Short Horror Film Friday: NO THROUGH ROAD 4

Welcome to this Week’s Installment of Short Horror Film Friday featuring NO THROUGH ROAD 4 the Final Short in the British Psychological Horror Series. This Installment is a Bit Different because Below the Film We have Our Series Synopsis where We examine the Four Films in an Attempt to Deduce What it was all About/What was Going On. If You haven’t seen the Three Previous NO THROUGH ROAD Short Films We Highly Suggest You Do before watching NO THROUGH ROAD 4 (You can Find all Three Previous Shorts Here in the Movie Category in case Some aren’t Aware).

Outstanding Questions Entering NO THROUGH ROAD 4:

  • Will the Boys Manage to Escape from the Man in the Mask Alive?
  • Who is The Man in the Mask
  • What is the Endless Loop All About?
  • What Happened to Steven during the 3 Years He was Missing and Presumed Dead?
  • What is Steven’s Connection to The Man in a Mask?
  • What does Steven Know that HE’s Not telling the Others About?
  • How did the Boys come to Find Themselves in this Sinister Situation to Begin With?
  • Whats the Significance of the Tunnel?
  • What’s the Significance of the NO THROUGH ROAD Signs?
  • Can the Man in the Mask Be Killed and if So How?
  • Why is the Man in the Mask Terrorizing Travelers (What’s His Motive)?

Enjoy.

So What was it all About: Final Summation

Basically, the Boys Found the House and Figured Out that the Mysterious Man in a Mask that Terrorizes the Boys Lives There. Essentially,  The Man in a Mask  has been Living Out in the Middle of Nowhere, Tormenting and Quite Possibly Killing People Who Unknowingly Dare Trespass on His Property. Now, the Interesting thing Here is that You have to stop thinking Steven and The Man in the Mask are Two Different People.
The Signs that said “No Through Road” were a Dire Warning to Travelers. How things go for Steven is as follows:
Present: They Found Steven (When He shows Up Out of Nowhere in No Through Road 2)
Past: He was “Murdered” along with His Friends.
Future: The Man in the Mask/Steven Knows what the Tunnel is and Tries to Warn People Off from it.
Instead, People/Travelers go through without thinking, so He Tries to Scare Them Away. The Tunnel itself is like the Movie Groundhog Day; an Infinitely-Looping Series of Events that Only the One(s) Who are Aware and/or Experiencing them can Prevent. Steven believed that if He Prevented The Man in the Mask (Himself) from Attacking the Past Him, it would Somehow Alter the Outcome of the Events that Followed. Unfortunately, He Ended up Attacking Himself and Repeating the Events that lead to Him being Discovered.  Horrified by what He had Done, Steven Runs Away and Hides where Nobody can find Him, Unless They go Searching. He stays there for Years, scavenging together Food and shit for However long and doing His Best to Prevent a Repeat of Events. Except each day, He Repeats the Same Thing in an Eternal Loop.
The Reason Why the Boys  can’t Hurt The Man in the Mask is because He Does Not Exist at the Same Point in Time. Steven in the Future has Learned that Not Only did the Tunnel Trap Him in an Infinite Loop, but with some Practice, He can Jump to Specific Points in Time. Steven is No-face. He wants to Prevent Other People/Travelers from Experiencing His Hell. He knows No Matter what, Regardless of what Point in Time He jumps to, the Events that are Keeping Him there are a Fixed Point in Time. Anything that Happens following Someone’s Discovery of the Tunnel Automatically becomes a Fixed Point in Time that keeps You Trapped Unable to Escape.

Short Horror Film Friday: The Horribly Slow Murderer With The Extremely Inefficient Weapon

We are  Delighted Present this Week’s Short Horror Film Friday Featuring the 2008 Horror Comedy  The Horribly Slow Murderer With The Extremely Inefficient Weapon Written, Directed, and Narrated by Richard Gale. The 11 Minute Film was Filmed Entirely in California with a Panasonic HVX200 over the Course of 22 Days on a $600 Budget.

The Movie itself is Presented as Being a Trailer for a Whopping 9 Hour Long Movie. It starts with a Voiceover, telling the Viewer that: “Some Murders take Seconds; Some Murders take Minutes; This Murder….will take Years!”

