      I understand what they were aiming for with the monster. A feral horror with human intelligence. That's what it ends up being, a creature that is more intelligent than the entire expedition.

      But the real heart of the series is the crew and for this reason the monster is little more than a footnote reference.

        I can totally understand why people wouldn't want it. Have the realistic, slow, miserable death by attrition without a bear fricking things up. It'd be kino as hell.
        However, put the emphasis on slow. People slowly getting frozen, losing digits. Slowly getting ill and dying from TB, pneumonia, so forth. Slowly getting ill from lead. Slowly losing their minds from the above and tedious monotony aboard a cramped ship. Eventually scurvy and starvation laying waste to the battered remains of the crew. If everything played out relatively the same, barring the manbearpig, the height of excitement would Carnivale and the mutiny.
        But then again, modern shit has turned so many into attention deficits who need quips and explosions every 30 seconds or they lose interest. Make of this what you will.

          Nah, frick that. Everything else was heightened by the tuunbaaq being ever present as a force. Fear of the unknown is a very important story element. If it was just cold and starvation as the main enemy, the show would have lost a huge part of the magic.

          For example, I would not have read the book if the monster wasn't in there. The monster is the hook, it's the backdrop to the entire story.

          I'm not saying it wouldn't have been good without it, but to say it didn't bring the story to new heights is just flatout wrong.

          The Tuunbaq creates tension and is an inherent part of the story that the characters operate around. The way it was done in the show wasnt particularly scary aside from when its not present but has left evidence, or its attempt to kill mr blanky on the boat, as it seems like the characters just stop giving a shit about it and have bigger problems, it also looks pretty creepy but not quite book level. They could've done more with the tuunbaq to make it actually appear scary and a large motivating factor haunting the crew, rather than the occasional violent scene interrupting the more interesting personal drama. Especially that scene in the masquerade like

            Shame they couldn't have played up the supernatural demon bear aspect instead of just having a smart dire maanbearpig. I understand having the show a bit more grounded because bagpipe ladies and a crazy psychic Irish family does sound a bit silly out of context.

    • 1 year ago

      The story still works perfectly if you take Tuunbaq as a regular polar bear (or multiple ones) stalking the crew for food, and the more supernatural aspects of it is just the series going "unreliable narrator" and showing you weird shit as if it was real due to every character going through starvation, lead poisoning, and sheer fricking terror and superstition making them see things that aren't there.

        But the characters had a meaning. One homosexual character, Hickey, represents predatory sexual appetites, like a coyote eating a rabbit, and this behavior permeated his whole identity beyond his impulses for sexual gratification, while the homosexual couple was basically a relationship of fraternity, protection and mentoring.

        While Hickey is shown emerging from the darkness fixing his pants, the other two characters never touch each other.

            There was a lewd hand caress as they passed the book. Asides from that, I thought they were just oddly close friends.

            he undertook the expedition to make sure franklin didn't die
            Franklin's niece tells him:
            >you can sniff my pusy if my uncle doesn't die to a polare bear
            and then franklin IMMEDIATELY dies in a ridiculous way leaving nought but a stockinged foot

            Crozier goes wild with the booze after that, but when he's forced to quit drinking he takes responsibility for the expedition.
            By the end of the series he's seen too much and the final shot captures it pretty well; he remains at his post to deal with whatever emerges from the ice next, and as penance for the lives lost under his command.

            His existence as Aglooka is far less complicated than his life as Francis Crozier

          It's true, dumbass. Why would he go back? Sole survivor is the second in command and lost the entire crew, the ships, etc. Assuming he survived the inquiries and court marshals, he'd be a pariah at best and he's Irish so they'd hate him all the more.

      he undertook the expedition to make sure franklin didn't die

      >you can sniff my pusy if my uncle doesn't die to a polare bear
      and then franklin IMMEDIATELY dies in a ridiculous way leaving nought but a stockinged foot

      Crozier goes wild with the booze after that, but when he's forced to quit drinking he takes responsibility for the expedition.
      By the end of the series he's seen too much and the final shot captures it pretty well; he remains at his post to deal with whatever emerges from the ice next, and as penance for the lives lost under his command.

      His existence as Aglooka is far less complicated than his life as Francis Crozier

              That is almost certainly what Crozier and one of the ship's doctors attempted IRL. In fact it's very likely they came within spitting distance (in relative terms) of civilization, there was evidence of them making it as far as 500 miles inland.

              Hodgson was in full copium mode for cannibalism by comparing it to his trip to a papist church and the eucharist, body of Christ, etc etc.. He was probably expecting human sacrifice and pedoshit since Anglicans wren't too fond of Catholicism at the time but he found it peaceful and enlightening instead.

            Well it's mostly just the Aubrey Maturin stuff from the film kicked up a few notches. There's passing mention of gay things happening on the ship, but Aubrey's approach is basically "well as long as they're not fricking me or the animals, I don't care." I know one of the antagonists in the later books is gay too, but I haven't gotten that far yet.
            I recommend the books to anyone who enjoyed the Terror for the boat setting. It's very comfy.

        I was so disappointed in the shows version of the carnival.
        I was hyping it up so much too.

        what the show really got wrong was the lighting. it's just a few points above pitch black during that sequence. imagine if the doctor's self immolation was the only thing lighting that scene.

        yeah, what was that whole
        >"cannibal satanist catholic eucharist"
        speech about anyways?

