didn't watch. Hi everyone! Welcome to Too Scary, Didn't Watch, the horror movie recap podcast for those too scared to watch for themselves. I'm Emily, and I am too scared to watch scary movies. I'm Henley, and I'm also too scared to watch scary movies. I'm Sammy, and I like watching scary movies and telling these two women all about them. Oh my god, I'm so freaking excited. You guys, I

almost forgot what to say in the beginning. I had a momentary lapse. It's just your name. It's just exactly what you say, Emily, and then I say it right after you. And it makes me so happy to be back on the pod. It's been just too long, you guys.

To be saying those magical words again. They fill me with life. They fill me with joy. My cup has been refilled. Oh, thank God. Wait, how many did I miss? Do you guys even know?

I don't even know how many I missed. Three? Two? Not that many, to be honest. Okay, okay. Not that many, but a couple, yeah. A bonus episode and two regulars, maybe? Yeah, I think only two regulars.

Oh, wow. Well, I'm really happy to be back. I missed you guys so much. And I have a baby now the baby is here he has arrived he's arrived his name is silas he's really tiny he's like so small he's very floppy it took a while to get used to holding him without feeling like i was just gonna kill him the second i touched him that's the only time i've held babies. It's like, well, I'm about to kill this baby because I don't have that long amount of practice. So I can relate to that first feeling.

I'm like, well, he's going to die in my hands. He's going to die in my hands. Babies' heads are also not like hard. So because they need to be soft, they can come out of your body easier. And so their heads are squishy. So that doesn't help because you're like, I'm just definitely going to murder this baby by accident. You have to hold their head, but then it's a soft little head. So it's like, hold it, but not too much. They're actually

very strong. It's all in your head. They're very resilient. I like when they're in the, I call it the little tree frog stage when they're just the i call it the little like like tree frog stage when they're just like they just like grip onto you like a little tree frog and just flop in because there's nothing else they can do and i'm saying this as the person who has not ever had i like holding other people's because i think as a parent it's the worst stage ever because you don't sleep and it's impossible but for me love it

I really wish we were in the same city you guys so you could come over and hold him that would make me so happy I wish that so bad so badly I know soon because I'm also getting married in September

and you guys shall meet him then and I can't wait he's so cute and tiny and perfect Silas I'm getting married in September and you guys shall meet him then. And I can't wait. I can't fucking wait. Cute and tiny and perfect. Silas. Wow. Silas. I love him so goddamn much.

Silas. God. God. God. God. God. God. God.

God. God. God. But catch me up on what I missed. Tell me how you guys are. Well, it's up with us. Far less eventful past couple of weeks. What I was going to talk about today is that I've gotten very...

You guys know I love a project. And I will, like, you know, my thing was doing clay for a while. It still sort of is. But then I was like, no, I sew now. And I'm going to just make clothes and sew. And now my thing is sewing. And it's still both of those things. But my next thing, which is sort of related, I have in the past few days gotten so into dyeing clothes and fabric.

When Rit dye is what I've been using. It's fucking cheap. It's so easy. There are a million colors. The world becomes your oyster. I am obsessed. I can't stop. It happened because a client at our salon came in

and she was like, I just dyed a dress of mine. I did a dip dye. And she showed me a picture and I was like, oh, what a cool idea. I have this dress that's like a white it's off-white silky and it just looks so like bridal like it just looks too and I never know what to wear it with but it's like if the fit is nice so it's like oh I'll dye that dress and then I was like I'll dye everything and I have every white thing that I own I'm like just kidding it's not white anymore it's a color and I'm gonna do this then I own. I'm like, just kidding. It's not white anymore. It's a color.

And I'm going to do this. Then I dyed napkins. I bought a tablecloth and dyed it. Did you dye the shirt you're wearing right now? Yes, finally. You better fucking believe it. You better fucking believe it. Because this one came out too pink.

This is one of my first ones. Because different fabrics take the dye in different ways. So my first round was I had things, a few things that were white but like stained or just dingy. And you can like, you know, I don't wear this anymore. So let's just see what the deal is. It's just the world's your oyster

to an extreme degree. It's not good because I won't stop. And now it's like I'm running out of things to them like I guess I could dye this I guess I don't love the color that this is so I'm just like going crazy I feel like I might you had such success with

the with the earrings and I feel like why not make this a full shop one stop shop for your clothing for your earrings for your tablecloths and your napkins i really might i really might i keep saying i'm going to put together a little like summer market situation and try to sell some stuff because i've also been making a lot of clothes but i just keep making

like i'm making stuff for for me and for joel and for friends and it's so cheap it's so easy to give you tips for how to get your dye consistently. You could do a tie dye. If you want like this that I'm wearing right now, it's like a little more tidy. But this, I want to just be consistent. It's easy to do. It doesn't take that long. You don't need that many materials. And you can make something new again.

Do you know what I mean? And it's more economical. Instead of getting rid of something, you turn it into something new. Sustainable. Better for the environment. It's freaking great. It's so great. And I'm really obsessed with it now. And so

get ready for that to be my new thing. I love it. Hell yeah. This is very exciting. We're going to have to post some pics. Yeah. When I get some success stories going, I'll share them. It's exciting stuff. That is exciting stuff.

Sammy, can you fucking top that? Absolutely not. Can you top it? I sure can't. I'm in a stage of life right now where I've finished this job. And I was telling you guys earlier that it's just now like I have no idea what I do every day. So this question of how have I been is like, I'm good. I think like, what have I been doing? Um, mostly been catching up on a lot of chores that had, had built up, um, catching up on a lot of TV. Um, and I've been doing, taking care of my, um, physical and mental health more than I was when I was working nonstop. I started going to acupuncture, which acupuncture is I really like it. I've done it before. And I find it very

relaxing. But there's always like five moments during it where I panic and assume that I'm going to fall off the table like in Final Destination and all the needles are going to stab me. So that like kill you if that happens. No, I don't think that it would. Yeah, there's the table like in final destination and all the needles are going to stab into me oh my god so would that like kill you if that happened no i don't think they're so skinny yeah they're so tiny i think about but that's what i think about when i'm laying on the table trying to relax it's like which ones will be worst because and what what should my what should my because i get a lot in my hands and feet which stresses me out because i can't. If I'm falling, I need to remember not to put my hands out to stop myself because that'll actually be worse. So I would just need to kind of flop onto my belly where there's no needles or back.

At least you have a plan. I do. I make a plan. And then I kind of relax for a bit and I get into it. I'm like listening to the little white noise machine. Like, there was a part where I felt like I was in the womb. It was really nice. And but then I'll be like, fuck, fuck, fuck, there's

needles all over me. And panic again. I've never done it and I feel like I would be nervous. I've never done it either. Because I imagine like you would have a little bit of a feeling of like claustrophobia sometimes. because you really are kind of trapped. Yes, you can't move because the needles are in specific points that it doesn't feel good when you move. You can feel needles in your skin.

Sometimes they're like near nerves. And so it feels like very bad to move. That's awful. to move but it's like a good practice for me and being still because I'm have so much nervous energy that it's like a way for me to force myself to kind of meditate in stillness and so it ends up being like very very deeply relaxing with little sprinkled moments of panic um so that's kind of what I've been up to and one other thing that i wanted to say is that i finished loki which is so good and one thing i learned about it that's so fucking cool um is that all six episodes uh the director is a woman kate heron all six episodes the

cinematographer is a woman autumn derald and the composer is a woman and Kate Herron. All six episodes, the cinematographer's a woman, Autumn Durald. And the composer is a woman. And those are like three of the big jobs. And on a fucking Marvel thing, all of those jobs being women on all six episodes really just made me feel really excited and pumped. That's super cool.

