Welcome Back Everyone.
Today I will recap a 2022 American horror film named Barbarian.
Before we start, it is a request to please like and comment on the video as it will help
us to grow our reach.
The film opens on a stormy night, and we see Tess Marshall arrives at an Airbnb that she
booked at 467 Barbary Street, but as she tries to check in, she cannot find the house key
or get in touch with whoever booked her.
Before she leaves, she sees a light turn on in the house, and she rings the bell.
A man named Keith Toshko answers, and he says he booked the house as well on HomeAway.
Since they cannot reach the bookers, Keith invites Tess to stay while they try to get
things sorted.
Tess tries to book a hotel online, but Keith comes there and tells her that there is a
huge convention in the town, so she will not be able to get a room tonight.
He says they can both stay here tonight and the next morning they will get things sorted.
Tess agrees to this, and after she gets freshened up, Keith invites her to share a bottle of
wine.
She asks him to go ahead, and Keith asks him what brings her to the town?
She explains that she is meeting with a documentary filmmaker named Catherine James for a job
interview.
Keith says he has seen her last film Blue Easy, about the makeshift brass band, despite
Tess thinking nobody else would have seen it.
They bond for a bit before going to bed.
Now During the night, Tess wakes up to the sound of screeching, and then she overhears
Keith gasping in his sleep, likely due to night terrors.
She goes to him and tries to wake him up, but ends up startling both of them.
She says her door was open and she hears him making noises, but Keith denies anything is
wrong.
She wakes up the next day, and while leaving for the interview, she finds a note on the
table.
and when she steps out of the house, she is surprised to see that all the other houses
surrounding the AirBnB seem abandoned and dilapidated.
She then meets Catherine at the restaurant.
Everything goes well until Tess mentions where she is staying, and Catherine tells her she
shouldn't be there.
Tess says she couldn't find a place anywhere else and has a roommate with her, to which
Catherine asks her to be careful.
She then leaves saying she will call her tomorrow.
Now When Tess returns to the house, a man named Andre runs after her and tells her to
get out of the house.
Tess gets spooked by this, and calls the police to send help, but they say they don't have
any available units at the moment.
She then goes to the washroom and calms herself down, and notices that there is no toilet
paper there.
Now while searching for the paper, she ends up going down toward the basement.
but when she is coming out, The door gets locked.
and she left her phone on the kitchen table.
She then finds a rope attached to the wall, and when she pulls it out, a secret entrance
to a tunnel opens up.
Despite some initial hesitance, she goes into the tunnel for a little bit, and comes across
a room with a bed, a camera, and a bloody handprint on the wall.
She runs back to the basement and suddenly someone knocks on the door, causing her to
freak out.
She sees Keith outside, so she gets him to help get her out.
Tess explains to Keith what she saw and says they need to get out of there.
Keith calms her down and tries to reassure her that there is nothing serious down there,
so he goes to check it out.
After a while, Tess goes looking for Keith, and as she walks down the staircase, the door
starts getting shut, but she stops it.
She then places a chair there, and when she comes back downstairs, She finds another door
and a staircase going further down.
She hears Keith screaming and calling for help.
Tess goes down the stairs and finds him in the tunnel, and he says someone else is down
here that thing bit him.
Now Before they can run, a horrifying naked humanoid monstrosity, “The Mother”, appears
and smashes Keith’s head until he is dead before she roars at Tess.
An undisclosed amount of time later, screenwriter AJ Gilbride is driving when he gets a call
from his colleagues.
They tell him he is being dropped from their latest project because a woman named megan
is alleging that AJ raped her.
He maintains his innocence, but even his accountant drops him from representation.
AJ later goes out of state to the house he is renting, which happens to also be the Barbary
house.
He arrives and finds Tess’s luggage in the room.
She calls bonnie and asks her if someone staying here at the moment?
to which she says they have not rented in out in a couple of weeks.
Now at night, he goes out with his friend, and all but outright he admits that he pressured
the woman into sex.
The next day, he goes to the basement and asks if somebody there, and only then he hears
a thud sound from downstairs.
