Hidden in the branches of the poison tree of souls
It's poison creosote/Larrea tridentata, ya yankee bastards...
It's creosote you dumb fricking moron kys immediately
It's really weird they went for this eldritch shit while simultaneously dealing with real world issues like corrupt politicians and child trafficking
thats not weird at all, those things usually go hand in hand, especially in modern cosmic horror settings, you really need to read more and watch more and stop assuming your very limited view is a good litmus test to try and judge things with
It's not weird at all. It was handled extremely well and effectively in the show.
final episode sucks
filtered
one of the least interesting villains in television history after an entire season of build up
I felt as though that were the point. It wasn't so much about him as it was about the greater forces of evil at work.
Couldn't disagree more. Never once did I feel it was tacked on. Always felt it to be adequately interwoven with the more true to life crime stopping. There's a really nice ambiguity to it. It's not a perfect show like some people seem to think but it does an excellent job handling its themes and creating a cohesive narrative with some kind of philosophy to it.
>it was supposed to suck
they clearly were building up to something that the writers thought was going to shock us. and the scene where they show him stand up and reveal his scars after talking to the black detectives, you can tell they thought that was kino.
I don't think they were trying to shock. Shock is cheap. I would agree with you if their intention was to make Childress the Yellow King, but he is not the Yellow King and he's the least interesting/least important part of the final encounter. I do agree the "reveal" scene was quite silly and even a bit cliche, though.
>clearly my headcanon is real!
why do you schizos always judge shows based on what you assume the creators meant when you have no proof of that other than your own moronic ramblings
>noooo you can't have your own interpretation of media you have to have an eceleb tell you what your opinion should be!
thats not what that anon is saying at all, you really are moronic
Not really. It felt tacked on outside the first or second episode. It was a le ambiguous copout because they were afraid to insinuate politicians being that malicious
wrong and the show flat out says politicians are malicious you absolute moron, like seriously you have to be dumb as a brick
>Edwin Tuttle is a goddamn Senator of this state
>FBI covers it up
I ignored that part of his post, but yeah. Pretty baffling conclusion to come to when the show quite literally spells out for you just how rotten the network of "elites" are.
>muh chutclly tentatcles didn't touch my boner during the climax
I don't really remember seeing it in lovecraft per se. Can you give me a sotory with that tematic to freshen my memory?

societal corruption as result of lovecraftian Black folk
>It's really weird they went for this eldritch shit while simultaneously dealing with real world issues like corrupt politicians and child trafficking
babby's first lovecraft?
in all of lovecraft's stories, societal decay is directly tied to external forces corrupting the society.
Corrupt politicians, occultist police, miscegenation, incest, etc etc caused by dark corrupting beings
no it’s not
in most of his stories this theme couldn’t even be present
go back
Really weird indeed, my nooticer friend
It's the most realistic part.

the shadow at the bottom of the world is quality
because they only sprinkles those stuff throughout the show and makes it ambiguous if they are even real, it's the perfect way to include them, something that other seasons should've done too

>wanna see my penis little priest?
His scars weren't that bad, you could barely notice them. And the green ears should have been him wearing the green earmuffs he used when mowing lawns.
I was definitely expecting them to be green ear protectors too.

Are there other cosmic horrorish stories involving governament corruption and stuff done like true detective in modern times? Lovecraft is great and all but I fell his stories develop more through individual corruption instead of organized depravity. Other than some cultist in one story or the other, and even so
shadow over innsmouth you Black person
I know, but the conspiracy aspect in that story is only in the back, mentioned by one of the characters, it is not lived by the protagonist. In the end it becomes more monster horror than anything else. In lovecraft the string pulling is never the center of the story, the focus is aways the unveiling of a mysterious race or monster by a individual protagonist. Take the shadow out of time for exemple: the great race of Yith are time travelers mind controlers, there could be major conspiracy stories involving them, but the story is it self just some guy experiencing the powers of the creatures. Do you understand what I mean?
play the TTRPG Delta Green, it is exactly that
but in terms of movies: Annihilation, The Kill List and The Empty Man are kind of the closest to it, The Leftovers hits a lot of the same vibes but is done through a lense of abrahamic faith and is much more hopeful and optimistic
also the video game Blood Borne
