Didn't Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross do the score for Bird Box? That's one score of theirs I've never revisited.

Did Covid screw up Netflix from releasing this earlier? I remember the original being very popular but now it's been 5 years since release.

If I remember this is just how the main character sees the creature as she's afraid of being a mother. Good thing it was cut because it just looks it's for the wrong kind of movie. And also undercuts any horror we get from an unseen monster.

Probably a delay from rewriting an original script about monsters that will kill you if you smell them.

Pretty sure there's a movie called Thorns about zombies reanimated by a weird fungus that controls the body like a puppet. One character got one arm infected and it started moving by itself.

I think quake 2 got the right soundtrack for the game they wanted to make, the big mistake was calling it quake instead of something unrelated. Even dressing it up a little and changing up the techbase aesthetic in later levels to be more demonic it would have been a decent doom 3.

Sonic Mayhem posted:

Trent didn't decline because he didn't liked it. He was too busy. When I started talking to id they had no idea what or who they wanted at first. Only after submitting our demo, they wanted to go the metal route.

It's funny how it's practically clockwork that any rumor relating to game development mentioning someone's strong feelings on something turns out to be bullshit. Gonna guess it's the combination of schoolyard gossip culture and the shitton of NDAs that devs are forced to sign on a regular basis.

It's a piece of JUNK!
Trent was pretty much at the lowest point in his life while they were making Quake 2, so it's completely unsurprising that he didn't get involved (and perhaps also doesn't remember that one interaction perfectly). I assume he was also under plenty of pressure to work on his next album since he was also at the commercial height of his career. Hard to crank out another soundtrack under those conditions, he was not quite the workhorse he is today.

He did quit the Doom 3 project due to "bad management" which may be getting conflated with the Quake 2 story. He was supposed to do some really intricate stuff with the sound design that would kind of create Industrial music-esque soundscapes on the fly (probably too ambitious, really), and also maybe a title song. Some of his sound effects are available as a mod, but that's about it.

Demonic is totally fine if you temper your expectations, since it’s clearly one of Blomkamp’s “Oats Studios” projects extended to feature length.

It was also very clearly conceived as a found-footage movie before being retooled into a more traditional narrative, which rarely works as well as just doing a found footage movie.

It’d probably be better-received if he hadn’t already directed multiple masterpieces.

Speaking as someone who may or may not be connected to the production, Demonic was an experiment by Neill to see if he could shoot a micro budget feature for $1.5 million with a skeleton crew in August of 2020 (it was one of the first films in North America to start shooting after the pandemic shutdown).

The answer was yes, but not a very good one.
