I love "ghost caught on film" clips on Youtube. In many ways they're a new kind of horror film genre pioneered by those Blair Witch folks. Some claim to be real, but of course they're not. Right?
The Big Money is about love, fashion, loneliness, sexual fantasy, World War II trivia, drunkenness, betrayal, murderous rages, the Spider Demon at the end of Doom, and cat-sitting. It is true in the emotional, but not legally actionable sense. Buy it on Kindle... ...or Nook.
The second one felt real for a while, until I saw how ridiculous the ghost was at the end. It actually had me for a while.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of it. But I think slowing the action down to emphasize the ghost is a mistake.
ReplyDeleteAlso, when you create horror, you're always one step away from the ridiculous.
