When I was little someone in my family was watching this movie and idk if I would say traumatized but I was always scared of the cover and ringtone. When I went to the doctors the ringtone started playing on radio I was scared as fuck
I saw this movie in theatres when I was a teenager at the end of it the entire audience collectively belly laughed and started sarcastically applauding/standing ovation ….. Genuinely my most memorable/funniest movie going experience of my life
My most memorable cinema experience was Machete 2 :') everyone was laughing and clapping when something over the top happened. The helicopter-long intestines part made the crowd go wild :'D it was so good!
In little Charlie's defense: With the tons of jumpscares in this movie the couple thousand Watts of sound in your average theatre's what makes the effect work most of the time.
I don't think watts equate to loudness but yeah that will definitely make it scarier. If you watch a horror movie super quiet you probably won't get (as) scared.
I watched the original Japanese movie when I was 10, and it stuck with me for life. Now I live in Tokyo, and every time I’m walking home at night or sitting alone in my room, I always get that eerie feeling, where I look at my phone, and just wait for that “incoming call” text as well as the ringtone. It never happened ofc but it stuck with me from childhood.
I had the feel I watched this movie but didn't remembered the scenes in this video, and it was because I watched the Japanese one! I don't remember if the japanese one is good but all yankee "remakes" of japanese horror movies are awful
I remember getting scared just by looking at the cover art of horror movies while walking around blockbuster as a child, and this was one of those movies
OMG SAME, I even had sleep problems just by watching some of those covers on Blockbuster, now that I'm 19 I realized how most of those come from shitty movies
I had this exact same experience. Saw it at blockbuster when I was like 6-7 and I had a recurring nightmare for months that this thing that looked like the cover, would scream at me next to my bed at night then run away. It’s honestly funny asf at this point, I miss trips to blockbuster.
THANK YOU. I WATCHED THIS AT A SLEEP OVER AND HAD NIGHTMARES FOR LITERALLY YEARS. I watch horror regularly now and yes it's not scary or good, but dang that scene of the burnt lady and baby in the vents haunts me.
i never saw this movie but the dvd case for it traumatized me as a kid. they had it up in the supermarket, that lady's face with the mouth for eyes scared the absolute shit out of me
What's funny about this is that this movie did the same thing to me when I was a kid. Literally the only one that traumatized me was this movie. My brother and sister forced me to watch it with them. I'm actually shocked I'm not the only one.
Lol me too, not a fan of horror and the cover for the movie had me scared shitless back then when I was a kid searching through my family's DVD collection.
Same, except I was in a Blockbuster near my old home. Saw a copy of this on one of those DVD stands that you rotate and was horrified soley because of the box cover with that face. Never even saw the movie yet it kinda creeps me out a bit to this day. (The blockbuster I was at is not there anymore incase you happen to wonder)
I used to cry when I saw the cover of this movie and my older siblings used to scare me on purpose and it’s been a core memory all the way up until I realized what the cover picture was and I realized it wasn’t scared. Now I’m deeply obsessed w scary movies
I watched this movie at a soda fueled all nighter birthday party when I was 12 and it was definitely one of the reasons I didn't go to sleep that night

the original japanese one genuinely traumatized me. the horror movie itself, not too much -- but the ringtone did. everytime i heard it my heart drops. one of my friends played a prank on me and changed my ringtone to it amd i just straight up cried
I almost gave my cellphone back to my parents after seeing the original years ago because of the ringtone. The beginning of “Don’t Cry Out” by Shiny Toy Guns sounds similar to it and every time my sister and I drink together, we listen to that song and I always think of it 😂
Its really funny how much i can relate to you as a person from beeing afraid of horror movies and awkward talks with girls up to the mysterious anime character inpersonation. I see a little of myself in you which probably is a big reason for me enjoying your videos so much. Keep up the good work and have a nice day pal.
Shout out to whoever made the cover. As a kid, it was so scary, I never actually watched the movie. Yeah, it terrified me, but it did me a solid by keeping me from watching the movie.
