Favorite things about Don’t Listen
(based on the discussion @themischievousronster and I had after watching the full music video)
The little bit of gameplay at the start
The animated Hameln logo!!
The FnF parody as a personal joke/reference to Jake’s channel and his content
We’ve seen the puppets some time ago but!! the fact the artstyle looks like Dora’s because that’s what Amanda was inspired by!!
The little details of Wooly’s ears (like the game) and Amanda’s puffs bouncing...
The animators from the game putting only the right amount of effort to make the important moments stand out, and team neutron also picking that up and only putting lipsync in the most intense parts of the song
!!! THE 3D MODELS !!!
The Pibby cameo 💀 again, the personal things!!
References not only to the finished game but also to the previous versions of the game
This is one of my fave things from the game and it’s how you can have a really intense scene abruptly ending and then the tape falls out in silence and it’s so chilling. And they put that right after Amanda is screaming and I’m happy they did that <3
Just. the song being a banger

Hi! I think you might be the one who made a Surge and Kit playlist on Spotify? I just noticed you had recently added "Don't Listen" by Jakeneutron to the list and I wanted to gush about it. Haha! I started clapping when I saw the song, actually. Found it a while back and I also really think it fits Surge and Kit. Namely the interactions between Amanda and Wooly.
But yeah I just wanted to let you know "Good choice, good choice!!!" /pos
Yes, I am the creator behind this Surge & Kit playlist!
I recently had a short-lived hyperfixation on Amanda The Adventurer, which resulted in me adding it to the playlist!
I absolutely agree that Don't Listen definitely suits Surge & Kit, especially throughout the events Imposter Syndrome as they try to break the code behind their existence. I also agree that there can parallels can be drawn between the dynamics of Amanda & Woolly and Surge & Kit.
If my Amanda The Adventurer hyperfixation had lasted longer, I likely would've gone through with a Surge & Kit AU idea I had gotten from Don't Listen that I named Digital Concious AU. Unfortunately, it won't likely see the light of day as I work on Project Big Wave.
Thank you for the compliment ask anon! Feel free to take a Treat and have a lovely day/night!
[ 🍬 Treat has been added to Anon's Inventory! ]

