So... Sony Made A Spider-Verse Horror Short...

During the same month as the ORIGINAL release date of Spider-Verse: Beyhond The Spider-Verse, we instead are getting a little Spider-Man short. nd this is not abnormal for Sony Pictures Animation - having done it for the likes of Hotel Transylvania and The Smurfs. But this time, we're steeped with horror tones, and backed by a chairty campaign that wishes to tackle mental health issues in young people. At first this little project just seemed like some nice extra spider content. But now, it's looking to be some genuine heroism, feltin the real world as well. And it all started as Sony Made a Spider-Verse Horror Short...

...But tell me what tiny details. Imissed!

[@DazzReviews]

So what details in the short did I miss, beyond the mirror..?

[@_Rajh_]

First?

[@caracol764]

There's a foreshadowing to the paralysis demon on the television: everything turns red, the killer's silhouette becomes dark and his eyes are bright orange. I also realized that there's some references to Arachnophobia(1990): spiders spreading across his body and coming out of his mouth

[@amethystclouds]

The dialogue is pretty foreshadowing like "Ah man, I'm bugging" and the horror movie itself mirroring what was going to happen.

[@lukebeer7778]

It takes place before Across the Spider-Verse because Miles is still wearing his suit from Into the Spider-verse.

[@OffBrandLNFan]

I know you prob won't see this but there is a spelling error in the description

[@Molonara]

The mask is cracked the same way his world’s Peter’s mask was cracked before he was killed.

[@jzombie1744]

I like how the world around is constantly blurred when it begins, Miles feels like he's living in an illusion. I feel like something a lot of people forget is that Miles was infected, yes he was given powers, amazing ones, but he's still the victim of a multiversal threat, part of a community that is destined to always lose those they love, no matter what. And Miles has his demons, the spider within, and he feels like he's being poisoned from the inside, because in a way, he is.

[@Jonathan_Collins]

Oh man this is SO GOOD! It's crazy to think that Beyond the Spider-Verse was supposed to come out this week. 😭 Gotta love the classic "hero fights his adversary within the confines of his own mind" story. The manifestation of one's anxiety can be scary.

[@changingpeopleslivesmoon2993]

Agreed

[@vestigex]

wait why didnt it?

[@Subarubdub]

@@vestigexDelays pretty obviously, I think it had to do with how the animators were being time crunched and mistreated by Phil and Chris. It sucks that that happened to the animators and we won’t be getting it as soon as we thought but I think it’s in early production rn

[@Subarubdub]

Oh there’s also the whole writers strike thing that was happening as well

[@vestigex]

@@Subarubdub that sucks😒

[@shealupkes]

I especially appreciate that the short doesn't explore the conversation or pretend it magically got rid of miles' sleep paralysis demon because I get the impression the director knew a) it didn't matter exactly what they talked about as long as it was about miles' troubles and b) talking about your issues doesn't make them go away it just makes them visible and comprehensible which is a far more realistic and useful expectation

[@InvasionAnimation]

You answered the question. Animation is better than live action in almost every way. The amount of cgi to make a live action version of Across the spiderverse would have made everything look ridiculous.

[@officialrauhN]

@@InvasionAnimation Beyond the spiderverse will be live action

[@ShadyPaperclips]

I'm pretty sure this animated short was shown at Film Festivals before the release of Across The Spider-Verse. So it's not exactly new, it's just that's it's only now being shown to the wider audience on KZbin/Social Media.

[@Readyornothidin]

You're right, it initially premiered at Annecy Film Festival in France from their LENS program and KLF !!! 👍👍👍

[@thesheepjones9352]

I was soooo confused, I already saw this a while ago and liked it, I didn't understand why everyone was acting like it's new or if I was actually going insane

[@bad-girl-coventhe-owl-club1119]

It's so deep and emotional. It scared me the first time I watched. Miles and his dad used to sort of disconnect but they know in heart that they always love each other. Miles chose to talk to his dad when suffering the inner pain. That's really inspirational.

Yeah its in between itsv and atsv

[@carlosgonzalezfernandez3806]

The most horrific part its how much it took the animators to make it

[@Rembreiker_lychec9257]

This is so cool, they should make a feature film in this animation style. Whoever made the idea of Miles' nightmare when he sees dark shadows of himself. Deserves an Oscar from giving us big goosebumps.

[@darshansooful9559]

Yeah, a feature film in this animation style would be sick. It could be about a bunch of Spider-Men from different universes or something

[@a.jthomas6132]

Since Mile did mentioned the "one girl" to his father, I hope Gwen learns her mistakes and maybe reconciled their relationship in Beyond the Spiderverse. Of course she needs to earn Miles' trust again in her since he is both hurt and mad in his own personal perspective. there gonna be rough patches along the way.

