Would You Rather (2012) KILL COUNT 

Hiya james

Hey James, can you make a Kill Count review of Netflix's Circle from 2015?

Do armdammd 1988 iced 1988 x ray 1982 and night game 1989

Is squid game getting a kill count

Hii

That's one of the reasons why I could only watch it once - so many things could have been avoided and prevented, and you ended up feeling horrible for every single character in this movie, except for the host of course.

I think the mist takes it me and my mom watched the movie when I was younger and I cried so much. And refused to watch it for a bit

Rabidly clawing tooth and nail for it

I hated the mists ending

Duel of the fates start playing

This wouldn't be the 1st time I've seen the game of "would you rather" turned deadly if you remember an episode of regular show where Mordecai, Rigby, Eileen, and C.J played that game in which "would you rather's" question for Mordecai resulted in him and Rigby getting trapped in a port-o-potty set to be taken to a nuclear testing site where port-o-potties are being blown up by a government laser

I'm gonna say it: I would've done the same. No way I'm going through all this fucking crap just for two of us leaving without any money. If that was the price, I could've stayed at home in the first place and not even be severly injured, so yeah. I'm gonna shoot the other person and go home with the dough, sorry.

@@damianprock1650 Yeah that episode is actually what this movie is based on.

Realegh

I think that's actually why she killed him at that moment though. She had probably already resigned herself to do it and hearing his own tragic story would have just made it even harder on her after she pulled the trigger.

My main grip with modern day horror movies is how the general viewer mostly only knows about ghost or supernatural movies thanks to the Nun and other movies as well. There can be other sub genre horror movies but marketing prefers to advertise those ones instead of the others and it grinds my gears

@@abrahammesrajecorrea2349Agreed. Those movies also push a huge religious backing too. Specifically the Conjuring series. It’s so obvious that they’re trying to turn the masses into Christians, it’s painful. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good scare, but I roll my eyes whenever the Warren’s show up and make the magic boogeyman go away with…… words. Then, the movies that do talk about politics and capitalism being shit, they are always written and directed by lib rich capitalists. Their movies always come off so phony and cringe.

@@antisocialal4799the exorcism stuff is so cheesy in any movie and also annoying. hate when people just yell and the movie frames it like ‘wow!! hes doing it!! its working! so brave!’ its so corny

lol trying to turn the masses to christians. okay pal@@antisocialal4799

Now that's attention to detail. Also completely Horrible.

God damn, I thought Midsommar's beginning was depressing, but this takes it to a whole new level

There's a silver lining here though, she gets to keep all of the money for herself

@@ctakitimu is the money even worth it if you have no one? no brother? no parents? trauma? and the overbearing guilt of ending an innocent man’s life?

@@ctakitimu yeah, but the reason she went through all that is gone. She killed Lucas for nothing. Now she doesn’t even have a way to justify herself.

Had no sympathy for her. The character was already bland and unlikeable even before she killed some guy for money.

I watched this movie super late, and I think I finished at something like four am. I was tired as hell, but I had to immediately watch something else because of how I felt.

@@EnclosedPoolArea Get off your high horse

@@EnclosedPoolArea Having sympathy for someone doesn't mean you're letting them off the hook for any wrongs they've done. It just means you have a basic level of empathy, jack*ss.

@@EnclosedPoolArea listen to darius, your horse isn't made for those altitudes.

sammmeeeeeeeeeeeeeee for most, bu i did watch his one a few years ago. oooffff never again

Agreed 100%! I watched this one and still regret it.

Agreed. I couldn't watch this movie

100% agree lol

Most certainly! I wouldn't be able to stomach a movie like Hereditary either! oof..

Agreed. He was a terrific guy all along

Then they ruined it with the silly level poopie ending where the brother dies.

@TheWaffleStudio Wish it was sad, unfortunately comedy not tragedy. It would have been sad if the brother was alive, then she offed herself out of guilt one day and he was left alone. Unfortunately we got to see a nobody in the film do it.

