Fantastic Planet is one of the most persistently horrifying films I've ever seen. I was unlucky enough to catch it on TV when I was like 10 and I had nightmares about that opening scene with the mother and her baby for years afterwards.

What the poo poo, Terry Gilliam?

The battle of Verdun. I listen to a podcast called Hardcore History. They just recently did a six part series on WWI and in one of the episodes the host talked extensively on that battle and the unique horrors of it. It's episode four of the Blueprint for Armageddon series. Listening to the personal accounts and descriptions was horrifying. Makes those pictures all the more eerie.

Similar but the Choeng Ek Killing Fields memorial outside Phnom Penh, Cambodia. I went there in 2001 and there were still teeth, bone fragments and clothing scraps on the ground next to the burial pits.

Yeah, but maybe parrots want all those things. They just have very limited tool use and no means of paying artists.

Almost everything Terry Gilliam does is traumatising. I remember watching Tideland with my brothers and sister for a 'fun night' at the cinema and I never looked away in horror so much.

Beautifully shot though, really amazing poo poo.

Dan Carlin is awesome, and the Blueprint for Armageddon series was great. The bit on the mud of Passchendaele was what got me most. The idea that a guy would get irretrievably stuck in the muck while you marched out to the line, and then to come back days later and find him sunk up to his neck and begging passers-by to shoot him.

Ugh.

Oh yeah that was remarkably horrible. But the part that got me was when he was talking about the wells in Verdun (I think it was Verdun) and they would send the mustard gas and people would scramble to find their gas masks and were trapped in the wells and couldn't get out of them. ANd all the time the gas is just slowly creeping closer to them, this visible wall of gas inching closer and closer.

Wilfred Owen's poem is probably the most evocative description of a gas attack I've ever read, and definitely fits the theme of this thread.

Wildred Owen posted:


Dulce et Decorum Est

Bent double, like old beggars under sacks,
Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs
And towards our distant rest began to trudge.
Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots
But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind;
Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots
Of tired, outstripped Five-Nines that dropped behind.

Gas! Gas! Quick, boys!—An ecstasy of fumbling,
Fitting the clumsy helmets just in time;
But someone still was yelling out and stumbling
And flound’ring like a man in fire or lime...
Dim, through the misty panes and thick green light,
As under a green sea, I saw him drowning.

In all my dreams, before my helpless sight,
He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.

If in some smothering dreams you too could pace
Behind the wagon that we flung him in,
And watch the white eyes writhing in his face,
His hanging face, like a devil’s sick of sin;
If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood
Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs,
Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cud
Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues,—
My friend, you would not tell with such high zest
To children ardent for some desperate glory,
The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est
Pro patria mori.

How would you even keep something like that clean?

Like a regular vagina is self cleaning and discharges and all that gross stuff.

That tube would resemble the inside of that public fleshlight at burning man after a while.

Sticking a bottle brush in your fauxgina every couple days doesn't sound fun!
