About:
This is a short film, so anything mentioned here will just destroy a great experience. The Strange Thing About the Johnsons takes everything you conventionally know about certain situations and flips each moment so wildly on its head, you might even laugh at the power of its irony.
Genres: Short Film, Gay, Old-Young, Domestic Abuse, Family, Incest, Rape-Sexual-Violence against Men
sequel is better – strange thing about my johnson
Love this movie ty for uploading it
This one is effed up for sure.
This one is amazing: acting, atmosphere, etc. Saw it on YouTube twice because it was that good. Glad it’s on the site.
Gutsy Mother of a film.
Great little flick, and it has an important message for women: start licking your husband’s balls before your son does it for you.
Wow!! Never seen this one. Ari Aster’s films are so perfectly effed up.
Excellent.. part of the trilogy series I recall.. portraits of American families which included the world famous UG short.. the mighty Cutting Moments… This is slicker of course and just as terrifying… Another fine slice of societies underbelly and a damcfine short .
.This just broke me down to tears. I relate so closely to this situation. This was crazy and hard to swallow when seeing, but at the same time there are life lessons here & also situations that show that those who go through abuse are not alone. It’s so weird to see that in this situation it was the adult who had this horrible feeling so just imagine the children, how them being smaller makes it difficult to fight someone bigger & the physical pain is so excruciating that unless you went through it you won’t know how horrible awful you feel afterwards. This world is crazy & just like an Anaconda, they would eat you alive with out you even not even noticing!¡!¡!¡!¡!¡
Usually, it’s the older one who does the abuse to a child, but it’s the other way around this time. If this indeed happened in reality, how can the victim call for help? Especially if there’s a family secret that shouldn’t be known to the world?
5/5!
Ffs, the son don’t even live there anymore. But just waltz downstairs with your confession without first checking, on New years day, one of the few times he is likely to be there, dumb old fuckdoll
good movie
No stop what no NO NO NO ONONON ONONO NNONO ONONONONOO
A dark comedy piece of fucked up shit. 3/5. It’s short, worth watching. Definitely deserve the seal of effedupmovie
Great little flick. Fitting ending where the mother offs that loser.
This short movie is amazing! I really wish it could’ve lasted longer the acting could use a little work but still heart wrenching and stomach twisting
Have you ever just sat and stared at someone, desiring to punch them in the face or blow their stupid head off all the while smiling maniacally?
I can’t comprehend how witnessing such devastation encourages someone to turn a blind eye. My own family is dysfunctional and when I became an adult I legally emancipated myself from all of them, but not once did I experience sexual abuse or defective subjectivity such as this.
Is that a keloid on/behind the son’s left ear? It’s a growth abnormality of some form
lol what the fuuck
You little crybaby faggots think you can make fun of me? You’re trolling is weak,get a life you pre-teen assholes all you do is whine & spam,your jokes are pathetic so listen & listen very carefully you 12 year old jerk off’s,you are not welcome here,you’re not clever or funny
Am I crying from lunacy or repulsion? Literally crying with laughter at this cuckold dross trolling
spoilers over here! go watch it first!
“I loved him better than you ever did”???? and the other things he said earlier,,, go gaslight king yas!
yes the plotline is something i would easily see in a manga by Harada, except the ending. that was very girlboss of Ms. Johnson, go qween. i would have expected it to end with hmm the mom hangin’ herself and young Johnson going on with his sick plan, but i guess the father had another plan. i guess that happening let Ms. Johnson have a bit of space to evolve her character, cuz before that she was very passive.
Most effed up thing I have ever seen. I loved it.
Wonderful little short film, it was a perfect portrayal of gaslighting and just such a terrible family dynamic. The whole thing was unnerving and I enjoyed it immensely!
