion capture.
This video was alot of fun. Love your reactions. New Subscriber 👍
With the fence she could’ve taken the fence away as we’ve seen her sink objects into the ground
Love your group reactions, you guys are hilarious 😂. Could you add the film 'Paranorman' to your list of films to react to?
Me and my cousins watched this every Halloween growing up lol such a throwback.
I find it absolutely hilarious that this was freeking you out but it is a staple Halloween movie for me since i was younger. However Coraline scares the shit out of me, but yall said it was nothing. 😂
I have this movie on DVD. In the special features menu was an epic trailer for the movie Final Fantasy VII Advent Children.
48:53 ok let's say Nebbercracker actually built a fence, nothing's gonna stop Constance from picking up the fence and hurting kids with it, plus it would have to be connected to the other fences, which would then give her more to work with
I missed this movie! I remember when I watched it, I was honestly genuinely scared by the movie but absolutely adored it as well. Its like a really amazing good horror movie and being anle to see it again years later is just so nostalgic!
Bro this movie terrified me as a kid so much XD Looking back, I completely forgot the second half of this film. That or I was too scared to finish it 😅
Shoutout to my McDonalds toy that was the house with a tongue gimmick. I think you feed it plastic coins of the characters…?
We still watch this almost every year with the younger kids in my family in October. We do a pumpkin carving contest and Halloween themed activity day and it wraps up with watching monster house lol
Now that I’m in my 30s, I still watch it every year😂
i watched thar movie so many times on dvd. I liked looking a the menu waiting for the jumpscare lmao. Also, they don't say much on their backstory to make you fill in the gaps buts considering the cage it's fair to assume he was as much bound to the house as her, it seemed like a sanctuary of sorts, until she dies for good he never moved on, since i don't think the house was finished in a day it took some time until her spirit possessed the house.
I was just thinking about this movie yesterday and if anyone had reacted to it. 😂😂
I remember monster house. I used to watch that movie all the time! It has a good plot and such a plot twist!
I remember watching this on cartoon networks years ago in my childhood! It scared me quite a bit, but perfect for Halloween.
This is one of my favorite Halloween movies .
i remember seeing this in theaters when i was young. I was also 8 the summer it came out
Good Lord this movie frightened me so much to the point I was scared of other houses outside 😭😭 glad you guys loved it though!
This movie is my childhood one of my most favorite movies to watch during fall
Oh my God, it's been so long since I've seen this movie! An absolute classic. I'd watch it with my mom a lot as a kid. Since y'all are doing Halloween stuff, might I suggest 2009's "Trick R Treat." Similar vibe asthetically to this but the story is it's own thing. Definitely reccomend.
Let’s go!!! I love this movie.
Great vid! I hope you guys watch Twitches, with Tia and Tamara, or the Scary Godmother movies this year!
Loooved this movie as a kid. We watched it so many times with my brother. It holds up pretty well imo
I adore this movie so much. Rewatching it i notice so many little things. Especially with the house, theres so many moments where if the house is in the background you can see it moving and stuff. For example when dee is arguing with dj you can see it peeking through its curtains
My siblings and I loved watching this movie all the time ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Bruh my dad just randomly got me this dvd as a kid….
Never forgot it