And the score is so fucking good. The score is really, really good. I agree agree I just haven't seen the last episode I have one more to go I'm excited this has been my favorite Marvel TV show so far that they've released so much better than

Captain Winter Falcon Soldier Captain Winter Falcon that was a mess Captain Winter Falcon I. That was a mess. That's so Captain Winterfell. I didn't like that one. First of all, too many words in the title. It's chaotic.

Pick a word. None of them are real words. Chaotic. Captain Winterfell. That's not even a title. I'm not a big fan of Captain America in general, so I wasn't really expecting to like that one. And I didn't. So I wasn't too surprised.

I liked it actually a little bit more than I thought I would based on how much I how little I care about those characters in general. But it's definitely the worst of the three. And I agree. I think it goes Loki, WandaVision and then Captain Winter Falcon Soldier. That's the official title. I'm pretty sure title i'm pretty sure i'm pretty sure yeah um and then another thing i did this week was i well i movie hopped which can you even believe haven't done that since probably 2014 no earlier once assigned seating became regular, I got a little too scared of... I don't like to get in trouble. I don't like to break

the rules, but... I did. I did it. And the first movie I saw was this week's movie, which is old. The greatest movie title that there ever was. So fucking excited. Oh, my God.

M. Night Shyamalan, they just give him so many tries. They're just like, I was thinking about this. Like, I have no idea how you feel about this movie, Sammy. Maybe he knocked it out of the park again, finally. But it's like M. Night Shyamalan, they've been like, you know what? Let's just give him another shot. Let's just let him try one more time. I mean, I think some of his movies make a lot of money.

I think Split made a lot of money. I mean, he has a name that people know, you know? So they're not doing it to give him any favors. They're trying to make money. They're not being nice. It just feels like he's had one too many shots, though. I don't know. I don't know.

So, okay, I'm excited to hear what you think. His filmography is very interesting because it's so all over the place. There's some truly fantastic films and some of the absolute worst films that have ever been made. Like The Happening is just undoubtedly one of the worst movies ever made. This one, I'd say somewhere in the middle. It's OK. So, yeah, written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan, based on a graphic novel by Pierre Oscar Levy

and Frederick Peters, starring an ensemble cast. We got Gail Garcia Bernal, Vicky Kreps, Rufus Sewell, Alex Wolfe, Thomasin McKenzie, Abby Lee, Nikki Amuka Bird, Ken Leung, Eliza Scanlon, and Aaron Pierre. Ken Leung is that guy from Saw who I love. Oh, yeah! Quite a cast.

Yeah, it's a great cast, which is part of why I was very excited to see it, and I think I talked about it on the pod when I saw the trailer for this, because this played before A Quiet Place 2, I think, is when I first saw this trailer for this because this played before a quiet place too i think is when i first

saw right this trailer and i was so pumped about it because the concept he just this concept is so ridiculous and silly but i'm into it it is hour. And this week we are keeping it simple and elegant, just like the title of this week's film. We are drinking an old fashioned. And this is the Difford's Guide recipe for an old fashioned. And to make this version, you will need one and a half ounces of bourbon, one ounce of rye whiskey, a third an ounce of demerara sugar syrup, and nine drops of Bob's Abbots bitters. You will stir all ingredients with ice and strain into an ice-filled old-fashioned glass and garnish with an orange zest twist. Cheers. Did they film it during COVID? Yes.

Oh, they did! Because it's like they're on like a desert island or something, right? It's like the perfect COVID setup. Yeah. Yeah. Here's some stats for us. It has a 52 on Rotten Tomatoes, a 53 on Metacritic. Very rare that Metacritic is higher than

Rotten Tomatoes. A 6.1 on IMDb there we go classic classic rating for IMDb the budget was 18 million so far it has made 23 million it has been out for at the time of this recording

just three days so pretty good but I mean movies tend to make most of their money in the first three days so could be better. But also not bad. It's already made money, so that's a good sign. It is PG-13, which I think it would have been better if it were rated R. Yeah. And yeah, it's out now in theaters. If you want to see it, that's how you got to do it. And I went to AMC.

I went to one in Burbank. It has full recliner chairs. There's like a button on the side, a button on the side that goes full. Like you can lay almost completely horizontally to watch the movie. And I've never been in one like that before. And I, oh my God, I loved it. I fucking loved it. I just did that for the first time at the CityWalk but

not the because the one we went to at CityWalk was the IMAX in their regular theaters yeah you can so this must be an AMC new thing all the way back yeah there are a bunch of those in New York and when on Tim and I when we went one of our first dates we went to go see Inside Out and they had

those reclining chairs and Tim was leaning on me. And when he leaned up, it was a huge wet spot because he just cried so hard. And it got all over my shirt. And it was our like third date. And yeah, so it was filmed in quarantine. I think it was filmed in September of 2020. So pretty peak quarantine. I think it was filmed in September of 2020. So pretty peak quarantine,

pretty peak COVID time. And M. Night Shyamalan said that the subject matter of the film in which a group of people find themselves trapped on an isolated beach dealing with a deadly phenomenon mirrored the experience of being in lockdown and the uncertainty of the coronavirus pandemic,

adding, it was strange. We were making a film that had nothing to do with the pandemic, but at the same time it was absolutely about this fear and uncertainty we were all feeling. The fear of infection, it made us think very deeply about death and survival and about being in lockdown. The idea

of being stuck in a situation and not being able to leave, which I thought was interesting that they just kind of by chance this movie that really is not at all inspired by anything pandemic related kind of still mirroring some of those same feelings which is kind of interesting to me yeah that's definitely interesting because he obviously wrote it before coronavirus. Right. And it's based on a graphic novel. Right. Oh, I'm really excited. I'm excited to tell you about it.

Should we watch this trailer? Yes. Let's do it. No kids allowed on the beach? What? That's not true! Oh, no! Oh, no!

We never leave each other. Nothing us are we there yet you said five minutes technically it's been more than five minutes let's just all start slowing down wow you believe i found this online i guess it's not that secret a bit Wow. Do you believe I found this online? I guess it's not that secret a piece. Whoa. Who would leave this? From the hotel.

They're so rusted. What's happening? Found stuff from the hotel in the sand. Ready or not, here we come! What happened to her mom? I don't know. What happened to her? Her body has decomposed. How quickly can that happen? I don't know. What happened to her? The body has decomposed.

How quickly can that happen? Seven years. But she just died. Wait, where are the kids? Trent! Kara! Come here! Hey, have you seen my children?

Mom? I'm right here. Dad, why are you looking at me like that what's happening to us my daughter just turned six two weeks ago whatever's happening to us is happening very fast. You have wrinkles. There's something wrong with this beach. What's happening? Mom! Mom! Mom! I'm scared!

We have to get off this beach. People are blacking out going this way. If she makes it to the ledge, she might have a chance. Why is she stopping? Why is she stopping? Can I wake up? Wake up! They have to know what this place does. I don't know! You're lying! Look. What is that? A message. We never leave each other. Nothing separates us. We're connected to something bigger. Oh no. We're here for a reason.