                  

Synopsis:

The Movie Portrays the Story of a Forensic Pathologist Named Jack Cucchiaio (Cucchiaio is the Italian Word for Spoon), Who Finds Himself being Tormented by a Deranged and Ghoulish looking Man, Who is, Without any Clear Reason, Hitting Him with a Spoon. No One seems to believe this though as the Ominous Attacker Only shows up when Jack is Alone. As Jack’s Torment Continues He starts to Develop a Phobia of Spoons resorting to Stirring His Coffee with a Fork for Example.

Jack Attempts to Defend Himself by Stabbing the Ghoulish Man in the Throat with a Kitchen Knife, but to Jack’s Surprise He turns out to be Immortal. The Ghoulish Man Simply pulls the Knife Out of HIs Throat and Tosses it Away before continuing to Hit Jack with the Dreaded Spoon. However, in this Scene Jack Notices a Strange Sign on the Arm of the Ghoulish Man.

Jack Travels to the Far East where HE Learns that the Ghoulish Man is Known as The Ginosaji (which is Japanese for “Silver Spoon”), an Immortal and Unstoppable Being. It Searches for a Victim to Terrorize and Slowly Kill by Repeatedly Hitting Them with a Spoon. The Ginosaji will Follow Jack to the Ends of the Earth, and it will Never Stop Attacking Jack until Jack is Dead. In Spite of Learning about the Ginosaji  Jack still tries to Escape the Ginosaji by Traveling Around the Globe, and Repeatedly Trying to Kill it with Various Weapons such as Guns, Dynamite, and Even a RPG (Rocket Propelled Grenade.) but all His Efforts are Futile. That is Until as the Ginosaji is Striking a Worn Out, Weakened, and Wounded Jack as He is Crawling through the Desert THE SPOON BREAKS!!

Is this Some Sort of Supernatural Loophole that will Allow Jack to Finally Rid Himself of The Ginosaji Once and For All? You’ll have to watch and See for Yourself.

Enjoy.

A Sick Saturday Cinema One Movie Double Feature: TOMBS OF THE BLIND DEAD

FYB is Deviously Delighted to Bring You the 1972 Spanish- Portuguese Zombie Horror Film TOMBS OF THE BLIND DEAD Written and Directed by Amando de Ossorio. The Original Spanish Title is La note del terror ciego which Translates to The Night of the Blind Terror in English. The Film was the First in Ossorio’s “Blind Dead” Series that Spawned Three Sequels, and Who’s Success Helped Kickstart the Spanish Horror Movie Boom in the 1970’s.

              

This Movie Presentation is a Little Different than the Normal FYB Format Granted, But Aside from that Please Allow Us to Explain Ourselves. This Particular Double Feature is the Same Movie and there is a Reason for that. The First Version is the English Version then Following it is the Original Spanish-Portuguese Version. Aside from the Fairly Obvious Difference of Subtitles there are In Fact Several Major Differences Between the Two Versions of The Tombs of the Blind Dead..

In the English Version a Flashback of the Living Nights Templar Torturing and Drinking the Blood of a Female Victim was Removed from the Beginning of the Movie. Most of the SEX AND GORE was Removed from the English Version as Well which was Heavily Edited By American Film Distributers. For Example The Scene Depicting the Lesbian Relationship between Betty and Virginia, a Scene in which Pedro Rapes Betty, and a Sequence on a Train in Which the Knights Kill a Woman in Front of Her Child were All Removed.

              

Brief Plot Summary: In the 13th Century there Existed a LEGION OF EVIL Renegade Knights known as the Templars, Who Quested for Eternal Life by DRINKING HUMAN BLOOD and Committing HUMAN SACRIFICES FOR SATAN! Executed for Their Unholy Black Magic and Inhuman Savagery, the Templar’s Bodies were left Out for The Crows to Peck Out Their Eyes. Now in Modern Dat Portugal, a Group of Unsuspecting People stumble Upon the Templar’s Abandoned Monastery, Thus Reviving Their ROTTING ZOMBIFIED CORPSES to Terrorize the Land Feasting on the Blood of the Living!!

Enjoy.

We Hope You Enjoyed This Tale of The Undead Monk Madness and Murder as Much as We Did.

Dark Web Video Debunked: MAMA

This Video Referred to as MaMa was Allegedly a Video from the Dark Web. Now Sometimes Various Dark Web Videos borrow Clips from Non Dark Web Videos (Example: The Dark Web Video “Obey The Walrus” used Bootlegged Footage from a Performer who goes by the Name The Goddess Bunny) and This Video is One of Those. Granted without Context the Video is Seriously More Creepy and Unnerving.

