[@giggles7179]

A couple of years ago, I read an account of the Titanic sinking as told by one of the survivors and with just one or two sentences, it ended up being the most terrifying detail about the event I'd come across: The survivor was in one of the lifeboats in the middle of the ocean and though one would think the hundreds of people that had been screaming was the worst thing to hear, their voices quickly died out. Instead, they claimed that shortly after the ship finally vanished beneath the surface, _they could actually hear the ship implode from beneath them._ I would have lost my mind. Knowing that it was a two-mile journey to where it came to rest doesn't help either. I do want to say the last time I mentioned the account there was somebody that spoke up and argued whether the physics of the story were accurate and that the ship or any part of it wouldn't have imploded. Thoughts, anyone?

[@Ydon23rising]

Cap

[@Deadpool_64]

That was legit scary. Very well done.

[@The_Story_Of_Us]

If I had to critique this artistically, I’d say you could make it scarier by showing less. Thalassophobia often is sort of encapsulated by the fear of the unknown and unseen, but when you see the monster it kinda takes the fear away a bit. So in that first bit instead of just appearing over the water almost in its entirety it could just be like 1 tentacle pops out and knocks the boat over and then when the guy falls into the water, you see like basically through the dark murky water almost just the blurry outline of it with the red eyes piercing through it.

[@Ditpo]

this. it's always scarier when they show you less, unfortunately too many self-acclaimed horror writers don't seem to understand this. the fear of the unknown for example is what made the original backrooms genuinely morbid and horrifying before the fandom came in and fucked it with levels and "steps"

[@ShadeSlayer1911]

@@Ditpo Backrooms fandom turned it into SCP. It was better when it was just the backrooms.

[@foxxy-3748]

Something similar to this that proves your point is JAWS. The shark animatronic in the original movie didn't work too well when underwater, so they only got a few manageable shots out of it. Steven Spielberg decided that the lack of actual shark footage was better for the film because it added suspense and enhanced the "fear of the unknown" to the audience.

[@ligmaguy521]

thalassophobia is encapsulated by the fear of large bodies of water, because thats what thalassophobia is. it's not meant to have monsters in it

[@jhibbitt1]

i was expecting the camera to turn away and then turn back to have cthulhu's head right next to the boat almost leaning in with no sound of it approaching. that would have made for a great jump scare

It's pretty good except Cthulhu is much larger and wouldn't be interested in a puny raft. If he killed you it's because he surfaced, took a look around, went back to sleep, and the tidal wave from him coming or going kills you.

[@tom23245]

The only thing I'll criticize is Cthulhu moves too quickly for it's size without enough environmental reaction. He would feel bigger if he moved slowly with heavy momentum, or moved quickly but the environment reacted accordingly. Like some "normal" movements at large enough scale would require supersonic speeds so imagine the wind, sound, and force that would create.

[@hahajwrjegghh1721]

The animation is inaccurate. According to the book, Cthulhu is green jelly thing that deforms every second and doesn’t really have a certain appearance. The man would also hear “Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn” really loudly and see everything around deforming.

[@Barely_Edited]

Isn’t the point of these horrors that they cannot be comprehended? Any representation would be inaccurate because humans cannot conceive of it There is no good depiction of Cthulhu but there is a popular culturally accepted one of big squid dude so that’s what you get

[@theeguy9022]

As the person above stated, it would be impossible for us to depict such a being in a standardized way like this. Witnessing an eldritch being like this would likely differ heavily for each beholder, their own understanding of the universe at large influencing how it comes into reality. Also, Nyarlathotep isn't done developing Elder God Photoshop yet, so the graphics would be hard to make

It's just a animation, of course it doesn't make sense cthulhu is even remotely here. Actually it could probably make more sense if the man wasn't eaten but just let see the monster, so he can convert and spread the word in the form of a cult. Anyways, it's a cool video.

[@BakedBunn]

@@blastard8980 I'm simply making an observation based on the context of the animation. It's art and art tells a story. I'm giving my opinion on what the story is presenting. Just because it's "just an animation" doesn't mean it can't inspire thoughts like how you've just made your own interpretation. It is a good animation, never said otherwise, but the idea (within the context of the animation like I stated in my original post) is a bit silly, at least in my interpretation, and I wanted to express that.
