"The Terror" TV Series (AMC) - "Underwater" Scene (S01E01)

[@Golgari213]

There are three antagonists in this show; the demon creature, the people themselves, and the physical landscape. Being able to portray horror within a natural environment is extremely clever and so realistic.

The hallucination of a human figure is common among arctic divers. There was even book written on the subject of these hallucinations. This series was a masterpiece.

[@mckenzie.latham91]

it’s also a call back to the man they lost earlier in the episode who fell overboard

[@williamm374]

@Carlo Canti It's caused by hydrogen narcosis. There is another effect called the Ganzfeld Effect. I will look for the book that emphasized the ghostly humanoid hallucinations. I think it was McCorristine, The Spectral Arctic. The producers of this series did an awesome job, it just amazed me the knowledge and insight in this series.

[@williamm374]

@Carlo Canti you are welcome. I don't know if it's hydrogen or nitrogen narcosis, or what causes it precisely. The book is online, I have to get back into it, but I hope it helps.

[@robertswitzer990]

William M An alternate name for nitrogen narcosis: rapture of the deep. Fitting name for the sickness and this clip in particular.

One of the sailors falls into the water which the diver tries to save but can’t, I don’t think it’s a hallucination

[@traceyalex1722]

Earlier in the episode, Mr Collins (the diver) was there when the man fell overboard, and was trying to help him. He would have dived in to try to save him if he hadn't been prevented. You can then faintly see the drowned man sinking under the water, arms outstretched. So in this scene, while it's terrifying enough to see a corpse floating towards you, it must have seemed especially personal to Mr Collins, maybe even vengeful. Maybe that's why he couldn't bring himself to tell anyone else what he saw.

[@palaqo1571]

I also think he's not really sure about what he just saw, hence why he tells nobody about this, to not appear like he's crazy since he would be the only one to have seen the body floating eventhough it could be real since the guy fell in the water earlier, and when asked he tells it felt 'like a dream'. Nice touch.

This is seriously masterclass stuff. The subtle nuances in the acting, the breathtaking sets and music, how well the cold is conveyed. Even if this lasts 1 season so lucky to have gotten it.

[@neuralmute]

It's only meant to last 10 episodes, because the Franklin Expedition didn't last very long. And even since finding the ships on the bottom of the Arctic Ocean, all we know for sure about the crew is that none of then survived. I expect this to be grim, bleak, and amazing.

[@madeincanada2373]

neuralmute the following seasons will focus on later expeditions and surrounding lore much like an anthology series assuming this gets picked up, which by the ratings it should. This season like you said is this specific expedition and so far, after finishing episode 4 its still top notch!

[@madeincanada2373]

Kyle Weiner where you hail from friend?

[@neuralmute]

More seasons of the search and the mystery would be fun, but I'm honestly happy just sticking with the contents of the book, and with the fate of the doomed Expedition. It's some of my favourite northern history (here's to living in Canada, a country that tries to kill you every winter, just like Crozier said!), actualy, some of my favourite Canadian history overall, and a damn good scary story on its own. I am loving the hell out of this series so far, possibly even more than the book. The sets and costumes are gorgeous, the acting is perfect, and so's the casting! As a history nerd, a horror geek, and a shipwreck buff, I'm so very hyped over this series!

I think the thing that gets me about this scene is that it isn't where it ends. Collins pops up throughout the rest of the show, his mental health progressively deteriorating after losing his friend and then seeing his body in the water. He tries to articulate his increasing sense of depression to Dr. Stanley, but gets told "Yeah, sorry, I can't really do anything with what you're telling me." It's so apparent that he's lonely and suffering really badly.

[@CoIdHeat]

Best scene of the whole series. As if it wasn’t terrifying enough to be lifted down into the endless deep, dark and ice cold sea with the very possibility that whatever shall hold you snaps and you’ll sink towards the bottom like a stone.

