    Nice post, it remembers me a quote from the cosmic horror movie Black Mountain Side (2014)

    “Deer God: When an animal looks up at the night sky, what does it see? Thousands and thousands of tiny points. Then a man looks up at the same points and sees millions of stars; galaxies, within which are billions of planets. Do you want to know what I see? Were you there when I created the stars?”

      Worth the watch? I see it doesn’t have great reviews but that’s not uncommon with Cosmic Horror since it tends not to have much in the way of resolution or typical story beats

        Don’t expect any big monster scene. It’s more like a paranormal thriller, but the atmosphere is something else. Especially the sounds effects, they get under your skin.

          That makes sense though. The horror of cosmic horror is often too nebulous for many audiences and reviewers. I get why that’s not to everyone’s taste, but that’s also just a staple of the genre
