Épisode 1 - Misery: Monsters Aren't Always Mysterious

1 novembre 2016

My Halloween gift to you. Support my work: https://paypal.me/AcolytesOfHorror I’ve read a lot of Stephen King’s books, but Misery is the one that my eyes burned through in less than 24 hours. The day went by in a white-knuckled blur as I carried the book from bed to armchair to kitchen table to toilet to armchair (etc) until I was slamming the back cover shut. Annie Wilkes terrified me in ways I’d never been scared before, because Annie Wilkes felt REAL. I’ve been obsessed with watching video essays ever since I got turned onto thenerdwriter1’s work, so this is my first stab at digging into that world. I've found an unexpected thrill in writing via editing. Trying to craft a narrative or argument with mostly outside sources wound up feeling surprisingly liberating. (Except for the part where I had to venture to the dark side of the internet and watch most of the Nightmare on Elm’s Street/Friday the 13th/Halloween/Texas Chainsaw Massacre kills to try to find footage that I thought fit with my aesthetic. I felt like I was trapped in an Antonin Artaud play.) * * * Nathan Wellman - Performer, Writer, Director, Editor (@LightningWOW) Phoebe Kuhlman - Hair Monster, Camera operator With special thanks to David Haverty and Devon Kenneth Lee for editing advice. Premiere Pro has proven to be a teasing vixen which confounds me at every turn. Sources: Ludwig Van Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata (Working with the best. Fo free.) Misery (1990) Silence of the Lambs (1991) Saw (2004) Pan's Labyrinth (2006) Halloween (1978) Nightmare on Elm's Street (1984) The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (1989) The Exorcist (1973) Happy Halloween, y'all

Épisode 2 - What REALLY Killed Vader (A Star Wars Fan Theory)

10 février 2017

Support my work: https://paypal.me/AcolytesOfHorror I always thought Vader's death was a bit... abrupt. So like any good Star Wars fan, I've concocted this elaborately-researched backstory that gives a deeper explanation to a question that George Lucas would almost certainly answer with "Lightning... duh." (As much as I love all the extra canon and EU/Legends stuff, this theory really only sources the movies; please don't Force choke me.) * * * Nathan Wellman - Editor, Narrator, Performer (@LightningWOW) David Miller - Camera Op, After Effects assistance Movies Used: Star Wars Episodes 1-6. They're not mine, I am theirs. Music: John Williams soundtracks from the aforementioned Star Wars movies.

Épisode 4 - PASSENGERS as a creepy stalker thriller

18 mai 2017

With thanks to the Nerdwriter for inspiring this vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gksxu-yeWcU Support my work: https://paypal.me/AcolytesOfHorror -I did kinda enjoy this movie tho. Great chemistry, interesting concept not based on a book/comic/true story/board game, and the coolest robot bartender ever. * * * Nathan Wellman - Editor, Music tweaker (@LightningWOW) All music from Passengers Soundtrack - except some synth stuff I added - I'm safe under parody law, yes?

Épisode 6 - Darren Aronofsky: Horror as Greek Tragedy

1 octobre 2019

Support my work: https://paypal.me/AcolytesOfHorror How Darren Aronofsky borrowed from the traditions of catharsis in Greek tragedy to create empathetic nightmares in Black Swan, Requiem for a Dream, and mother!

Épisode 7 - The Night of the Hunter - Victims of Faith

15 octobre 2019

Support my work: https://paypal.me/AcolytesOfHorror What do you do when the church you're supposed to be able to lean on is what's holding you under? Hollywood stories about victimized groups of people are often stories of empowerment, but a thriller from the 1950s tells a surprisingly faithful story about the feelings of helplessness that comes from being hunted by someone who's supposed to be helping you grow.