YOOO so I wasn't the only one then, god I remember walking past the cinemas when the movie was airing and not wanting to turn around because I knew this face was plastered all over the place and it scared me so much
looking back, it was the slow, anxiety-inducing croaking sound from The Grudge that scarred me. i remember being on edge and sleep-deprived for weeks because i couldn't get it out of my head.
oh my God charlie you have unlocked a core memory i too as a child never liked or was interested in horror, this was the FRIST horror movie i ever watched with my brother he constantly scared me and for months made scary noises at night to mess with me one scene that i will never forget was the eye ball stab through the door whole near the end
As a kid me n my brother and his friend were watching house of a thousand corpse, they’re 18 at the time and I’m 9 and about 10 min into the movie they leave the room and close the door and it’s dark and I’m on top of my bunk bed, it took so long of pure panic and fear before I finally did a mission impossible and off the bed to the door and flew to my living room and turned on my N64 as fast as possible in hopes to forget the torment I was just put through
I was actually in Japan when the original came out in theaters. That is still one of the best truly scary movies ever. The US remake was absolutely laughable though.
I think a lot of people enjoy Asian horror a lot more because most American fans are gonna miss certain nuance in their acting. For instance, we can tell when an American actor hams it up or is extremely deadpan. Bad acting is a lot less noticeable to a foreign audience. Japan refuses to hold back when it comes to horror however. Junji Ito has proven that.
As soon as I saw the thumbnail I instantly related I didn’t even watch the movie but everytime I would PASS that movie box I would tear up and hold onto my mom
The only thing that traumatized me as a kid from this movie was the ringtone. The worse part was my parents putting that tone on the fridge if it was left open for to long.
my first experience to horror movies was killer klowns from outer space and it traumatized me as a kid, now though it might be one of my favorites for nostalgia
The beta Charlie: - afraid of horror movies - studies for grades The Chad Jesus: - enjoys horror movies - tortures himself in spice challenges - studies for clout
The creepiest part for me (in the Japanese version) that stayed with me for years was that one scene where the woman gets hit by the train and then the zoom in on her dead body, and next to that the thumb of her severed hand typing in the phone number of the next victim instead of just going through the contact list.
I've always been super into horror and pretty unaffected by it, but even when I was really young and would get scared of it, I still really loved it. I remember being obsessed with this movie's trailer for a few weeks and then never watching it. That scene where the demon girl disappears behind the train is engraved in my mind alongside that creepy ringtone.
My traumatizing movie growing up that wasn’t even horror was Disaster Movie, with the demonic chipmunks. I literally had nightmares of them running at high speed and chewing my nuts off. Why were those goddamn abominations even made? To make us suffer?
oh my god……… FINALLY I AM NO LONGER ALONE I should’ve been 6-7 when I watched it, you best believe i was traumatised, every damn time I passed by our garden bushes I thought those motherfuckers would jump out and eat me alive for like months, my parents had to escort me back home from my grandma’s house in our backyard
I was traumatized by this movie's cover too. We had it on DVD and this and a movie about a doll maker cover were the two film covers that traumatized me.
My first horror movie was Jeeper's Creepers, where the monster was toying with a bus full of students and the part where he rips off one of their heads and squeezes his own head inside always stuck with me.
Why? I watched the movie and it was rather boring, a bit unsettling at times, but only a little bit. I know this movie is legendary so can you please explain why the movie is so scary?
My name is Yoshikage Kira. I'm 33 years old. My house is in the northeast section of Morioh, where all the villas are, and I am not married. I work as an employee for the Kame Yu department stores, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. I don't smoke, but I occasionally drink. I'm in bed by 11 PM, and make sure I get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. I was told there were no issues at my last check-up. I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. I take care not to trouble myself with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to fight I wouldn't lose to anyone.
I remember walking through Walmart back then and seeing the case with the movie poster on it with the mouths for eyes in new releases...used to scare the shit out of me too.
@@literallyagalilacegenii7.690 I moved from New York to Miami when I was 7, we don't have these fuckers there. First month living here and one flew at me (obviously wasn't expecting that) and I'm certain I've truly never recovered from that experience. They're ruthless, man
Same here Charlie, I’m a big horror fan now but One Missed Call always really scared me. I remember seeing the box art at RedBox and getting creeped out.
