Characters: have normal cells Cinema summary: Okay, this was a HUGE mistake. Their cells might have been causing them to explode. I have been training myself since birth to not have such weaknesses. They need to start their cell training now before it's too late
The scene with Dylan exploding was filmed so fucking well. It actually made me gasp. I even knew it was coming because I read the book, but it still made my jaw drop just because of the cinematography of it
Thematically, it wouldn't make sense if we found out. The film was based on a novel, which itself was all about the sudden-ness of death. It can happen at any moment for any reason, and therefore you should live life to the fullest. The literal events of the film aren't as important as the metaphorical message. If there was a plotline where they explained it, it would ruin the point.
This movie wasnt based on logic, it was meant so people would understand that any of their friends, family members or just anyone can die at any time and you should not blame yourself for anything that happens in life.
The thing that is killing is a sexually transmitted disease. It would explain why only the seniors have it. As high school kids are always sexually active. The seniors most likely having sex with people in their grade or age group. Why the CDC don't always wear mask. Why the jock kids got killed first. The pills the government gave them worked. But some of the kids developed antibodies to fight against it. The boyfriend got it from the girl. Which why he eventually explodes. But didn't before because he was a virgin. Taking drugs slows the time down of explosion but doesn't stop it. Also when you have a HIV of some type you have to take medication pills for the rest of your life to avoid sickness and death.
I think there might be something to do with heart rate. The jock who exploded was making his heart rate rise because of him jumping up and down repeatedly. The chain reaction could've been from shock. The first victim could've been incredibly stressed due to the test(maybe). Cranberry's heartrate could've rose because she was scared of her parents finding out.
If its heart rate rising, then why didn’t like all of them explode? Im pretty sure none of them had normal heartbeat in those moments, they were all scared to death.
Nah. No way. All of the kids are dancing and running and stuff in tons of spots in the movie. Plus why would the first student blow then? They were just sitting there showing no signs of anything. There is no explanation. It’s a phenomenon that’s the whole point of the movie. It’s not about survival. It’s not about why, it’s just a theme. An idea. The idea is life can end spontaneously. And life needs to be lived. There is no way to survive this. This video is pointless, which is why he can’t come up with a solution either. The writer is basically sticking to the man. The man being people like us who want answers to why something is happening.
If they are quarantined, why are the doctors talking to them without masks or any sort of protection, and why are they all kept in the same room? What if only one person has it and they just infected everyone else?
Because they were treated like guinea pigs, they did not care about any one of them and only used them for experimenting and finding the cure so theres no reason why they should give them any protection if the scientists know they are all going to die just to test the "cure".
because they think one of the students is killing the kids but it doesn't work on everyone the same. for all they know a student planned to kill everyone at the same time. and it failed.
Masks are supposed to protect other people from the one wearing it. So if anything, the students should be wearing masks if they think it's an airborne virus.
Refreshing to see HTB saying things like "If my head is going to explode I'd at least like to be in the arms of a loved one." Instead of "Sacrifice everyone's lives for yourself."
"Now I realise this may be cold-blooded.. But I'd make all my family members try the causes for what I believe could be causing the explosion. This will give us valuable data, and we can always find a better family later!"
We need Cinema Summary and Nerd Explains. To be put in a death game together, to see who’s superior. Nerd Explains is definitely the more emotionally intelligent Cinemas just a psycho. And while we’re at it we can throw How to beat anime, Matpat and other people in they’re too.
I find it interesting that somehow the two channels have almost next to no crossover with what they cover. Films Nerd explains aren’t covered on CinemaSum and vice versa. Coincidence or coordination?
This movie says a lot, even if this is overdoing it. This really is about how kids can die at any time, not after growing up. Anybody can die at any time, not just the adults.
I mean, if they're sporting full on hazmat suits, there's probably gonna be a reason for that, and i'd rather come with them than find out what that is
I get the sense that this one is just meant to be taken metaphorically. I know that the mysterious cause of the explosions is something the film itself draws attention to, but I really don't think that's what the story is really about. The students trying to come up with some kind of explanation is more meant to symbolise how we find comfort in viewing our lives as predictable, and how fragile we are when we're confronted with the fact that tragedy strikes without warning or clear cause.
