The construction of the somewhat local pylons I have had the opportunity to drive past as a child always reminded me of big, smiling clowns. I also thought of them as robots that could uproot themselves from their spot and walk away, laughing happily. It helped me stop being so afraid of metal structures 😂 (I was terrified of all sorts of bridges and technical-electrical things. It was odd, to say the least 😂 the complexity of the build and internal wiring was what scared me, lol.)

This awakens a deep fear of mine... Whenever I used to travel by trains, I saw pylons all across the countryside. I used to imagine that pylons were some sort of sleeping, metallic lovecraftian creature that would attack the train and kill us all. Especially the pylons that had two of those pointed "horns" at the top. Those used to make me very anxious. The one-horned ones were fine though.

[@posteddupp]

wow, just wow

[@nyancat2221]

Well the thing is, junji ito didn’t know or understand typical horror. So, he went off of what he thought was scary. That’s why it’s even more horrifying to us. It taps in to exitential fear and plays with the unconventional, “out-of-left-field” horror because the creator who made it wasn’t influenced by the horror genre in the way everyone else has. Most are so desensitized that they romantically fantasize horror movie antagonists.
