I've recently gone back to my "Binge Analog Horror Until I Lose Track Of Reality" roots, so here's my thoughts about every single series I've seen that I can remember. Which could either mean I'm forgetting some or I've repressed them.
Marble Hornets = The classic of classics. If you've been on the internet in the 2010s, you'll immediately know what you're looking at.
Local58 = Sugar pills to prep you for bigger feasts. The videos are short but so captivating.
MISTER MANTICORE = 1-2-7-3, life is NOT marching on in Rockefeller street. At all.
ALEXKANSAS = Really goes hand-in-hand with MISTER MANTICORE, almost a package deal. You will never look at the weird architecture photos you see on Pinterest the same way again.
this place is not happy = If you get recommended videos of dead animals still moving after this, run.
The Volgun = You do not recognize the bodies in the water. You do not recognize the bodies in the water. You do not
The Walten Files = Modern classic, colorful and twisted. Also the character designs remind me of Raggedy Ann, so that's an extra point.
The Mandela Catalogues = After this you'll either need a change of trousers or to visit your local church. Both are a terrible idea.
Petscop = It's like watching your older siblings play the Wii when it's been your turn for over an hour, except you don't want to play anymore.
OmegaMart = O-O-O-OMEGA MART! I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S IN STORE FOR YOU!
Darian Quillnoy / Vita Carnis = Creating a world where you can mix the uncanny into general common knowledge is a skill in writing that I really look up to. Also I want a pet Trimming.
vintage eight = The sheer amount of commitment to the genre and amount of work is worth the night terrDRINK THE WATER! A MESSAGE FROM YOUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT!
gemini entertainment = If you put this on late night cable, the chances local kids will stay up watching again will lower EXPONENTIALLY!
wanted to see if i could chibify freedom, i just got back from a trip and wanted something to chill with but got too enthralled by the actual sculptures design sdklgj idt i understood what flesh freedom is supposed to look like orz
The footage of the statue playing after the Knight states he has evidence indicates he had involvement in the filming (though I don’t necessarily think he’s the one who filmed it due to the last shot of that scene)
Not quite sure how to articulate my specific thoughts on this but there’s parallels between the framing of the Knight wearing the skull of the Horned Serpent with the statement that the Horned Serpent still lives and the Knight wearing the head of Alice’s statue, claiming that she still lives
The Monuments Mythos is a surreal after-image of American mythology. It puts a mirror to America's subconscious storytelling. I don't think twisting your mind in knots for lore is the point. But, wow, is it fun.
"There might not be a real house in the ocean, and there might not even be any House in the Ocean videos. But isn't it remarkable that you understand what I'm referring to? The House truly is in your head. And the same way I haven't forgotten my dad when he passed, you haven't forgotten the House videos when they disappeared. Like him, you are a House in the Ocean."
So I have a hundred subs now on my youtube account...it's scary, like really scary...people there are prolly complaining why I don't have much content so I made a Monument Mythos animatic to ease my nerves.
warning tho, it's got eyestrain and blood
The Monument Mythos is such a great analog horror series, A friend of mine recommended it to me, and wowza. It manages to balance the feeling of absurdity and uneasiness just right which I've never seen much media do that.
And some of the episodes is made via movie maker it's amazing. Hahaha, y'all should really give it a watch.
The Tillon family is really interesting to me because it exists in all three universes, playing at least a slightly important role in all of them (finding the Delaware Double counts), the most important one being in the universe that isn't destroyed yet.