               

The Truth Behind the Video is it’s a Movement/Motion Test for Actor Javier Botet who Plays the Ghost dubbed “MaMa” in Award Winning Mexican Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro’s  Supernatural Thriller of the Same Name. Actor Javier Botet has Marfan Syndrome which Allows Him to Move in Ridiculously Creepy Ways. Marfan Syndrome is an Inherited Disorder that Affects Connective Tissue- the Fibers that Support and Anchor Your Organs and Other Structures in Your Body. The Wires in the Video are used to Manipulate Javier like a Human Marionette on Top of His already Disturbing Performance. It’s worth Noting that CGI Effects were Added to the MAMA Character though Many People Objected stating Javier Botet’s Original Performance was FAR Creepier than with the Additional CGI.

              

The Movie MaMa is a Haunting Tale of Two Girls  (Victoria and Lilly) who Disappeared into the Woods the Day Their Parents were Killed. When the Girls are Rescued Years Later and begin a New Life, They find that Someone or Something still wants to come Tuck Them In at Night.

Below is First the MAMA Movement/Motion Test Footage Followed by a Clip  from the Movie in which the Character MAMA is Revealed, and Lastly is Guillermo del Toro’s  MAMA Movie Trailer #2.

Enjoy.

Antigonish

This is One of My Favorite Poems so I decided to Post It. “Antigonish” is a Poem written by American Educator and Poet William Hughes Mearns in 1899. The Poem was Inspired by Reports of a Ghost of a Man Roaming the Stairs of a Haunted House, in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, Canada, the Poem was Originally part of a Play called The Psyco-ed, which Mearns had written for an English Class at Harvard University, Circa 1899.

               

“Yesterday, upon the stair,

I met a man who wasn’t there!

He wasn’t there again today,

Oh how I wish He’d go away!

 

When I came home last night at three,

The man was waiting for me

But when I looked around the hall,

I couldn’t see him there at all!

Go away, go away, don’t you come back anymore!

Go away, go away, and please don’t slam the door…

 

Last night I saw upon the stair,

A little man who wasn’t there,

He wasn’t there again today

Oh, how I wish he’d go away….

The Mystery of Hi I’m Mary Mary

Welcome to “Hi I’m Mary Mary” which is an Extremely Obscure Homegrown Horror Web Series that first appeared on Youtube (on July 10, 2016), and the Series is Still Ongoing to this Very Day. It’s Dark and Intense with a Seriously Cool Pick Your Own Adventure/RPG Interactive Aspect. So What is it all About You Wonder? Well We aren’t quite Sure exactly, but Heres a Run Down of the Pertinent Points/Information We Have.

            

“Hi I’m Mary Mary”:

  • The Series Main Character is Named Mary who wakes up in a what She refers to as “A Copy of My Parents House”, and Has No Idea how She got there.
  • All the Doors in the House are Locked and The Windows are Unbreakable Trapping Mary Inside.
  • Mary does find a Video Camera and has Internet Access (Though She can’t See What Anyone is Posting/Saying or Responding to. Simply Put its a preverbal One Way Street).
  • The Series Spills Over in Mary’s actual Twitter Account and Her Blog. Each Platform pervades it’s Own Clues and Insight as to What is Going on in the House and with/to Mary Herself.
  • Mary uses the Video Camera She finds in the House to Document Her Time in the House since well, She seems to have Nothing but Time considering She’s Trapped. The Day are rather Uneventful, But when Night Falls All fucking Hell Breaks Loose.

           

  • There are a Total of Five Separate and Distinct Characters in Addition to Mary Four of Which are Demonic Living in the House, and Exist Only to Torment Mary Relentlessly (again Mostly at Night). The Fifth is The Lady In White Who is a Mysterious Ally though Mary May be Totally Unaware of this Fact.
  • The First Evil Entity in the House is Beauty who appears Only when Mary is looking in a Mirror. Beauty appears wearing a Dress and a Flawless Mask, and Laughs Hysterically Mocking at Mary. Beauty is believed is the  Embodiment of Mary’s Physical Insecurities.
  • The Veiled Lady appears at the End of the First Video and is the Most Predominate of the Sinister Spirits Lurking in the House. She has almost a the Leader of sorts to the Ghastly Group. The Veiled Lady also gets More and More Aggressive with Mary, and is the Only Entity that can actually Speak Directly to Mary. It is believed The Veiled Lady is Symbolic of Depression.

           

  • The Shadow appears when Mary Feels Safe and has a Noteable Trait. That Trait is whenever the Shadow is present Phrases Flash on the Screen (example “I Feel Nothing.” and “I Messed Up.” and the Shadow makes Mary in Her words “Feel Terrible.”