@@CatGamer-wc2ij well, I can’t say if it was a bad movie due to how much it seems to have stuck in your head and how you really feel the need to explain the ending, bad movies tend to be a ‘watch and forget’ kind of deal, with maybe a few jokes. Also, I feel that the foreshadowing of the ending was pretty obvious, at least from what I’ve seen, and that the tragic ending is the house winning, her brother being dead just proves the suspicions that she was doing it for nothing. TL;DR I feel like the ending was Dramatic Irony

@@Serrifin oh it didn’t stick at all. This kill Count reminded me lol. James’ stuck in my head ♥️. But all lighthearted humor aside, yeah the ending was completely forgettable so by your own statement, it therefore must be crap. As for explaining it, I’m more annoyed at people who like things like Baby Shark 🦈 and this movie. We’ve become so dumbed down we love average, and I was castigating the audience rather than the movie, but politely.

That won't matter if the person panicks and swallows water. Drowning is about swallowing water through the nose too much and filling up your lungs. People can drown with less than a minute if they can't hold their breath long enough underwater.

Yup. Every person should definitely have picked the barrel.

You probably didn’t watch the part where they wouldn’t even let the person take a breath or get ready first. The only reason why Amy died in the first place.

i wanna like this post but the like number is 420 and i cant break that... so me like verbally

Except no where in this film did Barden have any role let alone come close to saving anything.

@@hayden8414 you can like now, the 420 was broken

Even just Barden dying so fast and sudden, knowing he endured all this in the past

@@bunnytailss I don't need to be reminded of reality

Same bro this really bothered me…. 8 months clean in a few weeks.

​@@kermitketamine7198 I just wanted to say congratulations to both of you.

@@Bella-gx4nq thank you that actually means a lot.

@@kermitketamine7198 Wow huge props

@@kermitketamine7198 good job! Keep up the good work friend

Not soul crushing, poop-level silly.

@@CatGamer-wc2ij For some people, it is sad and hard to watch.

@@CatGamer-wc2ij wdym silly LMAO

@@LilliRo15 one the kid had no sentimental value to the audience because he wasn’t a strong character. Two, his death was very expected. Three, it was for shock value. Four, it was silly overkill. They should have had her die from a falling brick too, and some kittens run over. It would have been tragic if she got him better but offed herself out of regret.

doing all those risk only to find the person you did this for dead

@nijuo joing And he also voiced Ratchet in Transformers Prime (aka arguably the last decent Transformers show), as well as the Leader in the under-appreciated Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes! Combs has made quite the name for himself in the world of voice acting, suffice to say!

Damn, she really deserves more credit for that

She’s such an underrated actress

It’s her job? LOL

@@toaleydanza14 True lol😆

No she really had no choice it was saving her brother or dying

@@chrisowens4687at the end it wasnt

@@santiv4 she couldn’t risk trusting him

@@chrisowens4687the man literally sacrificed himself multiple times for her. I wonder what he could possibly do if they both walked out free without ANY money at all🤔

That joke went right through my head at first

Not your best. It was worth a shot.😉

That was a good one for sure a bullseye

Oooh let me get a shot at it.....nah I got nothing.

@@SilkyLew That joke was a miss ngl

'Fun' thing: You can see him slumped over a little when she leaves to go to the place, implying he'd 'self deleted' before she left, and she didn't notice. Possibly could have saved him if she's noticed rather than running off for the money

I know it's kinda sick but the fact that she betrayed the guy right as he begun talking about why he was there and her reason for being there dying because she took the easy way out in the first place felt earned.

@@kharnthebetrayer8251 hunh i never noticed that actually

@@justyourfriendlypebble8943 yeah I gasped when I saw that

I think it’s only tiktok where you can’t say kill or suicide

Yeah, I can't even play Dead Space 2, for one reason, and that's knowing what waits for me at the end of the game.

Penguin is my faveorite character in Gotham

Jeffrey Combs also played The Scarecrow in Batman: The Animated Series.

Robin Lord Taylor is a treasure and the best part of Gotham.

Also mentioned his role in You - “lock him in a glass cage or something”

Capitalism* not life

The fact that it was all for nothing is a stinger. Like, the character would have to live with the memory of what transpired but the fact that she loses even when she wins is such a gut punch. Whew.

