I think analogue horror suffers the most from only being analogue horror when people do it. Just use it sparingly like the Ring or Poltergeist's static TV scenes. You don't have to make the entire movie someone wandering around pointing cameras at walls.

i could be wrong but i thought analog horror was just like, lovely horror made by children using badly painted things like the godzilla suit man or the jurassic park stuff. I don't really get it.

I’ve never felt older and less out of touch than when I watched Worlds Fair. That’s fine. It obviously does work for a different generation/experience than mine. But man I was lost.

the oldest ive felt is seeing a video of a young mom ranting on tiktok about her son getting sick, and having to pick him up because she's losing prime time for her only fans like BRUH

I'm watching Cemetery Man on Shudder. I have no idea what's going on but it's pretty awesome and looks great. Like a lot of good Italian horror movies it seems pretty much vibes based anyway so it's fine I guess.

Analog horror is basically younger people dealing with ghosts. Everything is recorded now and photoshopped and ai corrected and blah blah blah. Analog horror is like the last time ghosts could be accurately recorded. It’s this odd mix between using video editing tools to make something look old and real while also having that aesthetic feel more real. It’s also a throwback, I think in recognition that in the age of Isis and “what is happening” in Gaza that you can see far more horrific acts of violence than any horror movie. It’s interesting how so manny horror modern horror things like the backrooms start with an escape from our regular reality. You can’t have a movie about teens going to Crystal lake now and they don’t mention mass shooters because I’m sorry that’s the first thing that comes to mind. And I know celty will argue this, but it’s a realism problem that is even worse than cell phones. Realistically people will compare a one night serial killer to mass killers in modern times. So anyway I think analog horror is basically going back in time to find scary stuff when it was far easier to be scarier. Also ideas of the government collapsing that are more modern. And paranoia about the authorities sending fake messages.

Yeah those are good points. We'll probably see more and more stuff done in a similar way outside of horror too down the line for similar reasons.

I have a 9 year old nephew who is obsessed with analog horror; a lot of times he'll show me a video and be like "look at this, there's a ghost here!" so that's definitely part of it. Another piece of it that can be hard to accept is how ANCIENT stuff like VHS is to a kid. Like he showed me this one "haunted video" that was supposedly from 1997. I was 10 years old then, but to him that's the far off past. Like when I was a kid and would get spooked out about black and white ghost photos from the 70s.

The way I'd put it is, if you were young in the 90s: the 80s and 90s feel like they've become to now what the 50s and 60s were to the 80s and 90s, complete with all the sentimental mythologizing of the period. I guess that'd make the 2000s, and how fuckin tacky it could be, the new 70s? Jesus.

Yea sometimes I think about how crazy it is that when I watch an 80s horror movie, to a kid today that's like when my father would watch House of Frankenstein or The Beast From 20000 Fathoms when I was a kid. To them it seems like a relic from a bygone era, which actually can help a movie sometimes. When you're a kid, unearthing something from the past can be kinda scary on it's own aside from the movie itself. It doesn't look and feel like the movies kids are currently consuming so therefore it feels more "real" or more dangerous.

A lot of the very young kids I know don't seem to distinguish on this basis at all. They have so much access to older media, and their parents are so likely to have shown them a bunch of it, that they process the aesthetic differ without much reference to age. In the same way, the proliferation of "retro" games and the popularity of games that don't attempt hardware stretching photorealism means they don't care much about "graphics" and newness in the way my peers did as a kid.

Regarding analogue horror, I do get it - I still think there's real power in CRT TVs for more reasons than just nostalgia. It changes how things look and feel, and it's why I constantly have my own TV networks running that are fed to various TVs around the house. There's a transformative element there, and it's also why tape has come back; when something isn't quite as clear as you're used to it allows the imagination to fill in the gaps. A lot of little things connect to that as well - as a kid I would poke around the Super Smash Bros. Melee debug menu and would find it equal parts fascinating and unsettling, like you're seeing things you shouldn't be. The Test Map freaked me out because of how wrong it felt. I think that's a lot of the appeal there. I think kids just want there to be magic in the margins of the world.

Exact same way. I profoundly don't get it, at all, even conceptually. That movie might as well just be a diagnostic for how you relate to the internet. And yeah, the important part is that outside of discussions of the movie where this comes up, we don't really mention it. We're not screaming about kids these days, with them all going to their world's fair and listening to the rag time.

EMF you should share those directions you posted for creating a pro wrestling streaming channel; I dunno if you've ever posted it here and I imagine the ability to create your own curated horror channel would be pretty popular in this thread.