Wow. Outrageous. Outrageous. Yeah, I mean, I had to see it. I just had to. I have to know what happens. I to know i cannot wait to hear what the fuck is up with this movie and also if it was like really distracting watching those actors play six-year-olds you know what i mean like if you're thinking about that the whole time like oh he's technically

six yeah i'll tell you i'll tell you i had some thoughts about that um yeah yeah yeah oh my god like how does she get pregnant like what i can't wait to find that out she's uh falling asleep as she climbs up a rock like what's that the idea that the scary I guess already their kids have aged like crazy but then being like you have wrinkles I know that part's so funny

also he didn't have wrinkles up until now excuse me yeah like are just the kids aging or the adults are aging but slower it seems the kids really seem to be aging I'm going to answer all these questions I have so many questions

it's also very funny that it's M. Night Shyamalan director of Sixth Sense and Split and a lot of other crap shoots in between forget about the ones in the middle also Split I know is supposed to be good but it's not nearly

as good as Sixth Sense I'm sure and so it's funny that those are still the two you need something else to say I mean Signs is better than Split for sure but Split was a great vehicle for James McAvoy to do a bunch of different characters

also it would be very funny if in 2021 they're targeting you as from signs and the six it's like, well, that's true. 20 years ago. It's got to do one. People watching this movie weren't alive when those movies came

out. Yeah. All right. Guys, sorry. Speaking about aging aging it's fine but i uh went to a dodgers game this week and they carded us to to get our beers and the guy reading our ids was like i just look for if it starts with a one with a one nine i don't even worry about it it's like i don't even look at the rest because oh my god you in the year 2000 and be 21 years old. And I was like, holy fucking shit. Yeah.

That's crazy. Great. I know. We had that realization actually very recently. And it blew my mind too. It's very upsetting. Yeah, that's wild. It's deeply upsetting.

Also, 1990 was 30 years ago.'s not okay it's wild it's just it's wild i mean that's like the thing that i like about this movie it is it's like time passing and aging is fucking scary and it's something that everybody thinks about and so it's like the movie does going into it i was like it doesn't have to be great like i wasn't expecting it to be great i was like it can either be really good and i'll be happy it can be bad and i'll be happy like it's just such a fun and good premise that i'm like i just am curious to see it like no matter what even if it's bad it's still gonna make me think about these things that are scary it's like just like the thought of death approaching faster and faster is scary yeah so especially when you think about like a six-year-old experience yeah like a kid losing their childhood in a second yes it's very scary yeah yeah all

right should we fucking do it let's get into it get into it. I used to love back to school shopping so much that I would tell my mom that I wanted to work at Staples when I grew up, because I just loved getting all the things that I needed that I would use every day in class. I still to this day have nightmares about showing up in class without notebooks or number two pencils. Really scary stuff. But luckily I wake up and I realize I don't actually need notebooks or number two pencils anymore. But this fall there is something that I will be using every day and would be terrified to be caught without. And that's Raycon's best-selling everyday earbuds. I've been trying to go on walks every day, and so I need

earbuds that I can rely on to listen to all my favorite podcasts. And I know you guys listen to podcasts as well, so you know what I'm talking about. I got my Raycons in carbon black because that's my vibe, but they come in other cool colors as well, like forest green and brush violet, but my favorite thing about them is the battery life. They stay charged for 32 hours, and they have a new quick charge function, So 10 minutes of charging gets you 90 minutes of battery life. Really freaking convenient for, I don't know, say a long morning walk. You forgot to charge them and you just need a little bit of juice to listen to one episode of a podcast. It's only going to take you 10 minutes. It's incredible.

First of all, I want to just apologize that this will be a slightly more unreliable slash less detailed one than normal just because i saw it in theaters so it's harder to take note i actually think i did a pretty good job but some of this might be like slightly out of order that's fine of course it's way harder to do it when you see it once in theaters yeah that's totally fine also i again i just want to know the big i'm just like tell me what the fuck is up like i just want to same same same same yeah yeah well i got you i got i got that much okay so we start with a family in a van on their way to a resort they're on some sort of tropical um island and we have a mom and dad and two kids

the mom and dad are gail garcia bernal and vicky kreps their names are guy and prisca and their two children are trent and maddox um trent's a boy maddox is a girl and uh trent is younger they look to be about and 11. They actually say that they're 6 and 11 later, so that's how I know, because notoriously otherwise, who knows what I would have guessed, but... 8. You would have guessed 8. Yeah, round them both to 8.

They're both pretty close to 8, honestly. They also don't look that different in age to me. Yeah, I would not have guessed 11, so... Me either. Not at all. Thank you. You're welcome. So Maddox is

singing and Prisca says she's kind of nodding her head along. She's enjoying her daughter singing and she says, I can't wait to hear your singing voice when you're older. Really made me laugh um and they arrive at the resort it's very fancy they are greeted by um the hotel resort manager and this woman that has these very strange looking cocktails it's

like by the profile you filled out we've chosen these specific cocktails for you. And they look very intricate and they're just being being treated very nicely and welcomed on in. And the kids go to kind of a lunch buffet. They all go to a lunch buffet, but the kids are alone at this table serving themselves and they meet the resort manager's nephew. His name is Idlib. And Trent and Idlib

are so fucking cute. It's so cute. This movie does a very good job of making you realize how precious childhood is and these moments of just this movie does a very good job of making you realize how precious childhood is. And these moments of just these just precocious little children, like kids just say kind of weird things. What is it?

What does it say? He's like, I collect conch shells. I have 42 and Trent's like, that's so cool. I do this. And this is what, like,

this is my thing. And they're like, whoa, cool thing. And so cool. I do this. And this is what, like, this is my thing. And they're like, whoa, cool thing. And like. That's so cute. It's so sincere. Yeah.

It's so like unguarded. Yeah, exactly. They're just like, hello. Imagine going up to someone and being like, I mean, I guess I kind of do. Hi, I dye clothes now. I have eight different pairs of clothes that I dyed. Yeah, exactly. It's really sweet.

I'll give you the link. It's really sweet. I'll give you the link. It's very sweet. And so Trent and Idlib become fast friends. And after lunch, the family and Idlib go out to the beach. There's kind of a pool near the beach and all the rest of the guests are there. And Trent and Idlib are going up to each person saying, Hi, I'm Trent. I'm Idlib.

What's your name and what's your occupation? Oh, that's so cute. Person to person. What's your occupation? I liked also the detail that he varies it from person to person. Hi, what do you do for a living? What's your name and what do you do for a living? Some people he says, what's your name and what do you do for a living some people he says what's your occupation it's very cute and like he meets this um these three people and they're like they are just so think it's so freaking cute and they're

like oh i'm a nurse i'm a cop i'm a dancer and they're just like very charming charming everybody on the beach these two adorable little children and knowing what we know what's coming it's just like they're really leaning into like how precious childhood is and how much you just want them to like stay that age forever so they're they're already on the beach that we saw on the trailer no this is a different beach this is like the main beach lots of lots of uh tourists here it's a pretty crowded beach got it got it um and maddox is like in a pre-teen phase you can see her looking at the older cooler kids feeling like she wants to go over and hang out with them but um is still kind of a kid and kind of hangs with her little brother, Nidlib. And she's just a little too old for them, but a little too young for the cool kids.

And so she's in kind of that in-between phase. And we just see that they're a very happy, sweet family. And they go back to the room at night to get to bed and prisca and guy are in their room together and they get in a little bit of a fight and through this fight we find out that they are actually planning to separate after this that this is their kind of last family trip um and they start yelling at each other and it seems that Guy wants to stay together. Prisca is done. And we also hear that she has some health problem.

