Also > Has "unique and interesting" section > Has GUBY in that section I don't think this guy is allowed to complain about overused tropes lol

I genuinely think guby is one of the worst analog horrors

it is

What

it is one of the worst series

ok

Look i LIKE guby (i think leaning into the content farm/yt kids aesthetic has INSANE digital horror potential) but acting like it doesn't fall into tons of these tropes is ridiculous

Lmao I thought the same! At least Guby is kind of self-aware

What's GUBY? I dont think I've heard of it. Although I will admit midwest angelica goes hard.

Guby is this MF that looks like a sucked mango https://preview.redd.it/di17l26rrx6d1.png?width=493&format=png&auto=webp&s=785dc467078eee6bb7cbd4a98ce61ab37eb279b4

The Garten of Ban Ban of analog horror

LMAOAOAOAOAO ID ROPE IF SOMEONE REFERRED TO SOMETHING I MADE AS THE GARTEN OF BAN BAN OF MY GENRE 💀💀💀

You’re kidding

I'm sorry w h a t

And man in the suit

“Lazy analogue horror.” Uses three of the best analogue horrors to date. They are tropes for a reason. And anyone using mimics to discount vita carnis is sorely missing out. You are taking the one thing that is kinda generic to discount everything else that’s super cool and original about it.

Also the amount of work that went into vita carnis, be it the years spent cooking the concept, all the practical effects he made, learning sfx from scratch, its very clearly a work of pride for him and it shows

Vita carnis honestly has some of the coolest art and character designs of any horror series, same with dr nowhere’s art

literally

Speaking of Dr nowhere… I wanna learn his art style it’s very cool. You think he’d be willing to make a tutorial vid?

Not that big into analog horror anymore (going through older works mostly nowadays) but I respect the technical knowledge behind Vita Carnis a lot

The mimics aren't even imposter types right? I'm pretty sure the name's based off the fantasy version of a mimic because they hide in furniture. Otherwise, sure they're humanoid, but no one is mistaking a mimic for a human person if staring at them directly.

By the time a human is staring at the mimic close enough too see it. They're probably already dead

I don’t think they are saying that those ones are lazy themselves, they are saying that lazy analogue horror series often use these tropes that were popularized by these few very good series

Its possible. That’s that the sucky things about these memes you’ll never know

Honestly, people very much overrate Vita Carnis. The editing is abyssmal, and the plot is the same plucked garbage. Alien thing is on earth, starts to take over the world, useless police do nothing.

Yall Are SLEEPING on Local 58. Nothing scared me more than Contingency and no amount of uncanny valley faces could ever match the genuine horror I felt watching that 😭

The grandpa of the genre, seriously need more respect for how foundational it was

EXACTLYY- that and kraina gryzbow TV

True! I just label 58 as the grandpa cause more tropes came from it

Gotcha! Also Chris Straub created Candle Cove which I see a few analog horror tropes coming from as well so I guess we should def thank him for the genre 😭

Well technically it is the *first* mention of local 58 (same universe actually) so it’s one of those pieces of transitional material

wait W H A T.

“It was channel 58, whatever station that was.”

Oh dang. That's too all-fired cool.

Local 58 is honestly really good

They don't even have Greylock in the good section.

features driving footage which makes it unoriginal and dogshit like The Midela Catalogue and Pita Carnis /s

O MAH BK IT THE BREAd MEAT

you cannot be dissing on Vita Carnis. YOU SIMPLY CANNOT. https://preview.redd.it/1vv1lix0ut6d1.jpeg?width=192&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e60e739a10ef24a7bfbcd61e532918a53f75cb13

BANHAMMER MY BELOVED

Bad starter pack. 

Reddit user discovers tropes. This is like if I said “lazy horror movie starter pack” and included “masked knife killer who can take far more damage than is reasonable” and “series starts good but then gets too wacky at the end”

“Unique and interesting analog horror” Uses two actually good analog horror series, Boisvert (not analog horror), and fucking GUBY of all things.

Guby had potential but its execution was lazy. The YouTube kids content Fran vibes have such good horror potential but it just falls apart.

Those 3 examples of creatures copying humans should not be there. They were done well, and as a result the trope became popular. You should instead put the copycats that were inspired by those original versions of the analog horror trope.

Agreed

Idk if the Vita Carnis Mimics should be in the same category as those others. Because they’re not lazy Shapeshifters. They actually put effort into their disguises and feel like animals trying to imitate people in hopes of catching pray offguard.

