Good morning what are the movies or tv shows that traumatized you as a kid mine are the BBC production of A Christmas Carol and a handful of David Suchet Poirot episodes
#my dad always thought if something was well done it was appropriate for children
#so we never watched the silly little kid version of things. The muppet Christmas Carol? My dad would N E V E R
#anyway a Christmas Carol ruined Christmas for me for YEARS
#i hated to think about it
#and poirot was just. traumatizing
#there’s one called murder on the links which involved a golf course at night which is one of the most terrifying locations I can imagine
#also there’s one called death in the clouds
#and poirot uncovers the murder because there are two spoons on the dead lady’s tray of airplane food
#and the way he says ‘he picks up a spoon giving him the task of a waiter to carry out’
#when explaining the murder at the end to this DAY sends chills up my spine
#I know this is very obvious but the thing about fear is that it isn’t about logic or reason but it is about revelation
#it’s like the flip side of moments of good and happy insight
#at least for me
#what terrifies me is a moment where some kind of evil is revealed in a blinding FLASH
#a motive or (I guess) a ghost
#and there is this presence of some malevolent entity underneath the reality of things
#and something about it being SEEN almost more than it existing
#is so scary. Like I.
#Poirot uncovering the murder and describing it with such studied fascinated careful attention
#pulling back the layers of a blind of one kind or another
#shakes me to. my. CORE.
#and it’s all so visual and instinctive. it’s one tiny little moment that doesn’t fit suddenly pulling back the curtain of reality
#with such terrifying abruptness
#makes me want to sit down and cry like a baby
#the knowledge of evil doesn’t scare me. as in it doesn’t elicit an emotional/physical reaction of fear
#but seeing it in embodied action. again. where it’s some tiny ordinary little detail suddenly ripping reality as you know it to shreds
#the surprise of it. the recalibration it demands
#I !!!!!!!!! Get so afraid