@@shatzngiggles8911 pretty sure regardless of socio-political system, life can still suck

@@shatzngiggles8911 Both tbh

@@dr.k8610 East Germany is an example of that. But this type of suckiness wont happen if you don't have captalisim

Honestly, I was kinda the same way. Now I can't get enough horror media... This channel I think was a gateway into horror for many.

I’m the same way haha that and found flix really helped me watching scary movies without watching scary movies

I was afraid of horror movies until I watched him .now I watch everything from Friday the 13th to cannibal holocaust

She played the lead role in "Prom Night" (2008).

He murdered the role. An all-time horror great

@@floop74 he's also a badass Brainiac in the injustice games

And not a HINT of British accent, though I would expect this from some England people

Yaz😩👍🏿😩👍🏿

Ooh, that is a good note, and I can see it now. Like noblesse oblige, but backwards.

Definitely agree

Also the little “ I dunno” 😆

I hope you’re in a better headspace these days. Stay safe and stay healthy out there

Hey dude, not sure how you are doing. Just know you're appreciated, loved, and that you'll be okay. Stay safe man.

Glad you’re still here 🤗

Stay well. People need you more than you know❤

Fellow autist here. I’ve been struggling with dark thoughts for a long time and often contemplated doing it because I believed I was dead weight. You’re not alone. I hope you’ve found happiness.

IKR LIKE WHY DID THEY END IT LIKE THAT

@@blupercs729 I honestly don't know, but that ending was very effective l!

@@JSPokemonYT true but I just hate the fact she did all that just to come back to her dead brother

@@blupercs729 Agreed!

I couldn't. Too depressing

Assuming you're talking about the 2016 movie Hush on Netflix, I believe it has already been covered.

Hush is awesome

being the best cw show is not hard of a challenge

Same!! Dead meat is the reason I opened myself to the horror genre and I'm so happy that I did.

I'm the same way. This channel has really helped me appreciate media more and expand my horizon

Agreed but may I mention the title “elevated horror” is dumb because the idea behind it makes other horror films come off as lesser or dumber than what gets that label-and considering what can be considered elevated horror can be applied to a ton of horror films that don’t get this label which makes the label meaningless. Maybe arthouse or indie horror works a little better? But the term elevated horror has always been dumb to me and it’s an underhanded insult to other films in the same genre.

Ikr I’ve seen and heard of movies I never would have because of dead meat

lol nah I watch this shit so I don't have to watch the actual movie

Ong broooo

I didn't catch that, nice!

100% agreed 👍

I was just thinking this

She’s always been fantastic! I’m glad she’s still working.

She was fantastic in X

While she is most remembered from children and teen comedy flicks like The Pacifier and John Tucker Must Die, everyone should check in her performance in X from Ti West, that movie is fantastic

Naw it’s simple take the money and forget it happened

@@chrisowens4687 I don't think you know how addiction works, friend.

I know exactly how it works I was being sarcastic

Right. I feel like Iris finding her brother dead was HER karma because she basically took away a brother from his three siblings.

i took it as her already having made her decision. she was fighting it, but his words were getting to her, so she had to act before he changed her mind. Pretty selfish, but she knew that.

@@LeonSKennedyyyy But I wonder. Would he have been so glib to leave with the gun in his hand? I think that's the terrible takeaway.

@@LeonSKennedyyyy yep! Exactly! Karma is a b*tch and doesn't forget an address, as my Mom says.

@@meatbleed I think evil is the word, not selfish

i had a large fart when you posted this, call me, now

@@dankyjoker imma need those digits

Yes! The song by the Goo Goo dolls! Honestly such a clever joke

I absolutely love that song, good job James

I don't think I know anyone who isn't aware of that song.

I was so locked into the movie that the ending caught me off guard also.

Same, this movie is like The Mist for me. I can't watch it again. As my mom died of cancer I can relate to Iris, but holy hell the ending hurt.

I love the googoo dolls!

literally , now i quote horror movies like a true movie nerd lol

These AI bots r getting out of hand

@doeybap7719 same here.

