2023-10-16 06:46:07 +0000 UTCSo, not a fun scary? Lol, I'm sorry I thought for you, and yes Carly, that was gonna be scary yes, but kind of a fun ride? I knew you would love the fam so that worked out at least. It actually was a bit creepier than I remember so I for sure understand why you were freaking. It had me looking at some suspect shadows on my covers. Ben, my bru, I don't know what is left for scary movies, but if Cassie still has some to record can you do us a favour and check on her? lol oh my word, I'm sorry Cass but that will never, not make me laugh.

2023-10-14 01:21:19 +0000 UTCI found a large spider in my house which I've named Cotton Eye Joe. Because I have no idea where he did come from or where he did go!

2023-10-14 00:53:32 +0000 UTCThis reaction makes for an entertaining Friday night. Oddly enough, it's my favorite of yours so far! Keep up the great work, Cassie!

2023-10-14 00:20:55 +0000 UTCI saw this in the theater. My dad took my sister and I to see it. I was 10!! I remember the 3 of us having a great time jumping and watching this movie. I do have to correct you though Cassie. Jeff daniels is not and has never been on full house. You are confusing him with Dave coulier who played uncle Joey. There is also no uncle Danny on full house. Danny was the dad played by the late bob saget. I figured you would’ve watched that show growing up since it’s so family friendly. You watched Jeff daniels in speed. He’s also famous for being in dumb and dumber. Just thought I would clear things up for ya 😉 Great reaction as always. Also please consider doing what lies beneath. It’s not a Halloween movie. It can be watched anytime of the year cause it’s a thriller not a horror film. Just think about it. Harrison ford is sooooo good in that movie. Anyway have a great week and can’t wait for next weeks uploads.

2023-10-13 18:54:45 +0000 UTCNope she didn’t cuss in the shining. People went back and replayed it. I remember it was debated in the comment section for awhile. It does sound like it but nope didn’t happen.
brooke atkins
2023-10-13 18:49:00 +0000 UTCI watch that movie like once a year, it really is just a fun movie lol
LuMarq
2023-10-13 17:16:57 +0000 UTCI can't stand spiders. Just yesterday, I was in bed when an earwig ran across my laptop. I never did find him, and I also didn't sleep last night. And by the way, Have you ever thought about a handheld battery fan? You looked like you were about to black out 🥵 I still think you should do the Fly; it might be creepy, but not nearly the jump scares this one had. And people shouldn't bang on your door when watching horror movies. It's not good for the heart; you about gave me a heart attack.
Eddie Perkins
2023-10-13 15:10:44 +0000 UTCIf you want big “Hairy” Potter spiders there is a movie called Eight Legged Freaks from 2002 I think. It’s basically a cheesy B movie with lots of special effects. It is in no way a good movie but if you know what you’re getting into it’s pretty fun.
Jeff Chance
2023-10-13 13:34:56 +0000 UTCI was working at a hospital once and went to the bathroom to do #1. As I was going, the longest roach or some kind of water bug, about 6 inches long with antennas, swam up from the bottom and crawled out. Because I was at work and in public, I kept my cool. But I got out of there as fast as I could safely zip up. Imagine sitting down when something like that happens.
Larry Darrell
2023-10-13 13:30:11 +0000 UTC@Stick Yeah, when TBR Schmitt watched it, he said, "Oh, great -- now I can't shit OR take a shower!" haha. His wife Samantha said she already checked the toilet every time before doing her business, and this movie was NOT gonna help that lol
Dan
2023-10-13 08:53:16 +0000 UTCLook on the bright side: you're going to enjoy Tucker and Dale vs. Evil. Like, for real.