        It was not convincing to eat the meat, so what was its actual point?

        This one has a sort of complicated answer; in the book it is Crozier who relates the experience of attending mass with his catholic aunts and has en epiphany on the beauty of religious ceremony, and it's part of the foreshadowing of the great dripping priest crozier dreams about ultimately being the tuunbaaq selecting him as one of its shamans, because Crozier has psychic powers in the book.
        In the show I think it is pretty bold-faced meant to be about how tasty hodgkins thinks human flesh is because he's starving.

        you forgot
        >Hickey and his buddies get flogged fifty lashes each just for making manbearpig themed costumes and decorations for the Carnivale because Crozier was autistic about bear imagery

        I didn't forget I just ran out of room! Yeah the grand carnivale goes sideways specifically because Hickey and Manson make a life-size tuunbaaq puppet costume and this tricks all of the sailors into thinking the actual tuunbaaq isn't prowling around the dark rooms waiting to strike.

        >one of these rooms has the tuunbaaq just hanging around in the dark until it gets noticed, at which point it starts killing them.
        Genuinely frightening

        the tuunbaaq in general is just a much more interesting beastie in the book. that scene where it plays silence is extremely chilling because the guy who witnessed it knows he can't tell anyone
        a later scene where the tuunbaaq just goes 'frick this' and boards erebus and starts slaughtering fitzjames crew is the most grisly of all. it goes out of its way to mutilate and kill in the most horrid ways

        Also special mention for the rat man, a real life detail that the inuit who investigated the wreck before it sank swear by. In the book crozier himself revisits Terror, which managed to make some progress thanks to a skeleton crew sailing it through a thaw. they have sealed a mummified creature in crozier's quarters and when he exits the room he can hear the thing stirring in his bed. Crozier naturally blows up the terror with gunpowder.

            I've explained those fricking face chains so many times in the last 4 years I think I deserve some god damn gold chains for my face

            IRL one of the dead sailors had chains attached to his face. Crozier has much the same interaction with him in the book, you can deduce the guy was probably not right in the head having starved/eaten his friends/starved/scurvied/lead poisoned his way through the arctic for 3+ years. Personally I think he just wanted to be special and put some gold shit on his face.

            In the show there's a scene where Crozier has a one-off line stating 'After all this the men deserve gold medals' or something along those lines. I believe he says this to the same officer who later has the gold chains on his face.
            Having stated this point at least a dozen times I think it's kind of flimsy but it is the closest thing to a tangible explanation offered.

              I mean it's not necessary that he went crazy. This was the same officer that was loyal to Crozier amidst a group of mutineers from what I remember. Maybe they had enough of him and simply decided to punish him like that? Or the chains were a tool used to "keep awake" (i read that somewhere). Whatever it is, it has no answer since the real life situation was simply that - a guy was found by the inuits with chains on his face.

          >because Crozier has psychic powers in the book.
          do you think Hickey was also kind of special? Some of the men (admittedly very superstitious, but also despite having seen an actual supernatural monster) believed he was a devil; and he was the only one who got an insight into the nature of the Tuunbaq when it killed him
          I'm also 99% certain he was supposed to be kind of based on Judge Holden, being weird, pale, violent, dancing, widely infamous, pedo and moronfricker

            That's the implication of Hickey's final scene in the book; he's just such a completely rotten human being that even the Tuunbaaq doesn't want to eat him, or consume his soul. Hickey's final moments are freezing to death in a pinnace boat with magnus huddled at the other end, frozen to death and having built a small fort of bibles between himself and hickey.

            Hickey's also not an impostor in the book; he's a known lickspittle and shithead whom Crozier and most of the officers dislike, but he has friends amongst regular sailors whom he serves to ensure he's protected. He's described as being almost ridiculously small in stature.

                I'm evading the question because I didn't interpret it that way but I think you're on to something and I want to keep it in mind on my next read.

                I wouldn't be surprised if the description of dark spirits conjured by Silna and her ilk are reminiscent of Hickey
                >you set them loose to kill for you
                >if they don't achieve their task they turn on you and try to kill you
                sounds a lot like hickey in that he's generally inept and punishes others for it

            Season 2 is just a different show altogether. It does have one really standout shocking scene where a guy gets shot to death in front of his gf because he tried to lift some documents from an american concentration camp administrator; his GF is said American's assistant so she assumes he'll be lenient but the japanese guy gets unexpectedly killed just off screen and she screams in horror. That's the one scene that really stayed with me.

            Later on there's a scene at like area 51 or some shit? And the ghost is the ghost of someone's dead spurned wife or something? Season 2 was really odd and I'm fairly certain they just slapped the Terror label on another horror themed show to pump up hype.

    I've said it before, and I'l say it again: the book did the Tuunbaq much better, but its inclusion in the show was not detrimental. It didn't add much, but it plays such a small role in the overall ethos of the show that it's easy to look past its shortcomings.

    One problem with the show's portrayal of the Tuunbaq is that the book version doesn't translate to the screen well. How are you supposed to film a creature rising suddenly out of the ice, killing a bunch of people, then disappearing again? The Tuunbaq isn't a strictly physical being in the book, but its very hard to portray that on tv

      I wish John's death scene was more like in the book, where he sees two small dark stones in the snow, and is looking at them curiously when they blink. Before he can say anything to any of the Marines, the Tuunbaq erupts from the ice and slaughters everyone.
