My favorite horror movie of all time.... no gore... no childish horror show effects.... just pure dark thrills.... with amazing background score and storytelling..
I don't know if I'd say there was *NO* gore...it does have the main character *_Gordon_* administering a Transorbital Lobotomy (or 'ice pick' lobotomy) to more-or-less every supporting actor in the film's cast...even the worker they brought in to work in place of *_Hank_* the first guy Gordon administered an Ice Pick Lobotomy to, literally *for just* the last scene of the movie just so Gordon could give him an ice pick lobotomy after he'd given one to his nephew, his top worker, the character whom the story painted as being a genius, Mike, who demonstrated the act of giving an Ice Pick lobotomy while holding Gordon's nephew (Warren from *_Empire Records_* [1995]...) . The main plot hole I was able to find was that Mike listens to the recordings of Mary Hobbs' multiple personalities & when the doctor on the tape finally speaks to Simon during the recording labeled 'Session 9', the Psychological Poltergeist has Mary Hobbs murder her family by stabbing and cutting them up as an act of revenge for her brother Billy scaring her causing her to fall onto the porcelain doll she was given as a Christmas present which cut her up, so it's sort of an _'eye for an eye scenario'_ but when the same poltergeist possesses Gordon, he attacks them by giving them all Ice Pick Lobotomies (which only would cause them to sustain traumatic brain injuries, not kill them...) & none of them did anything to Gordon, if anything, I'd have expected Phil to have had a mental brake down and done it because of the mental breakdown he seemed to be in the midst of because his girlfriend Amy left him for co-worker Mike...
@@lect0n7 He only did the lobotomy to two of them. The others he knifed. They were all covered in blood at the end. I presume he killed the others as well after??
You say that but the Simon performance is very on the nose, I'd prefer it if he seemed totally normal and committed heinous acts, that'd be truly terrifying.
I am a horror genre freak and it's absolutely ludicrous how underrated this movie is. I've read listings of the greatest horror flicks ever made and none of them gave this film any mention. This was pure genius. The director masterfully created an atmosphere of dread without gore, jump scares, and ghost/monsters in the dark. Just......Simon..
@@momentumstocks3493 I saw this movie in spanish, because I speak spanish XD and I found Simon's voice more creepy in that version, than this... sorry for my english...
People are always looking for excuses about where evil hides and how it happens... this movie shows the viewer that evil lurks inside each one of us, especially when we're at our weakest. Great movie... stay strong people
Yes..i think this is the point. Given the right circumstances/ pressure and a mental breakdown and anyone can allowed Evil to take over. I am sure every killer has snapped first acted second.
Yeah the title session 9 is a reference to when you let it out, when you've reached the point and a true dark part of yourself takes over. It took 9 sessions for this doctor to finally get through to this personality, a parallel to how much stress Gordon could take. In the original ending there's a homeless woman who lives on the grounds and sees the whole murder spree go down and she too reaches her boiling point after seeing Gordon kill the last victim, and she kills him as he's crying and imagining his wife on the phone. But the director realizes this may have confused the audience.
@@shamusbob7969 this movie wasn't just about Gordon. We assume that Gordon killed everyone because we saw flashbacks of when he snapped on his family... but we dont know that for certain. Each one of them had an issue with each other and as the movie progressed it got worse. Nobody seemed to get along, like Danvers took ahold of each one of them and changed them. Caruso said it best when things got weird "its gonna get ugly". Rather than Gordo being the lone nutjob, in the end that at evil place possibly made them all kill each other.
I really hope they will never remake this masterpiece, I can just imagine them picking this up, everything going smoothly until he starts to listen to the session tapes and we now actually see the lady (Mary), and then her speaking as Simon. And them showing the actual murders in bloody gore. Whole point I'm trying to make here is that the audio only and darkness is what sells this, never remake with actual footage of what happened, it will ruin all the magic.
The message about anyone call let "Simon in"....is the scary part. Right bit of pressure at the right time and "snap.." So is Simon the "bad/dark in every person below the surface.. we keep under control." OR the Devil?
They hype up the Simon personality as the terrifying one responsible for the murders, the anticipation builds as we don’t get to meet him until the end, when we finally meet Simon it’s even more disturbing than we imagined.
I just watched Session 9 AGAIN. Yes, alone in the dark. I've seen it now numerous times and i'm sure that Simon is actually an evil entity what was trapped in the hospital. I understand that some people say that Simon as an "personality" that lives in all of us. BUT: There is a very important scene at the beginning of the movie where the Session box is opened by Mike. He found the box, because the light close to the box wasn't working right. Now you clearly can say that this is the work of a ghost or an entity who want that Mike is going to see the box and let it out. With this the director clearly want audience to understand that someone or something got out and is now free. Watch the scene thinking it like this and you know what i mean. Other important scene is where Hank is leaving the hospital at night with the treasure he found. Hank clearly see a figure at the back of the corridor (one of the creepiest scenes ever) and almost same time then suddenly meets Gordon "sleepwalking". Now at this point Gordon's leg was in a very bad shape and he could not walk properly or no way to run. Because of this we may now assume that this "figure" couldn't be Gordon, but in fact SIMON in physical form showing that it is PRESENCE and in Gordon.
I was always under the impression that Simon was a representation of the evil that lives within everyone. Haven’t watched it in a long time, will have to watch again and see if my opinion has changed.