That's kind of maybe made her want to make this change. Like she's feeling like she doesn't have as much time left perhaps or something.'s it's kind of vague it doesn't give you a lot of answers yet but we see that she has a health condition they're separating and they're kind of yelling at each other uh she says something like you're always worried about the future like why because he's like well we could do this we could do this she's like you're always thinking about the future and he's like well you're always stuck in the past and like why can't we ever just be in the present together a lot of references to time and

we see outside of the room that Trent and Maddox are just literally right outside the door listening to this whole fight kind of holding each other like they've probably heard similar fights before Maddox is comforting Trent like it's okay it's gonna be okay like we have each other we're still stick together

and Trent remembers that he has a little note from Idlib that he pulls out and they've made some sort of secret code language where each symbol is a different letter in the alphabet and so he decodes

this message and says uh ice cream tomorrow like and he's he's all excited to see his friend live in the morning and um so the next morning they oh no that night we see on the beach that we saw in the trailer a man and a woman uh kind of there alone and the woman gets naked and is looking uh alluringly as she like gets into the water this is kind of just like a maybe a couple romantically having a nighttime a nighttime beach time an old nighttime beach time nighttime beach time love a nighttime beach time. An old nighttime beach time. Nighttime beach time. Love a nighttime beach time. My favorite pastime is a nighttime beach time.

The idea of swimming in the ocean after dark, it killed me. Like, I can't. Are you kidding? Sharks. It sounds very, very scary. I've done it. So scary. But it's scary.

But we don't really see what happens. We just see that they're there. And then we cut to the next morning breakfast back at the resort. We see some of the other people that are staying there. There's a man and a woman, Charles and Crystal. And Charles is clearly much older than Crystal. This is his wife and they have a daughter together. He looks

to be 50 and she's in her 20s type of thing and his mother is also with them and that's Rufus Sewell. Yep. And Abby Lee is the

wife and they're ordering breakfast and she's kind of flirting with the waiter. She's they give her this very Instagram model vibe of very vain. And she's asking she's ordering like a juice and she's like is it really calcium enriched because i have a calcium deficiency and he's like yes calcium enriched yeah and um i don't know she's like flirting with him and at some point like says something to her daughter like sit up straight honey like men don't like it when women slouch like it's just kind of this very very um uh looks yeah it's shallow shallow exactly and uh we see at another table a woman starts having a seizure and her husband kind of runs to her side and just lays her on her back and uh and charles at who we just saw at the other table runs

up he's like i'm a doctor and they just they get her through her seizure it ends and she's like obviously this has happened before um and her husband makes kind of a little joke like, oh yeah, you just love being the center of attention. She laughs and they get back to, she's like, I'm sorry I ruined everybody's breakfast. They seem like a nice couple. This is, um, Ken Lung and Nikki Amuka Bird. And so we've just kind of now seen a few of the other guests and the resort manager comes up table to table saying you know how's your stay so far what are your plans for the day and uh guy and prisca say you know we don't know what we're really doing today we're kind of looking to maybe

go to the beach but we were not sure and he says well i've got something for you there's a there's another beach that's much more private that we don't really tell everybody about so you and the you your family could go there um we could have a driver take you there it's like a much more private um beach and you're like oh that sounds great and we see idlib across the way trying to go to trent walk up to trent they're waving at each other like they're friends they're so excited to see each other and someone kind of moves idlib away and like won't let him walk over there and he looks it looks very stressed and uh is uh then just walked off and we don't see where he goes right now idlib is in the know idlib knows the speech can't wait to find out why they want to sacrifice people to this god of aging

yeah clearly they're it's, I don't know, it's how they make money. Clearly it's how they make money. It's the only reason I can imagine. It's the only reason anyone does anything, to be completely honest. It's true. So they're loaded

into a van driven by M. Night Shyamalan himself. He always makes a little cameo. He loves it. So cute by M. Night Shyamalan himself. He always makes a little cameo. So cute of M. Night Shyamalan. It's so cute. Fancies himself a little. Alfred Hitchcock. And Crystal and Charles and their daughter and grandma and dog are also loaded into this van.

So they're all going to this beach and they drive away the dog too you said there's a dog yeah that's emily emily just got very scared the movie just went next level because there's a dog present dogs age differently than humans i can't find out to find out. Yeah, it's the other family's dog, and so they get to, they drive a while, and they get to this kind of path in

the forest. Forest? Woods? What do you call when it's tropical? Forest, I guess. Yeah. Rain. Rain. Forest. Rain. Tropical. Forest. guess yeah uh rain rain forest tropical forest tree tree grove a grove of trees grove of jungle jungle yeah it's kind of it's kind of a path in the jungle and there's some little Are we geniuses? Very smart.

Very, very, very smart. Okay. There's like a fence that blocks off this path and M. Night Shyamalan starts unloading these picnic baskets that they have provided for the families. Like, here's your stuff to have a nice beach day.

And there's tons of food in it. And they're like, oh my God, this is so much stuff. And he's like, yeah, like we like to just don't want anybody going hungry. And so it gives them kind of a lot of stuff. And Charles asks him, can you help us with this? Like, this is so much stuff. And he's like, unfortunately, I got to get back.

But it's just right there. It's not far at all. You'll just walk through the slot canyon and it's right on the other side m.i. shemalon gets in the van leaves they carry all their uh stuff through this slot canyon and emerge the other side onto a beautiful beach um that's all empty except for the man that we saw there the night before. Not the woman. And he is just sitting by himself, kind of staring off into space. And so they set up on their beach to set up their umbrellas and their towels and whatnot. umbrellas and their towels and whatnot and uh maddox says to her mom says to prisca noticing the man she's like mom mom mom that's mid-sized sedan which is the funniest character name

and i guess he is some sort of rapper that uh she. I thought she saw him driving in a mid-sized sedan. That's kind of what I thought at first as well, but they ask him later what his name is and he's like, I'm mid-sized sedan. That's really funny. That's actually great. I love it. It's very funny. And

you can see that Maddox is a fan and she's kind of stressed about it. And she's like, I got to go talk to him. I got to go talk to him. She's like, yeah, like we'll talk to him in a bit.

Like let's get up, set up first. And, uh, the kids kind of all go off together. There's Maddox and Trent, but also Kara, the other daughter who seems to be about Trent's age,

also about six. And they're playing tag, running around and they stumble upon a bunch of buried things near the like on a corner of this beach rusted uh silverware from previous picnic baskets some kind of dolls sunglasses they're just discovering a bunch of buried stuff in the sand and they think it's cool like buried treasure like oh look at all this stuff and prisca and guy just kind of don't really take much notice of it they're like okay well be careful like don't you know cut yourself on any of the knives or whatever and then the kids start

playing hide and seek and trent swims and hides in the water kind of behind in like a little enclave it's like the whole the whole beach is a big cove and there's high high rock walls everywhere that kind of um go in and out so you can he's hiding behind one of the rock walls in the water and uh as he is like treading water we see a blonde head of hair floating behind him and bump into him he starts screaming the parents run over and pull out a corpse of the woman we saw from the night before um and uh mid-size sedan obviously recognizes her as the woman he was with the night before he's being weird like especially knowing what we know as an audience it's like why isn't this guy like immediately saying everything to this family yeah and yeah freaking out that this woman disappeared last

night and now the next day he's just kind of sitting there still here yeah hanging out so we're he's a little weird but um he seems to be in shock maybe um and her corpse just looks like how she looked like she hasn't like aged or anything like that. She just looks the same. Right. Okay. And so they pull her out of the water and Charles is quickly, he's the older doctor guy, is like super suspicious of midsize sedan. He's like, who are you? What the fuck's going on? Yeah, of course. Of course.

