You know, the funny thing is that I have the complete show in my collection, including the movies, including the latest episodes, which represents a rather huge chunk of disk space, and I don't want to throw it away, it's a very unique piece of work
But I never watch them, and again not because I don't appreciate the work, obviously
And you know why? Why I never watch it?
Bad waves
It's like something creeps out of his work, something real (yeah I sound weird) as if it was some sort of porte-malheur
>porte-malheur noun A person or thing supposed to bring bad luck jinx → porte-malheur proper noun a jinx Jonah → porte-malheur
Not to sound trite, but I feel like there is a very real dark mirror that is held up to this reality.
Somewhere I often go to when I sleep. I think a lot of people experience the same thing, and attempt to depict it as best they can.
It is almost like here, but really uncanny and tinged with darkness.
But when I look at certain media, I feel like the person in charge of producing it as seen it too.
Like Zelda: Link to the Past, with the mirror universe, or David Lynch with Eraserhead, or in Tetsuo, the Iron Man.
And it isn't really a dream world. It is this world, so close to us, just seeing all the aspects of darkness we usually aren't observant enough to notice.
Talking about mirrors, I learned recently about an old western tradition about mirrors, it was in a ghost documentary "most haunted houses in the US" or something like that. And in the past, they used to cover mirrors when a death happened in a household because they believed that the dead could end up trapped, in mirrors
It is just always a weird dim purple dusk when I have those dreams.