I'd say to a point, but it didn't actually possess anyone. I'd say it had an influence to find the evil in our subconscious and slowly push the buttons to unleash it. Which really, if it's an evil entity, would prefer it that way. Get them to be evil under their own free will
The dark character standing in the doorway is Hank seeing things in the dark as consequence to his fear and the dark. We all have this in the dark where we cannot see properly, that we may start seeing things that our mind turn into scary. It's not indicative of a supernatural entity. However cool theory you have there. I personally see the movie as a depiction of psychosis that lurks in all who are "weak and wounded" ie. Tired, hurt and lost. Some people just give into the dark side of their mind as they have no more the strength or will to fight it.
@Inferno Yes. Simon was the Devil. If you are weak and wounded you are open and fair game for him to exploit. I guess Danvers was like a kid in a sweet factory for him...
terrifying! one of the best horror films ever made. such a satisfying and sinister ending. this film needs a blue ray release! I've been struggling to find the DVD. it's in dire need of a re-release. films like this should be preserved. I hope it gets a re-release one day. it would probably do well considering the very strong following it has.
To me what makes this one of the best horror films I´ve seen is how it sneakes under your skin through its slow pace and you really don´t realize it before the the reveal of Simon towards the end. It´s like walking unknowingly into a trap of madness which opens yourself to the possibility of demons entering your conciousness and not realizing before its already too late. No conventional horror movie scares me, 99% of horror films have no effect on me. But this one freaked me out.
This movie doesn't give me nightmares or keep me up at night but it totally gives me the chills when I watch it or when I hear the audio. I recommend it to everyone I know who likes horror movies.
Imagine how scary this is for the doctor interviewing Mary, he’s looking at a woman with this voice coming out of her mouth. I bet she’s staring right into his eyes the whole time.
I thought about this...would he actually think "my god this is the Devil.." Or would his training kick in and chalk it down to another personality? I think the latter..He might give it a few moments thought before dismissing it. My 2 cents anyway..
For some reason I imagined this as being different. In my version he said "I hide out in the weak and the wounded". To me that sounds a lot more creepy, because he is HIDING inside them waiting for them to become vulnerable to him. Also the way the camera is flying around over the rooftops of the hospital whilst he is saying this is really unnatural and unnerving too. As if it is the POV of Simon flying overhead to find his new victim to "hide out" inside
Hi my fellow Session 9 lovers... So there is scene where they are being shown around the asylum and Gordon is running ahead of the other two likes he knows the layout... What was that about? There must be a meaning to this? Former patient? Was visiting the asylum in the nights before the official look around?
He murdered his family before the first day he was living in Mary's old room. It up to interpretation but he could have been an old patient or have suffered from multiple personalities like Mary
I think Simon is not psychological but I think he is some kind of malevolent force that came to the hospital with Marry and after she died he attached himself to the hospital and then attached himself to Gordon because he was so vulnerable
For anyone wondering or confused, simon lives in the weak and the wounded, the way he was able to enter Gordon was because gordon was going through a stressful time with his failing business and newborn, he was vulnerable and that's how Simon was able to enter him and control/push him to murder his family and his co-workers
We used to watch this movie at the police/fire academy which was a former 1906 Sanatorium. Scared everybody bleepless. Place was totally haunted for real.
Ceebee 11 no it’s not. It’s a fallacy. What’s even better is knowing that Mary had the simple hatred of being embarrassed and broken to unleash her hatred on her family. She wanted to make them pay
@@Zidane0724 I would say you're both wrong... Simon being some inter-dimensional alien that has a taste for human suffering or doing some sick experiment makes for an even bigger twist, and that WOULDN'T be fallacy. :)
Billy and Princess were manifestations of Mary. Split personalities, but they were her. But Simon is external. He "introduces" himself and "invites" himself in, etc. Chilling movie.
He got in because he lives in the "weak and the wounded" Gordon was going through it with his failing business and his newborn child stressing him out. That's how Simon entered him because he was vulnerable
As scary as Simon is Billy and Princess still creep the ever loving hell out of me. Dissociative Identity Disorder is nothing to laugh at knowing it's not some fake horror movie trope. That deep level of PTSD and psychosis terrifies me knowing we could be but one traumatic experience away from being where these patients were. Especially in a sanitarium like this very real and infamous one is.
Maybe I'm in the minority here, but to me Simon isn't a demon, he's a personification of human evil. I think it is scarier if you think of Simon that way.
My only criticism is that the characterisation of ‘Simon’ seemed a little bit cartoonish and overplayed. It would have been even more terrifying to make Simon personable and charismatic yet subtly and deeply sinister, his manner hiding the true intent of his words; how you might imagine a real demon.
I disagree....thought it was spot on. Just so confident,....not one care in the world and supremely powerful. Knowing there was no end of people there for the taking....
The best part of this movie is that is was well done in all aspects. The scariest part of the movie is shit like this happens every day. Masterpiece in psychological horror. There is not even a close second.
My favorite horror movie of all time.... no gore... no childish horror show effects.... just pure dark thrills.... with amazing background score and storytelling..
You said it all. Unique movie.
completely agree
EXACTLY👍👊 No CGI needed. The atmosphere, location, and gruesome real back history uses our own imagination to scare us.