He's like, who are you? What the fuck's going on? Of course. Of course. And Guy and Prisca are very much trying to lower tensions and be like, OK, we don't know. Like, relax. Like, let's figure this out. Like, we don't need to start screaming at each other. We need to just like stay calm.

And midsize sedan's nose is is bleeding like pouring blood pretty consistently and they're like charles says clearly they like gonna fight he hit her she must have hit him back that's why his nose is bleeding and mid-sized sedan says my nose has been bleeding for eight hours like it won't stop bleeding like i don't know what's going on and uh at that they they cover the body with a towel so the kids can't see and at that moment jaron uh oh the couple that the woman had a seizure that couple arrives their names are jaron and patricia and uh the family runs up to them says oh good good good is the van driver still here like we need to go back to the hotel some there's something bad has happened and show them the body quickly they're all like oh fuck okay like i think he left already but let's try to go back and uh jaron

starts walking back through the slot canyon it's like i'll run back see if i can get him he gets about 20 feet into the slot canyon and then something happens where he's it seems like he's getting a pounding headache kind of like a loud noise is happening he grabs his head and kind of falls to his knees in pain and then blacks out and then comes back to right at the entrance back on the beach. And everyone's standing over him saying, what happened? What happened?

You stumbled out like screaming in pain. Um, and he's like, I don't know. It felt like I was, uh, like very deep underwater. Like there was pressure on my head.

Um, I blacked out. And, um, at that moment, at that moment, crystal yells from the other side of the beach charles something's wrong with your mom and they run over to charles's mom and she is i can't really remember what she says she kind of says something to him like it's going to be okay and she dies. She just dies. And then they

say something's happening to the dog. Dog dies. So the mom and the dog died immediately. Um and he's been through seven times the amount of time that they've been through. Yeah, that's a good point. It's a great point.

And so Charles Crystal seven times the amount of time that they've been through yeah that's a good point it's a great point and so charles crystal and guy and prisca are kind of standing over the bodies trying to figure out what to do there that jaron and patricia are left to kind of watch the kids and keep them away from the mounting amount of dead bodies on the beach and darren or jaron and patricia say oh how old are you guys actually let me guess like i'm so good at guessing kids ages just funny just there's all these moments that are just like you roll your eyes like okay such a device but um he's like you're six and you're 11 or no no sorry he says you're 11 and you're 16 and they're like no we're 6 and 11 and he's like no like no you're you're not like you're 11 and 16 right like how how old are you really and the camera reveals that they are not yes they are now um about 11 and 16 they have they have aged and but they're not the actors yet of the oldest version okay no and um so and i will say the casting is pretty good because they have to cast quite a few different ages for these kids um and

at this moment charles starts acting very unhinged all of a sudden and we're not quite sure why after seeing his mom die he kind of walks over to mid-size sedan with a knife and slices midsize sedan's face. And everyone kind of turns around like, well, what the fuck? What are you doing? And Charles looks kind of out of it and as if he doesn't know what he just did. And midsize sedan is holding his hand over his face like, man, that's fucking assault. Like, I'm going to you're going to go to jail for this. Jail is going to be the least of anybody's problems

yeah seriously oh jail you wish there's no jail in hell jail sounds great I wish I could go to jail yeah and so he's holding his face and Guy says let me see let me see

and he takes his hand off and it's a healed scar which is kind of cool um and so they're all time has sped up they're stressed and then at this moment guy and prisca are like where are the kids where are the kids and see that their kids are have grown are not the same kids they were 20 minutes ago and uh maddox is like spilling out of her bathing suit which is like a sad little detail and her mom's like i have a spare bathing suit in my bag like you need to go change because she has boobs now and so they they're like okay something is very wrong on this beach we need to get the fuck off this beach

Charles and Guy again start walking down the slot canyon same thing happens their head starts pounding and they wake back up on the beach and Jaron says okay three people now have blacked out as they try to leave um something's going on and patricia says i'm a psychologist maybe we're having some sort of shared delusion that's a thing that can happen when everyone's under stress like everyone tell me your medical like your medical history and why you're here and crystal says that charles has been under a lot of stress as a doctor his job's very stressful and so they just needed some time and we can see charles get very annoyed that she's saying this and he's like like none of that's our business and she's like i won't say anything else like i'm not saying anything else like that's all i'll say he's just been under a lot of stress and prisca says we wanted to come as a family

and they're holding stuff back they don't want to be like you know i have a tumor and we're getting divorced they're not really being forthcoming with their information but then i think mid-size sedan says i came here last night with that girl we just met the night before um and bonded because she had cancer and i have been just recently recently diagnosed with a rare blood disease where my blood can't clot which is perhaps why his nose won't stop bleeding um and prisca says that they just stumbled upon this resort through some sort of ad they responded to like a sweepstakes maybe and it was all it all happened very fast and the resort basically organized everything for them booked their flights and whatnot.

So they're like, someone's doing this to us. And they look up at the top of the cliff and there's some sort of light coming from it, like maybe a light shining on them, maybe the reflection of a camera, something like that. They think that there's somebody up there watching them. them um and as oh and they realized that the hotel manager made them all leave their passports in their rooms um because he said like oh i don't want you to lose your passports on the beach and they kind of put together that they'll be able to take their stuff back to their houses and make it look like they had never left so that they could maybe just be missing persons and as they're all kind of gathered together prisca starts getting woozy she's like i feel i don't i don't feel good she collapses and at this point guy reveals she has a tumor and it's about three centimeters and Charles comes up to look at her.

He's a doctor and he's like, this is not three centimeters. This is the size of a baseball. And we look and the tumor is pretty big and it seems to be getting bigger by the minute. Oh, God. Where is it? It's on her hip, like low

abdomen. And she is unconscious and charles says we have to operate on her is that okay like that's your guide are you okay with that he's like i can't i don't want to make this decision but like yeah it's like i guess i guess we have to and they get a knife, slice into her abdomen and make like a big like five inch incision. And it just immediately heals back up. And they're like, fuck. And they're like, we have to all hold it open. And so they again, again, slice.