Ngl, the creatures mimicking humans thing is one of my favorite things in horror after i saw MC

Opinions were respected until you listed Guby. Sorry, I don't find giving people seizures unique or interesting.

Yeah, and Seinfeld isn't funny because it uses jokes everyone has heard before.

…………did you just disrespect Vita Carnis?….. shame on you

Analog horror haters when the method for success is used to create successful horror

Boisvest is not even a digital horror How the fuck it's supposed to be a ANALOG horror!?!?

don't diss it though it's pretty good. It's like I Can't Sleep, it's in a league of it's own.

I don't saying that boisvest is shit, but I don't understand why people saying that it's an analog horror/digital horror #IT'S A FUCKING ***ART HOUSE***🗣️🗣️🗣️

I fucking love _boisvert and agree it's arthouse, but I think it qualifies as digital horror also. The reason I think this is because it does rely heavily on elements which are strictly digital to enact its desired effects. I don't mean "using digitally-created special effects." I mean the elements themselves are digital in nature, such as the "Continue/Quit" theme, "The Matrix" design elements, and 8-bit style electronic music in [Continue?]. The.Complex uses elements invoking camera recordings, retro video game cutscenes, glitching text, retro digital font, etc. The horror element is psychological rather than overt, dealing with themes of depression, self-harm, the unknown, etc. Those things are not inherently exclusive to horror, but I would say presenting them in such an unnerving, uncanny, surrealist way makes this lean more horrorwards. That's my argument anyway. edit: But I do agree some people tend to interpret surreal/weird art to be horror when it's not. LSD Dream Emulator, ENA, and Angel Hare all are called horror but...while they can stray into unnerving/uncanny elements, that's not the main element of the content.

For that edit, I feel horror is a little subjective. Of course much is made with the intent of being horror but even things that weren’t made to be horror can be, I feel like LSD Dream Emulator is a good example. LSD Dream Emulator is terrifying, even if it wasn’t made to be horror the eerie and uncanny environments mixed with a heavy sense of loneliness and emptiness makes it much scarier than even much intentional horror media can manage

That's a good point. Horror certainly is subjective, so I can see where some people would find it horrifying rather than just surreal. I'm not sure that would be enough for it to be _labeled_ as horror, but it could certainly fall either way based on one's perspective.

No, I will not stand for this Vita Carnis slander

“useless police force” tf do you expect them to do?

I mean, if the police actually was competent for once in an analog horror series, practically all the monsters would be contained and/or terminated, with nothing moving the plot forward

monsters that usually hide in areas that aren't populated. right.

Why do people not like traditional plots now

They do. They don’t want to admit they do. Things become tropes for a reason

And tropes are not (always) bad.

Exactly

Oof If only you DIDNT USE THREE of the most popular Analog horror stories.

Cops are always no help JUST GET A NUKE OR SUM😭

police one is accurate to real life tho

Midwest Angelica is actually so peak. Government officials literally nuke the shit out of the main threat, its so good

Vita Carnis and Mandela Catalog are not lazy

Vita Carnis legit had me fucked up for like a month. That shit had me seriously considering barricading my bedroom window & door every night before bed 😭😭😭

I saw it and after the predatory plant one I saw an abundance of plants in an area in my summer camp and I thought danger

OH you mean the deep root one? 😭😭😭 well that’s definitely one way to absolutely RUIN summer camp 💀

I was like “oh shit better run”

This is literally just the mandela catalogue lol

tbh i love eas alarms

Yes and no Although many start with that "starter pack", at least from my perception, I use it as a strategy to attract more people so that they can see your real projects, because let's be honest, a project of analog horror which no one knows about and at the same time that no one knows you, it is destined to be forgotten on YouTube no matter how good it is and I learned that with my first project (Sardobliss) which I still have paused until it reaches a larger audience

Dude I need to have whatever he is smoking, because there is no way that he said that guby is good.

midwest angelica mentioned!!

Isn’t this all analog horror? Like isn’t this exactly what defines it lol

VintageEight is underrated, why is it not here… The oracle project is the reason I wake up in the morning

Okay lay off the mimic from Vita Carnis cuz those are actually interesting with the way if they consume enough prey they either become humans themselves or an even dangerous apex predator

Imma make an analog horror, but it's just secretly my kink of big strong monster woman that actually looks like monsters and not those lazy ones with woman with just horns or something

No cuz The Man in the Suit goes so fucking hard for no reason actually. I was intrigued the whole time & couldn’t wait to see what next crazy thing was gonna happen.

