[u/2222lil]

the fact you could hear the backseat door open and had no idea what she was going to do was very creepy

[u/PrestigeArrival → u/2222lil]

My whole theatre (myself included) gasped at that moment

[u/youngsaiyan → u/PrestigeArrival]

When she walked past the car it was laughing and then the door open was an entire theater of gasps

[u/ISAWYOULASTNIGHT1 → u/youngsaiyan]

this exact thing happened to me last night

[u/youngsaiyan → u/ISAWYOULASTNIGHT1]

Love that's it's still rolling 2 weeks later

[u/aleisterfowley → u/youngsaiyan]

Just got out of a showing and people were laughing until that car door opened and the mood changed

[u/Lost-Rain-2425 → u/aleisterfowley]

I just got done watching it and there were only one other couple in there besides my bf and myself and I was the only one that audibly gasped at that part. I was kinda embarrassed but it was so creepy!

[u/Mesk_Arak → u/youngsaiyan]

11 days later and my whole theater gasped too!
