    There's something that I find interesting about this film, it doesn't give the cursed film a backstory. Usually with these kinds of stories, they give background about the filmmakers and the actors and talk about how "strange things happened during the movie's production" or that the actors died tragic accidents either during the film's creation or after it was finished, or even imply that the director was a satanist and this film was like some kind of front for a ritual and tricked the rest of the crew into thinking that it was a typical horror film. This film doesn't do any of that, and I personally think that it adds more to the cursed film's mystique (even though the mockumentary never once acknowledges or even debates about who made the film, where the actors are, etc.).

    Honestly, this movie feels like a better take of _Fury of the Demon,_ which was a movie about an alleged "lost" movie by Georges Méliès, the man who made _A Trip to the Moon._ However that film focused way too much on painting the film as "spooky and satanic" while not showing _anything_ about the film itself. _Antrum_ seems to show what the movie _IS_ and that is horrifying.

    • @MSinistrari
      @MSinistrari Před 3 měsíci +18

      Interesting because I thought Fury of the Demon did better on the concept than Antrum did. Maybe because of the volume of vintage films I've sat through in varying stages of falling apart, but I just wasn't sold on the premise of 'this is the actual vintage film' since it did look more like 'this is shot on digital and we slapped on the film grain' compared to other films that went and filmed on the traditional medium, tweaking it from there. Fury worked better for me in showing the other films of Melies' student who likely made Fury coupled with the interviews of the survivors. It made the lost film feel more dangerous and potentially legit arcane compared to Antrum's other people's actions and stringing coincidence together like how Poltergeist's claimed as a cursed film.

    I like that you talked about that tulpa interpretation. After I watched the film for the first time after Mista GG talked about it, I thought about the discussion during the credits and the events of the story and believed it to be about tulpas, and turned the film into something more profound than just a simple creepypasta-esque mockumentary about a cursed movie with a satanic power. I also really liked how it handled Nathan and Oralee essentially becoming complete opposites by the end of the film and took advantage of an idea that I want to see more in horror that's a horrifying take on this idea. What I mean by this is that in horror and even comedies, someone makes something up (and I mean they make it up 100% by themselves and not base it off of something), either as some kind of prank, some other plan or just a simple scary story, but by the end it's somehow inexplicably real. Whenever that happens, I'm honestly like "Ok, the characters need to question this more because none of this makes any fucking sense!" But here, Nathan already believes her lies and as the film progresses, Oralee is becoming terrified and confused about how all of this is becoming real to the point that she confesses the truth to Nathan. But to make things even worse for her mental state, Nathan says that he spoke to Ike (a demon that Oralee completely made up), before all of this even happened and told him about Oralee's lies (which I personally interpret as the tulpa becoming so powerful that it literally changed the past so that it seems like Ike was always there). After this, it's as if Nathan is slowly and subconsciously accepting the truth when the demons no longer chase him and when he finds "Cerberus," he realizes that it's just normal dog stuck in a bear trap, a dog that turns out to be friendly, not the three headed demonic dog that guards the underworld, and after that, it's like Nathan is finally at peace and accepts the reality that there are no demons. Meanwhile, Oralee is the complete opposite and it's like the tables turned on her (even if her intentions were just to help her brother). All that composure is gone and the demons and Cerberus are still chasing her. She's reduced to a screaming and crying mess, she can't comprehend how something she made up became real, to the point where she's now gaslighted herself into believing that her own made up stories are true, and thus, the demons never went away for her, they're still tormenting her. It's incredibly tragic and terrifying for these poor kids. Also, I never made that Adam and Eve connection with the snuff film. That makes more sense and is much cooler than just "ooh, spooky snuff film spliced in cursed movie that will kill you" (though I still immerse myself into it, regardless of the cheesy meta concept. Update: The last time we see them, they're dead with a bitten apple next to them, so now we know that the Adam and Eve symbolism is correct). What's also cool about this movie is that there are no jumpscares, it uses atmosphere, slow pacing, surreal imagery and preys on any superstitious fears you might have (that one scene that Mista GG praised where it's just the demon's face in the darkness with no music aside from the crackling of film and no jumpscare. That face can also be seen elsewhere in the film in scenes like 7:11 and in the darkness near the end of that long silent shot, it kind of looks like it's smiling and laughing but we don't hear anything).

      I actually like the movie but it felt very different from most of Mel Brooks's other films. They tended to be straight up farces that used a lot of meta humor like fourth wall breaks, anachronistic gags, references to other works (including Brooks's own movies) and other things that wouldn't be present in a standard movie. D:DALI is basically just an adaptation of Dracula but as a comedy. There's sight gags and humor that plays with the story, but it also doesn't delve into the farcical elements his previous movies used and even played some of it's more dramatic and creepy parts straight, which is really weird from a director who made a joke out of EVERYTHING.

      I feel like a big part of the issue is that Nielsen felt like he was in on the joke for D:DALI, instead of being the straight man character of “Airplane!” and “Police Squad.” Mel Brooks’s best work is deeply reliant on (nearly all of) the characters taking the nonsense seriously.
      Similar to how Nielsen’s performances in “Spy Hard” and “Wrongfully Accused” fell flat, and why the “History of the World” follow-up flopped.

If your movie’s framing device is this is an old and cursed movie then you better try and do whatever you can to dirty up that film to make it look like it was shot on film (or even just shoot it on film yourself).

      It’s not just film.
      Far more is the lighting, the make up, costume differences and color saturation, as well as techniques in color correction, and all aspects of how movies were made, that just aren’t used or even known anymore.
      I’ve seen cheap 70’s movies, that have been digitized, straight from the original film, and it still has a layer that just makes most colors duller, or has some effect on the overall image.
      Just makeup used, was different, because it was before they weren’t allowed to test it on animals, snd there were different chemicals used, that no longer do.
      Sometimes a movie feels like a 70’s or 80’s movie, but I’ve never seen one that I’d actually think was pre-2000, thst anyone has tried to do.
      The Lighthouse has scenes, that look like it could’ve been made in those eras, but there are others that make it clear it isn’t.
      Scorsese had the same editor, on a majority of his films, until she passed away.
      They changed with the times too, as his 70’s work differs from the 80’s, and then he has a similar look on Goodfellas and Casino, while changing again, from Gangs onward.

(Alison's Birthday/Rosemary's Baby/Season of the Witch). The storytelling is great, and the actors and cinematography really had me invested in the characters and their arc.
