Zoomer bros...
It's like King said horror is just a reflection of society so if people are scared of rooms and girlfriends now then that is where society is at
>>221250787Zoomers are cringe. Who knew.
2026 real life is more horrifying than any movie
>>221250787OMG IS THAT AN EMPTY ROOM? AAAAAAAA
>>221250787>boomers were scared of clowns and burn victimsNice self own, OP.
>>221250787The guy was the monster in Obesssion
>>221250787Top is retarded slop for coddled manchildren.Bottom is profound and requires a much deeper understanding of the human psyche.
>>221250787Change "a guy's girlfriend" to "average White guy" and then it'll be accurate.
>scared of roomsWhy do people miss the point of backrooms that hard?
>>221250838the popciorn
>>221250898The original 4chan post is about a guy who noclips everywhere and is only scared of the backrooms. So it's more about the 4chan post than the movie.
>>221250801It's more like Liminal Spaces depend on intrusive horror thoughts that people in the 80's would consider unworthy of making a film about.Take for example, when you're a child out with your parents while they antique and you see an old creepy oriental mask or something. It would be a scary memory as a kid but silly as an adult. A normal writer with such an experience may implement a horrific mask into a greater story, but he'd never indulge some simplistic childish nightmare about the mask just chasing him around.Kane Parsons seems to focus on that element, especially in his short film "The Rolling Giant". Literally "That art piece looks creepy, what if you were in a liminal version of this mall and it chased you around!"It's the pure indulgence of irrational horror, ignoring all expectations of previous horror films to follow classic monster movie tropes.No we aren't going to turn the antique Chinese mask into some story about an ancient Chinese wizard who enchanted the mask so he could steal blood from virgin teenagers. The mask will just straight up hover around in a liminal space with no explanation just like your childhood self imagined.There are only a few films that really capture this from past. Poltergeist with the Clown and Tree especially, and House(the Japanese one).
>>221250838But he was the Bear?
>>221250927>but he'd never indulge some simplistic childish nightmare about the mask just chasing him around.
>>221250917The original 4chan post already implies there's some sort of entity in there.
>>221250998Yeah, but he's constantly noclipping. None of that in the movie. It's a very retarded post
>>221250787Millenials were like>i-is that a ROOM???? AAAAAAAAAHHHH I'M GOING INSANE>>221250898anything to hate them damn kids these days
>>221250927Very good analysis
>>221250787the goofy monster killing people for the lols gets old after a while, and they still make that kind of slop anyway like Art the clown or the monkey in The Monkey
>Slender Man>TerrifierMillennials are winning
>>221250898See >>221251042They're purposely missing the point just to repeat their own headcanon about how a generation is pathetic and lame. It's all fart smelling losers thinking they're philosophers who solve a great question.
>>221250838I don't get it
>>221250787Old horror monsters reflected the real life horrors of the time, which were mostly old white men running around being serial killers. The horrors plaguing society today can't be used as the basis of horror films because everyone would call you racist or a chud.
>>221250838That's what the movie is about? Didn't Fairly Odd Parents already do that plot?
>>221250838This shit is supposed to be funny?
>>221250898Because the original "point" was retarded and uninteresting as well. >WOAAAAAHHHH BRO WHAT IF YOU GLITCHED OUT OF THE FLOOR LIKE IN A VIDEO GAME BUT... IN REAL LIFE??? AND WHAT IF YOU WENT TO A ROOM BUT... YOU LE COULDN'T GET OUT????? It's such a dull, uncreative and uninspired concept. I don't get how normalfags ever thought it was an interesting idea to begin with. >>221251170>>221251042No, you pathetic and retarded zoomer. See above. Fuck, you're all so braindead.
Geriatrics don't understand Backrooms because they grew up in petting zoo world, free of liminality.
>>221251321>zoomer doomer gooner loser>continues to pretend that an infinite and poorly structured copy of reality that you can randomly enter isn't scary.Comment discarded
>>221250787The incel was the horror icon in Obsession. And rightfully so, incels are society's greatest threat and need to be raped and killed.
>>221250787Obsession isn’t so much a horror movie as it is an insightful commentary on the incel mind.
>>221251321>I AM SILLY!Great criticism there, bud.
>boomers were scared of this
>>221251354>if I try to describe this very simple and boring concept by using more complicated words that don't actually mean anything, I might make it sound more interesting Thanks for proving my point on how much of a pretentious moron you are.
>>221251187>The horrors plaguing society today can't be used as the basis of horror films because everyone would call you racist or a chud.Getting almost beheaded on the street by a foreigner is liminal. Current day Western societies are liminal.
>>221251354Yeah, I agree with the other anon.>infinite>poorly structured copy of realityThose words don't actually mean anything and don't make the backrooms any "scarier". You really sound like a pretentious retard, like those faggots who pretend that they're deeply into Blood Meridian when they've only watched that 3 hour documentary from the Wendifaggot.
