For those of you who can’t access the explicit version or the movie: Mia’s mom overdosed on sleeping pills and locked herself in the bedroom. Mia thinks it was an accident, and the ghost possessing Riley tells her it wasn’t suicide. Mia’s dad reads her the suicide note that he’d kept hidden.

It's amazing how a couple of YouTubers made this movie on a $4 million dollar budget and it made $90 million at the box office. I love it when smaller passion projects like this get the love they deserve and make it big. This movie is a better drug PSA than most actual PSA's. Mia is grieving, finds a drug that takes away the pain however briefly and she gets addicted to it. It starts to ruin her life and hurt her friends and instead of abandoning the drug she starts relying on it more and more until it takes her life. Her lying to the moms face " i know you wouldnt do anything to hurt him" when she is planning to stab Riley in the next few minutes is clear as fucking day parallel to how drug addicts treat the people who love them.

I love how direct the metaphor for drug use was in the movie. The belt symbolizing a tourniquet, the lighting of the candle being the lighting of a drug, and the eyes dilating so much. I also like how the movie makes the addiction demonic and not the one addicted. A+ movie

I think Mia's dad died and him taking the elevator up signified him going to Heaven while Mia was stuck in Limbo.

To me, this is the purest example of what indie and quality horror is.

I'd like to point out how cold all the partygoers were to mia's perspective until she volunteered for the hand shake, and then everyone seemingly came to life.

The water sounds as the "mom" talks is my favorite thing about the whole film. I originally didn't notice it wasn't her mom until the lady was starting to deteriorate.

The hand is such a smart addition to the script. It adds an iconic visual that everyone will remember when discussing this film for years to come.

I like that it made the possessions like a drug addiction rather than the conventional supernatural approach, including the aftermath of overdosing. While I imagine the upcoming sequel will probably delve deeper into the origins of the hand's power, I appreciated that this film keeps it fairly vague.

That eye scene was sick af. The movie was tame until that point made it even disturbing.

When Riley started smashing his face and almost gouging his eyes out the movie really got my attention definitely a really good film can't wait to see their prequel

I found my dad passed away in his chair a few years ago. This movie really does a good job showing what it’s like living with that traumatizing memory of not only losing a loved one but actually finding their body.

Incredible how 2 brothers making traumatizing Ronald McDonald skits from our childhoods to a whole-ass fucking horror movie. I'm really impressed.

The entire movie is already a clever metaphor for drug addiction but what really adds to the punch is that EVERYONE was fine doing the drug recreationally at first until suddenly one of them wasn't. And folks were so worried about one character that they completely missed the fact that Mia was ALSO spiraling until it was too late. There are so many people out there dealing with addiction without them or even people they know realizing. You drink with them. You smoke with them. You think they have quirks but for the most part everything is fine. And then it's not...

I'm fairly sure Mia's dad died, but the elevator going up signifies he went to heaven while Mia is stuck in limbo

“These videos aren’t substitutes for the actual movies” is a pretty bold thing to say to me, whom doesn’t really watch horror movies but enjoys watching your videos 😂

I regret that I assumed this would be another stereotypical and boring possession story. I ended up watching it, and it was fantastic!! It could’ve easily been like the other thousands of “kids mess with stuff they shouldn’t have and suffer consequences” stories, but it felt so fresh and genuinely good. The ending in particular was chilling, and I respect that they went there

Their reaction to A24 buying their film is the most genuine thing! They’re so happy! 😂

I won't lie, this is probably my favorite kill count as of late. The way this movie and the kill count made me feel after watching it was a feeling I can't describe and it's amazing. This weird era is going amazing
