This was one of the best horror/suspense movies I've ever seen, but come on - 4 weeks and they already go batshit nuts? Was it some sea sickness or something? Because I find it very implausible for the human psyche to snap out in such a short period of time. Maybe the everynight alcohol binges were one of the main factors to it, and probably Pattinson's remorse for the murder he had commited as well, but it is still somehow very unlikely such a thing to happen and eventually lead to the two's death.

>come on - 4 weeks
You dont actually know how long they have been there and they had been pretty insane before they even came there.
Joshua Scott
Was it 4 weeks? Or 4 months? Or 4 years?
Liam Gomez
it's partially inspired by a real story though
Ryder Edwards
The Lighthouse Keeper was already nuts to begin with, he jacked off to a blinding lantern every night ffs, which would've weirded Pattinson out to begin with. It was also implied that he was gaslighting Pattinson a little bit here and there. Also Pattinson was absolutely riddled with guilt and paranoid that the Keeper would do him in. Then he confessed and as the Keeper said, it did drive him mad since he was fearful for his life as well as hypnotized by the light.
That's the other thing, there was probably a supernatural element to the light. You can put the other strange goings on to hallucinations but the only illusion the pair shared was both were drawn to the light.

Why didn't the just count and mark the days that pass on a hand-made calendar or something?

Try sitting in a dark room doing nothing for an hour see how well you can take it.
Daniel Wright
He was too busy cooming.
Alexander Reed
Well, I've been doing this for years, so...
Jordan Hill
They did, they knew exactly when the ship should come. But it didn't, so they continued drinking.
And after a few days of being blackout drunk you are barely even able to operate a pen.
Aiden Diaz
And how long have we been on this board? 5 weeks? 2 days? 9 years? Help me recollect.
Cooper Bailey
your zoomer brain can barely even watch an entire film in it's entirety without checking something on the internet, let alone to literally do nothing alone in a room
Thomas Thomas
They were also drinking fucking lighter fluid which would've completely eroded both of their sanity.
Kevin Williams
I think that had ergotism (or whatever its called) from moldy rye bread. Imagine taking bad LSD with every meal for 4 weeks. You'd go crazy too my friend.
Parker Ramirez
Damn, why didn't I think of that?
Josiah Cook
Maybe you have never had LSD? It saved my life when I was younger and I've even spoken with police on it. That is why I now am a criminal justice practitioner actually!
Luke Cook
>This was one of the best horror/suspense movies I've ever seen
So you've only seen 50 movies total in your lifetime?
Aaron Gray
It is in no way a Horror, it is a Black Comedy
Blake Hill
Wait what, they both died?
Only the farting dude died.
James Bennett
Did you watch the whole movie to the end? The last scene is literally Pattinson's character gorged and devoured by seagulls with his intestines splattered and carved out, lying naked on a stone half-conscious in delirium. There is no way he could survived that, even if a ship came.
Nolan Lewis
Longest short movie i ever seen. But old guy asked to be killled. He bullied young lad whole time. Thomas did nothing wrong. It was self defence.
Bentley Sanchez
>zoomer
Why do some people keep bringing up zoomers for no reason?
Nicholas Evans
They ran out of food and had to drink alcohol to survive. They were shit faced all the time just to get calories. That would probably wreck your psyche after a couple weeks
Ayden Harris
What did you just say, cracka?
Michael Gutierrez
Because you spilled yer beans, zoomer
Jacob Bell
???
Thomas Clark
No ive only watched the funny clips.
Fart, hark yer beans and what not.

Can someone do an analysis on this kino scene?
Jonathan Murphy
[farts and inhales]

Bad luck to leave a toast unfinished, lad.
To establish dominance.

I hate horror films but loved the Lighthouse. I don't really consider it a horror film.
Christopher Morales
>proteus and prometheus
>future and past self
>lovecraftian
>neptune himself
>just two crazy guys
>two coomers locked up together
Which one was it?
Alexander Jones
I consider it farthouse cinema
Aiden Walker
Young buried Old yet in the next scene when Old attacked Young he had no dirt on him. What do you make of that?
Jacob Green
eye twas the biggest snub at the oscars. Not that little women feminist bilge.
Chase Ward

>closet homo battling his sexuality
Jack Jones
They've obviously been marooned for longer than four weeks. He talks about how a colleague had bee stranded for months, and later asks jack if he knows how long they've been in the lighthouse.
Luke Davis
Anyone would go crazy living in an isolated place with nothing to entertain yourself. I would've lost it after 3 days.
David Butler
I don't remember it this way. Young took keys from lighthouse tower from old corpse. There is not scene with old after that.
Aiden Davis
sigh...old comes back somehow

the Oscars have always been a joke. When they give the award to the actual best picture of the year it seems like just a random mistake.

Oh not this boring, "it was mental illness all along" reddit intellectual bollocks... same as The Witch or Blackcoat's Daughter then?
Jeremiah Johnson
It’s not horror, it’s a psychological thriller. There are no jump scares
Nicholas Hughes
You forgot
>gender swaped Persona with shit aspect ratio to look deeper that it actually is
Dylan Sanchez
YER FOND OF ME LOBSTER AINT YE
Lucas Richardson
After grabbing the keys from Dafoe in the grave, Pattinson goes up to the top of the lighthouse, then goes back to the shack (for his smokes, I think?) and Dafoe appears with the axe and hits Pattinson in the arm. Pattinson knocks him to the ground then plants the axe in Dafoe's head before climbing the lighthouse again for the final scene.
Ian Allen
Horror = jump scares?
Not really, bro
Dominic Flores
Eggers said in an interview that he felt The Witch got up its own ass at times, so he wanted his next movie to have some moments of levity. It's the reason for the comedy bits like the farts and "yer fond of me lobster" and shit.
Jeremiah Powell
Okay....have it your way...Sneed.
Jaxon Ramirez
Yup, that was well put
Dylan Davis
>surface tier reddit level analysis
>well put
Ryder Campbell
excellent bait my friend, i'll remember this one
Thomas Morgan
so this is the amount of self-awareness you need to make it in Hollywood... interesting.
Nolan Mitchell
No internet
Bentley Diaz
ok this thread made me watch the whole film. Its uhh nice.. glad to watch it...
Lucas Bell
btw so were they really at the lighthouse or was it in winslow's head?
Jason Mitchell
Yeah imagine what prolonged periods of isolation in a small cramped room must feel like who could endure such a life haha
Ryan Collins
he said it was well put, not that it was deep analysis, you sperg
Christian Nguyen
They didn't have nothing to do. They could and in fact had to do at least some of the following:
>work
>clean
>jerk off
>fart
>spill beans
>cook / eat lobster
>spar with gulls
>get drunk and dance
it wasn't like it was a sensory deprivation chamber or something