2023-10-13 04:56:58 +0000 UTCSuggesting that Carly join you was mostly for support. I’m usually braver when I’m with someone, especially around bugs. Even as a kid, if there was a bee, wasp or spider that came around, I’d be the only one that remained calm and didn’t freak out. Although if I was Alone… I would freak the Freak out. So, guiltily, I’ll say I’m kind of glad Carly wasn’t there, if it would of taken away from your scaredy-Cass-ness. This was an Awesome Reaction, to some Good-Natured Scares… that just might stick with you for a while. This film makes you shake your shoes out before putting them on, check behind picture frames from time to time, look in the toilet before sitting down, shake your hats or helmets out too, definitely check that Popcorn Bowl… and all around just look out for the little things that move out of the corner of your eye. Because you know they’re there. ;-) —————————————- One time, (I’ll admit in my late 20s), I was watching TV in bed one night. It was dark and the only light was from the TV. Out of the corner my eye I saw something move. When I looked, nothing was moving. Then all of sudden this little black spot sprinted towards me and got within arms reach. And I mean SPRINTED. It was a Spider about the size of a 1/2 Dollar Coin, on my covers, right next to me. The light from the TV kept changing, so I kept losing sight of it. Then it moved towards me a little more again. I’m not embarrassed to say, I froze… for a moment. I kept thinking if I moved, the covers would move, then he would move, and I would lose him somewhere in the bed. All I had that was hard to hit it with was the remote, but even then, it’s still on a soft bed, so the remote might just bounce off it. After what seemed like forever, all at once, I hit it with the remote, then smushed the covers all around the remote, and squeezed and squeezed. I had to wash my sheets afterwards. The Big Gooey Spider Guts was the only reason… I assure you, the Only Reason I had to wash my sheets.

2023-10-13 04:56:05 +0000 UTCI liked, “Take the Cat, Not Her.”
Larry Darrell
2023-10-13 03:50:29 +0000 UTCCassie said in a recent Live that it is on her schedule already, coming up after October. She wants to see more Kurt Russell. Pretty sure She said this, because I remember typing into chat, something like, “oooohhh Backdraft! Yeah.”
Larry Darrell
2023-10-13 03:48:43 +0000 UTCBen's entrance had to be the best jump scare in PiB history. This is a fun B movie. Act I and II are good, Act III is pretty silly, but I enjoy this one.
SeanATX
2023-10-13 03:47:14 +0000 UTCYeah, I was feeling the “fomo” and I think I handled it worse then Cassie did😂. It made me yell out loud “Get your hands off stuff!!!”
Cole Jennett
2023-10-13 03:39:19 +0000 UTCJust from this reaction, I actually preferred “you…are…choosing…death!”
Cole Jennett
2023-10-13 03:37:58 +0000 UTC@Clay the only thing that makes me think she said "Mother Fugger" or some innocent variant is that they didn't bleep it in the YouTube version. Typically they would bleep any bad words to keep the video getting demonetized? Right?
Philip Alan
2023-10-13 03:31:18 +0000 UTC@Clay Wow, I totally missed that. Not much of a hard K, but pretty close. Ha!

Brian Lowery
2023-10-12 23:21:50 +0000 UTCI've always hated spiders since watching the movie Krull as a kid. The effects are terrible but freaked me out as a kid. This is Similar to Harry Potter 2 with the spiders in the forest. Both freaked me out. One time maybe a decade ago I went with my brother's family and my two niece to a reptile and insect Zoo and during the show they bring out big snakes and like that. One of the exhibits was a tarantula and as the zookeeper held him you could either pet his back or hold your finger up and he was supposed to give your finger like a high five. My brother's family and my nieces know that I'm scared of spiders but I thought I'd be brave so I went up and held my finger out for the thing to give me a high five. The spider wouldn't do anything so for some reason the zookeeper thought it would be a good idea to poke him from behind and the thing jumped up and ran up my arm! I screamed like a maniac! Fortunately the zookeeper caught the thing and put it in its cage. My nieces always laugh at the time that the spider made me crap my pants! In that moment it was I kind of thought it was him or me I was getting ready to squish him with my shoe. 😂😲🕷️🕸️

2023-10-12 23:01:31 +0000 UTCThat was a fun watch along. If you want to face more of your fears this month The Mothman Prophecy with Richard Gere is a good watch. More suspense than scary. Thanks Cassie!