And he's just and this is the part where I actually i mean i guess i'm just gross but i wish that it was rated r because they just don't this is all basically played on all of their faces and so you just yeah aside from the original aside from the first like incision um which they do show but they don't show anyone's hands in it um which i wish they did but they yeah no i don't think that's you being gross i think it's like hey if you're gonna fucking do it do it yeah yeah if you're like we're all gonna hold this woman's body open while the tumor it's like fucking do it

they're like saying things they're they're describing things verbally that I'm like just fucking show it like they're like the skin the healing around our fingers and I'm like show it this is the thing with M. Night Shyamalan movies I feel like Split was R but I feel like most of them are PG-13 he's trying to get that PG-13

money yeah he really is he really is and for good reason because it works in his favor but so by the time they are actually able to make a large enough incision the tumor is the size of a cantaloupe and they do show they do show them

lifting it out and it is pretty gross oh but they don't i mean they don't even have to sew her back up it just it just closes up and heals on its own so that's one benefit of the surgery happening here is that it just heals she wakes up and she feels fine wow okay. Okay. That's great. I love this beach. Oh, and something that happens while Charles is doing the surgery is he says, like, mid-surgery, he says, there's a movie starring Jack Nicholson and Marlon Brando. What is the name of that movie? What's the name of that movie? And Crystal, his wife, is kind of like, okay, can we focus here? And he won't stop saying it he like

says it over he's getting dementia keeps like pausing and it's like what's the name of that movie what's the name of that movie um so they get they get that out they're all kind of recovering mid-sized sedan walks back over to the girl the dead girl covered with the towel lifts it up it's just bones now and they he screams calls everyone over they're like what the fuck how long has would it take to do that and prisca set prisca works at a museum and so she's like i don't totally know but i i think it would usually take about seven years for a body to decompose um and they're like she just died and so this they start kind of doing some math they all have like convenient jobs for this i love a movie with math and they

realize that they're aging about two years per hour and the kids it's obviously showing much more dramatically because they are going through puberty and a lot of changes but an adult aging two years isn't necessarily a visible change so for the for the older for the grandma and the kids it's obviously more noticeable but the rest of them they they're all aging at the same rate. It's just less visible on the middle-aged people. Got it. Okay. That answers that question, because I didn't know if it was faster for the children. No, it's same

speed. But so, okay, so two years per hour means... So how long have they fucking been on this beach? That's a long day. I know, they've already been there for a while. The kids have aged five years apiece. So a couple hours. Two and a half hours? Yeah. Alright, I guess that's not that long.

It's a long day on the beach. I can't be on the beach. I can't be on the beach longer than 45 minutes. And so, yeah, they basically realized that 24 hours is 48 years. And so they have like a day ish to get off this

beach oh fuck before they die that feels that's a lot that's a lot yeah that's too much uh and in all of this commotion they've been distracted and we look over maddox is now an adult woman. Kara and Trent are now teenagers. So they're look about 17 and she's probably 21, 22. So now are they the actors? Yes. Now they're Alex Wolfe, Eliza Scanlon and Thomas and Mackenzie. Yes. And so your other question is that it is funny that they're still kind of acting like kids and alex wolf specifically well no i guess all of them i think they all actually do a pretty good

good performances where it's they're childlike but not like ridiculous like it's not like silly it's a little silly but i think they do do good. They do a good job. And, uh, well, some things will happen in a bit. That'll kind of also help explain it. But this is also when Prisca notices guys getting wrinkles, which how Gail Garcia Bernal didn't have wrinkles before is crazy. Lucky. I have,

I have wrinkles. Yeah, me too. Um, and, uh, wrinkles yeah me too um and uh then we hear crystal start screaming on the other side of the beach and we see charles murdering mid-sized sedan stabbing him over and over and over in the chest like muttering to himself like you're like dangerous like i don't know he's he's Charles is clearly becoming more and more unhinged. Everyone nervously approaches him and are trying to get this knife away from him. And they eventually do.

And he kind of is shaking and and sits down and is muttering to himself, kind of goes and sits in the in the corner of the beach by himself. They're all say we need to keep an eye on him we've got the knife away from him and um is mid-size sedan dead oh yeah yeah he stabbed him oh yeah he stabbed him many many times yeah yeah well then i would say they definitely do need to keep an eye on this man they just murdered someone else for no reason at the very least let's keep an eye let's just keep an eye let's keep an eye on him uh they the adults are kind of grouped together they send the kids to uh well i don't know where maddox goes but cara and trent go in a little tent by themselves and they're laying talking to each other and kind of realizing that or one of them says like our bodies are changing, but like my mind is changing to like I feel different. Seemingly getting less childlike mentally as well. Like they are also emotionally aging.

Oh, interesting. Okay. They're cognizant of that they're gonna miss prom that they're gonna miss out on these other things they're saying this isn't fair they're they're sounding like teenagers that makes sense because it sounds like charles has some kind of brain yeah like disease and so it's obviously affecting your brain as well which i think is yeah the way to the i'm glad that it is this way and that they're not just acting like six-year-olds um so they they they do initially at first just to kind to kind of bridge that gap and then quickly kind of start acting their own age but still with

they're just totally confused and scared and so um but they're huddled together in this little tent and you know they're starting to get horny yeah i just i just figured out how she gets pregnant i just figured it out oh boy and oh god and if if two if it two years is one hour, nine months is fast. Really fast. Really fast. All right. No, sorry, Sammy.

You tell it. I'm just freaked out. And so you see them kind of like, oh, like, I'm feeling weird. And they're kind of touching each other's faces. And we're like, oh, boy. Oh, boy. Oh, no. And then we go back to the group of adults jaron is saying

does it like who's the strongest swimmer does anyone feel like they could swim out of this cove that's about a hundred meters or so and then an unknown length to wherever the next shore is like basically we have to get out of this cove and then who knows how much longer it is the other way nobody's nobody's jumping to volunteer for this but he's just saying you know we're doing we're spitballing here there we've got to get off this fucking island and or off this beach and um then they're like okay where are the kids and they come walking back to the direction of the tent and the way this is filmed is really cool the camera's just panning back and forth and so we're on the parents and we see kind of all of their facial expressions as they see the kids emerge from the tent and pan over and we see she's fully like looks to be five months pregnant

and oh my god they're holding hands and everyone is just in such shock and but they're doing the math real quick and like there's no time to be like you guys had sex they're just very quickly like this is a medical issue and uh the yeah camera's just like as someone who just gave birth i would like to say i am so glad it didn't happen to me in this this certainly really dodged a bullet this certainly seems worse than regular regular birth yeah yep yep yep and uh so yeah it's panning back and forth basically each time the camera gets to cara she is more pregnant they lay her down they're like it's happening now her stomach is growing in front of her eyes she is screaming in panic she calls to her mom mom i'm scared her mom is so freaked out that her mom runs away her mom by the way is like 20

something right and so it's like definitely not prepared prepared for this and just kind of runs away in shock and collapses and um we see trent freaking out and guy holding trent trying to calm him down trent yells i'll marry her i'll marry her i'm gonna marry her oh that's so sad that ain't the concern oh buddy oh we don't care. That's really cute, though. It was cute. I liked that little touch. And while the camera is on Trent, we hear the baby cry. And then we hear the baby stop crying.

And the camera pans back over. Baby is wrapped in a towel. Baby has died. And someone says the baby died from lack of attention. The baby was set down for a minute and it died. Because a minute

is I guess I don't know. I can't do that fast enough. Oh that's so sad. That is so sad. I don't like that. Why is there a dead baby in every movie we do you guys? I don't like it. I don't like that. Why is there a dead baby in every movie we do, you guys? I don't like it. I don't like it.

We knew this baby's life wasn't going to be good regardless. Honestly, for them, I feel like it's maybe lucky that now they don't have another baby, instant child, instant teen. I would have been interesting to see a baby progress through all the stages, though. That would have been interesting. We can't fucking do that. I would have been interesting to see a baby progress through all the stages though.

That would have been interesting. But lack of attention. Wow, that makes me so sad. Sorry, Henley. Yeah. Okay, moving on. Are they all starving? That just reminds me, like, should they be eating constantly?

