I wasnt expecting The Crooked Man to be good, but I wasnt expecting it to be this rough so fast.

Finally got around to watching I saw the tv glow and I’ve had an incomprehensible sense of dread ever since 🙂‍↕️

what’s a bad miracle?

The way that the alien in Nope's final form looks like an old studio camera. The way the opening credits take place inside its stomach, shown as an endless darkness framed by billowing sheets - the blanket-like hood of an old camera that the photographer hides under. The way Jupe calls the alien The Viewer. The way Jupe makes stuffed animals of what he imagines the aliens inside the "ship" to look like subconsciously reference the camera magazines on the set of Gordy's Home with the body of a monkey. The way that Jupe was only saved because the table cloth kept him from looking Gordy in the eyes. The way that OJ and Em signal "I see you" before the final showdown. The violence of attention. The all-seeing eye. The panopticon. The camera obscura. The dark chamber. The spectacle.

19 - The Sun:

The card suggests optimism and abundance, indicating that success seems inevitable. The Sun brings energy to accomplish, filling us with confidence and illuminating our path. Any situation, even schemes carried out by criminals exploiting terminal cancer patients, can be overcome and resolved.

Weapons did not disappoint

I think that horror, probably more than any other genre, has people who just hate it as a matter of principle. Which is fine, you like what you like, but I really wish they didn't let such people review horror for media outlets.

You're about to close on your very own, suspiciously affordable and comfortable house. Just before you sign the contract, the realtor shows you the required legal disclosure: your new house is haunted by the type of presence you'll get from this spinner wheel.

Of course it is.

Are you still buying the house?

🥳 Yes! Are you kidding?!!! Now I'm buying the house BECAUSE of the ghost!!!!!

😊 Yes. I'm happy to have found this house, and the ghost is a nice addition.

😶 Yes, but the ghost doesn't play into my decision at all.

😒 Yes... I guess. I'm not happy, but I'm not passing up an affordable house.

❌ No. I've found my limit, and this ghost is past it.

“I think there’s a rich ream of horror, from The Haunting of Hill House to Ghostwatch, that delves into the idea that certain places can simply go wrong – and once these bad environments have been established and ostracised by society, they can’t be exorcised. They simply keep accruing power through the individual stories that play tragically out in their shadow.

“I mention a real-life example of that kind of bad architecture in one episode; the Pope Lick Bridge in Kentucky, a place that looks and feels so sinister that it developed its own local folklore about a goat-man who attacks people who stray too close to the edge – and which has ended up resulting in deaths as visitors peer over the side trying to get a peek at the monster.

“I find this kind of stuff fascinating, because it plays into my own paranoia about environments, and my dislike of ghost stories with explicably human antagonists. Like David says in the first episode, people aren’t frightening. Places are frightening.

“If I’m sitting alone at home on a dark and stormy night, and I glance nervously up towards the bedroom doorway, my fear is not that my house is being haunted by a spirit called Mabel who died in the 19th century at the age of fourteen and is constantly seeking her favourite teddy bear… because all of these details both humanise her and make her ridiculous.

“My fear is that there will be something standing in the doorway, because the doorway is where things come to stand.

“Because unoccupied spaces, in our imaginations, must find something to fill them.”

— Jon Ware, from “The Saturday Interview: ‘I Am in Eskew’ podcast”