2023-10-12 22:26:32 +0000 UTCOk,ok,ok... Arachnophobia may have been a bridge too far, for Carly.
Bill Hayden
2023-10-12 22:24:24 +0000 UTCAgree. Cassie was exceptionally good with this movie.
Rick Williams
2023-10-12 22:21:02 +0000 UTCYes, Cassie and Carly would love it.
Rick Williams
2023-10-12 22:17:45 +0000 UTCCassie you are a great screamer. I didn't remember anything about this movie. I saw it so long ago that I only remembered John Goldman's character. Great reaction. I enjoyed watching you. You were more entertaining then the movie. Who said Carly would handle this? They are crazy. Speaking of your great screaming. Now you need to watch, Scream. 😀
Rick Williams
2023-10-12 22:11:57 +0000 UTC1:14:49 "Oh no, why couldn't it have been number one?" Out of all of your movie reactions, I think that's the funniest thing you have ever said Cassie!
David C. Krapf
2023-10-12 21:43:13 +0000 UTCI hate spiders, and this movie will always give me the creeps. I don't so much hate the big hairy spiders like tarantulas, its the spindly long legged type ones...ugh. Thanks for all your videos and thanks for always putting them in a collection for us. So nice to look through the different collections to decide what to watch depending on my mood.

2023-10-12 21:26:01 +0000 UTCThe fire scenes in that film are insane.

2023-10-12 20:34:17 +0000 UTCCassie would love Backdraft!
Just Plain Bob
2023-10-12 20:30:26 +0000 UTCHey, Cassie! May I suggest a firefighter movie called Backdraft (1991). It's a Ron Howard film that stars Kurt Russell, Billy Baldwin, Robert DeNiro, Donald Southerland, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Rebecca DeMornay. It takes place in the city of Chicago. Kurt and Billy play brothers who don't get along and have to work together as firefighters while they deal with an arsonist. It's a CRAZY GOOD movie... I promise you won't be disappointed! My husband is a career firefighter/EMT and I'm an EMT. There aren't many movies about what we do. This is my favorite of all time! Have a great weekend!
fire12wife
2023-10-12 20:28:35 +0000 UTCThe best scary movies, I think, are the ones that tap into those primal universal fears that we all share.
Stick Figure Studios
2023-10-12 20:13:56 +0000 UTCThat is precisely what makes it so horrifying. It seems like a normal occurrence that could happen to anyone. In my area, there are some spiders that pose some threat, but none of them are lethal or frequent in homes. However, when I read about people who unwittingly bring home a bunch of bananas with a dangerous spider, or even worse a whole nest attached to it, that just makes me feel extremely anxious.
Gábor Árki
2023-10-12 20:10:10 +0000 UTCThis movie left a lasting impression on me and not in a good way. Can I go back and change my vote to THE FLY please? 😅 I had seen a part of it on television many years ago, but I could not bear to watch the whole thing because of my mild (maybe not so mild after all 🤨) fear of spiders. I finally decided to give it another chance. That final 20 minutes were nerve-wracking. I felt my pulse racing, my palms sweating and even I felt like being paralyzed just seeing what was on the screen. I don't think I was on the level as Cassie, but I can truly empathize with her fear and dread. Haven't seen a reaction like this since THE SHINING. Cassie, you mentioned that you would like to see a different kind of movie, where a doctor moves to a small town and tries to fit in, etc. That reminded me of a romantic comedy starring Michael J Fox called DOC HOLLYWOOD (1991). I think you would really enjoy it.
Gábor Árki
2023-10-12 19:52:06 +0000 UTCI can deal with most any animal, but not spiders. Me and my gf have a deal… I take care of the snakes (catch and release) and she gets the spiders. Gotta love Georgia sometimes 😅
Josh Phillips
2023-10-12 19:47:43 +0000 UTCGood comments. That was one hell of a scream she let out. Her reaction to The Shining is also a pinnacle. The genuine dread. One example in The Shining reaction is her letting out a sincere "Oh mother f*cker" at 1:22:52 (sync 01:19:46).
Clay F
2023-10-12 19:17:52 +0000 UTCGreat reaction. As a kid this movie terrified me. Especially the basement scene with the General. Great movie. Great cast. Especially John Goodman with his comedic presence. Unfortunately I can never seperate Jeff Daniels from Harry Dunne. Anyways, if this scenario ever plays out irl I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
Eric
2023-10-12 18:45:37 +0000 UTCGood movie and good reaction. I do not have a phobia of spiders, but this movie is creepy to me nonetheless. I hadn't watched the movie since 1991. Goodman is awesome in this and in The Big Lewbowski. I also like Jeff Daniels. The Newsroom (2012) (3 seasons). Jeff Daniels won an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for his role in The Newsroom series that I very much liked. Godless (2017) (1 season - limited series) Jeff Daniels won a well-deserved Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or Movie for his role in Godless -- a limited series I highly recommend. Jeff Daniels is stunning.
Clay F
2023-10-12 18:45:29 +0000 UTCAside- A Goliath Bird Eater is also one of the main "characters" in the book Jam by Yahtzee Croshaw. I highly recommend the audiobook.

