4 Movie Curses With Unexpected Upsides - After Hours 

It's 2024 and I still miss After Hours

has anyone else watched so much After Hours that they instantly knew where this episode was going from the intro?

Okay, did anyone else get severely creeped out when they noticed everyone else inside and outside the diner were just standing there staring at the group at the end. C'mon guys, I came here for the comedic conversation, not a brush with a freaking horror movie.

You know what? I absolutely would watch a sitcom about these four.

They talked pop culture in the desert once...

This episode is fucking meta and I love it. Just like I love Katie's hair. And raisins. YOU CAN FIGHT ME ON THE RAISINS. THEY ARE DELICIOUS.

I think I'm watching this too late at night, but those people staring into the diner creeped me the fuck out

the tv show where a person uses the "sixth sense curse" to their advantage is called ghost whisperer lol

Feel like After Hours gets more meta every episode.

I've watched After Hours WAY too much. I caught the repetition immediately...

I am still watching in 2019, I miss Daniel O’Brien and the gang this man was hilarious to me

Correct answer: Beauty and the Beast. The Beast curse is only a curse if you think the human form is perfect, or if your self-worth is based on how others perceive you. If you're okay with change, you get... A) Increased endurance (super-human levels). B) Increased strength (super-human levels). C) Increased agility/mobility (super-human levels). D) Increased senses (super-human levels). E) Bonus: Smelly sweat glands are replaced with fur, which considering he lives in a colder region, would actually be beneficial. The only real down-side is that his servants are tied to the curse and need to be saved. But the beast himself would benefit greatly from it if he weren't so vain about his previous appearance.

I specifically recall them trying to cross the desert, and getting into one of these conversations... wait, they never made it out of the desert, did they?

Depending on how you get the power, the Ghost Rider's curse is pretty awesome. You're basically immortal, you get to take out the worst scum in your neighborhood, and you look like a fucking badass while you do it. And you don't even have to sell your soul. Some Ghost Riders have just had enchanted vehicles that give them power. That's pretty awesome.

1. Katie's hair looks fantastic 2. Pretty sure Soren already has the Curse of the Black Pearl since he seems ageless and unchanging 3. Is it textual that the monster from It Follows sexes you to death? I thought it was a more mundane, neck-snappy kind of death? 4. Is Soren eating a tomato burger because that is just an absurdly thick tomato slice

8:13 look at the background characters, they know this batch needs to be wiped, this is the firefly episode all over again, can’t run a simulation without them eventually becoming aware, happens too goddamn much, hopefully they don’t have a Deadpool discussion, or we’ll have runners again, dammit swaim

I wish they would make After Hours, and OCPD more often. I wait patiently for these.

I love after hours.... hope it never ends!!

Ghost Rider used his curse as a super power.

Anyone else have that day each week where they rewatch all the After Hours, and another day where they rewatch the OPCD?

On Søren's burger, why is the cheese on top of the tomato???? Hear me out -- If you put the cheese on the beef patty for the last minute or less that it is on the grill, the cheese will get JUST melty without running everywhere. The surface of the beef patty, covered in peaks and valleys, has a lot of surface area for the cheese to melt into, blending into a meaty, cheesey goodness. Yum! --If you have a layer of cheese in between the tomato and the bun, you risk getting tomato juice everywhere! The porous surface of the sliced bun is the ONLY part of a burger that will absorb tomato juice. The high fat content of the cheese and beef will seal out the water-based tomato juice, any lettuce will only channel the juice onto your hands/plate/table/pants. Those are the two biggest pros of putting tomato next to bread and cheese on the beef patty.

Katie's new hair looks good

These old "after hours" videos are the best content cracked made, I hope they can bring back this type of brilliance

The problem with Sorens idea is he'd have to steal the whole chest of gold rather than one piece, so whether or not he bled on a coin and put it back in the chest, the stolen chest full of gold would still be stolen and the curse would remain

Holy shit, Soren really hasn't changed at all in the million or so years they've been doing this...

AFTER HOURS LAUGHTER FLOWERS UNITE YOUR POWERS!!