Attempting to rationalize things is basically how a lot of people cope with the fact that we are all going to pass away someday. It's an inescapable fate. Psychologically, most people, I think, are naturally able to not obsess over their own death.
"If your classmates started randomly exploding and noone knows who's going to die next what would you do?" would probably explode before i had time to think.
I love love love this movie, the ending is absolutely perfect. I’m glad they didn’t explain it, because that’s the point, things happen all the time in life with no reason, people die for no reason. I also love the representation of trauma, and depression. This movie was amazing, I both laughed and cried literally.
Theory: I think it's more on hormones or emotions, the one thing I found a little common is "fear". In this situation, as long as you fear something like "Is your girl/boyfriend still alive from the huge massacre?" or "Can we escape as a couple without worrying about the law?" which is what happens before they die, their response afterward lead to their deaths. The 2 previous sentences usually express fear, but the guy who exploded during the presentation was "brave" or "confident". The only reason there are survivors is that they will always feel guilty or be afraid of that massacre, that is unless you lose a large sense of fear in a short period of time. Saying "you should feel guilty and afraid" is probably the most negative thing to say, but as long as you live, you should always live in guilt and fear (that is for the characters in the story). Fear is proof that your imagination is functioning, but without imagination, you can never deduce which action to take next. However, the problem is the "chain" deaths, in which the theory of fear and guilt is lacking evidence, except when you think that the fear and guilt I'm talking about are the longing dread types. You wouldn't feel this type of fear or guilt during that massacre, yet your mind has to reiterate and return to square one (aka 0% in fear), understand the situation, and return way worse. The government thinks it's _____ or alcohol, but the real reason is that both of these items "relieve" you from any negative feeling, such as fear and guilt, in a short amount of time, which is why they died. The thing about sex is that you are relieved but there is such thing as PNC, but since it was the guy's first time, the girl would have more likely been alive up till now, the fear of not having what you want (in which the guy just did a thing he wanted, but the girl is afraid of losing him, same for the dude to her) TL;DR Be dead inside (which is pretty ironic) Do not lose or gain too much fear in a short amount of time, live in a steady constant of fear and guilt, or you will die. If you just experienced a massacre, do not let your mind understand, but keep the fear you had.
So either fear or anxiety which makes sense and yes anxiety is a branch of fear but it also branches off other emotions. Also for Brave too though. I believe the definition of brave is "to do something even when fearful". So even brave can get you killed if you're theory is correct. And if it is then basically do some H and I promise all worries and fear and emotion will leave even if you don't nod off 😂🤷 but obviously not everyone will do that so it's best to learn how to flip that switch or better yet, leave it off and learn how to become a psychopath (which means mind and disease or suffering ) or even sociopath (meaning companion, associate, ECT and disease or suffering) because the "disease" helps them "suffer" to not be empathic towards people, their emotion or even feel/empathy on your emotions as well. So maybe can find one and experiment and see if they ever explode and if so then you're theory would be proven correct unless I'm wrong which wouldn't be a first.