Stick Figure Studios
2023-10-12 17:38:08 +0000 UTCThis movie brilliantly finds all the places in our everyday home life to make potential places to encounter a spider (the shower, the toilet, the popcorn bowl, the lamp, etc).

James UK
2023-10-12 17:29:34 +0000 UTCJust finished watching it with you for the first time as an adult. I can't believe my parents showed me that as a kid... For some reason, I remembered it as sort of playful-scary. Almost sorry I contributed to you watching this :)
Tringard
2023-10-12 17:26:29 +0000 UTCThis has to be one of the best reactions in the history of this channel. Without saying when it occurs or what prompted it, I think you let out the biggest scream I've ever seen you do during this reaction (bigger even than your POLTERGEIST one). I would definitely nominate that for a Poppy. Would you have done better with THE FLY? Maybe. You might not have been as scared but you would definitely have been more grossed out and disturbed. If you do want to watch it, I'd say go for it. It's a very good movie. But I am really glad this won the poll. I love this movie. Yes, it's scary... as it should be. Part of its genius is that it's not giant mutated spiders, but the kind of small ordinary ones you encounter in every day life. That makes it seem more plausible and, consequently, terrifying. But as you point out, it's also sweet, funny (love John Goodman's character) and just fun. Great cast of memorable character actors. Jeff Daniels is fantastic (thus was the first thing I ever saw him in) and Julian Sands (RIP) plays his character with a marvelously bizarre touch of eccentricity. He's not a bad guy (someone you want to die), but he's sort of detached and aloof... almost like he's more comfortable with insects than people. He was a fine actor. He'll be missed. Anyway, hope it wasn't too traumatizing for you. If it scared you, it did its job as a horror movie (or "thrill-omedy" as it was promoted when it was released). Nice job. Keep up the good work. :-)

2023-10-12 16:53:39 +0000 UTCAny rumors that I screamed like a little kid when I saw this movie as a college freshman back in 1990 are.... completely true, I am embarrassed to admit 🤣
Raj K. Dixit
2023-10-12 16:50:00 +0000 UTCNah, he banged on that door for only one purpose! TO SCARE CASSIE! I loved it! "You okay?" haha
Philip Alan
2023-10-12 16:48:58 +0000 UTCIncidentally, I would truthfully recommend Eight Legged Freaks for next Halloween. It's a pretty hilariously kinda sorta B movie, intentionally. It's hard to explain. I'd also recommend Evolution with David Duchovony.
Astraeos
2023-10-12 16:47:57 +0000 UTCI think The Fly is far more disturbing and gross than Arachnophobia. Cassie could probably handle it, as she lived through The Thing, but it would be tougher for her than Arachnophobia was.
Raj K. Dixit
2023-10-12 16:47:23 +0000 UTCThe smaller spiders were a harmless New Zealand species. The biggest one was a Goliath Bird Eater Tarantula from the Amazon - yes, they ARE that big! Nightmare fuel: look for them in YouTube videos or Google Images...
Raj K. Dixit
2023-10-12 16:44:37 +0000 UTCBest jump scare was when Ben walked in🤣

