Hey Everybody! I have just released my new electronic album “Sub-Zero” which is heavily inspired by the movie Jacob's Ladder. If you're interested you can listen to the full album on my youtube channel, as well as download the album for free!
@TheNewFlare my moms a whore for having sex with my dad? ur retarded thts probably cuz of the crack your mom smoked when she was pregnant with you, you damn crack baby
@tektoniktek It's called an Inbox that sends you comment alerts, lamebrain. I check it only once a day or two, which is really only equivalent to 1/7 or 2/7 really, not 24/7. Or am I getting my math wrong? I don't know. I was never good with math.
@tektoniktek Oh c'mon! That's it? You know, I do wish that YouTubers these days would have the sense to do a proper job in keeping the YouTube Pointless Flame War spirit alive. What's the point of having YouTube anymore if annoying buggers like you are just going to tootle away from every humiliating insult that makes you mildly miserable?
Okay, maybe more than mildly - but hey, that's what being a man is all about.
@TheNewFlare omg yes im so miserable some guy on utube i dont evenno explained to me what a inbox is.... ur so cool one day i wish il be as cool as you are
@tektoniktek Now that's more like it. You're getting there, but you just need to work on the spelling and punctuation a little bit, or you'll just sound like you're butthurt.
I came here cuz this was The Rev's favorite movie and its what Avenged Sevenfold used to make their Nightmare music video (thats what they said in an interview) :D
guys the thing you have to understand is that this movie isnt a horror movie. its a psychological thriller. i agree some scenes in this movie are quite disturbing but this movie is more sad than disturbing. This is real life, people have gone through this during the Vietnam War. Troopers were put on this drug and the quite sad thing is that everything you thought you had was just an illusion
@JacobyloverPR lol i just commented about that too! and M.Shadows said they did their nightmare music vid from this movie. They did all the asylum scenes like that dude walkin on the cage like johnny christ did
this is based loosely on the LSD experientment that the US government did to some of its own soldiers. They gave them drugs like PCP and LSD without their conscent. MKULTRA...... This movie was out way before Silent Hill.
Jacobs Ladder is completely different than Silent Hill and if you watched the two back-to-back, I'm sure u'd come to the conclusion that SH is complete crap. U'd be right, too.
@knivesxout Definitely a religious movie. Some think the ending and the alternate ending could be Western and Eastern religious interpretations of how to cope with the expulsion from the Garden of Eden (symbolized by Gabe - the angelic guard of the paradise that was lost...)/ fall from grace respectively. Not too surprisingly, the screenwriter, Bruce Joel Coen, is Jewish but also practices Buddhism.
Best psych-horror movie of all time. Only Silent Hill and Philip Ridley's Heartless have recaptured some of the feel of this movie. Other recommendations would be much appreciated!
"Jacob's Ladder" remains an underrated masterpiece of the suspense/horror genre. A brilliant, unnerving, surreal and touching story...along with superb direction, cinematography and acting. subsequent great films such as "the 6th Sense" obviously took influence from Jacob's Ladder.
While watching The Avenged Sevenfold Making Of Nightmare where they said the video would be based off of Jacobs Ladder because it was Jimmy "the Rev" Sulivan the Drummer (and my Hero) Who Passed away a year ago favorite Movie so i looked it up and ive got to say Jimmy Had a good taste in horror movies. RIP Jimmy
@theangerfist Oh you're so right. You're well thought out comment totaly made me change my mind. I now see the error of my ways. Thank you angerfist. Thank you for being so articulant in your rebuttal.
This film is actually based on elements of truth. They gave soliders PCP as an experiment and the results was a complete blood bath. They turned on each other. Its a violent trip and the results just aren't worth it.
I came across this movie just now, because of being a fan of Silent Hill. The producers of the game said that they acknowledge this movie for its fear production in a more psychological way and also that they were inspired to make the games because of this movie. Of course that after reading such article I coudn´t keep on without watching this movie first :D
I've just watched this movie and it was...breathtaking.It's like nothing I've ever seen before.Such a mind-blowing storyline and brilliant acting!This is the kind of film leaves you up all night thinking...Psychotic,terrifying and heartbreakingly beautiful at the same time.Films like this actually had a fucking SOUL.Nowadays it's just about the looks.:/
This is by far one of the most frightening films ever made! The first 20 minutes alone are completely nerve-wracking. For me the finest horror films are psychological, making you believe there is something more gruesome and terrifying present than is already there and this really achieves that. It is too bad that it did not become the commercial hit it deserved to be. Hopefully, more people get a chance to watch it.
Also one of the most classic tunes of all time has vocals from this film in it. Check out a tune called lemonade raygun on stompin tunes records and see if you can spot the sample from jacobs ladder
@haveahorst i love them, i am currently playing the old classic ones. even though i have a ps3 im playing the very first silent hill for ps1 on my ps3 :P and they have this movie uploaded on youtube apparently. its a video response to this one, im going to start watching it now
THE most under-rated movie ever made.... this is head and shoulders above the drivel that the US usually pumps out ...
it can be done....Hollywood still takes a proverbial dump on the intelligence of its consumers (the expendables, surrogates etc etc) but every once in a while it delivers a gem like this.
kind of sucks since I already know the ending, saw a video with various movie spoilers. this essentially ends the same way as American Psycho, just different plot.
@Decigator No, it does not end at all like American Psycho. The final scene of American Psycho and the final scene of Jacob's Ladder amount to something entirely different. American Psycho is a great movie, but not nearly the same ending.
So is it me or does the synopsis for this movie on rottentomatoes give away the twist? I wanted to watch this flick but after reading that one sentence it seems like the plot is completely spoiled for me.
Great film, quite underrated. For fans who have made the jump to Blu-ray, this film (along with David Fincher's "Seven") will be released on Blu-ray on September 14, 2010.
I wouldn't say this is a horror film. It's more then that. It's about finding peace with yourself, and keeping a positive mind. When I first watched this movie, I was absorbed into it. I loved every moment of it. I felt every moment of it. The emotions are so real, they're so true...
@Truechuser deleted scenes, sadly. Apparently the audience they premiered it to said that the movie as a whole was too "extreme" or something to that effect, so he ended up removing alot.
wonder if m night digs this flikk. ill bet he took a couple of cues for sixth sense. also,see tony sopranos dream about his buddy pussy admitting he is working with feds; then finds out its true after dream. (see my award winning review of this movie below).
even the film critics didnt get it. no major publication of film reviews ive ever seen ever mentions the fact that he was dreaming it all. HE DIED IN NAM. he never came home. the demonic visions,etc., were a culmination of reaching the truth about what happened that day in nam.genius the way chemist enters his dream to explain it all.how do you write a screenplay for this storyline?! brilliant and underated.
@1skullduggery What I love about this movie is that it is such a kalidescope of memories and emotions that you can almost come up with a different interpretation of it every time you watch it - whether it be literal, psychological, mythological, religious, etc.
he died in nam. all the phantasmagoria is going on in his head before he actually dies. he needs to come to grips with why his platoon bud knifes him. he meets the chemist who sets him free by explaining ladder. he can now die at peace. (if youre afraid of dieing,etc, quote from louie). he can now ascend to heaven with his already dead son. the crux of the story though, is all taking place in his mind. great concept! how do you come up with a storyline like this? underated and misunderstood film
I don't think they were demons in a biblical or religious way. Due to the tails they have, I would say inter-dimensional reptilian beings not being able to be seen in this range of frequency.

