Lots of people have mentioned the face is horrific because of the teeth, but I'd argue it's the gums. Lots of anthropomorphized characters have teeth that we instinctively accept without question. But the gums, so fleshy and prominent, push the smile into the uncanny valley.
also, the creases of the upper eyelids and the prominence of the lower eyelids, and the narrowed gaze, give the impression of a drunkard's leer or the dead gaze of someone who truly does not care
The conductor's face in the page where he's inside can look like a right-side-up face even though it's illustrated sideways; the left eye fills in for the mouth.
While it's not quite the same train, the diesel locomotive is an allusion to Blaine, the main antagonist of the third Dark Tower book, The Wastelands. A supersonic monorail with an artificial intelligence that went insane over the years and could only be entertained by solving riddles, who agrees to take the protagonists across the Wastelands as long as they can give it a riddle he can't solve before they reach the end of the tracks, or else it will just destroy itself with them inside.
Blaine the Train was both one of the most frustrating arcs of the series and one of the most creative…I can still vividly imagine the scenery of the Wastelands beneath the train. Not my favorite plot line, but certainly memorable.
“Are these children really laughing . . . or screaming?” Reminds me of the BTS for Nope where Peele actually had the extras record two sets of screams, one where they were screaming in terror and another where they were screaming with excitement. In the final cut of the movie both sets are meshed together, adding this weird and uneasy feeling to the screams because they don’t sound right.
The artist is a genius. I'm a huge Stephen King fan, and my daughter got this book for me for my birthday. It's one of the best presents I've ever received.
oh my god literally the only kind of scary media that actually freaks me out is the "think everything is fun and nice but it's actually incredibly dark and unsettling" genre. DHMIS gave me nightmares.
Well let me introduce you to the German childrens book I industry where there’s no book which is to scary as long as it teaches you something about life. If you’re interested search for „The Struwelpeter“ or „Max and Moritz“. But I warn you, as a German every household has to have one of those books but if you’re from another country you might be disturbed😅
This also works really well for gut punches if it’s not secret horror, but secret sad. Like when you realize the mysterious adventure music isn’t in minor to be mysterious - but because it’s an elegy
@@DreamPinkCloudsTheres one game I know that kinda did this, you could probably find a no commentary play-though if you do not like games, called Soma.
Another off thing is the color palette. A story like this, which should be cheery, would be expected to have bright colors (such as a clear blue sky, green grass, and a bright red train) but everything is muted and rusty colored (even the balloon!), a palette usually reserved for children’s books with a retrospective or serious tone.
@@randomgamer-te8op he made a harmless comment and you took issue with it correct me if that’s wrong but that’s being upset Also lots of people make that comment on CZcams it’s a trend
In the Dark Tower the way they kill the train is by making really bad jokes. The train loved riddles, and was able to get all the riddles right, but he couldn’t understand bad jokes and died by over heating for all of the stupid and incoherent jokes that one of the characters threw at him. So cool that Michael talked about the Dark Tower!!! Thank you!
The fact that the game about a locomotive named Charles, with clown makeup and spider legs, _wasn't_ at all inspired by Steven King still blows me away.
I always wondered what childhood trauma messed Michael up, but I guess now I know. Also--shameless plug--I'm hoping some of you might like the music I make too :)
@@PaintingWinterMusicHe was pretty sane back when he first started, but then he put himself in that isolation chamber and everything went downhill from there..
These are my favourite kinds or horror, not ones where they just try to shove jump scares in your face for cheap scares. Ones that leave you with more questions than answers, ones that give you chills without even trying to.
There was a small book in my primary school that was creepy af. To sum it up a girls car broke down in a rural era she walked miles to find the nearest house. The house was a time warp everything from the house was from the Victorian era. Including a cold little girl grieving over her missing family. The book ends with the woman grown up and realising she’s driving down the road where she met the girl. There’s no sign of a house. And she can’t find any records of a house being there. I think I read this when I was about 8 and it has stuck with me ever since anyone know the name of the book?
Well I mean if the point of the task was to read a proper book and write a report on it, I can understand why you'd not get a good grade when your book is super short and others have to spend time to actually read the book.
I really like how the illustrator(s) clearly took a cue from the book's description of Bob as looking cheerful at a superficial glance, but insane if you look closer.
I never thought of that, that would be SO SICK, I feel like it might give a little too much depth, the show gave us enough details to fully understand how bojack became who he is, I feel like the novel would just be the same principles portrayed through more stories
I low key hated that arc lol. Super creative and the imagery described during was awesome, as it always is in those books. It for sure had that suspense aspect King is famous for…but did it really require half a book? 🫠 lol.
I mean, in the books, all of Gordon’s brothers (barring Flying Scotsman) die Sandwich, Gay Crusader, Hermit, Dick Turpin, Colorado Spion Kop, Book Law, Salmon Trout, Singapore, etc, all gone

I read the gun slinger and i was slightly sad when i finished it lol.
I was super confused for a second, and thought maybe I was having a Mandela effect moment lol.
Stephen king what the fuck!
"...or does it?"