2023-10-12 16:29:57 +0000 UTCI loved your reaction. This was absolute gold. Ben scaring you was awesome. Everything about your reaction was the greatest Cassie. This was is why I subscribe Remember spiders kill mosquitoes that carry diseases.

2023-10-12 13:43:21 +0000 UTCSo I have owned two snakes in my life. I fed them live mice. My friend feeds live mice to his serval sometimes. So I have a story about this movie. In my town there was a theater that is now a craft store. When it was a theater, my friend and I were 10-11 years old. Bought tickets to this movie and then snuck into Freddy's Dead. The Final Nightmare.

2023-10-12 12:53:23 +0000 UTCI watched this movie as a kid and it scared the crap out of me! I've had nightmares for years about spiders crawling on me. Would actually wake me up thinking they were actually crawling on me. This is going to be a tough watch since I haven't been able to watch this movie all the way through since the first time. Think I'm gonna put the movie on my phone and your reaction on the bigger screen🤣
Katie Jackson
2023-10-12 12:13:55 +0000 UTCGee-wiz Cassie, you sure are a brave one! It's 4:30 in the morning and I just finished watching your reaction to this and I will admit, I did enjoy it, but the same time my fear got me a few times! This movie is kind of a mixed bag for me, I mean all scenes involving the characters exchanging dialogue make the movie enjoyable to watch because they just do it so naturally like every day people we all probably know in our lives, but when the spiders come on screen, the dread takes over! Believe me Cassie, every time you were showing an ounce of fear, I could feel exactly what you were feeling, so don't be ashamed or embarrassed about it! I'm not ashamed to admit it, but I do have arachnophobia myself! However, the smaller spiders don't bother me much, heck I actually play with daddy longleg spiders sometimes, but I avoid slightly bigger and deadly ones like the brown recluse and black widow! However, my phobia is of tarantulas, everytime I see one I get major shivers, if one was to crawl on me, I swear my heart would stop beating, I just know it! That really big spider you see in this movie as the main antagonist (the General) that particular species is known as the South American Goliath Birdeater and is considered to be the largest species of tarantula in the world, funny trivia about that particular one they used in this movie, the filmmakers nick-named it "Big Bob" after director Robert Zemekis! Luckily for what I know, they don't attack humans, but if they feel intimidated, they'll give off a "hiss" sound as a way to scare off predators, and if you back away, they'll not bite you! For them, biting is their way of self-defense! Please forgive me Cassie because I know you were utterly terrified practically throughout this whole movie and I feel ya I really do, but I can't help but laugh at all your jump scare moments throughout the movie, especially when your husband bursted in, that was just priceless, I bet that's probably going to be a winner for best jump scare at next years Poppies Awards lol🤣 Believe me when I say, the whole time I was watching this reaction, I kept your reaction on full screen while the movie played (synched) on YT because I just can't bare to look at the spiders in this movie! This is one of those movies, like you said, that you just want to erase from your memory, but you can't because it has it's good moments besides the terrifying moments! John Goodman's character really steals the show even though his character is kind of minor, but he's awesome in this! Overall, great reaction as always Cassie, despite how shivered I was, I did to a certain degree enjoy watching this reaction with you! To be honest, I don't think you would've faired any better if you watched THE FLY lol! Hope you have a good Thursday, love and support always, if I may say, you looked very pretty, I liked your hair bun! [virtual hug] God bless you, Carly, and your family! And as always [snaps fingers & winks] stay classy Cassie🥰😁😉😇🙏✌👍🌹
Wesley White
2023-10-12 11:57:42 +0000 UTCYou made it, Cassie! Great job! I do love this movie. The writing was fantastic: they gave you a reason to mourn Margaret and a reason to root for the other doctor and police officer to get bit. They were creative with the spider reveals and did a good job of keeping the audience on the edge of their seat, wondering who will and who won't get bit ("Please get the cop, please get the cop...!" haha). And some of those sequences were amazing, like when a dozen of them poured out of the orifices in the sink, and when that one spider jumped on the girl's face. This movie really knew how to get a reaction out of people!