[@robinfoxer9702]

The scariest thing is that we don't know what it was. Maybe it's a hallucination of Collins, maybe it's really the corpse of a drowned sailor, or maybe it's a northern spirit that warns of further danger...​@@kuskuskus1212

[@LordSeethe]

The figure in the water is the corpse of the diver's friend, who fell into the water a few days earlier and died. The diver wanted to jump into the water to save his friend, but was held back by others on board, who knew it would be suicide. Wracked by guilt and fear, you can think of it as if the diver hallucinated the whole event, especially with the presence of lead poisoning in their food, but I like to think that the sight of his friend was a genuinely supernatural, inexplicable event without any logical answers or scientific reasoning. Men just don't belong that far North, and the magic that resides in those climates are the same types of magic that will warn you to stay out, or kill you if you venture closer. His friend may not have been "angry" at the diver for leaving him to his death, but it almost seems as if the floating corpse is in deep sorrow, and wants to return back to the boat with the living, almost as if he doesn't know he's supposed to be dead. He could have been trying to warn his diver friend, or he could have been trying to get revenge. He could have been trying to grasp onto his diving friend, the same way a drowning man grasps anything nearby to help him keep alive. Or, perhaps, he could have been trying to drag his friend to his death as well, so he would not have to spend eternity alone in the frozen seas. I think that the drowned friend is destined to swim forever in the unforgiving North, dragging explorers foolish enough to enter the water into a watery grave. In fact, now I am almost certain that he would have dragged his diving friend down to his death if he had somehow managed to catch him before he was pulled up. The corpse hadn't simply floated all those miles to appear at that exact moment by mere coincidence. The corpse had swam.

​@@Edax_Royeaux According to wikipedia, delirium and hallucinations are common effects of acute lead poisoning.

[@williamlowry3131]

@@Edax_Royeaux Also from wikipedia: "Poisoning by organic lead compounds has symptoms predominantly in the central nervous system, such as insomnia, delirium, cognitive deficits, tremor, hallucinations, and convulsions." If we're talking about the show, then it's obvious the lead was contained in the cans since the monkey started going mad about a day after goodsir let him eat out of one of the cans, and was perfectly healthy before. If we're talking about what actually happened, while the theory of the lead-infected tin cans was indeed abandonned for the lead water supply idea, that theory was also subsequently abandonned. Again from wikipedia: "More recent chemical re-examination of bone and nail samples taken from Hartnell and other crew members has cast doubt on the role of lead poisoning.[6] A 2013 study determined that the levels of lead present in the crew members' bones had been consistent during their lives, and that there was no isotopic difference between lead concentrated within older and younger bone materials.[106] Had the crew been poisoned by lead from the solder used to seal the canned food or from the ships' water supplies, both the concentration of lead and its isotopic composition would have been expected to have "spiked" during their last few months.[6] This interpretation was supported by a 2016 study that suggested the crew's ill health may in fact have been due to malnutrition, and specifically zinc deficiency, likely due to a lack of meat in their diet.[6] This study used micro-X-ray fluorescence to map the levels of lead, copper and zinc in Hartnell's thumbnail over the final months of his life, and found that apart from during his last few weeks lead concentrations within Hartnell's body were within healthy limits.[107] In contrast, levels of zinc were far lower than normal and indicated that Hartnell would have been suffering from chronic zinc deficiency, sufficient to have severely suppressed his immune system and left him highly vulnerable to a worsening of the tuberculosis with which he was already infected.[108] In the last few weeks of his life, his illness would have caused his body to start breaking down bone, fat and muscle tissues, releasing lead previously stored there into his bloodstream and giving rise to the high lead levels noted in previous analysis of soft tissues and hair.[6]"

Ever since I read "Buried in Ice" as a kid, I've been morbidly fascinated with the Franklin Expedition. Great to see a drama about it, even if it does have fictional elements.

Me too!

[@user-vi3tb3bw5t]

@@darkmauler5091 This is based on the novel of the same name by Dan Simmons which was written as a fictionalized piece. Fantastic book too.

@@loveslunatics6616 clearly you've never read it. Literally judging a book by its cover. Actually in this case, not even it's cover, just based on the fact that it's non fiction. What a sad sack you are.

[@SomeNordicMan]

This is one of the most horrofing scenes in film history and that music is just perfect for the atmosphere

[@joshbates9015]

I've had the opportunity to wear one of those old diving helmets. Even without it being fully sealed up by the diving suit, it's damn near impossible to hear anything outside of it. I just get a chuckle out of thinking that Captain Franklin's final words of encouragement for Mr. Colins before he went down were nothing more than a muffled warble to him 🤣🤣🤣

2:29 that music note is pure perfection

Binged this show in 2 days when it came out, was the best thing on TV that year.