As a women in the Roma culture, THANK YOU SO FUCKING MUCH!! I get it this video is a skit, but at least someone said it!

It’s been two years and this series still holds up

Wait, they are all playing characters of themselves in the diner, but the characters are realizing that they only exist in the diner? Meta.

OMG how cute is katy with white hair

Barbosa says when talking to Elisabeth on the Black Pearl, and I quote, "This is Aztec gold." So yeah it definitely is Aztec gold.

How do we know the pirates in Pirates really look the way they look in the moonlight? Is there something special about moonlight that sunlight doesn't have? They seem to have muscles, given how they move. But they don't look like they have muscles in the moonlight. Maybe the Aztec gold just curses them to look horrifying, which in their case kinda helps them do their job?

The people outside were deeply deeply disturbing. Also is it bad that I recognized the raisins thing immediately? Lol I watched these way too much

Didn't they have a 'stranded' episode?

There are worse curses than living an endless loop of a low-budget version of the opening of Reservoir Dogs...right?

Holy fuck the people in the back towards the end.

Is Soren's shirt on backwards? Doin great buddy, feel better.

Michael: "Mine's you guys. I love you guys." Everyone else: -ignore- Me: -high pitched- "Awwww! Wait...Are those people standing in the window just watching them? That's creepy af."

Ok, to comment on the 'The Ring' curse, someone would have to be the last person to watch it. All 6,999,999,999 people would have seen it, and then one last guy or gal would finally get a link to it, watch it and have no one to send it to. They'd have to watch it, and know for the next week there wasn't a single person on Earth they could show it to, just waiting to die. Kinda upsetting if you think about it that way. Oh well, an eternal Diner with your friends doesn't sound too bad though.

by far my favorite show on youtube. i hope you guys keep making this forever!

2010 Oct 18. WHY BACK TO THE FUTURE IS SECRETLY HORRIFYING!!! I knew it, i'm not crazy. I'm on to you After Hours....

I'm waiting for the fanmade Cracked lore video's. Of course I'm waiting for someone else to do it, I've got precious time to waste myself.

I cant help but laugh everytime I see Soren's animated face. He just strolls in grinning and then finishes with smug satisfaction. It cracks me up so hard XD XD XD

I have seen this episode at least 10 times. I just noticed the background characters staring at them at the end. I've still got chills. Nice work, all!

In Sorren's defense, Just get a needle and freeze some of your blood. Then measure out a small drop for every time you return the gold?

Ooh wait. Figured it out. It's a Groundhog Day thing, right? Like having Bill Murray's curse from Groundhog Day would be a decent superpower bc you're immortal and clairvoyant? Aaaand I'm guessing...Katie has it. Hence different hair, same scenario? I guess it could also be Soren, since I'm calling this shot at 3:00, so Dan and Mike have already gone. But Soren already got a time abuse power in the Best Superpower episode, so I'm stickin' w/Katie.

I love the call back to the raisins from season 1. This was awesome!

Thank you for the throwback! it was needed

"They're bright, they're blooming, and one day they'll die" :')

The ending is spooky!

Thank you for posting so many great videos. I had a hard time finding this channel before because all I could remember was the 4 of you talking at a Diner. Took me about 8 google searches to find this show again. Only reason I subscribed to Cracked....which I did 15 minutes before posting this comment.

Addressing the "Subscribe and Stuff" at the end: Am I misunderstanding something? You are saying that the gold in PotC is NOT Aztec gold? Because it is. Barbossa calls it "Aztec gold" when he is talking to Elizabeth B: "You don't know what this is, do you?" E: "Pirate Medallion" B: "This is Aztec gold..." Maybe I'm just going crazy... or maybe staying up 2409 days straight to catch every After Hours video has me sleep deprived...

Whoa. Blonde Katie. Short & blonde looks good on her.

Swedish person here. Michael Swaim, please accept my official invitation to Sweden for your future in the sex assassin business.

I'm not usually one to do this but Katies new look is awesome.

another negative of seeing dead people is that you live in a world were if you die you are stuck in our world but no one can hear or see you except 1 breathy little kid and Daniel

As a full-blooded Hungarian-born Roma (half-Romungro and half-Lovari) who had to be adopted by White Americans just so I could have a loving family and grow-up in an accepting society, Katie's remark about the Romani means so much to me. :) This is all of the validation I need.