Yes, okay, so I haven't, I forgot to mention but yeah, remember how the gave them tons and tons of food. And so yes, they are they be eating yes okay so i haven't i forgot to mention but yeah remember how the the gave so much food tons and tons of food and so yes they are they are starving and especially yes the teenagers are eating the most they're eating a lot i said it before i'll say it again i like this beach lots of food lots of food that's a plus that's a plus for sure. And it's starting to get dark. And Patricia realizes she hasn't had a seizure all day, which by the way that time works should be impossible because she has them regularly. And Kara and Trent are crying over the loss of their baby.

God, I'm sorry, Henley, who is now just bones. A little blanket full of bones. Oh my god. Oh, that's so sad. That's so sad. I hate it. Charles sees Crystal and says, like, he's disgusted by her and he's like, go put

some makeup on. And we see Crystal now has wrinkles as well. And go put some makeup on? He's an asshole has wrinkles as well and um go put some he's an asshole oh well bad right well well charles is also like devolving into he did already murder someone this is you know yeah arguably worse i feel like also rufus sewell's like incapable Like he always plays an asshole Like he just looks like a fucking asshole He's great at it He looks scary and bad

I saw him at Little Dom's once but I didn't talk to him So I can't confirm or deny if he is an asshole Probably not I feel like usually when people play assholes all the time They're not actually assholes But who knows And so Crystal is mortified run goes and runs and hides in one of like there's kind of like some cave-y type areas where the rock goes in

and so she's just kind of run away from everybody um kara and trent bury their baby. And Kara kind of hits a breaking point and starts trying to climb the rock wall, which is just absolutely vertical. It's a 90 degree angle of rock. And she just starts climbing. And Trent is screaming at her to get down, to stop, because he's like, you're going to black out when you're climbing. Because anytime anyone gets to a certain point of trying to leave they black out and sure enough she gets really really high blacks out and falls to her death prisca and maddox are on a different part of the beach and they get in a fight and Prisca or Maddox confronts her basically about the divorce and says you're getting a divorce right like you

wouldn't tell us but you're getting a divorce and Prisca says yes there is i'm i'm really sorry and maddox is very angry and storms about to storm off and says i just need some time just another funny line and i think i think prisca might even say we don't have any time classic uh but maddox then goes into the water for a swim to clear her mind oh oh uh after after kara fell jaron went to to swim out he was like okay i'm gonna try to swim out and get help maddox goes into the water. Jaren's body floats up. Jaren died. Yep. Because if you black out swimming, you're

gonna drown. Really bad situation. Yeah. Don't want to be swimming. Not as bad as on top of a cliff, actually, but still pretty bad. The result is the same. The result is the same. And so now it's really getting dark.

And back on the beach, Patricia has seemingly a bunch of seizures at once. Like all of the seizures that had been put off. It just has one grand mal seizure. Weird. And dies. Fucking hell. And as they are trying to tend to her or holding her as she has just died guy's vision starts blurring completely and he can't see he's holding her and he can't see and

he's kind of looking around and everything's really really blurry and fading and like getting darker and we see prisca uh again again the camera like panning side to side like with her face as it looks like she's listening and she covers one ear and everything goes quiet so she's lost hearing in one of her ears and is losing hearing in her in her other ear are they looking like visibly older is everyone looking like does alex wolf age more and stuff like that um they kind of subtly um get more wrinkles and gray hair not not alex wolf and mcken thomas and mckenzie yet there's they're uh maybe Thomas and Mackenzie yet. They're maybe like stubble or something. Yeah. Yeah.

Okay. But Guy and Prisca, yes, are looking older. So they're all sitting on the beach. It's nighttime now. They're the only ones left. No, Charles is still alive. Charles and Crystal are still alive and we hear charles um muttering to himself again and hear the sound of a knife like a metal sound and guy looks over

and can just see like a shape moving towards him and he turns to Prisca to say what is that what is that and she can't hear him and so they're just like sitting there as Charles approaches with the knife and starts just slicing them with a knife and as he's like he's like flinging the knife at them slicing a guy puts his arms up to defend himself, getting sliced across the arms. And the wounds are just immediately healing. So he's able to just be like sliced over and over and using his arms as a shield and is staying somewhat safe because he's just healing so quickly. safe because he's just healing so quickly and at one point prisca uh puts herself over guy as a shield and just gets slices all over her back and so her shirt's all torn up but again it's just healing and healing she yells at the kids to go hide

um so they uh go into another little rock no it's four against one fucking tackle this old fucker and they're trying yeah i don't know they're just they don't have any weapon and so i don't know yeah they should tackle them but um so they run they run to hide and they run into crystal who is in the like a little cave basically and they have a book of matches and they're lighting it to try to try to see her and she's like don't look at me don't look at me oh my god oh my god and we see her and she has um like scoliosis maybe we knew earlier that she had a calcium deficiency and so her her bones are growing uh not the right way and so she's looks uh like has a hunchback and also wrinkles and obviously only cares about her look so she's very um just really upset. And screaming at them. Don't look at, don't look at me. Don't look at me.

Um, and she picks up a big rock and looks like she's maybe going to throw it at them, but instead throws it on herself as a way to maybe try to kill herself. But she basically just drops a heavy rock on her shoulder, dislocates it, and it immediately heals out of place. Ew! And so her arm is stuck at this very unsettling angle.

And she starts, like, running at them. This part's pretty silly, but also interesting. It's fun, I guess. It's fun. I don't know. It's something. It's not like anything else and they are scared of her she's freaking out and chases them through this small little rock tunnel but she's flailing around freaking out and each time she hits the wall her she's like breaking a limb and it's healing wrong and so she i don't know maybe she's trying to kill herself in this way of just like she's realized that this is all she can do i like all the all

the only way she can hurt herself but so she's basically flinging herself against the walls over and over and we see her arms and legs just basically become zigzag broken at every spot and she turns up like scrunches up into a little like spider and eventually dies that way and so they watch her kill herself in this very very crazy way. What? Okay. I guess you can die that way. I don't know. Eventually you probably like smush

your organs or can't breathe. I don't know. Yeah. And then we see back on the beach Prisca returns to Guy who is still getting sliced and she slices Charles on the beach prisca returns to guy who is still getting sliced and she slices uh charles on the arm and we zoom in on the cut and it's not healing and it's just pouring more blood and he's looking at it everyone kind of stops thinking why isn't this healing And she shows her knife is one of the rusted knives

that was already on the beach from a previous picnic basket. And she says rust acts like poison in the bloodstream. And we see it basically just spread this dark color under his skin, like he's getting blood poisoning. And his skin turns black under his skin like he's getting blood poisoning and his skin turns black under his skin it spreads through his whole body until he dies it basically overcomes him it's pretty gross he's like looks like his skin is burning from the inside it looks bad awful yeah so he dies So now we are just the family of four

and they sit together on the beach. It's fully night time. It's fully night time and Guy and Prisca are clearly aging a lot. They're old now. And

one is deaf. One is basically blind, and they're just kind of holding each other and with their kids next to them. And at some point he says, I saw your text messages and I should have said something. I'm such a coward. I thought if I ignored it, it would go away.

And I'm sorry that you I thought if I ignored it it would go away and I'm sorry that you felt that that was your only escape or something like that like I should have been better to you and she says she's sorry too and then they're silent for a moment and then he looks at her like he can't remember what they were just talking about. And he says, were we just fighting about something? Were we just having an argument? She says, yeah, we were.