Same

same i saw it a couple years ago and thought it was some cheesy netflix horror movie yet it's so near and dear to my heart now but i don't think i could ever watch it again

June Squibb is an excellent actress.😊

There’s no chance lol. I specifically went to the movie theater to see “You’re Next” and I left feeling so unfulfilled.

i love "You're Next" so much! iconic

@@Brooklynsfinest2387 You’re in the minority here. “You’re Next” is universally loved and Erin is regarded as one of the best if not THE best female protagonist in a movie.

@@mochabearry Erin is well regarded because she’s far more capable than your typical horror movie protagonist. Problem is that capable and savvy heroines don’t make for scary movies, and this is for a handful of reasons. One being that we already know they’re going to make it out alive (and if they’re really likeable, it’s practically guaranteed). Another is that they don’t have room to grow as characters. When we meet them, they are already the best version of themselves, so we don’t get to see their characters develop. Combined, these elements completely ruin the emotional stakes in the movie. It’s no longer a horror movie, but an action movie. And its only entertainment comes from the catharsis of seeing bad people get their comeuppance for messing with the wrong person, not because we the audience are experiencing fear or terror. As far as the horror goes, there were really only a couple of genuinely inspired scenes in You’re Next. The dinner table and the neighbors house come to mind there, but the rest of the movie was forgettable. They don’t make enough use of the characters or setpieces. Also the villains (the evil family members in general) were too cartoonish to be intimidating. The assassins removing their masks midway through was another big mistake on the writers’ part, since they were far more threatening before doing so. Overall, it was a pretty good thriller, but a bad horror movie

@@VideoGuy232 Agree, that ''twist'' was also stupid as fuck. Not a fan of ''You're Next''' at all. Besides maybe those arrows

he also references star trek enterprise at 6:40 lmao

Congrats to you both!!

Congratulationsss

Congratulations!!!

Congratulations on your wedding!

Congratulations on the wedding

Great catch! I forgot how iconic Jeffrey Combs’ voice is

He also voiced Scarecrow in the new Batman Adventures.

He was also the voice of Ratchet in Transformers Prime

Kaden Overstreet true! God his voice was so chilling, I loved it

He was ratchet on transformers prime and brainiac in injustice 2

So is doubt kinda like among us?

My favorite take on this genre is Ready or Not. It's a brilliantly done movie.

@@danielf1833 Uh... Well it's much older than Among Us, but yeah you could say that. BUT! There's actually "Judge", another manga done by the same author and it's basically an Among Us debate for 6 tomes. There's even two imposters. (It's also much older than the game though) (It's pretty damn good too. There's also a movie that doesn't follow the manga at all apart from the base premise.)

@@broceollomon Ready or Not is a banger indeed.

Ghost in the Graveyard (2019) is another good one!

I always find it so interesting when an ending leaves you with the immediate need to just go sleep it off

Going to bed? Do you live with them or something?

@@pyromaniac709 you ever had a sleepover before bud?

Sometimes it's a little refreshing to see the bad guy win

@@user-fe8rh9rg7j what did they say?

I disagree. The cards were pretty clear. A 4 on a barrel can only really make sense in one scenario

Same, Robb Wells character in TPB was and is always one of my favorites. Seeing him in this movie and acting something that isn't a trailer park drug dealer it's just mind blowing because he nailed this.

He was also in Hobo with a shotgun

@@braino64 I got my dad to watch it with me after I met the TTPBs at TOFanExpo he was almost in shock at how different it was

Yep EZ 😩👍🏿

Yeah same with Eddie Steeples I just knew him from My name is Earl

*now*

You’re the first

@@k1ngr0g59 oh, cool.

Sasha Grey is a bit more underrated imo, her movie performances always blow me away

@@qwertyasdf4081 that girl can ride a BBC 😆

I know Combs from Transformers Prime as Ratchet.

i don’t really get it. a lot of things could stab someone accidentally, people could but even more likely a story would be something in nature like falling on a rock or a fallen branch (but like a big branch with a smaller jaded part to it) anyways do you mind explaining the joke?

@@nifynitm Look up ‘Iris’ by the Goo Goo Dolls.

@@nifynitm It's a reference to the Goo Goo Dolls song "Iris" from the late 90's. "I don't want the world to see me/'Cause I don't think that they'd understand" is a lyric from the song and her name is Iris.

and all the trailer park boys jokes 😂