>>221251418If the words that I used sound complicated to you, then that shows how retarded you are.
>>221251481No, I said "more complicated", you retard. As in you're trying to use more elaborated terms that don't actually do anything to make this shitty concept sound more compelling. You're also a moron who lacks reading comprehension.
>>221251465>Those words don't actually mean anything and don't make the backrooms any "scarier". I was literally describing the backrooms. Infinite and a poor copy is exactly what it is. Unlike the original picture that only described the old horror icons.
>>221250801What is nightmare on elm street adverting to in terms of societal fears? Burn victims?
>>221251516>I was literally describing the backroomsAnd that still doesn't make them any scarier. Because overall they still boil down to just being empty hallrooms with grandma's wallpapers that just don't have an exit. It's the equivalent of being locked in an empty room by someone and waiting to starve to death, except the latter can actually happen to someone irl so it's actually scarier. How are you too retarded to comprehend that?
>>221251537uhh not exactly, think about it a little bit you'll get it
>>221251537diddlers
>>221250787>gay clown>pedo freddy (also looks like a gay clown)You coulda went with Leather Face or the Maniac baka The Shining also had a really terrifying villain (psycho dad)
>>221250927Christ you're a pathetic and pretentious fucking retard. >>221251045And you're a samefag too, lmao. Kill yourself.
>>221251537vengeance for old deeds
I don't think pennywise is very iconic stephen king blows and clowns are gay and tacky not scary>>221251558In 2019 I didn't see any capeshit and I read at least one book give me a cookie or at least praise me with virtual headpats pls
>>221251576I never saw those movies... wasn't freddy a pedo who they killed for diddling? Why does he get to come back and do evil shouldn't he be gettin' raped by the devil in h*ck? Forgive me if this is not even close to accurate.
>>221251561>except the latter can actually happen to someone irl so it's actually scarierThis nigger might be autistic.
>>221250787Art the clown is a thing (unfortunately)Also I could reverse this to be like>old horror icons:>teen girl at prom>a dog>dad>a babydoll>a crazy cat lady>old house>birds
>>221251602I know someone else already said this but you really sound like an insufferable and retarded zoomer trying to sound quirky.
>>221251611No one said that to me. You're confusing me with another super duper cool anon.
>>221251109my friend convinced me to watch the terrifier movies and they are the worst fucking pointless shit that I've ever seenfor being made by an effects guy they only even have 1 good effect in the entire trilogy (the black guy taking a cleaver to the head in the first one)
>>221251641*second one
>>221250787freddy krueger is already complete fucking zoomer bullshit those movies are garbage and the terrifier/joker type faggot loves them
>>221251593gj on reading at least one book, anon. i hope it was a real book and not a manga or something.
>>221251565What does Sean Combs have to do with this
>>221251641terrifier is like wacky campy happy time gore porn for wide open basedmouths who are on ssris or something? It was confusing to me... >>221251673ty fren I read big boy books like whipping star by frank herbert
>>221251564Child murderers are like the number one or two universal fear though society in any era. That’s like saying disease is a societal fear
>>221250787Thanks to Covid and social media, thebottom two are more real terrors.
>>221251573And the stupid nigger award goes to...
>>221251721It is though they make horror movies about that too
>>221250787Zoomers are scared of empty rooms and girls.
>>221251741They do?
>>221251765I seen't it
>>221250927Great post, but you’ve convinced me that we should subtract movies down to their most elemental forms. I now want a first person found footage (from a go pro) horror film of an individual trapped in a MYSTlike being chased by a low poly Chinese mask. Him and the mask are the only two things that move. I demand this kino, and hereby release my rights to it. Release it, and I’ll even pay for the privilege of seeing my own idea filmed. That’s right, I’m a filthy little pay pig! You know what, this post has veered off course by a few degrees.
>>221251765I enjoyed The Stand (90s one)
>>221251790hey is everything okay
>>221250898If the simulation theory is correct, the existence of the Backrooms becomes plausible as a glitched-out version of our simulated world.
>>221251410Do you know how dangerous those sharp corners are to pedestrians? There's a reason we don't get cool shit like pop up headlights anymore.
>>221250838No... fricking... way... bros... lowkey sad that more people dont realize this
>>221251721>>221251565>>221251602Nightmare on Elmstreet, despite being a franchise about a supernatural child murderer, distances itself significantly from the idea that Freddy Kruger is a pedophile.Like there isn't even the slightest implication of molestation which shows like L&O SVU are allowed to suggest.It's just "I had a rough childhood, I'm the son of some random mentally ill man from a psych ward and I'm married to a woman and have a daughter but OMG the urge to Killoooom!" [Cuts to random little girl he kidnaps and hides in the steel mill her works at planning i just butcher her with the finger knives.]Was Wes being a pussy? Probably; but maybe he shouldn't have tried to make a charismatic, punch-liney villain with a cool power concept suggestive of being a pedo to begin with. Hell, there was ample time for a plot twist that he was falsely accused the entire time.