2023-10-12 11:42:08 +0000 UTCThis movie is a big hypernope from me. I recall watching it as a kid and being fine with it but my perfectly rational and reasonable fear of spiders has got so much worse since (I'm not sure this movie didn't make it worse) and there's no way I could watch this now.

2023-10-12 11:41:29 +0000 UTCGood call … I think she was also the marble rye “old bag” from that infamous Seinfeld episode.

2023-10-12 11:39:59 +0000 UTCThe other doctor's wife was also the grandma in Happy Gilmore. Sorry your gf heard your meep haha
Dan
2023-10-12 11:31:07 +0000 UTCI wasn't sure if that was intentional or not -- did he just open the door and bump into something or did he drum his hands on a wall on purpose? It looked to me like it helped her with the movie, because she didn't react as nearly as much as I expected for the spider jumping on the girl's face! That one usually gets everyone, but Cassie was still coming down from the IRL scare lol

2023-10-12 11:30:34 +0000 UTCNatalie Gold and VKunia recently did a collab and watched it together, saying it would have been impossible to watch alone. I was semi-hoping both Cassie and Carly would handle it better with each other as mutual emotional support. But maybe not, I dunno /shrug!

2023-10-12 11:28:32 +0000 UTCThis movie may have adjusted her list haha When the patrons for the channel "You, Me, & The Movies" got the wife to watch it, the husband giddily explained that this movie gave him arachnophobia, which was less than inspiring to his wife. She said, "It GAVE you arachnophobia? Oh, great..." hahah. Afterward, her first words were directed at the patron who requested it: "Rude. That was really rude" haha. She was being facetious, so it was meant with humor, but the sentiment was understood rofl.

2023-10-12 11:26:18 +0000 UTCThis has been one of my favorites for a long time, so after so many years of it being passed over, I'm glad it's getting a lot of airtime this year! ^_^
Dan
2023-10-12 11:21:13 +0000 UTCone of my all-time faves, saw it so many times back in the day and still enjoy it now; it was advertised as a thrill-omedy and it sure is! Jeff Daniels is the Dumb & Dumber guy, he was also in Speed with Keanu Reeves, while Joey on Full House is Dave Coulier…I believe the two actors are friends in real life and have an ongoing joke about being confused for one another

2023-10-12 11:06:58 +0000 UTCWhy is it now when I see "holy crap" I hear your actual voice in my head saying it?! 🤣

2023-10-12 10:37:30 +0000 UTCHow anyone could confuse this movie with Eight Legged Freaks is beyond me. I’ve got a True Spider in Bed Story I’ll mention later.

2023-10-12 10:30:50 +0000 UTCWell now you have to watch the fly since you called it out

2023-10-12 10:19:56 +0000 UTCThat was fun. ;) John Goodman's character always reminded me of my dad who owned an exterminating company near St. Louis for 50 years.
Kevin Townsend
2023-10-12 09:50:09 +0000 UTCCassie, you survived!!! 🫡 Okay, “Delbert McClintock!” I was hoping he brought a few moments of levity to you and he did! Look, I have no proof but I am almost sure John Goodman named the character himself for fun. The name “McClintock” sounds like an old western, gunslinger that takes on the job of Sheriff to save a local town from bandits. But his first name is “Delbert” (no offense to anyone named Delbert) brings that classic cowboy toughness down a few notches to an endearing level of collecting beer cans and taking the extermination of spiders so personally. LOL. My neighbor’s dog heard you scream! This was a good one!