I love horror like this. The type that'll worm Its way inside your mind. No jumpscares. Just good old fashioned atmosphere, and tone.
Yes. I hate the "slasher" horror movies like Saw.
I much prefer the psychological ones. This was one of the very best.
@@momentumstocks3493 i love slashers but i agree that the best type of horror is psychological, slashers just aren't scary.
After I saw this it easily became my all time favorite slow-burn horror, forget the classics, this movie will always have a special place in my heart
Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't
You say that but the Simon performance is very on the nose, I'd prefer it if he seemed totally normal and committed heinous acts, that'd be truly terrifying.
Session 9 is a work of art when it comes to horror. It slowly gets under your skin and it stays there. I love it!
The movie doesnt end when the credits roll.

Even made Will Smith slap Chris Rock
"And where do you live, Simon?"
"I live in the weak and the wounded, doc."
It screws with your mind for sure I remember watching this a long time ago alone...never again
Jesus the ending scene of this movie gave me chills...god it was so dark, evil and sad at the same time. Fantastic film, though
Yeah, it was really low budget too... Another reason why it was fantastic. Got to love those kind of movies.
I really hope they will never remake this masterpiece, I can just imagine them picking this up, everything going smoothly until he starts to listen to the session tapes and we now actually see the lady (Mary), and then her speaking as Simon.

I totally agree. Leaving the details up to our imagination is part of the horror
Spot on, Simons voice was actually done by a woman named jurian hughes
This gives me the chills every time. Just listen to this alone in a pitch dark house. That's a true test of manhood.
The message about anyone call let "Simon in"....is the scary part. Right bit of pressure at the right time and "snap.."
So is Simon the "bad/dark in every person below the surface.. we keep under control."
OR the Devil?
A good horror movie leaves you fightened of something in the external world. A masterpiece like Session 9 leaves you afraid of yourself.
"They always do." Creepiest three word I ever heard in a horror movie.
"so I...introduced myself..." In just a couple of minutes this voice managed to establish itself as iconically evil
I haven't heard a more sinister and otherworldly, disturbing evil voice than this.

They got it spot on. For sheer creepiness.
And what's the coolest part is Simon is voiced by the very same actress as Mary and all her other alters.
@@roxie5693whoa. How did they do that? Any behind the scenes for this film?
@Spartain14 jurian hughes voices Mary and all her alters :) I'll see if I can find a vid and post the link here
I love Horror like this. No cheap fake outs, and no reliance on jump scares. Just good old fashioned atmosphere, and tone.
After listening to this with the score and voice and setting I sat there speechless.