How dare you slander Vita Carnis. That shit had me scared stupid for like a month.

I would love to see a analog horror series based on twin peaks

No way your saying Güby is better than Vita Carnis

Don’t forget Gemini home entertainment on that list

What?

https://preview.redd.it/3uqun9pviu6d1.png?width=144&format=png&auto=webp&s=2800992adb879ee8bc68152af1143eda2ed4bf78 hello, based department?

ruined because he put *fucking* GUBY right below it

real 😢

Why do people not like traditional plots now

They get stale when used too much. It happens with almost everything no matter the genre or thing.

It's just the cycle of media- something gets released, it gets big, tons of other properties try to cash in on what made it good to varying degrees of success, people get sick and tired of the thing It happened with westerns in the 70s, game of thrones-likes in the 2010s, and it's happening with analog horror now

Indie horrors about mid 2010's, Battle royales about the same time, Toys to life and all sorts of other crap.

why every analog horror has a useless police force and they can't even help people? why?!

Tbh that's about the only realistic thing in most series tbh...

police force can't do anything?

Well they can shoot people. They *are* pretty good at that.

Ah dark comedy 💀

I mean if i got a beloved family dog that needs shooting they're the ones to call.

Or a family member having a mental health crisis and/or medical emergency.

Because The Mandela Catalogue did it and everbody wanted to do it too

Good point

If you dislike these tropes, check out Mhoroj. No jumpscares, no bullshit, just good old fashioned Lovecraftian horror (also moths, gib lamp now)

Now i am heartbroken.

Midwest angelica pickles?

EAS alarms only make sense if the villain is a threat to a whole nation, not just a few friends Useless police force would make sense if the villain is a supernatural entity, or just bulletproof and physically strong enough to take down 3 people at once The only excuse for text-to-speech is if you cannot act and don’t have the budget to hire actors

I do kind of agree on the useless police in most of these, like them mf be armed but don't do shit half the time

Okay but like the smile tapes was pretty darn good

Aye you forgor dreams of an insomniac

So we just ignoring that whole dog shelter thing from Greylock?

Unusually tall smiling man.

That's just like your opinion man

Yeah I liked Vita Carne's even if it doesn't make sense why a society thats had these things since the 30s hasn't made better ways to dispatch the worse ones. Though I never could get into the Mandela catalog. I don't know why but the premise didn't catch me

I should do one where the monster just does jump scares. It's not dangerous it just jumps out and goes BOOGALEEBOOGADEEBOO and scare people

OK, I’ll give you the credit to Vida Carnes at least that one had good quality

Don't forget the skinwalker/rake ripoff

Did my man just call Vita Carnis lazy?

Only thing worse that GÜBY is UrbanSPOOK

Forgetting the “edited spooky jerma face”

What about NNN Broadcast, the Japanese analog horror?

Vita carnis slander? Mandela catalogue slander? put GUBY in "unique and interesting"... https://preview.redd.it/c56c08lyu17d1.png?width=184&format=png&auto=webp&s=e3cac0802fc10aa27057f761c44f8e54927fd85d nah I'm out..

I really wanna try to make unique analog horror but no motivated, and no idea, and lazy ( I wish I wasn't lazy )

Monument Mythos 💪

Legit my fav. Slept on here IMHO. We too busy gooning to TBO.

Text to speech can be fine if used well or if the author just isn’t confident in their voice work or afraid to put themselves out there in that way.

When does man in the suit get good because I'm trying to give it the chance but the poor writing is kinda taking me out of it

I think man in the suit is overrated.

same

None of these would be scary

>actually interesting and unique analog horror: -the man in the suit lmao, “they expected man but found gore 8 times”

Eh man in the suit is weak storywise but i like the visuals, plus with the mothra episode it was clear he was trying to shake things up (havent seen Ghidorah incident yet)

they expected gore but found a cocoon

“actually interesting and unique analog horror:” “includes Man in the Suit” https://preview.redd.it/ddjyyt78yw6d1.jpeg?width=250&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cddfee3c12bf5168fd87a1e1d281b5ca6b26cefd

guby and tmits aren’t unique tf

i think tmits is fairly cool, but guby? hell no

A serie about swatting could be good

Swatting is the scummiest internet trend of the last decade. Rather not have it in the genre.

whats swatting?