The concept of the movie is really cool, and you're covering it really well. I love your channel and watching horror movies are definitely better when you break them down. I've just got a couple things to say, and I mean no criticism or harm. I may have misunderstood or misinterpreted some things you say so sorry if I'm wrong. Here are my thoughts (be aware, it's quite long): Cells should not explode on a regular basis. They should implode, which is the process you explained called Apoptosis. Apoptosis is when they implode (what they're supposed to do), where all the organelles and enzymes are sealed in apoptotic pockets to prevent contamination into the blood stream or wherever this cell operates. Necrosis is when cells explode, starting a chain reaction as enzymes and other organelles float around (bad thing). Cases of necrosis are usually seen in frostbite or the bubonic plague as the part of the body turns black. None of it actually disintegrates, it just - to put it in a simple way - dies. Think of it this way, apoptosis is the cell being sent the signal through the death receptor, and it begins the apoptosis cycle, with no problems at all. Necrosis is more like when a cell is forced to die, so it's pressured by the condition it's put in, and explodes before it can even begin Apoptosis or sense danger. Asking vs Forcing. One happens everyday, and one is to avoid at abosolutely all costs. Cancer cells do not have working death receptors, so when other cells try to send them a signal to self destruct, they simply ignore that and continue multiplying. Radiation therapy is the only thing that works because these cells will not listen to anything else, which is why they extract healthy Stem cells to insert into the patient after the treatment to start creating healthy cells. But anyway, I don't think this is the case for the movie. Even though cells explode during necrosis it's on a molecular level, so the affect to the organism (in this case, humans) would be significantly different. Parts of the brain and bone to disinteelgrate wouldn't make much sense as well because when a person dies, no cells are left, but their skeletal structure remain. For decades, even. The strongest bone in the body makes up a portion of the skull, so it would require a tremendous amount of force, as you explained. And for it to get to a 4 meter radius, it would be nearly impossible. A mysterious toxin altering pressure built up in the brain or somewhere near the head could be probable though, because if there's gas at the end of the colon or rectum, the pressure would most likely build there and cause an explosion-like death. Unless this virus/condition is in the lymph nodes system, there's no way for gas to get into the brain from anywhere but lower than the lung (organ wise). It would have to be a pretty big mutation in how the body functions on a cellular level but it's so interesting to think about.. I'm only halfway through the video as I watch this, but my theories are that someone either had an explosive planted in the students brain stem, or somewhere near it, as that's the center main point to blow a head from the middle out. Though I'm not sure how anyone would have pulled that off secretly though. Or maybe these explosions are a new mutation in the brain as an emotional thing. Maybe getting too emotional leads to something happening in their brain and it sets off a reaction? Loving your runthrough of this movie and I enjoy lots of your summaries lots as well. They cure my boredom most days.. Keep it up!
i mean... the entire point of the movie is that death happens with unfairly and unexpectedly, that we just have to accept our mortality and of the others, and try to live life as best we could despite it. it's just like a car accident, school shooting, gas explosion, etc. its mostly down to luck who survives and who dont.
Unfotunatly a huge portion of people and country leaders decided that humans can control death by stop living live and isolating themselves and taking experimental drugs. Some countries live normal mostly and some developed themselves into dystopian nightmares.
You ever notice how every time someone explodes it's either right as or right after Mara looks away. It's almost like she's keeping everybody alive instead of dead because as soon as they aren't visualized in her reality they're a goner. The only thing that ruins that theory is there are times when Mara is looking at someone like Dylan or the guy with all the protective gear and they still explode ... so I 🤷🏻♂️
@@Some_Guy6 niiiice. Never considered that possibility but you know you might be right on that lol. Nooow I gotta watch those scenes again to see if she does. The ooooonly thing that ruins that theory is I'm sure there were other times when she was looking at people, blinked, and they still didn't die considering I think they say the average human blinks 15-20 times a minute (I dare you now to know that fact and try to go a whole minute without blinking ... it's really hard 🤣😉)
Alright, so I had a previous theory. But, what if it’s stress, or a form of overstimulation? Tests, embarrassment, sport, hell some kid exploded after her brother in a stressful situation. I feel like this may be some reason. The only issue with this theory though is the sex part, but other than that, it seems like a high plausibility
I was thinking it could be Anxiety. It could also be the title itself "spontaneous" could mean they explode by being spontaneous rather than spontaneous meaning they spontaneously explode.
I love watching movies through you. Movies I categorize as ”must have seen but doesn’t seem good enough to waste my precious time on”. And you always throw in interesting facts to back up your analysis of the movie and conclude your solution.
The heads didn't explode on a cellular level. The main character was hit by the jaw bone of her BF when his head exploded .So there are actually bones and skin fragments from the explosion
Imagine Cinema Summary does a collab with MatPat.My brain would literally explode with the knowledge they're discussing edited: Thank you for 600+ likes
I would just like to point out that pupils being large under bright light isnt always a sign of being high. There are people that have unusually large pupils though it tends to also be people with low iris pigmentation (grey/light blue/violet) and who are nearsighted. So when their pupils are all the way constricted they look unusually large compared to the norm and when fully dilated it looks like they have almost no iris. It's not a disease. It's just how the eyes developed. All it does is put these people at a greater risk of eye damage from bright light and give them slightly better low light vision. Source: I have this.