But I'm not mad. And he's like, I'm not mad either. And then they both just die in each other's arms. Oh, wow. Right next to their children. Oh, wow. Right next to their children. And then the sun comes up the next morning and Maddox and Trent are new actors now. They are look to be in their 40s or 50s.

And there's some line in here where Trent says feels like just yesterday we were kids which was very silly and necessary but it's like aware that it's silly at least like i feel like he's trying to make a joke but um so they look weary worse worse for wear like they've kind of given up a bit they're not they don't look scared anymore they're just kind of resolved to i guess we're gonna die here pretty soon too we've tried all the exits basically we've run out of options here so they're kind of walking around the beach arm and arm like i said it would be you and me to the end and like like i've always got your back and like we'll we'll be we'll go through this together and uh they find a notebook on the beach and open it and it has basically a bunch of names and ages and addresses of people who we assume were the last group of people on this beach that this happened to and so and whoever was here with this notebook last was

writing down kind of their theory of what was happening and they said say it's something to do with the magnetism of the rocks obviously there's going to be no real science behind this. So I'm not even really going to try to explain it. But something to do with magnets and rocks. And they decide if we had some sort of metal tube that we could go out of, it might block the magnetism for whatever it's doing as people have been trying to escape. And they're like, where the fuck are we going to like? There's no metal tube around here.

And they're like, yeah, like it's it's hopeless. Like it's not going to happen. And so they sit back down and Trent says, you want to build a sandcastle? And she's like, yeah. you want to build a sandcastle? And she's like, yeah. And so they start building a little sandcastle and they're just kind of enjoying their time together,

reflecting on their lives, saying like he's talking about Idlib being like Idlib and I, we were supposed to have ice cream today and and says he's like, it's so funny we would write those we wrote those notes to each other in

in code like we thought we were spies um and he's like actually you wrote me another note i forgot to ever decode it and she's like do it now oh god and he's like okay here we go here we go here it is so he pulls it out dec, and it says, my uncle doesn't like the coral. And they're both staring at it. And then they look out to the water and there's basically a coral reef out a ways into the water. And they're like, OK, well, that maybe there's some sort of answer there they start swimming out to it and see that there's it's basically like an underwater tunnel through this coral reef so they start swimming through it and then maddox's shirt gets caught on Coral. And they can't free it.

They can't free it. And the Coral's very stressful, too, because you just always think of, like, bumping into Coral. It's like, it just looks so painful. Yeah, so sharp. And this is just, like, wall to wall. They're just surrounded by Coral. And her shirt gets caught. They can't get out.

And then we see M. Night Shy shamalon watching them from atop the cliff with binoculars he's got a little laptop set up he's uh watches for a bit watches watches watches and then calls someone on his cell phone says they're they're dead they died they drowned some experiment 73 all this is all subjects dead and then goes back to the resort which is i guess in the back area just entirely a lab everybody from the resort in lab coats doing little tests got we got beakers we got a bunch of shit happening okay and we see the resort manager saying moment of silence for test subject group 73 everyone bows their head in silence he says thank you um we had a really great success with this uh test subject so and so patricia what's her name uh had no seizure for eight and a half hours which translates to i don't know however many years in 16 or 18 17 years. And he's like, so he's like, so the medication that we gave her was a success and cured her seizures for the amount of time for the half life of the medication or whatever it is.

And we learned that they're running medical experiments. Basically, they can test medic medicine for a lifetime on people in a day so they can find out the efficacy of drugs much more quickly than they would if they were running regular drug trials and so they're like this is a huge success we've basically cured epilepsy and there's some talk of like, I think we should have the neurological patients separate from physical patients in the future. Like mixing those is a little bad. Killed a few that maybe shouldn't,

we would have seen the results. Do it on rats. Why are we doing this on humans? Maybe we should think about that. And I mean, of course, anytime there's a big reveal it's just like it's not going to be good. Like there's

no way to I feel like have had this ending be good other than just keeping it vague, keeping it ambiguous. That's the way to do it. Don't answer my questions because they're going to be stupid answers. But anyway, so yeah, we find out that it's just a big like medical

experiment and okay, then we see Anyway, so yeah, we find out that it's just a big, like, medical experiment. And then we see the hotel manager goes back to the main area of the resort. We see Idlib looking really sad. And he says to him, like, next time, just you can play with the kids that I tell you to play with. Like, I told you not to play with that boy. Like, go play with those kids over there. Those kids are fine so there's enough of a front at this resort that there are guests that don't come here and die um and we see on the beach the people that they had been speaking to uh that idlib and trent had gone up to and asked ask their names and occupations and we see

someone come up to one of the men and say hey you're a cop right and hand the notebook that we saw them find on the beach and so we see that um maddox and trent did in fact survive. It cuts back to them freeing themselves from the coral tunnel and coming out the other side. And that was the way that they escaped. And I guess M. Night Shyamalan just didn't watch for long enough. And they did in fact come out. It's just very funny to not be like, I'm going to spot for you know 15 minutes instead of three um so they did they came out and they hand the turn in this uh journal with all these names to the cop and we see police arriving and we see the cop it's kind of a montage type thing we see the cup on the phone confirming that these are in fact all missing

persons and calling in police and we see maddox and trent confront the hotel manager and all of them look like the jig is up and everyone's all the employees are looking very stressed, like, oh, fuck. And he sees Idlib, Trent and Idlib reunite. And Idlib kind of takes a moment and then recognizes him. His six-year-old friend is now in his 50s. Oh, wow. And they get taken out on a, like lifted out in like a helicopter like they're leaving the resort it's the cop and maddox and trent and uh they're taking them to their aunt's house and they he says like how's your aunt taking this and trent says how would you take it if your six and 11 year old niece and

nephew were 50 in their fifties in a day? And that's like the last line of the movie. And it ends with them like, hmm, yeah, that'd be pretty weird. And they're all just kind of like nod at each other. Like, yeah, that's weird. And that's the end oh my god oh my god honestly great all of it perfectly tracks with what I feel like it was exactly what I wanted it's pretty fun it's like silly it's scary

there's some parts that are genuinely touch on very real fears and real things that are dark and sad in life. And it's funny and fucking weird. And there's no other movie like it. I had a great time. It's a great concept.

I'm like actually surprised it hadn't been done. I mean, it would be harder to do before like CGI is better, you know, where it is now. But yeah, whatever. Great. Perfect. Love it. before like cgi was better you know where it is now but um yeah whatever great perfect love it didn't need to be anything more than what it was you go in with those m night shamalon expectations and you're gonna have a great time

wait is it shamalon is it is it shamalon i don't know i don't know i i've i've been saying shamalon shamalon shamalon you say shamalon i say i can only say shamalon apparently i always heard shamalon but i don't know i think i think that's probably right wait what'd you say before sammy oh bullock. Sandra Bullock. I feel like now I know it for sure because of inside Bo Burnham, there's a song that references Sandra Bullock.

Sandra Bullock in the blind side. Sandra Bullock. Bullock. Sandra Bullock. Sandra Bullock. Wow. Thank you for doing this for us, Sammy. I desperately needed to know what happened.

And this is the perfect way to consume that sweet, sweet content. Yeah. I'd say M. Night Shyamalan movies are perfect for this type of thing. Because you just want to know what happens. You just want to know what happens. Tell me what the deal is. Tell me what the dealio is. And Henley, you made it.

I made it. Woohoo. Now I'm going to go feed my baby. Yay. That's what I'm going to do. It's an important thing to do. Yeah, babies need feeding. Babies need to be fed.
