As much as I love the expansion of the content on your channel, I do hope you will return to some of the truly scary horror movies that you have yet to see and the franchises you have started.

In October 1941, professional daredevil George Hopkins successfully parachuted onto the summit of Devils Tower for a $50 bet, only to become stranded for six days because his equipment pack bounced off the edge and no safe descent plan existed.

You were right on the score. It's another John Williams classic.

Hey Kat! The scene, in the house, where the kid (Cute!!!) gets taken through the dog flap? (Where's the dog!?! Did the "husband" take the dog?) That is a horror scene!!! Omg, I love that scene. Rewatching it, so many times, and picking it apart, little practical effects, lighting & camera work, this scene is a master class at doing a lot with very little. I'm so very curious, when you watch a performance, do you ever like, catalog something for yourself? Like, "I should try that next time..." Or, is that not how acting works 🤣. Anyway! Always loved this movie, saw it in theaters when it released, only after I had my first kiddo did I look at Roy kind of... Askew? Like, dude, be better. We sure can be harsh on this side of the screen, no? #LuvYaMeanIt

Great reaction, Kat! And E.T. was 5 years after this, FYI. From Hynek, Close Encounters of the first kind is a UFO sighting. Second kind is physical evidence. And third kind is actual contact (within 500 feet). The scenes of Roy going crazy are hard to watch, and this was the director's cut, so there are more of them -- I honestly prefer the theatrical version with less of the trauma on the family and kids -- we don't get the bathtub scene, etc. I also think Roy actually throwing the trash in his kitchen (and taking the fencing from the poor ducks!) was over the top. I get that he was dealing with an obsession/psychic message, but nobody else appeared to destroy their houses or traumatize their kids. And I was irritated he took the pet duck fencing when there was plenty of chicken wire all around that wasn't penning in the animals. (sorry, just a nitpick) As an interesting side note, Spielberg has said that he would have handled that stuff differently after he became a parent. He also said that Roy would not have necessarily left his family at the end, either. I agree that Roy leaving his family hits in a different way nowadays. At the time (I was a kid), I just felt like he had to go, that it was a bigger vision and mission. But now of course I'm wondering about his poor wife and kids. And speaking of which, his wife was pretty wonderful -- she really tried to be understanding -- even as he's losing it, she's talking about getting therapy, which is kind of awesome. I was definitely rooting for her to leave by the time she did. The John Williams score is absolutely iconic, and I was obsessed as a kid. It and his score for Star Wars helped to inspire my lifetime love of film music. (I used to wait by the radio for the song to come on, to record it with my little tape deck!)
