In 1957, the first messages encouraging moviegoers
to buy Coca-Cola and popcorn were spliced
into movie theatre film strips, and audiences
did just that. The age of subliminal messaging
in entertainment was born, and has been used
as a running gag in movies like Fight Club,
or as a genuine attempt to influence audiences
without them realizing it. Here are Screen
Rant's Shocking Subliminal Messages Hidden
In Popular Movies. Oh! Make sure you keep
your eyes opened for our own subliminal message
in this video!
Cloverfield
Did you know that Cloverfield contains a King
Kong cameo? J.J. Abrams' found footage monster
movie is well known for its shaky, stuttering
handheld camcorder, and in between cuts and
flickers the director inserted single frames
from classic monster movies like King Kong,
The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms and Them! Whether
they were put there to disturb the audience
without them realizing it, or just as an homage
to the kind of movies that inspired Cloverfield,
these flashes are a fun subliminal secret
that can only be seen if you slow the scenes
down.
The Ring
Gore Verbinski's remake of this Japanese horror
film takes the idea that watching movies affects
us, and stretches it to a terrifying extreme.
The meta concept is reinforced when single
frames from the haunted videotape flash up
during other scenes in the movie. Again, not
all copies of the film feature the same frames.
But fans can all catch a flash of the Ring
at the very start of the movie, where it meshes
with the crescent moon in the DreamWorks logo
and later when the boat scene ends. These
hidden frames are worth re-watching the movie
all on their own - just don't answer the phone
when you’re finished.
Irreversible
Subliminal messaging isn't always about advertising.
Some filmmakers use it to try and create a
certain emotional effect in their audience,
without them consciously knowing why they
felt that way. The first thirty minutes of
Gaspar Noé’s film Irreversible contains
an extremely low frequency background noise
that is virtually inaudible to humans, but
capable of causing uneasiness and nausea.
Noé deliberately inserted the noise into
his soundtrack to make people feel sensations
of disgust while watching his movie. But trust
us - it's far from the only disturbing part
of the movie.
The Exorcist
William Friedkin's tale of demonic possession
is widely recognized as one of the most terrifying
horror movies ever made, and its use of subliminal
imagery only makes it more unsettling. The
demon Pazuzu - nicknamed 'Captain Howdy' by
Regan - can be seen in a few frames scattered
throughout the movie, but its appearances
go by so fast that some audience members may
never even be aware that they saw them. For
those who did manage to spot the pale-faced
Pazuzu, the fact that the demon's horrifying
face is only visible for a fraction of a second
is far more frightening than a drawn-out close-up.
The Rescuers
There have been countless examples of people
finding sexual imagery hidden in the frames
of Disney movies, and not every one of them
is convincing. But one film that definitely
has a sexy subliminal secret is 1977’s The
Rescuers. The animated adventure about two
mice on a quest to find a kidnapped girl has
a not-so-innocent image inserted during a
sequence where Bianca and Bernard are flying
on the back of Orville the albatross. A topless
woman was superimposed onto two of the windows
flying past during the movie's post-production.
This discovery of the image in 1999 led to
Disney issuing a recall of 3.4 million home
release copies of The Rescuers - but thanks
to the internet, it's still easy to find the
clip.
Psycho
Psycho is full of smaller details that make
it worth watching the movie over and over
again - including a brief cameo from Hitchcock
himself. During one of the final shots of
the movie, as Norman Bates is sat in the police
station after being arrested, Hitchcock subtly
superimposed the image of Mrs Bates' mummified
skull onto actor Anthony Perkins' face. To
make things even creepier, not all of the
theatrical prints of the movie included this
detail, so audiences in the 1960s could spot
the skull in one screening and then find it
gone in another - leaving them to wonder if
they'd ever really seen it at all…