Some of Mary’s Tweets pertaining to the Shadow are as Follows:

  • “The way it moves…its so unsettling. sometimes just seems…wrong. I don’t like looking at it- staring directly makes me feel bad.”
  • ‘I HATE looking at it. what does it even do? It just follows me around and when I look at it, I feel terrible.”
  • “god I feel so freaking empty.it’s watching me. why doesn’t it move quickly. it’s like it wants me to feel this.”
  • “its looking at me right now. at least i think it is. i’m going to go into another room and close the door. it will probably open it.”
  • The Shadow is believed to be the Manifestation of Regret.

            

  • The Darkness is the Most Ominous and Mysterious of the Four Ghoulish Ghosts. In one Video Mary chases The Darkness and Catches it, but When She Lifts Her hand The Darkness Absorbs into Her Palm. When Mary catches The Darkness the phrase “I’m a Monster” Flashes on the Screen. After this Encounter the Other Evil Entities have Their various Barriers Removed allowing Them to Become Bigger, Stronger, and More Terrifying than Ever Before. It is believed The Darkness represents Anxiety.
  • During the Series at one Point Mary finds a Way out of the House through a Door that Leads to What She calls “The Garden” (which is more like a Pond in the Woods, and sometimes its just Water).
  • The Garden is Peaceful and Calm it’s Mary’s Only Escape from the Hellish Abuse from inside the House, and She becomes Dependent on it to provide a Shelter from the Storm. Unfortunately for Mary the Garden starts to Decay the Sun Vanishes and is Replaced By Grey Skys and Rain. As time passes Mary starts to find Abandoned Places and Broken things around the Garden.
  • Mary’s visits to The Garden become Shorter and Shorter  as The Garden Starts to make Mary Physically Ill. It is believed the Garden Represents Drug Use/ Drug Addiction as it parallels the Five Stages of Drug Addiction (The Five Stages are 1. First Use  2. Regular Use  3. Risky Use,  4. Dependence  5. Disorder)

            

  • As the Garden Decay Away and starts making Mary Sick the Malevolent Spirits become Intenser and Physically violent towards Mary.
  • The Drug/Narcotic in Question is more than Likely Heroin. There is Repeated Footage of Mary Rubbing Her Arm specifically Her Upper Forearm (which is the Preferred Injection Site for Junkies which Leads to Track Marks). This Behavior is First seen in the Video “Check In” and continues through the Rest of the Series so Far.
  • It’s in the Garden We meet the Final Character The Lady In White and the Question surrounding Her is is She an Enemy or Ally?! From what We can Tell She is most definitely an Ally though Mary is utter oblivious to this Fact.

The Lady in White Hides Her face and Only Mouths words to Mary. If You watch the Videos in Slow Motion You can make Out What exactly The Lady In White Is Saying. Here are some Examples:

  • “This place is not good for you.”
  • “Mary, please listen to me.”
  • “Mary you are not ok…”
  • “You need help.”
  • “Please Mary listen to me.”
  • “You have to get out of here.”

            

  • It Appears the Lady In White is a Force of Good Desperately trying to Communicate with Mary but to No Avail.
  • There is a Hidden Message in the Source Code on Mary’s Blog that apparently is from The Lady In White. In Summation it states She is in fact trying to Communicate with Mary, But She believes the Four Malicious Entities in the House are Preventing Her from doing so. She states She isn’t sure if Anyone (aka the Viewers) can even see the Messages, Yet She thinks there is a good chance Someone will. She then attempts to say what exactly She wants to tell Mary, But the Messages Cuts Out. The Lady In White Says She’ll try Again and Again the Message cuts out before The Lady In White can Communicate Her Message. She implores Views to Assist Her in getting Mary the Emergency.
  • This Brings Us full Circle back the The House that’s a Copy of Mary’s Parent’s House. It is believed The House is a Representation of Mary’s Own Mental State. The House is Mary’s Mind Plagued by The Demons of Depression, Anxiety, Regret, and Self Loathing (Low Self Esteem).
  • Then if the House is Mary’s Mental State  Then the Garden is an Altered State like a Drug Induced High.

Below You Will Find the “Hi I’m Mary Mary” in its Entirety, but also keep in Mind that the Series is Still Currently Ongoing. Enjoy.

Hope You Enjoyed This Ongoing Cerebral Psychological Horror Series as Much as We Do.

Thanks for Reading/Watching,