This is probably my favorite psychological horror movie.
Imagine how scary this is for the doctor interviewing Mary, he’s looking at a woman with this voice coming out of her mouth. I bet she’s staring right into his eyes the whole time.
aceventuraify That would be terrifying
What's funny and ironic is these voices; Billy, The Princess and Simon was all actually voiced and recorded by A Woman, believe it or not.
I thought about this...would he actually think "my god this is the Devil.."
Or would his training kick in and chalk it down to another personality?
I think the latter..He might give it a few moments thought before dismissing it.
My 2 cents anyway..
When I first watched the movie I thought the entities in the sessions were demons that possessed Mary and Gordon.
Simon represents personal demons.
@@HauntFreak13 But it could be both. The devil can only be allowed into the minds of the weak and the wounded...
For some reason I imagined this as being different. In my version he said "I hide out in the weak and the wounded". To me that sounds a lot more creepy, because he is HIDING inside them waiting for them to become vulnerable to him. Also the way the camera is flying around over the rooftops of the hospital whilst he is saying this is really unnatural and unnerving too. As if it is the POV of Simon flying overhead to find his new victim to "hide out" inside
You can tell, this isn’t Mary. I don’t even mean it’s one of her other personas. This “Simon” is clearly something else…
One of the most chilling, sinister voices I’ve ever heard
What are you doing here? What are you doing here? What are you doing here?
This gives me the creeps every single time! I can't watch this movie again.
Hi my fellow Session 9 lovers...
So there is scene where they are being shown around the asylum and Gordon is running ahead of the other two likes he knows the layout...
What was that about? There must be a meaning to this?
Former patient?
Was visiting the asylum in the nights before the official look around?
I've not seen it in quite a while but isn't Gordon already meant to have been living there ever since what happened?
Yeah didn’t the security guard say patients always come back or something?
He murdered his family before the first day he was living in Mary's old room. It up to interpretation but he could have been an old patient or have suffered from multiple personalities like Mary
Creepiest part of the movie
see this creeped me the heck out but what creeped me out even more was the "Do It Bryan." and the way it sounded
I think Simon is not psychological but I think he is some kind of malevolent force that came to the hospital with Marry and after she died he attached himself to the hospital and then attached himself to Gordon because he was so vulnerable
Stayed with me forever.
hello doc
Loved that movie!
This is a most wonderful horror villain.
Do it, Gordon.
The first time I watched this, I was by myself.......So that won’t be happening again.
For anyone wondering or confused, simon lives in the weak and the wounded, the way he was able to enter Gordon was because gordon was going through a stressful time with his failing business and newborn, he was vulnerable and that's how Simon was able to enter him and control/push him to murder his family and his co-workers
What's funny and ironic is that The voices; The Princess, Billy and Simon are All Recored and voiced by A Woman. Juarian Hughes. Lol.
We used to watch this movie at the police/fire academy which was a former 1906 Sanatorium. Scared everybody bleepless. Place was totally haunted for real.

Simon's voice scares the piss out of me
If you ever hear that in your head.....you are in BIG trouble
Hello ASSSSHHHHHHH."
Thanks for this!
Sounds like a no sleep podcast story haha
This is. The darkest. Horror movie. Ever.
I think about this a lot.
Definitely the creepiest part of the movie.
So Simon is self preservation? Some sort of fight mechanism? That is what I understpod him to be.
Who do you think would win in a fight? Simon from *_Session 9_* or Hank from *_Me, Myself & Irene_*
One of the creepiest voices I've ever heard
loved it
My ultimate horror flick ❤️
They took what I said out of context. I mean not really but still. You don’t have to out my business like that lol
I believe that Simon was just a different personality of Mary's fractured psyche and Gordon was totally insane not possessed.
The NUMBER of likes 🙀🙀🙀🙀
how did simon get in gordons head is what im always curious abt
Billy and Princess were manifestations of Mary. Split personalities, but they were her. But Simon is external. He "introduces" himself and "invites" himself in, etc. Chilling movie.

Especially in a sanitarium like this very real and infamous one is.
This is the voice actress for Mary with her voice lowered it creates a wild effect
I never had chance to observe dissociative disorder :(
Neither did we.
Wow, this movie really made me scared of the name Simon
its scary that simons voice comes from a woman in real life too
Think this could be applied to every murderer out there.
Think of cases like Chris Watts.
All the personalities done by the same woman.
Nope, Simon is a genius loci... a sort of demon, I believe.
@@queercaballo he's talking about the voice actress who portrayed all of Mary's personalities
And so they wouldn’t get mad, I told her, to cut them up too.
Can’t argue with that sound logic
could have been way creepier without the music, in my opinion
Maybe I'm in the minority here, but to me Simon isn't a demon, he's a personification of human evil. I think it is scarier if you think of Simon that way.
Simon lives in all of us

The best part of this movie is that is was well done in all aspects. The scariest part of the movie is shit like this happens every day. Masterpiece in psychological horror. There is not even a close second.
It does happen every day. Watch the news.
Man kills family...Women kills babies, etc...EVERY DAY.
They let me do it Doc...they always let me"
Too much use of the word "Doc".
The laugh…. Is so… FRIGHTENING!!!!