[@hotrods27]

The entire series was gripping. One of the best TV has produced.

[@_blackheartemoji_2189]

So glad I stumped across this on KZbin. Just started my binge and honestly this is so much better than anything trending on Netflix rn.

[@LORDSHIPICKLE]

This show has such an incredible first season (not that the second one is bad but the first one is just so good)

[@sunilanand1007]

It was supposed to be one season. Since the Terror was one of the actual ships along with the Erebus.

[@eddynewcastle663]

My favourite sequence so far ! Really creepy and crepuscular ! I think when Collins said dream he meant a nightmare.

[@gumbug]

I had no context (still dont) before watching this scene, it was one of those things that just pops up in your recommended. but jesus christ is this well done. you really get the sense that theres something in the water with him, the sea that we see is vast and expansive. yet the icebergs still give me a mild sense of claustrophobia. at 2:14 i get what i think may be a POV shot, it could have not been intentional but i got that vibe from it. its very eerie and, of course, it feels like something is right behind him. and then the body itself: the music gets slightly louder, which amped the effect for me. and the appearance of the body is so well done. its clear that its human, but just far enough, just blurry enough, i can barely make out a face. it lets my imagination run wild. as another comment stated, it perfectly captures that raw terror of knowing that if something isnt done, that thing will brush against you, that thing will touch you. i really liked this and i kind of want to watch the whole thing now. on another not so scary note: this may just be me cause im a sucker for character design and historical dress, but i adore the costumes in this scene.

[@marianolazaro3758]

This is one of the most powerful scenes in the series

[@FuttBuckerson]

This soundtrack on its own provides the most suffocating, anxiety-ridden cold and hopeless feeling in me. Just perfectly done. You can feel the despair in your soul.

[@J1ngzz]

Saw this scene in an ad and wanted to see it ever since, thx for uploading it!

[@tacticalministries3508]

"Brutus, should we go sailing?" "Excellent idea Caesar"

[@johnmurdoch3083]

Probably one of the best single little scenes in the show..and a geat character moment for the captain and his right hand man.

[@stark1987]

i love the opening to this show, the sundogs, auroras, ice, i genuinely feel cold watching it

[@norwegianblue2017]

This and Chernobyl are the best miniseries I have ever seen. Absolute masterpieces.

[@charlesc2095]

This show is the very best example of perfect casting.

[@ImaNecron]

Maaaan I want a Cthulhu mythos film film/show like this. I had little context for this scene and it was cool.

[@Hakman78]

Man this was such an awesome show. Set in the perfect time period between industrialization and exploration. I never got around to watching the second season but I heard it was good.

[@codyhathaway7715]

One of my favorite shows ever, sad it was so short, wasn't a fan of the next series they did. This show was fantastic all the way through.

Yes this moment was scary, but the music really sets the mood

The thing I love about the show is yes there is some type of a monster in it but at the same time it's more of a psychological mind fukk as well and that makes it even more horrific

[@xlDeathlxJosey]

Amazing fact. This show was shot on a stage in Budapest. All you see is Special effects. The dive scene was also shot on a stage. All around him is CG. Makes this more amazing.

[@tex2383]

I had no idea this was a series. The book was utterly fantastic. I highly recommend it, and I hope this show is at least 1/2 as good as the book was.

To see something unbelievable and keeping it to yourself , especially while doing something no one in history. All while being in the middle of nowhere must be extremely lonely and terrifying

[@Hellman2746]

This clip alone inspired me to watch the series when it was uploaded. And now I'm bugging everybody to watch this. Some critic "praised" this as a slow burner but he is wrong. I felt like I was reading an atmospheric Edgar Allan Poe novel while watching this. A sense of dread and gloom pervades you when watching it. And it's utterly entertaining.

[@aunch3]

Henry Hudson’s crew saw mermaids in the arctic, looking for the same cursed NW passage. They wrote about it in their diaries like it was nbd; clearly they were hallucinating but it goes to show people see strange things up there

[@NoMoreNever]

"You're a pilgrim to the deeps and remember, God lies in all realms." That choice of words is probably meant to sound reassuring but if I were in Mr. Collins' place, I would feel as if I am about to trespass into an unknown realm and there is no God down there that can help you.