>>221251833but if you want a F350 with a 10 inch lift and monster truck tires pulling 3 trailers you're good pedestrians will feel nothing neither will miatasbut sports cars have to loook like fat fuckin clown shoes now fml
>>221250787>old horror icons: immigrant stand ins (ugly people who are out to get you)>new horror icons: jobs and relationships
>>221251821you have to go back
>>221251860yeah, "child serial killer" but he didn't rape em' good one hollywood kek gotta distance themselves from the rape part but murder is ightI never liked the premise of horror movies where some lame criminal gets to come back from the dead with evil powers (except childs play cuz it's hilarious with the twist that he comes back as a gay fucking doll and is pissed about it) or when a good or neutral person is murdered so they come back as a vengeful spirit to just fuck up and murder random innocent people...freddy and jason never appealed to me mostly because the people who raved about that shit were comic book nerds
>>221251875>>old horror icons: immigrant stand ins (ugly people who are out to get you)>>new horror icons: jobs and relationships (ugly people who are out to get you)ftfy
>>221251876No.
>>221251860When was the lore that Freddy's mom was a nurse in a mental hospital who was raped by 100 psychopaths introduced?
>>221251896>Were comic book nerdsI hear you, The second Hellraiser is basically capeshit slop. The 80's-90s just wanted weird murderous/monstrous anti-heroes for people to glorify rather than actual horrific concepts, as evident by every Puppet Master after 4.>Aaah Save me Blade-sama, even though you slaughtered all those innocent people you are the only Puppet Master who defeat the eviler and more murderous TOTEM demons!>Child serial killer that didn't rapeYeah the removal of the sex part that is pivitol to IRL serial killers who basically dry hump women while they kill them until they cream their pants is absent in slasher films. Jason is just a retard listening to his mom who is just a roastie, Michel is just an anomaly or something. Where's the rape?>>221251929I wanna say the 4th but maybe the third?
>>221252001Candyman is awesome and mogs Hellraiser. I liked the first Hellraiser but it's a bit too much gay culture for me later in the series...
>>221250787>I will consume the movie as it is, and not lucid dream or induce hypnagogic half awake half asleep imaginations of myself in the setting of that movie later on by using various experimental methods of making myself insaneYour loss normie. The felt presence of some silly guy in a freddy suit or clown costume is not as scary, as thinking people are in your apartment fucking with you for real and reality as you know it cannot be trusted at face value.
>>221251288No, it was supposed to make me feel a familiar dull ache in my torso, and it worked. I am not loved, desired or missed. I am surplus man.
>>221252022Of course, the first Hellraiser is an excellent premise.The problem is autistic writers didn't understand the dual horror concept of the cenobites being more of a force than a villain while having a terrible ex-victim of them be the primary villain.They're like "I want to see muh Pinhead do a good guy thing against the new BIG BAD ultimate chosen cenobite GOD "The Doktor!" :o"
>>221251733Classic photoshop. I can tell by the pixels.
>>221251806No
>>221252061good point in the first movie the villains are really frank and the mom idr her name and pinhead is more mysterious then he became a gay comic book character for the dumb nerds to fag out about
>>221252055Maybe people who don't "get" the backrooms have a less active top down visual and spatial threat anticipation. So they can't imagine anything past the literal room they see. They probably watched the movie, and saw a picture of the backrooms, and that's as far as they got. It's like playing minecraft and finding it boring because it's just place outside with blocks.
>>221251864>a truck has never been a horror movie villainSomeone get on this.
>>221251230Yes. It's the most basic premise imaginable. (Non derogatory)
>>221252207>truck has never been a horror movie villainLiterally Spielberg's first film
>>221252226Cool, gonna watch it
it does say a lot about zoomersthey're so eager to villify each other, psychoanalyze each other, try to make the normal person out to be an incel, a psycho killer, a mass murdererironically they're all on meds and get therapythey're just a completely fucked generationabsolutely bricked by social media and their own neurosis
>>221252207
>>221252226there are multiple versions of Stephen King's "Trucks"Maximum Overdrive is the theatrical version and not terriblebut the made for TV 1997 "Trucks" is best, for featuring a hilarious scene where a mailman gets murdered by a tonka truckalso the truck designs are cooler and it doesn't have the stupid green goblin truck
>>221251109why does Art never losing his hat even when he's getting beat up?
>>221250787So the ultimate horror of the modern era is having a girl in your room?
>>221250787Bottom is scarier because they're actually real.