Great film, quite underrated. For fans who have made the jump to Blu-ray, this film (along with David Fincher's "Seven") will be released on Blu-ray on September 14, 2010.

Watch the movie or send me a personal message. I don't want to spoil it for the rest of the people on here. They'll get angry. Lol.

I wouldn't say this is a horror film. It's more then that. It's about finding peace with yourself, and keeping a positive mind. When I first watched this movie, I was absorbed into it. I loved every moment of it. I felt every moment of it. The emotions are so real, they're so true...

Some scenes arent in the version Ive watched, like the chemist saying he can block the ladder

@Truechuser deleted scenes, sadly. Apparently the audience they premiered it to said that the movie as a whole was too "extreme" or something to that effect, so he ended up removing alot.

wonder if m night digs this flikk. ill bet he took a couple of cues for sixth sense. also,see tony sopranos dream about his buddy pussy admitting he is working with feds; then finds out its true after dream. (see my award winning review of this movie below).

even the film critics didnt get it. no major publication of film reviews ive ever seen ever mentions the fact that he was dreaming it all. HE DIED IN NAM. he never came home. the demonic visions,etc., were a culmination of reaching the truth about what happened that day in nam.genius the way chemist enters his dream to explain it all.how do you write a screenplay for this storyline?! brilliant and underated.

@1skullduggery What I love about this movie is that it is such a kalidescope of memories and emotions that you can almost come up with a different interpretation of it every time you watch it - whether it be literal, psychological, mythological, religious, etc.

he died in nam. all the phantasmagoria is going on in his head before he actually dies. he needs to come to grips with why his platoon bud knifes him. he meets the chemist who sets him free by explaining ladder. he can now die at peace. (if youre afraid of dieing,etc, quote from louie). he can now ascend to heaven with his already dead son. the crux of the story though, is all taking place in his mind. great concept! how do you come up with a storyline like this? underated and misunderstood film

"According to this, you're already dead" Wow that was a bit scary lol but i love lines like that

I don't think they were demons in a biblical or religious way. Due to the tails they have, I would say inter-dimensional reptilian beings not being able to be seen in this range of frequency.

scariest part was at the end where you see all the mental patients and they're like clawing at the chain link cells they're in.