The only reason I’m surviving the apocalypse is because of this guy Edit: how the hell do I have so many likes- Edit 2: WHAT THE FUCK- WHERE ARE ALL THESE LIKES COMING FROM?!
18:57 Just time stamping my guess. I think that the explosions are caused by extreme emotions. The first girl was probably very stressed on her future or maybe an upcoming test. The drug dealers excited for their massive payout. The first Jock humored (?) about making a joke during homecoming. The second jock from everybody hyping him up. The asian from having fun at a party. Will edit if i am right or wrong at the end :) Edit: Bruh
If that's the case, I would immediately died. Also any one who suffers mood disorder (not medicaid) and those who suffer major mood swings during their period would be fucked.
I suppose that makes sense but first I wasn't sure how serious this movie was supposed to be and second I was assuming we were going to get an answer at the end of the video
Wow, this actually sounds like a really good movie. Lots of messages about group trauma, survivors guilt, and being open with people. Damn, thought there was going to be a B movie twist with a monster or mustache twirling villain, but nope, just a really tragic story.
This was this girl's first mistake. If I was in her shoes I would have flipped a coin 100 times and figured out my luck rate, of course humans can't be fully random, humans work based on patterns, instead of relying on my sense of luck I would get a random number generator and assign every odd number to heads and every even number as tails. Once I figure out how lucky I am I would see if my odds of survival were high, if not my first action would be to challenge Tyche, the Greek god of Luck, and if I could beat her on a coin flip she would make my luck unbeatable, therefore making me invincible to the exploding heads.
Some interesting theories about why they were exploding. Honestly it just seems like a device for the coming of age story and metaphor for living life to it's fullest. An enjoyable film with the only annoying mistake being mara's injury switching from right eye to left eye throughout😅
I just wanted to say, I really appreciate you being the only channel that has blurred wounds, gore, blood, or anything else like that! As well as greying out some scenes so it isn’t bloody red. I get extremely triggers by that stuff, but I find these movies (horror or anything) super interesting! So thanks for giving me a the ability to watch these!!
That is more so cause youtube nukes videos out of orbit if you show blood or even say the word "child " no joke. At least some people like it i suppose.
Yeah. HIV really boosts the immune system. Having every disease and getting treatment doesnt mean youre immune. People who have sex are probably happier than people who dont have sex and happier people are healthier because they are happy. And people who have sex probably live healthier lifestyles (some exercise, some healthy food, etc) and are healthier because of that. A person could be raped every day of their life but is locked in a dungeon and fed table scraps and will probably have a worse immune system despite technically having sex every day compared to someone who never has sex/masturbates but leaves their house every day.
What i love about this channel is, even tho he knows the answer to the problem, he presents solutions based on what the characters know or could find out at those given moments in time :-) now THAT is the best way to do these types of videos, coz if something happened irl u would know how to handle the situations step by step instead of relying on plot armor XD... LOVE UR CONTENT BRO o7 keep it up and stay awesome... PS: Just know that im kidnapping u wen the apocalypse happens, look for the armored bus with the spikes in front on the bumper XD
Hold up. For the drug angle to pan out, for something like weed or free basing, whatever the lethal agent is needs to have a high range of survivable temperatures. That rules out most biochemical substances. Biological agents can't handle this type of thing. To have only ASH remaining, we're left with a sci-fi scenario of a novel weaponized agent, nanotechnology. We're not quite there yet, but let's assume this movie takes place in a world where they are that close. What would the purpose of such a test be? And would this break many Conventions about testing on your own population? (Yes, I'm over-analyzing this, but so far the scenario does not match up well with suspension of disbelief.)
22:27 This is why doctors are reluctant to prescribe patients antibiotics unless they're confident the symptoms are caused by bacteria, not a virus. It's also why they avoid prescribing antibiotics too often.