[@ravennalovecraft421]

I hope she does more than just say "my bad, I missed you though" cuz she was a bit useless throughout the second film lol. A slap on the wrist isnt ideal, cuz she honestly let The Spot get away the first time because she wanted to fk around and waste time

Weird to think that Beyond the Spider-Verse was supposed to be released this weekend

[@GwendolynRiddle]

Spiderverse is my absolute 1# favorite movie series. Ever, of all time. Something i noticed also is part of the paralysis sequence took place in a train, and i wonder if that's calling back to the first film with miles and kingpin, it also legitimately scared me without feeling "cheap" which is my problem with a lot of horror, it also made me decide mabye i dont want sleep paralysis lol (Theres context but thats for my therapist)

[@ra_i_am_ra]

Why did they ruin it with horror?!

[@plasmaemerald8407]

I love how the short PERFECTLY coveys it’s message. The darkness is the embodiment of Miles negativity energy, his inner demon. As he tries to fight it he realized he can’t do it physically. He needs mental health. It’s no villain, it’s reality. The strongest enemy, and I LOVE IT!✨🔥

[@nathankellogg2640]

It's not about horror it's about mental health.

[@lovelaceackah216]

The Spider within has to be my favorite shorts next to For the birds, You’re friend is a Rat,Salesman Pete this has to be one I enjoyed I love the ideas of mental the animation is always top notch also horror elements with the visuals is really I dig and it’s very cool

[@anthonybarber3220]

It’s night and day to compare this to Madame Web. I’m tired of Sony being unable to make a decent Spider Man spinoff. Especially when compared to the main hero himself.

[@jokerface8636]

I think this before across the spider verse because Miles wears his into the spider verse suit in the frames of him getting beat up at the beginning

[@TheRibottoStudios]

So someone on that team was CLEARLY very inspired by Legend of Korra cause this is the exact plot to I think season 4 where she had to deal with a literal physical manifestation of herself in the Avatar State after having nearly been killed by Zaheer's Airbending. And I mean that in the best possible way. I think WHY these types of stories always work best as horror based, is because it's those parts of you that you DON'T like confronting that make these other versions so terrifying. That fear manifests in different ways-for Miles it's a shadow version of himself. For Korra, it's herself at her most powerful, but going solely off instinct to survive. Unleashed. Unbalanced. Unhinged. And that thought alone...what we are capable of when we are pushed past our limit? It's enough to give anyone nightmares.

One detail I only noticed while watching your video was Miles' notepad on his desk has a drawing of Stan Lee with RIP underneath.

Wait what?! I got to watch the movie to see it now

[@pylotjoe6430]

I personally believe that this takes place before Across the Spider-verse. The spider costume shown in the background is from Into the Spider-verse. I feel like they are trying to show when this takes place with the costume choice. 0:48

[@vismaykedilaya1318]

I didn't fully understand the fundraiser, but miles's inner demons/memories feel exactly like those I'm currently experiencing. Miles has always been my favorite superhero, bc never have i related more for a hero than Ms. Marvel (but that was just the show being a slice-of-life show and me being Indian). I swear my parents are like this, and I try to tell them, but not only do they misunderstand what I'm trying to say and what's going on, but I don't fully understand what's going on, and I look to stuff like this to ig make my feelings tangible. I like how they're not shown as evil monsters. Jeff is just a nice dad, and he's honestly perfectly justified for him to be mad at Miles, but the problem is the consequences that has on Miles's psyche, consequences he barely knows about. I wish i could tell my parents what I'm going through without just breaking down into tears and rage. Damn, i didn't expect to post this on a reaction video to a Spider-man short film of all things. Oh well, it's out there. the internet already knows.

[@knepperstudios1024]

I have a theory that in Spider Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, Miles will reveal his identity to his universe because it will show that he's different from the other spider people. Also since he was struggling to balance both lives and he would want to let everyone know what's going on. He could also beacon the Spot towards him so he could defeat him once and for all.

[@SpiderGoblin2012]

I love how between this short and a certain sequence towards the end of MSM2, that we're really delving into the Persona-esk style of discussing Mental health and how we view ourselves and our struggles. Now I'm not saying that the short necessarily took inspiration from Persona (though considering Yuri Lowenthal was in two of those games, I would like to think that played a role in MSM2), but this type of stuff is why I love those games, and seeing Spidey tackle it in a similar way is a dream come true for me

[@AntsTheaterCorner2698]

This short basically proved that Sony Animation is capable of handling an R-Rated animated Spider-Man film after Beyond the Spider-Verse. It's also a welcome PSA on anxiety attacks and how they are no joke. It's more common than one would believe and it's great to see Sony Animation handling it with maturity and sincerity.

No it demonic horror fear spreading

[@shanerulez79]

Lots of Spider-Man villains are horror oriented. Why do you think Sam Raimi did such a good job directing his trilogy

[@PlayfulGeniusEducation]

Spreading such fear is incredibly harmful. Many argue, "But the intent of the film is to raise awareness about mental illness and aid." However, certain regions of your brain fail to distinguish between fiction and reality, allowing fear and demonic imagery to infiltrate your psyche as though you've lived through it firsthand. This is detrimental for both youngsters and adults alike!