Webby Watches Horror: Don't Listen/Voces (2020)
Don't Listen, also called Voces in the original Spanish, is a movie about a family, a haunted house, and the importance of communication, especially when it comes to taking your children's concerns seriously.
This one's equal parts creepy and devastating, taking some tropes of the haunted house genre and making them feel familiar but freshly terrifying.
The poster doesn't tell you much, but trust me when I say that's a good thing. If you can go into this movie knowing as little as possible, absolutely do so. Which, naturally, absolutely means you should not continue reading this review.
Because, as always my dear beasties and ghouls, there are SPOILERS under the cut. Let's get to it!
Don't Listen opens up with an overhead shot of a filthy swimming pool, a red ball floating in its murky waters. We're introduced to this little family of three- Dani, his wife Sara, and their young son Eric, who is getting a visit from a therapist.
A lot of horror movies with children have trouble making the audience sympathetic towards them- The Babadook movie comes to mind as an example. Not so with this movie, however- Eric garners sympathy in the first few minutes he's on screen. Him looking up so hopeful at his therapist when she tells him there are other kids like him, only to be visibly disappointed when she clearly doesn't understand what he's going through.
Eric isn't struggling with the recent move to this new house- his parents are renovators and this isn't his first rodeo. What's different this time are the voices he hears, that demand he draw pictures and won't let him sleep at night. Just the worst kind of art commissions honestly.
His parents are your classic 'too busy with work to listen to my kid' but they're not the kind that piss me off. They try to spend time with him and obviously love him, but they're just Too Busy to really hear what he has to say. Which is tragically ironic considering the name of the movie.
The First Kill happens as Eric frantically draws it, his crayons flying across the page interspersed with the death happening in real time. We get some good Ecto-Electro-Communication in this movie, with the spirits talking to Eric through his walkie-talkie, his radio, and even his electronic toys; but they aren't restricted to just whispering static nothings. There's a VERY good sequence of a figure behind a plastic sheet in his room while he hides under the covers.
Side note- this movie may have the side effect of making you suspicious of common house flies for a while. Seeing one crawl into someone's ear and take over their body left quite the impact on me. (And the therapist.)
A lot of good horror is also incredibly tragic. Sometimes you watch a horror movie and you find yourself lamenting 'If Only, If Only'. If Only Eric's parents had listened to him when he told them he was scared and hearing voices. If Only they had taken him seriously when he went from loudly enthusiastic about the new place to lashing out at school and wishing they could move away.
One of the old rules of horror tended to be that you didn't kill the kids. (Yes, there's exceptions, don't @ me) Don't Listen ups the emotional tension by breaking that rule and not just for shock value. The second half of the movie is centered on the aftermath of Eric's death and how it affects his parents and the house.
One of the core themes of this movie is possession. Some of it is, of course, being possessed by spirits (via house flies. In the ear canal. Cannot stress enough how repulsive that is. It rules.) but also being possessed by your grief. Grief makes people desperate, which in turn can make them do things they might never have considered before, or behave in ways they would find appalling otherwise.
Dani's grief causes him to become single-mindedly focused on his son's spirit who contacts him through the walkie-talkie. In his grief, he does not stop to consider that this may not even be his son- despite evidence to the contrary and the advice of the expert he brings in to help. Sara's grief, meanwhile, makes her suspicious and aggressive, assuming the worst of her husband without bothering to listen to him explain.
The second half of the movie is where things get far more tense and atmospheric. The expert and his daughter/assistant give us an excellent 'Oh Shit It's Real' moment when she's monitoring the room via cameras/thermal detection/assorted ghost hunting gear and she tells him the presence they detected is right in front of him- but from his perspective, there's just an empty room.
Interestingly, the ghosts are shown to have a heat signature, unlike most media where they're depicted as having a negative effect on the temperature. The ghost expert's daughter even mistakes a ghost for Dani at one point, since she was viewing Eric's room through the thermo-filter thing. It's never really explained, but I think it has something to do with this particular ghost's overwhelming rage, which I'll touch on later.
The Showcase scene is beautifully sad and horrific. Expert sees his dead wife again for the first time, and it seems as though perhaps there are good spirits here, as well- until she's making him cut into his own arm so he can join her, and it's shown that the vision was all in his head and he's been cutting himself for real.
There's a lot of good background ghosts in this one, I had a lot of fun trying to spot them during the high tension scenes in particular. However much I enjoy playing Spot the Thing, though, one of the most nerve-wracking scenes To Me is when the mom is playing Peekaboo with the world's dirtiest ghost. I don't know about you but if I saw those nasty looking feet while peeking under the bed, there's no way in hell I'd be doing a TRIPLE TAKE.
The first time I was watching this movie, I actually paused it and pointed at the screen because, while looking in the background for more ghosts, I spotted a Whipstaff Manor playset! Now, the 1995 live action Casper movie is my very favorite movie, and when I started thinking about WHY that particular toy would be here, I realized that there's actually a lot of similarities between these two films.
Both movies deal with grief, with the loss of a child driving a parent to extremes. Both feature a father with a headstrong daughter, chasing literal ghosts in the hopes of one day making contact with their deceased wife. Both movies even have a hidden underground room! However, in this movie, the hidden room is also a Spanish Inquisition-era torture dungeon, complete with corpses.
Yeah, I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition (nobody ever does, so I hear). Part of me was laughing but the rest of me was horrified- when they tell you what happened, when they describe the way the woman was killed, you really understand why she came back as a ghost, and why she's so angry. Was she a witch? Possibly. She seemed to have a powerful voice.
The run up to the climax of the film is really good, making you question whether or not we're about to lose one of the three remaining characters, if we're going to witness yet another tragic death. The relief is almost tangible when they put an end to the witch's ghost and set her free- the evil is defeated (though, is she evil? Did she commit these acts as a spirit with intent or is she lashing out as a creature so consumed by her fury that it's all that's left of her?)
But Don't Listen has one final horror for us. As Dani visits his son's room one more time, he notices his son's artwork on the walls, possibly placed up there as a subtle cry for help. He sees crayon image after crayon image of the deaths and other events that happened well after the death of his son, and his realization that it was his own hands that took his son's life is one tragedy too many to bear.
We end the movie as we begin it- an overhead shot of the swimming pool, though the red ball is replaced by Dani's blood blossoming out into the water. As the credits roll, we hear the infernal buzzing of flies, which made my skin crawl just a bit, after having watched them crawl into ear canals multiple times in the past hour or so.
I did want to touch on the flies again, just for a moment. Usually flies are used in horror to symbolize the stench of decay, since movie scientists have, thankfully, not yet inflicted smell-o-vision upon us. When we hear the buzzing or see the erratic zig zagging of the insects, we instinctively know that something nearby is rotting, likely already dead. But in Voces, the buzzing of the flies is more of a harbinger, a herald of the death to come.
Spain wants me specifically to be scared shitless, I think. This makes the second movie I've reviewed that contains a concept that is terrifying to me personally and, were I to be unlucky enough to be in that situation, I would be incredibly dead so very, very fast. (If you have any more Spanish horror films to recommend, my inbox is always open!)
I gotta give this one 10/10 ghosts. It's tense, it's horrific, it has atmosphere for days, and a killer ending. (Not to mention the Whipstaff Manor thing. I am but a simple ghoul.) I really highly recommend watching this one, multiple times if you can handle it. There's so much more to notice on a second viewing! And try not to panic if you hear the buzzing of flies afterward. They're probably normal flies. Probably.

I hate how people will look at popular indie artists who had one or two songs go viral on TikTok and start making fun of anybody who listens to them. "Oh you listen to Lemon Demon, Will Wood, Jack Stauber, Glass Animals, and Mother Mother? Tsk, don't you know that is stupid TikTok neurodivergent white transmasc preteen music? It's so mid and bad you should listen to real music–" you are a pit of misery
#will wood#sp-rambles#For people wondering this is entirely about people being mean to the only music artist ever (Will Wood) on Twitter#Like obviously of course it's also about how people will degrade and twist jokes into being homophobic and ableist#by generalizing and making it out like people who listen to stuff they don't like are autistic and gay and whatever other slur applicable#Twitter is a cesspool though idk what's any different#Anywho still listen to Will Wood my beloved please please pleaseeee