I honestly have to believe that the cause of the explosions is hyper emotions. Perhaps fear, excitement, joy or more. This makes sense as everyone who had there heads exploded were affected with extreme emotions prior. For most students it would be extreme stress and fear of death. But for the two jocks and drug dealers they were over excited or happy by getting cash or new money or hyping up arguing against the government man/ football. I’m assuming the main point where you explode is where the emotions get far too high and kick in your adrenaline. So the way to beat it is by perhaps taking medication to make you feel nothing. Or be a sociopath
I think the reason why the main character didn’t die, is because when the girl exploded, her blood sprayed everywhere, reaching most students, and I think because of the blood, it came contact with other students, and the main character bended down, causing the blood not coming in contact. And last, have a damn good day
@@redguywins4802 on her shoes, not on her skin. If it hit her skin, she would have probably a higher chance it would have put her more at risk to explode
You’ve gotta hand it to this guy, he went and researched about cellular self destruction and the university of British Colombia, just to make a theory about how a thriller/comedy movie makes sense
I’ve been watching this channel for a while now…. It amazes me how I’ve learn more from this than I do in my actual science class. Oh and have a damn good day
One of the movies that there's really no explanation for things. And I liked it, what scares humans the most is the unknown 😊😊 so great. Things such as death can be sudden and unexplained
*ANALYSIS: The thing killing the kids is just a metaphor.* 🧐 Being a senior in highschool feels like a nexus point in life for most people. What if you make the wrong decisions, what’s next? Pressure from others about plans/goals, sex, drugs, grades, family. It’s enough that a kid at this age can feel like their life is over after making one mistake, one failure, one wrong choice, one more criticism about how you’ve disappointed someone once again. Once the boyfriend and lead actress come to terms with the fact that they could die any day now, they freed themselves of those expectations and just lived. The reason it doesn’t affect anyone post graduation is because the ones who managed somehow were now embarking on their next step in life (which isn’t the end of the world).
Everyone that has died are people that had the potential of leaving the town. Even the drug dealers wanted to leave. The moment you find out about it boom ded
Love your content so much! I have a quick medical note, though. While the background for IBS is not clear at that point, it is not really associated with what you eat. It's mainly a psychological issue and overreactive intestine muscles. What you mentioned, about the gases build-up is an effect of SIBO, where your intestine bacteria are a little crazy and overgrown. Another disease where it happens, are some sugar intolerances, main example being lactose intolerance. So, to all of the IBS boys and girls, you probably won't spontaneously combust. Avoid cow milk to be safe though. Lot's of love!
I love this channel and it’s super fun to watch, but it’s so unbearably funny and absurd for me to imagine someone seeing their classmate explode and just go like “oh… yeah they clearly exploded on a celular level, I must start investigating” 😂
It a sexually transmitted disease. It would explain why only the seniors have it. As high school kids are always sexually active. The seniors most likely having sex with people in their grade or age group. Why the CDC don't always wear mask. Why the jock kids got killed first. The pills the government gave them worked.

@@theinsurance2450 if it was an sti then how is it making people explode and also that would mean that most people in the class had sex with more than 1 person in their class. Believable reason though but with how insane it was, theories can literally just be anything
@@thestrangler2688 it a high school and their senior year. They are having lot of sex with each other. Break up rebounds, cheating, one night stands, drinking and drugs. Yeah most of them been having sex. This it's obviously evolved virus. Kind of like how a virus turns people into zombies in some movies.
@@theinsurance2450 bringing sense into this is not possible. I do not believe myself that a virus could evolve enough into anything like this, so not disproving your theory nor agreeing with it
I love this channel because i get to learn a lot of things. My only problem is the ways to beat that he presents requires a person to be omniscient and sometimes omnipresent unlike nerd explains who gives out ways based on what things are available, what state of mind there is and and what is plausible during that situation alone. Can't help to compare but that is what I noticed because I love watching both channels. If I want to learn, How to beat is my go to. But if I actually want to survive, i'd go nerd explains.
Agreed. Cinema summary explanations relies a lot imo in having knowledge people won't readily have and if they don't have it, to Google search it. Who knows if you can during certain situations. Secondly is the presence of mind to be able to respond accordingly. It might be hard to stomach but so many people never practice critical thinking/problem solving. Not to mention the emotion and age of these students. Just saying easier said than actually done.