That opener seems familiar.

You guys rule! Ive been watching this show since it started and to see you fellas do that reference in the beginning just gave me them feels. I really hope you guys keep this show going for one hell of a long time.

Katie you look absolutely fantastic with your hair like that! Also, the makeup really compliments your hair! :)

why are people creaping behind them

Only reason i stay

"...help us out more." Also Katie's new hair is great.

This is my FAVORITE series from Cracked. Please, never stop doing this.

im suffering from a severe case of deja vu...

holy crap she looks really good with that hair

love the ending that was surreal for someone who watches since 2012

It occurs to me that what Daniel is suggesting is basically the show Ghosts, and the protagonists of both versions of that show do get certain benefits from being able to see ghosts.

so they deliberately had people watching in the background in the end, Huh

this video broke the 4th wall great video

Oh shit that call back to that earlier After Hours really fucked me up. I had to read the title again, and then re-check the release date to make sure I wasn't losing my mind xD

Where my 2023 viewing crew at? Yup, still here, still watching, always watching, never leaving. After Hours is life,

I LOVEEEEE that Katie changes her hair so much and i LOVEEEEEEEEE this new hair style!!!!

THE ONLY REASON I'M SUBSCRIBED

I love that laugh at the end. Don't know why...but it's adorable.

I'm so happy this show is still around.

Aaaww, look how cute Michael was :3 Katie, you definitely got prettier somhow.

umm the girl I forget her name looks like gerard way from welcome to the Black Parade

I love After Hours and how meta this episode was I also love how everyone changed so much...except for Soren, he didn't change at all Great job Anthony, Winston, Chase, and Starline

I'm diggin the new dew Katie ,love it. your amazing .

Wait... If Starline is Katie's brain... and she gives Katie food.... Does that mean Starline is a manifestation of Katie's thoughts that telekinectically brings Katie food?!?!?!?!?!?!? (With or without raisins.) 4:09

The Mummy: That being mummified alive thing basically made him a god.

going to sleep while listening to after hours helps keep night terrors at bay. So thanks for that. Also listening to Obsessive Pop culture disorder has the same offect. Thank you DOB

So sad this ended. Watched this series when it first came out and After Hours and It Must Have Happened were my favourite things to watch when I was in high school:)

Is that sourcefed crew in the background?

Yes! Finally! *Love* After Hours!

Give us more After Hours,dammit. Only reason why I subscribed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still watching in 2022. These guys make me happy

So when are we going to acknowledge the elephant in the room? Why is Soren wearing a shirt?

Best After Hours for a while, at least after hours since the last After Hours.

This whole video is a gem, but I truly fucking love Daniel's delivery on the whole "you don't mean.... Oh that is what you mean, huh " speech. Just in one speech you more or less sum up his character. Just so funny.

Katie's hair is so insanely fabulous I had to restart the video four times because I was thoroughly distracted by it and wasn't listening to anything they said.

Haha! More and more people appear standing and staring in the background as the video progresses. Reminds me of Inception, like they were realizing they were in a dream and the subconscious has noticed.

Today, my 10 year old daughter asked me what my favorite RU-vid channel was when I was a kid. I'm 34 next month. We're all suddenly aging so fast and I'm not ok with this!

This is definitely my favorite After Hours.

Love love love Katie's hair!!!

man swaim is so heartwarming. we love you too buddy. Lol :) soren im sick too.. sorry ur sick.. daniel keep up that hysterical shit your show obsessive pop-culture disorder rocks! and katie as always insightful and supportive.. also love the hairdo, reminds me of robyn.

Katie's hair is perfect! She looks really good. Also Daniel, for the 6th sense theory, there's a show with that premise, it's called Ghost Whisperer. The main character doesn't really get paid for her deeds, but she gets warm fuzzy feelings? I guess that's good, too.

And Katie calling out Daniel for saying the word Gypsy in a different video in a different series all holier-than-thou, while at the same time using the word, lol~

this episode is quite good well done