2023-10-12 09:41:02 +0000 UTC“We have to burn the barn…we have to burn the town” 😂 And of course…thank you so much, Ben. That was awesome! Probably this year’s award winner for best jump scare 😅 Sorry, Cassie, but holy crap that was hilarious 🤣

2023-10-12 09:34:30 +0000 UTCFun fact I remember reading in USA Today back when Arachnophobia first came out: The "General" spider in the movie was an actual spider, called a Goliath Bird Eating Spider. They are so named because they are large enough to, and occasionally do, eat birds.

2023-10-12 09:10:38 +0000 UTCNot sure if you remembered her, but the wife in this movie also played Rick Moranis’ character’s wife in “Parenthood.” On a separate note, during the movie my girlfriend said I made a sound that could only be described as a squeak. I really didn’t need her to witness that. My girlfriend now knows spiders make me squeak … no coming back from that. 😒

2023-10-12 09:00:56 +0000 UTCok, that was one tension release i think noone expected

2023-10-12 08:55:59 +0000 UTCDelbert is such a great character in this film. John Goodman steals every scene he’s in.
Tim Raths
2023-10-12 08:32:31 +0000 UTCYes, pretty please! Watch The Fly! Such a close vote, Cassie!
Philip Alan
2023-10-12 08:31:34 +0000 UTCTHANK. YOU. BEN!!! Hahahahaha!!!
Philip Alan
2023-10-12 08:03:42 +0000 UTCEnjoyed your reaction.....thanks for being brave, Cassie! I do believe that leaving Carly out of this one was the right call. I must admit, the part where your husband scared you made me laugh, in a guilty pleasure sort of way. Looking forward to all the stuff you have coming up for us!

2023-10-12 08:02:10 +0000 UTC"I think I might have done better with The Fly.” Absolutely, you would have. Give it a watch!

2023-10-12 07:15:39 +0000 UTCI think we may have scared her off The Fly.😫

2023-10-12 06:39:15 +0000 UTCCome on, mice??😂 Scarier then spiders and snakes?Remember Mr. Jangles in The Green Mile? He was adorable! Rats a little more so, but still, no comparison!!
Cole Jennett
2023-10-12 06:00:21 +0000 UTCYeah this is one of those movies I'm not ashamed to say that I'll be waiting until its light outside in the morning to watch it lol. I could not watch this at night time. I'm terrified by spiders, so this is also one of those movies that just downright put me on edge. Not many can pull that off, but playing on phobias will definitely do it

2023-10-12 05:53:11 +0000 UTCI elect not to watch scary movies if I have a say in it!
Randolph Tirazona
2023-10-12 05:51:21 +0000 UTCCan't wait to watch this reaction it is one of my childhood favorites. John Goodman cracks me up every time I see it
Ronny Boss
2023-10-12 05:48:52 +0000 UTCExcept for the jaws effect; making everyone afraid of spiders, this is a perfectly paced monster movie with just enough charm. Riding that line of absurdity and yet entertaining enough not to dwell on it
Wu Sha Ling
2023-10-12 05:48:50 +0000 UTCCan’t wait to watch! Between you, Jen Murray, Ashleigh Burton, VKunia/Nat Gold, TBR SCMIDT I’m watching this one a lot this year! 😄
Jason Pratt
2023-10-12 05:47:59 +0000 UTCI’m glad to hear it doesn’t seem to be sitting with you afterwards. That’s not what I expected.😊

2023-10-12 05:47:12 +0000 UTCHahahha I remember seeing this in the theater, it freaked me out a little too 😂