He grabs a knife from the kitchen and a torch and goes into the basement to investigate.
He also finds that rope attached to the wall that opens the way to the secret room.
He comes back upstairs and searches can underground rooms be listed as square footage when selling
home.
He then goes back to the basement and starts measuring the room, and only then he finds
the stairs going further down.
He goes to that tunnel and starts measuring it as well, but only then he hears some voices
following which he goes to a room and sees a mother breast feeding a baby on a TV.
Suddenly someone pulls his measuring tape and he starts running in fear.
He then falls and his torch starts to flicker and he is then found and chased by The Mother
before he falls into a pit where Tess is being kept as well.
Jump back to sometime in the ’80s, when Barbary Street was full of residents.
A man named Frank, who lives in the same house comes out of the house, and goes to a store
to get baby products.
He then spots a young woman and follows her back to her house.
Frank dresses as a man from the electric company to get inside her house and unlock her bathroom
window.
He then leaves there and When he returns home, his neighbor Doug tells Frank that he and
his wife are selling their house.
Frank then goes inside his house where we hear a women screams.
Back in the present, Tess tells AJ to be quiet and calm down.
The Mother then lowers a baby bottle down into the pit, Tess asks him to drink it, but
he denies.
Tess then drinks from it, but AJ is less willing.
The Mother then jumps into the pit and treats Tess like her child, but she growls and screeches
toward AJ, and then she takes him away from there.
The mother then brings him to that room where she forces him to breastfeed off her.
Tess manage to climb out of the pit and begin to make their way out, but her foot gets on
the measuring tape, that alerts Mother, and she starts chasing Tess.
Tess manages to break the window to the basement and is pulled out by Andre before The Mother
can reach her.
Andre tries to take Tess to safety, but she insists on going back to free AJ.
She asks him to call the police, but he says don't have a phone.
Meanwhile, AJ has made his way into a room where he finds Frank, bedridden and close
to death.
Initially believing Frank to be another victim of the Mother, AJ assures Frank that the police
will come to investigate.
Here Tess reaches a gas station and call cops, but when they arrive, they believe that she
is a strung-out addict due to her disheveled appearance.
She convinces them to go back to the house with her, but since she has no proof that
there is any evidence of a crime, the cops leave.
Back to the basement, AJ sees several tapes that Frank has kept of the women he has raped
over the years.
As AJ calls him out for how sick he is, Frank pulls out a gun and shoots himself in the
head.
After which AJ grabs the gun and goes out of the room.
Tess waits until it gets dark to break into the house and get her keys.
When she gets into her car, The Mother emerges and tries to break into Tess’s car, but
she drives into the side of the house to try and kill The Mother, but it just briefly knocks
her out.
Tess goes down there and calls out to AJ, causing him to get startled and pull the trigger.
Tess is shot in the abdomen, but AJ helps her get out of the house.
When they get outside, Tess sees that The Mother is not where she originally was.
She tells AJ she knows where they can run to.
She brings AJ down by the water where Andre told her to go for safety.
Andre finds them and explains to them that Frank owned the house and was most likely
the source that booked the victims.
He would kidnap women and rape them, producing children that he would also rape, and The
Mother is a product of incestuous rape that has been in the house for over 40 years.
Although confident that she cannot find them, Andre is quickly proven wrong when The Mother
emerges and rips his arm off, then beats him to death with it.
Tess and AJ run for safety and make their way up a water tower.
AJ accidently drops the gun just as The Mother starts catching up to them.
He thinks he can redeem himself and save both of them, so he grabs Tess and throws her off
the tower, knowing The Mother will instinctively go after her “baby.”
He then runs down and sees The Mother seemingly dead.
Just as he tries to justify his actions to Tess, The Mother springs back up and gouges
his eyes out with her thumbs before cracking his head in two.
The Mother then crawls over to nurture Tess, who grabs the gun.
She has a slight look of remorse on her face before she pulls the trigger.
Tess then gets up and walks out of the area to get medical attention.
and the movie ends here.
