Lost Tapes

...Is one hell of a fun show.

Yeah, I know. "Sandra, why would you watch a piece of crap mockumentary when you have to deal with ///It/// and Slender and Preston whaddufuck lol?"

Because. Distraction and staying light, remember?

And to all the people like "this isn't a horror movie Sandra"...seriously. Goddamn tall guy with no face and tentacles killing people. Where has the line between truth and fiction been drawn?

So, back to the show.

I was watching what looks like the last episode of season three (sob), and it was Reptilian. About underground lizard people societies (leave it to that to get us rolling our eyes while Slender stalks around on the lookout). But a few things got my attention:

1: When one of the reptilians was "killed", his body was laying in an awkward position that made his body look WAY too long,

2: The dead people were killed and wrapped in plastic bags, and, and hold on to your asses for this one,

3: One of the markings the reptilians drew on the wall was an Operator Symbol. With a crooked X.

In the words of one of our commenters on a previous post, "I shat a house".

Aside from that, we mostly lol'd at the thought of lizard people snatching yo' people up under the guise of a rave.

So, may favorite episode had to be....Wendigo.

BECAUSE THEY ROCK.

People turning into monsters after eating other people? AWESOME. Of course, that type of Wendigo isn't the type I'm familiar with from childhood.

Remember Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark? Yeah. Fall to your knees before the nostalgia.

Well, one of those editions had a story about a "Wendigo" that basically was a wind siren that dragged you away, caught your shit on fire, and dropped you. Portrayed as a sort of demon.

FUCK YES STILL AWESOME.

But still, that episode had some of the best effects, stellar acting, and managed to make you uneasy by use of a social taboo as subject matter. And since Wendigo psychosis is a proven thing, it makes it all the more realistic.

Wellup, I'm off to be stupid. LATER!