I remember seeing the ad on tv for this movie where literally out of nowhere the cover will pop up with some creepy ass music, this literally gave me some trauma when I was like 6 or smn
I can't believe Charlie just openly said he used to be a child. I know he says it's embarrassing for him but I just cannot support him any longer. While it could be worse in that he never said he was a baby, he still needs to be held accountable for such heinous and reckless behaviour. Expecting a Twitlonger
One missed call scared the shit out of me when I was in 6th grade. I had an LG Chocolate that got passed down from my older brother and one missed call was my ringtone. Yo this day it still is for nostalgic reasons
Just the picture for this movie scared the hell out of me. The movie that Traumatized me as a kid though, was Dead Silence. slept with the lights and tv on for 2 years as a result of that movie lmao
I had a traumatic experience with this movie too. I remember visiting my family in Arizona and this movie was on DVD. My cousins loaded it into an Xbox 360 and I remember watching it using a blanket covering 70% of my vision. I don't really recall much of the movie, but the most scariest part was the tune playing in the main menu. It was around like 2 AM, I couldn't sleep and my cousins were completely knocked out. I had the tune playing for an hour straight before fear turned into frustration. Being the 8 year old I was, I just straight got out the bed and turned the Xbox off. I can easily remember the tune from the movie if I just simply think about it. Since that day, my fear of horror movies have faded away and I quite enjoy horror movies because I was able to get over my fear of horror in like an hour.
“She’ll do the same thing but with compliments. You hear yourself having a good day on the voicemail.” - unironically sounds like a great and wholesome movie, I’d watch that
@@phatdookie4207 hey, don't worry. everything will be okay. I know things have been rough, but we can do it. just take your time, you don't need to burnout
@@gabiferreira6864 Thank you. I really appreciate it. It really has been bad because my wife abandoned me and my son, it has been over a week without a word from her. Im kinda worried. But nothing I can do about it. And ive just been feeling lost because ive been trying to date other people but it just feels like everyone i like doesn't like me or is already in a relationship or i ruin my chances because I I message them too much because i can't sleep and im in a manic phase. On top of that i came out as Non-binary and Pansexual. And im just struggling with everything at the moment but i do start a new job tomorrow at 10. Other than that i feel like shit. But thanks for the words of encouragement.
I wouldnt, it's great for real life if someone's got depression but for a full movie it'd be the absolute most boring piece of cheesy drool Shit ever made since the Emoji Movie.
I had a printed cutout of that face on the poster on the back of my phone with the aid of a transparent plastic phone case for awhile before I swapped it out when it was freaking people out too much.
When I was little, I was SO scared of this movie. I didn't even watch it, I just saw the cover and description and just freaked out. This was right after I watched the ring for God's sake.
Shelly was one of the most horrifying movies I've seen. The pregnancy of some other couple's child killing you is horrifying. Like total bodily autonomy loss.
I loved that movie so much as a kid, I found the whole Japanese version on YT (remember when we could do that?) and holy moly, I still think about it regularly. I love that movie still, I really don’t see it being so bad. 🥰
The cover is what scared me. I remember when my parents and I would go to a local DVD store/Blockbuster I was horrified when I saw the cover and would close my eyes whenever I was in the Movie isle.
As a kid I was obsessed with horror movies. I loved them. My uncle would do this thing where he'd pretend to be a monster and chase me around the house and stuff, a few years ago I found out he thought I was genuinely scared and I was like "No dude I was having the time of my life" He was the one who introduced me to killer klowns from outerspace. I wasn't allowed to watch horror movies, so I would peak through the crack of my door at night and watch my parents watch horror movies in the living room.
One Missed Call scared me when I saw it in 5th grade in theaters- am a horror movie fanatic who isn’t scared of any scary movie except the Grudge and any underwater movie but for some reason One Missed Call freaked me and I still hear that ringtone lmao
I used to have gruesome, repetitive nightmares of me being harassed and then abducted by aliens while at my own home, I was TERRIFIED of aliens but obsessed with them at the same time, I couldn't stop watching movies and footage. X-files theme still triggers some of that PTSD; it is genuinely one of the scariest pieces of media ever made, it sounds otherworldly, menacing and mysterious; hand-crafted terror that goes directly into your spine. I was amazed when I first heard it full-length because I just couldn't believe that eldritch chant of cosmic-dread was an actual song by a human musician. Scarier than most 2-hour movies
